? Fire broke out in the yards of the
^ Hurt on Lumber company, on the Cooper
river, near Charleston yesterday
and destroyed property to the value of
$125,000.
? Chester special of May 10, to News
and Courier: A Saturday night fracas
over a woman led to a killing last night
in this city, the tragedy occurred at a
point about a hundred and fifty yards
0 above the Southern depot. John Chisholm
was shot through the body and
died almost instantly. The man who
did the shooting, Guy Atkinson, escaped.
hut it is very probable that he
will soon be placed under arrest, as
the officers think that they have located
him. All parties concerned are!
* colored.
? Chester. May 10: There was a
small wreck on the Catawba Valley
railway at a point about a mile and
one-half below Fort Lawn Friday afternoon.
The tender jumped the track
derailing the entire train and tearing
or. thf. roadbed for a distance of about
twenty yards. There were a number
of passengers on board, and all were
shaken up more or less severely, though
none of them was seriously hurt. Mr.
. W. T. Jackson was badly bruised about
* the face. Mr. T. A. Shaw had one knee
badly wrenched and Mr. H. G. Gladden
received an ugly cut below the left ear.
Most of those injured were members
of the party on their way to Chester
to be initiated as Knights of Pythias.
? Columbia Record: Adjutant GenW
eral Boyd is now shipping out from
the state armory to the Second and
Third regiments the new arms supplied
by the government, in place of the
obsolete Krag-Jorgensens. The new
rifle, the repeating Springfield, is said
to have a number of advantages over
the Krag. It is claimed for it that it
has a flatter trajectory, greater penetration.
greater initial velocity and
greater range: that it is lighter and,
^ as it is loaded with clips of five cartridges
at a time, that it can be loaded
and discharged more rapidly. The
* - n.UVi
First regiment win oe suppucu ?u..
the new arms later. The Second and
Third regiments are being supplied
j now. so that the men may become
* familiar with the ritles before they go
Into encampment at Sullivan's Island.
June 18th. The First regiment will
not encamp before July.
? Aiken, May 9: Henry Leopard,
white, was arrested this morning
about 9 o'clock at his home in Langley
and carried to Augusta and then
to the state penitentiary in Columbia,
charged with committing an assault
upon little Lula May Leopard, his first
cousin. Indignation was high, but by
a strategem Sheriff Raborn evaded
the mob and safely got the prisoner
to Augusta. The victim of the cruel
assault identified him positively as being
her assailant. The child, the daughter
of Doll Leopard, was thought last
night to be fatally injured, but this
morning hopes are expressed for recovery.
It was rumored that the prisoner
would be taken from the Charleston
& Western Carolina train, supposed
by the mob to be the route to
be taken to the penitentiary. Leopard
disavows any connection with the
crime. Sheriff Raborn is being congratulated
upon the manner in
which he protected his prisoner.
^ ?State Chairman Wilie Jones has
W received notice that reduced rates
will be granted for the state Democratic
convention to be held in Columbia
on May 20. Delegates and alternates
will therefore travel cheaper.
All over the state there are two matt
ters being discussed by these delegates
?the adoption of a resolution endorsing
Bryan and instructing the delegates
to vote for him as the nominee
of the party and the other is the adoption
of a resolution placing in the primary
the question of prohibition.
There will probably be a hard fight on
both of these propositions although
the Bryan resolution and instructions
will almost certainly pass. From a
4 poll taken a few days ago it was
shown that the majority of the delegates
favor the proposition. On the
prohibition resolution the chances are
not so favorable. At the last session
of the general assembly after the defeat
nf all Drohibition measures, a
0 similar resolution failed and even
should the committee on resolutions
make a favorable report, it will be
fought on the floor. A vote in favor
of state-wide prohibition in the Democratic
primaries would of course,
have no legal effect, but the prohibitionists
think that the moral effect
would be such that the general assembly
next year might pass such a law.
? Columbia special to News and
Courier: The new "Farmers' Union
Sun," the new South Carolina agricultural
weekly, which has the backing
