One Negro Kills Another.
A homicide having, apparently, all
tho clements of deliberate murder, oc
currcd almost in the very center of
Anderson early Saturday night last.
Tom Parks was the victim and Ld
Robinson the slayer, both negroes.
Tlie killing was thu result ot jealousy
and threats. The weapon used was a
shot gun.
Immediately back of thu stand pipe,
which is located on McPullie street,
there isa hedge which is some distance
from au arc light and produces at
night a dense shade. Herc thc negro
Robinson secreted himself, and with
gun in hand awaited I'ai ks, whom he
evidently knew would pass thal way
returning from the Jionie ol'tlx* wo
man. Park's pushed ubuiil 9 o'clock
and thc fatal shot was tired. I'ol ice
man Campbell ? ?is I he first to leach
the seen?-. Parks was found in a semi
conscious condition ?:i (lie gut 1er willi
blood spurt in;.* Iron?a len ?Ide wound
in the guim. Rollinson hud tied. Phy
sicians were summoned und arrived
promptly, hui life was almost extinct
und tiny eon ld do nothing to save him.
ile was removed lo his mother*? home
and died shortly afterwards.
Search was nt once instituted for
Rollinson, hut no tine?- ol' hun could he
lound, und as no bloodhounds were
available the search uns iihaudoiied.
J/omluy morning, however, Policeman
Hal Power gol a clue that he was in
the city and finally lound kim Jud in
Mi. A. I. Wi ch's Mill. Th? negro
did nut resist arrest und claimed that
he was on his way to surrender him
self to thu sherill'.
Monday afternoon this reporter saw
Robinson in his cell tit the jail und en
deavored to get him to make a state
ment, tint he either did not want to
talk or could not talk. Ile appeared
excited and frightened, biting his lips
in his effort to keep from trembling.
In answer to questions he finally saul
that his home, is in Williamston; that
he has worked sonic for Mr. Welch
and on the sewerage; that hu is about
21 years old; that Parks was constantly
"picking'' at him and bad threatened
many times to kill him. He said that
Alic? Ducworth, living two miles ihn
hid? of Williamston, is his mother, and
that he went to her house .Saturday
night; that they persuaded him (ogive
himself up and his step-father cullie
whit him to the city for that purpose.
When asked if any conversation passed
l< .veen him un tl Parks before the
. Miling, lie replied, "N??." All that
ne said caine reluctantly and in broken
sentences and hu tinnily walked oil'
With thu remaik, "You all will hear all
ut the trial."
Parks was well known in thu city and
did not have an enviable reputation.
Hu was of strong, athletic build,
"mouthy" and quarrelsome with his
o:- race. Robinson was a stranger
h.i., comparatively, but pretty well
known in police circles for petty of
fences. Ho is of slight build, looking
more liko a boy thuu a man.

For some time the business peoplu ot

was the lirst requisite of such business
relations and in addition to quicker
business communication, that Charles
ton and hur interusts would bo brought
into closer daily contact by thu leading
newspaper getting into that section as
early as othur nuwspapurs nnd b'.,''\u'

Southern Railway, respondive to this
request and ta bind the two sections,
has announced anew train which will
loave Charleston evory morning at 3:20
o'clock and make a fast schedule for
the up-country. This new schedule,
which is now in effect, will bring mail
and passengers direct from Charleston
and intermediate points. The new
train will reach Anderson at 11:10 a. m.
it will be of interest to know that thia
new schedule will bring The News and

the Biggest October gales of

Dry Goods,
Millinery,
In plain, straight-forward, earnest manner. We put all the
effort at c ar command in back ine up our advertisement. The
success of last month is m&king us take hold of November
business with unusual vim and vigor, and we have shoved
off the first few days far ahead of anything known to us be*
fore.
This Store has a tremendous Stock of Goods to disposo of*
It will be to the interest of all buyers of Dry Goods, Shoes*
Millinery, Clothing and Gents' Furnishings to decide on
making their bill with us.
The $5, (7.50, $10, aB well as the $16 and $20 Suits, scored
a great hit in the Clothing side this October.
Whilst we didn't quite do as much business in October as
we have formerly done in the early Fall, we come close on to
the margin line. We have a plenty of Clothing left, and are
