Otis Brabham, had a miraculous escape
last Monday morning. A mule hitched
to a wagon was in front of Mr. Brabham's
residence and the little fellow had climbed
up in the back of the wagon. The mule
got loose by some means and tore off at a
rapid rate down the sidewalk towards
the oil mill, keeping the sidewalk all the
way. In some places it was very narrow
and the wagon grazed several trees and
telephone poles, but when the mule was
stopped by a negro at the oil mill,
the little boy was not hurt nor the wagon
, broken.

We learn, incidentally, that when i)r.
E. H. Williams' remaius were being consigned
to the earth the attorneys?one
and all?wishing to pay their last sad
tribute to their fellow citizen, entreated
the presiding judge, Gary, to adjourn the
court if for only one hour, which he persistently
refused tc do; but only a few days
before had done the same to convenience
himself. "A little brief authority is a dangerous
thing" in some cases. The absence
of ordinary courtesy ou a solemn occasion
of this kind will not elevate the stoic judge
is the minds of Dr. Williams' friends
nor will they soon forget the incident.

Sou Shoots Father. ?
A shooting affray occurred in the s*(
barren's Cross Roads section of this j F
:ounty last Sunday afteruooD, in which v<
L W. Kinsey, a white man. was shot by ai
lis son, Hugh Kinsey. The shooting was h;
lone with afiistol, the bullet taking effect c<
n the left thigh. re
It appears that there had been bad w
ilood between father and son for some
inie past, and the young man had left c<
lorne and was living in Orangeburg, h;
vhere he had been married. Family tl
litferences is at the bottom of the trouble, at
t appearing that the father had treated re
ioth his children and wife very badly ui
md been guilty of immorality. All of ei
lis children but one son had left home w
>n this account, and young Hugh Kinsey
lad always taken his" mother's part and tl
hus gained the enmity of his father. kj
Last week[he came back home for a few of
lays and on starting to leave for Branch- st
ille Sunday afternoon to take the train In
or Oraugeburg, he wish to take with him Ci
ome article which he claimed either beonged
to himself or his mother. His
ather objected and started towards the
oung man, who retreated towards the .
fate, his father following. He theu drew .(^
lis pistol and warned his father to go J**
>ack, which he did. Again the boy started '
o get the article he wanted and he and
lis father had high words and finally the 01
ild man caught the boy's hand which held si
he pistol. Then the shot was fired, the ?
mllet lodging in the left thigh as above
tated. This ended the trouble, and ?
Krckth*?r tnnk ftwav the nistol and ?
mloaded it.
Hugh Kinsey then left for Brauchville,
ccompauied by a brother, but before
aking the train for home, both were !:r
.rrested by the town marshal of Branchrille
aud put in "the guard house, the j.
lews of the shooting having reached
here. They stayed in the guard house m
tntil about 12 o'clock Monday when .
lugh Kinsey was arrested on a warrant J1
worn out before Magistrate J. H. Feuder, *r
,nd brought to Bamberg and placed in jV
ail, where he now is. His brother was
eleased.
The young man appears to regret the
hooting very much, and ^especially the
condition of affairs which led up to the g
lifticulty between he and his father. He ^
las not yet applied for bond, and will not aj
lo so until the extent of his father's inuries
is settled. The wound is said not a(
o be a serious one, and it is supposed
hat the father will be well soon. It is
o be hoped that the case will be settled, 1
ind the matter not get into the courts, ^
ind probably this will be done unless the
at tier's injuries prove to be serious. j
The young mau who did the shooting
s 22 years old, but has a youthful appeartuce,
not looking to lie over twenty. It ^
s truly an unfortunate affair. g

Mass Meeting Called. o
Acting upon the advice of several citi- p
zens, wlio approve of the idea advanced
by this newspaper as to the advisability ^
of holding a mass meeting for the pur- *
pose of nominating a town ticket, a meeting
of the voters of the town is hereby '
called to meet in the town hall next Mou- c
day afternoon, the 2?th instant, at five
o'clock, for the Durnose of nominating a r

Barn Burned.
The large barn at the Bamberg Nurse- j
ries, just a mile from tnwn, was burned <
last Friday night about half-past nine *
o'clock. It was the property of Messrs. j
H. J. & Otis Brabham, and their loss is |
something like $300. The barn was a j
large two-story structure, ami there was |
insurance of $300 on the building and
contents. In addition to the building
tbey lost a quantity of corn, fodder, hay,
phosphate, etc., as well as a lot of fanning
| implements. One two-horse wagon and
a one-horse wagou aud buggy were also
burned.
The lire originated in the upper sio*y
and must have been the work of rats, as
there had been no lire about the building.
A lot of fruit trees around the barn were
ruined from the heat of the burning
building.

