BLE.tE AiPPOINTEES EINJOINED. Judge Gage Issues Order in Beaufort Case-Petitinn Presented at Wal t rboro. Beaufort, July 4.-Through a tem porary injunction issued yesterday at Walterboro by his honor, Judge George W. Gage. the township commissioners appointed by Governor Blease for Shel kiou. Bluffton and Yemassee townships, in this county, are restrained from ex ercising the authority of their office ;.ni a hear is had and either a per ma::nt injunction granted or the or :er of yesterday dsisolved. The re ;training order was issued in response to a petition presented through their attorney, J. S. Griffin, of Walterboro, by men whom the Beaufort delegation in the general assembly recommended. The hearing this matter will likely be held September 4, the order requiring the commissioners to appear and show cause why they should not be perma nently enjoined at the September ses sion of court for Beaufort. It is recalled that in appointing-the township commissioners for Beaufortl county Governor Blease disregarded the recommendations made by the Beaufort delegation, causing at the. time considerable stir. On March 9,! before Judge Gary, at Walterboro, a petition was presented in the St. Hel ena township contest; a similar re straining order was issued and upon a hearing some days later Judge Gary ruled that the Blease appointees were illegal, and the injunction was made permanent. Yesterday three other townships took the matter up. Treasurer and Supervisor Restrained. Another order issued by Judge Gage yesterday was a temporary injunction upon County Treasurer Gus Sanders and Supervisor J. S. Claghorn re-1 straining these officers from paying out any of the county's funds upon order of the township commissioners Involved in the proceedings mentioned above. This part of the contest, being contingenit upon the outcome of the othe, will, of course, be settled at the hearing in September. YOUTH SHOOTS FATHER. Elder Kirkland Said to Have Mistreat * d Wife--Slayer Not Yet Under Arrest. Camden, July 3.-McRay Kirkland, of West Wateree section was killed by his son, Willie Kirkland, early this morning. It seems that there was; some family trouble and Willie Kirk land was protecting his mother. Mc Ray Kirkland, it is said, attacked his wife last night and forced her to leave the house and stay outdoors all night. She sought refuge at the house of neighbor early this morning. Just af ter daybreak Kirkland- drove over to -the neighbor's house and called them out. He grabbed his wife and threw her into the buggy, drew a big knife and defied anybody to hinder him in his actions. About this time Willie Kirkland came up and asked his father to re lease his mother. When his father 'refused and threatened him, he sent for his pistol and again demanded that his father release her. Again his fath:er refused. Then Willie shot him once in the head, killing him instant ly. The first time he pulled the trig ger the pistol snapped. Cocking it again, he took careful aim and fired the fatal shot. McRay Kirkland has a bad reputa tion, and is considered a dangerous. man, while his son is a very quiet *young man is well thought of in his section of the county. It does not ap -Pear that McRay Kirkland was intoxi cated, but was almost insane with an-! - ger. Willie Kirkland has not been ar rested, .but is said to be on his way ;here .to give himnself up. ~FOURTEEN MIlLIONi ESTIMATE.
