safety in tlie water, and the monkey
afraid of the water, exerts himself to
the uttermost not to be drawn into it
As a rule, the gcosc draws the monkey
into the water, and then the cunning
simian sits astride it the goose, in
equestrian fashion The goose then
tries to dive, and the monkey pre

That Deadly Parlor Rifle.
A very sad and distressing arci
dem occurred over in Suniter oa
Wednesday, which resulted in the
death ol" .Mrs. W. .1. Benjamin, a
young married lady, who leaves a
husband and four little children.
Mrs. r.enjaniin was tidying her home
on west Hampton Avenue, and
in some manner knocked over
a 22 calibre parlor rifle. The rifle
discharged and the ball entered .Mrs.
Benjamin's neck, under the chin,
death resulting in a few seconds.
There are scores of homes in Orange
burg county, where a similar acci
dent may happen any day by the
knocking over of the deadly parlor
rifle carelessly left in some corner.
