PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT NEWBERRY, S. C. FOR INSULTING IlS WIFE. A. V. Howell Shoots and K:IIs W. J. Mc Grath. AuGiSTA, Ga., June 11.-Another terrible tragedy has been added to Warrenton's bloody record. Capt. W. J. McGrath, a prominent merchant there, was shot and instantly killed by Mr. A. V. Howell, who recently re moved from Warrenton to Atlanta. Howell fired five shots at McGrath, four of which took effect in the latter's head and body. The two men were standing in the postoffice at Warrenton, and when Howell fired the fatal shots were not more than four feet apart. McGrath fell to the floor and died in a few min utes in great pain. He spoke only a few words after-being shot. One of these was an invocation to God to have mercy on his soul, and to a friend who cau tioned him to keep still, he said: "I will be still in a few moments." There was only one witness to the shooting. That was Judge H. H. Fitz patrick, the postmaster at Warrenton, who was filling out a money order blank for McGrath at the time. It is stated that Howell went into the postoffice, and seeing McGrath, said: "Capt. McGrath, you have been writ ing letters to my wife." With this, Howell drew his pIstol and began firing at McGrath, who offered no resistance. There are sensational features con nected with the case,and place McGrath in. the attitude of writing love letters to Howell's wife. McGrath is a married man, with a family of four children, and cane to Warrenton from Charleston, S. C., four years ago. He is a son of ex-Governor Magrath, of that city. Howell's wife is the daughter of J. W. DeBeaugrine, an ex-Charlestonian, who has been residing in Warrenton several years. Shc and Howell were married about two months ago. It is reported that McGrath wrote her several notes before her marriage, making improper advances, one of which fell into her father's hands. This led to an altercation,in whichMcGrath's life was threatened. The matter dropped, however, and nothing more was heard until last Tuesday, when Mr. Howell came to Warrenton. Then it was learned that he had taken a letter from the post office at Atlanta addressed to his wife and containing eight pages. The let ter had no name signed to it, but was postmarked from Warrenton, and mentioned an express package which the writer had forwarded to M~rs. Howell. It wa claimed to be Mc Grath's handwriting. Howell demanded an explanation of his wife, but she protested her inno cence and gave her husband to under stand that she had long been the vic tim of such persecutions at the hands of McGrath. This is what brought about the shooting. Howell was brought to Augusta to night and committed to jail to await the action of the Warren County grand jury. The coroner's jury which sat in in quest on McGrath's body, refused to say whether the killing was justifiable homicide or murder. Warrenton is greatly excited over the affair, as Capt. McGrath has many strong friends among the citizens. Howell is a carriage builder by trade, and his wife is nothing mor: t.han a child.I McGrath's relatives at Charleston have been telegraphed for, and will reach Warrenton to-morrow. THE VICTIM NOT A SON OF EX-GOVER NOR MLAGRATH, OF CHARLESTON. [Special to the State.] CHARLESTON, S. C., June 12.-The body of Capt. WV. J. McGrath, who was killed in Warrenton, Ga., Thursday, arrived in the city to-night in charge of his father, Capt. John McGrath, who met the remains in Augusta. De ceased was not a son of ex-Governor Magrath, as at first reported. The wife and children of the dead man also arrived with the body. The funeral will be held to-morrow. THE TALBERT-LIPSCOME TROUB~LE. What William Mitchell. an Eye Witness. Say of the Affair.1 [The State, 11th.] Yesterday an eye witness to the Tal bert-Li pscomb trouble was fond(. His - name is Win.

Here It as: coming from home between S and 9 o'clock and what caused me to slack up was hearing some one using the word 'lie.' Mr. Talbert said to Mr. Lipseomb; 'I have often remarked it to Lark (his drive r) about you1 not comning about mue since I have taken charge of the penitentiary.' Mr. Lips comb said. 'I would come about vou but there is something that I av heard t hat you sail.' MIr. Talbert said: 'fanyb)ody says that I say anything about you, he is a d--- liar and a d-n scoundrel. Anyvthing I have said in t he papers relating to you holds good yet. I have always spokenx well of you, (o>lone!.' "Mr. IAp.comnb then said sornething about ,cme cotton : already menicitionecd in the State), and what that was 1 could not get hold of. Mir. Tlalbert then said, '"You look like you comle down here to pick a fuss with me this morning, and if you did you can get it any way y'ou want to, now or any other time." Col. Lipscomib said "W ho ever says I said so and so"--I forgot what this was-"is a d--n liar and scoundrel.' Col.

