the Chemical,Works, N. E. 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

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.

I concentrated on one special line of
business to get best results, and in
dur special line, if we make a success
for ourselves, we make a success
for our patrons, and by keeping
in close toucb with the general

in uosition to get you as much if not
I mora money for your tobacco thau
any firm in the business.
It is an undisputed fact that Neal
A Dixon seli more tobacco for more
money than any warehouse firm in
Mullins, the leading tobacco market
in South Carolina *
^ We sold between five and six mil~
lion pounds of tobacco last season
in our three warehouses in South
Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia,
which is more tobacco than
any two firms in South Carolina
sold.

Mp TiVlit.nr T saw an nrt.in.1p last (

SS Owens and in that article he 1
rakes me over the coals because for- '
sooth I had the temerity to write 1
the news from this place to your '
paper without first consulting h'.m 1
and saw proper to use a non de 1
plume, all of which I submit 1 was <
clearly within my right. 1
He said I attended at the public
well while Mr Cox was boring it
What if I did? Is there auy thing
wrong in that? Others did the
same thin# and nothing has been
said about them. He infers that
because I take an interest in all J
public works that may be going on
that I am smart, I think ho is a *
little off on this. I together with
all other good citizens should take i
a lively interest in all improvements, '
I guess I know what he is striking
at. Some Oue from Murrells Inlet 1
said Mr O had a weather machine
j and could cause it to rain when he }
needed it, and it had got out of fix I
and cause so much dry weather and i
Mr Owens accused me of starting
the report at Myrtle Beach. s
I want to call Mr Owens' attention
to the fact that I do not call
on him for any assistance and would
be glad if he would not worry his 1
mind about mo and my business, i

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.
