OTHER TO BE TRIED THURSDAY' Ainged Yesterday He'Bemanded Custo ary Three Days-Messrs. Schumpert and Dominick to Defend. he special term of the court of genera Ions, called for the purpose of try the negro rapist, George Strother, vened yesterday morning. The me with which Strother is charged, as committed on the 19th day of Feb uary upon the person of Miss Emms owers, who lives with her brother, Dr. J. L. Bowers, in the lower part of 'the county. It is alleged that on the ternoon of the day in question Miss wers was returning home from the ouse of George Counts her brother-in law, who lives about one mile distant. 7 That she was accompained by Mr. ' ounts' children the greater part of th A*ay. Just as the children left her, letween five and six o'clock in the :fternoon, she was accosted by the {;iegro, who asked her for money. 4Words ensued, and Miss Bowers fled and was caught by the negro, who ac complished his purpose. The negro about a week and a half later was brought to Newberry and placed in jail. A special term of court ,for his trial was asked by relatives of Miss Bowers, and was ordered by So icitor Sease after a personal investiga Ilion. Hon. G. Duncan Bellinger, of Barnwell, was appointed special judge. The court house yesterday morning was crowded to its capacity. Miss Bowers, heavily veiled, was brought ? into the court room on the arm of her brother. A true bill was returned by the grand jury, and the negro arrainged and his plea of not quilty entered. Col. O. L. Schumpert and Mr. F. H. Dominick were appointed attorneys, and upon their demand for the three days allowed by law in which to prepare the case, the trial was postponed until 11 o'clock Thursday. COURT CONVENED. The court was called prompt ly at ten o'clock, Hon. G. Duncan Bel linger-presiding, andSolicitor Sease and Stenographer Motte in their places. The indictment of George Strother, eharged with rape, was handed the grand jury. Judge Bellinger briefly charged the jury. There were two counts. The first that Strother, on F'bruary 19th feloniously made an ,sault upon Emma Bowers, and then and there did ravish against her will. The second that George Strother did assault Emma 'Powers with intent to rape. This is a special term of court, and .Judge Bel linger said he was only special judge, md it was not expected of him that he should deliver a charge as to the gen eral duties of the jury. Hle had only to do with the specific indictments handed him. If they found a probable case they would .o indicate by finding a "True Bill," if nbt, by returning "No Bill." The definition of rape is wher ever a man ravishes a woman without her consent, before or after, he should be deemed guilty of rape. "T' ILL" RETURNED).' TPhe grand jurwy retired and( after re maining out for~ nearly an hour returned a ''True Bill."' There being no other indictments to be acted on the grand <jury was dismissed. nIROUGIIT INTO COURT. Strother was immediately sent for and wvas p)laced in the dock, lie was asked if he hiad any attorney and re plied that he had not. When asked if he had any p)reference among the at torneys, he asked for the appointment of Col 0. L. Schumpert and Col. C. L. Blease. Mr. Schumpert said that he was al ways ready to oblige the court, but he had been sent for by the defendant se veral times and he had namedl a fee. No more was said and the matter had passed entirely from his mind. lHe thought he had served his apprentice Vship and that there wvere younger mem bers of the bar who could make just as #able a dlefense. Jardge Bellinger insisted that Mr. Schumpert act,, and Mr. Schumpert ~Otsented. \fr Blease, coming into court, asked t'e excused also for the reason that $had been currently reported that he ~dasked to be appointed. Jdge Bellinger said it gave him pleasure to state that no such request had been made to him. Mr. Blease said he had other and persotnal reasons and must dlecline and Mr. lilease was excused. Mr. F. H..Dominick was appointedl by the Court, and consented to serve. Strother was then arraigned. He hstgned intently to the reading of the In4ietrnent, and replied "Not Guilty." Asked if he was ready for trial, he r that he was not. r.M Schumport askedl that the trial bplaced for Thursday, at 11 o'clock ~nd it was so ordered.

