THE DEMOCRACY WINS.
THE TILLMAN TICKET ELECTED BY
AT LEAST 35.000 3AJORITY-1
Six Democratic Congressmen Certainly
Elected-Some Doubt as to Effiott.
Democrat-A Quiet Election
and Light Vote.
The election is over. The regular
Democratic ticket is successful. The
majority we trust is large enough to
teach those who would bolt their party
nominations that no such action will
be iudorsed by the white men and
Democrats of this State. And on the
other hand we trust it is small enough
to impress upon the minds of those
who are successful, that the minority
should be treated with proper regard
and that it has rights that should be
respected. The Democratic party in
South Carolina has been given a severe
test and put through a terrible ordeal
this year. It will not stand many
more such strains. But the regular
ticket is successful and for this we are
truely thankful. We voted the party
ticket and did all in our power after
its nomination for its success. From
our point of view we concieved this to
be our duty, and we feel that we have
only discharged our simple duty.
Others saw diferently and did other
wise. We have no quarrel with them.
We want now to see a reunited party,
all working harmoniously together for
the common good. Let 'il good men
apply themselves diligently to accom
push this result.
We give as full returns as we could
obtain yesterday of the result in this
State. The officiai count will not be
reached until next week.
The election was quiet and orderly
throuahout the State ind for this we
shouia also be thankful.
The vote was light and it would
seem not many negroes voted.
In Newberry County the vote was
light. At Newberry only 10 negroes
voted at the State box and about the
same number at the Federal box. Very
little interest was manifested. Most of
those voting at the State box only voted
for governor and Lieutenant Governor.
We give below the vote forGovernor and
for Congressman for this County in de
tail with the exception of Glymphville,
from which box we had received no
return yesterday. The vote there will
not exceed 60 almost solid for the regu
lar nominess. Geo. Johnstone is elect
ed to Congress from this District by a
large majority. Shell, Tillman Hemp
bill, Brawley and Stackhouse are also
elected and possibiy Elliott giving us
six Demecratic Congressmen and possi
bly seven.
Good news for the Democrats has
also been received from other States.
The next Congress will be Democratic.
We trust now that everything will
settle down to its normal condition
and we can get down to business
A QUIET ELECTION.
COLUMIBIA, S. C., November 4.-2 P.
M.-Reports in from very few counties
indicate a small vote, and a nmajoritv
up to 12 in. favors Tillmian for Gov
ernor and Democratic nominees for
Congress. At several precincts through
out the State already heard from ballot
boxes were stolen and no election held.
These polls were conspicuous as be
ing in favor of Haskell, who opposes
Tillmnan for Governor. The negroes
are voting very slimly. It seems that
they are afraid to vote, but those voting
favor Haskell for Governor and the
regular Republican nominees for Con
gress.
4 p. m.-Comnparatively few counties
have been heard from, indications so
far give Tillman, his entire State ticket
and the Democratic Congressmen a
majority throughout the State. The
vote has been remarkably small outside
of Tillmnan's immediate supporters.
Few others have shown much interest
and the quiet vote has been mostly for
his opponent, Judge Haskell. The
negro has not shown the interest that
- a expected, and the impression is
that the vote will prove the smallest
ever cast in the State.
5.20 -p. m.-Telegrams which are
coming in rapidly from diff'erent points
throughout the ~State do not change
the result as indicated in previous tele
grams. Tillmnan and his entire State
ticket appear to have carried the State.
All of the Democratic Congressmen,
with possible uncertainty of one in the
Seventh District, are elected: There has
been no disturbance so far as heard,
from.
THE NEGRO D)IDN'T voTE.
