with killing .Jim Hicks at the old block

several months ago. Sinco his eaptmq^
? Wakefild has been confined iu the county
jail atiWrtyiiesville, pending certain
proceedings brought by his attorneys to
pretjent the prisoner from being brought
to tlds State for trial.
Qn the trip to Wuynesville, Sheriff
; Gilreath was accompanied by Sheriff
White of Sparlacburg. The two ofilc?rs
went prepare?l to take no chances with
their prisoner escaping. They recalled
the #act that just after \Vakolleld had
been first arrested, lie b-oke away from
i two officers who were taking hint t > j ?il
and succeeded in making go.ul his cscai^,
It was not until feverul days later thai
h8 was recapt ured.
Again on Wednesday morning only a
( few hours before the arrival of the South
Carolina olficers, the prisoners in the
Haywood County jail, among whom was
i WakeU'ild, mule a daring ami almost
* successful attempt to break j til. Tiieie
\ were only three prisoners in the jail a*
the time, and all were confined in the
9 same cage constructed of si eel.

Jiff the jail," said the Wavnesvillo Couri If,
"Sheriff Nolan lias been making the
fcnud of inspection twice every night.
? worn 12 to 1 o'clock and from 3 to 4
c o'clock. But on til's night ho happened
to be a little later on his first round, and
r as he parsed through the jail his atteviion
was arrested by the falling of a
brick. He proceeded to the place where
it fell, and discovered the prisoners had
in so^ne way got out of the sfeel cage,
i and weie at work with all their might
* and main on the brick wall and were
just about through, the outer hiick already
beginning to fall.
The hole in the wall was planned on a
mrge scaie, ana in less man live minute f?

which frightened them back, the prison

Wakefield is now Wife in tho county

Killing' of Policeman Tucker.
We copy from the Anderson Daily
the following timely warning aid
3raVfcieItHSflfnection with the killing of
polld|pan Tucker in Greeuviile l.st
week by Ellis Sanders:
The killing of Policeman Tucker in
Greenville by Ellis Sanders was a sickenP
irg tragedy. Theie was no cc#asion f< r
0 it.
a The man who ventures to lecture an
n individual or a community receives no
thanks for his trouble, but there are
y some basons which may be drawn from
if this affair and which ought to be pointed
e out.
e Sanders was a white man, and had es.
tabhshed relations of intimacy with a
negro woman. As is always the case,
"r t?ot h the man and the woman sank to
y the lowest levels. The woman got
1 drunk and was arrested and locked up
' by the police. This incensed Sanders,
' and he met the policeman on the street
ar.d shot and killed him.
e Now, the relations of Sanders with
ie the negro woman must have been known
before the woman's arrest. Such things
cmnot be kept secret. A l.d knowing it,
the officers of the law, aided and supported
by the citizens, should have
broken it up long ago. This could have
_ been done If it had been done Sanders
would have become a different mau, he
IP ...
- would Dave gotten ovei his infatuation
e for the woman, and then if the woman
>, had been arrested or gotten iuto other
trot, be he would not have interfered.
Relations such as existed between
g Sanders and the woman always lead to
y trouble. The thing to do in every community
is to break up those relations
just us soon as it is found t hat they exist.
DistingufsTied Visitor.

It seldom falls to the lot of an edi!
tor of a county weekly newspaper to
be honored by a visit to him in his

den from so distinguished a person as
favored us one day last week. Fortunately
people have yet the right to
place lnvldual estimates upon people
, whether high or low, the privilege re,
mains the same. In this Instance,
(| # '
we are pleased to place our visitor in
fche category of the higher class,
' Qur estimate goes in this instance,
e happily, however, we are not alone in
, our judgment of what constitutes and
entitles one to occupy an exalted po
sition in the social and intellectual

possessing nllthe talent and attaind
merits, has liko the modest violet,
