Look Or. to- Burglars.

Williston, in Aiken County, was
visited by burglars one night last
week. The store OF the Wiliiston Sup.
ply company was entered through the
front door, the safe blown open and
robbed OF about $3.50. The postotiice
was broken into also, aud q safe dyna-
mite6 but it proved to be the wrong
one. The office had changed hands
Wednesday. Miss Marie Harley tax
ing the place of Mr.. E. Z Bruce, and
and all the moneys, stamps, etc, had
bsen changed from the old safe to q
new one. The old safe was the one
Ichosen for destruction and from it
they got nothing. The new safe con-
tained 800 CT $500. It was not troo,
bleG. Three strangers spent Sunday
plight at the Willistcn Inn aud we're
seen in town "Wednesday. The Inn
porter says he saw these men ganb,
ling with some negroes Sunday after,
noon, hut he did not inform the pro.
prietor Of this until they had gone.
These are the suspects. Teleerams
havs been sent in several directions
IN the effort to intercept them. One
of the men was about 50 years old,
one about 25 and the other seemed to
be not over is. The above is taken
from the State. a special to the Reg
ister from Batesburg says: Three
well dressed white men, supposed TO
pc he Williston safe burglars, were
captured here tonight and are now in
the lookup. They made their appear.
ance IL town about 7;30 o'clock this
evening, coming across the country,
from the direction of Willistcn. At.
ter taking supper q! the hotel, they
went out on the streets, where their
general appearance, taken IN connec-
ton with the way in which they came
to town, aroused suspicion. About 8
O'Clock the town marshal, accompa-
MED by a score Of citizens, approach
ed the trio and told them to consider
themselves under arrest. They imme-
diately Showed fight" and, drawing
pistols, told the citizans to stand back,
on pain Of getting their heads shot
of. In an instant the suspects were
covered By a score Of pistols, where
upon they quietly submitted to arrest.
They gave their names as Charlie
Jones, Harry Jo0es and Joe John
stop. When searched th2Ie was found
upon their persons $40 ia silver three
pistols, several valuable diamonds,
anG number Of pieces OF fuse. There
is little doub: that they are genuine
crooks.

THE COMMON CRIME OF MURDER.
Its Woirl Prevalence Throughout the
Cotted States.

There is rot State Or Territory in
the Union IN which there is not trla!
for murder pending. IL the State OF
Kentucky thsr5 are forty seven cases
concerning ninety one prisoners for
murder awaiting trial. In Virginia
there are at least twonty.three charges
OF murder. n the first State only
seven OF the men IN Jail to be tried 1or
the capital offence CT murder are ne
groes; II Virginia there are eight.
North Carolina has twenty cases or
more, Georgia twenty-sevea, L31t;slsn
score, Texas thirty two cr thlrty-
three, Missouri twenty.four, Illinois
sixteen, Indiana seven, Michigan
three, OHIO eight, Pennsylvania
twenty six. New York forty-two Cen
uect;cut, Rhode Island and Eerlcnt
one each. New Hampshire has just
settled one OF her three by sentence
of thirty years imposed upon craz:d
assassin. California has twenty-seven
cases on her docket, and. altogether,
with dlzen more or less, there are
2S0 charges OF murder on the criminal
dockets OF the various States and
Territories. South Carolina, we re
gret to say. has her full share and
more. Some of these have only passed
as yet from the hands OF the coroner
Or committing magistrates, others are
on trial, some are on appeal, and a
few nave gone through all the Judicial
procedure, ard the convicted men are
only awaiting the executive action OF
the law to complete their record.
There IS no dominating cause OF these
crimes, unless 1t be that in the large
cities they are more frequently con
necGed with robbery. Love, revenge.
madness, pure thirst OF shedding.olood
gain, JEALOUSY, political wrangles,
family feuds and dcuukaa brawlS are
q few Of the sources from which the
homicide acts have origin. Some
seem not to have even the plea OF
madress, to which so mary OF the
causeless crimes are referred. l. IS a
