AXDEKSOX. s. C., February 17.-There was a genuine sensation liere to-day when it became known that an attempt had been made to bribe the jury in the Sullivan murder case. Affidavits were read in court to-day before Judge Izlar 1 to the effect that ll. P. Traminell, <>ue of our policemen, had offered 1.tibes to the jury in the Sullivan case. The Judge is very wrathy over it. and has ordered Policeman Trammel! to appear before him to-morrow for investigation. It is also rumored here to-night that some of the jurymen accepted the bribe. The bribe was one hundred dollars each. Policeman Dillingham told the writer j that Trammel! offered him one hundred dollars to assist him in Iiis work. Tin's1 Dillinghara refused and exposed Train men. Dillingham says Trammel! bad several thousand dollars in cash when I he tried to get him to assist bim. It will remembered that J. Minis Sullivan killel Herman Gilreath in Greenville a!.out eight months ago. Sui- i livan did not think that he could get a fair trial at Greenville, so the ? ase . is moved to this place and Sullivan would] have been tried here yesterday for the murder of Gilreath had it not been that the Supreme Court interfered and or dered the trial postponed. Tims the matter stands to-day. Deveh .prhents that will astonish the public are expected a: the investigation to-morrow. ANDERSON, February ls.-When court convened this morning the Solicitor brought up tlie rule to show cause issued against li. I'. Trammel! yesterday, hut the respondent did not appear. Mr. ' Wardlaw. his attorney, asked the court to pass the matter for the present. The court said that the matter would he postponed until the conclusion of the Kant er.se, then on trial, hut that tin rule must then be answered. At 2o'clock the matter was ;igain called up. The respondent was not present and made no answer to the rule ami it was therefore made absolute. The Judge then sen tenced Mr. Trammel] to pay a fine .>: $100 and to stand committed until said :ine is .aid. It is not known, where the defendant has gone. Onercmor is that; he has gone to his uncle's, near Honea Path, hut tie- general impression is that he has "skipped out" for some other State. From affidavits made, the substance of which is published ia the Greenville Daily y'tes. we do not believe there is any truth in the statement published, that un . effort was made to bribe the jury in the case "f the Stale against Sullivan, for thc . killing of Gilreath, in Greenville.

Says he has been looking im patiently for the promised reform in our State government in the reduction of our taxes and the cutting down of the sala ries of our public officers, but so far he lias looked in vain. He has about come to the conclusion that the reform move ment is a myth and a boomerang. Return Items. RETURN, S. C.. February 21, 1893.

Ballenger, situ ated one mile below here, was destroyed by fire on last Sunday afternoon about 2 o'clock. The house was occupied at the time of the fire by Mr. John Walker, Mr. Hallenger having moved his family j to his mother's, since the death of his j brother James. The origin of the fire ! was accidental, having caught from a af fective stove Hue. Mr. Walker had built a fire in the stove for the purpose of pre paring dinner, and ..ent to the pasture to see about some stock. While gone to the pasture he discovered the fire and i ran back to try and save his household ! goods. The wind was blowing at a rapid rate and be succeeded in saving but ; few things. Most all of Mr. challenger's household furniture was burned. The house was almost new, having been built some two or three years ago. The loss is ? over one thousand dollars, with no insur ance. The bot supper given by the ladies of this place, for the benefit of the Metho dist church, was served in Maj. B. H. Cross's storehouse on last Thursday night. On account of the inclement weather there was not as large a crowd present as desired. There were plenty of good things to eat and everybody seemed to have enjoyed the occasion finely. The amount realized from the hot supper and the contributions from parties who did not attend was near fifty dollars. Rev. W. T. Matthews closed his revival meeting at the Presbyterian church on Monday night of last week. There were nine accessions to the church. Toward the ? lose of the meeting the church was crowded to overflowing. Our people are very much impressed with Rev. Matthews and they <dl want to hear him preach again. Two freight cars, loaded with guano, were knocked off the track and com pletely torn to pieces at this place one day last week.

C., February 21.-A great many of our citizens were wondering yesterday afternoon at the cause of the gathering of a considerable nuruber of the Alliance, but the cause was easy to explain when it <4vas learned that they had come tocconfcr with Congressman elect Larimer on the prospective post masters of this county. A meeting was held last night, open to any one who de sired to attend, in which nominations were made for postmaster at the different offices as they were called out by Mr. Latimer. After the list had been gone through Mr. Latimer announced the meeting adjourned, and a prominent Al lianceman announced a meeting of Al I ian cernen to take place immediately. The intelligent reader is left to surmise whether or not anything more was done in the line of parcelling out the offices. It seems from the speeches made last night that a man must be in the "move ment" to entitle him to any consideration from Mr. Latimer. Sheriff Riser's Strange Contrast. [Columbia State.' The conduct of Sheriff Riser, of New berry, in th" railroad contempt cases, is in strange contrast to that of the other Sheriffs, especially Gov. Tillman's pet, Nance, whom the organ has seen fit to condemn in loudest tones, for bis con duct. Sheriff Riser is a hot Conservative, yet he is ihe only Sheriff who is standing firm in Charleston, and sticking the con tempt matter out. The three Tillmaniie Sheriffs are at their homes, and he is making Gov. Tillman sore by being the only one with the nerve to stand the ! affair out to the end.

