ATTEMPTED TRAGEDI)
NEAR NINETY-SIX
SON ATTEMPTS TO MURDER
FATHER AND STEP-MOTHER.
Would-be Murderer Escapes But Every
Effort to Capture Hitt is Being
Made by Authorities.
A special from Greenwood to the
Spartanburg Herald of Tuesday, says;
“Butler Pinson, known as ‘Bud,’
trade a dastardly attempt to murder
his father and step-mother, Mr. and
Mrs. B. P. Pinson, as they lay asleep
early Tuesday morning, near Ninety-
Six. by firing both barrels of a gun at
them, and when only about eight feet
away from them. That Mr. and Mrs.
Pinson are living to tell how it hap-
pc-ned is a miracle, for the load of
shot entered the head of the bed only
a few inches above their heads and
some shot were found in the pillows.
“Mr. B. P. Pinson lives about a mile
and a half southeast of Saluda, and
within four hundred yards of Siloam
church, and is a well-to-do farmer.
‘Bud’ hears a pretty bad reputation,
living the greater part of the time
away from home.
Possible Motive.
"As to the motive of young Pinson
some have suggested robbery, but
Mr. Pinson seems to think that the
boy, knowing that no one knew he
was in this part of the county, that he
would murder both he and Mrs. Pin
son and then he would share the es
tate with his brother, Richard, he
being hard pressed for funds. Mr.
Pinson had only lately refused to
grant his request for funds. Young
Pinson made good his escape, but
Sheriff McMillan is making every ef
fort to catch him.
“The following is a description of
Pinson:
“ ‘Arrest Butler Pinson, charge, at
tempt to murder. Color, white, age
twenty-six years; height 5 feet, 7
inches; weight l(]0 pounds. Said to
have missing front tooth, brown eyes
and dark hair, full face and clean
shaven. Use caution.’ ”
BAD GANG ROUNDED UP-
Good Work Done by Salisbury
police.
Salisbury, April 21.—Chief Julian
and Captain of Police Cauble got in a
fine piece of work last night when
they arrested a quartette of negroes
who have been robbing stores and
residences in Salisbury during the.
past month.
Just how many --obbeiies they have
committed they would scarcely be
able to say themselves, so numerom
have they been. Nearly every mor
ning for the past two weeks reports
have come to the officers of places of
business and residences being enter* d
during the night, but despite the
greatest vigilance they could get no
clue to the robbers. Saturday night
the tailoring establishment of the T.
A. Walker Company wa? entered and
several garments taken. Yesterday
morning the officers learned that John
White, a young negro, had been seen
wearing one of the missing garments.
Later in the day he was arrested, but
had changed clothes and stoutly de
nied his guilt. His home was search
ed and the stolen clothes recovered.
White then confessed and implicated
Ivy Brawley and Jake Poe, two
other negroes. They were arrested
last night and when confronted by
Wthite broke-down and admitted their
guilt. Poe had a pistol on his person
when taken. The arrest of this trio
was followed by a visit to the home
of Owen Walker, another negro, who
was associated with the prisoners in
their numerous operations. Walton
was in bed when Chief Julian entered
the house and before he arose to dress
admitted his guilt and produced a
quantity of tobacco he stole from the
Robertson Grocery Company, after
effecting an entrance through a rear
window Friday night. This morning
the defendants were sent no to court.
The officers feel certain they have
all of the gang that have been operat
ing here.

CHAMBER COMMERCE FOR UNION.
Business Men Signify Their intention
to Become Members.
Union, April 21.—At a meeting of
the business men of Union last night
at the court house it was definitely
dtcided to organize a chamber of com
merce. It was announced as the re
sult of a canvass of the committe ap
pointed at a previous meeting over
80 business men hnd agreed to join
the organization and pay a monthly
membership fee of $1.
The meeting was presided over by
the chairman, Mr. Emslie Nicholson,
and the gathering was quite a repre
sentative one, although not as large
ly attended as would have been the
case had the revival services at the
First Baptist church not been in pro
gress.
Capt. J. T. Douglass, chairman of
the committee appointed to frame a
constitution and by-laws, presented its
report and after considerable discus
sion of what the membership fee or
rather he initiation fee should be and
whether there should be any such fee,
it was finally decided to adopt the
constitution as a whole and leave this
other matter next time for further
consideration.
There will be another meeting next
Monday night in the court house,
when "it is expected that the officers
will be elected and the work of the
organization fully .outlined.
Injunction Made permanent.
Columb'a. April 21.—The supreme
court has g-ranted petitioner Attor
ney General Lyon injunction in the
cases brought against the Charleston
nd Argyle Hotels, German Bowling
Clubs and other Charleston concerns
alleged to have been nuisances be
cause of alcoholic liquors dispensed.
A temporary injunction was granted
some time ago and the decision of
the court sustains this, thus effectual-
v forbidding the sale of liquor.
