(OTTON ADVANCED DURING PAST WEEK Favorable View of Politicatil Events and UTn satisfactory Weather Caused Ad. Vance.

BETHUNE ESCAVES OHAIR ONCE MORE Negro Six Times Convicted of Murder is Again Given New Trial. Columbia, June 23.--Willie Bethune, the negro whose case has been in the courts of South Carolina, for the past ten years received a new lease on life late this afternoon when the state su preme court, in an opinion by Chief Justice Eugene B. Gary remanded the negro back to the circuit court of Marlboro county to stand his seventhl trial for life. He already has been convicted of the murder of G. B. Mims, a white man of Marlboro county, six times ind has received a half dozen death entences. In each instance there was an appeal to the supreme court, which reversed the judgment of the lower court In every case. Sunday morning, February 21, 1904, the horse and buggy of G. B. Mins became lost on the public highway of Marlboro comty and. were caught by Willie Bethune, who Immediately went "Joy riding" with two of his women friendisj (The 'buggy contained a valise in which among other things was a revolver. This Bethune pocket ed. In the afternoon Mr. Mins, accom panied by a friend, A. J. McFadden, in another buggy, went in search of the Mims' conveyance. When located it was still being driven by Bethune, with his two female companions. Mr. Miis commanded the two women to alight and .ot in the buggy -with Bethune, presumably to arrest him. Bethune then shot him in the head. There is some dispute in the'testimony as to whether Mr. Minms likewise fired at the negro. Bethune wab irsL tried for his life at Manning in June, 1919, was convicted and sentenced to be hanged on June .30, 1909.
