NETTLES IN SCRAP. ! Slaps Face ol Another Minister --Charges to be Preferred. Spartanburg, May 20: ?Bev Ste- j phen A Nettles, member of the South Carolina Methodist conference and publisher of the Southern Christian Advocate at Greenville, was the jji iuti;jai in a ucai'stia^ in mjc icai | of Wofford College Monday morning when he exchanged blows with Rev J B Chick, an ordained preacher of the Methodist church and senior classman of the Wofford Fitting school. It was at 8:30 o'clock, and, so far as can be learned, there were only two witnesses to the affair, A 0 Darby and John Dean, college boys. These.it is said.will be used to exonerate Mr Chick of the blame of the transaction, should the district conference,which meets this week at Woodruff, probe the matter. Mr Chick is pursuing his studies at the fitting school in an effort to fit himself for the pulpit, an applicant of which he became when he successfully passed the examination. As a side-line he is steward at the White House, which is situated on Cleveland street in the rear of the college. The building is the property of Mr Nettles, who, it is said, came nmr )-a QnartanVinrop to AVPr V ?V. i W k/pui VMtlVUI^ VV VtiVVit v ? the rent account and to make further Contracts. There was a misunderstanding, known only to the participants, when, it is said,Mr Nettles accused Mr Chick, who is by trade a painter, of having given his brother an underhand deal in reference to some paints. Mr Chick is said to have denied the charge, when Mr Nettles said, "Well, when you insult my brother you insult me," and Mr Chick, turning his head, was slapped on the side of his face, leaving, it is said,an ugly mark from the contact) sustained with the spectacle frames worn by him. After the disillusionment was passed, it is said Mr Chick gave Nettles a short talk in real earnest as to the ethics of their high calling. It is said Mr Nettles refused to make any apologies and Mr Chick asserts that his friendship with the offending divine will cease and that he will not renew his contract for the next session. After the affair Mr Nettles left for Greenville. Mr Nettles had a quarrel about a year ago with R D Blowers, manager for the Southern Bell Telephone company, over a telephone bill and st.uck him. Rev A J Cauthen, presiding elder, declares that he will present charges against Nettles at the next meeting of the conference. WoDderful Skin Salve.
