State News Boiled Down for Quick
Reading?Paragraphs About
Men and Happenings.
I*ev. M. B. Anderson, of Lexington,
Ky., has been elected president
of the new Anderson college.
The new postoffice building at
Greenwood has been completed, and
the inspector has accepted it, with
the exception of a few minor changes
to he made.
The people of Greenwood and Saluda
counties last week voted against
the proposition to issue bonds for
$150,000 to build a railroad from
Greenwood to Saluda.
Th Jonesville Manufacturing company
of Jonesville,' which went into
bankruptcy some time ago with assets
at $260,000 and liabilities nearly
as much, was bid off on Wednesday
by Attorney Haynesworth, of Greenville,
for $125,000.
>R. W. Owens, a farmer living near
Honea Path, was. shot in the face
with a shotgun a few days ago by
Cleve Bagwell in a fuss about a negro
hand. Owens, who is a married
man and has three little children,
will lose the sight of both eyes.
Sheriff P. H. Corley, of Lexington,
'has resigned his position, and his
deputy; S. J. Miller, has been ap
pointed to fill out the unexpired
term. Mr. Corley has been sheriff
for eight years, and was re-elected
last time without opposition. He has
made an excellent official. He resigns
because of his physical condition,
as he is suffering from wounds
received from being shot by a negro
some months ago.
The special election held in Sumter
county on the question of issuing
bonds to the amount of $150,000
for good roads resulted in a tie, but
the county .board threw out the Mayesville
box because of irregularities,
which gave a majority for the
bonds. The opponents of the bond
issue are not pleased with this action,
and will likely appeal to the
State board of canvassers, and no
doubt the matter will finally get into
the courts. It would have been much
better had the whole vote been
thrown out and a new election held.
A small majority either way should
not control in so important a matter.

WANTS SABBATH OBSERVED.
Governor Blease Orders Sunday
Amusements Stopped.
Gov. Blease has addressed to Sheriff
Coleman, of Richland county, a
letter directing him to abate alleged
nuisances at Ridgewood, in respect
to violations of the Sabbath observance
laws; the letter follows:
W. H. Coleman, Sheriff Richland
County, Columbia.?Dear Sir: I am
informed that there is a shooting
gallery, which is operated on the
Sabbath, at Ridgewood, and I am also
informed that there is a game,
commonly described as "throwing
the babies," which is also operated
on the Sabbath at that place.
Yon will Dlease eo there and make
an investigation and if you find this
is the case, close up these places and
arrest the operators. Please give this
matter your prompt attention, as in
my opinion there is nothing more
degrading to the morals of -the people
than the desecration of the Sabbath
day. Very respectfully,
COLE L. BLEASE,
Governor.
GIRL SWIMS 21 MILES.
Miss Pitonof Performs Feat*Never
Before Accomplished.
New York, Aug. 13.?'Rose Pitonof,
the 16-year-old swimmer, of Boston,
succeeded to-day in her attempt to
swim from East Twenty-sixth street,
Manhattan, to Coney Island. Last
year she had to abandon a similar
effort because of adverse tides, but
to-day, although forced at times to
swim so far out of her course that
she is estimated to have covered some

18 miles, she finished strong, actually
sprinting as she neared the goal;
Miss Pitonof was in the water 8
hours and 7 minutes. She took no
* *
stimulants or food or any Kma on
the long trip. Most of the way she
used the breast stroke, but for two
stretches she resorted to the speedier
over-hand stroke.
The young woman's feat of to-day
had not -before been accomplished.
Several swimmers have made the trip
from the Battery to Coney Island,
but none from a point so far up the
river.

i route from Chicago to New York
jumped the track on the western outskirts
of this city, at 6:30 o'clock
this evening, while going at the rate
of 50 miles an hour. In leaving the
rails, the two engines pulling the passenger
train sideswiped a freight engine
and the three piled up in a

