. NEGRO RUNS AMUCK.
EicItiDQ Chase Along Main Street
Last Thursday.
Some excitement was occasioned
last Thursday afternoon by
the efforts to arrest a negro
named Maxwell Rodgers who
hailed from the Greelyville sec
uuu. xu a. scincwcui v/x uxo
account at F C Thomas' stables
he became very insolent and
invited the manager, Mr A 0
Hudson, outside. Mr Hudson
went and the negro assaulted
him and took leg bail. Marshal
Anderson immediately gave
chase and failing to overtake
the fugitive, tired several shots
to intimidate him. The negro
kept on up Main street, but
meantime several young men
followed him on horseback and
in buggies and it was but a
short while when he was overhauled
and brought back to
town. At the hearing before
the intendant the negro was
lined $10.00, which he paid, but
meantime, we understand he,
has been indicted for assault and
battery and will have to answer
the charge before the court of
general sessions.

HortiQ Brick Hill.
Thursday, the 18th inst., Jimmie
Fulton, a twelve-year-old
negro employed at uapt, runits,
brick mill near town, was
caught in a belt and drawn into
a cog-wheel, causing his arm to
be broken in two places. He
was at once brought to Drs Gamble
and Jacobs and the arm set.
While the hurt is a pretty severe
one at last accounts the
boy was doing well and will
probably recover.
The accident, we learn, was
due to the boy's own carelessness,
as his work about the mill
does not require him to come in
cantact with the machinery,
withwhich he was pranking
with when caught in the belt.

was 425 feet long and held 27,000
