Last week ono of the flat cars on the dummy line, not being in use, was left standing under the company’s shed In rear of the laundry. It was very soon spied by some prying youngsters, who are always on the lookout for something In the devilment line, and hauled out for a ride down the grade which begins almost at the shed. The fun was so great that other young sters, both white and colored, soon took part in it, and for several days the flat car was kept busy. Friday afternoon, however, a damper was cast over the exhilarated spirits of the crowd and the fun broken up, when one of the number, a colored boy named Pinckney Jefferies, was run over by the car and his left leg mashed to a pulp from above the knee to the foot. There was quite a scatterment of the young fellow’s comrades in mis chief, and he was left where he had fallen till others, who had witnessed the accident, picked him up and car ried him to a nearby house, where he was made as comfortable as his con dition would admit till medical aid could be given. Drs. Brown and Al len soon arrived, and after a careful examination of the injured limb It was deemed necessary to amputate It. This was done Friday night by the physicians mentioned, who were as sisted by Dr. Steedly. The operation was successfully performed, the leg being taken off just above the knee, and the boy is doing as well as could be expected, though it Is too early as yet to predict with any certainty as to the ultimate recovery of the boy. The police arrested as many of the boys as they could locate, who had been playing with the car, and brought them before Mayor Gaffney Saturday morning. The mayor gave them a talk and a warning, and then dismissed them without further punishment. Death of Capt. Bell’s Mother. Capt. J. B. Bell was called to his old home in Yorkville last week on a sad mission, that of the death of his aged mother, which occurred on Tuesday night. The following account of her death is from the Yorkville Enquirer of the 10th inst.: “Mrs. Martha J. Bell, widow of the late Thomas J. Bell, Esq., died at her home in Yorkville last Tuesday night, after a brief Illness of pneumonia, su perinduced by grip. Mrs. Bell was a native of York county and was a daughter of the late Sheriff J. M. Brian. The seventy-third annviersary of her birth occurs today. She spent the greater portion of her life In Yorkville and the immediate vi cinity, had a wide circle of ac quaintances and was held In high es teem by all who knew her. She leaves five sons and one daughter, as follows: Messrs. E. F. Bell, J. B. Bell, D. W. Bell, W. E. Bell, T. J. Bell, Mrs. J. M. Brian. The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon, the services be- ng conducted by Rev. Dr. W. G. Nev ille. The pall bearers were as follows: Messrs. James B., Donom W., and Thomas J. Bell, Rufus E. Knox, J. M. Brian and D. M. Hall, sons and close relatives. L. R. Williams, Josepr F. Wallace, A. Cody, E. A. Crawford, W. J Gordon and T. M. Dobson, friends of her late husband, acted as honorary pall bearers All of the children were present except Messrs. E. F. and W. E. Bell, they finding it impossible to reach Yorkville in time from the places at which they received the sad news.” Capt. Bell has the sympathy of all Gaffney in his great loss. The R. S.

Robbs died at her home near Grassy Pond Saturday night about 8 o’clock, and wag burled yes terday morning in the Robbs’ grave yard. Heart disease was evidently the cause of her death, as she was 111 only a few minutes, and had been in good health, apparently, up to the time of her last sickness. Mrs. Robbs was about thirty-one years of age, and she leaves a husband and eight children, one a young baby, to mourn for her. To them The Led ger tenders its heartiest sympathy.
