Sheriff Buford returned .on Wed iesday from Georgia, where he ar ested George Walker, who is cliarg-. d with thO'killing of Nelse Payne at hiappolls in December, 1905. Whalker is now in' jail and will wait his trial on the charge of mur or at the next term of the sessions ourt. John Walker, who was indicted as ii accessory to the murder, was ar ested at the time, but has been out it bail awaiting the arrest of George Valker. The following is a synopsis of the 2stiiony as printed in The Herald nd. News, which was taken at the Droner's inquest ill December 1905: The killing occured at Chappells it Saturday, December 2. It appears com the testimony taken at the cor ier's inquest that Nelse Payne, John al'ker, George Walker, West Bates nd John Wilson were in a seed house t Chappells gambling. George Walk e and John Wilson started to quar A. and West Bates took John Wil 3 and carried him out of the house. olin Walker, one of the witnesses 6vorn at the inquest, says that Nelse ayne thOen jumped up and grabbed corge Walker, and George told Nelse > leave him alone; that Nelse Payne eld on to George and told George to ut it to him and George shot him. hat Nelse had no weapon. That eorge told Nelse lie would shoot him he did not turn him loose and Nelse id him to put it to himl. Melnot Dowdry, another of the itnesses sworn at the inquest, said iat when lie got to the seed house icre was a fuss going on, and John Talker and George Walker had their istols drawn on Nelse Payne. That 1est Bates carried John Wilson out. hat Nelse did not put r1is hanlt on 11e and Nelse did not have a pis w. h eorge Walker shot Nelse. 1he coronerl's jury eharged ,Geore Ealker with the killing. and 'John Jalker as accessory. Thiie following in regard to the ar Lst of George Walker in Spread, eorgia, by Sheriff Buford, is taken rom the Augusta Chronicle of Wed esday: Last Sunday afternoon a Chronicle ian who was strolling in Lake View 'ark eaught sight of a figure that is -ell know through the length and readth of South Carolina, and has een seen more than once on this side f the Savannah-a gentleman wit-h road-brimmed lhat, and grey mus ache and steel-blue eyes, a Confed rate soldier every inch of him heriff M. M. Buford, of Newberry ounty. "What's doing?'' asked the repor Lr, after shaking hands. "'My son, just forget you'Ve seen le,'' saidl the sheriff. Yesterday evening wh'len the Au usta Southern rolled in, Sheriff Bu ort alIighted with a vicious-looking 'risoner securely hiandeu ffed, George Valker by name, wvanted for murder, nd bearing as bad ai reputation as ny negro who ever crossed the river 0 escape the law. Theli sheriff was seen later~ at the lenesta Hotel, and told the story of he chase. One year ago last Dc ember George and( John Wnihker, rothers, quarrelled with a comupan an, Nelse Payne, in a cotton-seed 0o1se at Chiappehll's dlepot, near New ierry. Payne was shot and killed, and t developed at the Coroner's inquest hat George had fired the fatal shot, chile John who had made. no attempt o escape, was held as an accessory. George Walker was heard of in -arious parts of the south, jumping apidly from one locality to another, rorkinig most of the time in sawv nills, but never staying long in any mle place, until a week or twvo ago twas rumored that he had changed is ntame to Johnson Carter and had ettledi down near Spreadl, Ga. Sheriff Buford hit the road at once. Ie -picked up a darkey wvho knew Vaker, and proceeded to Spread. At pread the sheriff got off on the .vrong side of the train and dodged nuto a hotel. In less than five mninu es his negrro assistant had located WValker 's wvhereabouts. By a queer coincidence Walker had een arrested that very morning for ome minor offense, but had been im nediately released upon a satisfae ~ory adjustment of the case. The aid >f Constable John H-ughes was secur ed and night before last, a. search wvas inade. This was so skillfully, conduct id that though the negro 'was not found ini ainy of his usual haunts, his mapicions weore not aroused, and yes terday morning he wAfs arrested with aut difficulty. Sher iff. Buford had already tele. p)honed to Governor Ansel for'roquisi tion papers, and had mean'while tals. an out,a fugitive warrant befoi'e Con. stable T. J.

Of course it should be un lerstood that if these parlor cars ar( tot suffleiently patronized to warrani lie road to continue them, they wil lot be kept in serviee. The cost i -ery small and it is hoped that thes( jars will be used by the traveling )ublic so that they iay be iiade per nanent. It should be renembere< hat the Southern Railway put thes( -ars on without any request or peti ,ion or solicitation from the patron f the road, thus evidencing on th )art of the Southern its desire to giv he people along its line the very bes ;ervice possible, and if sufficient en -ouragemeitt is given of course th trains will be made permanent. I s understood that these cars ar quipped so as to be utilized as caf ars, and all that is necessary is t( bave then stocked. It would seem i they were made cafe cars that i would make them more popular. Thes :rains do not stop any where for diu ner between Greenville and Coluin bia, a distance of about 150 iniles. If the authorities had assurant that the public would appreciate th cafe ser-vice, it is probable that i would he put on.
