William Dickson Steals Black Stal lion and Rock Hill Buggy Prom R. J. Wells, of Privateer.

Mr. Wells came on to the city and had a warrant issued, which he placed in the bands of Sheriff Piereon. Mayesville, Bisbopville, Providence aod ail intermediate pointa hav ing telephone connection were notified to be oo the lookoot for the bor e thief, and tele grams were sent to Camden, Wedgefield aod other places.

Anxious tor Brancn Line From Seaboard Air Lina to Sumter. Bishopville, Aug. 28 -The suggestion made by the Sunder I:cm in regard to a branch road from the Seaboard Air Line via Bisbopville to Sumter me.ta wiih geceral approoation. Such a road would cover a large territory of floe farming country, and to a great extent devoid of railroad facilities. It would give the merchants of this place direct communication with the great markets of the north and northwest, aod put the peo ple of this section in closer coonectioa wrib the State capital and with our own county seat. It is hoped that strenuous efforts will be made by the business men of Sumter and Bisbopville to secure this road. The schedule upon our little road here bas been so incon venient to the traveling public for the past year tbat but few persons going abroad make use of it. For instance, one wisbiog to go north to Baltimore or Kew York must ride 16 miles in private conveyance in order to get on the main line of railroad. If yon wish to spend one day in Sumter you must go to Elliott's IC miles distant to take the train. Any one taking ibe cars at Bisbop ville must make up their minds to spend two nights and a day io Sumter if they expect to transact any business. For these reasoos a large majority ef the people bave adopted the old plan of 20 years ago and go through the country 22 miles by private conveyance to Sumter. The telephone wire bas been placed in posi tion acd we now have connection with the outside worid Two thoroughbred blood bounds have been bought by private parties at this place. They arrived safely on Saturday. They are said to be well trained, and their qualities for running down thieves and other rascals will be tested in a sbort time. A Defiant Rapist at Large. Information was received at this office about five weeksjago that oce John Quincey Corbin, a white man, about fifty jeers oid, of the Springhill neighborhood bad sometitre in June committed rape on the person of a negro giri, about ten or twelve year3 old, and that OD the affidavit of thc mo;b?r of the girl, a warrant had been issued by Macistrate L R Jennings for the arrest of Corbin. At the rfq^.est of parties who hoped to have Corbin arrested immediately no mention was mads of the crime, a3 it wa9 feared that additional publicity through the newspapers might cmu e Corbitt to flee the county. Is was stated at the time that Corbin bad taken to the woods, wa3 heavily armed and defied arrest. Since that time Magistrate Jennings has made three trips to Spring Hill for the purpose of arresting Corbitt, but bas never been able to find him. Today be turned the warrant over to the sheriff, aod it now becomes the duty of the sheriff to execute the warrant. There seems to be no questien of tbe guilt of Corbitt, and be should be arrested if it takes a posse to accomplish it. CUBAN 'o l. cures Cuts, Burns, Bruises, Rheuma f t.Q tism and Sores.
