CRUSHED BY CARS.
Yard Conductor Alderman Fell Under
tile Train and Was Killed.
A. S. Alderman, a very popular
young Coast Line yard conductor, was
killed at the transfer yard this
morning by the train running over
him while shifting. No one saw the
accident the switchman was some little
distance away, looking after the
switch, the brakeman was about two
cars off putting on the brake of a car
that was to be cut off and these were
the only men near at the time. The
tragedy occurred about 4 o'clock in
the morning. It is supposed that Con?
ductor Alderman went between the
cars tb open the knuckle of coupler
and that his foot caught in the guard
rail and he was thrown beneath the
' cars. His outcry was heard by the two
J men near and the engineer. Mr. Row?
ell was signaled to stop, so that only
one car had passed over the body, but
it was frightfully lacerated..
- As soon as possible the authorities
of the road had the body taken up and
carried to Waters* undertaking estab?
lishment where it was prepared for
burial and where an inquest was held
this morning by the coroner.
. Mr.' Alderman has been a resident
of Florence ajbout five or six years, he
was a naive of Rose Hill, N. C., and
was about 30 years of age. He had
been in the service of the Coast Line
for a number of years and was a faith?
ful and earnest employee. He was a
member of the Brotherhood of Rail?
way Trainmen and of the Order of
Railway Conductors. He was mar?
ried about three years ago to Miss
Maggie Bradham of Sumter and they
have one child, little Albert.
The tragedy is a very sad one, and
his wife, who was preparing the morn?
ing meal for him at home when the
shock of the news was received, has
the sympathy of ^ the whole commun
nity.-Florence Times, April S.

The Civic League should try its per?

Line officials to induce them to beau?

railroad should do and that many
railway systems take pride in doing
without urging from outside, but as
the A. C. L. has heretofore done very
little in this way the Civic League
might succeed if they will do a little
missionary work on this line.
Stomach and Liver Trouble Cured.
?Orine Laxative Fruit Syrup cures
stomach and liver trouble as it aids
digestion, and stimulates the liver and
bowels without irritating these organs
like pills and ordinary cathartics. It

The next improvement in the fire
department of Sumter should be the
substitution of automobile hose wag?

The change would result in a saving

the cost of gasoline for two hose wag?
ons would be small in comparison.

THE ELLIOTT HERBARIUM.
Valuable Work Found by Prof. Rea of
the Charleston Museum, While Ex?
amining Rubbish.
Charleston, March 30.-While ex-,
amining rubbish in the basement of
the library building, preparatory to
destroying lt, Prof P. M. Rea, direc?
tor of the museum, discovered volume
21 of the Elliot herbarium, which is
thought to be the last volume of this
famous plant collection.
The finding of the volume, whose
authenticity is beyond question, is re?
garded as one of the most fortunate
discoveries in the world of science in
recent years, completing, as it does,
the Elliot hebarium. Botanists all over
the world will rejoice in the announce?
ment of the finding of this missing
volume, which narrowly escaped de?
struction by fire. The College of
Charleston owns 20 volumes, which
have often been consulted by expert
botanists and scholars from many
seats of learning and institutions and
the missing number will add to the in?
terest of the collection. The Biltmore
botanists have recently been lending
Prof. Rea assistance in his work of pre?
serving these valuable contributions to
science and a report was to be printed
by the Biltmore botanists on the her?
barium, which will now be delayed by
the finding of the missing volume,
which will also be reviewed in the ar?
ticle to be published.
Several cultured citizens of Charles?
ton expressed themselves in the heart?
iest way today upon learning of the
unearthing of the missing volume, and
Prof. Rea was warmly congratulated
upon his find.

A Correction.
To the Editor: x
The undersigned noticed a few days
ago, in an article copied from The
News and Courier relating to the late
Mrs. Mary Scrimgeour Whittaker, In
which it stated that she had survived
nine (9) brothers and sisters of which
she was the oldest; this, however, is
a mistake, as we are blessed to have
still with us the last of that illustrious
generation of the Furman family
Miss Eliza Furman-who, .in her 78th
year, is not much blessed with this
world's goods, but has that which is
above riches, a heart full of love and a
spirit of kindness to all.
She has the honor of being a sister
to the late Dr. Furman, of which she
is justly proud.
However, a loving nephew cannot
bear to see it in print that she is dead
without making haste to correct same.
We hate to think of thc time when
it will be possible for such a statement
to pass uncorrected.
Her main labor of love consisted of
assisting in raising three generations
of nephews and nieces, all who love
and revere her.
A desire to honor where it will
reach the ears of this loved one
prompts this article from
A Nephew.

REFUSES DISPENSARY PROFITS.
Trustees of Willis School District in
. Marlboro County Decline to Receive
Whiskey Money.
- Bennettsville, April 4.-One. of the
school districts in this county has ab?
solutely refused to receive and through
the trustees, and by a vote of the
patrons, rejected the public funds due
them accruing from the dispensary for
sale of liquor. The question has been
discussed in that section for a long
time, which ultimately terminated as
above stated.
It is Willis school district which has
decided not to accept any more of the
dispensary money for the schools in
that district. The trustees took a
vote on the proposition last Friday
and decided by a majority of two not
to accept any more of the dispensary
school money. Any deficiency will be
made up voluntarily by the eight trus?
tees who voted in favor of the idea.
The Game Act.
We reproduce the following extract
from the Columbia Record as throw?
ing more light on the misunderstand?
ing that seems to exist in regard to
the new game law. It will be clearly
seen from the act that the season be?
gan the first of March:
A party of about fifty Columbia
sportsmen have organized to make a
trip to Fort Motte this week to shoot
birds, apparently unmindful of the
fact that the last legislature amended
the game law so as to provide for a
closed season from the 1st of March
instead of from the 1st of April, as
heretofore. A similar misunder?
standing seems to prevail throughout
the State. A State officer's secretary
received an invitation today from a
Yorkville party to go out for a hunt
next week, "before the season closes,"
but he wired his regrets, saying the
season had already closed.
Now Lexington is exempted so as to
have its closed season begin the 1st of
April. Columbians may therefore,
cross the Congaree and hunt to their
heart's content until the 1st of next
month.
The new law provides:
"It shall not be lawful for any per?
son in this State between the 1st day
of March and the 15th day of Novem?
ber, except in the counties of Beau?
fort, Hampton, Dorchester, Co?leton,
Charleston, Barnwell, Berkeley, Aiken,
Oconee. Lexigton, Fairfield, Saluda,
.Georgetown and Clarendon, wherein
the time shall be between the 1st day
of April and the first day of Novem?
ber in any year hereafter, to catch,
kill, or injure, or to pursue w:th such
intent, any wild turkey, partridge,
quail, woodcock, Mongolian or other
pheasant, or at any time within five
years from March the first, 1906, to
sell, offer, or expose for sale, ship or
export for sale, or to pot hunt, net,
trap, or by firelight to catch, kill or
injure, or to pursue with such intent,
any of the birds named in this section;
nor shall any person or persons de?
stroy or rob the nests of any said birds.
And any person so doing shall be
deemed guilty of a misdemeanor, and
upon conviction thereof shall be fined
not more than twenty dollars or be
imprisoned not more than thirty days.
Provided, that nothing in this act
shall prevent the importation for
sale of any said birds. Provided,
further. That the handling, posses?
sion, control or ownership of any of
the said birds, sold, offered or exposed
for sale, or shipped or exported, shall
be prima facie evidence of a violation
of this act, and the burden of proof
shall be upon any person so handling,
posessing, controlling or owning of
the said birds, to show that they were
imported from another state or terri?
tory."
