jiciting Incidents not laid Down
in the Program,
On tbe baseball ground at Abbeville, last
Wednesday afternoon a very Interesting
tttne was played by Due West and Aboeille,
at tbe conclusion of wbicb everybody
Parted borne down Magazine Street. Ah a
latter of course tbe auiouoblllste started off
bead. Wben tbe auto wblcb Mr. U. A. Hai
it.ioino rtdiun Mhuhziijb Sireot at a
ace lees rapid man would come a charge
orn a Magazine gun, hq innocent looking
tile stone ttiut wan in tlie way, lying on the
round, set the auto Into a tauiruni, when
je machine faced about. The momentum
as feueti that the passengers ana chalfeur
rent otr, one by one, into the air at a ianent,
lighting ou the grouud some twenty
:et ahead. The young lad from Due West,
ho has delighted in auto riding, whs the
Til to pitch headlong down tnealrtel in the
Irecilou In w hich the auto nad been going.
lr. J. C. .NorrlB, was a close second, lauding
a lop ot the tad from Due West. In the
vlnkllng of an eye Mr. (J. A. Harrison lit on
>p ol Mr. Norrls. Messrs. Harrison and
orris were knocked into unconsciousness,
hlle the lad from Due West caned lustily
>r help. Pellon and Ossa were piled upon
le lad Irotn the Alheus of Abbeville,, lu his
ihtreks he called lustily and loudly for reef
trom whatever source. From a very
irly liiatory of the human family women
ave acted the part of good Samaritans. A
?vy of beautliul girls came along. Seeing
le heap or disabled humanity, they began to
jparate them and put tbem In individual
lies. When thlw work was finished the
* ? " u" ?*?Honfq to t ho totlddP
reuy giriB ion men >??nouw. w v?.~ ..?--leroles
of tbe next of tbe passing throng.
Tbe damages-are estimatid: To tbe maline,
one axle bent, two wheels ruined, and
eerlng gear knoofeed into a cocktd bat. To
Ir. Harrison, ribs broken, ana many flesh
raises. Mr. Morris's injuries seem to be
tore serious and of an internal nature. As
yidence of tbe seriousness of Mr. Korrls'a lpirlesltmHy
be said tbat be next day mis>ok
Mr. Addle, bis associate In tbe shop, for
physician. When Mr. Adaie asked bow
e was, be pushed out bis tongue. Mrs. Nors
explained to ber husband that it was bis
lend, Mr. Addle,and not a physician, wbo
ad called to see blm, wben he put out his
>ngue again. He seemed to be in a dazed
}bdltlon. We would state tbe estimated
nmages to tbe young gentleman irom Due
'est, but be has not bten seen or heard from
nee the event of whlcb we are speaking.
Ifred Ellison Is reported to have said tbat
e never saw anybody similarly affected. It
not known what became of blm.
At last accounts tbe machinists and the
iacblne were doing as well as could be exscted.
