TWO SAD ACCIDENTS NEAR
COLUMBIA,

The following special TO the
Times. Democrat from Columbia,
dated Sept. oath, says:
"a sad accident betell Mr.. Jabus
Wilkes, a young man of the Holi-
day Creek neighborhood, fifteen
miles northeast of Columbia, early
yesterday morning, the particulars
of which, as near % can be learned,
are about as follows: Young Wilks
left his home riding horseback ear
ly In the morning TO go over to a
neighbours house carrying his Mar
lin rife on his shoulder, He rode
up to the gate and started to lower
his gun to the ground on the inside
of the fence, when the horse be-
came frightened and jumped eight
~ to one side, causing the hammer
to strike against the fence and the
she'll exploded, the bullet entering
near the left nipple and coming out
at the back, killing him instantly.
The young man was just entering
his majority, and was of most ex.
cellent family, and bis sad death is
deplored. His father died sudden.
ly a few months ago from q stroke
of paralysis.
"At nearly the same time of day a
few miles east of where this TRACE
dy occurred another was being en-
acted which was equally as sad and
distressing as the one mentioned
above, in the neighborhOod of Ad-
vsnce, at the house of Mr.. Oolum.

or and mill man of that station.
1t seems that some of the girls and
children of the place had been play
ing with an unloaded pistol belongs
ing to Mr.. Mcdonald. and had left
it lying on the bed. Soon after
ward MIR. Mcdonald told his Oldest
daughter to get his pistol and load
it and put it where he could get
hold Of it, as he had a settlement
to make that day with quarrel-
some negro and wanted to be pre-.
pared. The woman, ignorant of
the fact that some one had loaded
the pistol since she had been hand
ling it a few minutes before, picked
the pistol up, and thinking it to be
in the same condition as she had
left 1t, pointed it at smaller sister,
aged about fourteen years, pulled
the trigger, and instead of snap a
sharp report followed and the girl
fell dead almost instantly, shot
through the heart. The family are
crazed with grief. The young man
and this young lady who met their
death so suddenly and tragically
will be buried at the same grave.

A CRITICAL TIME
DURING THE BATTLE OF
SANTIAGO.
Sick Or Well, A Rush Night and
Day.

The Packers at the Battle Of San
tiago de Cuba Were all Heroes.
Their heroic Efforts in Getting
Ammunition and Rations to the
Front Saved the Day.
P. E. Butler, of pack-train No.
3, writing from Santiago, De CUBA,
on July 23d, says: eve all had
llarrhOea in more or less violent
form, and when we landed We had
no time to see doctor, fot it was
case of rush and rush night and
day to keep the troops supplied
with ammunition and rations. but
thanks to Cbamberlain's Collie, Chol.
era and Diarrheoa Remedy, we
were able to keep at work and keep
our health; in fact, I sincerely be-
lieve that at one critical time this
medicine was the indirect savior Of
our army, for if the packers had
been unable to work there would
have been no way of getting sup~
plies to the front. There were no
roads that q wagon train could use.
My comrade and myself had the
good fortune to lay in supply of
this medicine for our pack-train
before we left Tampa, and ! know
in four cases it absolutely saYed
life."
