Chief Turkish City in Armenia Taken l(y Russian Assaults. Ky.erum, Turkeys chief city in Arme nia, Is in the hands of the Russians. Heavy assaults hy the Russians against the long line of detached forts protecting the city, lasting hut u |k> rlod ?>f tlve dayH ami described hy (irand l>ukc Nicholas, the Russian commander In chief, as "unprece dented," have resulted In the capture of ?lr> fortress. Unofficial Vcpoiis early In the pres ent month sttitl the German Field Marshal von 1 >er (Jolt/, with KO.OOO men, was besieged in the cit> with provisions for only a fortnight. The capture of Kzerum is consider ed of great strategic Importance. From It radiate roads leading In all directions. Over those to the South cast ami South It will he possible for the Russians now to fight their way toward their compatriots o|>eratlng I against the Persians and Turks in j Northwest and West Persia, or proceed south toward Bagdad, to the relief of [the British bottled up In Kut-el-Mara, Cn the Tigris, southeast of Bagdnd. The Immediate effect of the Rus sian victory on the situation in Persia an,(J Mesopotamia Is problematical, however, for despite the roads the country is ipountainous and there is Still something over 2(H) miles to be covered before the Lake Crumiah dis trict of Persia Is reached, and over GOO miles before a junction with the Rritlsh at Kut-el-Amara could be form ed. While the advent of stormy weather on the Western battle line the heavy fighting of the past few days seemingly lias simmered down again to artillery bombardments and mining operations. Berlin reports, however, that the Bri tish and French have endeavored to recapture trench positions taken from them by the Germans, respectively south of Ypres and in Champagne, near Tabu re. but that the attacks foiled. Paris asserts, on the contra ry. that near Tahure the French have retaken ]K>rtioi:s of their former t renehes. The British and Germans arc still at deadly grips for possession of the trenches captured from the British southeast of Ypres, artillery and hand grenades being employed In the fight ing. London reports that In the at tack in which the British lost 600 yards of a front line trench the (ler mans attacked over a front of 4.0(H) yards, but were everywhere repulsed with considerable losses except at the point the trench was captured. On the Russian front a driving snow storm along the entire line has almost stopped operations. The usual bom bardments, interspersed with infantry attacks, continue on the Austro-Ital ian line. Willie Harrin, a negro, 112 years old. was killed Friday by Guard C. T. Richburg while attempting to escape from the state reformatory for colored youths in tbe Dutch Fork section of Richland county. FINE WAS COLLECTED Solicitor Cobb Makes Explanation of the Joe English Case. The Chronicle Is in receipt of tbe foliun >i<K communication from Solicitor Cobb which explains Itself and we glad ly give space to this explanation: Editor Camden Chronicle: There ap pears in this week's issue of the Chron icle under the heading "Will Not Ho Returned" a statement with reference to Joe English which I wish to cor rect. Tbe inference to be drawn from tli/' statement is that the State receded from lt^ position in attempting to briii*; English back to South Carolina, when, as a matter of fact, tbe case was adjusted and there remained no necessity to bring him back. .foe English was convicted of ^selling whiskey and sentenced by Judge Mem mlnger to pay a tine of two hundred uollftrs or serve a sentence upon tbe chain gang. Before the trial English bad secured bond and bad left the state and consequently was tried In his ab sence. He was located in Worcester, Massachusetts, and on my application for requisition the Governor of South Carolina made demand ujkui the Gov ernor of Massachusetts for him, the re quisition was honored and when oth cers of that state went to arrest him he resisted and as a result thereof was sentenced to imprisonment. I^ast fall just before the expiration of his sen tence his lawyers took up with me the matter of withdrawing the requisi tion. which I declined to do unless the fine was paid, and after some corres pondence on tbe subject the fine of two hundred dollars was sent me and I thereupon sent the same to Mr. James II. Clyburn, the Clerk of Court, and Kershaw County was In two hun dred dollar*. I will thank you to make this state ment for me. W. Hampton Cobb, Solicitor Fifth Circuit VOl Mi MAN RAIMA WOI NlMttK j Serious Shooting Affray Ore tirrod Near Itethune Saturday Night. I llWliuiii' S. (\, Feb 17 Last Sat urda> night about S o'clock, Dave Nil ton. th?> IP year old sou of Mr 1> S Hilton, <>f the Tlmrod section, was shot and | terha ps fatally wounded by Mr, Daniel (iraham. a substantial farmer of thm community. From what we can i learn <>f the affair It Is about as fob! lows Report hits It that l>a\e Hilton ha<l been paying attention to the l-l year old daughter of (iraham, to which the latter objected. < >n Saturday night (iraham, his son, Dude Hilton, Have Hilton, white men. and three negroes. Lon Norton, Auk Horton and John l'ate. were returning home fioni lb thuue and when near Mr (irahatn's home a dispute arose between Have Hilton and the younger (iraham. Mr. Daniel (iraham told the former and his companions who were on a wagon, to go on home and keep away from his house Young Hilton made some kind of sharp retort when Mr. (iraham Jerk ed him from the wagon and a pistol was tired, the ball entering Hilton's head jnst above the ear. Hilton was carried to a Columbia hospital Sunday morning for an operation and he is still there and the last report from him is that he is in a serious condition. The two (iraham's Dude Hilton and the tlir?H? colored men were all arrest ed Sunday morning and placed in jail at Camden. We learn that Mr. Daniel (iraham stated since being put in Jail that he alone is n>sponsihle for the shooting of Hilton. Henry Stephens, a young white man. who has been totally blind for several years past. Sid Sheorn, another white man, and Henry Hunter, a negro, were arrested and lodged in the guard house here late last Saturday afternoon for selling blind tiger whiskey. During the night Stephens and Sheorn broke a hole In the side of the brick guard house and escaped. Now, the j>olnt about this Is that the parties must have had outside help or either Bethune has an awful sorry calaboose. Hill Sellers, a well-known colored man around this town, was here Satur day evening, and proceeded to get "full." Becoming a little noisy Bill was instructed to go home by police man Brannon. Not exactly liking the officer's dictatorial manner. Bill sug gested that he attend to his "d ? busi ness," consequently be got "run in." The "spelling bee" given by the La dies Aid Society of the Presbyterian church, at the town hall on Friday night last, was an unqualified success. A large crowd was present and all greatly enjoyed the occasion. Prof. Banks, principal of the Bethune high school, was "captain" of one side and Mrs*. A. B. McLaurin of the other. About twenty persons were chosen on each side, one of the contestants being Miss Dana McSween, an old lady near ly K4 years of age. Mr. J. N, .McLau rin acted as school master and after an hour or two of spirited spelling from the old blue back spelling book, Prof. Banks' side won ? Miss Malinda Ward, one of Bethune's brightest school girls, having the honor of spelling the last word and was therefore presented the prize, a box of handsome station' cry. It has been known here for >n> time that pocket blind tigers have been operating !? t!:4.:-; m-? lion, i>ut as they i the tiger) are rather shy in their ne farious business, it is a difficult mat ter for the officers to catch them.

