STORY OF A SLAVE

To be bound hand and foot for
years by the chains of disease is
the worst form of slavery. Geo.
d Williams, of Manchester, Mich
tells how such a slave was made
free. He says: "My wife has
been so helpless for five years that
she could not turn over in bed
alone. After using two bottles
of Electric Bitte-s, she is wonders
fully improved and able to do her
own work" This supreme remedy
for female diseases quickly cures
nervousness, sleeplessness, maIan-
choly, headache, backache, faint
ing and dizzy spells. This mira.
Gle working medicine is a godsend
to weak, sickly, run down people.
Every bottle guaranteed. Only
so cents. Sold by Crawford Bros
Druggist.

UNDER ARMS IN GREEN
WILLIE.
Hours of Intense Excitement in
the Mountain City-OnVerge
of Race War.

A special from GreenviIle says:
There was little sleeping done in
that city Sunday night. Negroes
and whites were armed and a gen
uine race war at one time seemed
inevitable. A negro named lack
Brown was arrested by crowd
of operatives from the Poe mill
on the charge of having fired into
the house of an operative. The
man was taken to Jail, but it was
reported at the negro churches
whore services were in progress
that the mill people were going to
lynch Brown. In an incredibly
short time the churches were emp
ty and the negroes appeared in the
mill quarters under arms. There
has been no trouble between the
races since a negro was lynched
there for murder FIVE years ago.
The sheriff could do nothing.
He told the negroes Brown was
safe in Jail, but they refused to
believe him. In the meanwhile
the whites had armed and were
on the streets, while the military
company assembled at is armory
and was served ammunition. -
There was some firing in the heart
of town, and between squads of
the two races on the outskirts. -
Ben Odam, white, was shot in the
jaw. Five negroes were wounded.
Two negro leaders, one a preach
er, were finally persuaded TO 90
to the jail and satisfy themselves
as to Brown being there. The
announcement of Browns safety
was made early in the morning,
and the hostile parties began to
scatter.

HERBERT S. ELLERBE
DEAD ON THE TRACK.
Belief That He was Murdered
and Body Placed on Track.
Was Brother of Late Governor.
Remains Horribly Mangled-
Body Was Found by a
Negro.
Special to The State.

Special to The State.
Florence, Aug 5.-Thursday
night Herbert S ElIerbe, brother
of the late Gov EIlerbe, was killed
either by the fast southbound
passenger train No. 35, or else by
foul play and placed on the track
to conceal the crime. The acci-
dent happened between Sellers
and Latta, and was not known 10
Florence until late yesterday after
noon. A negro coming along the
track yesterday morning discover
ed the mangled remains and re-
ported his discovery to the agent
at Latta, who notified the coroner
of Marion county and j Del oh
OF this city who investigates such
matters for the Atlantic Coast
Line.
The accident was horrible in
every detail. Portions of the
mans body we're found strewn
along the track to Pee Dee bridge,
and it is said when the train ar.
rived at Charleston some of his
clothing and a part of the re,
mains were taken from the trucks
of the rear Pullman car. The
crew were not aware or the acci
dent until the train reached Char
lesion.
1t s almost impossible to tel
how the accident occurred, bu
from the fact that the unfortunate
man that day sold tobacco a
Latta, the theory of foul play
has been advanced. When founc
his trousers pockets we're turned
inside out, and one cent was founc
upon his person, although it il
stated when last seen he had $5
1t might be that he was murdered
and placed upon the track.
Mr. Ellerbe was about 20 ycart
old and was unmarried. The re
mains were inferred at the family
burying ground at Sellers.

NEARLY FORTY KILLED.
Trolley Car Fell Forty Feet Or
a TreStle Near Bridgeport.
Car Struck Bottom Up Crushing
Life Out of Imprisoned Pas
sengers- Few Escaped
Instsnt Death.

Bridgeport, Conn, Aug. G.
Nearly 40 people we're killed by
an accident on the Stratford eX.
tension of The Shelton Street L II
Company at O'Clock this after
noon when loaded trolley car
went off the trestle over Peck's
mill pond at Oronoque, about six
miles North of Bridgeport, and
sank in the fats 40 feet below
Thus far 36 people are known to
be dead and several more injured.
Only two persons are known to
have escaped unharmed.
The scene of the accident is mid
way between Shelton and B.idge-
port. The car was northbound,
running toward Shelton. 1t was
/ in charge of conductor John Car
roll of Bridgeport, who was among
! the killed, and Motorman Hamil-
ton, of Bridgeport, who escaped
by jumping.
The trestle is 440 feet long, ma @
of iron, with stone foundations,
and was not protected by guard
rails. South of the trestle is an
incline down which the car ran at
a high rate of speed. After it ran
on to the trestle for about ten feet,
the trucks left the rails and then
the car continued on the ties for
about Is feet, when it went off the
trestle and dropped into the pond
below, overturning completely. -
When the car struck the four ton
motor and the heavy trucks crash
ed into it, instantly killing many
of the passengers.
All of the persons killed sustain.
ed fracture' skulls. VIM Kelley
of Bridgeport, escaped (eath by
jumping from the car as he felt it
swaYIng to the flats below. He
sustained severe shock but was
otherwise uninjured.
He stated tonight that the cars
were not running unusually fast,
but that the car was swaying con-
siderably when it struck the tres
tie and he realized the danger and
knew his only safety was in jumps
ing.
1t has been asccrtained that 40
fares were registered, and these
with the young children that did
not have to pay, the motorman
and conductor and an extra mo.
torman who was being taught,
make the probable number on the
car Al.

