Relatives in South Carolina Fall Out
over Political Results.

Columbia, S. c., Sept. 19.-News has
just reached here of a fatal shooting
scrape at Hampton, between Archie
and T. Hagood Gooding on one side.
and Perry Kearse and one of Kearse's
brothers on the other. Archie Gooding
received three bullets, enc killing him.
Perry Kearse was shot in the leg. put
his wound Is not dangerous.
The trouble seems to have grown out
of the election just passed.
1t seems that T. Hagood Gooding. a
young lawyer and recently a student
of the South Carolina College, was de-
feated for the Legislature. after a
somewhat heated campaign. and this
may have had something to do with
the encounter.
Gooding headed the ticket in the first
primary, but did not get votes enough
to have a majority. and in the second
primary he came out last in the race.
The Goodings are sons of Mr.. !. j.
Goodfng, who was reelected county
auditor, and nephew of Col. w. ].
Gooding, for many years prominent in
state politics and now one of the re-
gents of the state hospital for the in
sane. The man who was killed was
town marshal.
The Ke2rse brothers are cousins of
the Goodings, but are said to have diff
fered with them in county politics.

Heavy Suit for False imprisonment
and Malicious Arrest.

Waycross, Ga, Sept. 19.-W. e. Cal
houn, who yesterday filed suit
against Mr.. George r. Youmans of
this city for $4,000 damages for false
and malicious arrest, Imprisonment
and prosecution, states that he had not
disposed of the watch which he had
purchased from Mr.. Youmans having
only left il temporarily in Jacksonville,
intending to get it upon his return. He
says that he was enormously convict
ed and sentenced in the City Court of
Waycross, but that the same was set
aside upon his motion and the proceed
ing thereupon mol pressed on motion
of the solicitor of said court.
The Mayor and Council of Waycross
are using every effort to put stop to
the rowdyism which has been going on
at night for several months past in a
certain disreputable section of the city.
A short time ago Mayor Youmans re-
quested the hacknen not to carry any
one out to these disreputable houses
after 10 o'clock at night, especially if
they should be under the influence of
liquor Last night the police arrested
two of the hackmen for disobeying the
Mayors request and they were brought
up before Mayors Court this morning.
MIR. Youmans lectured the hack driv-
ers and ordered their release, stating
that there was no law at present to
convict them. Mr.. Youmans and mem
bers of the City Council are determined
to pass an ordinance that will stop
the disorderliness at the disreputa BILE
houses, and will in all probability dis
cuss the matter at their next meeting,
The colored people are arranging for
a great educational mass meeting and
rally to be held at Gaines Chapel in
this city on Sunday afternoon. A num-
Der of the most prominent speakers

HORSE IN RAILROAD OFFICE.
Runaway Spreads CONSERVATION
Among Coast Line Clerks.

Runaway Spreads CONSERVATION
Among Coast Line Clerks.
Jacksonville, Fla, Sept. 1s.-The At
lantic Coast Line officials here are polk
ing fun at the other railroad men be-
cause of an incident in connection with
a runaway horse. which occurred a
day or two ago. While the clerks in
the ticket office of the Atlantic Coast
Line, which opens directly on Bay
street, were busy at their desks, a
runaway horse, maddened with terror
and with harness flying, came dashing
in through the open doorway, and
made a bee-line for the rear hallway.
where the animal slipped and fell, but
exit by the side door of the Aston
building. When the horse came
pounding in the office his iron shod
hoofs making a great clatter on the
wooden floor there was naturally some
CONSERVATION among the railroad
clerks. No damage was done by the
runaway, however, and now the At
lantic Coast Line men are trying to
tell the rest of Transportation Row
that the Atlantic Coast Line is the
only route, and that even the animals
show their preference for it. The rum
away horse had kicked himself loose
from a buggy in front of the postor-
flee, and had gained such Roadway
that ne could not stop himself on
reaching the doorway of the railroad
Office.

SUGAR STATISTICS.
Incuease in Consumption of the
Product Has Been Marked.

