The Stolen watch.
On Sunday afternoon, June 12th,
Mr. B. M!. Dennis had a ladies' gold
watch, chain, necklace and other jew
elry stolen from his residence. A clue
was obtained to thbe stolen articles when
two colored youth gave a deseription .of
a watch and chain that they saw in
possession of Will Green, a colored
youth of this town. Green sold the
watch and chain to some one at Clin
ton after leaving New berry.
Mr. Dennis discovered that Green
was summering at Asheville, and wrote
the chief of police there to hold him.
Chief of Police Bishop wired also, and
went up after Green last Friday and
brought him to Newberry, and he is
now in jail.
Mr. Dennis wet,t to Clinton on Mon
day to look up the watch, but was un
successful in finding it.

Postmaster Davidson has returned

crops are better than ever known be

The crops throughout the county are
reported to be the best in years, and are
just as good as the land can produce
where they have been worked.
We don't want to discourage any of
the candidates, but.we advise some of
them to begin- learning that beautiful

Master Albert Davis fell in the well
at Fulmer & Stockman's engine room
yesterday afternoon, but he quickly
caught hold of the bucket and was
drawn to the top uninjured. The well
is about twenty-five feet deep and has
about fifteen feet of water.
The whistle of the engine at Davis'
shops is the softest and most musical of
the kind ever reverberating over the
ills of New berry. While loud, it is not
harsh and shrill like some penetrating
blows. our long-suffering and public
ears have received in times past.
The competitive examinations for
vacant scholarships in tbe Winthrop

six applicants, namely: Misses. Blair,
Eargle, Mazyck, Salter, Saxon and
Scott.
Overseers of public roads are required

Not simply to "work the roads" by

an abomination. We want the grand

all through the country.
Mr. Frank Moon, of Utopia, was in
town Saturday. He told us of the best
plan for preiervin3g sweet potatoes we
have ever h'eard promulgated. But
we will not give the secret away, as it
would not be exactly right; or at least
some people might think it wrong to
do so. Mr. Moon is original and appre
ciative and we wish him great success
in his preserving process. We hope he
may never be gored by another ox.

Saturday afternoon. Evangelist Kinard
assisted at thbe meeting. Many negroes
were present, and two of thbe sisters got
pretty full of spirit; but our Chief of
Police quickly let them know that while
he personally could have no objection
to their individual or collective exuber
ance (as Wie Higgins might say), as an
officer of the law it was his duty to
suppress any sort of rebellion or fullness
of spirits, either blind tiger or any other
kind. Somehow this reporter had it in

A SAD DROWNING.
i The Untimely Death of Prof J Thornwell
Boozer in Texas.
The people of Newberry were shocked
on Sunday morning when a telegram
was received by Mr. S. P. Boozer an
nouncing the drowning of Prof. J.
ThorDwell Boozer, his nephew, in
Texas. The telegram did not state how
he was drowned, and no subsequent
information has been received. Prof.
Boozer, however, was on a visit to Mr.
John G. Piester, at Brock, Texas, and
it is there where he was drowned.
These are the bare particulars. His body
did not reach here yesterday as was ex
pected, and it will probably come to
day.
Prof. Boozer was the son of Mr.
Henry D. Boozer, of Township No. 6.
He was a graduate of the Citadel. He
went a few years ago to Texas and had
been successfully engaged in teaching.
Only two weeks ago he passed with
distinction an examination and was
rewarded with promotion.
Last summer he returned to New
berry and took away as his bride Miss
Carrie Aull, daughter of Mr. James H.
Aull.
The sympathy of the entire communi
ty is manifested in behalf of the be
reaved families.

DEPARTURE OF MAJOR LAMBEET
JEFFERSON JONES.
The Senior Member of the Newberry Ba
Passes Away After a Long. Useful and
Successful Life In the Eighty-first
Year of His Age.
The demise of this venerable citizei
and jurist, though not unlooked for, be
cause of his length of years and recent
ly declining health, has touched th
heart of Newberry with feelings of sor
row and regret.
_ To within a comparatively brief pe
riod of his death, Major Jones ha<
been in the enjoyment of almost robus
health, so that to many, no doubt, botl
at home and abroad, the sad intelli
gence that went out from his family las

had breathed his last, must have beei
a mournful surprise.

after an energetic, ind-ustrious an,

was always found at the post of dut3
He was born in Newberry County 0
the 17th day of July, 1813. He wa
orphaned at a tender age. His fathei
Elijah Jones. died while he and hi
brother Whitfield B. were infants.
Major Jones was graduated fror
Brown 'University, Rhode Island, ii
the class of 1837 and admitted to th
Bar in 1839, where he -continued t,
practice his chosen profession -awith un
tiring diligence, building up, thereby,
very lucrative practice.
He was Commissior'er in Equity fo
twelve years-from the year 1840 tA
1852-and discharged the duties wit
eficiency and faithfulness. He thei
represented Newberry County in th
General Assembly, proving his abilit,
and usefulness as a legislator. His sue
cess, in whatever work be undertook
was largely due to his diligence an<
undivided attention. He was promp
and energetic always.
Major Jones was the oldest practi
tioner in the State-fifty-fiveyears ii

Judge Pressly wereof the same class,bu
the Judge has retired from ,practice
With the exception of a brief clerkshil
in Columbia and his temporary officia
absence,' the whole of his long and
eventful life was spent in Newberry
In the palmy days of his profession i
number of young men read law witt
him and have since been distinguished
Of these are Col. 0. L. Schumpert
Major J. F. J. Caldwell, Hon. Geo. S
Mower and our present worthy Master
Silas Johnstone, Esq.
Judge O'Neall was Major Jones' life
long friend, and by his counsel an(
advice attained education and prepared
himself for the practice of law. He wac
himself devotedly attached to Judgf
O'Neall and loved him with sincer(
and reverent affection. Judge O'Neal],
in his Annals of Newberry (1840),
says:
"Mr. Jones is a graduate of Brown
Unifersity, Rhode Island. He is a
lawyer of growing practice and reputa
tion. By the energy which he has dis
played in overcomtng the difficulties of
his early life, there is much to hope
from the future. Glad shall I be to see
him favored by length of days, virtu
ous and honored posterity."
Had the good old Judge lived he
would have realized his prayer, for
Major Jones lived and died surrounded
by a happy family of children and
grandchildren, and also by the beloved
wife of his bosom, Miss Eliza McHardy,
o whom he was married on the ]6th of
arcb, 1842. It will be remembered
hat they celebrated their golden wed
ing two years ago.
The beautiful sunshine of his home
ad been darkened, for the angel of
eath cut down several of the childreu
n whom he delighted, and though the
all grasses hid them away, he never
eased to mourn their loss.
Major Jo~nes' surviving children are
rs. L. W. White of A bbeville, Mrs.
eo. S. Mower, Mirs. T. C. Pool, and Mr.
ambert W. Jones of Newberry, who
racticed law with his father under the
irm name of Jones & Jones.
Major Jones loved his home, and
wen not at work could be found in

"My position on the whiskey traffic at this
time is as follows, yix: I am in favor of the
State controlling the sale of whiskey, either
by a strict license regulation with the reve
nue equally divided between the town and
county, or the dispensary system amended
In such form as to make it constitutional and
agreeable to the majority of our people, in
order that it may receive the moral support
I which is necessary to the enforcement of all
laws."

every objectionable substance.