For that reason, If for no other, tho picture ought to prove popular with your cus tomers. ' "There is another reason, however, ami that Is the picture itself. The lirst episode was shown here last night at a private exhibition to' the now spa per reporters, some exhibitors* and members of the Pathe force here, and everyone pronounced it one of the very strongest o|H>nlng episodes they had ever seen. "The photography Is tine, the acting Is up to the usual high standard of a Pearl White. Sheldon Lewis, Croighton Hale east, and. what is more, the pic ture Is right there with "tho punch", from the first scene to the last, it holds your interest to a very remarkable de gree. and It Is the writer's candid opinion that a person who sees the llrst episode will, unless prevented bv some unforseen circumstances over which he has 110 control, most certainly see the second, and each follow ing ones. "We want Camden to have the honor of opening the run of'The Iron Claw" in this territory, and wish to advise that we can give you any day the op ening week. The picture is released on February 2Mb. Trusting that we may have the pleasure of hearing from you regarding Camden's own serial."

According to the police Dalrymple ad mitted the' second identification as readily as he did the first. He was arrested as a suspicious character last night and taken to detective head quarters where a circular tolling of the big estate waiting for him was un earthed. Prisoner Broke Jail. Sam Taylor, a negro, who has been confined in the county Jail for several weeks, charged with stealing cotton, made his escape Thursday night by sawing a steel bar. Taylor is suppos ed to have had outside help, and his wife, Jane Taylor, is suspected of pass ing him a saw from the outside. The prisoners were all locked In the cells Thursday night except Taylor, who had climbed on top of the cage and hid himself. When everything became still he left through the window. He described r.s u nuiiniin. aged L'l, height (J feet, weight 175 or 18<) pounds. Wore blue overall suit, black velvet cap. His wife left with him and they are supposed to be trav eling together. The jail lias no fence or wall around the yard and it is an easy matter for anyone to pass a saw to a prisoner from the outside. Nothing ha-* l>een heard of Taylor since bis escape. Sheriff Huckabee offers a reward of $'25 for his capture. Bishop Gtierry to Preach. The Rt. Kov. William A. fJuerry.

Hhvi1 you noticed that many of tin* newspapers have the look of old pa pers that have been laying around un til they hove grown yellow? This up I't'iinimr is owing to tho lack of dye stuffs that have been about exhausted ii ml a now supply of which cannot bo obtained, owing to the war in Kurope. A recent shipment of bland news re ceived by The Chronicle Ik of a de cided yellow and our readers will no lice the difference. The average man would wonder what sort of dyestuff was needed to make paper white, but If he investigated the matter he would lind that the pajwr upon which his news is printed is not white when it is first made, but a sort of light wood color. An application of blue dye is made to it that turns it the white tint that has ? heretofore al \ t ways b<H*n used. This bluing cannot lie obtained now, and as the supply of white paper is nearly exhausted in the country the yellowish looking material Is being used. i ne bluing used for whitening the | no per cnnie from Germany, as did so many other dyestuffs that were used In this country, and It is impossible to get It any more until there Is a ces sation of hostilities among the warring nations. Many papers, in consequence, are be -nmlng "yaller Journals," in spite of themselves. WILL KI'KAK IN CAMDEN. Lieutenant Governor I Jet Ilea Will Ad dress C ounty Teachers Saturday.
