BXUBC U?W svub 0 r After consultation with Chief Constable Hammett and the attorney gen- . eral's office, State Secretary Gantt has refused to issue a charter to the "Mountain City club" of Greenville, because it * is suspected the charter is wanted as a ) ') cloak to the blind tiger business. * JoeH. Spinks, flagman on a freight train of the Southern Railway, had his | ; leg broken at Union last Monday. He was on a car loaded with lumber, and in shifting, two cars came together and his > leg was caught by the lumber and crushTb? limb was amputated below the knee. The dispensary investigating committee held some sessions inv Columbia last week. It was brought out that the State is out about $25,000 on a lot of labels, and that certain brands of whiskey were sold at retail in Augusta cheaper than * the Wholesale prices to the State d ispensary. ' : \ Senator Tillman gave out an interview in Washington last Monday, in which he roundly scored the legislature for passing , the Morgan bill. He says he will certainh . ly canvass the State next summer, whether the Morgan bill finally becomes law or < r , not. The Senator declares that the constitution does not permit local option. About four o'clock last Monday morning a party of young negroes went to the house of Edward Pinckney, a negro preacher and teacher in the Mars Bluff section of Florence county, and shot him to death. They also went to the house of Sam Johnson, another negro, and , called him to the door and shot him down. He may recover. Another unknown negro came up and he too was , shot. Johnson's wife was also beaten brutally with sticks. When the sheriff ' went to make arrests, he and his deputy were fired on by Jesse Pinckney, the ^ ringleader of the affair, who had shut . himself up in his house and refused to surrender. Several shots were exchanged and a negro who bad piloted the sheriff to Pinckney's house, was severely wounded by Pinckney. Finally the negro came out in the yard and the sheriff killed him. i The quarrel grew out of some property. 8everal negroes are in jail at Florence, i , 4 charged with complicity in the killing of Edward Pinckney. \ ? The Descendant of Two Presidents.

Sequel to the Murder of Hayne S. Cwddock in Barnwell County. Barnwell, Feb. 2.?As a sequel to the triple tragedy enacted near Ulmer in this county, just before Christmas, seven of the most prominent men of that section of the county are now lodged in the county jail. Immediately following the killing of Hayne S. Craddock and the socalled lynching of the two negroes, John and Frank DeLoach, Sheriff Creech and Detective H. H. Lintel went to work on the case and have left no stone unturned - * ' !L1 - whereby they might determine u posaiuie the members of the "lynching bee." After securing sufficient evidence warrants were sworn out for seven of the most representative men in that part of the county, two of them being officers of the law. The warrants were served and the arrests made yesterday and today, and tonight the following men lie in the county jail to answer to the charges of one of the most brutal crimes in the annals of the county's history: W. J. Myrick, farmer at Ulmer; W. J. Harter, constable to Magistrate Ulmer, at Ulmer (It will be remembered that Constable Harter was left by Magistrate Ulmer to protect the prisoners and that he was in charge of them when the mob took them to the swamps); Joseph Halford, postmaster and merchant at Ulmer; Milledge Lee, constable to Magistrate Riley, at Kline; Wade Sanders, farner at Ulmer; C. W. Hogg, farmer at Ulmer; Tom Huggins, farmer at Ulmer. Col. Robert Aldrich and C. A. Best have been employed as counsel for the defense.

