Was it Foul Play, or a Horriblo Railroad Accldoni ?-Form Your Opinion. MARION, August 5.--A shocking and distressing tragedy occurred in this county Thursday night, on tho Florence railroad, botweon Latta and Sellers' sta tions, in which Mr. Herbert S. Ellorbo, brother of tho late Gov. W. II. Ellorbo, lost his lifo, tinily Friday morning ir, was roportcd in that neighborhood that a mau had boen killed tho night bofore by tho south-bound vest?bulo train, which passed Hiere about half-past :i o'clock in tho morning. A search was at ouco instituted and portions of a hu man body were found. Enough was found to identify tho person killed ns Mr. Horbort Ellorbo. It was known that Mr. Ellorbo had loft Latta Thurs day night to walk to Sellers' I way of tho railroad track. Tho body was literally torn to pieces, and nothing remained of what tho day boforo was a young, strong and active man but a fow scattered bonos, and theso sadly bruised, crushed and mangled. In ono placo tho scalp of tho head was found, with tho flossy black heir largely intact, and this was easily recognized by lilis friends. In another place a bono of tho log, between tho knee and ankle, was Ifound, with scarcely a partido of flesh on lit. A small section of tho thigh was found in anotbor placo, but this, unlike .thor sections of tho body, was almost without bruise or blemish. A small liceo of tho backbone and a band and list woro also found, and also a few ithor small bones from different portions |f tho body. Nono of t ho clothing was found, except 0 coat, ono slcovo of which is said to ive been found with tho trousers on io ongino of tho train upon its arrival Charleston. In tho coat pocket was lund a $5 bill, which, was tho only moy, oxcept possibly a little silver, |iicb bo was known to have oil his per il. Tho pockets of his trousers arc d to have been turned inside ?nit when lind. A colored man, who went from scono of the tragedy to Pee-Dco sta ll, says that there wore shreds of hair, Ithing and (lesli all tho way between Iso places. {loenville District (Colored) Conference. \ho sixth annual session of tho Greon District (Colored) Conference coll ied in Easley Chapel at Kasloy, Sont li jolina, July 20th, 1800. |bo tlrst day, evening session, ipenod devotional services, conducted by liding Eldor J.

Walla Tonchka, tho Chootaw In dian who Wa? sontenoed to death by his tribal judge'two years ago, has finally been exeouted. He was charged with three murders, the last victim being his uncle, and there ."corns to havo boon no doubt of his guilt. Tho delay in tho execution of tho sontonqo was from a cause so tnuoh less sorious as to savor of opera bouffe. It appoars that this inter esting murderer was a capital hall player, and without him his nation's team would practically have\gono to pieces, so tho court was provailod upon to let him oft until after tho (??min with I??U?B?.S City, accepting tho word of a "noble rod man" that ho would return and suffor death on tho day appointed. It appears that ho playod hall, and voluntarily returned in duo course, to tho groat admiration and aston ishment of thousands of pale-faces who knew that in his piaco they would havo brokon parolo and run away. Bat h?8 oxecution did not follow at once Tho pcoplo clamored, and there v/as anothor ropriovo, and moro ball. Not until a fow days since, two yours after tho sontouco was imposed, did Tonchka Buffor tho long agony of tho rovolting tribal method of execution. It is said that throughout his stoi cal composure was complote Ho accepted each reprieve with tho S?UVIO indifferent shrug of tho shoulders with which he finally wont out to meet his death, and moanwhilo ho played ball with all the ardor of a college boy. Apparently it was easier for him to faco tho execution ers than to break tradition and flee from tho scorn of tho tribesmon. He was capable of three murders, hut scorned to run away from death and break his word of honor. Tho Chicago Tribune thinks it would be a grand thing if thisphaso of Choctaw honor could bo "saved from extinction with tho dwindling tribe, and could be grafted upon our American youth. Few of us could ho sure of standing the test that Walla Tonchka stood." American history proves that thc honor that leads men to faco death unmoved is not as scarce among our youth ns this would seem to imply, novortho less there is , something behind tho impassive and inscrutable faco of thc aboriginal American savngo that will ever remain a mystery to tho white man. ?D.A. m ?ra nx J%..

Thc Governor has received official notice that tho long delnyed election in Donalds township had been held and that tho result was that tho township voted to be annexed to Anderson by 20 to 5, Tho small vote was explained by thc statement that the registration book of 1890 was sent instead of tho later ono which, it was said, had been lost. Some qualified voters, whose names were not on thc book, were allowed to vote, but they did not change the situation. So Donalds goes to An derson, unless some unexpected legal difficulty .arises in the meantime,! and the question has been prolific of such heretofore. UNCU: SAAVs'tlOT BATHS.

Wo aro making muon progresa in ! many way?, and in many things, but j in our behavior iii ohuroh, I f?ar we are retrograding. People getting up | and going out, talking, whispering, marking on books, and iu many ways! calling the attention of the people j around them. This, duriug the ser mon, is enough to distract the mind of any proaoher, and many sermons aro almost lost in this way, I have noticed that a good deal of tho mis behavior in our ohurohes is V/ peo ple who are visiting. Espeondly is this true whon the visitors are from a larger placo ; with a ourl of the ] lip, and a nod of tho head they seem, to say that is not tho way we do at homo. I am surprised you don't have things different hero to what you have. Bad behavior iu ohuroh may be accounted for in several ways. It may bo beoauoe the per sons havo not been well raised. Then it may bo beoause of a vory light head, when tho very best training fails to do much for tho individual. If tho training has been good and tho hoad is all right thero ?B only o??o moro way to account for it, and that is tho person or persons guilty of misbehavior in God's house, must have a very blnok hoart. Some time ago, in a small town, I asked a young man, who came from a largo city, if they had bad bohavior in churches in tho oity. Ho said yes, sometimes : but, he said, it is always among tho low olass of people Dr. G. A. Lofton, in his "Character Skotohes," says : "Among tho worst of assinino per formances is that of laughing and talking in tho pews during sorvice. Sometimes it occurs botwoon don keys of tho samo gender, oftonor bo tween donkeys of a different sox ; but whosoever ?B guilty of it croates the most serious disturbance to tho minister and II?B congregation. Tho Indians and Hottentots aro said to bo very respectful al ulundi o?rviue. Jews and Catholics aro solemn and silont in their house's of worship. A heathen would not think of dese crating tho house of his God. I have often preached to negroes and I never saw one misbehave. I have had an nudienco of penitentiary con victs, jail-birds-yea, of lewd women and bad mon in sevoral places-and yet among all these I never saw any thing lr.it respectful attention to thc preaching of the gospel. It is re served only for Protestants and thoir children-and in their own churches so far ns my observation gooB-to be guilty of tho crime of misbehavior in the house of God-thia high crime against religion."-Rov.

"Tho American idea of govern ment is very good, but tho United States lins never boon able to givo expansion to it." Other questions brought out tho following statements : "Day and night is cause by tho risen and settcn of tho sun." "A man could go around the world in five minutes if he could travel nt tho rato of twenty-five miles an hour." "To secure the right to vote a man must pay $300 and be able to read law."
