Harvey Went to Spartanburg Mon day and Raised a Rough House to His Undoing. taki* tin* following account of the trade death of "Lit” Harvey from the Spartanburg Journal: In a frr for all fight at the home of Jessie Wooten Woodward on the cerner of Choice and Kzoll streets, Mathan Littejohn Matvey, aged about 20 years, of Gaffney. was shot j through the 1 ''art and lulled on Mon dav night about " o'clock. The shot was fired by 'Jesse Wo den .Woodward. At the crack of the tuslol Harvey fell into the arms of his companion. J. M.

Jessie Woodwork left the hous< al ter firing the fatal shot and went to the home of her brother at Clifton, where she was arrested about 11 o’clock Monday night and brought back to Spartanburg md committed tr jail. She admitted the shooting. She said she 1 ft the iiottsc for th I ’">rpose of notifying th< podee. hut called a hack and drov out to the home of her brother. The police and sheriff were noti- fied shortly after tin tragedy and Sheriff Nicho ls and ills deputies and a souad of police officers hurried to the scene of the killing. Guards were placed at all doors and windows and a police officer stood guard over thf' dead body of Harvey until Coro lie- Turner arrived. The bodv lay on the floor of the front proch, the head of the deceased towards the door. In the house were three wo men. Rebecca Wooten.

When Coroner Turner arrived he empaneled a jury and after the jury bad viewed the body, the holding of inquest was postpon 'd until Tues av morning. The body was order removed to Floyd’s undertaking ontahlishment. where it was prepar ed for burial. The body was ship ped to Gaffney for interment. The inquest was held at Floyd’s undertaking room. Only four wit nesses were examined. Rebecca Woot en, Dora Wlooten. Fannie McCall. J. Ml Stilton and Dr. A. D. Cudd, who performed the postmortem. The Dhvucian stated that the ball oene- trafjd the apex of the heart causing instant death. J. M. Sutton, of Gaffney, who ac companied Harvey to the house in Question, stated that thev went there sbdrtlv before 7 o’cock. The women revised to admit them and Harvey tried to enter in spite of the nrotest ot Jessie Woodward and a fight re sulted. The other women in the house came to the door and took no n«rt In the mix-up. Suddenly a shot was fired and Harvey fell in his arms having been shot dead. Rebecca Wooten. Dora Wooten and Fannie McCall told of Harvey trying to enter the house over the protest of Jessie Wloodward and a ftght re.m’ted. The/ went to the door and there was a general tussle to keen him from entering. Jessie Woodward went into her room and got a nistol and fired. None of tne witnesses did not seem to know whether the shot was fired from a w^dow or through the open door. The lury after hearing th - evidence returned a verdict that Harvy came to his death from a sun shot wound inflicted by Jessie Woodward. Harvey was engaged In running a restaurant in Gaffney. Hs formerly lived at Pacolet in this county and w*b well known in Spartanburg. About six we ks ago, Co'umihus McCall, a brother in law of Jessie Woodward, was stabbed to death n«ar the seen 1 ' of Monday • night’s tragedy.

