SHOOTING AT SILVER.
A very sad tragedy occurred lasi
Sunday night about two miles fron
Silver at the home of Mr. Thomas K
'Rbame, in which Mr. Rhame lost his
life and his brother Frank was
wounded.
The report that reached us lasi
Monday morning was in effect as fol'
lows:
Mr. Ralph S. DesChamps was, by
invitation, visiting the Rhame family
Sunday evening, and speni
the evening pleasantly with the
ladies, laughing, talking, and singina
hymns, in which the Rhame boys
joined in; about seven 01
eight, o'clock he started tc
go home, and was asked
by Tom Rhame to remain longer, tc
which DesChamps replied that it wai
getting late and he must be gone.
Tom went into the house and Des
Champs requested one of the ladies
to asist him with his overcoat, and
while he was getting it on Rhame re
turned, pistol in hand, and fired al
DesChamps. Surprised at the attaci
DesChamps dodged around the
young lady who was assisting hiti
with his coat, and returned the fire
Rhame was struck twice out of the
three times DesChatmps fired,. Rbatm
fired once but missed his mark. Mr
Frank Rh ame, a brother, rushaed for.
ward to stop the shooting and be wat
hit in the breast above his heart
Tom Rhamne died from' his wounds ir
about thirty minutes and DesChampi
Ijumped over the banister and left
leaving his horse and buggy, but af
terwards some of his relatives weni
there for it.
There does Dot seem to be any the
cry for the action of Tom Rhame
We do not vouch for this statemen1
being entirely accurate, but it is at
we received it, and the courts will n<
.doubt investigate the cause and wh<
is to blame, etc.
The affair is to be deplored. Boti
the slayer and the slayed are young
men with fine, family connections ant
the two bovs were raised in the sam<
neighborhood and had been clos
fiiends. Rhame wvas a nephew o
Mr. A D. Rhame, and DesChampsi
a son of the late Hon. Louis H. Des
Champs.
Magistirate T. B. Owens held th
inquest Monday and the jury returne<

A YOUNG MAN DIES ALONE.
There was a ghastly find at Davis
Cross Roads last Friday evening in
the store occupied by Mr. A. J.
O'Neill, and belonging to Mr. Jeff M.
Davis. On Friday morning Mr. Jeff
Davis went to the store and knocked
on the door. Receiving no response
he asked a colored boy for Mr.
O'Neill. The boy said that when Mr.
O'Neill -tired Thursday night he re
queste* that he not be disturbed
early in the morning. The bcy was
in the habit of waiting on Mr.
O'Neill. Not expecting anything
wrong within, Mr. Davis went off to
spend the day with friends, and
when he returned home that evening
about dusk someone told him that
nothing bad been seen of O'Neill and
that he had not gotten up. This
caused Mr. D:;is to go to the store,
and not being able to receive a re
sponse to his repeated rappings, he,
accompanied with others forced an
entrance, and there they they found
the object of their search lying in his
bed in a natural position, but cold in
death.
He was undressed and the covering
partially over his face and head, as
was his customary way of sleeping.
His face was somewhat discolored,
and the odor in the room indicated
that the man had been dead for sev
eral hours orobably from the night
before.
The deceased was about thirty
nine years of age and unmarried. He
had relatives in Charleston. Mr. Da
vis telegraphed tc them and his
brother, Mr. J. P. O'Neill, came in
response.
The body was so decomposed that
it was concluded not to take it to the
city, so they buried it in the St. Paul
church yard on Saturday.

A VALUABLE PRESCRIPTION.
Editor Morrison of Worthington, Ind.,
"Sun," writes: -You have a valuable pres
cription in Electric Bitters, and I can

and sick headache, and as a general system
tonic it has no equal." Mrs. Annie Stehle,
2625 Cottage Grove Ave., Chicago, was all

