Jim Russell, the young man from the Mechanicsville neigh borhood who was sentenced to the penitentiary some years ago for cow stealing, but was subse quently pardoned by Governor Tillman, is again in trouble, and again about a cow. Mr. W. D. Fountain lost a fine cow some days ago, and, accompanied by Mr. Chap Milling, he traced it toCheraw, where he found it in the possession of Russell, who was trying to sell it for $11.00. Russell was arrested, and Mr. Fountain put him on the train to bring him to Darlington, Mr. Milling returning in his buggy. After the train had gone some distance, Russell jumpod from it while it was in motion, and took to the woods. Mr. Foun tain got off, too, and started after him; Mr. Milling happen ing to drive up about that time, between them they succeeded in rearresting Russell, though he resisted vigorously, and h<*d to be handled roughly before any thing could be done with him. He is now safe in jail. nges went the C. 8. & N. on Monday. The train go ing north now passes here at 8. 37 P. M. and the one going south at 9.50 A. M. Connect ion is made both ways with the S.A.

On Saturday last quite a ser ious accident happened at the saw-mill of Mr. P. C. Beck, about a mile from town near the Society Hill road. It seems that the tops of the bolts on the boiler had become worn from rust, and the pressure of the boiler tore them through its side causing it to burst nearly in two about the middle, and creating a terrific explosion. Mr. Beck was thrown about twenty feetbutwas unhurt. Jake Swinton, the colored fireman, was forced by the steam through an adjoining door, which was closed at the time, and he was fearfully scalded, though Dr. Lunney, who is attending him, thinks he will recover. The roof of the building was torn to pieces, the shingles being scat tered far and wide, while some of the bolts were thrown against the gin-house a hundred feet away, and going clear through the weather-boarding, were im bedded in the other side of the building. The boiler was blown on top of the engine, both of them Doing completely wrecked The loss to Mr. Beck will be at least $500. The injured colored man is suffering most intensely, the skin having been almost completely scalded off his head, arms and body. The Democratic Primary.

The commencement exerci ses of the Habron High School, which took place on the 29th inst., were very interesting, and were largely atttended. The following programme: annual debate; query, “Resolved, That the present ministerial support of the protestant church is not in keeping with that of other professions;” affirmative, A. E. Pnvett and J. W. Stucky; neg ative. A. J. Bruce and Z. M. Skinner; address before the lite rary Society by the Hon. J. M. Johnson, ot Marion; commence ment sermon by the Rev. J. Walter Daniel, of Sumter. The young men of the school were complimented for their quiet, unassuming manner in which they delivered their speeches. Mr. Johnson’s ad dress and the Rev. Mr. Daniel’s sermon deserve the highest praise, and from the time of their discourses one might have thought that they had conferred with each other. Dinner was had on the grounds, and a table of nearly two hundred feet was literally* coverd with good things. A meeting of the trustees and patrons of the school was held in the afternoon, and they elect ed Mr. P. P. Berthea teacher for the next term. Mr Bethea has managed the school very successfully, and he says that he is now prepared to do even better work another year. Twenty-fivp energetic men wanted at once; light work and good pay; “the early bird catches the worm”; don’t fail to apply at once to J. H. Moore, Darling ton, 9:C. *' ‘ T 2 C Flo Th« Spartanburg Drill. In the military contest at Spartanburg last week the Dar lington Guards won the first prize of $400 in gold. A num ber of companies, (among them the Campell Light Infantry, of Washington, D. C.,) had some idea of entering the drill when they left heme, but* changed their minds, for some reason or other, before the contest actual ly began, the result being that the only ones actually compet ing were those from Darlington, Greenville and Spartanburg. The Greenville company put up an excellent drill. They had six Citadel Cadets in ranks, and for ten days previous to the con test, they had been spending the night in their armory and drilling four times a day under the instruction of a United States Army officer recently S aduated from West Point. In e individual drill in the man ual of arms, the last three men who remained in line were Bond, of the Greenville Guards, and Howard Norment ana Cox, of the Darlington Guards. The judges finally awarded the prize to Bond. The Darlington Guards re turned home on Friday night. They were met at the depot on their arrival by a large crowd of people, who escorted them to the armory, where a stirring address of welcome was made by E. Keith Dargan Esq. The Guards met with very kind treatment at the hands of the people of Spartanburg, and the trip was a most enjoyable one in every respect, but what they en joyed most of all was the re ception they met with from their own people on their return home. Then was it that they began really to appreciate for the first time that their labor of the past five weeks had not been in vain. "The Mother of the Confederacy.” [Atlanta Constitution.] Mbmphis, Tenn., June 28.