of the state Farmers' Union, whose
official organ it has just become,
made its first appearance, under a Columbia
date-line today. The new recruit
to South Carolina journalism apparently
has a brilliant future and an
important work to perform in an agricultural
state which has four
world's records to its credit. It is a
neat looking four-column, sixteen-page
paper, full of entertaining and informative
reading matter, though it is
not yet anything near what the management
says it will immediately
make it. A department of importance
and interest, which has been provided
. for since this issue went to press, is a
questions and answers department to
be conducted by Clemson experts,
who have gladly consented to lend
this assistance to the farmers through
their paper. Another feature which
is also to be started at once is a home
department, to be conducted and edite
ed by a clever woman of some experience
in such matters. This will be
uDDronriately illustrated. Other de
partments will be added from time to
time. The new paper, strictly speaking,
is not in its infancy. It is a sort
of foundling that was established Jive
years ago and which had a circulation
of 4.000 to begin with under the new
management, which hopes to push
this to the 10,000 mark before the end
of twelve months. It is the intention
of the management (the executive
officers of the State Union) to put up
* a well equipped plant in Columbia as
soon as this can be done, but for the
present the paper is being printed by
contract. The permanent success of
the paper is assured by the fact that
it has both means and ability and experience
behind it, and because the
farmers are aroused to the necessity
of better methods and more education
as never before. The editor is Mr. S.
Frank Parrott, of the Cherokee News.
? Columbia special of May S to The
News and Courier: The supreme
court today handed down a decision
of unusual interest, in this justly celebrated
no-divorce state, which from
time to time has also manifested a
superstitious fear of even a marriage
license law. The formal entry on the
supreme court docket today was, "exparte
John E. Messervy in re. Mes4
xervy vs. Messervy. Ne exeat quashed
and prisoner discharged." Which
being translated means that the effort
of the young 18-year-old bride of 17year-old
John Messervy, in Charleston,
has failed in her effort to have
her husband restrained from leaving
0 the state and deserting her. Judge
Memminger signed the ne exeat order.
which gave the young man the
alternative of putting up a bond of
Sa.OOO or going to jail. His father
went on his bond and carried him
home and kept him there. The couple
were married by the liev. Father
- - * t-.U..,. Vindhsmi'M tiUfU<ni.||
i >uny. hi niMii"i>
staff and went to Savannah to live. The
father of the groom went there two
clays later and brought the groom
back home. Young Messervy says in
A his answer that ho did not fully unW
derstand tlic meaning of the ceremony
he went through and did not
think lie was getting so much married
at the time. Hut while the court relieves
him in this case it a Hunts the
finding of the lower court in the civil
Kcase brought against him by his wife
for alimony. Pending settlement of
alimony contention the lower court
signed an order granting his wife $20
a month alimony lite pendente and
$20i? suit money to prosecute him
with. He pleads that he is young and
has no means of support, but the
court says this will not excuse a
wealthy son if he is able bodied. Mrs.
Messervy says in the court papers that
she has been deprived of her place in
the ten cent store in which she was
* earning $4.."0 a week and that her kin
people are too poor to support her.
? Hot Springs. Ark., May 10: On

I stand for macadamized roads and

The only way to get these improvements
is by issuing long time bonds.
I am in favor of doing road work by

In this way we can complete a firstclass
system of roads and bridges in

HOW TO
SAVE MONE\
Figure it as you please, and yo
can't help but say that you will sav
money by painting your house wit
Peninsular Semi-Paste Paint or Ne\
Era Paint, because both these brand
of Paint stand for purity, durabilitj
full weight and full measure. There
fore you save money on the Paint an
painting, because it will cost just a
much to apply an inferior paint as
good one. Every gallon is guarantee
to give perfect satisfaction or mone
refunded. Ask those who have use
it and they will convince you.
