Simpsons History.

"Who is this man Sampson?"
Where did be come from?" asks
Senator Tillman, with reference
to Sampson's turning down Gun
nor Morgan, because be was not
born an aristocrat, aocalled. The
answer is given in outline by the
Philadeli i,hia North American aa
follows:
William T. Sampson was born
on farm in Wayne County. N. Y,
February 9, 1S4o. His father
was a day laborer, who immigrat.
ed from the north OF Ireland in
1926 and settled at Palmyra,
on the Erie Canal. As q boy
Sampson attended the district
school during part of each year,
and was required, when not in
the school room, to assist his
father at odd Jobs, which were
given him to do by people in the
village. The Sampson family con-
sisted Of eight children, all Of
whom, including William T., the
elder, spent their early lives in
performing meuial labor, much
Of which was offered them by
charitable friends or ptighbors."
There is nuthing disgraceful in
this, except in accordance with
the standard of social excellence
set up by Sampson him self. Ac-
cording to this false standard
Sampson is plebeian of the

ATTEMPTED RAPE.
a Young Lady Assaulted while
on her Way to Her Duties at

Yesterday morning at few
minutes before six o'clock, the
usual hour for mill operatives to

rape was committed here by q
negro man, at or near the chalk
platform on Southern Railway.
Miss Minnie Lybrand is a nice
young lady who works in the
Warran mill. She lives with
her fathers family about a half
mile this side of the mill. Yester-
day morning she was on her way
to work, along with her sister, and
when between Ovens shop and
the chalk platform a negro man
grabbed her and threw both arms
around her. She struggled with

freeing herself from his grasp.
She then ran into a nearby house,
secured a pistol and returned to
hunt her. assailant. By this time
several gentlemen were upon the
scene and diligent search was
made for the negro, but he had
fed.
News of the occurrence spread
like fire across prairie, and a
large crowd quickly gathered and
hunted the would.be rapist,
who had most successfully made
himself scarce" The young lady
is confident that she can identify
her assailant. thought it was but

dastardly attempt. Some hall 6.
dezsn negroes were taken before
her for deuti6cation, but il each
case she exhonerated the party.
Constable Howard with twelve
picked men went in pursuit of
the fugitive early this morning,
and as it was thought he had gone
toward Aiken the posse headed
that way. If he is caught ne will
very likely be sammarily dealt
with. The searching posse had
