We wish some of our Northern friends who entertain the idea that a negro cannot get justice from the white pedple of the South could have witnessed a scene in our court house last week. A negro (Victor Corry) - was being tried for house breaking , and larceny. He was too poor to employ a lawyer, so he conducted his , own case. The jury was composed of white men and every witness against the negro was a white man. The negro had not a single witness. He cross-examined the witnesses, went on the stand in his own behalf and told his story and was acquitted, .v;-' < Now what have you to say about that, so far as giving the negro jus tice is concerned??Gaffney Ledger.

Last Tuesday night at 8:20 o'clock, j; -: just as all nature was wrapped in the mantle of night, the spirit of another landmark passed away. , ' Dr. Washington Aaron Hanberry was born November 13th, 1838, and had the care of his parents from early; years till their death. He served in the war of the sixties, belonging to : V Co. I, 5th regiment, S. C. cavalry, and his comrades have often spoken of his bravery and fortitude. His first wife was Mrs. Gaddy, of Jteyetteville N. C., but she lived only a few months. ~ . ; After the death of his parents he went to Baltimore where he went in tjhe tailoring business, which he was very successful in. In August of 1874 he was married to Miss Eleanor fe Hurst, of Charleston. Eight child ren, two daughters and six sons, blessed this union. After his second marriage he bev gan to pay much attention to his * practice of dentistry along with his I farming interest. He traveled in ; ' . Ins buggy to many homes to attend 5- his dental duties, and many will re} . member him as a splendid dentist, 1 hut he had given up his practice for several years, as his declining health forbade and turned his every thought to his farm near Denmark, where he lived till the time of his HV?<W. His body was embalmed and lay in V state till his two sons arrive from Houston. His remains were laid to rest in the Denmark cemetery, beside his two little sons on Friday afternoon. His funeral services were ' v conducted in Pythian honors he being among the oldest Knights of his lodge. His pall bearers were: Messrs. Isaac Jennings, J. D. Milhous, Wade Faust, Shannon Ray, Wm. Kittrell and J. Z. Brooker. Dr. Hanberry was a very energetic man and even when his health began to fail he clung to his duties till nearly the very last. He has been a sufferer of Bright's disease for several years, which was the cause of his death. He leaves a widow, two daughters, and four sons, all of which are grown, and three are married, to mourn his loss, also three sisters and a lot of relatives and friends. May God comfort them in their sore affliction. G. Mr Herbert Resigns. Columbia, March 11.?Mr. J. H.

Clothing and shoes wanted. Landlord will put themx on the street. I will give my skin and blood before they go homeless. Janitress, 112 East Eighty-eighth street." His wife having put the foregoing advertisement in the New York Herald, Alois Hoffman, a baker, who lives in the cellar of the flat house at the address given, declares as his last resort that he will sell his skin for grafting purposes and his life fluid for purposes of experiment for money to keep his wife and two children from starving. Mrs. Hoffman has until recently man aged to get ner rent, gas ana com rree of charge by acting as janitress of the building, while her husband, traveling from one end of the city to the other, has endeavored to earn enough pennies to buy his family their meager j daily fare. Several days ago, however, the .own- ! er of the building informed the Iloffmans that they would have* to vacate their cellar room because, he alleged, j their services as caretakers had been unsatisfactory to the tenants. | The family is without a cent. One of the children is twelve years oid and the other a baby only fourteen radnths old. 29* FROZEN IN HIS OWN BLOOD. Rich Hermit Found Murdered In Hut at Mudlake, Mich. Daniel Heastou, a hermit, was found frozen in his own blood in a small hut near the house where Heaston had been living alone, near Mudlake, Mich. The shocking mutilation of the body and other evidences about the place led to the conclusion tfyat the old man had been brutally tortured to make him reveal the hiding place of his money. Amputated fingers and foes lay scattered about, and the appearance of a heavy rope and of a beam over which it hung, coupled with marks on the victim's neck, indicated that he had been strung up to the rafter for a time. Apparently a blow in the head with a V~Anally an/lnrl Vila CTlffor. i UailTUCl UUU uuaaj uiuvu ings. It is thought that the murderers secured the booty they sought, as no money was found in the place. Heaston inherited a considerable fortune several years ago and had recently been displaying and spending his money quite freely. HATPIN IN HER STOMACH. | X Rays Show Where It Is, but Doctors Can't Get It Out. Suffering no pain and daily at play' with her schoolmates, little Lucele Laroie, the seven-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Elizear Lavole of 135 Ofcford street, Lewiston, Me., who has a large hatpin lodged in her stomach, is attracting the attention of leading THX BLACK HEADED HATPIN COULD BB SEEN. physicians there. It was while amusing herself with an ordinary tin tube pea shooter, or "blower/.' that little Miss Lavoie Invented the scheme of using a round headed hatpin instead of peas, as the hatpin when blown from the tube served as a dart and would stick in the target. The sport became exciting, and each time the little girl blew harder. Finally she put the shooter to her month, ?11? ^aat\ V?wnn fK onrV arew an unusuaii^ uccp uicum sucked the pin, head first, into her throat. She coughed violently, but the next moment she had swallowed it. Physicians were powerless to remove the pin without performing a most serious operation. She was in no pain, but coughed almost continuously. She was submitted to the X ray, and the black headed hatpin could be seen in her stomach. Died From Standing on Head. Standing on his head to amuse his father and brother caused the death of Walter Higgins, eight years old, of Pittsburg. The little fellow, who was in high spirits on Sunday morning capered about the house and stood on his head several times. Late in the afternoon he complained that his head ached, and the pain continued all night On Monday a doctor was called in, but the pain grew worse instead of better, and at 4 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day he became unconscious, dying three hours later. * ' i.'w . ;-..r A ! . . v .v t V '' - : - V ; ^ .v\ ' / * , - \ The Judge Uses Forceful Language. Judge W. B. Simmons, of Fincastle, Va., told the reporter that L. & M. paint was used on his residence in 1882, and held its color well for 21 years; he furthermore said that 3 years ago he was induced to use another paint and is sorry he did, because the other paint didn't make good. The judge will now always use L. & M., because he knows if any defect exists in L. & M. paint the house will be repainted for nothing. The L. & M. zinc hardens the L. & M. white lead and makes L. & M. paint wear like iron for 10 to 15 years. Actual cost of L. & M. about $1.20 per gallon. Donations of L. & M. made to churches.
