>Y. P. Scott, Alleged Accomplice With
Dead Man in Terrorizing House
>ot Caught. |
Union, August 5.?At Lo^khart, in j
this county, about 4 o'clock yesterday j
morning, R. L. Henderson was j
shot and killed by Russell Gibson, a
deputy sheriff, at that place. It seems
that Henderson and W. P. Scott had
recently gone to Lockhart from Whitmire
and were boarding at the house
of a man named Broom. About S
o'clock Sunday evening these two
went into the boarding house after
supper time and Mrs. Broom told
them that they were late and could
get only cold supper. They demanded
a hot meal and finally, it is charged,
threw a fruit jar at one of the women
in th? house, cutting her arm. Mrs.
Broom's son then came up and was
beaten and upon the approach of the
husband he was covered with a pistol
by Henderson. One of the men walked
out and knocked down a young
man who was passing with a young
woman. Then, it is alleged, one of
them, presumably Henderson, fired
his pistol at T. I. Barber, superintendent
of Lockhart mills, who came
upon hearing the noise. Sheriff
Fant was notified of the trouble and
went to the scene at once and a
search was made for the troublemakers.
Finally Deputy Gibson and
two or tnree otners came upon ocou
and Henderson in the woods near
Lockhart between 4 and 5 o'clock
yesterday morning. Upon their showing
fight Gibson shot Henderson.
Scott escaped and has not yet been
captured.
TO ERADICATE TICK,
Pest Injures Hide as Well as the Body
of Cattle.
Washington, Aug. 4.?The presence
of the tick among cattle in the Southern
States not only lessens the value
cf cattle on the hoof, government evperts
said in a report published today
but causes a lower grading of hides
which means to tho producer a loss of
many ihousands of dollars. The ex*
perts clainr the Southern cattle raiser
loses $1.26 on every hide infested with
the tick.
Campaigns to eradicate the pest have
been waged with considerable success
by bureau of animal industry veteri-'
narians. Tennessee probably will be
the first State to be entirely free from
the quarantine against the tick, which
already has been eradicated in fiftyone
counties.
Cattle raisers have spent less than
fifty cents per head in the campaign
in Tennessee while they have gained
about $7 per head thereby. There are
500,000 head of cattle in t'ne counties
freed of ticks, and the immediate benefit
of these owners agricultural experts
say has been about $3,500,000.
College Reunion at Delmar
Lutheran Church Visitor, 31st.
The Newberry College reunion at
Delmar, Saldua county, S. C., on Friday,
July 25th, was attended by an
immense crowd of people from Saluda,
Lexington, Edgefield and Newberry
counties. Talks along educationel
lines were made by Judge Thomas S.
Sease of Spartanburg, Mendel L.
Smith, speaker of the State legislature,
Rev. C. P. Boozer of Leesville,
President J. Henry Harms, Professors
E. B. Setzler and S. J. Derrick, of
?1 J w OonnAlrrtoTJn
isewoerry a.uu r. uuaui
of Columbia. C. J. Ramage of the
Saluda bar presided. With tlje exception
of Newfberry, Saluda has for a
long time furnished more students for
the Newberry college lthan any other
county in the State, and this annual
reunion is always largely attended.
It is a great' occasion for a reunion
of college friendships between teacher
and student, and between fellow
students. At the same time it affords
an excellent opportunity for a canvass
of prospective college students from
that community. An important resolution,
passed at the reunion yesterday,
was that after this, the Delmar

