TEN MEN FALL 5000 FEET.
Terrible Disaster in the Calumet and
Hecla Mine.

RoUGHToN, Mich, May 14.-Ten
men were dashed to pieces in the Red
Jacket perpendicular shaft of the Caiu-
met and Hecla mine at noon to-day.
The miners were coming up in the
cage to dinner, and the engineer hoisted
the cage against the timbers Of the
shaft. The coupling pin broke and the
men and cage were dashed downward
over 5000 feet to the bottom.
The. men were aboard a skip used in
hosting rock, and when the load of
human freight reached the surface, the
engine did not stop in time and the lift
went to the top Of the derrick, where it
broke loose and went back with crash
to the bottom of the Shaft.
There is no way of reaching the bot
tom nor of getting the dead men out
except by going through another shaft
half mile away, so that it was nearly
three hours before the true state of af-
fairs could be ascertained, and it will
be toward morning before the bodies
can be brought to the surface.
The wife of Pope was standing at
the mouth of the shaft with bis dinner
pail, and witnessed the terrible fall OF
himself and his comrades.
Twelve men went down this morn
ing, but one of them was attacked by
sickness and was sent up accompanied
by one of his comrades. The Coroner
and jury is now making thorough
investigation.
The coupling pin to the wire cable
broke and the buckle: fell with light
ming velocity over three thousand feet.
The mouth of the shaft is closed up
and searching party have gone down
Calumet No. 4 shaft, over half mile
away, and will come through cross
cut tunnel to search for the bodies.
It will be another day before Mine
Inspector Hall and the Coroner's jury
can gather the evidence.

Helena Heraldings.

Miss Louisa Meredith, of Laurens,
is visiting her friends in the village.
We are having a beautiful season.
the moist. mellow earth is being car
peted with vegetation, and the gleam-
ing plow and facile hoe are at a pre-
MUM.
We seldom pass through our quiet
and inviting little grove that we do not
regret Newberry's need of a cool, Sc
questered, shaded spot for her citizens
to spend q restful hour. A park or
grove somewhere, with its fountain, its
terraces and its seats; its serpentine
walks aud drives. Something of the
kind is needed. Both pleasant and
healthful resort.
The friends here of Mrs. W. B. Can
non are grieved to learn of her death
which occurred on the 14th instant, at
her fathers home, near KiDards.
Mrs. Cannon resided in this village
for several months last year, and ep-
deared herself to many by her gentle,
lady-like bearing and Christian cour-
tesy.
She was lovely in person and manner,
and we sorrow that one so young and
loved should thus early in life have
"grown tired and laid down to Sleep"
Closed are the sweet brown eyes, to
awake to the enrapturing bliss of the
heavenly greeting and the beauty and
the glory of the life eternal.
SANS SOUCI.

There Is one thing about Clarke that
always pleases: He is such a hard,
earnest and conscientious worker. He
throws so much life and enthusiasm
into everything be touches, that his
appearance is Intoxicating to the audi
:ence; it makes everything appear to
ffoTg Smoother and livelier, and it
gives life and interest to the dullest
dialogue. The play is certainly agreat
success and last nights is the very best

Baseball.

There have been during the past
weeR several games of baseball in
which Newberry has figured, and in
some cases she did not gain the vic
tory, but the boys had lots of fun ali
the same.

went over to Clinton to meet the Clin-
ton boys on the diamond: The game
resulted in II to IA in favor of Clinton.
These two mines are to play two more
games to settle the championship, and
soon Clinton will come down to New
berry and another game will be played.
Then on Saturday of last week the
college nine and the Cannon Creek
nine had a match game on the grounds
of the latter, and the game resulted in
score of "a to II in favor of he college
boys.

The Wreck Of the Cyclone.

Aho "TcCA OA tQo OyClOuo.
On Monday afternoon a reporter for
The Herald and News, through the
kindness Of MI. L. w. Floyd, drove out
to view the wreck made by the recent
cyclone.
It is a terrible wreck at the old Nc
Kellar homestead. The cid gin house
is gone and the dwelling is in ruins.
What a fortunate thing there was none
of the family in the house at the time.
A negro cabin in the yard, in few feet
OF the main track, was not hurt in the
least and in it at the time was colored
woman.
The tornado seems to have started
right there at the gin house and was
very narrow.
1t then struck Aull's steam mill and
unroofed it, and no more damage is in
sight. Mr.. Hayes place is right in the
line of the track, but nothing was hurt.
The next damage is some six miles off.
Out here the track of the damage is
only few yards wide aud less than
half a mile in length.
THE CROPS.
Mr.. Floyd has the finest field of rye
We have seen this year. but he is not
going to use it for the purpose of fur
nishing the pure essence to the State
dispensary, but expects to plov it un-
der.
The cotton is coming up nicely but
the late planting is looking better and
more healthy than the very early plant
ing.
Mr.. J. J. Lane had about twenty
five hands in his field and be was in
the midst of them.
The grain crop, especially the oats,
is looking much better than the farmers
expected some weeks ago. The rains
have helped the oats very much.

10th EARS CUT OFF.
S.wberry County Colored Woman Takes
Her Revenge for Alleged Wrongs.

Another dark case has come to light
in the annals of crime, and another
chapter is recorded in the black book
of vengeance" A negress named
McGrath claimed that another dusky
damsel had stolen her husbands af-
fections and she swore dire revenge on
her enemy. She planned to have both
ears of her rival, and successfully car
ried her threat into execution. She
went to the woman's house, threw her
upon the floor and accomplished her
purpose. The affair occurred about
eight miles south of Newberry.
The work seems to have been done
deliberately and premeditatively, as
the wronged woman told the Wronger
that she had come to cut her ears of
smoothly, and when the amputation
was completed it was shown that the
avenger meant business-the ears were
whacked off right up against the vic
TINS head. The woman who did the
cutting first raked the back of her
knife against her victim's throat, as
she held her body on the floor, to make
her take her hands from her ears,
which she had covered for protection.
The cut woman was told by the cutter
why it was done.
It will thus be seen that the aveng-
ing woman did not desire the death OF
her victim, when the wrong act Of the
one would be forgotten in the grave
and the crime of the other swallowed
up in the gallows. The woman bent
on revenge seems to have realized this.
She wanted her enemy to live and suf.
fer, so she coolly and thoughtfully and
with presence of mind, under great
provocation, but nevertheless wilfully,
feloniously and with malice afore-
thought, manned her for life, SO that
she might carry the ear-marks Of her
guilt wherever she went. She should
show to the world what the cost is to
ALLEVIATE husbands love-even ''in
darkest Africa
The strangest part Of the case is that
the earless woman refuses to institute
pro >eedings against her assailant, and
has lef t. scenes of her former trl-
umpbs and couquests.

Ordered Paid.

At the meeting of the Farmers Mu-
tual Insurance Company yesterday the
insurance of Mr.. J. P. Mahon and Mr..
Asa Oxner was ordered paid. and the
treasurer will proceed to collect the
same.
Mr.. Mahon was insured for $500, and
the whole amount will be paid him.
Mr.. Oxner had more but his damage
was assessed on the residence at $500;
one tenant house 500; one tenant house
S25; furniture $25. making a total of
$3.50, which will pretty fully cover his
loss.
Mr.. Mahon gets the whole amount
for which be was insured, but it does
not cover the loss.
