Waterloo, Sept. 2.?At Cedar Grove negro church, two miles from this place, John Henry Anderson yesterday afternoon fatally shot Josh Carter, the latter dying this morning at daylight. For some months Anderson has not lived with his wife, but she has lived with her father, Carter. One of Anderson's children died Sunday and it was just before the burial began that the shooting took place. Carter is an aged colored man, who bears a good reputation. Anderson is regarded as a dangerous negro. Six months ago he shot a young Mr. Benjamin of this county. The inquest over Carter's body was held this morning by Magistrate W. W. Campbell, acting for the coroner. Anderson made good his escape, but 50 or more determined i-li? ??J vi? #> w/N anAiii*mor men, wniies <11111 uia^hs, aic swuuu^ the country for him.

Statesboro, Ga., Sept. i.?News reached Statesboro of a lively incident which occurred at Stilson, iO miles from here, Saturday night between prominent citizens of that place. It is said that Joe Brown and n. C. Barnhill were in the house drinking from a jug of whiskey, when the wife of Barnhill appeared upon the scene. Failing to get the men separate, and go home, she told her daughter who had accompanied her to the scene to go home and get a pistol, which was done. Upon returning the wife of Barnhill opened fire, first firing at the jug, it is said. She shot again, and this time hit Barnhill, her husband, in the hand, the bullet going through. Brown, the other man, then ran, it is said, out of the house and through to the back fence, which was so high he could not get over. He fell back to the ground, it is said, laid there and begged for mercy. B. F. Ferrill, a farmer, near Danville, Ky., narrowly escaped death after he had sucked a mouthful of bees into his windpipe while removing honey from a bee-hive. Ferrill was using a large wooden pipe, blowing smoke into the bee-hive to keep the bees from stinging him. Barred in North Carolina. Raleigh, N. C., Sept. 3.?Acting' Attorney General Hoyden Clement I to-day rendered an opinion that John R. Early of Lynn, N. C., the leper now quarantined in the District of Columbia, could not be received by North Carolina and that his wife, who is with him must be quarantined indefinitely by the health board of Polk county in case she returns to her home at Lynn. In his opinion, the attorney general says there would be danger to people in the territory, whether by rail or through the country; that the disease became apparent in Washington and that North Carolina is not called upon to care for citizens ill in anothstato nr in the United States out side of this State; that there are no provisions ^or a case of this kind in the charity work of the State and that Early is a discharged soldier of the United States with the disease contracted while in its employ; it is the duty of the federal government to care for him. In case Mrs. Early returns to Polk county he holds that she must be quarantined indefinitely. Boy Accidentally Killed. Spartanburg, Sept. 5.?James Posey, aged 8 years, who was accidentally shot yesterday afternoon with a parlor rifle in the hands of Roger Phillips, a playmate, died in the Spartanburg hospital this morning at 5 o'clock. Everything possible was done to save the little boy's life and five physicians worked with him yesterday aternoon and last night. The body will be taken to Hendersonville, ^ N. C., to-morrow for burial. The death of the child is still being kept from his mother, who is critically ill in the hospital in which her son > died. DUEL IX MIDSTREAM. Dramatic Affair Between Two Fishermen?A Woman the Cause. Memphis, Tenn., Sept. 4.?Enmity between two fishermen having its origin several years ago, when, i* is alleged, the wife of one deserted him for the other, reached a spectacular culmination in midstream of the Mississippi river last night near this city when S. L. Smith and his son were fired upon, the younger man being killed and the elder wounded by P. u. Nichols, the man, who, it is alleged, was aggrieved, according to the statement of Smith, who reported the occurrence to the police today. Smith asserts that he and his son were returning shortly after nightfall in a motor boat from tending their lines and encountered Nichols in a skiff. The latter, according to Smith, opened fire, killing the younger man and seriously wounding the elder. Nichols escaped. Got Money but Left Baby. Chicago, Sept. 4.?Mrs. Anna Ludwig, of South Chicago, is out $2,460 because she thought money safer in the pillow of her baby's go-cart than it would be in a bank. | Two men who boarded at her house offered to take the baby out for an airing Sunday evening. They did not return. Neither did the baby. Mrs. Ludwig became alarmed, and an exciting hunt along Commercial avenue followed. The baby and go-cart were found, but the money was gone. I Going to Augusta. i Mr. T. D. Jones, who has been principal of the Ehrhardt graded school for several years, has resigned the position. He