Probably Fatally, Wounds A nother. About dusk Sunday evening Will ; Marshall shot and killed Annie Davis and then shot her sister, Minnie Sub er, wounding her very seriously, perhaps fatally. The shooting occurred I at the crossing attove High Point on the Southern railroad. The man met the women and they got into a row of words. Marshall wanted Minnie, who 1 was his woman, to go on home. Annie , told him nobody was scared. He said; he would shoot her. She cursed him i and dared him to shoot. He shot and j missed her. With a fearful oath she; told him to shoot again, which he j did, the shot proving fatal, the wo- j man dying in a little while. He shot ih - other wo.na.i. shooting both in the, - i anaomen. Marshall came to town Monday i morning and opened his place of busi-; ness, which he has been running at the corner of Friend and McKib'ren streets. He was arrested by Policeman Sam Johnson and turned over 1c Sheriff Blease, who committed him to i jail. Coroner F. M. Lindsay held the in- j quest, assisted by Constable P. F. Baxter. T'.o verdict of the jury was in accordance with the facts, i It seems that Will Marsha'1 aspired tc be considered a "bad negro." Couple years ago he shot a colored boy, and about two weeks before thar. event he had shot at Wm. Sligh, missing him. UMALMilAn^- in r^/ilii ni _ ' .>t;YV UCI I V i wiicge Iicsiucui ill vviuiuJjia. The State. , Dr. J. Henry Harms, president of | Newberry college, spoke to the men j of Columbia at the Columbia theatre 'yesterday afternoon, using as his theme "The' House That Jack Built." The theatre was well filled. Dr. Harms' 'address was one or mucn iorce ana was thoroughly enjoyed by those present. i He began by speaking of nursery rhymes, and said that they are of more significance than the ordinary man realizes. He gradually developed this part of the subject until he ! came to "The House That Jack Buiit." Hers he naused and went into a deep, : thorough discussion of this famous Verse. Every man, he saia, is Jack. 1 The house is character. He asked what kind of material is the house j built of? Has it a good foundation? He impressed the fact that there must be intelligence, sympathy?in fact, all j the elements of true character in this foundation. Dr. Harms' address was ! instructive and pleasing. Dr. Harms is well known not only in Columbia, but throughout South i Carolina, and a number of other States as an entertaining speaker. He brings a message of helpfulness t i tnose wno are endeavoring uu suivri i'some of the problems of the times. Dr. *Harms is a student of men and affairs. As a pastor of one of the largest churches in Harrisburg, Pa., he rallied around him the support and i interest of a large body of the men of his church. Dr. Harms came to th^ presid-ency of Newberry college directly from the* [ pulpit of the church in Harrisburg as j ; the youngest man ever called to the j i presidency of this college, and in his i association with the people of the ! State, especially by his appearance on *the lecture platform, he has at once 1 formed a wide circle of friends who ''aHrniri him for his Pflrnestliess and I UdAAAAAV, -W* sincerity.
