"Political appendicitis" is the latest
disease in political circles in this
Jv > State.
V The National Democratic Conven**on
Is in session in Denver this
" week. Of course Bryan will be nominated
for president, but there can
he no safe prediction as to the nomgi
inee for vice president.
Cole Blease says he has $8,000 to
| v bet that he will be elected governor.
He ought to find plenty of takers,
hut you may be certain Coley is only
trying to work a bluff. He stands no
ppu'V more chance than a snow ball in a
^ * warm climate.
I ""J Cole Blease won't get get as many
votes for governor as he did when he
Tin for lieutenant governor some
years ago. In that race he didn't
carry Newberry county, and we understand
he will not carry it this
year. His campaign is looked on as
a joke in the up-country.
No doubt the board of pardons has
done well in recommending the pardon
of J. J. Hughes, and he will be
released from the penitentiary in
September. The lesson he has had
has been a terrible one, but we believe
it will result in good to him.
Jeff hughes was all right when sober,
and whiskey is to blame for his
rash. act. This experience will no
doubt learn him to leave it alone.
We had intended to write up for
this issue the meeting of the State
Press Association at Gaffney last
week, but to tell the truth we have
lot yet recovered from the handsome
mtertainment given the press party,
k> it will have to go over 'till next
Epft week. There is so much to be said
that considerable space will neceesarily
be devoted to it. No town
' or cIty has ever attempted to do
things on the scale of Gaffney, in the
Slip ?' enterta*nlllS the Association,
and they succeeded admirably. If
{gs5?v We could put the Gaffney spirit into
v x-the people of bamberg, we'd soon
have a city of 5,000 inhabitants, water
works, sewerage and an all round
i^fV' good town. v
W&fc v Great Western Busted.
v Insurance Commissioner F. H. Mc'
Master has been advised by Insurande
Commissioner Vandiver, of
Wf, Missouri, that the Great Western
W&[ Life Insurance Company, of Kansas,
Mo., has been found to be insolvent
and that proceedings will be instii
tuted to wind up the affairs of the
^'\ company.
k- It will be remembered that thej
J1" latter part of May Commissioner McMaster,
becoming suspicious of this
company, ruled it to show cause why
its license should not be revoked, givU.
ing notice in the papers of his purpose.
The company failing to make
the proper showing at the end of the
thirty days required by law, Commissioner
McMaster revoked the license
of this company. He is now informed
by the insurance commissioner
::j of Missouri that it is insolvent. It
seems likely, however, that the policy
holders of this company will be
p reinsured in another company.
Whether or not persons holding
stock in the company will get a return
on their stock remains to be
seen.
Commissioner McMaster suggests
that all parties interested write to
Mr. W. D. Vandiver, superintendent
of insurance, Jefferson City, Mo.
Goes Back to Chain Gang.
Lexington, July 7.?John Jacobs,
a young white man, who was convicted
of gambling along with several
others from New Brookland in the
early part of 1907,, and who was sentenced
to serve six months on the
county chain gang, escaping after
f serving only one month of his time,
gave himself up to Sheriff Corley in
Columbia on Saturday. The sheriff
received several letters from Jacobs
' N recently and in answer to these letters
the sheriff advised Jacobs to surrender.
This he agreed to do, and,
according to appointment Deputy
Sheriff Miller met Jacobs in Columbia
and brought him over on Saturday.
He has five months yet to
serve.
WHITE MAN KILLS NEGRO.
Negro Chased White Man's Wife With <
Crimal Intent.
Orangeburg, July 4.?Another
homicide has been recorded in ,
Orangeburg county. Between 8 and '
9 o'clock Friday morning J. L. Johnson,
white, shot and killed a negro
named Lige Walker, about two and '
a half miles from the town of !
Neece's, in this county. The cause
of the shooting was the alleged attempt
on the part of the negro to assault
the wife of Mr. Johnson. Nothing
was known here of the affair
until this morning, when Mr. Johnson
came to the city and surrendered
to Sheriff Dukes.
