Soath of Mr. C. S. Bradford.
On last Friday jnorning about 11
o'clock, Mr. U. S. tsraarora aiea verv
suddenly while directing some work
in St. Stephen's cemetery. D<ath
was instantaneous, due to an att. ok
of the heart.
Mr. Bradford was one of the best
known and mo&t highly beloved men
in Lexington, doming here several
years ago from Augusta, he assumed
the position of associate editor of The
Dispatch, a position he filled with
satisfaction and ability. He was also
postmaster here for about six years.
He was instrumental in the establishment
of the Palmetto Collegiate
Institute and was active in all that
pertained to the betterment of the
town.
His wife, who was a moat estimable
woman, died a few years ago, and the
family moved to Portsmouth, Va.,
where they resided for about a year
when they returned to Lexington.
Mr. Bradford will he missed by everybody.
He was always ready and
willing to lend aid to those in distress
and his whole life was spent in doing
good.
He was about 67 years old, and is
survived by four daughters and two
sons, as follows: Mrs. Ella Edwards,
of New York; Miss Helen Bradford,
secretary of the agricultural department
of Clemson college; Mrs. P. T.
Brodie and Miss Mae Bradford, of

Clint Rhodoa Silled
By W. B. Q-lenn.
Olinfc Rhodea wa9 shot and instantly
killed on the streets of Batesbnrg last
Thursday afternoon at 1 o'clock, City
Electrician Wm. B. Glenn, three shots
from a 38 calibre revolver having taken
effect in the body, eitner of which
would have produced instant death.
Mr. Glenn gave up to the authorities
at Batesbnrg and came direct to Lexington,
where he remained in jail until
last night, when ho was released on
bond in the sum of $5,000.
Ju9t what the trouble arose over is
hard to learn, but it is generally understood
that bad feeling had existed between
the two for several weeks. It
is also stated that Rhoden had made
threats against the life of Mr. Glenn
and that he was in the act of pulling a
pistol, when Glenn fired. Glenn is
carrying a black eye, as a result of a
severe blow from Rhoden.
Mr. Glenn has been employed as
city electrician by the town of Batesburg
for several years, in fact, ever
since Batesburg has had an electric
light plant, and is held in highest
esteem by everyone. A harder working
man than "Bill" Glenn is not to
^
be found Anywhere and he i9 as honest
as the days are long. He ha9 employed
Messrs. Efird & Dreher, Hon. W.
H. Sharpe and Col. E. F. Strother, of
Batesburg, to defend him.
Both parties had many friends, and
the tenible tragedy is regretted by
everyone.

Undergoes Oporation.
Mrs. Reuben Harm an is in the
Columbia hospital, where she was
carried on Friday afternoon for treatment.
An operation was performed
by Drs. Owens & Derrick for obstruction
of the bowels, and at la9t reports,
she was getting along nicely. H r
many friends wish for her a permanent
r jcovery.
Captured In Florida.
Sheriff P. H. Corley captured Henry
Planter, a negro, who escaped from
the county chaingang during February
last year,' at Sanford, Fla., on
Thursday. Planter, it will be recalled,
was a "trusty," and was permitted
the usual privileges around the camp.
0 ie nig it, while the gang was located
near the poor house, Planter made
his escape just before a very heavj
rain, which made it a physical impossibility
for the author;Lies to run
him down, or to even have an idea as
to which course he lock,
Sheriff Corley at cnce got bu y. and
it was rot long before he was on the
trail of his man. The first evidence of
Planters' whereabouts was found in
North fbirnlina. but as that Fta'e had
just voted prohibition Planter decided
that he would hunt a damper ciima e
and made his way to the "Land <f
Flowers,'' where ho would have 110
difficult}* in satisfying his appetite,
and where all negroes want to go.
But this proved a wrong step for Pla. ter,
for Sheriff Oorley was soon on his
trail and now, instead of enjoying the
"blessings of a trusty," he is doing
stunts under Capt. Mack 011 the
Augusta road with a pick and snovel,
and wearing the ball and chains. This
he will continue to do for sixteen
months, unless he succeeds in making
another escape, and this is m t likely.

Laurens, March 'J 7.? In the vicinity
of Parks .Station, three miles east of
the city, last night Toney Ander.cn
was shot dead in the cabin home of
Ida McCoy Nelson, the negivsi hers-If
mortally wounded, dying a few hours
later, and Alex Ray, living a mile distant,
was called to his door and shot
through the heart, expiring almost instantly.
About an hour after the double crime
at Ida Nelson's, Alex Ray was aroused
by some one in the yard who wished
to see him on business. Hay came to
the floor and his callers .asked if ho
could change a dollar, llav replied
that he probably could, an 1 upon petting
his pooketbook returned to the
door when he was felled to the fioorwith
a ghastly gunshot wound in the
chest. He never spoke. His wife
heard the talking bef/re the shot was
fired, but did not recognize any of the
visitors vvicesj