Lively Affair in Columbia.
Jim Campbell Uses a Buggy Whip
on DR.. Kendall-Story of
Unfortunate Affair.
The State, Sth inst.

hO SlakO, Clu luSI.
The Richland county court house
was yesterday the scene of most
unfortunate occurrence. Growing
out of the charge that came by
way of Greensboro that Young
Jim Campbell of this city was sus.
pected and being shadowed for
taking the Kendall diamonds, came
an encounter in which Jim Camp
bell attacked DR.. Kendall with n
piece of buggy whip, and as a re-
suit of which that young man, his
brother, Mr. R EH Campbell, clerk
in the county Auditor office, and
his father, County Treasurer
Campbell, have been arrested and
will have to answer at the court
of General Sessions for assault
and battery with intent to kill
The whole thing occurred quickly
and was over before those in the
offices on that floor realized that
anything unusual was going on.
1t seems that as DR.. Kendall
was coming through the hall he
was met by Jim Campbell, who
had a piece of a buggy whip In his
hand. After few words young
Campbell struck DR.. Kendall sew
eral times with the whip quite Sc
verely. MIR r f Campbell was
also there; accounts vary as to
what he did. Finally DR. Kendall
rushed into Judge Rays office. -
That gentleman was sitting quiet
ly at his desk. DR. Kendall asked
tor a pistol in very excited man
ner. Before Judge Ray could re-
alize the situation jim Campbell
entered The door and running up
brought his whip down over DR..
Kendall's head with great force.
DR. Kendall grabbed a brass edged
ruler on the desk and faced Camp
bell striking at him. Campbell
caught the ruler in his hand. 1t
cut the flesh and was broken. Then
the two clinched and began to
struggle about the office. AT this
time Judge Ray noticed that Mr.
r K Campbell was standing inside
the door with pistol in his hand,
the weapon being in the direction
of DR. Kendall. In struggling the
two men got near Mr. Campbell.
At this juncture Judge Ray reach
ed Mr. Campbell and told him to
give him that pistol. This Mr.
Campbell did without demur. In
the meantime County Treasurer
Campbell who was in the sheriff 5
office came up the hall followed
by the sheriff and others. DR..
Kendall says Mr.. Campbell
caught hold of him. Mr.. Ray is
positive that the treasurer took no
hand whatever in the encounter,
for he had hardly gotten inside
the door when Sheriff Cathcart
and others entered and separated
the combatants.
DR.. Kendall sustained some
severe blows from the whip,
several making ugly bruises on
his arm and one blow making a
dis6gurIng bruise under his eye.

A HORRIBLE ACCIDENT
AT BAR HARBOR.
Scores Of EXCuTSiOniStS to See
War Ships Drowned.
The Gang Plank Broke in Twain.
At Least $50 People Precipita-
ted Lotto the Water.

Bar HOrbor, Me-, Aug "a
score of persons were killed to.
day by the collapse of the gang
plank of the Mount Desert Ferry.
The Maine Central railroad to-
day ran excursions to Bar Har-
Dor from all sections of its line in
Maine, the attraction being the
warshlps which we're expected to-
day.
All the morning long trains
packed with excursionists we're
rushing to Bar Harbor. The
train which left Bangor at SPA
consisted of y cars jammed with
people. At Mount Desert ferry,
the terminus of the line, passen-
gers have to leave the train and
take the boat for an eight mile
sail to Bar Harbor. From the
wharf slip or gang plank 40
feet long and 10 feet wide led up
to the boat. The slip was hinged
at the inner end, the outer end
being supported by chains by
which it was raised or lowered to
suit the tide. The wharf extends
on both sides flush with the
wooden gang plank. Five tim
bers 4 by II inches, set vertically,
ran the length of the plank and
these were crossed by two inch
pIanking.
1t Is said that there was no
support for the plank between the
hinges and the outer end.
When the excursion train from
Bangor arrived at the ferry there
was a rush for the steamer Sappho.
The first few passengers had
crossed the gang plank safely and
it is estimated that 200 people
were massed upon the plank.
Suddenly they felt the plank give
way beneath them. The long
timber supporting the plank broke
in the middle. The hinges held
up one end and the chain the
other, while the broken ends of
the plank dropped and n strug-
gling, screaming mass of humani
ty was plunged into the water Is
feet below tho wharf. A few clung
to the inclined sides of the plank,
but at least $50 were struggling
in the water. The piIing of the
wharf partially penned them in on
three sides and the boat lying at
the wharf closed the outer end Of
the opening. After the first
moment of stupefaction the work
of rescue began. Ropes and life
preservers were thrown to the
crowd, but in the pane the peo>
pie in the water clutched one an
other, and many sank thus in
groups in a death grapple. Many
, taken from the water were un-
conscious and were revived
with difficulty. Doctors were
summoned from all directions,
but it was half an hour before
the first arrived. The freight
house at the ferry was turned in
to a morgue, the bodies being
taken there for Identification as
fast as recovered. By noon II
had been recovered. Three other
persons were taken on board the
Sappho and died on the way tc
Bar Harbor.
The exact number of dead will
not be known for some time vet,
as a strong tide sweeps under the
pier and some bodies may have
been carried away by it. A diver
who was set to work. without de.
lay, was engaged in his search
until 8 o'clock, but only II bodies
were found