9 p. m.-Scattering returns from
every section of the State indicate the
election of Tillmnan and his entire State
ticket by a large majority except in the
coast counties, which have ver.y large
negro majorities, and in a fewv of the.
cities. The negroes have failed to vote,al
though they have where voting favored
*the Haskell ticket. It does not look as'
if 20,000 of.the negroes in the State have
voted and the white vote isexceedingly
light. This is attributable largely to
the registration law and general apathy
on account of the split in the Demo
cratic party. Fragmentary returns
from the various Congressional districts
indicate that the regular Democratic
candidates have had a wvalk over except
in the Seventh district where the con
test between Elliott (Denm.) and Miller
(Rep.) is thought to be uncomfortably
close. Impossible to give figures to
night.
12 Midnight.-Up to this hour only
125 precincts out of 507 in the State
have reported officially giving figures
for governor, Tillman 13,77S; H askell
5,913~. These precincts usually poll
about one-third of the vote of the State,
so it is likely that the total vote will
not exceed 70,000' Haskell's vote may
reach 25,("00. As the returns come in~
is demonstrated the absolute failure of
the negroes to support the Haskell
ticket, and in various sections they
voted for Tillmian. It is not likely the
further returns wvill alter this estimate.
The returns for congressmen show
that six out of seven districts are cer
tainly Democratic by large majorities.
The 7th district is in possible doubt,
with chances favoring Elliott (Demi.)
against Miller and Brayton, both Re-'
publican candidates.
The election throughout the State
*has been the quietest known so far as
heard from.

The Road will be Completed at Once
Possi ble Changes in the Management.
[Charleston World.]
John Shea, of Johnson City, Ten
nessee, has received a telegram from
James F. McDonald, who is in New
York, containing the following wel
come news:
Barker Bros., of Philadelphia, have
advanced sufficient capital to complete
the Three C's Railroad at once. Messrs.
Barker Bros., is one of the leading
banking firms of Philadelphia, and it
is understood they have taken bonds
suficient to complete the road entire
from Marion, N. C., to Ashland, Ky.,
besides paying oft' the indebtedness of
the company, which amounts to a con
siderable sum. This will, indeed, be
joyful neivs to the people all along the
line. Twenty-three miles of road from
Johnson City south are in operation,
and twelve miles northward have
been completed. Much of the grading
between Johnson City and Marion has
been done and track-laying might be
proceeded with at once. Full partic
ulars of the deal will not be kniown for
some days, but it is believed there will
be some changes in the management.
THE AUG;'sTA DIVIsION Mov.ING
ALONG.
Col. P. P. Dickinson, chief engin"er
of the Construction Company of the
Three C's, gives some fresh information
in regard to the progress of the work
on the Augusta division of the ro,ad
from Blacksburg to New berry. He said
that the grading was being carried on
along practically the entire line bet ween
New berry and the Broad river crossing,
about fif~ty-five miles. About Nov. 1
the quarrying of stone for the masonry
required on the route would be begun,
and it wvas expected that by February
the shaping of the stone will be sutii
cietly completed to permit the work
on the bridge abutments to begin.
The superstructures for bridges over
the Broad, Thicketty, Pacolet, Tyger
and Enoree rivers will be of iran, and
have been orderedl from the Phcenix
Bridge Co. of Phrenixville, Pa. The
01 pound steel rails for the emire divi
sion have been contracted for with the
Bethlehem Iron Co., of Bethlehem, Pa.
It is expected that the line from
Blacksburg to Newberry, il miles, will
be ready for the rails next spring or
early in the summer. The const ruction
of the line will be p)ushed forward as
rapidly as possible, and no dlelays are
explected.

from the scene of his Ghastly
Work.
jColumbia Register, 2nd.]
Mr. John F. Lonias reached this city
last evening about S:15 and immediate
lv sought out Sierill'Rowan, to whom
lie gave information of a horrible
m11urder in Iichland County during the
afternoon. lie wa- seen by a Register
r1presentLtive, and he told the follow
in, Story:
The viu was b Florence Horns
by, the youngest daughter of Mr. G.