1f- TAhnortn oriri fnmilv live on I
i>l 1 UVUUDVU U>uu v
the place of J. M. Stephenson, by '
whom the former is employed, their
residences being about half a mile
apart. About 11 o'clock Thursday
morning Mrs. Johnson was in the
cotton field right by Stephenson's
house, near which the negro was
sharpening some farm implements.
Mrs. Johnson started toward her
home, and when about 150 yards
from Stephenson's house the negro
suddenly quit his work and began
running in the direction taken by
Mrs. Johnson, who was accompanied
by her seven-year-old son. They became
alarmed and also commenced
to run, the negro gaining on them
all the time. When very near the
house Walker stopped running, evidently
becoming frightened at the
screams of the lady and child, and
disappeared. The husband reached
home about 12 o'clock and found his ,
wife in a highly nervous state, and
was informed aDoui me occurrence.
He had no shells in the house at the
time hut procured some that afternoon.
He was unabla to locate the .
negro at the time so took his gun to
the field Friday morning with the in- j
tention of shooting Walker on sight.
Between 8 and 9 o'clock, seeing the
negro at Stephenson's gate in conversation
with the latter, he picked up
the gun and started toward the two
men. When within hearing distance
he found that Stephenson had discharged
Walker and was ordering
him off the place. The negro saw
him coming and turned to run when
Johnson fired, the load striking
Walker in the back. The negro
fell on his back, when Johnson
reloaded and fired again, the second
shot lodging in the abdomen, producing
instant death. Johnson then left
the scene of the trouble with the intention
of remaining away until after
the inquest, telling Stephenson where
he was going, a distance of about
two miles. H returned home before '
night and remained there until this
TrrVion Vio oamp to Oranee
UlUlUiUgf TT uvu uv w
burg and gave himself up.
It seems that Walter had been in
the neighborhood only about a month
and told conflicting stories concerning
his former whereabouts. He had
also made himself objectionable on
several previous occasions, and altogether
was considered something of
a suspicious character.
Dr. Henry S. Hartzog.
We congratulate Dr. Henry S. Hartzog
on winning a large place in the
hearts of the Baptists of Arkansas.
The Baptist Advance says: "The
Baptist Advance has been gratified
at the increasing tokens of popularity
of Dr. H. S. Hartzog, president of
Ouachita College. Last week he delivered
addresses before schools and
institutes at Pine Bluff and Clarendon
and as is usual there came expressions
of appreciation of his
scholarship and ability as a speaker.
Then from trustees and friends of
our schools (we say schools purposely,
Central as well as Ouachita)
there come expressions of confidence
and esteem that omens good things.
The cl^ar and strong ring'of his commencement
address for Christian
education set ablaze many hearts.
They warmed up toward him and for
him. We look for a great year both
at Ouachita and Central."
Girl Falls One Hundred Feet.
Miss Rossie Bradley, of Hagan,
Ga., fell from a trestle on the Tallulah
Falls Railway last week. Miss
Bradley was caught on the trestle by
a train and grasped a cross beam in
her futile attempt to hold on until
the train had passed. The train was
stopped before it reached the centre
of the trestle from which Miss Bradley
was suspended. Engineer Jones
had seen the young woman on the
track and soon brought his train to
a standstill. Leaping from his engine
he ran to her assistance. When
almost in reach of her she turned
loose and fell to the chasm below,
which was over 100 feet. Soon afterwards
she was picked up and carried
aboard the train. When Tullulah
Falls were reached the unconscious
girl was removed to the Cliff House,
j It was found that three ribs were
broken and her collar bone was fractured.
Unless complications arise,
it is thought she will recover.
For Jones's Cat.