Solicitor , James ?. Davis is in Columbia but is expected to return tomorrow. G. Raymond Berry Gives Bond. Marion, Feb. 3.?Ex-Superintendent of Education G. Raymond Berry is at liberty again. It will be remembered 1 that while in charge of the office of sup- 1 erintendent of education of this county a ; few years ago he was indicted for em- J bezzling the county's school book money, 1 and for forging 40 school trustee's pay 1 certificates, but left for parts unknown before he could be arrested; and that a few months ago he was arrested in Tampa, Fla., where he had been joined by his wife and children and was living under an assumed name, and was brought to Marion and lodged in jail to await his < trial at the spring term of criminal court. Soon after he was incarcerated he and his relatives began active efforts to se- j cure bail. At first the amount was fixed at $5,000, which was afterwards reduced to $2,400, approximately the amount of the embezzlement and forgeries. This was furnished by his relatives, and paid in cash, and Berry immediately left for Tampa to join his family. To your cor- ' respondent Berry stated that he intended to return and face thex charges, but the ^ general impression is that it is more likely 1 that be will go the other way, as conviction, should he be tried, would be almost i certain. A Cure for Stinginess. ( * ? -1 -V 1 JX small UiiUlUU was o?uly m naui u; general repairs and a meeting was being ; held to raise funds for that purpose. The minister, having said to do the work < $500 would be required, a very wealthy } (and equally stingy) member of the congregation rose and said he would give one dollar. Just as he sat down a lump of ' plaster fell from the ceiling and hit him | upon the head, whereupon he rose hastily and called out that he had made a mistake?he would give fifty dollars. That ' was too much for an enthusiastic present, l who, forgetful of everything, called out ; fervently, uO, Lord, hit him again!" 'Tm afraid" said the junior member of 1 the law firm, "that we are causing our 1 client unnecessay trouble." 1 "Oh, that's all right," rejoiued the ( senior member. "We'll charge him for it.' Spoiling a Lawyer. The late James G. Carter, of the New Tork bar, had often contended that there were too many law books. It is said that : on one occasion he asked a student, who i bad just offered himself for the admission 1 examination, what the youthful aspirant had read in preparation for the ordeal. 1 The ambitious one named about all the ( elementary treatise from Blackstone's "Commentaries" to date. In addition he >( said he had studied the codes, read Wool- < sey's "Political Science," Liber's "Code ] of Political Ethics," and he added, "all the leading cases cited." "Heavens and earth," exclaimed Carter ] in dismay, "my boy, you've read enough J to ruin your chances as a lawyer for life!" ] A HEALING GOSPEL. Rev. J. C.

SOME INTERESTING HAPPENINGS IN VARIOUS SECTIONS. News Items Gathered All Aronnd the County and Elsewhere. Ehrhardt Etchings. Ehrhardt, February 5.?The ground hog saw his shadow on February 2nd. The sayings of old men say this denotes six weeks of cold weather. So far we have had no winter weather worth talking abont. Warm enough in January to plant com. Col. C. Ehrhardt and Mr. J. D. Padgett went to Bamberg Sunday afternoon. They will spend Monday in that city and witness sales, etc. Mr. I. D. Copeland and wife were in town Sunday. Miss Lula Belvin came home last week from her visit, looking as fresh and charm* ing as ever. Our town was very quiet last week. Seemed as if every one coming to town was bent on business and hustled for home as soon as it was attended to. Some, of course, had to "smile" with each other before parting. The brick work on the bank building is nearing completion. Will not take long .to put the balance in shape for work.

AJshort crop or low price for cotton this fall will play old "Harry" with our time merchants. Our railroad has been having it tongh last week. Two days the engine has been on the ground. One engine badly damaged on the side. Had to go in for repairs. Miss Julia Fellers, of Columbia, S. C., is spending some time with. Mrs. T. D. Jones. A young man who not many years ago joined the Enighs says that he went to bed one night last week and during the night he dreamed a dream. Says he was to be married but had to take three degrees. Says he took one degree, but did not explain. Says the dream impressed him so much until he went to his mother and told her all and asked her information on same. What did she tell you, Willie? From all appearances we will soon lose one of our widowers. Seems to be meaning business, and you know it does not take them long when they start out. Dr. J. H. Roberts came in last week and gave us a hand shake. Then he took his family to his new home at Heath, S. C. Say, aren't those white waists and dress goods beauties at C. Ebrhardt & Sons? Will