FOR ROBBING THE NAIL.

Butler Allison, colored, was before
United States Commissioner Trescott
last Saturday on the charge of robbing
the United States mail, and in default
of $500 bond, was committed for trial at
the approaching term of the United
States district court at Greenville.
The alleged offense was committed in
January, 1895, and the circumstances are
these: Allison was carrying the mail OH
the route from Yorkville to 1orkvillc.
At Hero, he saw Mr.. Thomas Allen put
S5.7G in a letter and mail it to Collector
Townes.. Collector Townes did not re-
ceive the letter, and suspicion fell on
Allison.
The principal witnesses in the case are
Mr.. L. \. McGill, the postmaster at
Hero; Mrs. L. \. McGill, Mr.. Tom Allen,
and Mr.. J. +. Glenn, who was at the
time assistant postmaster at 1orkville.
The testimony of Mr.. Allen and Mrs.
McGill was to the effect that Allison saw
the letter mailed and knew its contents,
and Mr.. McGill testified that OH Allisons
second trip after this OCCASION, there was
a hole in the mail bag large enough for
the insertion of a mans hand. Allison
claimed that he knew nothing about the

The colored race is generally considered
improvident; hut from the amount OF
new furniture they are buying, and the
good stock they are purchasing, / think
the general opinion of them may yet

The measles, which has been quite pre-
valent here, is subsiding, though new
cases still occur. The disease has been
quite mild, though a few complicated
cases have occurred.

MICAH JENKINS.

General Longstreet, as is well known
is great admirer OF General Micah
Jenkins. In his recently published book,
From Manassas to AppomattoX," he
refers to that gallant South Carolinian
with the following touching tribute:
"But Micah Jenkins, who fell by the
same fire, was no more. lie was one Vi
The most estimable characters of the army.
His taste and talent were for military
service. He was intelligent, quick, untir,
ing, attentive, jealous in discharge OF
duty, truly faithful to official obligations,
abreast with the foremost in battle, and
withal a humble, noble Christian; In
moment of highest earthly nope ne was
that life beyond that knows no bugle
call" beat of drum or clash of steel. May
his beautiful spirit, through the mercy OF
God, rest in peace! Amen"'

days. All overseers will be instructed to
put their roads in condition by April l.
Mr.. Porter laid before the board the map
of proposed road that citizens Of Chero-
kee township wanted opened, to give them
a convenient route to Shelby and Earle's.
The route calls for the establishment of a
new ferry across Broad river. The pro-
position was laid over, for the reason that
the board had no power to act except upon
the petition of 20 freeholders residing
along the proposed road.
Colonel w. b. Allison, who had been
employed to survey the court house yard,
for the purpose of ascertaining whether or
not the law range recently erected by MIR.
S. l.. Miller encroached upon the proper
ty, made a report to the effect that the pi-
aza and t inches Of the side wall are on
county property. The t inches OF side
wall, however, have already become Mil
ler's by right of possession, and i'll order
to guard against the loss of the ground
covered by the piazza in the same way, 1t
was resolved to instruct the supervisor TO
demand of Miller nominal rellt.
Night Watchman Alexander, of York
Vile, appeared before the board, explained
that he was employed as watchman by
private parties who paid him from 81 cents
to 81 a month each that he watched the
county property, but received nothing,
and he would be glad to have whatever
appeared to be right. By vote OF to 3
the board agreed to give him 3 month.
After being in session about six hours,
the board adjourned.

PRETTY SHREWD LIAR.

OF course, anybody who will steal will
lie, and most thieves are pretty shrewd
liars. There are few, if any exceptions tc
the general rule; but it is generally con-
ceded that while the average Negro thlel
is not so sharp as his white brother ir
evading the consequences of crime, IN
the character of his lies, after he is caught
he is unsurpassed.
A Negro named John Brown, with sew
eral aliases, stole COW one night recently
from colored woman in Iorkville nam
ed Molly Worth. The night was cold
blustery, a heavy rain was falling, and II
was an easy matter for the thief to get tc
Rock Hill with his booty and without
danger Of being tracked. He tried to sell
the COW to Mr.. Brown McFadden. MI
McFadden was suspicious, and managed
to get the Negro to drive the cow into his
lot, and under some pretence about the
bank not being open, secured delay. Mr.
S. A. McElwee happened to be IN Rock
Hill. He recognized both the cow and
the Negro. AS the result, the Negro was
captured and committed to Jail. Here is
where the shrewd lying came in. Magis-
trate Carroll went to the Jail to get partic-
ulars, and Brown told his story.
~ never stole that cow" protested
Brown. 81 just tried to sell it for VIII
Archer. He raised the COW, and was
afraid to try to sell it himself, because
he owed two or three people money and
thought that as soon as Mr.. McFadden
paid him, they would be after him for it
No, sir, never stole the cow"
Magistrate Carroll already had positive
information that there was no Will Archer,
which was probably fictitious name IN
the case, and the probability is that Brown
will pay the full penalty.

After tedious siege of six days, the
penitentiary investigation came to sud-
den close on Wednesday with report full
ly exhon Grating Colonel Neal from all the
charges that have been made against him
by Director Willoughby. One of the last
questions asked Mr.. Willoughby was by
Colonel Neal. 1t was a follows: did
you not say that you would have
signed that majority report if it had not
contained an eulogy of myself?" Mr..
Willoughby practically answered the
question in the affirmative, and the COM
mittee having found nothing in the charges
up to that time, decided that it had better
quit. 1t looked too much like a purely
personal matter. And so the expected
sensation collapsed.

