BLOODY AFFRA
It Grows Out of On
Scandal
Feios mid
SELL?ES, November 14.-A short
while before dusk this evening the
streets of Sellers, was the scene of ':.
serious and probably fatal shooting
affrpy, the result of which is Mr.
John G. Sellers, a prominent and
highly respected citizen of the town,
lies seriously.wounded at the home of 1
his son-in-law, Mr. Maxey "Watson;
Mr Ben Sellers is wounded in the ab
domen; Henry Edwards has a load of
bird shot in his chest, and Mr. J.
Dudley Haselden, late chairman of
the State board of control, has a 38
oalibre pistol ball in his leg.
The unfortunate affair seems to have
been the culmination of a letter sup
' posed to have been written by Mr.
Ben Sellers to the State (newspaper)
some weeks since, accusing Mr. Ha
selden of dispensing liquor from his
home near this place.
Yesterday morning Mr. Ben Sellers
received a message from Mr. Hasel
den, asking him to come over to his
gin, which is about a mile from here,
near the Haselden homestead, the
message saying that he wanted Mr.
Sellers to settle with him for a num
ber of bale; >f cotton which he had
ginned for him some weeks since, and
to remove his cotton seed, which was
in the way. Mr. Sellers went over to
Mr. Haselden's at an early hour this
morning, and the business was quick
ly settle!; after which Mr. Haselden
accus? d Mr. Sellers of being the au
thor of the above mentioned article.
Mr. Sellers emphatically denied the
charge and some hot words followed,
both men abusing each other. At
this juncture Mr. Haselden drew his
pistol, but made no effort to use it.
Mr. Sellers was unarmed and said that
was no place to settle the matter. At
the scene were present besides Mr. J.
Dudley Haselden, Mr. Haselden's
father, J. G. Haselden\ his brother,
Mr. L. M. . Haselden, Dr. Henry Ed
wards and Aubrey Evans.
This morning,'shortly after tt?e dif
ficulty at Mr. Haselden's gin house,
. Mr. Haselden, in company with his
brother, L. M. Haselden, Dr. Ed
wards and Aubrey Evans, drove into
Sellers, and stopped for a short while
and engaged in conversation with sev
eral citizens and left, it was supposed
for Marion. Nothing more was seen
of Mr. Haselden and the gentlemen!
accompanying him until a short while
before dark, when they drove in from .
toward Marion, both buggies stopping
side by side on the south end of the ;
depot and directly over thc railroad
trucks, i
At this moment Mr. Ben Sellers,
who had been in the postoffice, walked '.
out on the platform. As soon as he ?
.appeared he was fired at from the bug
zgy containing Mr. Haselden and Dr. ;
S vans. The ball, which was from a
-38-calibre pistol, struck Mr. Sellers
. squarely in the stomach, going np- ,
. ward. The next shot fired struck Mr. ,
: Sellers in the left hand, entering be- j
< tween the second and third fingers, j
\ breaking the thumb, and coming ont. i
Immediately after the second shot Mr. ?
i Sellers palled his pistol and opened j
. fire upon the occupants of that buggy.
At this moment the two buggies <
? separated, one going a short way up ]
' the railroad track and the rear one ]
r going to the left a short distance be- 1
low. The second buggy contained c
.Messrs. Haselden and Evans. When f
.the buggy came to a standstill Mr. t
Haselden got out and walked towards t
4 dwelling house some distance from r
the platform, from which point he j
fired several shots. Owing to the fact f
that Mr. John C. Sellers t ?me upon j
the scene at this moment, it is not t
known upon whom Mr. Haselden's j
shots took effect. Mr. Sellers rushed 1
out upon the platform to the aid of E
his son, and drew his pistol and open- ^
ed fire upon Evans, who was then the j
only occupant of the buggy. The t
other buggy at that time contained c
only Dr. Edwards, who wa:s alone, j
with a rifle. He wheeled his horse t
back across the railroad and the rifle ]
fell out on the track and was not pick- 1
ed up until Mr. Haselden's hands i
came back for it, about twenty min- i
utes later, and Mr. John C. Sellers \
was wounded with a 44-calibre, appa- c
rently a rifle ball, which passed under E
the left collar and came out behind c
the left shoulder. Another bullet of \
the same calibre entered behind the i
right shoulder and was cut out over the .
spinal column. The third ball'entered 1
the left forearm and came out ]
about four inches above the point of i
entrance. !
