Great public in terest was manifested in the trial and the court room was crowded through out the progress of the case. Sarah Johnson, the Widow of the do ceased, testified that early on the night of Johnson's death he was called from his house by Joe Smith, colored, anlother occupalit of the same house, and the two men spent some time in conversation with a third man whom she took to be the defendant, that John son returned to his house, soon.became sick and died about 10 o'clock, after a series of five or six convulsions. She had been inarried to Johnson a month, previous to which time she had been criminally intimate with Horton, who was the father of one of her children. Mary3 Smith and Joe Smith, both colored, conttradicted S.aah Johnson 's testimony, arid the latt,er t,estified thlat he, ini company with Horton, left THor toni's house about (lark and went to a point nearn Johnson's house, where Smith called Johnson out at Horten's reqluest, to have aL talk, anId thenl left them togethler.

Johnson testified thlat Hor ton, a short, while before th.e killing, had1( gotten an~ order from himni for strychnirm to kill crows, and that on tile mornling after Johlnson'su deat.h Hor' tonl went to witness and asked him not to give 1him1 away about tihe strychlnine. M. P. Jlohinson saidl thlat onl tile sameI mlorniing thlat Horton was excited and told him that he expected to he ac cused of the murdor of Johnson because he0 had bleenI keeping .Johnson's wife. RLush Receder and Amanda Receder, both colored, swore that shlortly bofore thle killing Horton told thlem ho in tended to kill Johnson because Johnson had miaried his woman. Other minor susp)icious circumistances were p)roved. Dri. Peter Robertson testilled that he hlad made a chemical anlalysis of the contents of the dead man's stomachI and found ullnistakable traces of strych nine. He was corrob)orated as to this test by D)rs. Gilder and Kihler, who also gave tile symnpt,oms of str'ychnine poisoing whlichI corresponded very closely with thlose exhibitcd by John son before his death, according to the testimionly. Th'Ie (defense inltroduced Drs. 0. B. Mayer, WV. G. Houscal and D)r. Geo. Y. Hunter, who( stated tbat according to certain auntorities the chemical test as usned by Dr. I tobert.son wa n1 ot conclu sive as to the prescenee of strychnina. HI alf a dozen or miore witnesses were sworni whol provedl the good repu)itation for peaceablencss and lack of violence of tile (defendant, and a bad reputationl for tr'uth andl vor'acit-y of Joe Smith and Mary SmithI, witnesses for the Stato. Mrs. Emily HTorton, Mrs. Ella Anton, anId Marcellus HIorton, mother, sister and brother of t,he defendlant r'espec tively, and Loomis Anton, testified that. Horton was at home or elsewherue than at, Jfohnson's at the time t,he p)oison, If arny, rmust have be.n admiinisterecd. Willie Rfecr, M. A. Wheeler, Willie B3uford and one or-two ot,ber witnesses testified to facts Lending to supplort this plea of an alibi. Tire defendant testified in his own be half and exhibited (luring tIs or'dea' conlsider'able eIvidenlces of nervousness. Hie saidl that in the afmernoon of the day of Johnson's death lie wont to Kinards to meet his sister, Mrs. Autoni, got back homue with he ahortly aftm. dark, then went to Willie Butord's to return the buggy which he had bor rowed, riding horseback back to his own home which he reached about 10ol'lock and remained there during the night. While returning home from Buford's he passed Johlson's house where Mary Smith gave hin a drink of water, but he did not alight and did not see Johnson. le admitted that he got strychnine to kill crows and that he had been intimate with John son's wife before her marriage. In reply the State put up Prof. S. L. Powell, who testified that according to leading authorities the chemical test for stryel.n*ne used by Dr. Robertson was certain and reliable in its accuracy.

C., Oct. 21.-A child of Mr. Sheppard Lindler, aged about 3 years, got hold of a box of pill in which there were about 20, and un known to anyone, the child is supposed to havo eaten them all. It was taken violently sick and died in a couple hours. When will parents learn to keep such things out of reach of clil dren? We are keeping up with the proces slon. We can't afford to lag behind. Our depox, at the C., N. L. R. R. was broken into last Friday night. En trance was made through a window. Tile two ticket cases were broken open and the lock to the drawer in the desk was broken and it was rifled. The agent, Mr. Boland, had not left any money in it, except some old foreign coins, with perhaps a few old American pieces, amou..ting in all to about $2.00. They came very near having a water haul as to cash. Not being satisfied with the $2 they went into the ware room and helped themselves, cutting off huge slices of cheese and opening a case of peaches. Thley lunched of? of cheese alnd p)eaches. The peaches be ing for pies, they did not get outsilde of very many, and went their way rejoic ing. We have not been able to learn if anyone is suspected, but I anm told that a detect,ive is at work on the case, and we hope he will be eminently suc cessful in ferretiug out the guilty par ties. The South Carolina Synod is ,in ses s!cn, and a large nutmber- of thte dele gates and ministers have gone down from here. The people1 around Mace donia have been making great prepa ration for this meeting, and there will be more "shotes" and miuttons and beeves and chickens "fixed" up than my old friend Chips ever had time to think about, much less eat of. 01(1 boy, when I amt regaling myself I will think of you. Come down one day and enjoy the feast with "wee uns." Tihe breaking in did not stop with the C., N. & L. effort, but has boon ex tended to the Southern Rallway offce and the cotton offce of Wise Bros. Trhey ought to know cotton is too low for anybody to have any money lying atround. I guess they are trying their hand, but never mind, that is a long lane that has no turn. Rey. A. 0.

W. K. Sligh, of Newberry Col lege, Thtornwell Haynes and R. C. Counts, president of the society. The children, and for that fact the older ones, too, got some very good advice from these speakers, and the thing for thoem to do is to put in practice some, at least, of the many good things they heard. The society has raised during the year $65 for the use of missions, and by a special vote the entire amount was appropr'ded to the Augusta Mis sion. At night Prof. Sligh. preached a ver-y atono semmn anrd it will d1n good. We need more of such pungent, heart-searching sermons. They show us in our true light, strip us of our self-righteousness and show us just as we are and as the world sees us. Rev. Dr. Hallman, secretary, and A. H.

A pleasant time awaits you. The South Carolina Synod is in ses sion at Macedonia this week. There has been so many improvements made that one would hardly recognise it as the same church. New and comfort able seats have been put in, new pulpit and furnishings and everything nicely painted. And the singing! You just ought to go down there, Mr. ECditor, it would do you good. No operatic fool ishness, but good old-fashioned singing like our papas and mamas used to sing, and what we heard in our churches 20 and 25 years ago. The olection of officors resulted in Rev. M. M. Kinard, president; Rev. W. A. C. Muller, v!ce president; Rev. Dr. Hallman, secretary. The prosident preachod the annual sermon and gave some very good ad vice to his clerical brethren. The presidont'i report was road and was full of information. There had not been a death amng the clergy during the year and only two dismissals to other synods; one received, with two resignations now in hand. KAY. Croup Quickly Cured.
