TIE BIG SHOW COMING.
Will Surely be Here on Next Nonoay.

Walter L. Mains Grandest and Best
Shows on Earth will give two perform
ances in Newberry on Monday October
29th.
This organization is considered one
of the best, if not, in fact, the best
circus travelling. For this season every
thing is new from the canvas to the
seats. A very large company of eques'
trian artists have been engaged, each
and every one of whom are said to be
stars in their respective lines, and they
include every branch of the circus per.
formers. Many entirely new acts and
a longer number of sensational novel
ties will be presented. The performan-
ces will be given in three rings and two
elevated stages. The seats have been so
arranged that no one will be prevented
from seeing all that is going on. Aside
from the circus department the mena-
gerie will contain some very valuable
additions, and a number Of the animals
have been trained to that state of per-
fection that they almost equal human
beings. Among others may be nlen-
toned the riding lion, who rides q
bareback horse, with the ease and grace
of the most accomplished artists. This
is the only lion in the country who has
been brought to such state of docility
to perform such difficult feats. There is
the baby elephant, who in company
with two beautiful ponies and two
clown dogs, goes through q series OF
drills, waltzes and other remarkable
actions. Space will not permit Us to
mention all the remarkable things that
Mr. Main will offer for your amuse-
ment. So all we can say is look at the
advertisements and 60 and see "The
Grandest and Best"

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an ipfsmed con-
dition Of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tsehian Tabe. When this tube is in
famed you have q -umbhng sound or
i,nperfect bearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the Inflammation can be taken
ont and this tube restored to its nor
mai condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine csses out Of tep
are caused by catarrb, which nething
but an infiamed condition ofSehe nu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

An Entertaining Lecture.

Last week we had the pleasure of
listening to q lecture by Prof Voigt on
the Thirty Years War, delivered before
the pupils Of the private school. It was
entertaining and instructive and de-
livered in Prof. Voigt's most pleasing
style. He covered the whole period of
this war and we dare say gave the
pupils more facts than they were able to
take in and digest, but it should have
the effect of arousing spirit of inquiry
and investigation and in this way
prove Of great benefit to- the pupils.
Such lectures as this cannot but be
beneficial and it would be good idea
TO have, say one month, some sucn
lecture delivered before the pupils OF
the Graded Schools.
The private school has as fine looking
and intelligent set of girls as you will
find anywhere and is doing a most ex-
cellent work.

A SHOOTING AFFAIR.
Henry B. WelIe and George Bishop Empty
their kevolvers at Each Other in
J.W. Whites Store.

An unfortunate shooting took place
in New berry last Friday between Mr..
Geo. Bishop and Mr.. Henry B. Wells.
Mr.. Well has been working for Mr.. J.
w. White for some time and was in
the store at work when Mr.. Bishop
came in the store and walked to the
resr end where MED Kingsmore was
at work. They engaged in conversation
and Mr.. Bishop was looking at some
articles that he desired to purchase.
They had come to the front of the
store and were standing on opposite
sides Of the counter near the large safe
at the door. Mr.. Wells quit his work
and walked around within few feet
OF Bishop and opened fire on him.
Bishop Immediately returned the fire
and the cannonading was kept up until
both parties had exhausted their pis-
tolls. It is said that five shots were
fred on each side. Bishop was shot
three times in the neck at very nearly
the same place, and Wells was hit in
the left wrist, right shoulder and
abdomen. Oae ball from one of the
pistolssplowed its way across the street
and through the door of Mr.. Williams
furniture store and into some furniture
on the inside but fortunately no passer-
by came within its range. They both
used thirty eight calibre Smith and
Wesson pistols and after emptying
these they clyinched and were endeav-
oring to knock it out, but were soon
separated and physicians were sum-
mond to dress the wounds. The balls
in Wells we're all removed, but one ball
is still in Bishops neck. The wounds
while pretty serious are not considered
dangerous and yesterday afternoon
both parties were reported as doing
well and will likely be up in few
days. ~
Mr.. Wells is son of Mr.. Os Wells,
of Newberry, while Mr.. Bishop is the
son of the Chief of Police Bishop.
There has been bad feeling between
the young men for some time, and
while the affair is to be regretted it was
not wholly unexpected.
We believe there is no question Of
the fact that Mr.. Wells opened fire
first. There was not word spoken, so
we are informed by Mr.. White, from
the beginning to the end of the diff
Guilty.
It happened about twelve o'clock in
the day time.
As to the rumors of the cause of the
bad feeling The Herald and News does
not feel called upon to 60 into details,
and we see no good to be accomplished
by it.

BLADON SENTENCED TO BE HANGED.
The Judge Says the Verdict is Righteous
Verdict.
TSuecial 10 the News and Courier. I

Especial 10 the News and Courier.l
SPARTASBURG, Oct. 22.-TbIs morn
ing, when Court met, a few prisoners
were arraigned for sentence. Three or
four negroes appeared and received
their sentences.
John A. Bladon was then placed in
the dock. He is stalwart man, about
4U or IS years old, heavy moustache,
erect bearing, and weighs when in good
condition $50 TO 200 pounds. AS he
entered the dock he showed consider
able trepidation. He had worn, hag-
GARD look as though be had not slept
we'll for several nights. The clerk, T.
B. TRIMMER, read in a clear and dis
tipct voice the indictment. Judge Fra
ser then asked him if he had anything
to Say more than be had said why SEN
tence ofoeatn should not be pronounced
against him. ....-.....-
In weak, faltering, indistinct voice
he uttered short sentence, which
could not be heard q few feet away
from the dock. Judge Fraser said: II
do not understand what you say"
Stanyarne Wilson, his attorney, arose
and said. HE says that be does not
fear verdict drawn from hat" -
The Judge then proceeded to read
the sentence. 1t was very short. He
said be did not see how the jury could
come to any other conclusion than the
one they reached when the evidence
was considered. That be had shot
down Henry Palmer when be was
running from him, after all danger was
over. The Judge then sentenced him
to be hanged Friday, January Is, 1855,
between the hours of 10 a. m. and 9
p. NJ.
Ofcourse no one expects that "Bloody
Jack BIadon" will be executed. His
friends are in power. The shortest and
cheapest solution of the whole matter
would be for Governor Tillman to par
don him at once, and as an act of
retributive vipdictiveness to appoint
him chief dispenssry constable for
Spartanburg and place him over this
people again. That would be a fine
Tillmanic stroke. An appeal will be
taken to the Supreme Court.
The trial and conviction has caused
considerable comment. Of course there
is a difference OF opinion. Some believe
that Bladon had perfect right to shoot
Palmer or any other negro. The opin-
ion of the law-abidiDg, law-respecling
people is that it is q correct verdict, and
that the jury rose above partisan pre-
judices to reach it. If Bladon is par
doned tomorrow the moral effect will
be the same as if he is hanged.