REWARD FOR KINO'S CAPTURE.
Half of it Paid to Deputy Sheriff
Hunter Yesterday.
Deputy Sheriff Huuter of Bamberg was
lere yesterday to collect the reward
>ffered for the capture and convictiou of
>V. C. Kiug, the white man of Florence
:ounty who killed young Sam Rogers and
he latter's father,James Rogers.There was
ome contention as to who deserved the
eward, but Mr. Hunter was satisfied
vith half and the remainder was given
o the town marshal of Denmark, who
laimsthat he spotted the man who has
ince been convicted of murder.
Mr. Hunter gives a graphic description
f munnnr ill u? hir>li h? pffecled the I
I IUC M11 it U.VM
apture. He had been in Columbia a few
ays before attending a sheriffs' conis
r en ce, and Sheriff Burch, of Florence,
ad told him at that time that there was
reward for the capture of King. Acordiugly
when he heard that Policeman
V'alker, of Denmark, had spotted the man,
lunter was not averse to trying his hand
t making the capture. When he and
heriff Iiurch arrived at Denmark the
>wn marshal was not there, but the others
found where the suspected stranger
light be found at a tobacco patch on
enator May field's place within the cororate
limits. Hunter went to the to- 1
acco field, which was being planted under 1
;ie supervision of King, and slated that
e was interested in tobacco culture,
ling was thrown off his guard by the
joluess of the young deputy and was
irprised when Hunter grabbed his hands
ud snapped the handcuffs 011 him. Hunter
len read the warrant to King who made ,
o further remonstrance when he learned 1
lat Sheriff Burch was waitiug to identi7
him. The prisoner's pockets were (
. arched hut no revolver could be found. '
inally Deputy Hunter located the reolver
on an inside pocket of King's vest
ad under his right arm. Kingbeingleft
anded, had thought this a good place of ,
ancealment and also a good place to
jach it in an emergency, but he wa9 out- J
itted by the young deputy. ,
The town marshal spotted King on ac- '
aunt of the latter's not having changed
is name, and then every police officer in J
le country was supplied with an accur- '
e description of the hunted man. The
sward has been held up for some time
atil Deputy Hunter declared to the gov nor
yesterday that he would besatsfied ,
it h ifchft J
Mr. Hunter stated also that J. B. King,
le town marshal of Bamberg, who was j
illed by Davis, was formerly a resident {
Columbia and conducted a "racket (
ore" in the old Jerome building. Davis ^
is been convicted of manslaughter.?

General Bamberg's Illness.
Last Saturday afternoon Gen. F. M. ]
amberg suffered a stroke of paralysis, ]
ie whole left side of his body being ]
Tected, and has since been very ill at 1
is home. His condition is much better 1
; this writing, and his many, many 1
iends hope that he will recover and be I
>ared many years of a useful life. i
The attack came on when he was in his <
aggy down town, but he got home before ]
le full force of it came upon him. Phy- 1
ciaus were immediately summoned, and <
was at first thought to be an attack of i
mte indigestion. Later in the night, ]
owever, his condition grew worse, and J
?r. Taylor, of Columbia, was telegraphed
>r, arriving on the Sunday morning <
ain. The General's son-in-law, Dr. E. ]
. Waunamaker, of Columbia, was already
ere, he being in Bamberg for the pur- i
ose of treating Mr. Jones Williams. i
Sunday afternoon all tbe absent mem- i
ers of the family came home on a special i
ain., and all through the town there was i
feeling of gloom and sadness, as all I
?ared a recurrence of the attack. Howver,
it is now believed that all danger is
ast, and that this much-loved citizen <
rill soon be out again, an outcome which
i devontely wished by all our people. i
The love and esteem in wbiPft General
iamberg is held was never more fully i
lustrated than in the past few days,
'onstant inquiries from all classes of <
eople as to his condition were heard, 1
nd on every face there was a sad expres- ,
ion. In his sickness he has shown a
raye spirit, and at no time has he been
nconscious, but b.m? conversed cheerfully
nd pleasantly with those wl|P were periitted
to visit bis sick room.

One Minute Cough Cure gives relief in
one minute, because it kills the microbe
which tickles the mucous membrane, causing
the cough, and at the same time clears
the phlegm, draws out the inflammation
and heals and soothes the affected parts.
One Minute Cough Cure strengthens the
lungs, wards off pneumonia and is a harmless
and never failing cure in all curable
cases of Coughs, Colds and Croup.
Our little girl was unconscious from stranfuhHca
during a sudden and terrible attack of croup. 1 auickly
secured a bottle of One Minute Cough Cure and gars
her three doses half an hour apart. The croup was
mastered and our little darling 'speedily recovered. I
cannot praise One Minute Cough Cure too much for
what it has done in our family.?A. L. Spafford, Poetmaster,
