DROWNED IN LYNCH'S RIVER. Sad Accident Whereby Young Lad Lost His Life. I Scranton, July 16:?Frank Kennedy, son fif Mr G \V Kennedy, was drowned in Lynch's river near Bass's bridge yesterday while in bathing with several other boys. Frank could ^ not swim, so \\a> using a boat to cross tine deep piaces. Falling from ( the boat he was earned down so i rapidly that the other boys were unable to save him. There was some difficulty in finding the body, which had floated a considerable distance - down the stream. AN OLD STORY. Common Fate of New Paper Started to Break Down Old One. ^ The Colleton News has suspended, i the former editor and manager, J E Moore, having sold his interest to, Claude A Graves, now connected! I with the Press and Standard. The; death of the News is no surprise to ! us. as we predicted that it would fail,for the reason that it was established as a political paper, the idea of its promoters being to revenge themselves on Editor Smoak, of the News and Standard. Of course we regret 'f any one lost money, but the fate of the News will do as a peg to hang a few remarks on as to the establishing of newspapers. Those politicians who want to start news-; papers because they cannot controlj those already printed should re- i member that newspaper publishingj is a business enterprise just as any- j thing else, and there is no use to j attempt to kill out an established j paper. You will not succeed in the first place, and then the principle is wrong. When you start to tear down one enterprise to build up another, you are likely to fail, and this has been abundantly demonstrated in the business of newspaper publishing.?Bamberg Herald.
