Murdered by a Negro.
A shooting affray occurred at Ki
nards on Saturday, 13th, in whbich twvo
white men were shot by a negro who
was in the employ of Mr. Lemuel C.
Oxner, a young farmer of that section.
He had ~been assigned some work by
Oxner, and instead of going at it took
his hoe and went to his house. Oxner,
accompanied by his friend, Dr. C. D.
East, went to the rwgro's house. As
they pushed the door open the negro
fired at thenm with a musket. The load
- took effect ini Dr. East's arm and Ox
ner's stomach.
Dr. Mayer, who happened to be in
the neighborhood, attended the
wounded mIen.
The news reached here on Sunday
that Oxuer was worse and Drs. Mayer
and Houseal were starting up there to
perform an operation when a message
brought the intelligence of Oxner's
death, which occuirred at :2 p. m. on
The negro has not yet been arrested.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together:. and until the last few
years wassupposed to be incurable. For
a great many years doctors pronounced
it a local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to be a constittitional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.
Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, Ohio,
is the only constitutional c'mre on the
market. ~It is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts
directly upon the blood and mucous
surfoces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case.it fails to

Won the first Honor.
Miss Grace McHardy Jones, grand
daughter of Maj. L. J. and Mrs. Jones,
graduated at St. Marys school in
Raleigh, N. C., on the 11th June, 1891,
taking the second honor, the salutatory,
and only missed getting the first honor,
the valedictory, by seven-tenths of one
mark. She had only attended two
annur.I sessions of said school while her
class mates had been in attendance
several more sessions. She was un
able to return promptly at tle begin
ning of each session, and in that way
lost the benefit of two or three months
instruction which would more than en
able her to have made up the seven
t mths of one mark, which she lacked
of getting the first honor.
F'or the last several months, the presi
dent of said school has reported to her
mother that' Miss Grace was leading
the whole school at every examination
by taking the highest mark of any girl
in school. She hact also continued to
devote considerable attention to her
specialty, drawing and painting, and is
developing and improving her natu'ral
talent in that direction beyond the ex
pectat ion of her friends. *
It affords the ectitor of The Herald
and 3~ ews great pleasure to have it in
his power to publish the above flatter
ing account of Miss Grace's progress
and success in perfecting her education,
especially as it will be very gratifying
to her many school miates and friends
in New berry and elsewhere.

growing out of an Act of the last Legis
lature. The law providing for a license
of $2n11 for the sale of pistols and pistol
cartridges, which goes into effect Onl tihe
:2'd instant, will be resisted by the
manufactutrers of these articles.
They have retained -Mordecai and
Gadsden, lawyers of this city, and have
instructed themt to resist tl.e p)aymnent
of licenses in every County in the State
where an attempt is mnade to enforce
the collection oif the tax. Dealers
throughout the State will be notified
that the manufacturers will pay all the
expenses of the litigation. The fight
will probaibly be transferred to the
Federal Courts. The ground upon
which the law is to be resisted is the
decision of the Unitetd States Supreme
Court known as the original package
case, in whlichi it was held that a li
cese on goods sent from one State to
another in tile original packages wvas
unconstitutional. The tight p)romises

a man qualified to address the people
upon almost any subject. The man
agement called upon Mr. Geo. B.
Cromer to make the address. This he
consented to do. A large audience was
present to hear him and he was enthu
siastically applauded. His address was 1
ull of wholesome advice to the stu
dents.
Thursday night was devoted to the
children, and they acquitted themseves,

Isn't It So?
Nothing, of a commercial nature. does so
much to stimulate th,, idle, elevate the help- (
less, and empty ihe p)oorhouse, as Life Assur
ance. Through it we share our burdens and
in time of need are aided by our fellow men.
it gives independence, saves charity, and
teaches thritt, It brings light out of dlark-I
ness, and makes weakness strong.
THE PROOF.
If there are any persons who regard Tont ineC
t nssurance as a failure, it is sale to say that
they base their opinion on the criticism of
those who are Identified with companies that
o not issue Tontine policies. Th e easiest
eionstration of this is to cite a lew of the
ividends declared in 1891 on some of the 20
year Tontine policies of the Equitable. For
example, the holder of Life policy No. G6,548
has enjoyed $10,000 of assuranceJor 20 years,
or which he has paid $5,450 in annua' pre
nums. He is now able to draw a cash divi
dend of $4,154.30o, and many continue his as.
surance at a reduced rate of premium.
Or, he can surrender his policy and add to
cash value to this cash dividend, and thus
iraw a total of $7,213.60 in money. This is
equivalent to a return of all he has puidl in
>eiumtils, v tbShipl interest added at the
rate of :; pier cent. per annum.
Or, he can convert his policv and divIdend
into pai(i assurance for $13,380 (equal to 246
per cent. of the premiums paid),
The largest p)rofits, however, are shown on
Endowment policies. Take the follewiug
llustrations:
I. T he holder of policy No. G4,925 for $5,000
has paid $4,798 in premiums. The p)resent
ash value of his policy and dividends is $$,
449.45, equal to a return of all he paid, with
interest at the rate of over 7 per cent. per
annum in add(ition.
. The holder of policy No. 65,442 for $10,
00 has paid $9,634) In premiums. The present
cash of policy and dividends is $16,948.50,
equal to a return of all be has paid, with in
terest at the rate o1 over 7 per- cent. per an
. The holder of policy No. 66.493 for $3,000 t
has paid $3,106.80 in premiums. The presenta
asl. value of his policy andi dividends is
!8,438.31, equal to a return of all lie hias pid
with interest at the rate ol over i per cent. per (
annum. t
The Tontine policy of the Equitable Life l
Assurance Society of the United States not I
nly protect your wife and children if you s
hiould be taken from them, but also yieldl a r
handsome retnrn to yourself if you live nd(l
kee) your policy in force.
It is easy for any life company to show
lerge returns on policies which matur-e as
Death Claims, but the Equitable shows large4
returns also to the living policy-holder. Its
twenty-year To'itine P'olicies maturing in
54 (by the .expiration of the the Tontine.
perio) have a cash surrender value equal to
a return of atll premiums, with interest at
rates varying between two and seven per
ent per annum-ia