Lee, in the twenty-second year of his age. He was born August 16th, 1872, and if he had lived until next August would have been twenty-two years old. He had moved with his mother and other rela tives into Newberry county, "near Chap pell's Depot. Mr. George T. Reid, his mother's brother, had lost his wife, and his mother had gone to live with him, and after a very short time Bobbie, as he was familiarly called, sickened and died. The physician who waited upon him said, when he first saw him, that he was very sick, and gave his mother no hope of his recovery. He rapidly grew worse and the end came sooner than it was ex pected. He never murmured, and when asked if he was afraid to die, answered no, and told his loved ones not to weep for him. All was done that love and at tention required, but wc could not keep him with us. . God has taken him away from us, and we bow in submission, and say thy will be done. His father pre ceded him a few years ago to the spirit land, and now his eldest son follows. He was the son of Mr. L. B. anc Mrs. L C. L.ee. Bobbie was a quiet young man, attending to his own business and wish ing everybody well. Ile was his mother's stay and support. She was just begin ning to lean upon his strong arm. when Go^ removed him from earth. God com fort her and sanctify this affliction to the spiritual good of all his relatives and friends. a. w. s. The Case of Sullivan for Killing Gil reath, of Greenville. [Special to thc Greenville Daily News.] AXDKKSOX, S. C., February 17.-This morning Solicitor Ansel asked the court what disposition would be made of the Sullivan case. Judge Izlar said: "Under the circumstances I think I will continue the case for tm's term. The Supreme Court has apparently assumed jurisdiction of the case, and I do not care to complicate matters by any conflict of jurisdiction between the Supreme Court and myself. 1 will file an order giving them more fully my reasons for continu ing the case." The witnesses received their checks and will return to their various homes to-day. The case is now transferred to the Supreme Court and the attorneys for the State feel confident that that court will promptly vacate Justice Pope's order. Judge Melton, in a conversation with your correspondent this morning, ex plained in a very lucid manner the defense's side of the case. He declared that Judge Aldrich in the Greenville court had no authority to transfer the case to Anderson, because no motiou was made to that effect and because no affi davits were submitted to prove that the defendant could not get a fair and impar tial trial in Greenville, which, under tho law, is the only ground on which a change of venue can be had. When the defense made the motion to quash the jory panel on account of .Sheriff Gilreath - relation- I ship to the deceased, Judge Aldrich did so. In view of the fact that the same state of affairs would exist as long as Sheriff Gilreath remained in office, which would certainly be five years if he should live to serve out his term. Judge Aldrich, of h;& own accord and without any motion or authority of law, transferred the Case to Anderson. Now when the case is called fer trial the defense does nof, as supposed by some, ask to have the case taken back to Greenville, but simply denies Anderson county's jurisdiction. Judge Melton said that the defendant ano his friends were quito-willing to have the case tried in Anderson, but the trial i would be illegal, and even should Sulli van be acquitted he would be liable to another trial, and he did not want to be tried twice. The appeal will be heard in thc latter part of May. If the Supreme Court decides that Anderson county has no jurisdiction, of course no other county has jurisdiction, and the case cannot be tried in Greenville as long as P. D. Gil reath or any kinsman of the deceased holds the office of Sheriff. Thc inevita ble result would be to postpone the case for years or until the death or resignation of P. D. Gilreath as Sheriff.

He says : "I was feeling sick and tired and my stomach seemed all out of order. I tried a number of remedies, but none seemed to give me relief until I was in duced to try the old reliable Ayer's Pills. I have taken only one box, but I feel like a new man. I fhink they are the most pleasant and easy to take of anything I ever used, being so finely sugar-coated that even a child will take them. I urge upon all who are In Need of a laxative to try Ayer's Pills." - Boothbay (Me.), Register. "Between the ages of five and fifteen, I was troubled with a. kind of salt rheum, or eruption, chiefly confined to the legs, and especially to the bend of the knee above the calf. Here, running sores formed which would scab over, but would break immediately on mov ing the leg. My mother tried every thing she could think of, but all was without avail. Although a child, I read in the papers about the beneficial effects of Ayer's Pills, and persuaded my moth er to let me try them.
