T.here were two cutting scrapes in the city on Saturday afternoon. Jno. Glenn slashed Dennis Renx%ick on the left breast making a gash bout six inches long, but not deep enough to touch any vital part, though Renwick bled profusely. The cutring took pace on the street near the store of E. A. Griffin & Co. Just what gave rise ro it we do not know. Ren wick is the step father of Glenn and they had some words and while words do not justify blows in the eye of the law those who heard the row say Renwick was largely in fault. Ren wick was sent home and as soon as his wound will justify it he and Glenn will appear before the mayor to ex plain. At Jor:es ice .house the same after noon Jim Gallman cut Frost Bfzwn in the neck, but not seriously.

A picnic dinner will also be enjoyed and everybody is invited to come with well filled baskets Sensational Meeting. Abbeville Medium. There was a sensational meeting at Young's Grove in Newberry counEy last week at which the disp;ensary was discussed. Most of the speeches were against the dispensary. Senator Blease spoke for the dispensary and stirr*d up the audience. The speak ers against the law were not inter rupted at all but when Blease was talking he was first interrupted by i A C. Jones, one of the speakers and 1 afterwards by R,v. C. M. Boyd of the I Associate Reformed Presbyterian < church. Blease spoke of there being a great number of rascals in the churches and that seems to havie given offence to Messrs. Jones and Boyd. i After Blease had finished the crowd I called for Mr Boyd and he made a short speech. The Nfewberry Herald and News says: "When Mr. Blease left the stand, he was halted Iby Rev. P. H. E. Per rick. who challenged some state ments Mr. Blease made in his spieech. flatly contradicting him. Mr. Blease i apparently tried to avoid a difficulty and he turned and walked off, leav ing Mr. Derrick still talking. who, before Mr. Blease had gone fift'een feet, said: "And if you deny it. you are a liar." Mr. Blease walked on off as if he had not heard the remark." "Novel procdedings" are always in order in Newberry. Nothing of the kind was ever seen in South Carolina before that we can recall. We see no reason why Mr. Boyd should take offense for Senator Blease had no reference to his church as no rascals belong to it and it nev'er takes "blood money." In the Derrick matter Senator Blease certainly acted with dignity and propriery. If he had shot Der rick or struck him there would have been such a.howl as was never heard lefore. One had as well strike a woman as a preacher is the general idea. Mr. Derrick is too belligerent to preach brotherly love. His chief distinction hereafter will be not that fe preached a good sermon but that he "called Cole Blease a liar." He ought to have prayed for Senator Blease and should do so now for the command is to "pray for those who despitefully use you" instead of get ting up a fist fight. The scriptures teach us and we repeat from an exchange, t.hat, "He that is slow to anger is ber ter than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he -that taketh a city." "If any on among you seem to be religious ahd bridleth not his tongue but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain." "Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from trouble." "Ot of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethern, these things ought not so to be." "Not that which goeth into the mouth defileth a man; but that which :ometh out of the mouth, that defileth a man." __ _ _ _ _ Dispensary Election Ordered in York. , The State.
