When genial Jim Hammond, an officer of the state highway patrol, reported on the death of a mule as the result of a collision between the animal and an automobile, our first reaction was to write a facetious ac count of the affair and give H a caption such as “Has His Last He- Haw” or “Paging Ous Ward, steaks on the Highway" but when we learn ed something about the mule and how she h^pened to be bit. w'e Just didn’t have the heart to write light-heart edly of the affair. For Queen was a mule-that was ^ years of age and had been *at the S. JC. Team farm in Lugoff for over twenty years. Queen was a sort of member of the family. Last Tuesday Queen was sold to a farmer who lives some five miles from the Team' farm. Now Quecdi’s new owner was a good man and Queen bad a nicf stable to stay in. But Queen became homesick after being at her new home for a day and Wednesday afternoon she started to go back home. She traveled along at a leisurely gait. II was about 8:30 p. m., and she was only a few yards from the lane leading from the highway to the Team place when her life was snuffed out. A Ford car, driven by Ira Lee Blackmon, insurance agent and oc cupied by Blackmon, his wife and baby came along the hj;ghway from Columbisi. The lights of west bound truck prevented Blackmon from see ing Queen. The rushing car struck Queen, hurling her up and on to the hood of the machine and killing her. The occupants of the car were badly shaken up, Mrs. Blackmon and baby having to be cared for at the hospital for a short time. Blackmon, badly shaken up. escaped injury. « Till In Cafe Is Looted; Burglars Quickly Captured Kelly into custody.

Police Also Recover Greatest Amount Of The Csmh Taken Police are holding Bennie Gray, Eugene Boykin and ’Thomas Kelly, all colored, for the alleged burglary of 1135 from a cash register in the Susie Fleming restaurant on Lower Broad street late Saturday night. AcccH-ding to the Fleming woman. , also colored, the three men were in her restaurant at 11 o’clock at night and a few minutes after they had left she noticed the cash register drawer open and $135 misipg. She report^ to the police and shortly after Patrolman McManus and dlose had taken Gray, Boykin and lover of good beef cattle, carried along a number of nurse cows to take care of the animals which are to be shown. Darnold and Donald, 4-H members and sons of Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong, are managing and feeding *the herd while they are away on the trip. The herd sire used on the farm is a great individual and was purchased for $15,000 last year. This animal should prove a great benefit in the present herd. As Ellis explains it “in order to produce good cattle we must begin with outstanding individual and then plan for year-round grazing, plenty of hay and silage."
