The fBoneyard
7 Business at the boneyard on Mlonday
was brisk all day. T1he traders of this
famous place could be seen coming in
early with an extra supply of horse and
mule flesh to be put On the market, and
the market opened ealy and wvas brisk
all day. A horse could be purchased
on Mionday any where from 85 up. Sales
were rather light but the number of
trades and exch-mges were numerous,
and the market in this line closed
steady and strong. The boys all seemed
happy, and we have no doubt had a
pleasant and happy day wvhether they
made anything or not. We will be
willing to guarantee they l(ost nothing.

SHOCKING RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
eath of Mr. John G. Pitts Last Monda
on the C. & G. R. R., Near Newberry.
Mr. John Pitts is dead.
Swift as with an arrow did the huri
ng shaft hurl the old man into ete
ity. He never quivered. His deat
as instantaneous and therefore p:ir
.55.
The following are the particuhtrs
ie shocking accident which occurre
n Monday morning at Boyd's, belo
ie Kilgore Hill, about twenty nir
tes past eight o'clock.
Mr. William Pitts. section-mastE
etween Helena and Prosperity, wit
horn his father worked, started hi
'ank with the force of hands ver
rutionsly through the prevailing for
opping at times to be assured of hi
Lfety. He stopped five tines. H
d not know that a special freigli
ain was running westward. He i
ie of the most industrious and relii
e section-masters on the road, as we
the most cautious, hence is alway
the alert.
Just before he stopped for the las
me he saw what he sunposed was
)dy of men. It was saleday and h
id passed a number of men on thei
ay to the village. The distance wa
)out 600 yards, and to his great sui
rise in a moment more he found tha
was an engine rapidly approachin
trough the mist without head-ligh
either did it blow brakes on hin
r. Pitts affirms, which would hav
tarded the engine one minute, a
ast-time enough to have saved hi
tr and by this his father's life.
The crew of the crank were in thei
rirt sleeves. How was it that the
ere not seen making desperate effort
save themselves? They saw th
t-rushing train. Where was the heat
ht that dangerous morning and wh
as the whistle not blown? Extra pr(
utions should have been taken b
e railroad authorities on a mornin
.e that.
Somebody has blundered to the sacr
e of a human life,and filled a widowe
art with grief.
As soon as the section-master sai
e engine he began to move the ca
om the track, and had succeeded wit
is end, but tha negro at the other sid
ith deceased seemed completely de
oralized and fled, his wheel hangin
1 the track. The old man had freed h
de from the rail. At this junctur
[r. Pitts called to his father and thi
ands to save themselves, while h
Lade an effort to remove the end <
ie car, but the engine was nearly upo
im and he saved himself by leanin
tckward to escape its projections.
The end of tbe cow-catcher turne
ie crank end for end from the ba'
it the force of the movement hurle
e heavy iron tools upon the old ma
ho wras about twelve feet off upo
Le bank. The shock must have bee
rrific. The lower limbs of the di
'ased were broken and there were dec
ishes in the head.
The remains were brought by tr
aterial train to Newberrv. After tI
qluest at Mr. J. S. Russell's residene
ie body was placed in a casket an
ken to Helena.
Mr. John Pitts was an honorable o1
tizen. True and loyal to all his trust
e was as simple and guileless in h
abits as a child. "He owed no ma
ate. Eating the bread of honest to
a was therewith content." He wz
member of the Methodist Churel
id was buried at Rosemont (emneter
uesday afternoon in the presence of
umber of relatives and friends wh
ill miss the kind and quiet old ma
onm his accustomed place.

The Newberry Hotel in New Hands.
It will interest those of the traveling
public-and everybody is likely to be
included in that class at times-who
have occasion to stop in the wide awake
and pleasant town of Newherry, to
learn that the Newberry Hotel is now
in new hands. M1r. J. A. Blanton, who
has made so excellent a reputation as
landlord of the Blanton House at Cam
den, has now leased the Newberry
Hotel and will henceforward give the
establishment the advantage of his
personal manageneit, and it cannot
be doubted will succeed, for he has the
knack of making his guests feel at
home, providing them with clean and
tidy roois, ellicient service and as
good proviiler as any one could desire.
Mrs. Blariton, his estimable helpmeet,
is by no means a "silent partner'' in
tile firm, and her knowledge of hous( -
wifery and kinrd aind hospitab!e ways
n ill add iuchi to the sir -ngth of tl.e
new management.--!tegIster, 4t..

One great argument in favor of Dr.

physicians never hesitate to use it in
