I s State News Boiled Down for Quick Reading ^ Pungent Paragraphs About Men r L ?. and Happenings. . s James Horsey, a sixteen-year-old boy, i was drowned in the reservoir of the cot- ^ ton mill at Winnsboro last Sunday night, i It is supposed he was bathing in the res- t t- ervoir. c A magistrate in Berkeley county has written to Governor Heyward asking that 1 a reward be offered for the capture of a 1 negro who killed his wife because she 1 i' went to church. 3 Mr. C. W. Gossett, a prosperous farmer '? of Pacolet, aged 67 years, committed suicide last week by cutting his throat with a ~ pocket knife. Ill health is supposed to have caused him to commit the act. State constables raided some illicit distilleries in the dark corner of Greenville county last Monday. They destroyed three large distilleries and 4,000 gallons of still beer. No arrests were made. Mrs. Agnes Schiever, an aged lady, was knocked down by a team on the streets of -? Greenville last Saturday. Her leg was broken and she sustained other injuries. Her recovery is doubtful, owing to her extreme age. The government expert employed by Governor Heyward has rendered his report as to the unsafe condition of the State house, in which he says that there is no danger of the building collapsing from the weight of the dome. I Col.M. P. Tribble, after announcing ; _ his candidacy for Secretary of State and filing his pledge almost at the last minute, has withdrawn from the race. He withdrew only two days after he filed his pledge, and did not attend any of the campaign meetings. The State Supreme Court has confirmed ^ the verdict of the circuit court in the case 1 of Hoyt Hayes, a young white man from Walhalla, who was found guilty of the murder of his wife and sentenced to be hung. This means that Hayes will be resentenced to be hanged at the next term 1 of court in Walhalla, unless the governor J commutes his sentence to life imprison- c ment, which he ought not to do. t The trial of Lee Green, a white man, t for the killing of a Jewish peddler named ? Surasky, took place in Aiken last week < and consumed several days. Green and \ his wife testified that Surasky attempted i to assault Mrs. Green, and that was the s reason Green shot him. The jury re turned a verdict of not guilty. Many ] people are of the opinion that it was a t cold-blooded murder for the purpose of robbery. 1 Dr. Arthur Thomas, a well-known dentist of Spartanburg, was assaulted and ' t 4 robbed last Monday night. He was re- 1 turning home in his buggy, and in the. . suburbs of town was struck with a bludg- < eon or piece of iron. His gold watch and 1 - *? tl. J ? 1 $20 were sioiea. me ucuvun i<.u-1 dered unconscious by the blow, and his i horse went on into the city. There is no i clue to the assailant. Dr. Thomas was not seriously hurt by the blow. 1 , Lewis Flowers was shot and mortally wounded by Sampson Brown in Marion * ^ county last Friday afternoon. The shoot- s ing occurred at the home of Brown, and Flowers died last Monday. The men had a difficulty the day of the shooting, but it was supposed to have been amicably j settled. Later in the afternoon Flowers k passed Brown's house, and the ante-mor-- * tern statement of the dead man was that * he was shot without warning, Both parties are white. * Last Monday morning about four o'clock the huge boiler of the saw mill of M. Murdaugh, near Branson, Hamp- * ton county, exploded, completely wrecking the building over it and destroying all surrounding machinery. The shattered boiler, notwithstanding its great weight, j was hurled fully 125 yards from its former j place. The cause of the explosion cannot T / be explained. The night watchman, a r white man by the name of Baker, who was standing near, lmiracuously escaped t with only a severe scalding. Fortunately j the workmen in the mill had not assem- j ? bled. i q ** THROWN FROM A WAGON. 8 Mr. George K. Babcock was thrown from his wagon and severely bruised. He r applied Chamberlain's Pain Balm freely and says it is the best liniment he ever used. Mr. Babcock is a well known citizen of North Plain, Conn. Nothing equal 8 to Pain Balm for sprains and bruises. It > effects a cure in one-third the time required by other treatments. For sale byH. C. t!

