A Card from Clerk Williams.

hear that the report is being
circulated that [ propose to
support the anti-Reform or
anti -Tillman movement in the
coming campaign. My personal
and political views have nothing
whatever to do with my faithful
ness and efficiency as public
officer, yet I have no desire to
conceal my personal opinion; and
take this opportunit to say to the
people Of Edgefield County that
1 supported the Reform movement
from the very outset, and, believing
that the interests of the people
will be best promoted by the con-
tinued success of the Reform
party, l expect to remain true to
my convictions in the matter in
this campaign.

you make a statement of a lie
that originated in Buncombe being
pursued by truth. Now Buucombe
is quite innocent. Justice" started
out with seven yard boots instead
of seven league boots, and made
such rapid progress that it hailed
the lie, if SO it was, and made it
stop long enough to say it lived on

that it had been travelling SO long
over there that when it reached
Buncomhe it was stale and COM

Read This, Farmers.

81 feel that we are today in
South Carolina in almost as preca-
rious condition as we were prior
to the campaign of 1879.
This is what James l.. Orr said
in his speech at Columbia in &C
cepting the nomination for Lieut..
Governor. In other words your
Governor is just little better
than Chamberlain, Moses, Scott
and other Radical Governors
elected by the negro vote, and YOU
are just little better than the
negroes who elected these Radical
Governors. Col. Orr and the
Haskellites and ants are no doubt
of one mind, for it is said this
remark of Col. Orr's was
applauded to the skies. Don't
forget this comparison when the
Colonel addresses you from the
hastings this summer.-Geenville

HE GOT THE. CHICKEN.
A Brave Barnwell Soldier Who
Wouldn't Sthrve.

An old gentleman who lives
near Grahams, and who. fought
bravely in Hago.d,s Brigade, Capt
Graham's Company during the
war, was taken. sick during the
second battle of Manassas, and
was left for dead On the field.
He revived, however and
searched diligently. among the
haversacks for something to eat.
He finally found a few crackers
and lived on them five " days.
Exhausted, wearied,, burning with
fever and pinched by starvation,
he went boldly up to a stately
mansion in Pennsylvania. A
woman with a pistol appeared at
the door.
The old Confederate pulled his
hat and said, madam, 1 am
starving. Can't you give me
something to eat? If you will only
give me one of these chickens
running around here 1 may
live"
She raised her pistol and said,
$50 away from my premises, you
trifiing rebel, or l will shoot
you"
Crumbling little piece of the
cracker on the ground he called
the chickens around him, and
reaching down he picked up one,
Then turning to the woman he
said, madam, | have never stolen.
You are here surrounded by plenty
and 1 am starving. don't believe
it is a sin for me to take this
chicken. You can shoot if you
want to, and if God wants me to
die l am ready"
He walked away, and as he was
going down the lane the cruel
woman fired at him five times, but
all the bullets went wide of the
mark. He broiled that chicken
without salt and rejoined the
army at MISUNDERSTANDING
Herald.

Riglets from Sand Hill.

Mr.. EDITOR: Some townfop
passed up the road yesterday and
told negro that John Sheppard
was a candidate for President.
Now, Mr.. Editor, we live in the
back woods, don't know what is
going on like you town folks do,
so please tell us if Sheppard is a
candidate for President. We told
the negro that it must be for Gov
ernor, but he said not. We heard
up here some time ago that Shep.
pard and some more of our old
bosses were going to have a little
convention in Columbia some time
in March to see if they could not
fix up some plan to get in power
again. We hope it is not SO, fol
we are all in favor of Sheppard fol
President, but if he is candidate
for Governor VIC are solid for Ben
Tillman. Ben will beat Sheppard
ten to one in Gray township fol
Governor; you can bet your bottom
dollar on that.

Democratic Rally.

