opportunity to see the story on

i The dead body of an unknown
negro man, apparently about 40
years? of ape, was found along-}
side the Southern Railway tracks
early Sunday morning at a point
several miles north of Fort Mill.
From the appearance of the body
it was the opinion of those who
visited the scene that the man
either fell from or was struck by
a passing train sometime during
Saturday night. Nothing was
found on the body by which it
could be identified, and the burial
was made at a point near where
the man met his death.
Seeks Cow's Geneaology.
in this community with fields
and barns full of alfalfa, crimson
clover, fodder and such
things to tempt the appetite and
delight the soul of a cow, it is
somewhat discouraging to find
one in the community so degenerate
as to show a Jondness
for old newspapers, rubber coats
and "things" which flourish on
the clotheslines. And yet Alex j
earner voucnes lor the tact that
he owns a cow who possesses
this depraved taste. He says
that she has an especial fondness
for mail-order catalogues
and will eat dirt on occasion.
This dissipation does not seem
to affect the supply and quality
of milk which she gives*but it is
Mr. Barber's intention to trace
her pedigree in an effort to
ascertain if there can possibly be
a strain of billy goat in her blood.
