Ther' was a big crowd in town Mon day. Good order prevailed. A lot of mules,have been sold hereS In the past few weeks. Governor Till nan bas appointed Mr. E. P. Jones, of Newberry, a notary public. The early gardener is at work in Newberry, but the thermometer still: goes do*n for him. Mr. W. P. Counts lost a five dollar! bill on the streets of New berry one day' last week. He would be glad if any one: found it to have it returued. A drummer in Newberry last week said the way to spell "blind tiger" with - four letters is thus: "Tger".-as the an nimal didn't have an i (eye). Col. D. A. Dickert, of this county, we understand has . been appointed I chief constable under the dispensary law for Newberry County. f The State constables need not carry f their Winchesters on the streets of Newberry, as this is a peaceful and I law abiding town and these are sup posed to be peacefut times. The coroner held an inquest on yes terday on the body of a little negro child that was burned to death on Mr. Gus Summers' place on Monday. The old story of the parents leaving the child alone in the house. Col. D. A. Dickert wanted to have that "secession" bug that was found in The Herald and News oflee investi gated. He referred to it in the meeting of the James D. Nance Camp on Mon day. There is nothing more to be said except that the bug was no myth. Miss Hettie Wiskemai has moved to Mrs. H. H. Blease's where she has a room. She will be glad for her friends to bear in mind that she would be glad to have any sewing or dress making they may have to give out and that she will do it neatly and promptly. A young lady died in No. 6 one day last week and left an infant only a few hort.rs old. It seems she died from lack of attention and the coroner held an inquest. The infant was left without anyone to care for it and the county commissioners were - asked to take charge of it. Yesterday they succeeded in getting a lady in No.6 to care for the little one. The types made Jamieson say ast week that he was selling men's half shoes when it should have been calf shoes. Jamieson not only does not sell half shoes, but he does not do any thing by halves. When he says prices are reduced he means it, and when he says goods must go, they go. If you do not believe it give him a,eall and he. will show you goods at prices that will astonish you. Personals.

State Constables in Town With the Hope or Getting Ball for Massey. The fact of Justice Pope's residence in this eity has been the occasion of -the enactment of the third chapter of the Wellford tragedy in this city. It will be' remembered That on the eve ning of the third that Mr. Ballew was shot and killed by Constable Massey and that the constable has been held by the coroner's jury, although it pro nounced it a case of killing while re sisting arrest. Yesterday morning Chief Constable Fant, in company with Constable Mas sey. arrived in the city from Spar'an burg. Faut had Massey in charge as the deputy of Sheriff Dean. Massey came here for the purpose of securing bail and being released. It was expected that Solicitor Schumpert was here and that court was in session and that there would be no trouble in securing the desired bail. Upon finding out that Solicitor Sehuupert was not in the city Mr. Faut went to see Justice Pope about the matter and was told by him that he would not entertain the application for bail until the Solici tor was notified of the proposed action or proper notice bad been served upon him. He, however, suggested that Walter H. H'int, Jr., might act for the Solie:tor in his absence, and the con stables in consequence went to see Mr. Hunt. He consented in the absenceof Solicitor Schumpert to represent the I State in the matter. Then the con stables were puzzled about getting a lawyer to prepare the requisite papers with which to get before Justice Pope on habeas corpus. -Telegrams were sent to the Attorney General as to what had better be done, and Chief Constable Fant was advised to secure a lawyer. Mr. J. F. J. Cald- 1 well was first seen about the matter, but advised the constables that they had probably better be represented by i some lawyer in sympathy with the law and system. They then went to see Mr. Thos. S. Sease. If the proper papers are all prepared ] and the constables are successful in i their quest for a lawyer, the issue will probably be heard to-day by Justice Pope. - The State Y. B. C. A. The seventeenth annual meeting of the South Carolina Y. M. C. A. will begin on Thursday evening of this week at Sumter and continue through Sunday next. The indications are that < it will be the largest ever held in the s State, 's the reports received by the t Secretary of the Sumter Association I show that over one hundred delegates i expeet to be present. Sumter will pro- ( vide free entertainment for the dele- ] gatea. The opening address will be delivered by Rev. J. B. Fox, of our I ity. Mr. A.