will go to Augusta the first of October to accept the position of cashier of the insurance agency of Burke & Lorick, who are general agents of the Empire Life Insurance Company for Southern Georgia and South Carolina. Mr. Jones tendered his resignation to the board of trustees last week, and Mr. Willie Hiers has been elected principal. Mr. Hiers lives near Ehrhardt. He is a graduate of the University of South Carolina, and hag had some experience in the school room. He is a young man of ability and energy, and we feel sure he will make a success of the work there and keep up the fine record established by Mr. Jones. It is with regret that the many friends of Mr. Jones in this county will give him up. He is a gentleman of fine character, an energetic and enthusiastic school worker, and withal a good citizen. He has done a fine work in the Ehrhardt school, and the impetus his efforts have given to educational matters in that section have been of great benefit to the community and county. Here's good luck to you, Mr. Jones. fortune* a week. Detroit Woman Used Up Over $10o,? 000 in Six Days. Spending $100,000 in six days is going some, even for New York. And just to add a touch of interest to the story the party who has been making money flow like water for the past week along Broadway is a very intelligent and pleasant little woman from Detroit, .Mich. - What makes this story seem all [the stranger is tnat Martins, snerry's?none of those populai resorts were any the wiser for the fact she was here, no theatre parties, wine parties, dinner parties, nor any other parties were formed by her or in her honor. She just came, spent hei money quietly and to-day will gc away again This record-breaking spender is Mrs. H. Sterns and she is stopping at the Astor. She is a buyer for twc big Detroit houses and she dropped in here, quietly just six days ago Since she arrived she has got awaj with a small fortune, but she is going to take back to Detroit value received, which is more than Detroiters and others do who come here to blov in the money somebody has made ir lumbering, or in iron mines, or raising celery at Kalamazoo. Mrs. Sterns was asked how she enjoyed the trip. "Fine," she replied. "There are other women buyers of course; but they devote their talents entirely to specialties, such as millinery. In fact, there are comparatively few outside the milling line. "I buy anything The stores foi which I am working this trip are department stores, and of course, thai means that the buyer takes in everything. "In the past six days I have spenl more than $100,000. I think I have bought pretty nearly everything un der the sun."?New York Telegram He Did Not Bid. The other day a local merchanl happened to see a farmer with some goods that came from a mail ordei house. He noticed also that the goods were right in his store foi years. He immediately approached the farmer and said: "I could have sold you the verj same article you have there for less money and saved you freight besides." "Then why didn't you say so?" answered the farmer. I have taker the home paper for years and have never seen a line about your selling these goods. The mail order house sent advertising matter to me, asking for my trade, and they got it. If yoi had any bargains, why didn't yot have them put in the paper, so we can see what you have to offer?" City council held a regular monthly meeting Monday evening, but onl] routine business was transacted. i \ AUGUSTA FLOOD SITUATION GRAPHIC PICTURE OF SCENES IN THE GEORGIA CITY. Question of Relief Now Paramount. Water Supply Causing Deep Concern. Augusta, Ga., Sept. 2.?Until the river was in its banks again the city was talking of the flood. Now the water is gone and Augusta beholds destruction and disaster almost unbelievable. The paramount question is now relief, quick relief for the homeless, the half-clad and the hungry. All attempt at accurate estimate of the flood damage Is given up. Daily it is seen that all previous approximates fell short of the mark. The nitv of Augusta is entirelv de pendent upon her canal for the water supply, for electric lights and trolley car service, for motive power in the mills. That canal is now a dry 1 ditch. Above the city pumping sta tion its banks gave way before the raging waters and the wheels of industry are paralyzed. ! Result: For three hours each i morning a meagre supply of muddy ; water is turned into the pipes The pressure is not sufficient to force it - higher than the second floor of any > building. During that brief period 1 there is a crawling current in the sewers. For the rest of the day they are stagnant. The water is not fit to drink. The streets are in utter, darkness, save for the feeble light of a young . moon and the flicker of house lamps. . The fire alarm system is entangled and confused. A small blaze just ! now might be fanned by a high wind , into flames that would prey upon a , city practically unprotected. Trolley car service is inadequate, but