Pursuant to the order of the State
Democratic Executive Committee, the
County Democratic Executive Com
mittee of Edgefeld county, through
the undersigned as its chairman,
hereby issues call for the reorganl-
zation of the Democratic party in this
county, under the Constitution of the
Democratic party of South Carolina,
adopted in State Convention at Colum-
bia, s. Cy Sept, 10, 1890.
The several county clubs are called
to meet at their usual places of meet
ing on the second Saturday (the 9th
day. of April next, for the purpose of
recognizing said clubs, and for the
purpose of electing delegates to the
county convention.
The County Convention will meet on
the first Monday (the End day. in May

the party in this county, to elect new
County Executive Committee, to elect
delegates to the State Convention,
which meets in Columbia on the third
Wednesday in May next, and to trans
act other business as may be proper
under the Constitution.
The State Democratic Constitution
provides that the representation in
each subordinate club in said county
convention, shall be one delegate for
every twenty-five members and one
delegate for each majority fraction
thereof; also that only such Demo-
cratic clubs as were in existence on
the 18th Of August, 1890, shall be re-
coghlzed. No club that was formed or
organized after the 18th day of August,
1896, by the division of an old club or
otherwise shall be reorganized.
The constitution aforesaid further
provides that "the clubs in each county
shall be held together and operate un-
der the control of a County Executive
Committee, which shall consist of one
member from each club to be nomi-
mated by the respective clubs and
elected by the county conventions"
each club will therefore nominate one
of its members to- be elected by the
county convention to serve on the
County Executive Committee.

the Orleans compress, the walls
suddenly gave way, and Capt
DuPree, Lieut.. Shaw and Pipe
man Bordeaux were buried in
the ruins. All were seriously and
possibly fatally injured.
The Indepence cotton yards had
been engulfed, and the fire covered
an area Of five squares.
The Baldwin agricultural works
and the Louisiana rice mills four
squares distant, were ignited by
the masses of burning cotton
which filled the air, but after u
hard fight both buildings were
saved without serious loss.
A panicprevailed in the vicinity
of the fire, which was close to the
residence districts, and people
LIVING many blocks distant began
fleeing for their lives, carrying
what few belongings they could
gather up in their haste.

TEN STATES STORM SWEPT
The Havoc Wrought by Fri.
days Tornado.

CHICAGO, April 5-Reports OF yes'
terday's storm show it to have been
the most general as to the extent
of territory for many years. The
State of Kansas, Colorado, Ne.
braska; Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin.
Illinois, Missouri, Texes and
Indiana were swept by a furious
storm of. wind, rain and hail, in
some places rising. to the force Of
a tornado, and nowhere falling
below the danger line of velocity
TERRIBLE HAVOC IN KANSAS.
KANSAS CITY, April with
the going down of the wind, the
telegraph is again brought into
service, and the storm stricken
district of Kansas is heard from.
The wire service is still very bad,
but there is enough news coming
in to show that the terrible work
was far reaching and very
destructive. A careful estimate
regarding the number of killed
aud wounded throughout the State,
the result of the winds havoc
makes it nearly 100 killed and
between 200 and 800 injured.
The reports are: South Haven,
8 dead and 80 wounded i Walling-
ton, 4 dead and % injured; on
farms between these two towns, 8
dead and 9 injured; Towanda, II
dead and 45 wounded; Augusta,
7 dead and 10 injured; Homestead,
5 dead and 7 injured; Strong City,
2 dead and s wounded; Salina, IL
injured, 3 fatally. These towns are
the only ones from which anything
like definite report has been
obtained, and the possibilities are
that when the western towns and
villages are heard from the death
list will be swelled to nearly
100.
Among the strange stories told
of the queer actions of the wind is
that of Miss Ella Thornton, OF
Towanda, who was blown away by
the storm and carried a distance Of
half a mile, carrying a pillow. She
was blown through the side of a
wrecked barn and deposited on
the back of a horse unhurt.
SEVEN KILLED AND MANY INJURED
Topeka, Kas., April 2.-Seven
persons were killed and over
dozen others badly injured by
the tornado of Thursday night in
the little town of Wamego. The
storm levelled the house of Albert
Eggers and carried the inmates q
distance of 200 feet. The body Of
Mrs. Eggers was found at q
considerable distance from the
ruins of her home. The body o1
her youngest child was tightly
clasped in her arms.