CABOLINA IN THE CENSUS. .icwberry the only County in the State that Shows a Decrease of Population, and that only of G3. WAsINGrox, June 10.-A census bulletin has been issued giving the population of the State of South Caro lina by minor civil divi-ions and em bodying also figures of the census of 14'! for comparison. The total population of the State under the eleventh census, taken as of June 1, 1890, is 1,151,149, an increase of 155,572, or 15.63 per cent. over the popu lation of the State in 1880, which was 995,577. In only one county of the State is a decrease shown. This is in New berry County, where a decrease of 63 persons is found. Other counties show increases varying from 3 per cent. to 37.06 per cent. Florence and Spartanburg counties show the largest percentages of in crease, while Spartanburg County also shows the largest numerical increase. in both of these counties is more than one-third. Anderson County shows an increase of 10,0S4 or 30 per cent. since 1880. Clarendon, Richland and York counties show an increase of more than 25 per cent. while Horry and Lancaster counties show an increase of nearly 25 per cent. The figures for 1SSO for Berkeley and Florence counties represent the popu lation of the townships now composing them, which in 1880 formed parts of other counties. The population of townships thus taken has been deduct ed from the total population in 1880 for Charleston, Clarendon and Marion counties. Of the cities and towns in the State having a population of 2,000 or more, the largest percentages of increase are found in Piedmont,Rock Hill,Laurens, Darlington and Camden towns and Sumter city. The largest numerical increases during the decade are found in Columbia and Charleston cities, Co lumbia having increased 5,317, or 52.98 per cent., while Charleston has in creased 4,971, or 9.95 per cent. The populatlon of twenty cities and towns, in the order of their rank, is as follows: Cities. 1890. 1880.

[(Greenville News.] A year ago yesterday, June 10th, 1S9i , the great Tillman campaign was opened in Greenville. Many people who read this remseni ber the meeting-the enthusiasit, the pride, the faith, the hope with which the friends of the popular cause gath ered to cheer the popular candidate and to discountenance his opponents. Some will remember it with sore heart, for some who at that meeting took pains to be prominent in their hurrahs for Tillman were left out in the divide and found when the votes were counted that they had their labor for their pains. Looking over the files yesterday, we were struck with one or two notable utterances of his opening speech and the light thrown upon t:m by recent events and developments. The assessed taxable of the State of Georgia, he said, had increased one hundred mil lion dollars in ten years whiie those of this State had see-sawed, sometimes rising and sometimes falling. There must, he said, be a reason for this. Some said the people did not return their property honestly, but that wouldn't do, for the same rule held good in other States. He thought our failure to increase like Georgia was caused by the absence of a republican form of government-by ring rule. The alleged ring rule has been over thrown, but there has been no great rush of prosperity visible to the naked eye. To the contrary, Comptroller General Ellerbee appears to be strong ly of the opinion that our poor show ing in valuation for taxation is caused by the failure of the people to return their property honestly and in that opinion he apparently has the Gov ernor's support. Work has been begun in pushing up the bank and railroad assessments, and we are promised that the same thirg will be done with farm land, mulas and other property so soon as the officials can get at them. A large part of that speech of June 10th, 1890, was taken up in arguing for a primary election for State officers. We had no primary, although every body but Captain Tillman's friends was anxious for it. In another part of the same speech Captain Tillman complained that the department of agriculture had paid $12,162 in fees to lawyers who repre sented the State in a suit for certain phosphates by which the State re covered - $51,000. "Why," he asked, "did not the attorney general and the solicitors who are State officers on big salaries prosecute the case for the State and save this money ?" This point was taken to be a strong one-a deci sive illustration of the reckless extrav agance of the old State government and was loudly cheered. Yet in the present phosphate suits against Coo saw outside lawyers who wvork only for big money have been freely employed. When it came to Governor Tillman's turn he did precisely the same thing he censured Governor Richardson for doing, and ealled in extra heJp for the State's case. Has there been any discovery of gen eral rottenness and mismangement in the old government? Two shortages were found, amounting together to about $6,800, we believe, and both were promptly made good. Has there Iseen any large reduction of exnenses or taxes ? Have any offices been abolished ? Have the laws been better or more effectively administered ? Have we been more peaceful or pros perous or contented than before ? I.et us from time to time keep in view promise and performance, charge and proof ~Lese are things to judge a man or a government by. Vance's Three R's.

Has it ever occurred to you that, in selecting a company in which to assure your life, there are three points which, if correctly ascertained, will determine beyond all question the best company for you to choose ? Here they are: FIsT-SAFETY. S1coaD-CONTRACT. THIRD-RESULTS. . SAFETY (or Strength) is all impor tant: for an insurance contract is either en tered intofor a long period of years or for life In the case of an insurance company (as with an individual or with any other business organization), strength is determined.by the amount of assets OVER AND ABOVE ALL LIA HLITrIEs: or, in other words, by the Surplus. As the surplus of the Equitable Life Assur ance Society of the United'States on Dec. :Jst, 19., amounted to Twenty-three and Three Quarter Millions (a sum many millions In excess of the surplus held by any other life company in the world), and as theEquitable's ratio of aasets to liabilities is 125 per cent., i. e., $125 to meet each $100 of indebtedness (a percentage greatly in excess of that of any other leading company), the question of greatest safety must be decided in favor of the Equitable.

RESULTS.-The settlements that are being made on the twenty year Tontine pol icies of the Equitable Society, maturing in 1891, show a cash return to the policy-holder himself, IN ADDITION to the protection fur nithed by the life assura.ce for twenty years, of all the premiums paid, with interest at from 2'"1 to 7 per cent. per annum besides (according to the kind of policy and age of the assured). No other company can show such results, and hence it is that the Equita ble's business has outstripped that of every other assurance organization.