The State of Sunday had the follow ing to say of the game it Columbia on - Saturday afternoon between the New berry College boys and the team of the South Carolina College: A crowd of the most ' enthusiastic fans witnessed a game of baseball yes terday at the college park, of a quality not often seen in Columbia. For nine long innings Carolina and Newberry battled for victory in a close-fought game resplendent with spectacular plays and exciting moments. The sons of the historic old university finally won, but it was not until after their strength had been tested to' the 'utmost, by opponents as worthy of victory as themselves. "Never saw a better amateur game in my life, and I've seen some great teams play," said one man as he left the park, and his sentiment was echoed by a hundred others. Hard and fast from start to finish, the game delighted those who saw it beyond measure. During the first inning neither side was able to score, but when Carolina came to the bat in the first part of the second inning a man clad in garnet and black raced around the bases at inter vals, finally crossing the home plate through an error by the boys from the up-country. Newberry failed to score, but in the third inning Carolina sent two more men in. Things moved along at an even pace until in the last half of the fourth act of the drama Coleman came to the bat for Newberry and laced the ball far out into right field for three bags. Mer chant's hit sent Coleman in, but the batter was sent to the bench. With Harms and Riser on bases, Fulmer hammered the leather way out over Davis' head, and by the time the dust had cleared away he had advanced to third. Cabiness next up, went out, but sent Fulmer in. Though Carolina again failed to dot the score book when * she came to bat, Newberry, by a succession of errors on the part of her opponents, placed five runs to her credit on the official log. The rooters for the home team were very much distressed, and the view to them had assumed an ultramarine hue, while the denizens from the up-country were riotous in their exhiliration. In the sixth inning Wilcox followed Davis' three-bagger with a timely hit and forced the little leftfielder across the rubber at a rattling pace. The local lads worked with a will, but neither they nor their adversaries were able to do more than make the game interesting to the spectators until the beginning of the eighth inning, when Carolina took the stick in hand. Davis' bunt helped Malloy to cross the plate, the batter reaching first base by beating the ball and finally scoring. Smith and 3elser made good with their hits, and Gunter filled the remaining base after being hit by a pitched ball. With three men on bases Martin put all his power into his swing, and his long hit to left field added three to the score. The odds were now in Carolina's fa vor, by this stroke of luck or hard work; call it what you will. -But, alas, the boys from "Newberry" managed to tie the score by one run. The excitement was intense for the next inning, but Wilcox, always in at the critical mo ment, saved the day by careful work. The visitors were desperate, and it seemed as if they would score. With two men out and two on bases, the bat ter hit to Gilland and his assist to Gun ter ended the game amid a whirlwind of cheers and applause. Both pitchers were in beautiful form, Gilland striking out 5 men and Simpson 10. Simpson is cool and has great con trol. Last summer wvhen he played here with the Newberry team his work wvas much commented upon. Cabaniss, wvho caught him, is a faithful wvorker and an excellent man at the bat. For Carolina Davis wvas p)erhaps the star. His work, as usual, wvas far out of the ordinary. Gunter, Malloy and Aiken played good ball, and Capt. Smith was at his best. During the game, ho0w-. ever, he lost his temper (several times. Mr. Mattison, the ump)ire, is a new comer in that cap)acity. His judgment is, however, excellent, and yesterday he gave perfect satisfaction. The score in detail follows: SOUTH CAROLINA AB. R. BHI. PO, A. E.

A year ar two later, a neighbor built a house and painted it lead and oil. The neighbor's house was repainted twice in the same- time. This looks as if the neighbor's house wvas painted three times in eight or nine years, andl McGown's once in teni years. We are not qjuite sure-~ we tell the tale as it comes to us. SIt is enough to say thamt D)evoe Lead and 'Zinc lasts twice as long as lead and oil alone. The reason is: white lead is soft and chalks off; zinc is hard; and, when thoroughly ground into the lead, p)revents its chalkig aind makes it Smore durable. Yours truly, F". W. D)evoe & Co., New York. P. S. --Newhberry H hardware Company sells nur1 n)aint IN NEWBERRY'S WAKE. Another Town In The State Which Will Follow Mayor Earhardt's Lead In Cleansing. That the successful efforts of the present city administration to rid New-. berry of disorderly places has been watched with interest throughout the State is shown by the following letter, directed to Mayor Earhardt by the Mayor of a sister town: "Hon. Mayor Newberry, "Dear Sir: I saw by either the Co lumbia or Charleston papers that you had rid your city of houses of ill-fame. I am up against the same thing here. We have had no ordinance on the sub ject, but one was introduced at our las meeting, but according to our rules it takes three readings to pass it. I would appreciate it very much sif you would send me a copy of your ordinance on the subject and also write me fully how you handled the matter, and if you had much trouble, and if you have rid your community of them, both white and black. I would be glad to reciprocate at any time, and hope to hear from you fully early next week. Thanking you in advance, I remain.' Mayor Earhardt's success in this mat ter was made possible by his determina tion and the fact that he had a police force thoroughly in sympathy with him and with the movement. It is a problem which has ever con fronted towns of the size of Newberry and larger, and one which few have been able to solve. It is a matter of congratulation that Newberry's success has inspired sister cities to determined efforts. On The Local Diamond. Manager Setzler, of the Newberry College baseball team, has arranged the following games to be played on the local diamond: Newberry vs. Hlomer, April 9th. Newberry vs. Furman University, Greenville, April 14th. Newberty vs. Carolina, Columbia, April 30th. Newberry vs. Clemson, May -1th or 6th. Newberry vs College of Charleston, May 5th. The visiting teams are the strongest in the state and among the strongest in the south. The Newberry boys proved the quality of the stuff of which they are made in the game with Caro lina in Columbia on Saturday afternoon, and exciting games are expecte(l on all of the above dates. "Tiger" Captured at Chappelks. Constable Perry followed a box of liquor marked ''lem y Payne" to Chap pells on Saturday. When box reached Chappells he found no one of that name there to claim it, Pay ne being a negro who had left some four months ago and is now in Columbia. The box was seized. It contained five gallons of whiskey. "Social Newberry." Beginning with this issue The IIer ald and News wvill once each wveek dlevote the fourth p)age to the ladies and society.

Biaseballists 1mn Hard Luck. Some~ time ago, about the beginning of th bc1 aseball season, an epidemic of nmmps struck the (c01lege aind played havoc wvith the baseball team. In the first game of the season it was nec essary to lput in a number of sublstituites losing to the college tIme first game. None disheartened, however, the boys kept wvorkinmg and( have put1 into the field a team which on Sat urday forced itself int.o puim Ih notice as one of the strongest. ini t lie St ate. Thme boys aie now uipagainst it. again. Me asles have pult in an applearance and claimed as a first victim a member of team. It is hard luck, but even with the dlitlicuilties uinder whic~h the teamii has labored and is st ill laborinmg, it. will be heard from during the seaLson and it is believed will make a record (of which the college and the city may b h ou(l Master's Sales.
