Because l had no returns showing
his election answered Clerk Hamll-
ton.
did you swear in Councilman Nc
Quillan?" continued Councilman Car
roll.
ASK him why, now,n said Council
man McQuillan, when the clerk
nodded in assent.
Because the returns on file in my
Office showed his election" replied
Clerk Hamilton, when the query was
put.
THE VOTE COUNTED.
Councilman Goddard said he didn't
see that the action of the Board in
| voting would invalidate the right of
either Councilman McQuillan OF MI.
Post to a seat. Clerk Hamilton was
asked the proper course to pursue, and
he replied that he had nothing to do
but call the roll. He was not chair
man. He was simply clerk. The
Board, according to the charter, was
the judge of the qualifications of its
own members.
''There are only ten chairs here and
/ don't see where the room is for the
eleventh. musingly said Councilman
Cronin.
81 got this one and I intend to keep
it, said Councilman McQuillan.
Counsellor Northrup claimed the
election of Mr.. Post.
Clerk Hamilton ordered the ballots
counted and the tellers complied. The
result showed that Councilman God
dard had been given five votes to three
blanks, and Clerk Hamilton declared
him elected.
Upon taking his seat President God
dard declared the election of a City
Clerk in order, and appointed Coun-
cilmen Scofield and Meigs as tellers.
The Council then reelected William
G. Hamilton for his twentieth term.
The ballot resulted in six votes for
Hamilton to three blanks. Mayor
Newman's annual message was read
and filed. The Board adjourned after
doing likewise with a protest from Mr..
Post against allowing Mr.. McQuillan
to take his seat in the Board.

Trustee Charles Smith came in too
late for the ballot. He voted on the
second for Trustee Trask, but the
tellers read the vote for Van Dyck.
Otherwise there was no change. Be-
fore the third ballot was taken, the

The Auditor Beaten in his Office.

Shortly after DR.. Huggins's sudden
attack of rheumatism of the heart
yesterday, Mr.. George H. Huggins
walked into the auditors Office, and
with a right sizable walking stick (or-
ange wood) began beating auditor D.
j. Bradham. One blow, and the one
that gave the most pain, hit Capt.
Bradham on the short stump of his
amputated arm, causing the flesh on
the stump to swell very much. He
struck four blows in all, one of which
was warded of by chair, breaking
the chair rounds out. Mr.. Higgins
was then taken hold OF. and Capt
Bradham was assisted to his residence,
where be received medical assistance.
The only severe wound Capt. Brad
ham got was that on the stump OF his
amputated arm. Capt. Bradham hopes
thai he will be able to be out to-day.
Mr.. Higgins says he approached
Capt. Bradham, arG telling him that
his course had nearly killed his faith
er, began beating him. He said
nothing to any one of his intentions,
and his action took every one by sur
prise.
Capt Bradham says Mr.. Higgins
said nothing to him, but while be
was sitting at his desk, taking a tax
return, he was struck, and he did not
know who was striking him until the
third blow. when be saw and recog-
nized Mr.. Higgins. Mr.. ". H. Cole
who was in the room, and the first to
attempt to stop Mr. Higgins, says
the blows were the first intimation he
had of the difficulty.
The cause Of the difficulty was that
Mr.. Huggins thinks Capt. Bradham,

BarnWell is Puzzled.
Charleston World. l

>,BAsNwEIL, Feb. 5.-One Of the strangest
incidents that have ever known occurred
recently One Lewis Ashley was arrested
and brought before Trial Justice Patterson
for falling to pay poll tax. He was convict
ed and committed to Jail, and it has been
subsequently, ascertained that the offender,
who was supposed to be man, was wo-
man in mans clothing. This woman has
been in Barnweu as man for seven or
eight years; she smokes, chews, and has
voted in our elections under the name of
Lewis Ashly, as was shown on her registra-
tion ticket. She is still in jail, and may
have to serve the remainder of her sentence,
as no one seems disposed to interest them
selves in her behalf, and the trial justice
says he cannot revoke his sentence. She
will not give her name, and no one can as
certain why she assumed the apparel OF
and went thus masquerading as man. II
has been learned that she is the mother OF
two children.

The Beaufort County Troubles.

BEAUFORT, February, S.-The grand jury
finished their work to-day. Among other
recommendations they made concerning the
county troubles was that the new county
commissioners buy books and seals for all
Offices, as the records had been carried
away by the old officers, and that the old
officers bondsmen be indicted, and also
that the officers be indicted for carrying
the records of the county away. They al
so made demands on each of the old officers
for the books and seals they had taken away.
Each of them refused to surrender, and said
he would only give them when the highest
courts in the land order him to do so.

Horses at Auction Next Friday.

Charles NcCaferty, the well known
horse drover, writes US that he will
sell at auction at Bells livery stables,
in Manning, Friday morning, Feb.
18th, to the highest bidder for cash,
one car load fine horses. He will sell
these horses, regardless of what is
bic; and it will probably be his last

Caferty is the largest and wealthiest
horse dealer that ever sold stock in
this State, and every year he sells
thousands Of horses and mules in this
State, many Of them being sold ct re-
markably low figures. Every body

tunity Of buying borses at very low
figures.
Mules Too.
