of scantling in his baud (indicat-
ing). The State put up witnesses to
show that CRUDE was left handed,
and thus da naged Chafin's self
defense.
Miss Stella Bobs has since the
trial made an affidavit that she
had known CRUDE and thai he was
ambidextrous. When playing
cards or writing he could use
either hand. Miss Bobs is her
self left handed, and for that re-
son was particularly impressed
with Grube's faculty.
Mr.. w. H. CeIy also made an
affidavit that CRUDE could use
either hand. This made it posi-,
BILE for CRUDE to have had a stick
in his right hand with combative
intent when Chaffin shot him.

Florence Blue Laws
The Sale of Ice, Cigars and Soda
Water Are Forbidden ON the
Sabbath. $25 the Penalty.
Special to The State.

Opeclal to lhe State.
Florence, June 15.-Sunday
reform has struck Florence.
Council inaugurated the move
ment at its last meeting by tacking
an ammendment onto the ice or
dinance that tied it hard and fast,
making the trouble to secure ice
on the Sabbath So great, that few
persons will care to bother about
it, even in cases of sickness.
To the cigar and soda water
stands the wave of reform has
spread and, beginning with tomor-
row, all such places will be forced
to suspend traffic on Sunday.
Chief of Police j. G. Brunson has
notified all the drug stores and
hotels to close their cigar and tob-
acco cases, and 1T is expected that
all will comply, though the hotels
are disposed to make kick No
cold drinks can be sold.
The city ordinance relating to
the observance of the Sabbath is
strict, positively forbidding the
sale of anything except medicines
and drugs, and ice when a cortifi-
cate is presented. Milk can be
delivered at stated times.
City council takes the position
that the ordinance is unnecessary
if not enforced to the letter. The
policemen have orders to look out
for violators of the Sunday law,
the penalty for which is a fine of
not more than $25 or lmprison-
ment of not more than Is days.

Gold in The CataWba
The Bed of the River is Vsrti-
able Gold Mine.

The Charlotte Observer saws
that the gold miners who have
been operating hydraulic plant
in the Catawba river have made
the discovery that the black sand
in the bed of the river is rich with
gold. An assay OF quantity of
this sand recently made, shows
yield of $3.50 per ton. This is an
extraordinarily rich yield, and if
all the sand in the compauy's
workings holds up to it, the re-
suit will he veritable bonanza.
Inasmuch as the bod of tho
Catawba has been washed out i'm
many places by the recent flood,
the bottoms along the river must
be rich in gold dust and n resort
to the primitive system of panning
might prove profitable. Rock

A Free Man Again.
The Governor Has Issued John G.
Chaffin 3 Pardon. A Famous
Greenville Aomlcide.
The State, 18th inst.

The State, 18th inst.
John q. Chafiin was pardoned
yesterday. His is a celebrat ted
case. A little over years ago he
killed Warren K. NJ. CRUDE, an
architect, Chaffin was contractor
and had been doing some building
in Greenville under Grube's
directions. Chaffin was convicted
of murder and sentence to the
penitentary for life. The case
was carrid to the supreme court,
and he entered upon his imprison-
ment in Decsm Dor, 1889. Govern
or McSweeney has for some time
been in receipt of letters and petit
ions begging for the exercise of
executive clemency lin this case.
The reasons suggested were that
the conviction was unjust; and
that, even if Chatfin were guilty,
the condition of his family calls
for pity.
Among those who wrote Gov.
McSweeney were citizens of
Shreveport, La, and of johnson
City, Tenn, where Chaflin had
lived before he came to to Green
vile. Citizens Of those places de
clared that Chaflin was a peaceable
man. A great many prominent
public official and ministers wrote
to the governor in Chaflin's be-
half.
The main point at issue was
whether or not injustice had been
done Chafin. There we're aft
davits submitted to show that
evidence on which Chaffin might
have been acquitted was not sup
Piled in the trial.
The directors of the pcniten
tiary unanimously recommended
pardon. Judge Klugh, who heard
the case, declared that the verdict
was a righteous one In all the
circumstances submitted. Solici-
tor Ansel declined to make a
recommendation.
The two affidavits on which the
governor based his decision were
submitted to show that CRUDE. was

Mrs. John A. Benedict is from

and surrounding country in every
direction for the missing man,
but nowhere could he be found.
