STATUS OF THE COUNT
RleaM Lends for Governor with 33,864,
Against Featherstone's 21),
804.?How the Other Candidates
lUn, and Who Will be in the
Second Primary on Tuesday Week.
In the ?ace for Governor. Cole L.
Blease. of Newberry, has maintained
a lead over his nearest opponent, C.
C. Featherstone. of Laurens. The
relative standing of the six candidates
for Governor has not been
changed since early Tuesday night.
Thos. G. McLeod hold third place,
John G. Richards fourth, F. H. Hyatt
fifth, and John T. Duncan sixth.
The total vote in the first primary
will no doubt reach 105,400, somewhat
to the surprise of many who
expected a much lighter vote. The
rains of the Pee-Dee and Piedmont
apparently had little effect in keeping
the voters from the polls. Spartanburg
was the banner county, polling
over 8,000 votes. The voting was
lightest in the coast counties where
the terrific rains of Monday had put
the roads in such condition as to de- ,
tain many from the polls. ^
? Tn the race for Governor, Cole L.
Blease has 33,364, while C. C. Featherstone
has 29,964, a lead of 3,400,
the latter having more than a 4,000 1
lead over Thos. G. McLeod. Tne to
tal vote of the other three aspirants
amounts to about 16,000.
'Cole L. Blease, for Governor, carried
the counties of Aiken, Auderson.
Barnwell, Berkeley, Calhoun, Cherokee,
Dorchester, Fairfield, Horry,
Laurens, Lexington, Newberry, Pickens.
Richland, Saluda, Union and
York.
C. C. Featherstone carried 'he
counties of Abbeville, Colleton,
Greenville, Greenwood, Hampton,
Lancaster, Marion. Marlboro, Oconee,
Orangeburg and Spartanburg.
T. G. McLeod received a plurality
in the counties of Beaufort, Charleston,
Chester, Chesterfield, Clarendon,
Darlington. Dillon, Florence.
Georgetown, Lee, Sumter and Williamsburg.
For Lieutenant Governor, Charles
A. Smith, of Timmonsvllle, is elected,
receiving 68,906 votes to 44,001
for E. W. Duvall, a majority of nearly
15,000.
For Attorney General, J. Fraser
Lyon's vote is 72,585, while that of
B. B. Evans is 27,574, Mr. Lyon being
easily re-elected. It appears that
both candidates were freely scratched.
Col. W. W. Moore, of Barnwell,
and Capt. J. M. Richardson, of Aiken,
will make the race again for Adjutant
General.
The most interesting contest in the
entire list is the neck and neck race
between Hampton and Scarborough
to determine who shall make the race
with James Cansler for railroad commissioner.
About 138 votes seperate
the two, Hampton leading with 22,
634 to Scarborough's 22,496. Can- '
Bier's big lead is 40,896, being 16,323
over bis nearest competitor.
Of the five Congressional contests,
three were settled by Tuesday's primary,
Msesrs. Legare, Flnley and Lever
having been re-elected over their
opponents.
Second primaries will be held In
the 2d district between Messrs. J. F.
Brynes and J. O. Patterson, incumbent,
and in the 6th between Messrs.
J. B. Ellerbe. incumbent, and P. A.
Hodges.
For the second Democraltc primary
there will be five races, two fo?
Congress and those for Governor.
Adjutant General and railroad commissioner.
In a large majority of
the counties there are to ,bd contests
for county offices, many of them for
the Legislature, but whother ot not
these are of sufficient interest and
Importance to cause a large v -.te remains
to be seen.

