Horn was 'Struck by the Logging Train on the r Conway Coast and Western R. R. and Received Serious if not Fatal Internal Injuries N. E. Horn, of Hammond, S. C., was struck by the logging train on I I the Conway, Coast & Western of its out-going trip, last Thursday morning, and was knocked from the track, sustaining v<jry painful, and perhaps serious bodily injuries. The accident happened on the railroad j track near the chemical works of Cromwell?Walker Co. The logging train was backing along the track W- as usual, and Mr Horn was walking by the side of the track. The machinery in the chemical plant was running and making some racket which jt is supposed prevented the man from noticing the approach of the train; Tt is stated that he stepped in on the side of the track just ahead ol the moving train and tfce .! ?*? hio?r ho roppivp.fl knock ii ' M IvO l/I Vlily VJWff m v ? . ed him from the track and thug per' baps prevented the wheels from passing over his body and causing more serious injury or maybe his death. He was brought over hurriedly to the ofli ;e of Dr J S Dusenbury where his wounds were attended to, and later sent to his home. As his injuries were likely to be iojternal, having received the force of the blow in the bick, it could not be stated at that time / whether his injuries would prove | ^ fatal. Tobacco Growers.

CHARGED WmTDISTILLING After Being Acquitted on One Charge of Violating the Internal Revenue Laws, Another Warrant was Sworn Out Against Him and Fie Flees to South Carolina and was Located at Burcol Where lie was Arrested. Dpputy United States Marshal J. C Bruton. who had called in H N. Sessions, as a guard to assist him, arrested J. W. Eilis at Burcol on last Monday, and lodged him in jail here, under a warrant sent tere by ihe United States authorities in Berkely county, N, C., charging the stilling and selling of liquors. He was placed in the Horry county jail temporarily, as the authorities will no doubt have him transported to Wilmington: where he will be alowed to make bond, or have to regain in jail to await his trial. The authorities, it seems, had trouble in locating Ellis. He was tried in Berkely county, N. C., some >imc last year for selling, and op ,his charge was acquitted. He went jack homo, and it is alleged went jick into the business of distilling md selling liquors, and another warrant was sworn out. He ran rom this second warrant and ur'ived at Burcol last Fall, rented a arm for 1911 and when arrested he .vas engaged in raising a crop at hat place. The authorities finally jent the warrant to Deputy Marshal Bruton, without any descripiion of the man. A negro was looted at Little River by the same lame, but Ellis, who is a white man, vas finally located and identified at iurcol with the results as above stated. Deputy Marshal Bruton is again >n duty, having recovered from an llness which confined him to his tome for many weeks in the early )art of the vear. He will take Eiis ever to Wilmington should the ligher authorities at Charleston >rder thir to be done. IN MEMORIAM.