colleges.
A Thorough Skeptic.
The cloakrooms of the houses of
congress are famous market-places
for the exchange of humor, and now
and then a good story finds its way
through them into the legislative hall
itself, and so into the solid type of
the Congressional Record. Here is
one told by Mr. Heflin of Alabama, to
the delight of his colleagues:
"I am reminded of a story of ola
Uncle Johnny. A friend said: 'Uncle
Johnny, they are going to build a railroad
through this settlement,' and
Uncle Johnny replied: 'My judgment
is they will never build it.' j
"But his friend said: They are sur
vefing now just a few miles from
here,' to which Uncle Johnny observed:
"There is a slight difference between
road surveying and road building.'
" 'Well, Uncle Johnny,' said his
friend, a few weeks later, ' they are
digging dirt over on the hill now,' and
{the old man replied: 'Dirt-digging and
road-completing are two powerful dif-;
ferent propositions.' i
"Finally his friend said: 'Uncle
tnvmnx' fhpv havp cnt. the road made!
they have finished the track, and the j
train has arrived; the engine is out
there on the track now. Go and look
at it."
"Uncle Johnny went out and looked
at it; cold and lifeless the engine
stood; and when they asked: 'What
do you think of it now. Uncle Johnny
ny?' he said: 'They'll never budge
'er. Why,' he says, 'I don't see any
traces or single-trees, and besides
that it ain't a fit track for mules, nohow."
" 'But you see,' his friend said,
'they are going to run it with steam.
They will unite the forces of wood and
wrater and fire, and send it down the
track pulsing like a thing of life.'
But Un:le Johnny said with conviction:
'They'll never budge her.'
" 'At last, when they had got steam
up, the engine went down the track,
whistle blowing and sparks flying.
" 'Well, Uncle Johnny,' said the man,
'what do you say now?' And he replied:
'By golly! they'll never stop
her.'"
Tlie Onion.
The wholesomeness of usually
strong enough to assert itself, but it
also has the indorsement of the
family doctor, who says that many
people imagine that to express a liking
for onions denotes a vulgar taste,
but this much-despised vegetable has |
many excellent qualities. It contains
? 1 n-t nitrncor OllC TTI31- I
H ictigt; uauitj ui uiuvbv^v?u ,
ter and uncrystali^able sugar with a [
pungent sulphuric j oil. If children !
were encouraged to eat onions, many
an illness might be prevented, and
many a doctor's bill saved. If baby
has a cold, or seems croupy, frequent
doses of onion syrup will give wonderful
relief. The syrup is obtained
by cutting the onion into slices, and
covering each with brown sugar, and
putting one on the top of another in
a basin
In a sickroom you cannot have a
better disinfectant than the onion.
When tviken inwardly it bas a wonderful
capacity for absorbing poisons
in the body.
Any Two >Yomen.
They were at the silk counter and
the one who was buying held some
folds of pink taffeta under her chin,1
says the Washington Star.
"Honest Mame, is it becoming?"
"Indeed it is, Carrie, I wouldn't
tell you so if I didn't think it."
"Well, I guess I'll take it?three
yards please. Oh, have I got to take
the whole remnant? Well, all right,
only I won't have any use for the other
quarter yard."
While the clerk was off wrapping |
up the purchase the Mame girl reached
down the counter a bit of delicate
blue charmeuse.
"This is what you oughta bought,
nrv,^ t xroar this shade it always

makes my eyes as blue as the sky.
You know the eyes always take on the
color you wear."
"Then why didn't ym say so before
I went and bought the other? You
don't suppose I want to look as if I
had the pinkeyes, do you?"
"Oh, you silly? Pink's just the very
color you want to take that pale look
off your cheeks?.And say, isn't this
cross barred plaid lovely?you'd a
looked dandy in this?."
^ "And had my eyes look cross
barred? No, thank you?,1 declare
? j -A.
Mame Blank, I am so mau HI ?uu iui |
advising me to get that -hateful old
pink that I've a mind to?
Then she stopped to look at a third
young woman, elegantly dressed, who
had bustled to the counter with a
sample of taffeta in her hand .
"Have you any more of this Nell
pink? My dressmaker has just
phoned for two yards."
The clerk regretted that the bundle
in his hands represented the last of
the pink taffeta which had been
bought by the young lac'.y. And the
young lady responded:
I "Oh, well, I don't want to spoil your
dress for you?.I've just as lieve have
I the blue?or the cross barred?. I
I guess I'll take the blue. Three yards
lis enough.?"
So she got the blue charmeuse and
was going away satisfied with the
change when the Mame girl put in:
"Say, Carrie, I wouldn't a done tha

