Salt For Fruit Tree Blight. A correspondent in Sundays News and Courier makes a suggestion. He says; The Scriptures admonish us that, "To him that knoweth to do good and doeth it not, to him it is sin," therefore, it seems necessary to communicate to you the shepherd, what may be of great service to many of your large and in creasing flock. Several yeare ago, it is currently reported in this section, a "Mr. Lowry, of Summerville," acci dently discovered that the possibility of having and keeping good orchards in the low country is made certain by the use of salt. On cleaning out his smoke house the dirt was dumped on a large pear tree, which proved to be only one to escape the blight. Since then he has applied two quarts of salt around every tree in his orchard, and the entire lot has not only been kept in perfect health but has yielded a gracious abundance of the finest fruit.

The plaintiffs ask damages in the above amounts, alleging that they were ejected from a Southern train a few weeks ago at King's Mountain when they had intended to get off at Gaff ney, having bought tickets at Spartanburg for the Cherokee town. In some unac countable manner the plantiffs were not informed of the train's arrival at Gaff ney, and as neither had ever been in that section before they did not know when they passed their intended desti nation. Upon learning that they had passed Gaffney they demanded that they be furnished transportation back to that point. This was refused, and the three passengers were ejected from the train, thereby greatly inconven iencing and humilitating the said plain tiffs. ??The Shadow of the Alfacoo."

All Held for Trial In Magistrate's Court On Serious Charges. Monday morning the sheriff and his deputy went to Goldville and placed un der arrest John Cole, Vardie Mims and his wife, Lizzie Mims, and Pressley and Kit Mims, brothers of Vardie. They are charged with assault and battery and interferring with an officer of the law in the discharge of his duty. Sher iff Duckett turned them over to Magis trate Milam of Hunter who held them for trial in the proper bonds. All these defendants are mill' opera tives at Goldville except John Cole who is employed as a farm overseer. The whole trouble seems to have started last Saturday at the Lydia Cot ton Mill, Clinton, when the Mims boys and Vardie Mims' wife are said to have forcibly entered A. C. Cothran's house and assaulted the entire family in a brutal manner, Lizzie Mims using a knife or razor on Cothran's wife, slash ing her up considerably. Warrants for their arrest were sworn out and W. R. Arnold, police officer at Lydia Mill, was deputized by the mag istrate to execute the papers. On Sun day morning Deputy Constable Arnold, accompanied by three or four citizens from the mill, drove down to make the arrests. Vardie Mims was found and arrested without difficulty, and was ieft in the custody of one of the accompa nying citizens while Deputy Constable Arnold proceeded to locate the others called for in the warrant. About this time John Cole and Pressly Mims ap peared on the scene, followed by sev eral others. Without any special cere monies or long drawn out preliminaries, it is said that Pressley, Mims and Cole, rescued Vardie Mims from the custody of the officer at the point of a big pis tol. A pretty hot scrimmage followed this high-hand?d proceeding in which Deputy Constable Arnold was disarmed and pummeled over the head with his own billy. He succeeded in recovering the billy, but his pistol was kept. Under these circumstances Arnold and his men decided to retreat, and it is further stated that as they drove off the Mims party fired several times after them. Handkerchief Bazaar.

Defendant Killed Two Theatrical Men i.i His Own Hotel Last December at Gaffney. Gaffney, Feb. 2C?The grand jury re turned a true bill for murder againt'. George Hasty to-day and this afternoon he was arraigned for trial over the oL ? jection of his counsel. Hasty i in ? dieted for the murder of Milan Den nett and Abbott Davison of the "Nothing But Money" theatrical company. Defendant found a little defect in the tortuous bill of indictment, but the court, It. W. Memminger, a clean cut man with large gray eyes made an or der of amendment. There was a stir and a great deal of rubbering when the sheriff conducted George Hasty to the dock and took the handcuffs off of him. Hasty was well dressed and groomed, indeed, fastid iously. The object of all eyes, he wa \ not in the least frustrated. When his counsel objected to the arraignment, precipitating a little argument, his eyes went from lawyer to lawyer with out wincing and with grave interest in the discussion. The judge overruled the objection to arraignment, and the clerk commanded Hasty to stand up. Mr. H. K. Osborne, of his counsel, stood by him and prompted his response, "Not guilty," etc., which he repeated in low tones. He is quite a handsome young man, chesty and nervy and if ho continues to carry himself with the same gravity, he will impress the jury favorably. The defendant took advantage of the three days which the statutes allow him between arraignment and trial, and the case, therefore is set for trial Thurs day morning. FOUNTAIN INN HAS A FIRE.