Hn vr?nr pvea cood to look at them. Jee. Country Correspondence. Mrs. F. E. Dozier and Miss Eva Hanberry, of Denmark, visited Miss G. E. Jordan Tuesday. Mr. J. W. Hill attended the wedding of bis kinsman, Mr. Thomas Hill, at Walterboro, last Wednesday evening. Mr. S. W. Sandifer, of Ehrhardt. was at his father's Monday. Mr. R. M. Hughes, of Loughman, Fla., came last Thursday, evening to bring the corpse of his infant baby. Their many friends here sympathize with Mr. and Mrs. Hughes in the death of their little cne. Miss Savillo Hughes, of Clear Pond, accompanied her brother back home. Regular preaching day at Colston on the first Sunday afternoon instead of the lecond, as heretofore. Miss Annie Whiten, of Pendleton, accepted the Hampton School Monday to finish the unexpired term of Miss Minnie Miller. Miss Miller has returned to her home in Lancaster, to teach music in the graded schools there, much to the delight of her home-folks there. We wish much success to both young ladies, in their new duties. Allendale Affairs. Allendale, February 3.?Twenty young men of Allendale have formed the Tulifinni Club. The object of the club is: Promotion of social intercourse among Its members and advancement of material things that benefit the community. At a meeting on Monday night last a constitution was adopted ane officers elected. This movement has the good will of the community and. with the efforts of 20 energetic young business men there is no doubt of its success. The brick for the new bank, to be known as the Allendale Bank, have ar rived and are now Demg put on me ground for the building, which will be next door to the postoffice. Mr. E. H. Oswald is to be president of the bank, Mr. Duncan Sams vice president and Mr. C. B. Farmer cashier. These are all experienced financiers and Allendale is a fine location for a bank, so there can be ao doubt of the success of the enterprise. FRIGHTFULLY BURNED.' Chas. W. Moore, a machinist, of Ford City, Pa., had his hand frightfully burned in an electrical furnace. He applied Bucklen's Arnica Salve with the usual result: "a quick and perfect cure." Greatest healer on earth for burns, wounds, 3ores, eczema and piles. 25c at Hoover's drug store, J. B. Black. In Memory of Herbert Fender. Just at the close of the day, Monday, February 5th, the dark winged angel of death entered the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Fender and claimed as its victim, 1 Herbert, their fifteen year old son. i His illness, although painful, was only of four days duration. His remains will be i laid to rest by loving hands at Mt. Pleasant cemetery this afternoon. ] Herbert was a quiet, studious boy at i school, gentle with his play mates and courteous to his teacher. It is sad to think he will not answer to the roll call at school again, but we take comfort in the thought that he answers to the roll call in Heaven. He is lovingly remembered by both teacher and classmates. If sympathy can allay one throb, we offer it in full measurement to his bereaved parents. His Teacher. Colston, S. C., February 6,1906. A Speedy Recovery. On one of the visits of the American fleet to English waters, Admiral Erben, now retired, was in command, with Captain Alfred T. Mahan, the writer on naval affairs, as his flag captain. One morning Captain Mahan came to his admiral with an invitation to dine with a duke, which he had received. "I can't accept this," said Captain Mahan, "as they forget to invite you." "I should say you couldn't," growled the admiral. "I'll answer for you." Whereupon the admiral wrote: "Admiral Erben, United States] navy, regreta that Captain Mahan, his flag captain, cannot accept the invitation of the Duke of Blank. Captain Mahan is on the SICK 11SI. An hoar or so later a messenger from the duke returned with invitations for the admiral and the captain. Whereupon the admiral wrote again: "Admiral Erben accepts with pleasure the invitation for Captain Mahan and himself. He wishes also to advise the ' Duke of Blank that he ha3 taken Captain ' Mahan off the sick list. Forty-One Years Ago. Forty one years ago this week- Gen. 1 Joseph Wheeler was in Barnwell District, commanding his cavalry retreating before Sherman's cruel advance. The late Capt. G. Owen Riley, then quite a young lad,' because of his familarity with the country ' South of Barnwell was detailed as guide and aide for Gen. Wheeler. And he was never busier, for from dawn to dark the Confederate leader rode rapidly along the front seeming to have an intuitive knowledge of direction and distance and manifesting no sign of fatigue. After Wheeler had gone towards Aiken, where he defeated Kilpatrick, one of his men who had tarried too long in Barnwell to safely follow his leader, Sherman's troops being between them, slipped under the Turkey Creek bridge early in the morning where he lay all day, the enemy passing over him on the bridge. After night he came out and struck out to rejoin his command.?Barnwdll People. Sensible Talk. One of the best speeches made in the Legislature this session was that delivered by Senator J. H. Hudson, of Bennettsville, formerly Judge of circuit court. 