loft last Friday on trip to the mountains,
where they will spend several weeks.
JuEt before leaving the city Prof. Moncricf
wa9 in Mrs. L J. McFall's yard hitching
his team, when a bolt of lightning struck
the well house, passing through the roof,
demolishing tho boxing around the well
and severely shocking him and one of the

Professor and the mulo wore soon alright
again.
Last Friday afternoon during a thunder
storni Jim Gaines, a negro, about 25 or 30
years of ago, was killed by lightning while

in the northwestern suburbs of tbo city.
Two boys were near him at tho time and
they were severely shocked. Gaines had

clouds when he was killed. His hat had
a small bole in it, liko that made by a
bullet, but there were no marke o.n his
body.
Mr. John Duboi".o, a bricklayer, while
at work on tbo Webb building last Satur
day morning, fell from the second floor to
the sidewalk, a distanco of about IS feet.
He landed on an empty barrel, which was
lying aerose the sidewalk, etriking on
his stomach. Mr. Duboise is a one-legged
man, having lost his leg by falling from a
wall, and is very fljshy. He was only
slightly hurt, receiving a light flesh
wound on his stomach and a light wound
on one of Ms arme from a nail, which pro
truded from the barrel. It is remarkable
that he was not killed.
Last Saturday morning William Ellis,
an operative in the Anderson Cotton Mill,
had his right arm cut off just below tho
elbow. He was at work in the "picker
room," where the bales of cotton are first
opened, and was feeding a machine known
as a "breaker," which became clogged,
and he ran his band into it to clear it,
when his arm was suddonly caught and
crushed. The arm wa3 entirely severed
and fell into the machine. Drs. Duckett
and Orr dressed the wound, and the unfor
tunate man is doing as well as possible.
Mr. Ellis recently came to Anderson from
New berry.
Offing to a poBtponoment of a number
of cases., the Court finished its busines?
and adjourned last Thursday, much to the
joy of the Jurors and witneseep. The
oases disposed of after our report last weok
were as follows: Cliff Ezell and Daniel
Ezell, assault and battery of an high and
aggravated nature, not guilty ; J. J. Mat
tison plead guilty to violating dispensary
law. and was sentenced to three months,
or ?100 fine; Charles Smith, violating dis
pensary law. plead guilty, and was sen
tenced to three months or $100 fine;
Charles Johnson, G W. Brow and David
Jenkins, violating dispensary law, not
guilty ; Constanca Latimer, Wm. Oliver
and Lou Simmone selling liquor, were
convlcttd and each sentenced to three
months or ?100 fine.
L^st Monday morning, about 9 o'clock,
a bold attrmpt to criminally assault a
young lady of thisoity, waa made by Chris
Harris, a young mulatto, about 18 years
of age. The parents of the young lady
reside in'tho suburbs of the city, and had
just left home. The yGung lady entered
an outhouse in the garden, in tho rear of
which the negro was secreted. In a few
seconds be entered and attempted to throw
her down, but she resisted and screamed
for help, when the negro ran out, jumped
the fence, and made bis escape. Every
effort is being made to capture the fiend.
A reward will bo offered by the City Coun
cil and the Governor will be asked to sup
plement if. Had the negro been captured
on Monday, it is very doubtful whether
be would have ever seen the inside of a
prison.
Mr. E. J. Watson, city editor of the Co
lumbia State, attended tho vetoran's re
union in Nashville last week, and last
Sunday's issue of the Slate contained an
interesting accouut of his trip. He refers
to an Anderson voteran as follows :
"AtrjoDg the South Carolina veterane hero
was John A. Thompson, from Anderson,
who deserves a high piece among the
heroes of the war for an act of heroism at
Gettysburg. While the brittle was raging,
as it raged no whero else, so the story
goes, Thompson saw a wounded Yankee
lying about midway between the lines
calling for water. Dropping on hie knees
ho crawled out through the storm of shot
and shell, in full view of the onemy'a lines
and gave the wounded man his canteen.
The Yankees made it pretty warm for
him until they saw what he was doing and
thon every gun in their line was turned
away from him, while ho returned unhurt
to bis lines. He is an old man now and
has to wear eyeglasses, but tho Liemory of
the -day when he gave the wounded
"Yank" water is still as fresh in his memo
ry as it is in those of his comrades, one and
all of whom vouch for the story."

the grandest, noblest, bravest, tbo world

A Confederate Soldier's Watch.
In the Columbia papers of laet Friday
the following letter, addressed to Adjutant
Goneral Watte, was published :
Philadelphia., June 18,1897.
Adjutant General, Columbia, S. C?
Dear Sir : I have in my possession a silver
watch that I took from the body of Lieut.
Vandiver?I think that this is the name,
or something like it?at the battle o? Wau
hatchie, Tonn., October 1, 1SG3, that I
would like to return to any of hia family
that would appreciate it. Lieut. Vandiver
was a member of the 2d regiment, South
Carolina.
Can you inform me from what town in
South Carolina he enlisted? If I could
learn that I micht be able to learn of bis
family through the local postmaster. Very
truly yours, John L. Oraitam,
Co. F. 29th Penn. Vole.
Philadelphia, Pa.
Room No. 517, Odd Fellows' Temple.
The Lieutenant Vandiver alluded to is
beyond a doubt Lieut. A. W. Vandiver,
father of our fellow-townemen, Messrs.
W. A. and J. R. Vandiver. Lieut. Vandi
ver was first lieutenant of Co. F., Second
Regiment of Rifles South Carolina Volun
teers, Gen. Jenkins' brigade and Gen.
Longstreet'i corps. D. Ii. Donald was
captain of Compauv F. Lieut. Vandiver
enlisted the 29th October, 1801, and was
killed exactly two years later, 29th October,
1803, in the battle known to most of the
Confederates as the battle of Wills' Valley
or Lookout Croek Valley, between Look
out Mountain and Raccoon Mountain,
near Chattanooga, Tenn. The battle took
placo at night between 11. and 2 o'clock,
and on this night he was acting as Adju
tant of the Regimen He carried con
stantly a silver watob, and Mrs. Vandiver,
the widow of tho brave Lieutenant, who
resides In this city, feels euro the watch
alluded to is the one carried by her hus
band. The senior proprietor of the In
telligencer was In this battle, and he
with other veterans say there was no other
Lieut. Vandiver in tho Second Regiment.
The MesarB. Vandiver have written Mr.
Graham, and will no doubt soon receive
the watch, which will bo most highly ap
preciated and which will ever be kept as a
sacred relic of the cause for which their
father gave his life.
