Negro Was Winner
Suit Against Officer
i - a { i ?
i Rock Hill, March 16.?A verdict
for $>600 damages against the National
Insurance company and Sheriff
James G. Howze of Chester county
was awarded to Pryor Bailey, Chester
county negro, late this afternoon by
a jury in Federal court for the western
district of South Carolina.
The suit for $10,000 entered by
the negro resulted from a wound he
received May 30, 1925, when he was
shot by Sheriff Howze on a highway.
The plaintiff charged that on that
day, as he was proceeding homeward
iti the Baton Rouge section he was
accosted by Sheriff Howze and a
deputy. He quoted the deputy sheriff
as asking the sheriff, "What do you
think of him," and the sheriff as replying:
"Go and get him." Bailey
said he had a pistol on his person
and fled, whereupon the sheriff began
firing at him, one bullet breaking
both bones in his right ankle, causing
him to spend three months in a
hospital suffering much pain and permanent
injury.
Sheriff Howze, who was made a
party to the action against his bonds
men claimed that he shot the negro
.in self defense, in performance of his
duties and because he suspected that
he was an escaped felon.
Safety First.
Doctor?You are looking far better
this morning than I expected.
Patient?I expect that is because 1
have followed the directions on the
medicine bottle.
"What are they?"
"Keep the bottle tightly corked."?
Stray Stories.
Fool and Mule Partnership.
Over on the hill trailed a man behind
a mule drawing a Dixie plow.
. These formed a radio. The rope lines
connected the two and the clodhopper
, was the broadcasting station,
i "Bill, you're a mule, the son of a
jackass, and I'm a man, made in the
( image of God. Yet, here we work
; hitched together, year in and year
> out. I -often wonder if you work
for mo or if I for you. -Sometimes
. I think this is a partnership between
a mule and a fool. For surely I work
the hardest of the two. Plowing here,
we cover the same distance, but you
do it on four legs and I on two. I
do twice as much work per leg as you
do.
"Soon we'll be preparing for a corn
crop. When the crop is harvested I
give one-third to the landlord for
being kind enough to let me use this
corner of God's universe. The other
third goes to you and what is left is
my share. But while you consume
all of your third with the exception
of a few cobs, I divide my third between
seven children, six hens, two
ducks and a banker. Bill, you are
getting the best of me; it ain't fair
or just for a mule, jfch# son .ajackass,
to rob a man, the lorcr creation,
of hie^ substance. - And, come to
think about it, you only help to cultivate
the ground. After that I cut,
shock, and husk it, while you look
over the pasture fence and ha! ha! at
me.
"All fall and part of the winter,
the whole family, from granny down
to the baby, picked cotton to help
raise money to buy you a new set of
harness and pay interest on the mortgage
on ydh. And, by the way, what
do you care ?b"it that mortgage ? It
doesn't worry you any. Not a darn
bit. You leave that "to me, you ungrateful,
ornery cuss. ;
"About the only time where I'm
your better is on election day. I can
vote apd you can't. But if I tret
get any more out of politics than you
do, 1 don't see wbers it U,"?TV

I Most Liberal Offer j
Hade by This Paper
The Chronicle announces with t^iia
(sue one of the moist liberal subr
zription offers in iU history.
In order to put the paper into
very home in the county, thereby
timulatlhg our already large aub<
cription list, and to give all, both
Id and new subscribers, the benefit
f the suving, the paper will be sent
o any address in the United States
or six months for fifty cents, (for- ;
ign postage extra).
This is not a contest. No prizes,
10 commissions and only the inducenent
of getting one of the best weeky
papers in the state for six months
or fifty cents. Neither is this a
cheme to raise money. We are noi
n the tights financially, and are pot
orced to do this. Owing to poor
nochanical equipment we have not
II red for u large subscription list,,
or our antequated equipment could (
lot handle a larger list. The ipT j
itallation of a new high-speed press I
renders our facilities greater. We
simply want to increase our list and
hope by this method to add several
hundred new names.
Tell you neighbors about it and get
them on the list (many of them have
been borrowing your paper). We do
not want a family in the county to,
be without The Chroniclef and it will
not be our fault if you do not get it.:
To every person handing in fives
names with fifty cents for each, The
Chronicle will be mailed six months
free.
A pqrson who has recently re-'
newed his or her subscription to The
Chronicle can get the same benefit
from this offer as a new subscriber,
by paying fifty cents and having six
months added to their subscription.
Remember, and come in at once?
and hand in just fifty cents and get
The Chronicle for six months.
Our subscription price has not been
reduced, it still stands at strictly $2
per year in advance, and after May
Bth, no living man will be able to.get
it for less.
I Under this offer we should and expect
to, in the time mentioned, put
several hundred new names on our
list.
For several weeks The Chronicle
will be sent as a sample copy to every
rural mail box in Kershnw county.
Look for the big page announcement
in today's paper.
This offer will positively close on
May 5th.
Merchants might well take advantage
of this unusual offer if they
have an advertising message to put
across, as during the next few weeks
The Chronicle will reach nearly every
rural mail box in the county.