Seaboard Fast Mail Runs Into Washout
In Georgia.
The Columbia Record says the
Seaboard Fast Mail, set down on the
time tables as yussenger train 66,
("rom Jacksonville ?o New York, had
left Savannah en route to Columbia
and beyond. The night had brought
to the Georgia coast counties the
heaviest rain In years, the precipitation
exceeding eight inches. At Exley,
a flag stop 1C miles north of
Savannah, the locomotive plunged
into a washout, with fatal results to
engineer Fred Pierce and fireman
Sam Dukes, colored. That no other
causalities occurred was probably
due to the fact that No. 6 6 is a very
heavy train, carrying several Pullmans
besides the rncnlar <>nmnla. I
ment of day coaches.
PANIC OX TROLIJCY.
Results in the I>oatli 0f a Paswngcr
And Injury of Another.
One passenger dead, another in
the hospital with severe cuts and
bruises about the head as a result
of a panic among the passengers on
a car of the Raleigh, N. C., street
railway about midnight Thursday.
The controller on the front platform
flashed luridly and six negro
passengers dashed to the ear platform,
jumping off as the car was
running 20 miles an hour. As they
ran between the aisles they knocked
down and trampled the conductor.
In jumping from the car, Rachael
Bryant sustained concussion of the
brain and died Friday morning; Mary
Bryant was severely cut about the i
head, but will recover. The flash of
the controller was harmless.

Who Will Hun Over.
The State Ilemocratic committee
met late Friday afternoon to canvass
the returns of the first Democratic
primary. The principal issue at
stake, to be settled at this meeting,
was whether G. McDuffle Hampton
or O. C. Scarborough should make
the race for railroad commissioner
against James Cansler. The official
count showed Col. Scarborough lead
ing BIb opponent by over 2,000 votes.
The relative standing of the other
candidates, and the results as announced
above, are very nearly correct.
A dispatch from Columbia says it
was learned Saturday afternoon that
there was a mistake of 3.000 votes
in the tabulation made by the State
executive committee Friday night,
by which McDuffle Hampton, son of
Gen. Wade Hampton, is in the race
for. Railroad Commissioned with Jas.
Caiisler, instead of O. C. Scarborough
being in the second race. The
mistake was in the Greenville vote.

Standing around a neighborhood

mother and five other women had
gathered to draw water, Theodore

killed, and all the women more or
; less seriously hurt by a bolt of lightening
from almost a clear sky Sunday
afternoon.

only to be told that France was
strong enough to win without needing
the help ot men of his age. One consolation
he had had. however?bis son
Rene, had been ordered to meet undei
the tricolor and the way in which he
parted, from his boy, showed all the
noblest traits of his character.
Today Jacques Gautier was out ol
humor. His proud dreams had all beer
destroyed, the eagles of France had
been trampled in the dust, it was the
Prussian eagle that had conqueied alio
that was now drinking the heart blood
of France.
? *
He now heard the voire of his wife?
dinner was ready. Jacques Gautier
stood up. but before he went in he
threw a glance toward the hills which
hid the l.olre from view and drew b
deep sigh. Oh, why was he not allowed
to ' fight for his country over
there at the side of Rene.
"But he did not fall in battle. He
deserted and they caught and shot
him."
"Impossible! No man could be such
a cowurd as to desert now, when every
man ought to put on a uniform to save
France. Who told you that silly tale?'
"It is no silly tale, Jacques, and
Jucques Petit, the carriage maker, whe
was in the village yesterday, said that
Doruis was not the only one. They are
deserting by the score.
"The miserable cowards and traitors!
" Gautier roared.
"Do not judge the poor boys tor
harshly, Jacques, it must be a terrible
life?they have no clothes, no shelter
no food. My heart Is nearly breaking
when 1 think of Rene. There is nc
night that 1 do not prnv to the saiuli
to send him home unharmed? "
An angry look silenced her.
"Rene," he thundered. "Rene should
dare to run away instead of giving his
life for his country! Listen to what !
say?ir Rene should desert and com*
to this house I would kill him witti
my own hands."
They finished the meal in silence
Then Mnrgnrite Gautier stood up tc
clear the table, but as she did so sh?
gave a piercing cry and Btaied in terror
at the door behind her husband.
"What is it, Margrite?" he aske<
without tuining around.
With an exclamation of impatience
Jacques Gautier turned around?ant]
for a second, he too, seemed petrified
but at last a sound escaped his lips
half a cry of anguish, half a curse:
"Rene!"
He made one step forward and then
stopped. "Father," he whispered
"father ~I have come?1 have comt
home because?"
Jacques Gautier stood up slowly,
"How is it that you are here, whilt
your regiment is awaiting the signal
to go Into battle?"
"I know, father, that you oondemr
me, but I could stand it no longer, wt
were freezing, starving and had hardly
a rug on our liodies while we were surminded
by a steel ring of bayonets, s
I "nd some others- because it was all
so hopeless, oh, so terribly hopeless!
Fa!her. then we left the regiment during
the night! Oh, father, you must
protect ine! They are close behind us;
they nearly caught me at dav. n, but I
got away. Within an hour they will la
here to search the house. For God's
sake, lather, hide me!"
He stretched his hands towards his
fa' her and the tears ran down his emaciated
cheeks. Jacques Gautier had
turned pale as a ghost, his lips trembled
and a terrible tire was burning ir