all that may be reasonably ex| pected, when the railway company are using auxiliary steam power to . propel machines that stood three days in water and mud. Four large and several smaller , cotton mills stand idle along the banks of the Augusta Canal, not a hundred dollars' worth of their ma chinery injured, but unable to turn furnished. Five thousand mill opera wheel until the motive power is atives are idle, many of them homeless, hungry and without a change - of raiment, all of them restless and discontent. A fearful stench covers the flood , area like a pall. Odor of decayed . vegetable and animal matter, the vile , smell of unfinished sewers, the smell . of filthy mud that in many places lies piled in great heaps waist high? ! these and a dozen other odors are everywhere. Inside coors it is oppressive, outside it's worse. When one leaves the city behind he leaves its stench behind, but not until then. Down scores of streets the waters swept like a mill race. Around cor' ners the current jerked water plugs from their connections; undermined curbstones and ripped up great 1 squares of cement sidewalk; prized | up thousands of pavement bricks and ! swent them together many blocks in | great heaps like drifted sncw; scoop; ed out tons of macadam gravel and washed it miles away; washed gullies 1 down Greene street, Augusta's most beautiful residence thoroughfare, as deep as a man's waist; tore down buildings, brick walls, fences, [ hedges; carried away furniture; cap[ sized boats; caught men in the ; mighty current and swept them away ' like straws, to finally sink and drown [ or dash out their brains against obstructions they may have seen, butj ' could not avoid. With a situation more desperate | and dangerous than it has ever be' fore or ever will confront again, the J proud city of Augusta is grappling 1 with enfeebled strength, but undaunt' ed courage. The funds of her municipal government have been placed in the | hands of tireless workers, who shall ' relieve the destitute, the sick and the dying, are being paid to an army 1 of laborers who are toiling like Turk? to bring order out of chaos. Temporary repairs in the canal may put it in shape to hold water today, while to-morrow a contract will be awarded by the city for complete ' reconstruction of the damaged sec| tions. The street railway authorities ' oro onarintr no pfPnrt to ftOllin their 'r machinery for full work as soon as ' possible. Expert electricians are here, and work has not ceased since the water went down, night or day. " Hundreds of men are at work on the city's streets. Steam and gasoline engines line both sides of Broad , street, pumping out cellars. Contri[ butions for the relief of the destitute ' come in afresh each day from every side. Ferries have been established ' at the North Augusta and Centre street bridge crossings, affording communication with neighboring Caro lina counties. The city is resuming ; her activity. Before many weeks she will be the same old Augusta, ; triumphant over disaster. ^ Goes Into Bankruptcy. r Laurens. Sept. 1.?News was re ; ceivfed nere Monaay tnar Mr. neurv - Z. Rees, manager of the Harris Lithia Springs Hotel, had gone into - bankruptcy. The Harris Springs i Company leased the hotel this season ; to Mr. Rees, an experienced hotel ; man from Augusta, and because of ? poor patronage the management was ; forced to close down. Mr. John M. i Cannon, representing Mr. Rees, and i Mr. A. C. Todd, representing the i creditors, went down to Harris's Springs Monday afternoon to look into the condition of affairs and afr feet a settlement if possible. Just j the amount of liabilities cannot be learned at present. LAW AND THE SABBATH. Supreme Court Says the Selling of Ice on Sunday is Illegal. Under this decision of the State supreme court rendered in the case of the State against William James, the selling of meat and ice, or meat or ice, on Sunday in this state is a violation of the law, unless perhaps in a "great city." The supreme court upholds the decision of Circuit Judge Prince and its terms are quite strong in enunciating the Sunday law. The decision is written by Associate Justice C. A. Woods, who is a Methodist, and is concurred in by the other members of the court, Chief Justice Pope being a Baptist, Justice Gary an Episcopalian and Justice Jones a Seceder. If the law as stated by the court is enforced it may cause serious inconvenience in many towns where the /\f ino An CnnHav io tho r>rtm mon thing. In Columbia and other towns the delivery of not only ice, but ice cream, is common, though in other respects in Columbia the law is strictly enforced by the municipal authorities, and it is impossible to buy a cigar or a drink of soda water on Sunday in this city. In fact, it is easier to buy a drink of whiskey in Columbia on Sunday than a drink of lemonade. The court intimates, however, that in the matter of what is a necessity there may be a difference between a town and a city. The Result in Bamberg.

