I SHOOTS NEGRO FOUR TIME&.
1 Dr. Able Wounds Negro Who Drew I
Pistol on His ratner.
IK
ft
St. Matthews, Nov. TO.?Dr. L. M.
Able, a prominent merchant and t
druggist, shot and wounded Jim J
Buysk, a negro of unenvitble repu- 1
tation on the streets of St. Matthews 1
to-day. Buyck had used some very
severe language to Dr. A. R. Able, i
the aged father of the man who did
K the shooting. When he was asked s
to explain his conduct, Buyck reached i
for and drew his pistol. The younger c
Dr. Able, standing near by, perceived j
his father's danger and fired upon t
Buyck. Five shots were fired, four s
of which took effect. The wounds i
are not thought to be of a serious nature.
Buyck was taken charge of and a
his wounds given attention. Dr. c
Abie and his father surrendered im- 1
mediately to the authorities. -\

Opening of the Pennsylvania Railroad l
Station, New York City. <
i
????? K
The Atlantic Coast Line makes of- 1
ficial announcement that all their 1
& trains will enter the new Pennsylvania
railroad station Seventh Ave- 1
nue and Thirty-second street, New *
York, on and after November 27th, *
and that the West Twenty-third street (
ferry, and the Brooklyn annex ferry 1
will be discontinued on and after that 1
date. i
The "Florida and West Indian Limited"
will leave from the New York
station at 10:16 a. m. and arrive at
2:31 p. m. The "Palmetto Limited"
will leave at 3:38 p. m. and arrive .
I
1:50 p. m. and the "Coast Line Flori- (
da Mail" will leave 9:30 p. m. and ar- ]
rive 5:59 a. m. Upon the inauguration
of the "New York and Florida
Special," January 9th, that train will
leave New York 1:26 p. m., and arrive
4:06 p. m.
It will be seen from the foregoing '
that passengers will have consider- .
able advantages, not only from the
convenience of reaching the station, ;
which is centrally located and adja- ^
cent to street car lines, extending to
all parts of the city, but in a later departure
and an earlier arrival in the "
* city. ]
The travel to the down town sec- '
tion will be provided by trains from \
the Manhattan Transfer Station, '
lonated at Harrison, N. J., and
. . . at which all through trains from
f the South will stop. They wili be 5
taken to the passenger station in Jersey
City and can reach the lower Man- 1
hattan by the Hudson and Manhattan
tubes, or by ferry to Cortlandt, or (
r
Desbrosses streets, which service will
be continued.
Passengers to and from Brooklyn (
will transfer in Pennsylvania station, <
to and from Flatbush avenue, Brook- <
lyn, via the tubes under the East 1
River, thereby saving much time and ,J
annoyance.
Under the new arrangement, ef- <
fective November 27th, all the Pullman
cars operated to and from New
^ York over the Atlantic Coast Line will
be electric lighted and equipped with
\ / electric fans.
The location of the station appeals
directly to the (hotel guest, the shop- ;
.per, the amusement seeker, the business
man, the professional man and
every class/of travel to and from New
York, over the Atlantic Coast Line, ,
f.i as the new station is in the very heart
of the hotel district, only one block
from Broadway, two blocks from (
Fifth Avenue, and one block from the <
centre of the retail drygoods section,
which is supposed to be the busiest
part of New York city.

Union, Nov. 9.?In the election in
f this county yesterday on the question
* of issuing $75,000 in bonds for a new
court house, the vote was 471 for and
449 against, giving a majority of 22
in favor of the issue of the bonds.
It was thought four remote precincts
would overcome the lead in
favor of bonds, but they cast very
small majorities against, one of the
f* four voting in favor of the issue. So
Union county will have a handsome
new court house to replace the present
one, which was erected in 1825
and has outlived the time when it
was adequate for the needs of the
people.
t Carlisle Fitting School.
k President Snyder visited recently
the Carlisle Fitting School at Bamberg.
He found a fine body of serious-looking
young men and women,
apparently capable and willing to do
the best kind of work. Headmaster
and his two assistants. Messrs.
Duncan and Betts, would be hard to
improve on. They have the ability,
the training, the experience, the
character, the consecration for their
special duties. There is no school in
that section of the State better equipped
or better manned for high school
work. Intelligent, discriminating
patrons will find this out as the days
go by. Thorough, honest, efficient
work and high moral ideals repre/
sent the standard of the school.?S,

is. The inquest was held over the ^
ep body Friday, when the particulars, c
id so far as possible, were disclosed by F
ot one of the eyewitnesses of the af- *
e- fair. The place where the shooting
is took place was in Barnwell county, ]
s- on the outskirts of Williston, and (
is, until notice of the death of Thompson
was received by Coroner Johnin
son, of Aiken county, nothing of the I
ut affair had reached the ears of the of- 1
at ficers of the law. It -seems that the *
tie two negroes met near Williston and (
tie Kelly asked Thompson to give him (
id or pay him a quarter, for reasons 1
g- which were unknown to the witness. ^
A. Thompson refused to turn over the ]
li- money and a row ensued, in which 3
to Kelly pulled his pistol, the only one j
in the crowd, and shot Thompson, j
ve The wounded man was carried to his ]
s, home at White Pond, in this county, 1
er where he died Thursday. *
tie The cause of the trouble over the ^

Further Move in Franklin Case. A
id (
th Will the case of Paul Franklin be I
ed placed in the hands of white attor- j
37 neys? This conclusion is reached fol- s
lowing the movements about the ]
tr, State house of the negro attorneys <
21 for the negro who has been sentenced ^
adx to hang in Orangeburg county and a ^
lis representative or some Kina 01 pm- i
th lanthropic society of New York city.
?8, A white woman called at several offices
in the State house during the
s: day and asked for the court records.
5,- She was directed to the office of the
1,- clerk of the supreme court. She
is- stated to Col. U. R. Brooks that she
ia, was to meet Adams and Moore, the neth
gro attorneys for Franklin, and that
[),- she would like to see the records in
er the case. Before she further explained
her mission John Adams, one of the
>t- negro attorneys, came in.' She held
[a, a conference with him in the suth
preme court room and then left the
building. Alams asked Col. Brooks
for a copy of the latest appeal in the
Franklin case. He was furnished the
n- copy and left the State house.
Franklin, the Orangeburg county
gg negro, who several years ago killed
ri- a constable named Valentine, has
Id been before the courts, both federal
*S- and State several_times. The Orange"at
burg county court sentenced him to
hang. There was an appeal to the
State supreme court and this verdict i
was sustained. The case was later
appealed to the United States supreme
court. There was a contenan
, tion of a constitutional violation in
nd
the selection of the grand jury which
ol_ handed out the indictment against
Franklin. The State supreme court
Br- . . . , .
ke recently gave an opinion ordering a
he new day to be set for the execution
of Franklin.
The attorneys for Franklin ap
iur
peared before Judge Sease in Orangel0t
burg and asked for a new trial on the
grounds of after discovered evidence.
an The new trial was refused and an
)p_ appeal was taken to the supreme
aU court. Tlfis appeal is now before the
court.
ke The representative of the New
jn_ York society did not state her busi;ar
ness. It is expected that there will
be some sort of an announcement as
fer to the case within the next few days.
