KILLING AT CARNIVAL
Cowardly pes4 Committed by Homo
Unknown Farty lit Carnival.
J3aruwi>ll, Kpeeial.< ? Shcoting from
the dark, and hidden by thp deep
shadows cast by the blast"#
ot tli" carnival now in progress in
Barnwell, Perry Uaaery was killed
here Saturday night by in unknown
assassin. The killing is a mystery,
and no motive has Seen assigned n#
Usaery was a perfectly peaceable
party. He lived near Barnwell and
had eomo to town to onjoy the pleas
ures of the earnival. The shooting
occurred about 10:30 o'clock, and the
streets, were well filled with people.
Consequently the affair attracted
much attention, and many drew their
revolvers and fired into the shadows
that concealed the skulking coward.
In the melee Town Marshal Hurts was
shot in the leg, and Marvin Ilollen
was wounded in the neck. Hot 1* men
are supposed to have been wounded
by the hhots fired by the indignant
peoplo of Uie city. Ussery 'h body
was removed and an inqut'^ will bo
held, but it seems at this time that
littlo will develop, although every ef
fort will be made to d^cov?r> the
identity of tho man who fired lli'o
fatal load of buckshot tbnt sent Us
sery to his death,,
Mr. John Waldron Killed at Quarry.

happened will perhaps forever re- i
maiu a mystery, but. from whflt^cqjii
be >arutdJ from those who were

it seems that Waldron was having

drilled holes for the purpose of 1
cleaning;' it otijt ? ty . mince rCad i JotA

follow. In some unknown manner the
dynamite was exploded, two charges
going off almost simultaneously. The