\\ esley lornby, who lives about seven
miiies north ol the city, near Crane
Creek uad about a mile from the
WinnLoro road. Miss loriisby was
about 1; years of age. of medium height
aid well proportioned for a girl of her
a_e. Shortlh before 5 o'clock -Miss
lfornSby left her elder sister in the
house aid went to a spring about two
hundred vard-, from the house for Som1le
purpose or other. She was absent for a
longer time than was necessary for her
to perfern her task, but tile occurrence
i was not seriouslv thought of.
A bout 5:30 a colored boy was sent to
a field to obtain somue corn, and passing
close to the spring lie nade a fearful
di jcovcry. The dead body of Miss
Hor.isby lay face upwards un the grass
a few yards from the bpring with the
throat cut from ear to ear.
The boy, terror-stricken, fled to the
house, where lie told what he had seen.
The alarm was quickly sounded and
the neighborhood aroused. On iavesti
gation it was found that the boy's story
was tIre. The body of the girl was
foUnd lying Oil its back, with a horrible
gash in 1 he throat. The clothing was
disarranged, and there was evidence
that a nameless-crine had been at
tempted.
The girl had made a fearful struggle
for her life -md her honor, for the con
dition of the grass gave mute evidence
of that. A paddle, such as is always
found at spring in the country, was
lying a few feet from her, stained with
lier blood. The struggle had lasted
several rIillutes at least, and her assail
alit, fiiding the girl could not be over
come by brute force, and apprehending
a serious result should her cries be
heard, ended her life in the manner
de:cribed.
A clump of brush prevented aiy one
from seeing the murder, and her cries,
if such were uttered, were too faint to
be heard. The murderer evidently
failed to accoiplishi his purpose; lie
disappeared w-ithout leaving;a possible
clue for the olleers of t lie law to n ork
on. Mr. Lomnas lives about 300 yards
from where the murder tccurred, and
lie had several hands at work in a cot
ton tield less than that distance from
the suring. These hands heard some
one rtinning through the woods adja
cent to the spring, heard him trip and
fail, and heard a rail break as he
climbed a fence.
The colored boy who discovered the
murder says that hesaw a burly negro
in the road a short distance from the
sprin(g a few moments previous to the
hour the girl started on her errand.
Instant search was made for the fiend,
but no trace of hin could be found, and
after fully an hour had been spent, Mr.
Lomas caie to this city to notify
Sheriff Rowan and the Coroner, for
the body had been left in the field.
There was great excitement in the
vicinit v of the nurder, and a search for
the villain was maintained until a late
hotur. Sheritr Rowan notified the Coro
ner and he will take the case in hand
early this morning, but lhe has, at pres
ent, btut little hlope of success.
Miss Hornsby was a bright, intelli
gent young lady, and of good personal
appearanlce. She was greatly liked by
all whot knew her, and her sad death is
a great blow to ther friends.
Ax IMworrIANT WIrxESS AItIESTE!).
CoLnUMrA, November, 2.--Nothiung
important has occurred relating to the
mysteritous murder of Florence Horns
by the p)retty fifteen-year-old girl,
eight miiles from this city, last even
inir. The Coroner has been on the
groundl all (lay, and the Sheriti has
taken charge of the case, but there is
not evidence so far that will throw any
light on it. TIo-nighit "Dute"' Hagood,
a negro 15 years old, was arrested. He
was the ruan who first gave the alarm,
and who (discovered the (lead body of
the girl. Several attempts were made
to lynch the negro, butt he was brought
safly to Columibia and lodged inl jail.
Fiom an exainal~tion of the ground
it seems that Miss Hornsby had walked
downt to thte spring, when she was as
saulted and thrown down. There was
a terrible struggles at this place, and
the girl she suteceeded in breaking
away and started to run toward her
honie, on!v 200 yards distant. Her as
sai lanit followed, and, overtaking her
when she hadl gone hut fifty yards,
caught her by the hair, pull her
heath back, and( gave onie dleadly stab
in the neck. She (lied in a few min
utes. It is asserted nt)w t hat the boy
arrested is eithler the guilty one, oir
knows wvho he is. Hie was workIng
near by, and mnust have seen what oe
cured.' He gave away a knife that he
had last night. The peop)le in the
neghhborhoiod are terribly excited, and
hal there not been grave doubts of
Hagood's guilt, anid had he not been
hurried arvay, he would have certain
ly been lynebed.