1 8peaking of the courts this eminent jurist declared that judges are entirely too leni- . ent with lawyers, too accommodating and often seeking the good will of the bar 1 rather than looking after the real business ' of the courts. The dilatory methods now a custom are a shame to the State and the profession. So long as judges indulge lawyers in longwinded speeches and dilatory tactics so long will business be delayed. He said lawyers needed discipline and the courts needed judges who would take hold of the reins. He has the greatest respect for the bench and the bar but there is a crying need for reform. Pointed Paragraphs. A self-satisfied man is always conceited. It's not good for lbyers to be too good to be true. Many a man who knows bis place has his eye on a better one. Strange to say, the speaking likeness of a woman goes without saying. Be sore you are right, but don't be too sure that everybody else is wrong. Many an otherwise truthful man will lie about the fun he had while camping out. Our idea of a fool man is one who waits for the bartender to tell him when he has 1 enough. Many a man looks upon a marriage li- > cense as a blotter with which he expects < to blot out his past. 9 It frequently happens that a woman who was proud of a man as a beau is ashamed of him as her husband. Her Ten Words. | Here are the final cablegrams in an in- i ternational romance: "Buenos Ayres, j Ada Crauford: Will you marry me now? , Answer at once. Eugene Tulian. New j York. Eugene T ulian: Yes. AdaCrau- ] f urd." Of course you remember the story { of the other girl who got a proposal by , telegraph. She asked the clerk how many j words she could send for a quarter. He i said 10, and her answer was: "Yes, yes, i yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!" < Legislature Should Economize. We have not seen the annual report of the comptroller general, but are informed by the Columbia Record that heucallsattention to the disposition of the general assembly to spend too much money." For years past every legislature has act ed as if bounden duty required the disbursement of every cent collected, so that none should rust or remain idle. This suggestion of economy by a State official is the first of the kind we remember seeing since Gen. Hacood's time. The present legislature is presumably no more extravagant than any or all its recent predecessors, but as its appropriations for the year are not yet made it has the opportunity to turn over a new leaf. Can any of our readers tell why our law makers think it right to spend all tax collections and act accordingly??Barnwell People. Dispensary Sales for January.

No report had been filed by the Midway dispensary on Tuesday, when we got these reports from the clerk of the county board of control. The Last Brigade Chaplain. Rev. Matthew O'Keefe, who enjoyed the distinction of being the last remaining brigade chaplain of the Confederate armv. died iL New York Saturdav from J J . w cold contracted while visiting the sick. Father O'Keefe was widely known for his deeds of charity and beneficence, and although at one time he was the possessor of a handsome fortune he was practically penniless when he died. Father O'Keefe won the red ribbon of the Legion of Honor in 1869 by attending the crew of the fever infested French frigate, which put in at Hampton Roads. The schoolmaster asked the pupils: "Suppose in a family there are five children and mother has only four potatoes between them. Now, she wants to give to every child an equal share. What is she going to do?" Silence reigned in the room. Everybody calculated very hard, till a little boy stood up and gave the unexpected answer, "Mash the potatoes, sir." For about three years there has been a perceptible decrease in the amount of rainfall, but the downpours that have visited this section during the last few weeks have aided very materially in relieving the water famine. A few days ago a rather bashful young woman went into a grocery store carrying chickens. She inquired the price of chickens and at the same time put them en the counter. The clerk didn't know the chicken's feet were tied and asked if they would lay there. She bit her handkerchief, ducked her head and said: "No sir, they are roosters." A young lady in a nearby city, was told if she walked down stairs backward, ate four sour apples and a quart of hickory nuts and then swallowed a glass of water without taking her breath, she would dream of her future husband. She tried the prescription on Thursday night, but was not gratified with her success. As far as producing dreams it was all right, but she would not marry the man she saw in her visions if he wore a coronet and had more money than a