Pitts Last Monda on the C. & G. R. R., Near Newberry. Mr. John Pitts is dead. Swift as with an arrow did the huri ng shaft hurl the old man into ete ity. He never quivered. His deat as instantaneous and therefore p:ir .55. The following are the particuhtrs ie shocking accident which occurre n Monday morning at Boyd's, belo ie Kilgore Hill, about twenty nir tes past eight o'clock. Mr. William Pitts. section-mastE etween Helena and Prosperity, wit horn his father worked, started hi 'ank with the force of hands ver rutionsly through the prevailing for opping at times to be assured of hi Lfety. He stopped five tines. H d not know that a special freigli ain was running westward. He i ie of the most industrious and relii e section-masters on the road, as we the most cautious, hence is alway the alert. Just before he stopped for the las me he saw what he sunposed was )dy of men. It was saleday and h id passed a number of men on thei ay to the village. The distance wa )out 600 yards, and to his great sui rise in a moment more he found tha was an engine rapidly approachin trough the mist without head-ligh either did it blow brakes on hin r. Pitts affirms, which would hav tarded the engine one minute, a ast-time enough to have saved hi tr and by this his father's life. The crew of the crank were in thei rirt sleeves. How was it that the ere not seen making desperate effort save themselves? They saw th t-rushing train. Where was the heat ht that dangerous morning and wh as the whistle not blown? Extra pr( utions should have been taken b e railroad authorities on a mornin .e that. Somebody has blundered to the sacr e of a human life,and filled a widowe art with grief. As soon as the section-master sai e engine he began to move the ca om the track, and had succeeded wit is end, but tha negro at the other sid ith deceased seemed completely de oralized and fled, his wheel hangin 1 the track. The old man had freed h de from the rail. At this junctur [r. Pitts called to his father and thi ands to save themselves, while h Lade an effort to remove the end < ie car, but the engine was nearly upo im and he saved himself by leanin tckward to escape its projections. The end of tbe cow-catcher turne ie crank end for end from the ba' it the force of the movement hurle e heavy iron tools upon the old ma ho wras about twelve feet off upo Le bank. The shock must have bee rrific. The lower limbs of the di 'ased were broken and there were dec ishes in the head. The remains were brought by tr aterial train to Newberrv. After tI qluest at Mr. J. S. Russell's residene ie body was placed in a casket an ken to Helena. Mr. John Pitts was an honorable o1 tizen. True and loyal to all his trust e was as simple and guileless in h abits as a child. "He owed no ma ate. Eating the bread of honest to a was therewith content." He wz member of the Methodist Churel id was buried at Rosemont (emneter uesday afternoon in the presence of umber of relatives and friends wh ill miss the kind and quiet old ma onm his accustomed place. vERDICT OF CORONER'S J1 RY.

The Newberry Hotel in New Hands.

M1r. J. A. Blanton, who has made so excellent a reputation as landlord of the Blanton House at Cam den, has now leased the Newberry Hotel and will henceforward give the establishment the advantage of his personal manageneit, and it cannot be doubted will succeed, for he has the knack of making his guests feel at home, providing them with clean and tidy roois, ellicient service and as good proviiler as any one could desire.