A cat belonging to Mrs. Jones had
caused great annoyance to the small
boys of the neighborhood by killing
some of their pets, so they decided
to set a trap for it. Dwight, a little
boy of seven, with a very tender
' ? ? w\ r\ a_
neart, was mucu auam oumc muucent
cat would suffer, so printed the
following notice and pinned it on
the trap:
"This is for Jones's cat only."?
The August Delineator.
Says Blease Offered to Bet.
Columbia, July 3.?Mr. W. H. McCaw,
the Columbia correspondent of
the Charlotte Observer and the Augusta
Chronicle, in which newspapers
was printed the alleged assertion of
Mr. Cole L. Blease that he was willing
to bet $1,000 to $500 that he
would be the next governor of South
Carolina, and that he had $8,000 on
deposit at Newberry to bet the same
way, to-day sent to the newspapers
which he represents a very vigorous
statement in regard to Mr. Blease's
denial of the interview at Edgefield
yesterday. Mr. McCaw asserts positively
that Mr. Blease made the statements
attributed to him, while walking
between the Carolina Bank and
the Western Union Telegraph office.
Mr. Blease, he says further, would
not have been quoted had he not
"expressly invited publication of his
remark."
KILLED IN A BALL GAME.
Orangeburg County Lad, Hit Over
Heart bp Base Ball, Drops Dead.
Springfield, July 5.?Paul Morgan,
about 21 years old, was killed by being
hit with a pitched ball in a base
ball game at Morgantown, a place
about two miles from here, yesterday
afternoon. Young Morgan was batting
at the time and was struck just
over the heart, falling unconscious.
He died almost instantly. Grover
Cannon, the boy who pitched the ball,
is prostrated with grief.
j ?
When the accident occurreu, a
game was in progress, and young
Cannon was pitching for the opposing
team, with Morgan at the bat. Morgan
misjudged the ball, evidently, and
it struck over his heart. He made
one step in the direction of first base,
but turned around fell, dead. He
did not say a word. Friends rushed
to his assistance, and tried to revive
him with cold water, but failed.
Paul Morgan was the youngest
son of Mr. Morgan, a prosperous
farmer, living in the Morgantown
settlement. He was well known
here, having gone to the Springfield
High School last year.
Grover Cannon is a young boy
about 16 years old, and is a player
on the Springfield base ball team.
This accident is deplored by every
one. It is the first of its kind that
ever happened in this place.
Starved Son to. Death.
. Roanoake, Va., July 4.?In the Circuit
Court at Independence, Va., today
the jury in the Case of Lewis
Wingate, charged with the murder of
his ten-year-old son, returned a verdict
of murder in the second degree
and fixed his punishment at eighteen
years in the penitentiary. Wingate
collapsed when the verdict was read.
The boy's body was exhumed shortly
after death ?nd there were evidences
of cruel treatment and starvation.
It was charged that the father
pulled the boy's. teeth with blacksmith's
tongs to keep him from eating.
Lightning Strikes' Houses.
Spartanburg, July 4.?During heavy
rains and electrical storms this after
noon lightning struck three nouses
in the Arkwright Mill village and one
was totally destroyed. Rain was coming
down in perfect torrents and the
occupants of the houses were thrown
into a state of excitement by a vivid
flash of lightning, and the next moment
the houses burst into flames.
The fire department was called out
and two houses were saved from total
destructon. No one was injured by
thfe flash.
Cigar Factory Sold
Greenville, July 3.?The American
cigar factory in this city has been
purchased by Seidenberg & Co., extensive
tobacco dealers of New Jersey,
and will begin operations under
the management of this company
on Wednesday, July 8.
The sale of the property was made
on last Wednesday, July 1, and since
then the mill has been closed while
stock is being taken.
Superintendent F. T. Wise stated
this morning that the capacity of the
factory would be greatly increased
and that strictly first class cigars
would be manufactured.
Seidenberg & Co. has purchased
several factories in the South and
are known all over the United States
as manufacturers of the very best
quality of goods.
The building of the American cigar
factory, which is situated on east
Court street, was erected five years
ago by the Greenville Improvement
company, under which management
it has been operated until the first
of this month.