AN AWFUL NIGHT
t ?
[ TWENTY-SE V K X YEARS SINCE
( THE BIC? EARTHQUAKE.
Wrought Damage of Five Milliou
Hollars in Charleston and Killed
i
1 Twenty People and Hurt Many.
i
Last Wednesday was the twentyi
6'.\th anniversary of the terrible
> earthquake which shook Charleston.
causing damages to property aggregating
more than $5,000,000 and
> the loss of twenty odd people, killed
* outright and the injury of several
hundred, many of whom die?t from
, their injuries. All the older people
I remember what an awful night it
1 was. The following from the CharI
leston Post tfbout the earthquake
will be read with Interest:
The shock occured on a Tuesday
I night, at 9:54 o'clock. On the Friday
morning previous a slight shock
was felt by some people in Charleston
land Summerville, but the people
generally ridiculed the idea of an
earthquake until the great shock
came which left no doubt of a disturbance
of the kind having occured.
. The terrible visitation gave no warning.
There was a sudden rumbling
( noise, a puff of breeze, causing the
leaves to rustle and then the ground
I lifted and lowered w ith a wave like
motion and the buildincB tottered
, I and fell, burying hundreds in the
, ruins while those who could do so
, I made hasty retreats for the parks
I and open places, where many lived
p I for weeks after the great shock.
To add to the terrors of the occn,
sion, several fierce fires occurred in
the overturning of lamps. The engines
had difficulty in getting to the
tires on account of the debris in the
t streets and then some of the horses
.lot* the fire department forgot their
training and escaped from the sta- ,/
, tion houses. The fires were however
| I extinguished in the several sections,
, without contributing very materially
to the losses of property values.
The cries of the negroes who beI
I came hysterical, many believing that
, the day of judgment had come added
I no little to the terrors of the occasion
. I With the scenes of havoc and die,
tress on all sides robbery of residences
and stores was consequently
occurring and between protecting
, lives and property the police officers
.[had no small task on their hands.
. I With the congested crowds on the
| parks and open places the sanitation
1 j of these quarters became a problem
| to the health authorities.
? | In many ways and times, Charlesl
j ton passed through an ordeal which
, | few cities of the country had before
| endured. The terrors exceeded those
of fires and cyclones which had sev- ? .
enti nines laid a heavy hand upon .
i Charleston and to many, the scenes
, and experiences of the earthquake
j were worst than those of war.
Charleston lived through it all.
The city arose phoenix-like from her
> ; shes and it was not many months
I I efore the general evidences of the
disaster were completely oblitorati
ed. A close inspection of many
the presence of bolts, new plaster
' work and other work which beur in
buildings today in Charleston reveals
the outlines the story of the repairs
I of property and the rebuilding of
the city following the terrible visita
tion.