Therefore, all members of the committee will please remember that the meeting is changed to Tuesday. A BRIEF REPORT Of the Woman's Home Mission Society of the , Methodist Church in Bamberg. The idea in giving a few facts concerning the Bamberg Auxiliary of the Wo- ' man's Home Mission Society is to interest ? those who are not members of the Aux- < iliary. i In April, 1901, this Auxiliary was organized with* seven members. Each ' year there has been a steady increase of members, until at present there are 55 names enrolled, the most of which are interested, active workers. The dues, which are ten cents per month, are sent to the Southerh Board, which carries on the general work; and of the twenty-five cents per member paid yearly as a contingent fund, fifteen cents remains at home for local work. The Bamberg Auxiliary stands first in the Orangeburg District, and this district stands first in the State. The total amount raised by the Auxiliary during the past fiscal year is $381.70. There is a diversity in the local work of this Society. Each month new committees are appointed to visit the sick, and the strangers, and the needy?to administer to these and report same at every meeting. Often there are boxes of clothing sent off?sometimes to preachers' families on the frontier settlements, others to the "Door of Hope" in Columbia, and the Epworth Orphanage, etc. The Auxiliary takes an active part in all the work of the Mission Chapel in town, and yearly gives something of Amiiffamnnf f A fViu\fieaiAn OAUAAI Chill bU bU^ illlOOlVU LJ UUUAJ *9tUUUl, in order to keep the pupils interested. It will also have a small part in the new Methodist church?helping toward the furnishings. From time to time brief reports will be published, in order to keep the work of the Auxiliary before the members of the church. N. M. B. Bamberg, S. C., June 28,1904. Negro Women Fight. Last Friday night two negro women, Mit Hartzog and Lillie Mattry, went to the house of a negro woman who lives just opposite the new cemetery, for the purpose it seems of getting even. The Eartzog woman had some trouble with her a night or two before, and this other woman got the best of the difficulty. So, reinforced by her friend, she went up to do this other darky up and very nearly succeeded. Calling her out of the house, the Hartzog negro attacked her with a fence picket which she had pulled off the fence in front of the Selke lot, a formidable piece of wood about 1? inch square. She struck several blows, the nail in the picket cutting the arm of the woman who threw it up to protect herself. The Mattry woman in the meantime walked up with a pistol and shot once, the ball taking effect in the front part of the throat and going through, as the physician who attended the wounded woman cut it out at the back. The woman was hurt right badly from the blows delivered by the picket and the pistol bullet wound', but is getting along very well and will no doubt recover. Both the other women were arrested the same night and are in jail, where they will likely remain until court. It Was a Great Game of Baseball. A game of baseball was played at the -l- u rru ~ r* pars, ticre tast ruursuay aiieruuuu ucrtween the "fats" and the "leans," and it was decidedly'laughable. After about six innings had been played the score stood 30 to 12 in favor of the "fats," the game being called on account of darkness, weariness and soreness. Then, too, the factory whistle had blown, shutting down the mill for the day, and the "boys" wouldn't work after "knocking off" time. No account of the errors was kept, but some brilliant plays were made?by accident. Some of our citizens could hardly walk a day or so afterwards, on account of the soreness of their limbs. However it was a great game, and the crowd present seemed to enjoy it thoroughly. They ought to arrange for another game, giving some time for practice beforehand. Following is the make-up of the teams: "Fats"?B. W. Miley, captain; E. L. Price, C. W. Rentz, Sr., F. W. Free, Jno. R. Bellinger, J. J, Jones, J. P. Matheoy and E. S. Baggott. D. G. Delk and Antley were put in as substitutes during the game. "Leans"?Jno. F. Folk, captain; Eugene Weissinger, J. C. Moye, A. W. : Knight, M. J. Black, Charles Felder, W. J R. Wright and Walter Baxter. T. S. Rice was put in as a substitute for Black , during the game. C. W. Rentz, Jr., caught for the "Fats" and Junior Kinsey 1 for the "Leans." Married in Blackville. Blackville, June 28.?The marriage here of Mr. H. D. Still to Miss Marguerite Hair on last Wednesday night was one of ' the most important social events that has s occurred in Blackville. Mr. Still and his bride have both been very popular with 4 ail the young folks and their many friends wish for them much success and happi- ( ness in their future life. They received ] many handsome and expensive presents. ] Mr. W. D. Drew is at home from Co- < lumbia for a few days. ] Miss Mary Stokes, of Atlanta, is visit- i ing her sister, Mrs. A. H. Neeson.

A negro convict called "Bossie" James j|g escaped from the chain gang last Tuesday about 12 o'clock, but was recaptured early ~ |1| Wednesday morning by Mr. E. R. Steedly,. >||a| The gang was near Cow Branch at Mr, Joe I. Copeland'sand the negro dashed ; J| off through the bays, although heavily shackled. Early Wednesday morning ho went to Mr. Steedly's house for something M", to eat and had gotten off some distance- ;J| ' when Mr. Steedly's brother informed hint ^ ; that the negro was an escaped convict^ from the gang, he having heard of the escape. Mr. Steedly then mounted hif ^|S horse and ran the negro down, firing near him once and telling him to stop or he would kill him. The negro stopped told Mr. Steedly that if he had a double*: J barrel gun he would kill him. The negro was not shackled when captured, and it is supposed that they.^ hald become weak from wear and he brofc?|j|'$ them off soon after getting away.
