AN UGLY AFFAIR.

Our Prosperity correspondent gives a
graphic account of The terrible affair
that took place in the O'Neall section
of this county last Saturday and Sat
urday night. 1t makes our heart sad
to think any such things could happen
in aoy section Of our county.
The shooting part, bad enough in
itself, would not have been half so bad
had it not heen for the sequel which
took place on Saturday night. 1t is
terrible to think Of the treatment given
that poor defenSeless woman and her
little children. How could any man
with even the instincts of man act as
those persons did who burned that
house. We know none Of the parties
aud have not heard name suggested
and we are glad we do not. If they
were after Butler Banks they should
first have ascertaine6 whether he was
there or not. This case demands ac-
ton on the part ofthe authorities of the
law, and immediate action. Such
things should not be permitted to go
unchecked. If 50 no man can feel Sc
cure in his life or bis property.

5 Mr. ]. D. Stanley, of Easiover,
claims to have discovered the process
Of preparing the bark Of the ramie
plant so as to be ready to be spun before
the discovery by DR.: Panknin. The
Register has the following to say OF
,Mr- LStanley's investigations in this di-
Tection:,
ssHe some time ago achieved this con-
summation Of his Investigations and
has already applied for letters patent
covering his process, and expects that
his application for patent will be
granted, il, indeed, it has not already
been.
The samples he shows are very inter
est;ng, and the ramie fibre has silken
appearance, which makes it. when
spun and woven, a very rich and hand
some fabric, capable Of being dyed any
color.
Mr.. Stanley has been enabled to per-
feet mis- process for preparing pine
straw fibre so that be can produce it.,
ready for spinning, at cost Of only ST
ton. This fibre can be made ilto
cotton baggi lg, floor mating, &C., and
for either use it compares favorably
with the product made from jute.
His machinery at EaStover has ca
pacity for preparing one tone of pine
straw fibre ready for spinning per day.
This woven into bagging would be able
= to be supplied at three cents a yard,
and reckoning six yards to the bale, the
low cost of the new fab.ic and the
great saving to the cotton planter over
the present baggiDg is easily figured
The weight Of the six yards is but lot
pounds

MORE ABouT TAXATION.

A good deal has recently been said
, about taxation and the return of prop
.seFty for taxation. We have cootended
and still contend for some plan by
which we can secure more perfect
system of equalization in the retu"as.
If every tax payer would return his
property at its value and all of his prop
erty then the burdens would be borne
equally by all persons.
But there is another thingia the law
in regard to returns that does not seem
to US to be equitable and that operates
as double taxation. The law provides
that mortgages shah be assessed for
taxation, which is virtually taxing the
same property twice.
To illustrate: 4 certa. l pa eel Of
real estate is bought by A on which
B gives a mortgage to A foc the pur-
chase money. The real estate Of A is
returned for taxation at its value and
the mortgage Of B is returned for taxa
ton at its value. That looks to US as if
itwere taxing the same property twice.
We may be mistaken but we see it
that way now.

Narrow Escape of a Train.

WASHINGTON, January 13.-Passen-
sengers who arrived tonight on the
Piedmont Air Line from the South re-
port deliberate attempt to wreck the
train last night near the western
border of South Carolina. The train
left Atlanta at 615 p. M, and while
coming down the mountain at great
speed between Fredala andWestminster
suddenly collided with an obstruction,
throwing the passengers out of their
seats and badly damaging the cars:
Upon investigation it was found that
an oak tie had been placed upright on
high trestle over ravine and that two
large stones had also been pla iced upon
the track. The rate Of speed at which
the train was going, however, broke
the tie in twain and ground the
stones to atoms. The passengers say
that the high speed of the train was the
only thing that averted great disas-

Marriage os Miss Sophie Ti'lman.
TEdgefeld Advertiser.

