HARPERS HAPPENINGS, Another Assault Case in Georgetown Co.??Moody Correspondent Disputed.! I Harpers, July 18:--Your scribe, P has been asked In* the manager of jf. the Spring < ul!y baseball team to ; P correct the statement made by your ] Moody correspondent in reference to1 0 " . I >a game <>f ball played between Spring; ' Cully and Choppee, Your conv-j spun dent stated that the game was between Moody and Choppee. 1 am not concerned,but am ask<-d to make j rho it iranient bv Mr V K Keatrill.! manager of I he Spring Gully team, j 1 aui glad to repott tine rains all over this part of the lower section of 1 Williamsburg county, ^4, It lias been leported here that an. j other assault was committed on a young lady from Georgetown at Mu well's Inlet but a few miles from where a similar crime occurred only about JO days ago bv the negro denkins, who will be tried and seni fenced on July 27. It seems that j our law-makers will have to devise some other kiud of punishment besides hanging before this crime will ever stop. What will our people do to protect our loved ones from the vengeance of these negro brutes? This awful crime has become more frequent and is now right at home almost every week. On last Tuesdav, the 13th inst, the prohibition elenieut gave a picnic here and had several speakers present who made addresses on the subject of prohibition. But I am sorry to say that we saw quite a number of men here that day who were under the influence of whisky. This is a shame to our community. It seems that some people lutend to hang on ju to their rum if they lose their lives > and sacrifice their families and all ^self-respect. We hope to see things different after August 17. Subscriber. p*" Note?Concerning the conflicting statements regarding the game of ball between Chop pee and Moody or Spring Gully, we of course know nothing personally. When a correspondent reports a news item having the semblance of t?*uth we publish rat as a news item. To undertake to verify every little uews paragraph sent in by out-of-town correspondents won Id require a force of employees to do nothing else. We hope, r-? however, that all correspondents will verify every item of news sent to this paper. Unless you know it to be absolutely true, we don't want it.?Ed The Record. Suttons] Sittings, ? - ..

After a very bountiful dinner y- and talks on prohibition, Miss j Moore of North Carolina gave a t - very interesting talk on prohibition. The lectures were excellent and greatlj enjoyed by all, and we hope they will re^ suit in much good for the cause 'of prohibition in Williamsburg county.