Vanderbilt. "Ignorance of the law, you know," said the justice of the peace, "is no defense." "In that case," replied the prisoner, "you wouldn't have a leg to stand on if they ever hauled you up, would you?" The captain of the ill fated excursion steamer General Slocum has been sentenced to prison for ten years for neglect of duty. The men who placed iron bars in the life preservers of the steamer are still drawing their dividends.?Washington Post. Midshipman Decatur has been dismissed from Annapolis for hazing, while officers of the institution, who stood by and practically said, "Go it, boys," don't even get reprimands.?Birmingham ] News. It is said the postmaster general will soon cnt off many of the routes now in operation unless the people patronizing them send out and receive more mail. It is a question for the people in the different sections to determine for themselves; if they want them they must write more letters and subscribe for all the papers and magazines they can; the postoffice iepartmentis in earnest about cutting them off and nothing can be done to stop it unless the people show the proper appreciation of what the government is joing for them. STOLE FOR TROUSSEAU. Pretty Woman Accused of Shoplifting in a NewYork Department Store. Tearfully confessing that she was steal- ; ing underwear and ornaments for her wedding tronssean, and that her friend was helping her, Lottie Yedder, 26 yearn old, and pretty, was arrested with Florence King, a dashing brunette, in a sixth* y avenue deDartment store in New York br the store detective. Tacked in their shirtwaists, under their J coata and in their muffs, they carried two 1 $ silk waists, two cat glass perfumery bottles, boxes of face powder, bottles of toff- , et water and more than a dozen pieces of . M lingerie. Lottie Vedder told the police she had - :?M never been a shoplifter, bat that she is en* gaged to marry a Virginia business man in a few months and is anxious to get to?gether a trousseau. In the Jefferson Market coart, Magistrate Mott held them in $500 bail each for examination. Black ban's Objection. Senator Blackburn's fondness for fM speech-making is matter of common . , knowledge. At one time he was on an outing trip with some friends along the Kentucky river, when a few dozen resl? ' H dents of the neighborhood joined the Senator and his companions. The food provided could not have been more satis- 3fl| fying to the appetite and there was plen- ' I ty of liqaid refreshment as welL Black- ; burn, however, did not seem to be enjoying himself. One of his friends noticing > his moodiness, asked him what waa the j ^ matter. "I don't like this crowd," Blackburn responded. "Why, Joe," his friend , ; -|j remonstrated, "there's not a man here who wouldh't die for you." "I know that," ; returned Blackburn. "It's not the quality I'm objecting to, but the quantity. The v! | crowd is too big for an anecdote and not / j big enough for a speech." ~ A Neat Retort Senator Foraker was contradicting a certain statement. "Though this 1s a firm contradiction,* * he said, "I want it to be a pleasant and > '& polite one. It is not necessary, when men tell falsehoods, to call them liars and club them over the head. Their error can be , pointed out in neater and more graceful ways. "For instance: ....;v' ^S "In a small town in Indiana a group of ; drummers were assembled.

Every dollar these gentlemen have . , "given away" has been brought regularly M to public attention through the columns of the daily press, but the more interest- * ^ ing explanation would be, "Where did they get it?" "Upon what meat does this our 6aesar feast that he has grown so great" as to he V j able to "give away" these large sums of N ' money??The Commoner. ^ The Grienauer Concert Company. - i.The coming of this attraction at the Fitting School chapel next Saturday - /. * evening, the 10th instant, will be an event for music lovers in Bamberg. The s ; ^ company consists of Mr. Grienauer, 'cello; Anton Schott, tenor, and Theodore Saul, . < pianist. All three are masters of their ^ J art, and the selections to be rendered will all be classical music of the highest order. '' This company recently appeared at the \ ^ ^ Columbia theatre, and the audience was simply delighted. We wish we had the space to reproduce the long criticism which appeared in the Columbia State. \ Our people can rest assured they will not have such an opportunity again soon. _ ^ f\* A distressed New York wife who sought to have her husband arrested for non-support, blurted out a piece of sound caution: "I knew my husband drank before I married him," said she, "and Fd like to tell any girl if she thinks she can reform a man by marrying him, she is very much mistaken." The girl who expects to reform a drunkard or make a decent, respectable man out of a hog, or turn a lazy, thriftless idler into an industrious worker, is lacking in good common sense. . .' * fA , -vS&iSt;