— The death of Mrs. Sallie Chap man Gordon-Law, which oc curred here today, removes a woman who a third of a centu- ago was regarded as t h e iorence Nightingale of the southern army, and who has since been revered by all veter ans as the mother of the confed eracy. To her has been paid honors higher than those ever conferred upon any other wo man in America. She died aged 89 years. She was born in Wilkes County, North Carolina. Her father was Chapman Gor don, a revolutionary soldier un- derGeneralsMarion and Sumter. She married Dr. John S. Law, who was born in Liberty county Georgia. They settled at Forsyth, Ga. In the thirties they moved to Tennessee. In 1850 Mrs. Law moved toMemphis, her husband having died at Columbia, Tenn When the war broke out be tween the states, over thirty of her near kinsmen went into the southern army and when she had given her son to the cause she entered into the strife in a womanly way herself. She or ganized hospitals, she went into the field and her influence was felt imihe camp and nerved the men to greater deeds on battle fields. Had she been a man she would have been another war rior of the Gordon race to lead charging columns into the very jaws of death. Her son passed through the war and is now Rev. Dr. John G. Law, of Dar lington, S. C. Others of her relatives who were in the con federate armies are her brother, Gen. G. W. Gordon, of Colum bia, Tenn.; her nephew, Gen. J. B. Gordon, senator from Geor S a; her nephew, Maj .Augustus ordon,who was killed atChan- cellorsville, while leading a charge; Gen. J. B. Gordon, a cousin, who was killed at Bran dy Station, near Richmond. It was in organizing hospiti- talsand providing clothing and food for half naked and famish ing soldiers in the field that she acquired widest fame and a warm niche in the heart of ev ery confederate veteran. Her first labors were here in Mem phis. During the first year she was at the head of the ladies of this city, who established the SouthernMothers’ hospital here. This organization, with Mrs. Law at the head, has been kept up till this day, but only seven members out of the original hundreds now survive. She carried clothing up intoKentuc- ky and from an eminence watched her non fight ing in the battle of Belmont. When the federal troops occu pied this territory she was o- bliged to cease her labors here, but she went abroad over the south wherever there was a southern soldier in need. A hospital was named for her at LaGrange, La. She went to Columbus, Ga., and from the ladies there collected needed supplies, which she carried to the suffering troops at Dalton. Gen. Joseph E. Johnston order ed a sham battle and a grand parade of 30,000 bronzed and tattered troops to honor her and her iqission. Seven children and a few grandchildren survive her. Her funeral will be attend ed by all the veterans in these parte. ** ^ ^ THE COUNTY NEWS. FROM ALL SECTIONS AS TOLD BY OUR CORRESPONDENTS. LAMAR. Newbold, the famous detec tive, was in town recently. Mrs. S. L. Grier, of Sumter, is spending a time at the Mims Hotel. Col. J. Gary Watts inspected the local military company on the 27th ult. The tobacco crop of this sec tion is very fine. Some of the barns have been cured. Mrs. Florence Douglas, of Cheraw, is visiting her brother, Dr. J. A. Cole, of this place. Miss Snow Ward, of Darling ton, was on a visit recently to Miss Emma Ham, of this place. Mr. E. L. Gray went to Col umbia on Monday to attend a meeting of the State Executive Committee of the Reform par ty- The “B. R. T.” Guards, of this place, extend to the Dar lington Guards their most hear ty congratulations upon cap turing the first prize at the competitive drill at Spartan burg last week. Some of the fair ladies of Car ter’s Cross roads came out to see the militia company drill on Saturday. The boys did so well on account of their presence that Capt. Willeford and his of ficers hope they will come again. We mentioned recently in our items from this place that Mr. S. C. Starr had taken out a pat ent on a car-coupler which he had invented. We desire to make a slight correction in re gard to this matter. Mr. J. H. Taylor and Mr. Starr together invented the car-coupler. They have been working on it for the past two years, and in our opin ion it is going to be a great suc cess, in-as-much as it is a self coupler to any other automatic coupler. It has been examined by experienced mechanics, and prounounced a fine thing. The young people of this com munity enjoyed a very pleasant sociable at the residence of Mr. M. V. DuBose on the evening of June 27th. The following young ladies and gentlemen were present: Misses Anna Fields, Nora Fields, Emma Ham, Daisy Stucky, Lula Pitts, Ada Conner, Ada Boykin, Jen nie Odom, Geneva Mims, Snow Ward, Maud Atkinson, Abbey Murray; and Messrs. C. E. Du Bose, E. B. Turner, T. D. Fox- worth, C. M. Odom, S. B. Du