INTERESTING OCCURRENCES OF VARIOUS I
KINDS IN SOUTH CAROLINA. 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has withdrawn from the race.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

AN ALARM CLOCK FOR 25C. I
If you want to get up early and feel 0

Florence had been very good and asked
10 questions, but when she returned 88

Jer mother explained as clearly as she

"Yes, dear."
"And is she going to wear black night;owns?"

Committee Meeting Changed.
The date of the meeting of the county
Democrat ic executive committee has been
changed from next Monday, July 4th, to
Tuesday, :he 5th. This change was made
as several members of the committee had
to come here on Tuesday anyway on business,
and it would be a hardship on them
to make the long trip to town two days
in succession. 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.
Miss Rives, of Tampa, Fla., is visiting
her aunt, Mrs. I. F. Still..
Conyict Recaptured.
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. Tlui^H