Taken to Hospital.
The police department and fire department
and every automobile in
the city were called to the scene of
the accident and the injured were
soon taken to the hospitals. At least
50 were on the scene within a half
hour of the time the trains came together',
and within a short time
thousands of people had collected
about the wreck.
The main track and the track on
which the freight,train was standing
was torn up for a distance of two
hundreds yards. The two engines of
the flyer were torn from their trucks
and thrown down the embankment,
while the engine or the rreignt reared
in the air over the trucks of the
flyef's engines. Passengers in the
seven- rear cars escaped-with only
cuts and bruises.
Engines Down Embankment.
The baggage car, smoker, buffet
and two sleepers turned over In the
ditch. Most of the injured were
seated in the dining car and smoker
when the accident occurred. . The
two engines of the flyer were torn
from their trucks and thrown down
the embankment to the park.
Th? all-steel pars of the fiver were
' put to the first actual wreck test
they have undergone and proved to
be all that had been claimed for
-them by their designers. Only the
first two cars of the heavy nine-car
train were much smashed. Passengers
in the seven rear cars escaped
with only cuts and bruises, whereas,
it is declared by railroad men, if the
cars had been of the oljl-fashioned
wood construction, the carnage
would have been frightful. It will
-take a day or more to clear away the
wreckage, as the cars are extremely
heavy.
The wrecking crew from Fort
Wayne arrived at the scene within a
half hour, while the wrecking trains
from Crestline and Chicago arrived
later in the evening. Thirty more
passengers, who are badly bruised
and cut, are at the Anthony hotel.
Others Expected to JLne.
Several of the injured at a late
hour to-night are in extremely serious
conditions and it is expected
that their deaths will occur before
the night is over.
, Evidence seems to point to the
flyer going at an extreme rate of
speed over a temporary switch, as
being the chief cause of the accident.
From Valparaiso to Winona Lake,
the engine which brought the train
out of Chicago was going badly, so
the engine which was to take the

NEGRO BURNED AT STARE
PENNSYLVANIA MOB APPLIES
THE TORCH.
Negro Had Shot a Policeman?As
Many Women as Men Among
Executioners.
Coatsville, Pa., Aug. 13.?Zacariah
Walker, a negro desperado, was carried
on a cot from, the hospital here
to-night and*burned to a crisp by a
frenzied mob of men and boys. The
negro, who last night shot and killed
Edgar Rice, a special policeman oi
the Worth Iron mills, was first dragged
to the scene of the shooting, begging
piteously for mercy.
He ha^ been arrested by a posse
late this afternoon after a searcl
which stirred the country. The posse
finally found him hiding in a cherry
tree. The negro with the last bullet
in his revolver shot himself in the
mouth, falling from the tree. He was
removed to the hospital and placed
under guard.
Thousand People in Mob.
t
A few minutes after 9 o'clock a
crowd numbering almost 1,000 persons
appeared at the hospital. The
leaders were denied admission but
they quickly smashed the window
frames and crawled through the corridor'.
When Walker was first taker
to the hospital he was strapped dowr
in order to prevent his escape. The
mob, seeing this, gathered up -the bed
and placing it on the shoulders ol
four men, started for the country,
When half a mile from the hospital
they enterd a field and quickly gathered
up a pile of dry grass and
weeds, placed it in the bed containing
their victim on it
Women Took Part.
A match was applied and th
flames shot up quickly, entirely, enshrouding
the screaming victim. That
not a vestige of the murderer be left,
the mob tore down the fence along
the road and piled the rails on the
burning negro. After waiting foj
half an hopr the ipob dispersed. A
curious feature of the burning was
the fafct that there were almost as
many women in the crowd as men.
During the march from the hospital
to the scene of the burning ol
the negro, not a policeman was encountered
by the mob. Even th<
man on duty in the hospital mads
no effort to stop the leaders whc
gained admittance to the institution
The only masks worn by the members
of the mob were handkerchiefs
drawn ovgr their faces.

