In consequence of complaint hav? ing been made by Secretary E. I. Reardon, of the Chamber of Com? merce, relative to the inefficiency of labor employed at the A. C. L. freight depot, an investigation of the condi? tions existing here was ordered by General Freight Agent A. W. Ander? son. Charles L. Williamson. The announcement Saturday after? noon of the death of Capt. Charles L.

The funeral services were held at 4 o'clock p. m. Monday at Rembert's church. Quite a large number of his friends from this city attended the services.

HIS BACK BROKEX. A Terrible Accident to Robert Col? clough--^-He Has Lost Use of Low? er Limbs and Will Most Likely Die. Robert Colclough, who has been driving the city's street sprinkler for several years and who has been one ot the best hands in the employ of the city, met with what may prove a fatal accident Monday morning. . The sprinkler is kept under a shed in the rear of the opera house and Robert was preparing to get out on the street early and sprinkle before the wagons from the country com? menced to come into the city. He was on the high seat of the sprinkler, and before he could get his hands on the lines, the mules started off, and Robert was pinioned between the seat and the roof of the shed. The ani? mals were stopped by another street hand, who witnessed the accident, ana when the poor fellow was removed from his high seat he was suffering intensely. ( Dr. ^rchie China was summonded to his assistance and discovered that his back was broken. Colclough had even then lost the use of his lower limbs; he was insensible to any pain from his waist down, and could not feel the pricking of a pin. The chances for his recovery ar? very smalL In fact, no one looks for him to get well, and it is better so, for even if he does recover he will be a helpless invalid for life. Street Commissioner White spoke with great regret of the accident, and said that it was not often that he has under' his supervision such an excel? lent hand as Robert Colclough. FIFTY DOLLARS EACH. Violators of ti e Cess Pool Ordinance Before the Recorder. Messrs. Ebbie Wells and T. C.

Defendants were represented by Harmon D. Moise, ESQ. Both ad? mitted the facts as to digging and construction of the cess pool, and a fine of $50 each was imposed by the recorder. Both cases have been ap? pealed. These make the third case under appeal for violation of the or? dinance forbidding digging of cess pools within one-half of one mile of the water works station. It is said lhere are more to follow. EXFORCE THE LAW. I - The Sumter Ministerial Association Speaks Plainly to City Council.
