The Honse that Jack Bnilt.
The story of a suit for damages recently
decided in a German village reads like
a revised version of "The House that jack
Built." In this case a cat was chased by
a dog and ran into a stable and jumped
on the back of a cow that was being milked
and the cow was frightened and kicked
the milkmaid off of her stool and the
milkmaid's feelings were hurt and she
sued Captain Schorn owner of the dog
and Herr Von Dora owner of the cat and
her employer the Dairyman Herr Kame
ler owner 01 tne cow ior damages ana
Ibe court awarded her $36 and each defendant
had to pay one third.
So there you have the whole matter in
a breath. As the local poet wrote:
This is the dog of Captain Schorn
That chased the cat of Herr Von Dorn
That scratched the cow with the crumpled
horn
That kicked the maiden all forlorn
Whose testimony duly sworn
Of feelings hurt and clothing torn
Impelled the judge all shaven and
shorn
To mulct and fine that very morn
The dairyman and Herr Von Dorn
As well as gallant Captain Schorn
Who owned the dog
That worried the cat
That scratched the cow
That kicked the maid
That milked in the bam at Redwitz.?

COUNTRY NEWS LETTERS.
SOME INTERESTING HAPPENINGS
IN VARIOUS SECTIONS.
News Itemg Gathered All Around
the County and Elsewhere.
Ehrhardt Etchings.
Ehrhardt, Aug. 27.?Mrs. Bertha
Jones, after several hindrances, succeeded
in going on her pleasure trip
on last Saturday morning. She will
take in Newberry visiting several
relatives in that town.
Messrs. J. D. Padgett, I. D. and
F. H. Copeland, and Master Beunie
Ehrhardt went to Charleston Sunday.
Some for business, while others
take in the sights.
Mr. Ben P. Carter went on a visit j
to his brother, Dr. E. P. Carter, at
McLaurin. While there took sick
and died on Saturday afternoon.
Was buried at Carter's Ford grave
yard on Sunday.
Cotton is coming in for v ginning,
but the new cotton is so green until
it makes a poor sample, as well as
tough to gin. Messrs. C. Ehrhardt
& Sons ginned twelve bales for the
public last week.
The farmers say their cotton is
sprouting in the burr on account of
the rains we are having. Short crop,
low price, and poor grade will be
tough on us this fall.
Hens and hen fruit will be scarce
this fall in this section. Nearly -all
the chickens are dead or dying from
a disease the old ladies call 'Timber
neck." We know of the sore neck
disease but limber neck is ahead of
us. What's a preventative of the
disease, Mr. Editor? (Don't know.
Ed.)
Some of our farmers are making
plenty peas and say the vines are
growing rapidly and putting on more
peas than they ever had ~J?ore.
A young lady in town wrote an
order to a certain young man in town
clerking in a general merchandise
store for a bottle of "Quick White."
She wanted to dress her white slippers.
The clerk read the order several
times but could not decide what
CJVIO moont Kv "Ane hntflp Qllick
OAAV AMVVUAV H/J v ivvvwav
White," so he finally concluded she
meant a Quick Relief and. sent her a
bottle of St. Joseph's Quick-Relief,
thinking that delay might cause continued
pain. You should have seen
the young clerk when the young
lady stepped in the store and explained
that it was not her sweet little
self that was out of order but her
! white slippers.
Mr. B. B. Hutson died Sunday afternoon
about seven o'clock. He has
been ill for some time, and nothing
could be done to relieve him. He
will be buried at Pleasant Hill grave
yard beside his wife, who was laid
at rest there in May, 1905. He leaves
seven children behind, orphans. They
are all small and kind friends and
relatives will take care of them until
old enough to work for themselves.
On Sunday afternoon we had the
heaviest rain of the season. Our
streets were* regular branches of running
water. Jee.
Denmark Doings.
Denmark, August 28.?Mr6. J. W.
Wyman, who has been spending some
time with relatives in Charleston, has returned
to her home in the city.
The Misses Davis, of Columbia, are
spending some time with Mrs. C. T. Bamberg
in the city. f
We are having lots of rain these days,
and the prospect for a half crop at this
time is looking rather gloomy, as it is re
ported on good authority that the grown
bolls are rotting in the fields.
Miss Mary Bell Inabinett, who has
been on an extended trip thro'ugh the
North, returned home on Saturday last.
Miss Inez Zorn, formerly stenographer
and typewriter in the law office of James
A. Willis, Esq., of Barnwell, has accepted
a position with Messrs. Lee & Wells, of
Augusta, Ga.
The new store being fitted up for Mr.
J. B. Gillam, Jr., will soon be completed
and he will be ready to move in some
time next week. Mr. Gillam does one of
the largest mercantile businesses in the
county and the store he now occupies is
nothing like large enough for his mammoth
stock of goods. The building into
which he is to move is about 70x100,
which gives him better room to display
his stock.
The protracted meeting that is going
on at the Methodist church commenced
Sunday morning last by the pastor, who
was unable to get assistance ^on account
of illness.
Mr. D. Kreisberg, of Charleston, has
opened up a dry goods and clothing business
in the Goolsby store on 6th street.
Mr. H. G. Driggs has commenced the
erection of a fiv: room cottage on the
corner of 5th street and Hemlock Ayenue,