BIG FIRE!
seventy-Five Thousand Bales OF
Cotton Consumed-Over
One Thousand People
Homeless.
Mine Creek, S. c.

New ORLEANS April New
Orleans was visited yesterday by
two of the worst fires in the city's
history. Eleven blocks of build
ings we're destroyed, involving q
loss of $3,6OO,O00. Both fires were
the result of carelessness, and
would have been trivial but for
the extreme dryness, which was
the result of a long drought, a
high wind and the inadequacy
of the fire department. The latter
was reorganized in January from
the volunteer to the pride
department system, and. the
number of the fremen was reduced
about nine tenths.
The first fire started about 1C
o'clock, in pile of cotton in front
of the fireproof compress at the
corner of Tobir and Fronttstreets
Some one threw 4 lighted cigarette
in the pile, which in a few NOM
ents was bur ing fereely The
flames quickly their way into

masses of burning cotton, which
communicated the flames to the
adjacent structures.

Legal Suicide.

Not 10 speak llgntly OF grave
subjects, Oregon has put the beer
on her murderers. The man who
kills another and is convicted of
murder is sentenced to death as
in other states, but is made to
hang himself. The hanging takes
place there amid all the lugubrious
surroundings which are common
to the death penalty elsewhere,
The striking difference, we are
informed, is in the supreme mo-
ment-the execution itself
Instead of the sheriff, or some
hired deputy, having to hang the
culprit by a spring trap, touching
trigger, or driving off a horse,
the gallows is automatic, and the
victim is his own executioner.
The hanging takes place in the
Execution room" of the Jail, in
the presence of fourteen persons
certain designated officers, a
spiritual adviser chosen by the
prisoner, and jury of six reputable
citizens of the State. The hanging
contrivance which is said to beat
electricity, is thus described.
AS the prisoner enters the execu-
tion room and has finished his
consultation with his spiritual
adviser, the black cap is placed
over his head, the moose is
adjusted, and he advances to a
position on small piece of carpet,
about four feet square which is
placed directly in the centre. This
carpet covers one end of the fatal
machine. While there is nothing
suspicious about this carpeted
spot, it is a small platform separate
from the rest of the floor. Below,
it rests on the end of long lever,
the opposite end of which is in an
adjoining room. In this ad-
joining room are two large pals.
The upper pail contains about
forty pounds of water, q rubber
tube connect it with the pail
below, and the water starts to
flow at the opening of a valve.
This pail of water is fastened 10
one end of a steel bar, at the other
end of which is a thirty-pound ball
of iron, held in it's position by the
heavier weight at the other end.
To this ball of iron is attached a
rope passing upward and over a
pulley into the wall where trigger
holds a weight of 225 pounds in
position. This weight is also
securely fastened to a rope which
seems to disappear over the ceiling
The other end of this rope is the
one at which the condemned man
is standing.
Unconscious of what he is doing.
he steps on to this small bit OF
carpet. His weight moves the
lever under the floor. By this
the valve in the pail of water
is opened. Noiselessly the water
passes through the rubber tube into
the empty pail. The ball of iron
is released from it's position. 1t
jerks out the trigger holding the
heavy weight. This drops and
within thirty seconds from the
time the man has stepped on to
the carpet he is jerked into the
air and his Deaths instantaneous
The prisoner is jerked about SIX :;
feet into to the air and falls back
to about three feet from the
floor.
In each ofthe four executions
which have taken place, the neck
has been broken and there has ap'
peared no sign of struggling.