Recently he was engaged in the [ risky business of bootlegging in Oklahoma. As a consequence he landed in jail and had no funds to pay his fine. In his direful extremity he evolved a plan which he thought would work out his liberation. He sent the following message to his stepfather, Rack Rack: "I am dead. Send me $10 to bury myself." The appeal was too strong for Rack Rack to resist and the money ^as forthcoming.?Holton Recorder. SMITH ELECTED SENATOR! DEFEATS JOHN GARY EVANS BY BIG MAJORITY. Swearingen Defeats Mellichampe. Cansler and Canghman Running Neck and Neck. Columbia, Sept. 9.?At one o'clock this morning The State had received returns from all but two counties, but of course but few of the counties were complete. Nearly eighty thousand votes had been accounted for at this hour, and it is not thought the total vote will reach one hundred thousand. Evans is away behind Smith and is defeated. Swearingen defeats Mellichampe, while Cansler anil Laugiinmn arc ruuum^ ucva auu neck for railroad commissioner. However, the odds are in favor of Cansler, and he will no doubt defeat Caughman. The totals are: U. S. SENATOR. John Gary Evans 30,043 E. D. Smith 41,339 SUPT. OF EDUCATION. S. R. Mellichampe 31,407 J. E. Swearingen 40,959 R. R. COMMISSIONER. Jas. Cansler 36,521 B. L. Caughman 36,178 In the judicial circuit in which Columbia is situated, W. Hampton Cobb defeats Geo. R. Rembert by a good majority for solicitor. Over in the Pee Dee country the returns are coming in slow, and it cannot be stated with any degree of certainty whether Wells or Quattlebaum will win for solicitor of that circuit. The race seems to be close. For congress, J. E. Ellerbe has defeated J. W. Rags dale, of Florence, very handsomely, and D. E. Finley will succeed himself in congress, he defeating T. B. Butler, of Gaffney, by a good majority. Smith Leading by Big Majority. Charleston, Sept. 8. 10:00 p. m.? To H. C. Polk, Bamberg, S. C.

NEWS & COURIER. Murders in Barnwell. Barnwell, Sept. 7.?Barnwell county had two more murders added to her list. On Saturday afternoon L. F. Miles had a fuss with a negro named Caleb Nix. A short time afterwards Miles met Nix and after a few words shot him four times, each shot taking effect. The negro died almost instantly. Miles gave himself up to the authorities. Nix had a large knife open in his pocket when searched after his death. This afternoon L. W. DeWitt of Blackville cut to death a Mr. Gruber in his front yard. There seems to have been some personal matter between the two men. Mr. Gruber came by Mr. DeWitt's yard and after a few words started in the gate. Mr. DeWitt advanced in his shirt sleeves to meet him. Gruber reached for his pistol and as he did Mr. DeWitt pulled his pocket knire ana cioseu in on him. He cut Gruber about the head and neck, almost severing the head from his body. Gruber died almost instantly. DeWitt gave himself up to the sheriff immediately after the killing, Sheriff Creech being in Blackville. Both DeWitt and Miles are now in jail. Use for All. Three ministers wanted to cross the Mississippi river to attend a revival at a place which boasted of no regular ferry. Brother Syles and Brother Beamish weighed at lease 200 pounds apiece, but their comnanion was a mite of a man weigh ing scarcely 100. They got a boatman to take them over, but In midstream a severe thunder shower came up and the waves threatened to capsize the boat. "Brother Syles," said Brother Beamish, "I think we had better join in prayer." "Do you. though?" shouted the boatman. "Wall, I say you don't! You two big ones come here an' lend a hand at the oars?an' let the skinny fellow pray." W. J. Bryan, the Democratic nominee for president, will be heard at G. A. Ducker's, Bamberg, S. C.

