Peoples had become delirious and was trying to fly when Walker signaled across th * way to the police station. When Bendt got to the ton he found . that the only way he could save the two men was by jumping from one scaffold to another, a distance of *! feet, with nothing between him and the earth, 170 feet below. There was an even chance that Bendt would up set the scaffold by tne Jump, hut he took the risk. Down below a great crowd Wad gathered. Without hesitating Bendt jumped.

As the Result of an Altercation at a Dance George and Henry Dunbar and Fletcher Bennett Are Dead and Two Others Are Wounded. Augusta, Ga., Jan. 2.—Three people were killed and two wounded at Rob bins, S. C., in a fight which occurred during a watch party given at the res idence of Jesse Griffin. The participants in the fight were white people and well known in this part of the county. The dead: George Dunbar. Harry Dunbar. Fletcher Bennett. The wounded: Arthur Dunbar, fatally. Mrs. George Dunbar. The fact that the participants in the sensational shooting affray have rela tives and many acquaintances in Au gusta has made it of special interest here, and this has been heightened by bringing to the hospital here the only survivor amon' the combatants. Beyond bad hisky and pistols, the cause oi the tragedy w r as trifling. A young man named Cobb collided in the dance with Arthur Dunbar, and in a short time it occurred again. Dunbar demanded to know if it was intention al. Cobb said no, it was an accident, but soon it occurred a third time, and after angry words Dunbar left the room. Cobb’s friend, Bennett, went to him i and told him to pay no attention to Dunbar as he was drinking. As they were talking several other friends of Cobb's came up ahff hurried him out oi the room, leaving Bennett standing alone. About this time Arthur Dunbar re entered the room, accompanied by his brother and father. They at once be gan an altercation with Bennett and one of them pointed a pistol in his face. Bennett seized it, and in a scuf fle secured the weapon and faced the three. By this time firing began and men and women fled out of doors and windows. George Dunbar, the father, fell dead. The two sons fired on Ben nett and he fell, but not dead. Rais ing himself on his left side he contin ued the fight, killing one brother and mortally wounding Arthur Dunbar. It is said George Kirkland, kinsman of Dunbar, ran in and killed Bennett as he lay on the floor. Mrs. Dunbar, who ran in after her husband, received a slight wound, but was saved by her belt and corset stay, which stopped the bullet. Arthur Dunbar, who was brought to Augusta hospital, was shot in the right shoulder, in the neck and in the abdo men. The last wound is believed to be mortal, though surgeons operated on him and are making an effort to sa.e his life. The Dunbars are cousins of Y» f . M. Dunbar, formerly postmaster of Au gusta. All are well known in this part of the country. O. M. CARTER CASE AGAIN.