and is putting the material on his lots on
7th street for four other cottages which
he hopes to have ready for occupancy in
the very near future.
Miss Lena Mitchell, of Elko, and Mrs.
M. R. Hardwick returned last week from
Sullivan's Island, where they have been
spending some time. Miss Mitchell stopped
over on her way back, and is the
guest of Mrs. Hardwick in the city.
Among tke visiting candidates in the
city last week were Messrs. B. W. Miley,
H. M. Graham, E. T. LaFitte, R. W. D.
Rowell, and H. A. Ray.
The protracted meeting conducted by
Rev. John A. Brunson, of Elloree, . for
about ten days at the Baptist church,
closed on Wednesday night of last week
Miss Alice Scott, of Williston, en route
to North Carolina, stopped over and was
the guest of Mrs. M. R. Hardwick on
Thursday last.
Miss Laura Hartzog has accepted a
position with Mr. F. H. McCrae.
Mr. G. A. Steadman spent Thursday of
last week in Augusta.
The many friends of Miss Estelle Guess
are glad to see her out again after a protracted
illness.
Miss Julia Zorn is spending some time
with friends and relatives in Waynesboro,
Ga.
Messrs. Galium & Berman, of Baltimore,
Md., with their families have arrived with
a full line of up-to-date fall and winter
goods and will open up on or about September
5th, in the store now occupied by
J. B. Gillam, Jr., on corner of Palmetto
Avenue and Sixth Street. These gentlemen
will carry a full line of gents' furnishing
and ladies' dress goods.
The ladies in our Southland are to be
pitied from the great dread that they are
under from being attacked by the demons
of hades, and last week looked as if
the whole of them were turned loose,
from the number of unspeakable crimes
that were committed. It has gotten so of
late that it is dangerous for a lady to
leave her home, even in a city, unpro
tected. H.
Colston Cullings.
Colston, August 28.?We are having
plenty of rain now, and the cotton that
has opened is looking very dingy.
Mr. W. W. Kearse, of Adams Run is
spending a few days with his parents, Mr.
and Mrs. G. W. Kearse.
Mr. W. H. Vara left last Friday for
Leesville, where he was called to the bedside
of his wife, who is spending a few
weeks there with her parents.
Mrs. J. F. Clayton is visiting relatives
near Denmark this week.
Mr. B. W. Beard and Mrs. J. B. All are
very ill at this writing, but we wish them
a speedy recovery.
To-day is election day, and if the candidates
had the least idea that they could
rule the people to-day they would certainly
try and do so.
Messrs. J. B. Vara and H. J. McMillan
spent Saturday and Sunday with relatives
near Orangeburg.
Mr. T. D. beard went down 10 j-?ouge on
Saturday last.
ANOTHER DISPENSARY SENSATION.
Mr. Wylie, a. Member of the State Board,
Says it is Corrupt, then Denies it
Mr. Wylie, of the State board of dispensary
directors, was on the C. & N. W.
train yesterday morning, going toward
Gastonia and between Yorkville and Clover
he said in the presence of Dr. J. E.
Massey and Mr. F. P. McCain, who were
going to Clover with the county campaign
party, that the State dispensary has always
been corrupt and it is as corrupt
now as it has ever been. He said that the
State board is corrupt; but he is only one
man against two and cannot help himself.
He cited that recently, over his protest,
the other two members of the board had
purchased two thousand cases of so-called
case whiskey. Upon the arrival of
the whiskey, he, Wylie, insisted on having
it analyzed. The analysis showed 24
per cent of alcohol and the balance was
various kinds of chemicals. As the result
of the analysis, and Mr. Wylie's
threatening to make a fuss; the liquor
was sent back. Dr. Massey and Mr. McCain
both repeated Mr. Wylie's statement
to them in their speeches at Clover.
?Yorkville Enquirer.
Did Major Wylie, of the board of directors
of the State dispensary, say that
the other members of the board are corrupt
; that he is only one man against
flonnnt heln himcolf hnt.
vtt v, ouu vmuuvw ?v*j/ " * "
able recently to compel the others, by
threats, to return goods purchased over
his protest?
In a long distance telephone conversa- j
tion this morning with a Record man,
whom he called up, Major Wylie denied
the allegation that he had made such
statements, and authorized the newspa-i
per man to quote him as strongly, in denial
as his command of the language
would permit.?Columbia Record.
Mr. McCain puts the matter like this:
"In my speech at the campaign meeting
at Clover on Monday, to show the
corruption in the State dispensary management,
I stated that Mr. Wylie of the
present board of directors had stated to
Drs. Massey and Saye and myself on the
train that morning that the board of directors
of the State had purchased 2,000
cases of whiskey over his protest. That
it was found on arrival to contain only
about 2 per cent, of alcohol and was returned
to the house from which it was
purchased. * I made the deduction from
this that therp was still oorrnntion in t.hp
dispensary management. Mr. Wylie did
not say to me in so many words that the
board was oorrupt."
. Tillman says that he did not accept a
piano from a" whiskey concern, but he
says that he gave thousands of the State's
money to one Hubbell who is dead. It
would have been better if he had taken
two or three pianos and let the rebates
go into the State treasury.?Carolina

