Will Sadler, the Negro who killed John
Shuford, also colored, on the 18th OF De-
cember last, and who has since been IN
the York county Jail awaiting trial on
the charge of murder, was tried at Gaff-
ney City last Tuesday, and after a full

reported in The ENQUIRER at the time.
The Referee Sustained.
Albert Mott, chairman of the L. A. w.
racing board, has rendered his decision,
sustaining Referee T. T. Gilmer in dis
qualifying v. R. Patrick, Of Columbia,
who won in the fve-mile handicap, from
the 26O-yard mark, in Rock Hill, May 70,
for accepting pace from Mr.. Oliver, OF
Charlotte. Schade, therefore, gets first
prize and Halstead second. Mr.. Patrick's
many admirers believe firmly that the
scratch men would never have overtaken
him.
Summer Rates From Charleston.
BY the Charleston papers, it is to be
noted that Yorkville is now recognized as
summer resort, and round trip excur-
sion tickets are being offered for sale for
SlO.9O. If our Charleston friends can only
be made to once realize the numerous ad-
vantages of this place over many others
that are further away from them, we be-
lieve that they will come here in focks
every summer. And those who come
here once, will certainly not be loath to
return.
Military Company In Gaffney.
A military company was organized IN
Gaffney last Friday, says correspondent
of the Columbia State. j. B. Bell was
elected captain; Ed Eison, first lieuten-
ant; n. H. Littlejohn, second lieutenant !;

firstclass material.

Columbia State: The marriage in the
