SENECA NEWS ITEMS. Preparing for th? Show-Personals* "Don't All Speak nt Once!" Seneca, Oct. 13.-Special: The Moral committee of the Civic Associa tion ls? requested to meet at the home ot Mrs. T. E. Strlbling on Friday af ternoon at 4 o'clock. Important business prompts the chairman, Mrs. Elias Earle, to call the meeting, and a full attendance ls urged. Seneca show-goers are anticipating a rare treat on Wednesday afternoon at 3.30 o'clock, when Victor Imman uel's famous band will hold the opera house, and if press comment is worth anything, it will well repay the price of admission. We have learned that J. H. Bryan lias leased the opera house, which is a guarantee that, the show business is in safe hands, and that Soneca theater-goers may anticipate some good show? through the coining uou son. Seneca merchants who deal in tai lored women's suits say that their sales have far exceeded their expec tations. The truth is, women have decided that in this day of poor help it is more satisfactory to do their house work and buy ready-to-wear garments, and there's no denying the fact that the tailored suits have a style and finish that home tailors can not impart. The Missionary Union of South Ca rolina Presbytery, which was held in the Presbyterian church herc last \ week, was a marked success.

Storm Jail to Get Negro Charged with Attempted Assault. Spnrtauhurg, Oct. 10.-In the heart ot Spartanhurg, with its 20,000 peo ple, a mob of infuriated citizens, at times numbering 1,000 or more, fought to-day and to-night with the military and civil authorities for the possession of John lrby,\ a negro, who is alleged to have attempted to ravish Miss Lillie Dempsey earlier in tho day while the young woman wai on her way here from Saxon mill village, tn re.? mhes away.** . Four poisons were wounded, one of them ?erioubly, and John Sparks, a restaurant keeper, waa arrested and held without ball cn the charge of shooting Sheriff Nicholls, who was slightly wounded In the exchange of shots between the mob and the au thorities, who were protecting the prisoner. Beginning about noon, the crowd, sullen and bent on vegennce on the negro, roamed about the court house square, approaching .it times the very gales of the high wall enclosing the Jail. Later the situation became alarming. The crowd was augment ed by 500 people from Greenville. There was some shooting In the street and the mob moved into the publie square. The first shot came from a window of the jail, and it was followed ny others from the same quarter. An answering shot was fired from the crowd. This broke a window in the jail and slightly wounded Sheri;T Nicholls. Sparks was accused of tho shooting and immediately taken into custody. His attorneys offered $1,000 bail to-night, hut this was refused. Those wounded by Hie officers when they fired on the crowd were: Grover Fowler, 14 years old, shot In the "arm and hand; Ernest Foster, 20 years old, seriously wounded lu the side and shoulder; Garner, 22 years old, slightly wounded in the hip; all mill operatives. While to-day's crime of the negro Irby was the chief cause of Ibo mob's fury, the presence in the jail of two other negroes against whom there have from time to time recently been threats of violence added to the ex citement. One of these negroes, Clar ence Agnew, wrecked a passenger train on the main line of the South ern railway two weeks ago, near Duncan, S. C., and the engineer and fireman were killed in that wreck. lt was expected that Agnew would be tried at the last terni of court, but for some unexplained reason he was not tried. The other negro. Will Fos ter, was twice convicted of the re volting murder of John Young, a white man, last November. lvhy's arrest was effected shortly after the commission of his crime and close to tho scene of his attack. Ho was captured by mill operatives, was taken before the young lady, who Im mediately identified him, and was then carried into tho woods. HIH captors were about to lynch him, when mounted police arrived and wrested him from the crowd, not, however, before the negro had been badly beaten. The negro was taken to the\Jail and almost immediately the storming of the Jail began. She riff Nicholls swore in a number of deputies, and the militia was ordered out. The mob tried to gain Ingress hy means of step ladders, hut that too proved Ineffectual. At midnight the mob spirit was waning. The men that rushed Into the etty from Greenville made a tour of the stores where firearms might be had, but found policemen at every turn and after conferring with local leaders the crowd evidently decided to make no immediate nssault on the jail. The police arrested five al leged leaders of the mob about mid night, this action having a salutory effect. , A certificate from physicians at tending the young lady was glvtn during the day, stating that the ne gro had failed to accomplish his pur pose. On let Restored. Spartanhurg, Oct. ll.-To-day has brought a decided Improvement In the situation here arising from the arrest yesterday of the negro, John irby, charged with attempted crimi nal assault on Miss Lillie Dempsey, the yo mg lady hook-keeper at the Saxon Mills. The three companies of State troops are still garrisoned In and about the county jail and pickets patrol the Court House square, but n* no time, since 1 o'clock last night has there been a crowd in the streets approaching the p. .por tions of a .nob. The negro, whose crime has thrown the city and conn ty Into a fren j y of rage and indigna tion, ls still la the Spartanhurg coun ty joli and will not be taken to Co lumbia. This ls I he statement of one who knows tho exact situation here to-night. The condition of Miss Dempsey, the negro's victim, is sat isfactory to-night. More than Fnough is Too Much.

Columbia, Oct. 12.-The two Spar tanburg prisoners, .lohn Irby and Clarence Agnew, are safe in the State penitentiary, having been brought to-day under a ndlitary guard in command ot Capt. S. J. NichoilH, cap tain of the Hampton Guarda of S ?ar tanburg. Col, Wm. T. IJrock, Assist ant Adjutant and Inspector Genoral, who has been iii Spartanburg since Saturday, also accompanied the squad to Columbia. Capt. Nicholls and his squad took the two negroes to the penitentiary at once on the arrival of the Colum bia, Newborry and Laurens train at 4.50 this afternoon, the trip having been made by way of Laurens. Col. Brock speaks in the highest terms of the conduct of Capt. Nich olls and his splendid company, lt was before the arrival of the com pany that the crowd had attempted to gain entrance to the jail, which at that time was defended by Col. Brock, Sheriff John M. Nicholls and four or five others, Including two Federal prisoners, one of whoi i was Little Bill Howard, the noted Dark Corner moonshiner, who, while under sentence of death for the murder of Big Bill Howard, escaped from the Greenville Jail in his wife's clothing, afterwards securing a new trial and being acquitted. The two Federal prisoners were given guns to defend the jail and responded nobly. After the arrival of troops there was no more violence attempted, but the situation was tense all Saturday night, and Col. Brock is convinced that had lt not been for the presence of three mili tary companies there would have been trouble. However, the jail ls practically Impregnable and would have been defended at terrible cost' to the mob had a lynching been at tempted. As this ls court week lu Spartanburg and the circus is to be there soon it was deemed advisable to bring tho two prisoners to Colum bia. Governor Ansel has not yet receiv ed a formal request for an extra term of court for Spartanburg to try the negro, John Irby, who was brought to the State prison to-day for safe keeping.