Tlios. E. Miller, President.
The trustees of the State's colored col
lege at Orangeburg met yesterday an<
passed a resolution requesting Thos. ?
Miller, LL. D., to withdraw his resigna

board and explained his reasons for re
signing. He complied with the reques
of the board, which was embodied in th
following resolution:
"Resolved, That this board after a ful

remain at the head of the institution."
The board recognizes that Presiden

declined to remove the two teachers.?

LYNCHING IN DORCHESTER.
Negro Taken From Sheriff and Riddled With
Bullets?Was Peering Into a House.
A negro named Willie Spain was taken
I from the Dorchester county jail at St#
George last Thursday afternoon by a
party of men, carried up the road on a /
hand car, strung up in the woods near
Badham and shot to pieces. * : M
The negro had attempted to enter the
house of Mr. S. L. Connor, whil^ the
eleven year old daughter of Mr. Connor .
was alone in the building. He was
frightened away by the child's screams.
Another negro saw him running and informed
Mr. Connor, who was in a field
nearby. Mr. Connor came upon the
negro hiding in the cane and attempted
' to capture him. Spain showed fight and
" Mr. Connor, in striking him, broke sev1
eral bones in his hand. The negro es- - A
' caped but was later captured and deliver- J|
ed to Sheriff Limehouse, who lodged him |||
. in jail. , .
. Shortly after he had been locked up _
a party of men came up on a hand car, . ^

lade of shots heard in the vicinity of
" Badham told the fate of the negro, and
his body was found torn to pieces by bul- J|j
lets, hanging from a small oak tree.
" The sheriff telephoned to the governor
that his prisoner had been taken away. 1
. The governor instructed the sheriff to
i make an effort to recover the prisoner.

It does not appear that the negro entered
the Connor house, nor is It clear v ;gjB|
what his intentions were. He was peering