A negro, who witnessed the whole ?
shooting, said that Mr. Luther M. 1
Haselden got out of Dr. Edwards' t
buggy as they drove up and got on the f
south platform from that side. A t
bullet hole appears in a pane of glass s
ranging down towards the inner office i
and a bullet was found on the floor of i
the office after having gone through ]
the door. s

SELLERS, November 15.-There are
no new developments in the shooting
affair to-day. All parties are getting
along as well as could be expected.
Your correspondent met some parties
on the road, who informed him that
Mr. J. Dudley Haselden was going to
Columbia to-night, which caused a
speedy trip to the Haselden home
stead. Upon arriving there he was
met by Mr. Luther M. Haselden, who
promptly introduced him to his broth
er, J. Dudley Haselden, who is the
only one confined to his bed. Mr.
Haselden gave the following state
ment:
''Yesterday morning Mr. Ben Sel
lers and myself had some talk about
the letters. I told him I did not hold
him responsible for the letters, for I
did not believe that he wrote them. I
told him I heard that he had been
making reference to them, and that I
could not and would not allow it. I
then asked him if he had made such
reference, that it was hard for rae to
believe it, and he did not deny it. I
told him he would either have to affirm
or deny. It resulted in my striking
him. Aferwards we apologized to
each other, shook hands and then
transacted our business. As he was
leaving I said, 'I suppose we shall
meet as friends or how?' He sug
gested that we meet without speaking.
I suggested that he seemed unsatisfied
and that it would be best to settle it.
I told him I would give him satisfac
tion any way he wished it, he to get a
friend to represent him. He said:
'Oh, if after reflecting on it I am not
satisfied, I will give you ample no
tice.' The* notice I got was while pass
ing the de?ot in my buggy he rushed
out>, pistol in hand, and opened fire on
me, hitting me in the leg. As I
jumped to the ground I returned the
fire promptly and general firing began.
Mr. Ben Sellers retired to the waiting
room and Mr. John C. Sellers ran out,
and then guns were fired from the
waiting room. Only Mr. John C.
Sellers and his son, Ben. showed
themselves at all. ' Mr. John C. Sel
lers took refuge behind the mail crane
and we exchanged several shots. I
think Mr. Sellers was well-armed, as
he fired at least ten times.
J. DUDLEY HASELDEN.
Upon being interviewed Mr. John
C. Sellers said: The first intimation of
trouble was after my son returned
from Mr. Haselden's gin and told me
aow outrageously he had been treated
by the mob at Haselden's, after hav- :
ing been invited there on a matter of
jusiness by Mr. J. Dudley Haselden.
fast after my son informed me of the .
irouble they drove up in buggies, i
Messrs. J. Dudley and Luther M. i
?aselden in one buggy, and Mr. Au- 1
)rey Evans and Dr. Edwards in an- ?
>ther buggy; Mr. J. G. Haselden, the i
ather of Messrs. J. Dudley and Lu- i
ber M. Haselden. in a buggy behind
he others. As Dudley and Luther
eached the railroad track Luther
umped down and shifted his pistol
rom one pocket to another. Dudley
)ut his in the foot of the buggy. Lu- i
her went to the north side of the de- '.
)0t, as if looking for some one. Dud- i
ey got out and went on the opposite ]
lido of the depot, taking his pistol t
vith him. Evidently not finding thc I
>erson whom they were looking for, <
hey drove towards Marion. I expect- I
:d trouble that evening, and we pre
pared ourselves for it. The mob re
amed about dusk, coming by way of ;
3en Seller's house, which was about 1
?alf a mile away from the travelled .
.oute from Marion. When they I
.eached the depot they stopped both 1
)uggies. Luther Haselden jumped .
mt and ran up the steps on the south ?
?ide of thc depot. My son, Ben, was 1
>n the front of the office door on the <
vest side and I was in the office writ
ng. Without a word being spoken |
\ubrey Evans fired at Ben and struck
lim on the left hand, and immcdiate
y Dudley fired at him, striking him 1
n the breast. Aa soon a3 possible j
3en pulled his pistol and began firing, j
md emptied his revolver at che crowd. ,
[ then ran out, and as I passed through j
he door I was shot through the left ?
orearm, I think, by Luther Haselden (
brough the window. I ran down the j
iteps, firing at Dudley Haselden and (
iubrey Evans, who were both run- 1
ling and firing back. About then .
3en fired at HeDry Edwards with his
ihotgun, but after exchanging- a few (
shots with him he whipped up his
horse and rao off. I was shot in the
back by either Luther or Dudley Ha
selden, while shooting at Henry Ed
wards. Dudley Haselden ran through
a house and yard and took refuge in a
negro's privy. Aubrey Evans'jumped
in a window of a lady's house. Luther
Haselden went under the platform on
all-fours and left the depot running
like a buck. It is currently reported
that the crowd had coats of mail man
ufactured and had them on.