Aiken County Merchant's Head is Crushed by Train. Aiken, Sept. 6.?This morning a short distance from his home, near i Montmorenci, the mangled body of Mr. W. Hampton Woodward, a prosperous resident of that community, was found on the railroad track. Coroner Owens was immediately notified of the occurrence and went to the scene as soon as possible. The result of the inquest has not yet been learned, but several witnesses testifled to the fact that the train last v; night which killed Mr. Woodward had no headlight at all. The road is yr straight for at least half mile on ; either side of where he lay, and the body could have been seen in all probability had there been a good ^ headlight. , Last night Mr. Woodward was at " -3a Montmorenci until some time pre- . M vious to half past nine oclock. He kept a butcher shop at Montmorenci. It is known that he yts was intoxicated, and some one asked him if he did not wish some one to accompany him home, to which he vS replied that he did not, and went on toward his home by himself, walking on the railroad track. A little while fjg later, before the train came going to -;*J| Augusta, one of the brothers went, to "-rag see if he had gotten there all right v* As he was passing the place, where afterwards Mr. Woodward's body was Mj found, a little dog belonging to the dead man barked at him, but he did not think of looking there for his brother. He found that he was not at home and began looking for him. ' He could find no trace of him, and -?J? returned to Montmorenci. Before he had gotten to the station the train passed him, having no headlight. The morning train this morning found the body, which was lying heside the track, with the head crushed ' g&j and the brains spattered out. Appais ently he had lain down with his head ; f ^ on a crosstie and fallen asleep, and had never moved. There was only one wound on him, that on his head*.- 'M which completely crushed his skull. " Mr. Woodward resided about a mile from Montmorenci and was killed halfway from his home. Hia house, a pretty one, was situated by y-'M the railroad. He was a brother of : Cliff Woodward, for whose murder Luke Gray was hanged last summer. He had a good deal of property and was well to do. He owned a fine farm, and ran a store and a butcher V'cjSg business. He attended to business ;M strictly, and had accumulated some y?] wealth. He is survived by his wife '-< and several small children. GOT LICENSE TO WED CHILD. >3 Maryland Minister, Aged 67, Want- ed to Marry Girl of 10. Baltimore, Md., August 22.-?The ~'$g? intended marriage of the Rev. Geo. S. Fitzhugh, aged 67 years, and the ten-year-old Lula Virginia Frazier, a license authorizing which was is- / jSjH sued at Eliicott City, Md., a few days - ^M ago, will not take place. The license is in the possession of one of *||| the sons of Mr. Fitzhugh and will .J&f be returned to the issuing office. The intending bridegroom is still suffering from the heart attack to which he fell a yictim shorty after < ^ obtaining the marriage license, but if will be removed to a sanitarium to- . 'J morrow, two doctors having examine "JXs ed him at the request of his chR-' dren and declared him in need %of treatment for mental trouble. Littie Miss Frazier will in a few days be taken back to her home in Albemarle County by one of the men /tjjgj whose stepmother she had a narrow : escape from becoming. The ^3 Mr. Fitzhugh, who is a Virginian, /'JaB has been rector of St. Barnaba's -Mjjj Protestant Episcopal Church in Y7 Anne, Aroundel county, not far from this city, for about three years, and #3| members of his family believe that hi3 hard work for his parish tern- p porarily unhinged his mind, and '! that to this is attributable his expressed intention to marry the child, as Mr.'Fitzhugh himself stated, toin-% sure her the inheritance of his prop- r'yM erty. Met Death Bravely. Washington, Sept. 4.?"I suppose . these things have to happen occasion- , ally. I have read about them in > newspapers. I never thought I would one day be one of the unfortunates. Jj But everything is for the best. "I am sorry the end comes while I am away from home, but this is no Yj time to complain. It only happens once in a lifetime." So said Mrs. Lottie Harrison, of ^ 822 Camp street, New Orleans, a few minutes before her death at Casualty hospital as the result of being thrown from a train in a tunnel near the un- M ion station. Before dying, Mrs. Harrison dictated a number of telegrams to relatives and friends in New or- iy'g leans. She comes of a well known and wealthy family in the southern city. Among Mrs. Harrison's effects was found jewelry valued at $3,500, which has been turned over to the police for safekeeping. * Bridge Washed Away. Abbeville, Sept. 5.?At 5 o'clock this morning the Seaboard Air Line bridge over Haskell creek was washed away. Passenger train No. 38 had crossed this bridge at 4 o'clock. During the bigh water last week this bridge .was damaged. The Seaboard had just got three trains across their Savannah rive* bridge yesterday afternoon and last night. Now the main line is blocked again. Train No. 41 and about 40 passengers are held up here at Abbeville. The Seaboard officers hope to have the washout replaced by 12 o'clock Sunday.