A City of Bridges.
Few people realizc that Chicago to
day possesses mr.ore bridges in number
than any nther city in America. Col
lectively .ney c."itute a greater total
length ;n miles than any :ther system.
The extent of a single , an of one of
the swing bridges is greater thaa that
of any other bridge. ModernA bi dge con
struction is embodied in a.d illustrated
with a greater variety of perncted
mechanical devices in Chicago thin is
the ease in any other ci.y in the w rld.
Standing out like monuments erected
to engineering skill, to a people's enter
prise, and to mechanical perfeqaon,
th~se bridges present a greater variety
of admirable features and are evidences
of better workmanship than can be
founnd in the best of all the cities in
either the old or the new world.
Chicago has 68 bridges spanning the
river and its branches at every point
where commerce and traffic demand a
passageway. There are 88 systems of
viaducts, which bespeak as many safe
guards for the people agi:inst the dan
gers of railroad tranuorsation.
Represented among these 68 bridges
is to be found every description of swing
or drawbridge which the world possess
es today that is of practical value. They
constitute within a radius of a few
miles a congeries of mechanioal devices
which captivate the spectator with their
perfection and diversity of arrange
ments.-Chicago Inter Ocean.
A Dog Makes Sunday Visits.
A bright terrier dog owned at the
American House, Pittsfield, Mass., is
known at the Maplewood as Billy. The
dog every Sunday morning goes to the
Maplewood and stays in the cashier's
office, but never goes away from the
American on other days unless taken to
the Maplewood. Sundays, as regularly as
that day comes, in the season, the ani
mal takes up his early march for the
other house, remains all day and re
turns. This he has done for the past few
seasons, and so regularly that the guests
at the Maplewood have become familiar
with him and his peculiarities. Now
they are asking how the dog knows the
difference between Sunday and other
days, as his visits are made before the
church bells begin to ring.-Boston

Noise and Numbers.
A Yankee, upon eating his first meal
of frogs' legs, asked the hotel proprietor
how he accounted for the high price.
He was told it was on account of the
scarcity of the product. "Not at all,"
said the Yankee. "I can get you
1,000,000."L "A million?" gasped the
boniface. "I should like to engage to
find you a profitable market if you can
produce them. " "Why, I can get them
today surely." At night the Yank came
back with eight pairs and declared the
trick off. "I thought you said you knew
where you could get 1,000,000," said
boniface. t'Well, to tell you the truth,"
explained the other, "I formed my judg
ment of the number by the noise."-San
Francisco Argonaut.
A reculiiar Feeling.
The sensation of homesickness has
-been variously described, but never
more graphically than by a little girl
who, miles away from home and main
lma, sat heavy eyed and silent at a hotel
table.
"Aren't you hungry, dear?" asked
her aunt, with whom she was traveling.
"No."
"Does your head ache?"
"No."
S"What is the matter?"
The cGild's lip quivered, and she
said in a tone to grieve the heart, "I'm
so seasick for home. "-London Tit-Bits.

never to greet it again until the fina

shall be made known and we shal
be required to give an account of ou
actions during 1896, and as we are
about to enter upon the new year
with its many bright hopes and an
ticipations, we are dreadfully in
clined to be sentimental, but as the
Herald already has one or two of
that class of correspondents, we will
restrain and retain our sentimentali
ty until another time and occasion.
Well, Christmas has come and
gone. To some of us quite unevent
ful, while others had a lively time.
1r. and Mrs. J. I. Brogdon, both
proverbial for their great-hearted
hospitality, entertained very hand
somely on Christmas day and night
about thirty-five guests. Their son,
Mr. Eddie Brogdon, was at home
from Florence, and Miss Addie from
the Sumter Institute, for the holidays,
bringing with her two young school
friends from Virginia, Mlisses Gilkison
and MIcPheeters.
The Christmas tree at Graham
church on Christmas eve night was
largely attended and much enjoyed
by all present. The thee was of gen
erous proportions and bore a number
of nice presents, which gladdened
many hearts. We were told of one
juvenile who sat quite near, and at
every down-pour of gifts would beg
for more, more, still more. That lit
tle fellow certainly possesses the
requisite qualities to get on in the
world. Expect to hear from him
again some day.
Our schools closed for the holidav
on last Thursday. Misses Holley
man and Richardson, the teachers,
are enjoyi ng their season of rest.
liss R. is visiting in Sumter, while
MIiss H. remains in the neighbor

Our widower seems more irresisti

success in that direction.
At this writing would not forget tc
mention the flourishing store of Mr
W. T. Brogdon. It certainly is e
great convenience to the neighbor

Disposal of the Dead.
In the practical application of his
theories Moleschott animadverted on the
prevailing customs of burying the dead
in permanent cemeteries, where thenz
bodies decay with no advantage and
often with serious injury to the living.
"If every place of burial," .he says,
"after having been used a year, should
be exchanged for a new one, it would
become in the course of six or ten years
a most fertile field which would do
more honor to the dead than mounds and
monuments." But, he adds, it would
be still better it we could return to the
ancient custom of burning the dead,
which he declares to be unquestionably
more practical as well as more poetical.
By this process the air would be made
richer in carbonic acid and ammonia,
and the ashes, which contain the ele
ments of new crops of cereals for the
nurture of man and beast, would trans
form our barren heaths into luxuriant
plains. At present, he adds, we are act
ing like the stupid and slothful servani
who buried his one talent in the earth
instead of wisely investing it so as t<
gain another. -Popular Science Month