Cuban sources place the advantage on
the other side. There is little reason
to doubt, however, that the Cubans are
practically in possession of the whole
land, with the exceptions of Havana
and other large cities and their imme-
diate vicinities. The general under
standing is that the removal of Cam
DOS means that Spain is determined
to wage a bloody war in which quar-
ter will neither be given nor expected
and, as the result, many Cubans who
have heretofore been neutral, are join
ing the insurent forces. They fear
Spain will 60 on the principle that all
who are not friends are enemies, and
they prefer to openly join the insur-
gents rather than run the risk of being
thrown into dungeons by the Span
iards.

No End of Measles, the Whole Township
Hospital.
Correspondence Of the iorkville Enquirer.
FOREST HILL, January 30.-The measles
have visited most of the families in this
nei ghborhood. Some few have, SO far,
escaped but it is more than likely that all
will be included before the epidemic
over.
Billy Campbell, youngest son of DR.. L.
w. Campbell, has been dangerously ill
with measles and pneumonia combined.
I am happy to say that he is now better,
and there is hope entertained that he will
recover.
Although there are many cases in this
township, we have heard Of no other case
that j. dangerous. DIR. Bigger says that
he is now waiting on 60 or more cases OF
them. They are generally getting on very
well. DR.. Dulin says that he is now
giving medicine to about so cases with
measles, and that there are probably others
in the bounds Of his practice that have
them. 1t does seem that they are going
to make clean sweep fit, and all who
had not had them, from the infant to the
old grandparents, are included this time.
Here is one consolation. 1t will be many
years before there can be another such
epidemic of measles. The doctors say
that there are a few cases Of pneumonia.
Otherwise the health of the community is
good.
Misses Minnie and Mamie Ferguson
are sick with quinsy. Mr. Campbell
Barnett is having chills. Miss Sallie
Campbell was called home from Win
throp on account Of the serious illness
of her brother. Mr.. Leon Campbell, who
is attending school at Fort Mill, also
came to the bedside Of his brother. Mr.
Jas. Brandon's family are almost all
down with the measles. Mr.. Cullender's
also. Mr.. James Bigger's family, includ-
ing himself, were all down with measles
at one time, and if Mr.. Suggs had not
happened to come in, he says his horses
and COWS would have had to have gone
without food or water. They are all
better. Mr.. d. a. Barron's family and
others in the community have the
measles, but are getting on all right,
am told.
Mr.. Robinson Cook is still ginning
cotton.
ForestHill school, which has been closed
for several weeks on account Of measles,
resumed on last Monday. y.

hole, and Mr.. Glenn testified that Allison
had called his attention to the fact that
Mr.. McGill had repaired it. There are
some other points but these practically
constitute the case.
The warrant in the case was sworn out
by Inspector Pierce, in October last, and
the matter has since been in the hands OF
Deputy Marshal Dobson. Allison, who
is kind of preacher, has not been aware
of the fact that he was suspected; but has
been moving from place to place so much
that he was particularly hard to catch.
When Deputy Marshal Dobson finally
ran upon him, he was located on the plan
tation of Mr.. VIM. Dobson, where he had
made a contract to work for year.

of the fair weather we have had lately,

\ considerable amount of stubble land

FOR EVERYBODY TO KNOW.

"There was no reason in the world why
that poor Negro should have been allowed
to die, except pure downright ignorance" ,"
remarked DR.. Miles Walker, yesterday
The doctor had just heard the full partic-
ulars in the case of Bud Kelly, the Negro
bow who was reported in WEDNESDAYS
ENQUIRER as having bled to death from
an accidental slash of an axe, sustained
while cutting wood.
1t seems that at the time the accident
occurred, there were several Negroes
With the boy. When the seriousness OF
the wound became apparent, they en-
deavored to assist their unfortunate
companion to his cabin. Kelly managed
to walk a few hundred yards; but could
90 no further. Then he was put on a
horse. A few minutes afterward he was
too weak to ride, and a buggy was
procured. In this he was taken to his
cabin, and a physician was sent for'
The physician sent word that it was too
late for him to do anything, and did
not go.
"No," continued DR.. Walker, There
was absolutely no reason why the poy
should have been allowed to die. II the
Negroes who were with him had only
known enough to put stout cord-a
bandage from one of their shirts would
have answered-around the boys leg
above the cut, and, by means of stick,
twisted it tight, the flow of blood could
have been stopped, at least till help
arrived, and then any physician could
have done the rest. But even after their
failure to do this, it was not too late to
send for doctor, so long as there was
life left in the boys body. Up to few
years ago, the loss of certain amount
of blood meant sure death; but now all
that is changed. So long as there is life,
there is more than a reasonable chance OF
ensuring recovery. Had Il physician been
present before this boy, for instance, died,
the first thing he would have done would
have been to open vein, insert syringe
and pump in a properquantity OF slightly
salt water. This would have taken the
place of the lost blood, new corpuscles
would have begun to form almost imme-
diately, and within week or ~ days, the
boy would have again been i'll his normal
condition"