The above statement was read to
Mr. Ben Sellers and he said he could
add nothing to it, and corroborated the
same in full,
Mr. Luther M. Haselden was asked
for a statement, but preferred to hold
his until later. It was impossible to
got any further information from the
negro witnesses.
Things are getting down to their
level once more in Sellers.

Miss Helen Gould on the Roberts
Case.
WASHINGTON, NOV. 4.-Ajt.-Gen.
Liller of the Spanish war veterans has
received the following letter from Miss
Helen Gould:
LYNDHURST,
Irving-on-Hudson, Nov. 2,1899.
Gen. William Christopher Liller, Ad
jutant General, S. W. V., Washing
ton, D. C.:
My Dear Mr. Liller: If the matter
commends itself to your good judg
ment and you have not already taken
an interest in the Roberts question, I
hope you may feel willing to do so.
Mr. Roberts, it seems, has at least
three wives, and advocating and prac
ticing thc principle be does, he should
not, we women think, be allowed to
have a seat in the highest lawmaking
body of our land. We realize that what
we think cannot carry the weight with
congressmen that communications
from voters would have, and we ear
nestly hope that men who sympathize
with the movement will be willing to
write their congressmen or circulate
petitions.
I have never before taken any ac
tive part in any political question, but
this movement is for the protection of
the home and of women throughout
thc country, and I am glad to use the
little influence I have for what I be
lieve to be a righteous cause.
I trust you will pardon me for trou
bling you, but you soldiers have been
so good to me I am venturing to call
your attention to a matter that inter
ests me deeply.
Enclosed you will find some of the
leaflets on the subject issued by the
League for Social Service.
Hoping to have the pleasure of
meeting you, when in New York again,
I remain, Very truly,
HELEN MILLER GOULD.
A recent letter from Mrs. Roach,
our State President, tells of a petition
she has just sent to Congress protest
ing against the seating of polygamist
Roberts. I am sure every ''white
rib boner" of Anderson regrets that
she had not the opportunity of sign
ing her name to a petition we all so
heartily approve. In fact, this is a
matter which concerns vitally the en
tire womanhood of our country. The
Mormon 1 'octopus," as someone aptly
sails it, has quiet, insidious emissa
ries in many of the less enlightened
sections of our own Southland, and it
becomes us to be ever on the qui vive
lest while we sleep this arch-enemy
shall sow our country thick with the
tares of sin and domestic misery.

Revised Thanksgiving Proclamation.
By the President of the United States
and outlying colonies-a proclama
tion.
A national custom, dear to the ?
hearts of the people, has heretofore
called for the setting apart of one day
in each year as an occasion of special
thanksgiving to Almighty God for thc
blessings of the preceding year. This
honored custom acquires with time,
circumstances, and people a tenderer
significance so that it is deemed in
higher and more appropriate recogni
tion of our humble services (miric,
Mark's and God's) to set apart at least
twelve months as a period of general
thanksgiving and prayer.
Seldom has this nation, or any oth
er nation, for that matter, had greater
cause for profound thanksgiving.
Wc fcund a nation with whom wc
were at peace, unable to govern its
uuruly subjects, and in thc interest of
humanity alone and actuated by no
other motive than pure benevolence,
we undertook to assimilate them and
by the payment of twenty million dol
lars to the nation against whom they
were at the time in insurrection, re
ceived that nation's permission to do
so and be darned. We -have been en
gaged now in this generous calling for
several months, and find that the sit
uation is "well in hand." The especial
cause for congratulation aud sincere
thanksgiving in this particular is the
newly discovered fact that there are
still a few of those pesky islands that
we didn't buy, therefore we will not
have to assimilate them. We have
succeeded in staying off pestilence
from our shores, such as Democratic
victories. We have given liberal em
ployaient to labor: even employes un
der the civil service rules have been
putting in extra time working for thc
success of American arms in the States
of Ohio, Kentucky,^Nebraska, Mary
land and Xew York. We have
strengthened thc national finances,
and to-day the nation can buy a whole
archipelago on six month's time if
she wanted one. In all branches of
industry and trade there has been an
unequalled degree of prosperity as
evidenced by our recent purchased
victory in Ohio and Kentucky, which
is an indication of the moral and edu
cational growth of our national char
acter. The trusts, which we have so
zealously fostered, arc growing nicely
and are in position to protect the
honor of the flag by honoring it with
their substance during presidential
and off years.