Young Ornithologist.
The Sunday school teacher had discoursed
long and eloquently upon the
wonders of heaven, the glories of the
tropical foliage in the gardens, and
the angels with their beautiful white
wings walking up and down the marble
steps.
"Now, I want one of you little girls
f*to ask a question about the heaven
' which I have described to you," he
concluded.
There was a long pause. Finally after
a lot of coaxing a little girl arose
from her seat and asked:
"Please sir, if the angels have wings
why do they walk up and down the
steps?"
The teacher was considerably taken
aback. In sheer desperation he turnorJ
tho hnve nf tho rOscc and invitpd
! them to answer the question.
Presently a small boy stood up with
a grip on his face.
"I know teacher."
"Well, my little man. Speak out so
the class can hear you."
"I guess they was moltin." came
the instant reply.?New Orleans

THE OBSERVER SEES LIGHT.
Displays Splendid Spirit in Editorial
on "Mighty Poor Policy."?
Commendation.
Editor The Herald and News. City:
We have just read editorial headed,
"Mighty Poor Policy," in the Newberry
Observer, and we want to commend
the same to you for your most
careful thought and consideration. We
have seen many Newberry men candidates
for State positions, and often
wondered why it was that the editor
of the Newberry Observer took so
much pains to print articles detrimental
to the interests of those candidates.
We have seen resolutions sent
out by the ministers of our town
against Newberry candidates. We
have heard Newberry people curse
and abuse each other at home and
abroad, and seem to want to keep any
Newberrian from going forward in
life, and we have been at a great loss
to understand why the people of New
berry should be so bitter toward each J
other. When Anderson has a candidate
for a judgeship, when Greenville
has a candidate for a judgeship,
or Spartanburg or Sumter, or any
other counties of the State?particularly
Charleston?the entire bar
rushes to Columbia to make the fight
for their home man, laying aside
personal feelings. When Newberry
has a candidate many rush to Columbia
to fight him before the legislature,
and to show up all the evils
which they allege, whether they be
imaginary or real.
The editor of the Observer has
struck the proper line. What a pity
he and many others have not been
following it heretofore.
Our county has never had a United
States senate. She has had two chief
justices of the supreme court. It has
been many years since she has had a
congressman, and then she had one
only for a few minutes. She has now
the first governor that she has ever
had, notwithstanding she is one of the
oldest counties in the State, and has
had many of the ablest men in the
State in the halls of legislation, at
the bar, and elsewhere.
Yet, as the editor of the Observer
expresses it, the "pull-me-down" idea
has been the cry of a small coterie.
Yea, as he expresses it, internecine
struggle^ of this sort destroy community
interests and community
spirit.
We are glad that the Observer ha?
struck this happy lick and seen the
glories of a new rising sun upon
Newberry's political future. Had the
same spirit been displayed towards
the present governor of our State,
how much different would have been
his fight, and how much more pleasant
the recollections of his struggles
and his labors among the people
of the county of his birth. However,
we do not suppose these matters
worry him very much as he ies now !
sitting in the high temple and watches
the others go by as private citizens.
Get in line, Mr. Editor, with Mr.
Wallace, and stand by Newberry and
Newberry's people. This is what you
have been doing for more than a quarter
c-f a century, but I have no doubt
this late editorial of the Observer will
be hailed as the new gospel of a late
evangel.
Home Man.
A Writer of Fiction.
Irwin S. Cobb, the short story writer,
recently returned from a Western
trip to learn that a dear friend had
been snared in a lawsuit. He hurried
down to the friend's lawyer. "I want
you to call me as a character witness,"
said he. "Why, Jack Is the i
dearest, kindest, most hoc est white
man in the world. I've got to go on
the stand for that "boy."

w :uld happen. The other man's lawyer
would ask your occupation. And
you'd say: 'I'm a writer of fiction.'
And the lawyer would get up and
stand over you and look into the dark
i
I recesses of your soul for a time. And
by and .by, despairing of finding one
sweet, aspiring thought in you, he
would turn to the jury. And he would
exchange an intelligent libelous smile
with those 12 sturdy souls. And
then he would go back to his chair,
