Old Negro Not a Suicide. Batesburg, April 12.?On Saturday morning it was reported that 1 Allen Sample, an old negro man living near Baxter, had accidentally killed himself with a shotgun. Later developments seem to throw a different light on the occurrence, and it now appears that the old man was : murdered, presumably by some mem- i ber of his own family. Allen was about 75 years old. It < seems that on Saturday morning he . was in a room by himself when the discharge of the gun was heard and 1 an investigation showed that he was : dead from a wound in the head. Acci- ! dent and suicide were both mention- ] ed, but an examination into the mat- i | ter by Coroner Clark and a jury re- i vealed that the shooting was done j with an old fashioned single-barreled < gun of the muzzle loading type. The i location of the wound showed, moreover, that the charge had entered i directly back of the head and had 5 ranged directly forward, a shot that j could hardly have been fired by the i deceased without certain regalia, 1 which regalia was not in evidence. \ The jury of inquest returned a ] verdict that the deceased came to his < death by a gunshot wound made by ' the hands of parties unknown. < < JURY ACQUITS ACCUSED. i ??? l Men Accused of Young Game War- i den's Murder Freed.

Norfolk Chief Prevents the Destruction of a Hotel. Norfolk, Va., April 12.?Fire originating in the bottom of the freight elevator, where a plumber overturned. a lighted candle and ignited a paint brush, threatened serious damage to the Monticello hotel to-day. While the fire was confined to the cellar, the smoke filled the outside from top to bottom, and from the outside it looke^ for a time as though the building was doomed. Finding it impossible to close the windows to the elevator shaft from the inside, Fire Chief McLoughlin went to the roof, seven stories, and with a fire belt around his waist, was lowered from the outside, shutting the windows and cutting off the draught as he descended. He reached the fifth floor just in time to pre vent a negro chambermaid from throwing herself to the street. Thought Floyd was Democrat. Washington, April 12.?A peculiar situation has developed with reBpect to the appointment of a postmaster at Spartanburg, to succeed Col. S. T. Poinier, who died recently. A few days after Col. Poinier died Mr. M. W. Floyd came to Washington armed -with numerous petitions from some of the best people in Spartanburg endorsing him for the place. Everything seemed to be going his way, and it appeared that the sending of his name to the senate would be only a matter of a few clays until the usual regulations could be gone through with. However, during the last few days it has developed that some of those who endorsed Mr. Floyd are now anxious to have their names taken off the petition. They allege that at the time they gave their endorsement they thought they were getting a Democrat, but that in reality it turns cut that Mr. Floyd is a Republican, rhe officials here have been notified of a change of feeling on the part of some of those who signed the petitions for Mr. Floyd. But as the situation is entirely unusual there does aot seem to be any way just now out of the matter. No one wants to go to the president and tell him that because Mr. Floyd is a Republican be should not be appointed, especially in view of the fact that as apoears from the records these enlorsements were given Mr. Floyd as i man. and because of his high standing with the people of Spartanburg. i n/1 n Af bnnoiicn a f Viio r?AHfinc" T f xnu uui yj i 1110 puiiuto. i t seems now that unless those who isked for this appointment are able :o show some good reason why Mr. Floyd should not be appointed other :han that he is a Republican, he will eventually "land." No move has beeen made in the case lately, and t is not known what will be done. For Sale.?Extra fine thoroughbred Jersey cow, giving with first ;alf 2% gallons per day. She's a beauty. Apply to H.
