In a short time Chief Constable Fant walked into the place and ordered Mr. Hutcbins to close bis doors, exhibiting a telegram ?rom Gov. Ellerbe to that effect.

Last Sunday afternoon about G o'clock, Sidney, a 7-year-old son of Mr. Moses Jonea, and a grandson of Mr. J. 11. Jones, met with a fatal accid'nt at tho homo of the latter, three mile .south of the city. Sidney and an elder : were each riding a horse to the t m the pas ture, wbon the former's oo became frightened and ran off at a fast gait, throw ing tho lad on his head In the yard. The grandfather heard tho running horso and saw the little follow fall. Mr. Jones ran to him at once, and found tho blood rushing from his mouth, nose and ears. A mes senger came to the city immediately and returned with Dr. E. C. Frierson, who found the ?kull iractured. The unfortu nate boy was beyond human aid, and in two or three hours after the accident death relievod him of his sufferings. On Mon day the remains wore buriod at Flat Rock Church. Tho family have the sympathies of all their friends in their sore bereave ment. Mr. W. C. McCarley died at his homo at Seneca, last Sunday niorniog, al 2 o'clock, after a brief illness of fever, said to have been typhoid. Mr. McCarley was tho second son of tho late H. W. McCar ley, and waa born and reared in Anderson County. For a year or so he was in school here under the lato Prof. Ligon, who often spoke of him as one of fhe bat and bright est pupils ho cvor had. Mr. McCarley sold goods at Townville for a number of years, aud removed to .Seneca, where mis fortune eventually ovt-rlojk him, and he was forced out of busir.oss. In his prime he v. .3 remarkably handsome of face and form. Undemonstrative in words or man ner, he nevertheless ruado many fast friend?, and they will all be sorry that he is dead. Endowed as he was with an un commonly vigorous intellectuality, in which tho powers of intuition and analy sis were conspicuously prominent, he would havo made hie mark in the world had he trained himself for some of tho learned professions. In 1879 he married Miss Mary Hudgens, of Laurena, who, with seven children, tbe eldest a promis ing boy of 17, survives him. Hia body was interred at Seneca, after eervioes con ducted by the Kev. Charles Manly, D. D , of Greenville. He was 47 years of age. An unusually hoavy storm of wind and rain ewept over the Broylea section of the Fork last Thursday afternoon, but we hear ofnoseriou3 damage or injury to persons except at Cikdale Church, where the Bap tist Aspociation was just in the act of con cluding its work. Tho people Bought Bheltor in the Church and echool houee. Only a few remained without in vehicles. One of these, Mrs. II. P. Dobbins, with several of her small children, remained in her carriage, and was seriously hurt by a falling tree, llor breast bone was fractur ed and her spine injured. None of the children were hurt. It is something of a miracle that Mrs. Dobbins and her chil dren wore not instantly killed, for the car nage was almost completely wrecked. Mrs. Dobbins, who was removed to the house of Mr. N. 0. F .rmer, is in a fair way to recover. Another lady, a Mrs. Gray, was slightly hurt. There were no other casualties but many narrow escapes. Several buggies were orushed, and one of Mr. Farmer's buggies was badly damaged by the blowing down of ono of the large shade trees in his yard. While the storm was at its height the Church, a Blender structure, rocked on its foundation like a toy, we are told. Seneca River, at low water mark, rose Bix or eight feet in as many hours. We hear it said no heavier rainfall or severer wind Btorm has visited that locality in twenty-five years. We congratulate our friends congregated at Oakdale upon their miraculous escape.