For these reasons, and others too
numerous to mention, I, William Mc
Hanna, President of the United
States, do hereby name the next
twelve months ending at sundown
Tuesday, November 6th, W. M., M.
H., and A. D., 1900, as a season of
fervent thanksgiving and prayer, to
be observed as such by all our people
on this planet, Mars and those islands
in the Milky Way. I recommend, al
so, that those holding positions of
trust and honor under this govern
ment evidence their gratitude in sub
stantial contributions to the poor, the
sick and the needy campaign fund in
order to maintain the honor of the
flag.
In witness whereof, I have set my
hand and private seal. Done in the
United States of America and the first
fear since the death of the lamented
Declaration of Independence and the
Constitution of the United States.

Fraternity-Its Scope, Influence and
Benevolence.
EDITOR INTELLIGENCES: In this age
of i n du striai, com mere in 1 fl n d terri torial
expansion, in this age of progress, edu
cation and good will toward men, the
average toiler or breadwinner takes no
time to acquaint himself or inquire, into
tho merits of social and benevolent
features of fraternity. Often through
Srejudice and ignorance one is persua
ed to believe that all fraternal orders
are on the decay, and that it is only a
question of time before all of them will
disappear and become a relic of the
past. How much truth can be found in
"such idle assertions when properly and
honestly analyzed? One of the great
est, noblest, purest and most sincere
and upright statesmen, better known
as the "Grand Old Man," the late Rt.
Honorable Wm. E. Gladstone, said with
reference to fraternal orders:
"You go into these societies to seek
your own good through the good of
others. Friendly societies have be
come so important and telling a feature
in the constitution of English society
in its broadest and most fundamental
part, that any account of this nation,
of this people; to whom we rejoice to
belong, would deserve no attention as
a really comprehensive account if it
excluded the elementof such societies."
There are ninety-odd fraternal orders
reporting to the Chief Registrar of the
English parliament, each more than
one hundred years old, and comprising
a membership of over eight millions.
The Count Dc Winton, established
in 11(38, in the reign of King John, is
731 years old and solvent to-day. The
Royal Evanus, established in 1337, is
542 vears old and solvent to-day. The
De Foe benefit has existed for over 211
years without a defalcation.
The Knights of Honor, in existence
over 20 years in this country, has paid
out over sixty-eight million dollars in
benefits, which means that it has re
lieved millionsof families who, through
the loss of the bread-winner, would
have been in distress and perhaps pau
pers to-day.
In Anderson alone fifty-eight thous
and dollars have been paid by this or
der to widows and orphans, most of
whom were in need of it when the head
of the family was lost to them, and
without this small protection, as some
would call it, there would have been
great suffering in our midst.
The ligures from the last New York
Insurance Report of December 3lst,
1898, shows that 40 fraternal orders paid
out during that year$^6,586,152. Think
of it for a moment only, that these
millions were paid to widows and or
phans wiiose husbands and fathers
could not have paid the heavy premi
ums demanded twelve months in ad
vance by insurance companies, and that
this protection was secured through
the instrumentality; of these fraterni
ties, who are furnishing its members
protection at cost, and that these as
sessments are paid in small . sums
monthly.
Would these millions have been paid
out if such benevolent, charitable and
fraternal orders were not in existence?
Is any one justified in abusing and
slandering these societies by predicting
decay, when in the face of such ligures
struggling humanity is hourly aud dai
ly relieved from dire suffering? Is any
stronger argument needed than the
presentation of these ligures which
are staggering to all who would dare
say a word against these fraternities?
The Knights of Honor, as a fraternal
benevolent aud charitable order, has
during its 20 years of existence, saved
many a home from foreclosure, has
helped many a young boy and girl re
ceive an education that would be other
wise neglected, and to-day are happy
prosperous and blessed with a home of
their own.
Should we not feel grateful that all
who wish to become identified with this
noble order can easily do so now since
tlie membership fee of $10 heretofore
charged to applicants, has been remov
ed. Only the medical examiner's fee
one quarter's dues aud one month's as
ses8ment is all that is required of the
applicant.
You insure your house, your gin
house, your stock of goods, why not in
sure your life when such an opportuni
ty is before you?
The assessment principle is easy to
understand. It is not constructed upon
a system of abstruse calculations that
only an expert actuary can understand
and moreover one always knows just
what he is paying for. "I have butone
lamp by whichmy feet are guided," said
Patrick Henry, "and that is the lamp of
experience. I know of no way of iudg
ing of the future but by thr- past.
This is a good rule to apply to a judg
ment of the oi der to which we belong,