the train towards Fort Wayne
at 70 to 80 miles an hour. Jusl
east of the western limits a switch
was constructed to swing trains from
the regular track to another track,
This change in routing was made
necessary by track elevation work.
C. C. Chattell, 3942 Lake avenue
Chicago, was in the dining car when
the accident occurred. He escaped
with only slight injuries to his head
and face. "The train was running
at a terrific rate of speed," he declared.
"The first intimation I had
that anything was wrong was wher
all the passengers in the diner were
thrown headlong the entire length oi
the car.
Fighting Like Beasts.
"The next thing I realized, men
were fighting like beasts to get out,
and steam escaping-from the kitchen
was choking us. Another man and
I fell to the floor and crawled along
in the semi-darkness and among tl^e
cursing, screaming men to a window,
through which we made 'our escape."

and Fred Beckwith, of New York
city, passengers on the flyer, were
imprisoned in the vestibule, between
the diner and coach to the rear, when
the crash came, and were unable to
escape from their narrow prison.
Their cries attracted the rescuers,
who, under the direction of Police
Sergt. Dan Kintz, began cutting away
the roof of the car to reach them.
Encouraged by cries from the men
inside, the rescuers finally cut away
a sufficient section of the roof to
drag the men out. Russell was hurt
about -the back, while Beckwith escaped
uninjured.

CONFERENCE ON COTTON BILLS.
Vis

&S3
Southerners Discuss the Matter with
1 English Representatives.
New Orleans, Aug. 12.?A confer!
ence of Southern cotton men and
bankers and Charles Haight of NeW' A
York, representing the Liverpool cotton
hills of lading committee, on the
t question of the validations of cotton
. bills of lading was held here to-day.
i St. Louis and several Texas cities &&
L were also represented. Mr. Haight *
, submitted a proposition, .which in
[ brief is to have railroads issue bills
; of lading so that forgeries "will be
. remote contingencies."
According to the plan two copies S
of the bill of lading, signed by the
, authorities of the railroad, are to he '
k certified, one of them to go to the act
'counting department -and the other;4
. to a central bureau to be established y V|*||
in New York, as provided for in theK V
, plan of the New York bankers . ;/V|g|
, against which the Southern bankers vp
i protested at the conference held in ' ' V
New York some time ago. The gen- ><?
tral bureau will be required to make
weekly returns on bills of lading re- |
' ceived to the accounting department
of the railroads. ^
Although a direct statement could .
' not be obtained to-night, it is under- -
stood that tnose representing toe
Southern interest impressed upon Mi*. ^S8|
1 Haight that they would continue to f
oppose any plan which would force
* the cotton interests to guarantee ^
| cotton bills of lading. ^
Sol Wexler, of,New Orleans,
' was chairman of the meeting, would* /S|j8j
[ express no opinion on the propped
tion. He said that a general conferrt ^ '
1 ence of representatives of cotton aid' . ;^
banking interests would probably be
held later. : M

[ Fugitive Cashier Arrested,
I Greensboro, N. C., Aug. 12. ?After'^
1 a chase of a. week extending -across
; three States, Deputy Sheriff W. A.
Crow, of Gainesville, Ga., this after* :
[ noon with the aid ?of local police, ar- -ffijjS

! is chargd with false pretense and vjsgi
who it is alleged, secured sumsKjg^fl
ranging between $50,000?and $75,- l|

turn to Georgia without such and in , ;
i a few minutes after his arrest boprd- '
ed a train bound for Georgia. Bishop
says he has no fears of ill results ^
when he is Drought, face to race witn

It is alleged that Bishop promofc

which he claims to have owned and
upon which he placed a value of :
$160,000. He claims that the funds V-'dS
received from stock sold was in

claimed by the prosecutors that
Bishop represented that these funds
were intended to be used in promot- Wm
ing the company and manufacturing
the drink. The assets on which, ha ;:/|jg|
worked are said to have been less
than $20. " -