Bose, J. R. Jowers, B. C. Pitts, P. V. Mims, B. F. Starr, W. K. Gray, L. P. Carter, G. D. Car ter, G. W. Stith and R. F. Wil leford. Prof. A. J. A. Perritt’s school exhibition at Newman Swamp on the evening of June 27th would have been a grand sue • cess had it not been for the weather interfering. A large crowd had gathered, probably eight hundred persons in all. Before the recitations were half through, the rain began to pour down, and the crowd was forced to seek refuge in the church and school house. The professor, seeing that it would be impossi ble to continue the exercises, made an announcement to the crowd to that effect, and they all made their way home through the rain as hard as they could. We attended the recent cam paign meeting in this County, which was held at Oats. There were about two thousand people present, and the day passed off quietly, nothing of a sensation al nature occurring. The Re formers express themselves as not being pleased with the man ner in which Senator Evans and Comptroller-General Ellerbe are indulging in silly personalities. W bile the meeting was a com plete Tillman success, the peo ple say that national issues were not discussed to their satisfac tion by the senatorial candi dates. Ellerbe is gaining some f round at the expense of Evans, indal has some following. CYPRESS. Mr. Sidney Josey is at home from the Citadel. A new post office has been established at Alcott, with Mr. E. H. Hearon as postmaster. A thief entered the Methodist Church at this place recently, and made way w ith a consider able portion of the church prop erty. A liberal reward will be paid for the apprenension of the felon. Mr. J. H. Huggins is the champion beet grower of this section. He gathered one a few days ago that measured 221 inches around and wejghed 51 pounds. How’s that for beets? We were pleased to see in the papers last week that the Dar lington Guards were the victors in the competitive drill at Spar tanburg. though we were satis fied before they went that they would walk off with the first F irize, as we felt that they rich- y deserved it. Mr. J. Boyd DuBose, of this place, and Miss Bell Newsom, of Clydd, were married on July 3, at ten o’clock in the morning. The day following Mr. J. W. Du Bose. the father of the groom, gave an entertainment at his residence in honor of the couple. A large number of friends were present to tender their congrat ulations. TIMMONSVILLE. Mr. Charles Culpepper has re turned from Florida. Mr. J. W. Ragsdale, of Dar lington, spent Sunday here. Mr. Jessie E. Keith, a recent graduate of the Citadel, is at home. Mr. R E. Halford, who went to the Hot Springs of Arkansas in May, has returned home. Mrs. E. A. Rollins has return ed home from a four months trip to the “land of Flowers.” Newbold, the detective, ac companied by John Power, of Florence, has been hanging around here for some time. Mr. Joseph Downing and Mr. Dell, of Traxler’t, Florida, and Mr. James Powers, of Jackson ville, are visiting the family of Mr. G. C. McEachern. Rev. J. H. Dixon, pastor of the Presbyterian Church at Florence, preached an interest ing sermon at the Methodist church here on Sunday night. The corn and cotton crops in this section never looked better for this season of the year. It is to be hoped that the present prospect will continue until the crop matures. JASPER. Smilie Vaughn has the finest crop in the community of Jas per. Evangelist Anderson is con ducting a meeting at the Ander son School house. A protracted meetingwillcom mence on the third Sunday in this month at Lake Swamp. Mrs. Amanda Ham and Mrs. Jane Galloway are both very ill Dr. J. P. Parrott is attending t li em. Mr. I. S. Lloyd has im proved somewhat. We are having plenty of rain now, and crops are fiourishing, though cotton on light, sandy lands shows a yellow cast on account of the continued show ers. Tobacco is doing well. We are growing a variety called “long leaf gooch”, which is said to be a great favorite in Virginia. It is superior to any we have seen since we com menced the tobacco culture in 1892. Some leaves are over twenty-four inches long and fourteen inches wide. RIVERDALE. Miss Eliza Dargan has re turned from a pleasant visit to relatives in Florence County. Miss Hannah Byrd is at home from All Healing, N. C., where she has been attending school Her name is among the grad uates. Crops in this section are un usually fine. The recent good seasons have about made the corn, and the cotton weed is large, but we can’t yet tell how it will be fruited. This corre spondent has seen very little of the tobacco farms. Mr. J. M. Pass has some of the finest we have seen, but there may be others equally as good. NETTLES’S MILL. The tobacco crops in this sec tion are fairly good. Mr. H. K. Rogers has an un usually fine cotton crop. Mr. G. W. McLeod commenc ed a singing-school at Bethle hem recently. Rev. J. H. Kelley preached at the residedee of Mrs. Lydia Rogers on Sunday night. Parts of some of our crops are overflowed with water, and it looks, at this writing, as if there is to be even more rain y6t. The -Reformer*” Campaign.
