I k Edgar F. Phillips Killed by Grover j Harter, Who is Lodged in Jail. Barnwell, November 24.?Edgar F. ; Phillips, of Ulmer, the rural mail car- \ i rier of parcel post fame, was shot and killed in the store of Willie Brant, at j Ulmer, Thursday night of last week by \ Grover Harter, a son of Dr. A. J. Harter. The weapon was an automatic . pistol. Two shots were fired, it is said, L only one of wMch took effect. The ^ ball entered Phillips s bod? In the re-1 gion of the heart, causing almost %in- j stant death. Harter has been arrests' ed and is now in the county jail. From what can be learned here Phillips and Harter had been involved in some previous difficulty, as a result of which, it is alleged, the latter made threats against the life of ! < Phillips. There was a clash between ! the two meja... several* days agdoand a warrant was sworn out*by. > Phillips ( charging Harter with assault and battery. The case was to have been tried before Magistrate Williams, at Ulmer, r on Friday morning. Phillips was in the store of Willie r Brant Thursday night between 7 and c S o'clock making some purchases. As a he turned to leave, his arms full of f bundles, according to eye-witnesses, l two shots were fired from the door- a day. Phillips cried, "Boys, he's got a me," and staggering a few feet , fell a behind the counter, where he died in i] _ i. a icw HHI1UU35. a mmm s Two Have Given Bond. p Spartanburg, November 24.?Follow- v ing the example of Jesse Wolfe, Robert Ward, another of the four men ti accused by the grand jury of partici- n pation in the attack on the jail on 13< August 38 by a mob bent on lynching j b no I ! our demonMAJESTIC mie) we will r are as ill us- ?YIA\J ; best of its ed in'everv B/' * ^fT , . , " If!

With his skull fractured, ihe was found on that date lying beside j the railroad track. He has been uncon- j scious since except at fitful intervals, when he muttered a few unintelligible words. Sensational developments in connec- : tion with the prosecution of the alleged members of the lynching party are i expected in the near future. < INVESTIGATION OF ] SAYY'S BEEF DEAL < i Congressman Britten Wants to Know If Public Can Do Same?Aims to t Lower Meat Price.

THE TOWN OF POMARIA. >'ew Churches and a Good School? Men and Women All Interested. Good Teachers. Dear Mr. Editor: Once or twice be fore taree years ago .I ;jsa,wJPpip^ria. Having been brought up in Edgefield county, and having no business in this part of the land in those golden days o% hallowed youth, I was not well acqiiairted wjth Pomaria. Three years ago, when I came to live near this lit- ' tie town, although in the land of my : fathers, among kindred, many said, j1 "Who is that?" Maybe I said the same. One thing about the town struck ( me forcibly. Some migfat jokingly say i the policeman's baton or "billie'\ Xo, > not that. There was no high school, 2 and really not mucfa of any { kind. I am interested in educa- j I :ion, next to religion; tor scnools are i lext to the church. ? 1 told some of the Pomaria people v :hat I wanted to talk schools to them, t md I did talk it a little. I was told ha: the town wanted a church first t' ind next a school. The Lutheran f< ihurch was soon built; and then the tl tfetuiodist church. When the churches j< lad lifted up on high their sacred t1 pires we looked around for a modern ii chool house?and there it was! It had b tot sprung up in a night; but there it s< vas. It may be hard for the traveler T .long the "King's Highway" to find ei ome parts of the town, lying so low fl ,nd so near the little creek; but the si hurches are on higfher ground, and tl he school-house on higher ground ? till. si . ration n i l 6th G . * . i. c . i , j T ^ ifr^^jp^S ' !

Down-stairs are two large recitation1 roms, two cloak rooms and a principal's room. The material is of brick. Nearby is a deep well full of pure water, used only by the school. , The play grounds are ample. "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.'' There are three teachers. A principal, an assistant and a music teacher. The principal used to be a little boy?but he is not little any more?in my Sunday school class and church in Georgia.