SAM ON 3POLITICS.
rite Inimitable, Sau Jones Talk; About
the Farmers' Alliance.
[Special to Augusta Chronicle.]
A-TLAN rA, Ga., June 1.-Sam Jones
s in Atlanta to-day, and this morning
alked in a characteristic way about
everal matters of interest. When
isked whether the Alliancemen of
I'exas were likely to go into a third
arty, he said: "The Alliancemen are
iot paying much attention to anything
ut what their leaders tell then. What
ver their leaders advise they will be
ipt to do. If the leaders in the Southern
states advise them to go into a third
?arty, that they will do. The Alliance
las my sympathy," continued the
Reverend Sam, "but it won't get there.
[ said in a public speech in Mississippi
hat every time the old parties played
,he rascal the farmers play the fool,
tind the fool gets left every time. The
Democrats will win, I reckon."
"If they get the whiskey crowd they'll
get the money, and money makes the
mare go. I wish to God both the Re
publican and Democratic parties were
wiped from the face of the earth, but
['ll never see it. The Republicans may
lie out, but when the last (lay comes
Lhey'll be burning Democrats. The
Democratic party has the principles
that are at the foundation, and what
ever good there is in the other parties
,omes from them. Old Thomas Jeffer
ion was a broad-minded man. But
Jeffersonian Democracy is one thing in
>ne place and another thing in another
place."
Speaking of the sub-treasury plan, he
said:
"Pin its ears back and grease it and
ts the easiest thing in the world to
swallow. Grease it with green grease, I
rnean. That makes things look right,
saw a fellow the other day talking
tbout the whiskey business and he had
i card the size of an envelope. On it
ie had in big letters W-R-O-N-G." He
ield it up and said: "You see that?
You see wrong on it." -Then he put a
15 bill over it and held it u p. "No w,' he
said, "you can't see it. Its there, but
rou can'tsee it.'"That,"continuedSam,
is the way it is with a heap of things
>ut money in it and its all right. Sena
or George is talking more good sense
o0 the farmers than any man I know."

I trusitc'- r rotm dill'ei ' ' parts of tit
countihty met at the cliol ('oitniS
sirners of.ice on last Seturday. Ar
thir Kibler was chosen -hairuiai o
the meeting :iid .1. F. Lrown, seere
tarv.
Several gluestions of uportance wer(
discussed, in fact all the iuestiois ii
the circular sent to the trustees.
The trustees as a rule reported theii
school houses in ordinarv condition
This iatter should be attended t(
and all the school rooms should bt
niade confortable before the next
school term begins.
Should the county be redistricted
was the next question discussed. The
majority of the trustees were in favoi
of having the school districts made
smaller at all early day. A few were
of the opiuion that the township plan
is good enough if the trusttees would
unly do their duty and not establish too
many schools.
The following reoiutiou was carried
by a unanimous vote
1csolecd, That it is the sense of this
meeting that the County Board of Ex
aiiners should redistrict all, or such
portions of the county as they may
think best.
As soon then as the board have the
means to do this work it will be at
tended to.
In regard to carrying out the law as
to the assessessrnent of polls the follow
ing motion was carried : That each
board of trustees divide their district
in three portions as nearly equal as pos
sible, so that each trustee may have
work to do n looking up the unre
turned polls. The trustees sht.uld at
tend to this matter a: quickly as pos
sible as the county auditor is anxious
to place the names on his books.
1liere are a great many liable to poll
tax who never pay. They have through
carelessness or otherwise left the mat
ter unattended to. Township No. 1,
including the Newberry Graded School
district will have at le"ist :0j more
polls this year than last. There are
other districts in which a great many
names may be added to the list.
The duties of school trustees received
the attention of the meeting also. It
was decided that all trustees should
meet at least two weeks before the
beginning of each school term, and
have a meeting on the 1st Saturday of
each month to sign pay certificates,
and sign them at no other time.
Th'h following school trustees were
present : J. C. Neel, W. M. Bobb, J.
J. Gallnan I. 31. Smith, H. H. Folk,
J. C. S. Brown, Juo. W. Scott, J. D.
A. Kibler, F. M. Schumpert, W. G.
Peterson, and T. W. Keitt. Mr. M. V.
Peurifoy, a teacher in the county, was
also present.
The meeting on last Saturday will do
good, no question about it. It will
cause the trustees to think more about
their schools, and to strive to improve
their condition.
The Prosperity High School 'lId its
closing exere es on last Wednesday
and Thursday :ighst. U. B. Cromer,
Esq., made an address on Wednesday
night. We did not have the pleasure
of hearing Mr. Cromef, but know from
what we have since heard '.at his
speech was a good one, and met the
approval of his audience.
On Thursday night the regular exer
cises of the school were held. There
were a good number of children to take
p.art, and each one's speech or recita
tion met with approval from the audi
ence.
A bout two months ago a number of
citizens of the town petitioned the
County Board of Examiners to give
them a special school district. The
petition was granted and in'a short time
the district will be laid off by a suir
veyor. Next fall the school will doubt
less be io -a better condit ion thanr it
has been for somne time.
The State Superintendent of Educa
tion L:as not yet informed us as to
arrangements for our County Institute.
We have wvaited, we think, long enough
should we not hear from him shortly,
the county hoard will turn their atten
tion to the matter.
