In the course of his speech at Abbeville
last Tuesday Governor Blease
ville last week Gov. Blease read a
number of reports from reputable
ptrysicians, among whom was Dr. J as.
Mcintosh, that Richey (the Abbeville 1
rapist paroled by the Governor) was a
a paralytic, and his condition would 1
improve if released from confinement. <
Last Thursday The Record printed 1
a written statement furnished by Dr.
Mi^jjjtosh that "it is not true that this .<
report of the said committe signed by i
Dr. Knowlton and myself in any way i
recommended a pardon or parole of I
the said R. A. Richey, the fact being j
that both Dr. Knowlton and I fully <
agreed that his paralysis was feignthe
Greenville meeting last (
Saturday Mr. J. W. Norwood under- !
took to question the governor in the 1
course of his speech about this Rich- *
ey case and this came near causing a '
r* i ? % '
iiigm, according to tin- following re- ]
port printed last Sunday: 1
Jg^hen the governor was speaking
J. W. Norwood, president of the Nor- '
wood National bank, said to ho tVr4 :
second wealthiest hank in the State, (
asked the chief executive:
"How about I>r. Mcintosh?"
The governor's answer was: "When ;
I to Columbia I expect to request 1
I)? Mcintosh to take a seat on r.iio 1
stand. I'll answer that question then '
and not behind his back as a cona.d
like you.
V Calling the chief executive a
['damned liar," Mr. Norwood swept
aside the policemen standing beside
the/little swinging gates to the inclo&Vvl
stand and rushed toward the
governor, lighting his way against ,
other policemen and State detectives
who sprang betwen. It was with
difficulty that the infuriated man was
forced backward down the ten-foot
steps, it requiring the combined >
etfHSts of half a dozen stalwart men
to keep him from breaking through ^
and getting to the gown.or, who remained
standing in the far corner of
the stand where he \sa, wiien he
made the statement.
From all sides the audience closed !
jqMand Mr. Norwood was ])ressed
hack in a struggling mas:? equally do- (
termined to get into the melee. Nobody
was badly hurt, though many of ,
those in the mixup were struck with j
y lists about the head and breast. Mr.
B Norwood had blows directed at him .
from all sides. (
I Aov. lilcase spoke to a large crowd
of mill operatives at the Wood side 1

I, The major portion of the govern- *
B or's followers took the governor at (
mkjjpjs word today and treked away when
B jkie governor had finished, the speak- 5
M er naving but little to say after Mr.

B stand, but the meeting was not over, j
B Not only did Messrs. Jennings and \

Small Bur Strongly Resembling the
Boll NVeavil is Found in Cotton
Crop of J. W. Sasser Near Bayboro,?An
Investigation is Being
Made.
Mr. J. R. Bowles while at Bayboro
ast Friday found what looks very
nuch like a Texas boll weavil, The
nsect was in a jar, together with a
:otton bloom, upon which it was feedng,
when delivered to him by J. W.
Sasser of Bayboro. Mr. Sasser found
t in his crop feeding inside of the
dooms. It was a small black bug
ind as to size and apparent habits,
lolor and the like, it was pronounced
;o be either a boll weavil or a first
. ousin to him.
The insect was brought here for
;he purpose of being sent olf to Clemson
College. Several gentlemen who
ooked at it stated that in their opinion
it was a real boll weavil. Among
hose giving this as their opinion were
3apt. J. it. Bowles and Mr. J. W. Tayor.
Later the insect was delivered to
Prof. M. W. Wall, manager of the
farm demonstration work. He had
several specimens of the real boll
A'oavil here and upon comparing them
together he stated that the two injects
were apparently different spe ies.
On Monday Mr. Wall left here
for Hayboro to make a closer investigation.
Later Prof. M. W. Wall went to
the place and made a careful examination.
Me states that the insect is
similiar to the weavil, but is not the
same, and that while it may injure
the cotton to some extent, it is not
dangerous like the other. He is now
sending off specimens of the bug to
Clemson College and as soon as the
experts determine the name it will be
published.
SHOT ANI) KILEI) NEGRO,
IN CITY OF GAFFNEY,
Harold Sparks, a Young White Man,
Shot and Killed Mose Petty.
Gaffney, S. C., July 18.?With dozens
of hurrying pedestrians, composng
the usual Saturday evening
. rowd, as spectators, Harold Sparks,
Jt well known young white man of
Cherokee county, shot and instantly
silled it negro named.Moso Morehead,
ilia^. Mo so Petty, on one of Gaffney's
irincipal thoroughfares tonight. The
shooting took place about 8 o'clock
and no shots were fired until after
the negro had already out the white
man across the left shoulder, inflicting
a number of painful wounds.
It is said that the dispute arose
aver the fact that the negro would
not drive his wagon out of the way to
let the white man pass, and when
the two met later in the evening the
Argument was renewed. Heated
words were heard and then the negro
is said to have seized Mr. Sparks
and dragged him from the door of a
store, inflicting the cuts with a large
knife. Sparks then opened fire with
his pistol and three bullets took effect
in the negro's breast, around the
heart.
NOT WISE TO TAKE CALOMEL.
Dodson's Liver Tone is just as sure
in results and always safe, pleasant;
in taste and has no bad after effects.
\s a remedy for torpid liver calomel ;
las more than met its match in Dodson's
Liver Tone. This medicine does
lot roughly force the liver on to perform
its work. It acts gently but
surely.
Calomel depends for its power up111
exciting the liver to do more work,
ind often the liver is too weak to
stand such treatment, and after taking
calomel you are as a result some- ,
times worse off than before.
Dodson's Liver Tone cannot cause
my of the dangerous effects that
. ri - e |?
>iten ioiiow the use of calomel. It
is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
the taste and is suitable for children
and grown people.
(let a large bottle for fifty cents at
Conway Drug Co under the guarantee
that if it doesn't satisfy you that it
perfectly takes the place of calomel
you will be given your money back
with a smile right at the store where
you bought Dodson's Liver Tone.