HURLED TO THEIR DEATH.
Two khulilren Thrown from a High Bridge
by a Young Woman of Akron, N. Y.
BUFFALO, N. Y., November 1.-One
of the most terrible murders ever
known in the history of Erie County
was committed at Akron, twenty-four
miles east of this city last night. A
young woman named Sarah McMullen,
aged 19, formerly living in Bufftlo, but
lately residing with Mrs.Patrick Brown,
in Akron, enticed Delia Bron, aged 6
years, and Nellie May Connors, aged
110 on to the Akron cement works' nar
row-guage railroad bridge, a height of
sixty-five feet, over Murier Creek. All
of a sudden she pushed Delia Brown
over the side of the bridge, and then
grabbed Nellie May Connors and
hurled her into the precipice below.
Nellie was instantly killed, but, for
tunately little Delia Brown lives to tell
the tale. Her arms and legs ore broken,
and although terribly bruised, it is
thought she will recover. Last night
the citizens of Akron searched for the
ruissing girls and found them at about
2 o'clock this morning. For several
hours little Delia had laid on thestones
at the side of the creek unable to move.
She said to Constable Burns that Sarah
had hard work in p)ushing Nellie Con
nors over the bridge and came very
near falling over herself.
After committing the act Sarah Mc
Mullen returned to Mrs. Brown's house
and said to Mrs. Brown, "I am going
away; perhaps you will not see me
again." At the same time she extended
her hand. Mrs. Brown thought she
was fooling: when Sarah again spoke
up, "well, if you won't shake hands
with me, all right," and then she went
out. Her actions excited the curiosity
of the family.
Sarah started for the bridge over the
mill dam at Akron, about ten feet
high, and arriving at the place stepped
between the iron braces and jumped
into the water, which is several feet
deep. Simon Brown saw her and ran
to the spot and rescued her fron drown
ing. No reason is assigned for her ter
rible deed. It is believed to be a crazy
act. She is in custody, but will not
talk.

For about thirteen years I have been troubled
with eczerna or some eutaneous disease which
all reinedies failed to cure. Hearing of the CUTI
CV*.A REmviyEs. 1 resolved to give them a trial.
I f tlowe the directions carefully. and it affords
me Inlllch Pleasure to say that before using two
b0-7es of the CcMcCRA. four cakes of CVTIcuRA
SOAP. anld one bottle ef CUTIcURA RESOLVENT, I
was entirety cured. In addition to my own case,
mny baby boy. then about tive montbs old. was
sutfferitig with what I supposed to be the same
diisea.se a.s mine. to such an t xtent that hil head
wits Coated over with a solid seab. from which
there was a constant flow of pus which was sick
ing to look upon besides two large tumor-like
kernels on the back of his head. Thanks to your
wonderful CE'TIcURA RE-4EDIES. his scalp is per
feetly well.and the kernels have been scattered so
that there is on!y one little p)lace by his left ear.
and that i% healing nicely. Instead of a coating of
-cals he 111 a tile coat of hair. much better than
that which was destroyed bly the disea.-e. I would
that the whole world of sufferers from ,kin and
blood diseases knew the value of your CC'tICrP.A
REMEDIES a 1 do. They are worth ten times the
price at which they are sold. I have never used
any other toi!et soap in my house since I bought
the first cake of your CUTIC-nA SOAP. I would
le illilllulal, as well as ungrateful. should I fail
to jyeak well of aid recornimd them to every
siifrerer. I have spoken of them ind shall con
tinue to speak of them from the pulpit, in the
holles. an1d in the stretts. Praying that you may
live long.and do others the same amount of good
you hlave done mle and1( rny chlild, I remain yours
