Explosion Shakes Earth Fifty Miles Away.

Marion, Ind, January 15.-Fifteer
hundred quarts of nitro, ,glycerine
stored in two magazines owned by
the st. Mary's Torpedo Company and
the Empire Nitro Glycerine Com
p ,y in ravine % miles south east
of this city exploded this morning
about 1.30 O'clock, shaking the entire
northeastern part of the State.
Business blocks and dwelling
houses shook and swayed as if rocked
by an earthquake and the entire city
was aroused. A yawning hole in
the bottom of the ravine was all that
was left to tell the story.
1t is thought that the explosion
was caused by gas jet which set
fire to the building. So far as known
no one was injured in the explosion.
The nearest house was half mile
away and the occupants escaped
serious injury. Telephone inquiries
received here indicate that houses
were shaken fifty miles away.

South African War Nearing Esd.

London, January 15. King Ed
ward has given the royal indorse-
ment to the belief current among the
public that an early declaration Of
peace in South Africa may be antici-
.pated. t'The war might now be
regarded as approaching its conclu-
sion," were the words used by. his
majesty to-day in addressing the
officers of thesguards after reviewing
a draft of 1920 of the Grenadiers,
Cold Streams and Scots Guards, who
start for South Africa tomorrow.
The Kings speech otherwise was
not important. His majesty was
accompanied by the prince of Wales,
the Duke of Connaught, the Duke of
Cambridge and Lord Roberta, sur-
rounded by brilliant staffs. "A large
gathering of privileged guests viewed
the function.

They went travelling after Hines,
and, poor fellow, he has not been
heard Of since. How sad to think
that he should either be captured Sor
killed after so many brave efforts,
not only in his own behalf, but also
in that Of the general, for the gene
raj says that it is owing chiefly to
Hines enterprise and skill that they.
made their escape.
When he arrived at the river re-
ferfed to above, he tried to get over,
intending to stop that night with q
good Southern man on the other
side. could not get over, and
had to remain at the house Of d
Union man. The next morning he
went to the house he had sought the
night previous, and found the track
of the Yankees, scarcely cold. They
had been there all night, expecting
he would come here, and murdered
every body who had attempted to
reach the house without halting
them: In pursuing this brutal course,
they had killed three young men,
neighbors of this gentleman, and
went away leaving their dead bodies
on the ground.
After he had crossed Obav,a ,.;va,.
and got down into Middle Tennessee,
he found it almost impossible to
avoid recognition. Atone time ne
passed some poor women, and one
OF them commenced clapping her
hands and said, aOh, / know who
that is, / know who that isl" but
catching herself, she stopped short
and passed on with her companions.
The general says that his escape
was made entirely without the as
sistance from any one on the outside,
and so fartaa be l.: s,sfs rs, aiso without
their knowledge of his intention;
that the announcement of his arrival
at Torento was one of those fortui-
tous condolences that cannot be ac-
counted for; that it assisted him
materially no doubt. In fact, he
says that his awife's prayers saved
him, and, as this is the most agreea-
hle way Of explaining it, he is deter.
mined to believe it.
The above account may be relied
on as correct, and, although much.
has been left out, yet enough is
printed to stamp it as one of the
most remarkable escapes in history.

Jury LAW Knocked OUT.
Supreme Court Decides 1t is Unconstitutional.
St Decision Unanimous.

The State Supreme Court has rem
dered decision sustaining Judge
Gary, IN his ruling that the jury law
of Y State is, unconstitutional.
The case was that of the State vs..
A. j. Queen ct al. and went up from
Cherokee county. The appellants,
Queen ct al, were convicted at Gaff-
ney in June, 1901, of riot and assault
and battery with intent to kill. Be-
fore the jury was selected the attor-
ney for the appellants moved to quash
the array OF jurors on the grounds.
Q) because there was no jury law
warranting the drawing of a jury for
Cherokee county, and (2) because
the jury law, if any, was repugnant
to that provision of the constitution
which prohibits special legislation.
This motion was overruled and the
defendants appealed through their
attorney on the ground that his
honor erred in holding the jury law
OF 1900 not repugnant to the consti-
tuition. In reaching its conclusion
the Supreme Court says "it will be
necessary to construe the words sto
summon and empanel jurors" The
respondent contended that these
words did not include the listing and
drawing of jurors. The court held
that the object of the constitution
was to make the jury law uniform
throughout the State and that this
uniformity could not be secured
unless to Summon and empanel
jurors" included also the listing and
drawing of jurors.
The Court also held that it could
not be special provision in gene
raj law, fors'9hile the act purported
to be an amendment it was in fact a
substitute of the general law then in
force and dealt with the whole gues-
tion off drawing and listing jurors,
and, therefore tAust be construed as
an Independent act. The court also
held that it could not be construed
to BIO a valid general law because
genbrel law must be in force in all
they counties of the State as had been
held by the Supreme Court in Dean
VS.. Spartanburg, SO S. @. 10, and
( the provision of the act exempting
Aiken county from its operations
shows that it could not be general
law. The entire act is held to be
fatally Effective in regard to uni
fornlity as required by the constitu-
tion.l The court was unanimous in
its decision and it is a complete
knockout for the jury law. 1t is also
a gre(t victory for Mr.. J. w. Speer,
formeslHof Lowndesville,- who took
the appfil and thus won his case.

We are glad to learn that Mr.

through moving. We are glad to
have him with US. If some of the
farmers around Fair Play will follow
his advice about farming they will
have better success.
Two companies of Gypsies were

horse swaps were made. We hope
some were bettered by the exchange.
The many friends of Mr.. John
Hendricks will be sorry to learn of a
serious accident that happened to
him last week. While on his way
home from Anderson last week his
mule ran away with him and threw
him from the buggy, breaking his
collar bone, one rib and his right
arm. He is getting along very well,
considering his age-91 years. We
hope for his early recovery.