The Better Question.
Edtvard Hagaman Hall, the secretary
of the American Science and Historic
Preservation society, was discussing in
New York his project toward the trans
port of Poe’s cottage to Poe park. Mr.
Hall, a historian of great ability, has
a happy knack of pointing his remarks
with appropriate anecdotes, and, dis
cussing Poe, he said:
“Fame comes at last—comes very,
, - ery late—to this great poet, this mas
ter of the short story. And during the
long years Poe was forgotten his
wraith must have felt like the ancient
sage of whom Plautus—was It Plautus
—tells.
“During this sage’s life statues were
erected to many philosophers and
rhetoricians less noted and less learned
than himself. A traveler, passing
through the kingdom, asked him why
It was. The sage replied:
“ ‘I prefer to have It asked why 1
have no statue rather than why I had
one.’ ”
CURES
RHEUMATISM
*
Every case of Rheumatism has its origiu and its development in the
blood, it is not a disease which is contracted like a cold, but it is in the
blood and system before a pain is felt, and the changes in the weather or
any physical irregularities, such as a spell of indigestion, bowel disturbance,
etc., are merely the exciting causes producing the pains and aches, which
are the natural symptoms of the disease. Rheumatism is causal by an
excess of uric acid and other corrosive, irritating poisons in the blood, which
are carried through the circulation to every part of the svstem. Every
muscle, nerve, membrane, tissue and joint becomes saturated with these
acrid, irritating impurities, or coated with fine, insoluble caustic matter,
and the sharp, piercing pains or the dull, constant aches are felt with every
physical movement. When the blood is filled with uric acid poison, perma
nent relief cannot be expected from liniments, plasters, or other external
treatment. Such measures give temporary relief, but in order to conquer
Rheumatism and bring about a
complete cure, the uric acid and
other inflammatory matter must be
expelled, and this cannot be done
with external treatment. S. S. S.
cures Rheumatism because it is a
perfect and entirely vegetable blood
purifier. It goes down into the
circulation, neutralizes the acids,
and dissolves the irritating depos
its which are pressing on the sensi
tive nerves and tissues and produc
ing pain, enriches the weak, sour
blood, and removes every atom of
impurity from the circulation. So
instead of being a weak, sour
stream, distributing uric acid to the
different parts of the system, the
blood is strong and healthy and
therefore able to supply every mus-
cle, nerve, bone and tissue with nourishment and strength. Then the inflam
mation and swelling subside, the pains and aches cease, and not only is
Rheumatism permanently cured, but under the fine tonic effects of S. S. S.
the entire general health is benefitted and built up. In all forms of Rheuma
tism, whether .acute or chronic, S. S. S. will be found a safe and reliable treat
ment. Special book on Rheumatism and any medical advice vou desire will
be furnished Lee. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA.
Sometime ago, I had Rheumatism and had to
quit work. The pain in my back and between
my shoulders was so interna I could not rest or
sleep. I tried everything, but nothing did m* my
good till I heard of and took S. S. S. This med
icine cured me sound and well. It purified my
blood and made me feel like a new mac.
CONRAD LOHR,
Anderson, Ind. 122 E. 19th St
I was severely troubled with Rheumatism I
had it in my knees, legs and ankles, and any one
who has ever had Rheumatism knows how excru
ciating the pain is and how it interferes with one
at work. I was truly in bad shape—having been
bothered with it for ten years, off and on. A
local physician advised me to use S. S. S. I did
so. After taking two bottles I noticed the sore
ness and pain were greatly reduced. I continued
the medicine and was thoroughly cured; all pa n,
soreness and inflammation gone. I recommend
S. S. S. to all Rheumatic sufferers.

DAYS OF DIZZINESS-
Come to Hundreds of Gaffney people.
There are days of dizziness;
Spells of headache, sideache, back
ache;
Sometimes rheumatic pains;
Often urinary disorders.
All tell you plainly the kidneys are
sick.
Doan’s Kidney Pills cure all kindney
ills.
Here is proof in Gaffney.
Jessie Pinson. Main street, Gaffney,
S. C., says; “About ten years ago I
wa s suddenly attacked by a dull ach
ing through the region of my kidneys.
I consulted a physician but became
no better under his treatment. I then
went to another who told me that I
had kidney trouble but he was also
unable to help me. I suffered thus
for eight years and grew so weak and
run down that I was almost a physi
cal wreck. The pains in my back
were almost unbearable and it was
quite impossible for me to do my
work without suffering. The kidney
secretions were very unnatural in ap
pearance and during passages caus
ed me intense pains. I recently heard
of Doan’s Kidney Pills and believing
that they might help me, procured a
box at a drug store. Their use
brought me such relief that I pur
chased another supply and when I
had taken this, I was cured. I have
had no similar trouble since and can
not give Doan’s Kidney Pills too
much praise.’’
