The Empty Pistol.
The old empty pistol got in its work
as usual at Beech Island on Monday.
A Russian peddler, Morris Leach by
name, while tramping along Beech
Island with his wares, about two
miles from the station, met a negro,
with whom he commenced trading.
The negro had a rusty old pistol,
which was said to be in unworkable
condition, and unloaded. This im
plement he exchanged with the ped-
dlar for a pair of green spectacles
(not a gross) and a razor, and then
went his way. The peddler, after
putting up his wares, again started to
examine the empty rusty pistol,
which of course went off*, driving a
ball into his right leg at the knee.
The wounded man was greatly shock
ed at such action on the part of an
empty pistol, but sat down in the
shade of a tree and tightly bound his
bleeding limb with a handkerchief,
and with the aid of two old sticks
managed, under great difficulties, to
hobble to the station, where he took
the train for Augusta and went to the
hospital and received the treatment
he needed.
Sifting Out.
The committee appointed by the
Tillmanite caucus to decide who of
the alleged freemen of Aiken County
shall stand as candidates for the Leg
islature met in the Court House on
Monday and selected Messrs. O. C.
Jordan, F. P. Woodward and M. T.
Gunter as the three who would be
permitted to run. The other four have
been practically instructed to retire
from the canvass.
This can not be the work of a ring,
nor can it be done in obedience to any
orders from headquarters, as we all
know how two years ago the Tillman-
ites danced a war dance over “the
ring, the clique, the oligarchy.”
Examinations ior Scholarships.
The examinations for the benefi
ciary scholrsahips in the Converse
College in Spartanburg, and the
Winthrop Training School in Colum
bia, were held in the Court House on
the 5th inst. Miss Clara B. Timmer
man, of Graniteville, won the schol
arship in the Converse College; and
Miss Myrtis Sally, of Sally won the
first scholarship in the Winthrop
Training School, and Miss Gussie
Dunbar, of Beech Island, the Second.
Palmetto Rifles Picnic.
The members of the Palmetto Rifles
will give their annual picnic and ball
at the Scbuetzenplatz on Wednesday,
the 17th inst. Invitations have been
extended to all the officers and men
of the 1st Regiment, and doubtless
many of them will avail, themselves
of the privilege of being present.
These annual entertainments of the
Palmettos always have been very suc-
cesssful, so much pleasure may be an
ticipated on this occasion.
Town Taxes.
The ordinance to raise supplies for
the government of the town of Aiken
for the year commencing Oct. 1, 1892,
is published elsewhere.
By it it will be seen that the taxes
have been increased, the increase be
ing caused principally by the rental
for water works.
The levy on real estate ' and per
sonal property is 5 6-10 mills, and on
sales of merchandise and incomes 2 %
mills.
Base Ball.
A very fine game of base ball was
played in Aiken on Tuesday after
noon, between the Blackville and Ai
ken teams. It was one of the best
games that the Aiken people have
witnessed for some time. The score
slood 3 to 2 in favor of Aiken, and
there were 3 errors marked on the
Blackville team, and 4 on the Aiken.
The game was umpired by Mr. W. A.
Giles, of Graniteville.
County Campaign Meetings.
The meeting at Lowetown Wells on
Tuesday was fairly well attended, the
two factions being about equally di
vided, as nearly as could be estimated.
Most of the candidates for County
offices, and the four Congressiona
candidates, were present. Speeches
were made by Messrs. O. C. Jordan,
F. P. Woodward, D. S. Henderson,
J. M. Cobb, J. G Evans, G. D. Till
man, Robert Aldrich, W. J. Talbert
and John T. Gaston. While the meet
ing took a recess for dinner Mr. W.
N. Marchant occupied the stand auc
made a few remarks.
After the close of this n eeting most
of the candidates did not return to
Aiken, but went towards Windsor,
where the meeting was held on Wed
nesday. This meetiqg was well at
tended, the Tillraanites being in the
majority, as was expected at this
point. The same candidates who
spoke the day before spoke here.
Messrs. Jas. M. Cobb and D. 8. Hen
derson in particular made excellent,
earnest speeches, much to the point.
Everything passed off quietly, and
after the meeting was over the candi
dates went on to Perry, where they
spoke yesterday.

Col. H. C. King who was to be

murder of Lawyer Poston, in connec
tion with the scandal of Col. King
and the widow of Gen. Pillow, has
escaped the gallows. Governor Buch
anan has commuted his sentence to
imprisonment for life. Col. King is
said to have received the news calmly.
The Press and Banner declares that
of twenty-three Tillmanites in the
town of Abbeville, thirteen are seek
ing office. When held to account some
years ago for his arraignment of the
“political leprosy permeating our en
tire governmental fabric,” Governor
Tillman declared that he referred to
office-seeking.
If the cotton farmers make as much
cotton this year as they made last
year they have more trouble ahead
of them. The world’s supply of
American cotton at the close of last
week was 970,000 bales more than it
was a year ago and 1,772,000 more
than it was two years ago at the same
time.

If your eyes trouble you or you
nave headache, or any nervous affec

arises from defective vision.

Mr. R. A. Chafee is going to have
the old Oakley residence, on Curve
Street, turned around and rolled to
front on Park Avenue. His intention
is to remove from his present house
at the end of South Boundary Street,
and occupy the Oakley house as his
family residence.
By reference to our advertising col
umns it will be seen that Mr. R. A.
Chafee desires to either sell or let his
place on the eastern edge of the town.

8. H. Clifford, New Cassel, Wis.,
was troubled with neuralgia and rheu
matism, his stomach was disordered,
his liver was affected to an alarming
degree, appetite fell away, and he was
terribly reduced in flesh and strength.
Three bottles of Electric Bitters cured
him. Edward Shepherd, Harrisburg,
111., had a running sore on his leg of
eight years’ standing. Used three
bottles of Electric Bitters and seven
boxes of Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, and
his leg is sound well. John Speaker,
Catawba, Ohio, had five large fever
.gores on his leg; doctors said he was
incurable. One bottle Electric Bit
ters and one box Arnica Salve cured
him entirely. Sold by W. J. Platt.

Dangerously Injured.
Wm. Shewmaker and Harri
son, a son of March Harrison, both
colored, had a difficulty on Wednes
day of last week at the Aiken Fire
and Ornamental Brick Works, when
the latter struck the former over the
head with a piece of iron, mashing in
his skull. The Drs. Wyman were
called in and dressed the wound,
which is a dangerous one.
On Monday afternoon they removed
pieces of the skull bone that had been
broken and some of the negio’s brains
came out with it. The bones taken
out were about the size of a silver half
dollar. The negro is still alive but
the chances are greatly against his re
covery. *

Some people seem to think that a
newspaper can make a thing a suc
cess 1 by booming it, whether it is a
good thing or not. Well, a newspa
per can for a short time; but murder
will out, and things always level
themselves, and the success is short
lived. But when the thing is genuine
and the papers talk of it, you can bet
it goes ahead then, and that is why

The Barnwell People says: “The