$10 FOR A SHAVE.
Gates Visits Home Town, Scattering
Money Right and Left.
Aurora, 111., June 29.?John W.
Gates visited his old home, in St.
Charles, yesterday. He and Mrs.
Gates arrived from New York unheralded
to bid farewell to Mr.
Gates's mother before leaving on an
automobile tour of Europe.
Mr. Gates strolled into the barber
shop of a friend, E. T. Cassidy. After
being shaved he threw down a
$10 gold piece, and, with a laughing
** ?.11 4- of voot
iareweu, suugui buwi.
Urchins playing on the walks excited
more generosity, a shower of
dimes, quarters and half dollars being
scattered among them.
From David Wilson Mr. Gates
bought for $25,000 a farm stocked
with blooded cattle. A friend, E. J.
Baker, coveted the property. Mr.
Gates then said to Baker:
"Ed, take this deed to that chunk
of land I've? just bought. It's yours."
Wanted His Dues.
A reservation Indian was disconsolate
over the breaking of his axe
handle. He laid his misfortune before
the "farmer" of the reservation,
who, through pity, took a new handle
from his private stock and adjusted
it to the axe. The farmer
then noticed that the ax was shockingly
dull. So motioning the owner
to turn the grindstone, he expended
a half hour's time in sharpening the
blade. When the rehabilated ax wa?
given to the Indian he was childishly
gleeful, but still lingered about, indicating
by his actions that some
feature of the transaction had not
been adjusted.
The farmer was a. little annoyed
and called to an interpreter. "Ask
the old fellow what he wants now,'
he directed.
After an exchange of grunts and
gestures the interpreter announced
"He wants 25 cents."
"Twenty-five cents! What for?"
"For turning the grindstone."?

Tallest Office Structure Will be Built
in New York and Will Rear 909
Feet in the Air
New York, July 1.?Plans for a
gigantic building, to be the loftiest
in the world, overtopping by over
200 feet the Metropolitan tower,
were filed recently with Building Superintendent
Murphy by D H Burnham
& Co., architects, of Chicago,
acting for the Equitable Life Assurance
Society.

A Grateful Son-in-Law.
H. H. Rogers, on his return voyage
from Bermuda last month, said
one evening in the smoking room of
his traveling companion Mark Twain:
"He. is an incorrigible humorist.
Even in. his most emotional moments
he can't help being funny.
"When he married in Elmira in
1870 his father-in-law made him a
present of a fine, well-furnished
house in Buffalo.
"The present came as a surprise.
Mark Twain knew nothing of it till,
amid a party of relatives and friends,
he was shown over the luxurious
place. Then, when they told him it
vjaa his tears filled his eyes.
"But he was still the humorist,
and turning to his father-in-law. he
said, though in a voice that trembled
| a little:
" 'Mr. Langdon, whenever you're
in Buffalo, if it's as. much as twice a
year, you are to cdme right up here
and take tea. You can stay all night,
too, if you want to, and it shant cost
you a cent.' "?Washington Star.

families of Abe Conger and Jim Taylor,
Sr., culminated in a clash Sunday
at Salem Church, in Tift county,
whera the parties were attending an
all-day singing, in which the elder
Taylor and four sons were pitted
against Conger and his sons, Abe and
Barney. The elder Conger was shot

A Usurer.
A story is told by a lawyer of Little
Rock, Ark., about the sad case
of a native of that town who sought
justice by reason of the theft ol
a horse belonging to him. As, however,
the man who took the animal
returned it to the owner, the lawyer
advised the aggrieved. one to let the
matter drop.
"Can't I' have him arrested for usury,
then?" demanded the man, indignantly.
"What on earth do you mean?"
. "Daggone it, mister, he used the
hoss, didn't he? Yes, sir, he used
him mighty hard by the looks ol
him."?Philadelphia Ledger.
