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.]

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. Mitchell and he is a reli
able colored man.
Mitchell's statement of what trans
pired is given below. After it was
taken down, it was read over to him
and- he affixed his signature to it. 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. Lipscomb then
started to get dowvn out of his sulky,
but at that time a crowd of children
gathered around and they both drove
right off and never said anything more
at all"

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:

PROM (SE ANI) PERFOUMANCE.
A i;rief Review of the Adminirtration
One Year Ago a"cd Now.
[(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.

His wife is a Catholic, and he is a

"Well," said the Senator," I wilt

THREE
REASONS.
WHY.
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.
ASSETS...........S.. I 19,243,744
LIABILITIES (4 per cent) 95,593,297
SURPLUS......... .........$23,740,447
2. CONTRACT (or Policy) -This deter
mines your rights and privileges. The Free
Tontine policy and application of the Equi
table is free from any and all restrictions
after one year, is absolutely incontestable
after two years. gives . choice of six methods
of settlement at theend of the stated period,
and is payable immediately on receipt of
proofs of death. Compare this with the
policy of any other company, and the
verdict will neccssarl'y be in favor of the
Equitable
3. 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.

furnished on application to
