Beaufort, Nov. 15.?A hor-ihie accident occured hers last night which resulted in the instant death jf Joe Myers, a cripple negro hov. From the facts divulged at the coroner's inquest today it appears that Myera accupiud the same bleeping room vrith William Law., ranee, his tirat cousin, und that the two hoys were very friendly. According to Lawrauce's version iif the affair, they were about to retire te their respective beds, which were only a few fret apart, and Myera was on his knee* engaged in prayer, when his cousin, according to the latter'* testimony before the coroner's jury, pulied a blanket from his (Luwrance) bed preparatory to entering it, and in doing so jerked a musket which was leaning against the lieadpoat of the bed to the floor. The weapon was discharged and its entire contents entered Myer's right side and head, literally tearing him to pieces. The boy's clothing was on tire when assis lance arrived, but he w <s dead, l'he coroner's jury exonerated Lawrance from all responsibility in the unfortunate affair. The lead boy wai well thought of and was a pious, hunt working little fellow. W. T. W. Circus Rider Ilurt.

V Tbe following "Speeiul Ciicuc lar Letter," sent to a Senth Caroe linian who applied for blanks on H which to file hie claim for a a "bounty," as a Spanisb-Ameri- a can wtr soldier, seems to street- j, ually crush all such hopes: I, Treasury Departmsnt, (j Office of a Auditor for the War Department, ^ Washington, D C., Oct. 8, 1001. A special dispatch w is published in several of the lending daily papers on or about Sept. 5!), 1901, in legard to an alleged discovery of some old laws by a Brooklyn .j lawyer, granting $S3 State and $11)2 federal bounties to soldiers ^ for service in the recent Spanish I * American war, and statieg that it tj would cost the State about $2,- ^ 000,000 and the federal govern t ment about $5,000,000. It waa fl also alleged tlaat aoeie thousands . p? a of cases were now before Attor- t ^ ney General Knox at Washington ! . 1 fer his decisien, and that the mattep is expected te lie settled with in the next ten days. This dispatch is very vagim, 1 and so far us the United States is concerned is incorrect and misleading. No such cases are befere j ; the attorney general of the United < states for hie action or decision, i ( Furthermore, n? law has ever been nassed bv congress. i*r?ntin?r nny bounties whilcvir te any soldiers for service in the lata < Spanish* American war of 189$ 1 and 1899. Certain laws were passed giving axtra pay to such soldiars in certain cases, in liau of a furlough or a laave of absence. But in nearly aII such cases the soldiers who wcra entitled ta such jextra pay have already bean paid ! it. In regard to haunty due to sol diars from the United States for < service in the Civil war of 1801' 1865, no recant bounty laws have bean paaaad.
