SAW ESCAPED CONVICT.
Negro in Stripes and Shackles Causes
, Excitement at Hunter's Chapel.
Considerable excitement was caused
in the Hunter's Chapel neighborhood
a few days ago, when a negro
dressed in stripes, and wearing shackles
was seen in the community. The
identity of the negro is not known,
and so far as learned there had been
no convict to escape from any of the
/chain gangs in this section. The negro
came to the house of a colored
resident of the community. Only
women and children were, at home
at the time, and they immediately
left post haste. Going to the home
,of some of the white people of the
neighborhood they reported the occurrence
and the white men went to
the house and looked the premises
over, but found no trace of the man.
The convict was seen by others in
the community later on. but subsequent
searches have not been successful.
It is presumed that the man
went to the house in search of food,
and no violence was offered by him.

Murphy had been in declining health

of his death, which, though not wholly
unexpected, came very suddenly.
The funeral services were conducted
by his pastor, the Rev. R..Herbert
Jones, assisted by the Rev. Geo. P.

PAROLE FOR G. J. HIERS.
Bamberg Man Given-Respite to Go to
Hospital for Treatment.
Governor Cooper has granted a
parole for six months to George J.
Hiers, of this county, who is serving
*a sentence of six years on the
county chain gang for the killing of
Charlie Kinsey in the town of Ehrhardt
several years ago. It was represented
to Governor Cooper that
Hiers has been in failing health for
some time, and that the only hope
for him will be treatment in a hospital.
It is said that he is suffering
from kidney trouble* and will be carried
to some hospital for treatment.
Mr. Hiers is a prominent "Bamberg
county njan. The killing of Kinsey
and the subsequent trial of Hiers was
attended by great interest on account
of the prominence of both parties.
Hiers was convicted of manslaughter.
His appeal to the supreme court resulted
in confirmation of the lower
court, and, being given choice between
the State penitentiary and the
county chain gang, he chose the
latter.

LARGE GINNERY BURNED.
Mr. H. H. Kearse Sustained Serious
Loss?Mules and Cotton Burned.
Several days ago the large ginnery
of Mr. H. H. Kearse at Olar was
burned to the ground, entailing an
enormous loss not only to Mr. Kearse,
but to the farmers of the neighborhood.
who were depending on the
establishment to gin their cotton.
The fire occurred in the early morning
hours. The gin was valued at
about $13,000, and Mr. Kearse had
no insurance, it is stated. Steps
have been taken to rebuild at once.
New gin outfits have been ordered,
and Mr. Kearse expects to be ready to
resume operations within the next
three weeks.
Among the losers was Mr. B. V.
Kearse, a large planter of the community.
One of his hands had driven
a wagon loaded with cotton to the
gin, and while awaiting his turn
hitched the team under the gin shed
to another wagon load of cotton, and
then went away. During his absence
the fire occurred, and the men around
the gin not knowing the team was
there the * mules were burned to
death. The bale of cotton on the
wasron was also burned. Mr. W. S.
Creech lost two wagons, both loaded
with cotton, and U. G. Milhouse lost
a wagon loaded with a bale of cotton.
The engines and boilers were somewhat
protected from the flames and
can be repaired, it is stated. All of
the gins and outfit were a complete
loss.
As soon as the place had cooled off,
.Air. Kearse began preparations torebuild.
A cement floor has already
been put down. He owns his own
saw mill, has carpenters, etc., which
will enable him to replace the burned
structure immediately, and thus relieve
the cotton situation in his community.
Many of the farmers are
compelled to store their cotton in the
seed and await the rebuilding of the
gin, or haul their product manv miles
to another ginnery. u
TWO BOLD ROBBERIES.
Residences Entered and Goods Stolen,
Including Fine Gold Watch.
Two very bold burglaries occurred
in Bamberg on Friday, when the
residences of Miss Pearl Counts and
Mr. D. A. Reid were entered in the
day time and some valuable articles
stolen. Both robberies took place
within a short space of time, and both
had the appearance of having been
committed by amateurs.
The burglar entered Miss Counts's
residence about noon, taking a very
valuable gold watch and a small
knife. No other articles have been
missed. Miss Counts was in the
back yard at the time, and it appears
certain that the party was
watching the house for an apportunity
to enter it, and as soon as she had
left the house went in and began pillaging.
The watch stolen was highly
prized. It was solid gold, Waltham
movements, and set with a diamond
in the back. Mrs. George R. Brlggs,
who also resides in the house, heard
the burglar, but thought it was Miss
Counts. The burglar opened Mrs.
Briggs's room door, but passed on unseen.
This was the second time within a
month Mr. Reid's house has been
entered. On the last occasion the
burglar entered the house, with the
assistance of a wheelbarrow, through
the kitchen window. A razor and a
pair of trousers appear to have been
all stolen from Mr. Reid's house. Mr.
Reid has offered a reward for the capture
of the 'guilty party.
CROP CONDITION.
Report Shows Decline of Four Per
Cent, in Cotton and Corn.
t
The bureau of crop estimates, B.
B. Hare, field agent, has just issued a
report on the condition of South Carolina
crops, under date of September
1. The report shows a decline of
four per cent in both the cotton and
the corn crops in this State. The
present condition of the cotton crop
indicates, according to the report, a
production of 1,160,000 bales in
South Carolina. The report also
shows an increase of five per cent, in
the number of fattening hogs in the
State over last year at this time. The
following is the report on cotton and
corn for Bamberg and nearby counties:

WAYLAID HIS RIVAL.
Klliott Green Shoots Mike Smith to
Kill.?Inflicts Serious Injury.
Elliott Green, a young negro, was
arrested Friday by Sheriff Ray and
a party of Bamberg gentlemen, after
a chase of several hours, and lodged
in jail. He shot Mike Smith the previous
night, inflicting a very serious,
if not fatal, wound in the shoulder.
After his arrest, Green told the officers
.all about his attempt to kill
Smith, and it has the ^fcearance of
being one of the most cold-blooded
crimes in the history of the county.
Smith was shot on or near the railroad
track a short distance from the
Southern passenger station here, during
the night. It appears from the
story of Green that he and Smith
have been paying court to the same
damsel, and that there had been bad
feeling between them for some time.
Green says that Smith had been
"picking" on him, and he decided to
end his troubles with his competitor
with a ?hot gun. Going to the home
of another negro the night before the
shooting, he asked for the loan of a
shot gun. He was first offered a shot
gun with a safety attachment, but he
says he returned that gun, saying
that he did not know how to operate
it, and then borrowed a single barrel
gun. Ai'med with this weapon, and
knowing, he says, that Smith would
pass'a certain point on the railroad,
he set his vigil for the abearance of
Smith. After waiting for some time,
sure enough Smith came into view,
with his hands clasped behind his
'back. \
Green called to him and told him
to keep his hands where they were,
that he wras going to put an end to
him, and therewith proceeded to empty
the shot gun into the body of
Smith. He states that he intended to
shoot him through the heart, but that
the load did not enter where intended,
instead penetrating the shoulder.
Very little hope is held out for the
injured negro.
After shooting Smith he went to
the home of another negro, it is said,
with whom he had not been on very
good terms, and called on him to
come out, with the intention of "puttine
him away." But this man re
fused to come out, and thereby probably
saved his life.
Green was captured with the aid
of the county bloodhounds, which
trailed him to the house formerly occupied
by Shady Broughton. The
officers stopped there to inquire if
the negro had been seen in the neighborhood,
and as one of the men went
to the door, Green jumped out and
ran from the house. Chase was given,
and he was caught without difficulty.

CONCERNING PENSIONS.
All Veterans and Widows Must Make
Application to Pension Board.
Capt. J. D. Felder requests The
Herald to again call to the attention
of all Confederate veterans and widows
of veterans who expect to' receive
a pension next year that it is
absolutely necessary for them to appear
before the board and make application
for the pension. Notwithstanding
the fact that the pension
board, of which Mr. Felder is chairman,
gave notice through the papers
that the board would be in session at
the court house last Saturday, only a
handful of the pensioners came to
make application.
Capt. Felder wishes togive positive
notice that unless the pensioners
make application to the board they
cannot receive a pension. This is the
law, and the board has to do as the
law requires, and while none of the
pension board would like to see a
single veteran or widow barred from
receiving a pension to which they may
be justly entitled, the board feels*
that they are doing all that is in their
power to persuade the pensioners to
comply with the requirements, and
if any veteran or widow fails to receive
a pension next year it will be
nobody's fault out tne pensions ?.
The pension board will be in session
again on September 27th, October
11th and October 25th. If you
are now receiving a pension you must
come on one of these days and apply
for the pension next year. If you
have never received a pension and
are entitled to receive one, then
come to see the board about it on one
of these days. The pension board is
composed of Messrs. J. D. Felder, J.
B. Kearse and J. D. Rowell.