Miss Sophie Tillman is the second
daughter Of the Hon. Il. D. Tillman,
our Representative in Congress. She is
handsome both of face and figure; and
in her manners are combined, in rare
harmony, quiet dignity and gentle
sweetness. Congressman Tillman's
oldest daughter, Lola-now Mrs. DR..
George Bunch-has been married six
or seven years. On Wednesday morn
ing of last week, at eleven O'Clock, at
her home at Clark's Hill, S. c., Miss
Sophie Tillman was married to the
Hon. Osmund w. Buchanan, of Fair
field. Mr.. Buchanan comes OF one of
the oldest and best families of Fairfield
and Chester, and is young lawyer of
wide learning and large practice. He is
particularly known to the legal frater-
nifty of South Carolina as the author of
the recently published "Annotated
Code of South Caroliua." "The ceremony
was performed by the Rev. J. P. Mea-
ling. The bride, whose taste in dress
has always been quietand elegant, wore
a dark travelling dress ofblue allie with
i hat to match.
The groomsmen and bridesmaids
were as follows: Mr. James II. Tiliman
with Miss Buchanan, DR.. John Bucha-
nan with Fannie Tillman, Mr.. Carter
with Miss Booten, MI. Elliott with Miss
Simpson, Mr.. John McMaster with
Miss Minnie McKie, DR.. R. Hanahan
with Miss Mary McKie. There were no
cards of invitation issued, and only d
few intimate friends and relatives were
present. After a late breakfast, at
which the unbounded hospitality and
old-fashioned Southern notions and
customs of Congressman and Mrs.
Tillman were charmingly illustrated,
Mr.. and Mrs. Buchanan, with num-
Der offriends, left for cheir future home,
Winnsboro.
Among the prominent guests present
was Senator Tom Woodward, of Fair
field.

lGIOU1 GuG 3sCStSCSasJ -. -,
CHESTER, January 12.-For the past
month the. main topic Of discussion has
been the re-openingof The bars In Ches-
ter. The recent, ,Act5of the Legislature
repeals the prohibitoiy law in force IN
this County since 1882, and authorizes
the Town Council to issue license on
and af.er 18th lust, under certain re-
strictions and regulations. A petition,
for an election as provided in the Dill
was talked of but did not material
ize. Under the terms of the bill the
druggists who keep whiskey "f9r medl-
cinal purposes" cannot sell except they
first take out license. What they will
do 'doth not yet appear" but IN all
probability the courts will have TO
decide upon the constitutionality OF the
law. 1t is believed that within the next
thirty days, Chester Will have at least
eight regularly licensed barrooms. The
Council will very likely fix the license
at SGOO-the milimum prescribed IN
the law-which Will give US some
what plethoric treasury of about So,Eo
from this source alone. At least two
more policemen Will be added 10 the
force. With this increase OF revenue
to the town, many improvements OF
which the place stands in need can oe
made.

Festival at Johnstone Academy.

To the Editor o. he Herald and News:
AS none of the editors were at our
entertainment, we, in justice to those
who contributed to its success, will
give few dots. Friday evening proved
most propitious in every respect, and
Joyous occasion to our community.
The atmosphere was dry and just cool
enough to be bracing. The moon shone
with soft, silvery light, and all nature
seemed to be in unison with our feel
ings. The young people, joyous souls,
were jubilant, and the old folks, like
your writer, almost forgot that forty
years were burden.
Johnstone Academy was the scene OF
our festivities. At an early hour the
crowd began to gather, even mothers
with their babies. Unlike most Of pee-
pie, we like to see the babies every
where. 1t is sure sign that mothers
are out with their children. Would
that more mothers would give their
presence and influence to their chill
dren's meetings.
Soon the house was full and we felt
glad that so many had shown an in
terest in the school.
Our exercises consisted of recitations
and music. Misses 10. and Sarah
Langford, and Messrs. Latham and
Edwards furnished us music. The
music was fine and soul inspiring. We
once thought we could sing, "The
Field of Monterey" and Brave Volun-
teer." Weknow now that we did not
know what music was. rs ignorance
6lisss"
The young ladies Of the school gave
their recitals, but we, the teachers, Will
submit it to others as to merit.
MIR. Silas Johnstone gave "Dying
alone and Wearily Waiting" mos
pathetically. He then read private
letter with which we were struck. Oh
this clause! "Did advice teach like ex
perieoce, how differently life would b.
spent" Mr.. Johnstone also gave {
parody on 1.-THE Raven" which wa'
most amusing. Mr.. Latham gav
"Sockery," which pleased every one
and "a sleep by the Switch" whicl
was much appreciated. We were gla'
the latter proved only dream. Rev
II. c. Boyd and DR.. Reid did US goot
service. Thanks to every one for tn
kindness shown, and service given.
The only thing to mar the evening
was some thoughtless boys throwing
fire crackers, which frightened womel
and horses. We know them, but ha7'
more respect for their parents, wh'
were not with them, than to write thei
names. Suffice it to say they were no
pypils of Johnstone Academy.

Physicians Could not Help.