Incuease in Consumption of the
Product Has Been Marked.
Washington, Sept. 19.-The people Of
the United States now consume eight
times as much sugar per capita as they
did in the first quarter of the last CEN
fury, four times as much as the aver
age per capita during the decade end
ing with 1850, and twice as much as
they did in any year prior tn 1870. In
the years Immediately prior to 1925 the
average consumption of sugar was
about eight pounds per capita, in the
decade of 1S40-50 about 16 pounds per
capita, in the years Immediately prior
to 1870 the average was about go
pounds per capita, emitting the war
years. in which the consumption was
Light, from 1870 to 1880 it averaged
about 40 pounds per capita, from 1880
to 1890, so pounds per capita; in 1891
the figure was 66 pounds per capita,
and has ranged from 81 to IS pounds
per capita since that time, the figure
for 1901 being 6S.4 pounds. This steady
growth in the per capita consumption
of sugar is shown by some figures
which the Bureau of Statistics will pre-
sent in the next issue of it's annual
volume the Statistical Abstract. The
per capita consumption has been a
matter of record during recent years,
but it has not been before practicable
to compare the per capita consumption
of recent years with that of earlier
years and to note the very rapid in
crease in the quantity consumed by
each individual of the country.
This growth in the consumption of
sugar is, evidently. not confined to the
people of the United States. The in
crease seems to have been equally
rapid in other parts of the world. judg-
ing from the figures of total produce
ton. Figures recently published by
the Bureau of Statistics in it's mono
graph THE Worlds Sugar Production
and Consumption" showed that the SUI
gar production of the world
was eight times as great in
for 1S40 being 1,15O,000 tons, and that
for 1900, S,S0O,0O0 tons. This increase
in production, and consequently in con-
sumption, has come largely through
the development of the beet sugar in
dustry. which increased from a produc-
ton of $4,000 tons in 1910 to 200, 900 tons
in 1850, $4,000 tons in 1870 .402 600 tons
in 1880, 3,63S.00O tons in 1890, and s.
$780, 900 tons in 1900. During the same
time. cane sugar production increased
from 100000 tons in 1910 to 1850 600
tons in 1900. Beets in 1910 supplied ABS
per cent. of the total sugar product of
the world; in 1850 they supplied 1929
per cent; in 1860, AZ per cent; in
1870, 4.40 per cent. in 1890, IS. 20 per
cent, and in 1900. 81. II per cent.
The per capita consumption of sugar
in the United States is greater than
that of any other country, except the
United Kingdom. in which the annual
consumption ranges from IS to 81 pounds

in.the United States, the figure of con-
sumption for 1900 in the United King

ropean countries in 1900 the latest

Orlando, Fla. Sept. 19.-It was dis
covered later in the day. Wednesday,
that the Seminole Hotel fire at Win
ter Park cost a young colored man his
life. During the fire there was appar-
emily an explosion inside which forced
out a large section of one of the walls
The falling wall came near catching
several spectators. But it was not
known until about noon that anyone
had been caught in the fall
Talbot Wilson, a young negro mad
been assisting in carrying out furni-
ture, and as he did not return to his
home and has not been seen by anyone
of his acquaintance since then. 1t is
accepted that the charred and unrer-
ognizable human body found under
this burning wreckage was his. No one
else has disappeared. His parents
claimed the body and buried it.
AS time passes the business interests
of this entire county begin to compre-
bend the extent of the loss occasioned
by the burning of the Seminole. There
is hardly an interest here that will not
be either directly or indirectly affected.

Efforts VIII BE Made to Harmonic
TattnaII Political Differences

Hinesville, Ga, Sept. 19.-Delegates
from the Second Senatorial district
will assemble here tomorrow and
nominate DR.. J. L. Mclean, Tattnalrs
choice in the recent primary, for SEN
ator. The Democratic Executive Com
mittee is called to meet here at 10 a.
m. tomorrow, * is thought for the
purpose of inducing some OF the num-
erous candidates, there being three
each for the Office of sheriff and tax
collector and two for tax receiver, to
retire and have only one white as
pirant for each office. For the first
time since the war the whites have a
registration list somewhere near 200
ahead of the negroes, and can easily
fill any office from coroner down to
ordinary if the purchasable vote could
only be eliminated.
Contractor Mobiles is making rapid
Roadway on the new Methodist Church
building, and will turn it over to the
Building Committee in two or three
weeks.
The Liberty Independent Troop and
their friends are making extensive
preparations for the reception of the
Governor and his staff at the armory
here next Wednesday, Sept. "a. The
Governor will review the troops and
make an auuresS during lne udys anu
at night a banquet will be given in
his honor.
The County Commissioners have fix
ed the tax rate at 81 on the thousand.
The county has a full treasury. These
facts, coupled with the vast area of
fertile, virgin soil, should be a great
inducement to homeseekers.
Cotton is coming into town at live
ly rate, and Hinesville bids fair to be-
come one of the leading interior cot
ton markets of Southeast Georgia. An
abundant pea, corn, cane and potato
crop is also being harvested. and the
people are not losing any sleep on ac-
count of the gigantic trust formations.