Wilkins. John H. Wi kins. J. G. Tol- leson and W. J. Moorehead. An Enthusiastic Audience Greeted Her Tuesday Night. Th** piano recital given at Lirne- stone College on Tuesday night by Miss Angele Andrews, was a- affair ' great interest to musicians and i he audience wag very enthusiastic and appreciative. The first number on the program was a three nart invention bv Bach, and was played with clearness and precision, showing that Miss An drews is capable of playing the work ef the greatest of the classio• ,, com posers. Following the Bach compo- <-<tion came the first movement of Beethoven’s F major sonata. This is a difficult work to internr°t. but was rendered in a manner both ar- <:.-♦>> nnd correct. After the sonata Miss Andrew's played one of Men delssohn’s songs without w r ords. v'hlch was fo’lowed bv t"'o of Cho "in’s mazurkas. This completed the first half of the pr<'~ r am. and as Miss Andrews left th . stage the an dienc>-» showed its apm- "int'on most enthusiastically bv applauding hearli- 1. and Miss Andrews wa<-- oblig d retnr’> for an pnr->re. olaving Mac ’JowoTs beautiful little sketch known ns “To <a Wild Ro«o.” B tween the halves of the recital Mis< Higley sang Puir old folk songs, and w"; urged by the applause of audienc** to repeat th 1n*d one. All four were • ung in an artist man nor The second half of Hi program n ned with one of Grieg’s most j ohnrnct eristic writings, “On the Mountains.” Too much cannot be said In prais ■ of Miss Andrews' in terpretation of Grieg. This composer seems to anneal to the into! 'Ct of this voting pianist more than does •>nv other writer of music, and tho audience was quick to notice the deco understanding with which Gri g’s works were ntaved. It was in the Grieg pieces that Miss An drews was at her best. Tin* great Q st success of the entire programme was in the niece that followed the one last mentioned. It was “To Spring.” also by Grieg, and appeal ed to the audience with noticeable effect. Tim Norwegian Bridal Pro cession was also received with ea thusiasm. as indeed it deserved to he. Mis Andrews would do wed to devote a large nart of her musical studv to th« work of this great Nor weialan writer, for then* Is no doubt that her interpretation of hi* work is far ahead of her oth r n’avlng. a*' * that is saving much. The final number on the programme was the “Polka de Concert” bv BartMt. a ’dece that mad** a fitting ending, with its great brilMancv and admir able execution. We hone to hear Miss Andrews in many other recitals, and musicians will do well to hear her at every opportunity. A NEWSY LETTER FROM WILKINSV HE. MOVEMENTS OF THE PEOPLE OF LOWER CHEROKEE.

March The city of Columbia has extended an invitation 1 to the United Confederate veterans, to hold their reunion there in May next. It is quite probable that Gen. Thomas W. Corwile, commander in chief, will accept the invitation in behalf of the veterans. Col. Samuel Jefferies has quite a fund of reminiscences that no doubt would be entertaining to our Ledger j readers. Among then' one in which the late Rev. J. G. KendHck (com monly known as “Uncle .Tackey”) in speaking on the subject of mirae'es said: “We often take speedal provi- d nces for miracles when such is not th" ca^e. Moses in 'ending the children of Israel out. *.?

It would, however, have been a miracle for on** of the Egyptians to have es caned.” In speaking of Mr. Kendrick Mr. Jefferies s.aid: “He was an honest man for I have tried him in the re finer’s fire and washed him with the fuller’s soap and there was not a blemish about him.” The railroad surveyors struck camu last week and have gone to Kentucky where we understand they wi i be engaged for the next six weeks or two months, when thev will return and finish their work in this section.

He has mad" a full hand at the mill and 'in since they began onerations last fall. He is not afraid of work wheth er he likes it or not. We notice the railroad survey runs right along the niece of mecadam road hist this side of Lawn and if U'" road is graded It will necessarily destroy that piece of splendid work which has been such a heln to us fn muddv weather.

EVENTS IN GAFFNEY AND CHER OKEE. Emile Warth Disappears. The following is a clipping from the Cleveland Star of March 5th: “The relatives and friends of Mr. Emile Warth, agent of the Southern railway at this point, are distressed and greatly disturbed : t the d'lm and mysterious disappearance of the young agent. He has aeon ;■ sent from his office since Uonda\ of last week, and as yet no trace of him can be ocated.

C.. and, imot sed all who came in contact vjt , him bv his eiiiet and gentleman!, deportment. The on’y solution thus far advanced of his disannearance is. that he be came mentally unbalanced bv over work. It is said tha for a week pre ceding his disannernnee he worked f"” into each night, and the nlausihl'' theorv is advanced that his mind gave wav tinder the strain of over "•ork. As an evidence of his mental condition it is said he told several tho day before his dianper'»nce that 'p* had entered suit for $5 000 dam ages against Mayor Sutt.’e for fining him $5 for blockin'’' the nubile ct"oe<q with cars His family are w r el| known in Columbia and held in h‘ h esteem, and this unaccountable disannearance is indeed distressing to them.” Recent Happenings in »nd Around th* City and Other Events Gather ed by the Locat New« Editor.
