On Thursday night last, Mr.
Lewis Peach, charged with assault
and battery with intent to kill,
made his escape from the Jail at
thiS place by raising ii window in
The room where he was lodged.
Mr. Peach was threatened with
pneumonia and was brought down
stairs by our kird hearted jaiIor
until he c Duld ldrccupcrate. Imagine
the surprise of Jailor Wilson on
Friday morning to find that the
prisoner to whom he had shown
such kindness had fed. He Motif
ed Sheriff CIyburn as soon as the
discovery was made and by sun up
the Sheriff was on his way to
Peach's home near Kershaw.
Just asthe Sheriff surmised, Peach
had gone directly home and when
the Sheriff walked in he found him
changing his clothes. He brought
him back and by night he was
securely lodged in his old quarteys.
Peach claimed that he expected to
return to Jail as soon US he had
seen his people and provided him
self with more clothing. He says
a fellow gets homesick after he
stays in the rock house awhile.

A BAD Accident Narrowly Avert

ed.
On Sunday night while return
ing from Chester, via Cureton' S
ferry, Messrs David Lyle and X f
Bell came near having serious
mishap ut Cane Creek. The bridge
is being rebuilt and the carpenters
had laid part of the floor. They
neglected to put any obstruction
at the abutment to prevent persons
driving on the bridge or else the
obstructions had been removed by
some one and these young men
not knowing the bridge was being
worked on, drove ON it. They
just did discover that the bridge
was not entirely fioored in time
to stop their horses and prevent
horses, buggy and oil landing at
the bottom of the big crerk, some
fifteen or twenty feet below.

Stolen Property Recovered and
Theft in Jai',
BIC Hough & Co., have rccov
cred the gun and one of the pistols
stolen from their show window
last Monday night, two weeks ago.
The robbery was traced to Henry
Mcllwain, negro who recently
finished term on the chain gang.
The gun is somewhat damaged by
rust from having been hidden in
the woods about d miles south of
town part of the time. Henry
was committed to Jail. Sam Nc
Twain, his father, is also in Jail
for concealing the stolen property.
The proof is clear against both of
chem and the probability is there
is another yet connected with the
theft.

HOPEFUL VIEW
OF SITUATION
,.,- -
This Winters Campaign viii Accomp-
lish Pacification.
SPAIN WILL FIGHT TO LAST
Surprised That FiIibustering Expeditions
Are Allowed 10 the United
States.

New York, Nov. 22.-The Marquis OF
Apezteguia, the conservative leader in
Cuba. who IS in New York on his way
home from Spain, took hopeful view Of
the Cuban situation. He thinks this win
ter's campaign will accomplish the paci-
heaiion Of most Of the island.
Il Think he said. that with General
Blanco in command that vigorous cam
paign viii be begun and such force win
be used that tire new plans for the gov
ernment Of Cuba will soon be put in
operation. think that after the winter
campaign most OF the island Will be
pacifed. Spain has plenty of resources.
She VIII send more men If necessary.
Rather than suffer her dignity to be
offended, Spain Will fight to the last"
What is the feeling Of Spain toward
the United states?"
The spanaards" he said, who live
under strongly centralized government
find it difficult to distinguish between
the individuals and the nation. The fact
that hlibustering expeditions have been
equipped in this country has caused the
spaniards some surprise. still. on the
whole. the feeding in Spain towards the
United States is friendly. The people OF
the United States must remember that
Spain is engaged in a war and chat inci-
dents which otherwise would be consider
ed unimportant may prove very irr4tat-
ing"
What effect do you think the release
Of the Competitor prisoners will have
upon the relations of Spain and the
United slates?"
1T will undoubtedly cement the friend
ly feeding" he replied. The question
was decided imparrially and upon its
merits by the Spanish authorities. 1 was
surprised" he continued, ''ro read The
utterances Of Ha.nis Taylor 1 had sup
posed when met him in Spain that he
was friend OF Spain His statements
concerning the constitution of Spain, the
practices Of the country and the char
acter of the Spanish people are not grac-
ious and are certainly unfair. His recent
speech saying the United States should
recognize the independence of Cuba Is
surprising"
