(AKRIKD OPK^iV I.ION,
Thrilling Kxperleiy(e of a Ranger In
the Transvaal.
Two men at least have given accounts
of their I sensations when
they were carried off by lions?the
great explorer Vdvingstone and a
man named Wolhunter. a ranger o(
game preservers in\the Transvall.
Wolhunter's adventiVe is not secondary
in interest lb Livingstone's
experience. His story, which waa
attested by the eertxflcate of the
magistrate of the district, was substantially
aa follows:
He was riding anong a Kafir path
about an hour aster sunset. It ,.had
been a long jparcli, and He* had
pushed on ahand of his companions
His dog bark/d at something and a
moment, late/ Wolhunter saw a lion

hand side. Trhe ranger turned his
horse shnrplY, a circumstance that
no doubt couiaed the lion to miss
the spring. \
Wolhunter was unseated. At the
tame moment h<A saw another lion
coming from thejopposite direction.
The horse dasbe<r off, with the lion
in pursuit, andy the second |lon
picked Wolhunt/r up almost Before
he touched thtfground and gripped
blm by the right shoulder in snch
a position that \ie was face up. with
his legs and ImmU dragging underneath
the beast. A The lion trotted
down the path iuttnring a loud,
growling puring itoise.
Wolhunter'syftensatlons were not
those of lAvlmpitone, who said he
was in a staoe of aputhy, with entire
absence \of pain during the
fim? the lion Nad him. The game
ranger suffered ^^erribly, both mentally
and physicayy, and aaw ao
possible way to escape. ThaW fthn
took him nearly >200 yards. "
Suddenly Wojhunter bethought
him of his sheath knife, which he
mrrled In hls^nelt behind his sight
hip. On reaching a large tree With
overhanging/roots the lion stopped,
whereupon Wolhunter stabbed him
rwice la the side with hi- UN fc-J
It was ascertained afterwards that
the first stab touched the battels
of the heart and \he second oee

the beast to come af him again, but
it did not. InsteadI it tprned slowly
and, still growling, went a few
paces. Soon its gmjrls turned to
moans. These, in tuW ceased, and
the ranger knew that the beast was
then dead. J
Wolhunter got up if he tree as fast
ar his injured arm/would permit,
and hardly was he bested when the
first lion, which hall been after the
horse, came back on\ the trail of
blood. By this tlmd the plucky

A special to the Wugusta v'hronHcle
describing the Tearful wreck
and death in a head-on collision
near McCormick /recently, says:
"The greatest cry ml pain and claim
of injury, was putfup by a negro
woman. Jenny Pa|uie, of Greenwood
She was supposed to be badly
injured, and had a\large grip, of
which she took much; care during
the whole time. She was in the
car next to the bagt^ige car, and
her car was hurt sof little that less
than $f> repaired it.Vand it was on
another trip, to Greenwood last
night. When' an examination was
made of her und her baggage to
gain some identifleatlom of her, the
grip was opened and . found to be
full of bottled liquor. She was
proved to !>e hurt about the least
of all. and It is thought to have
been more sabred at < having her
liquor discovered tlmn anything
else." , f

"I was so very \ileuacd to hear

Spartanburg, A$. C.t Nov. 6.?Will
belue baa beeh released from the
county jail, hutin^ completed a six
months' sentence imposed upon him I
by the United i States Court in
Greenville for manufacturing whiskey.
Immediacy after Belue was
giren nis rreedom he returned to
hit home declaring that he would
quit this illegal bualneea.
The prlso?er\who in but 22 yearn
old, hat completed hla third sentence
in the jaili and each time he
was sent up toy the same offense. I
Hit father before him had also been
convicted of making liquor and sell- <
ing It in vlolmion of the laws of
both The State; and United States
Government. \.
The home of Belue is in the sec- J
tlou of North ahd South Carolina t
which it known as the "Dark Cornet."
It la composed of part of
Greenville, Pickens and Spartanburg
com.ties, which [border on the North
Carolina line. \Thls particular section
is a historicvcorner, and much
lias been writteu "about the habits
of the people there. Nearly all of
them make whiskepr, and some of It
is sold, while r greater part of It
is k? pt for their oWii personal uses.
They believe honestly that they
have inherited the right to make ^ ,
and sell whiskey _and that when the
officials of the State and the Un- vf
ited States raid tneir stills and de- vW1"
stray their outfits they are taking.,n '
awiy from them \Thelr rights and w ?

Belue is a peculiar character. He
said that he at /irst did not see
whv he should punished for maklne

? luu iue iwu previous
occasions wh^n he was in jail
he told the officers that he would
