YOUNG WHITE MAN DIED IN PRISON.
Sad Death of B. F. C0var Of Chester; No
Evidence that Death Was Caused
by Violence.
(The State 17th.)

A sad and somewhat mysterious
death occurred at the State penitentary
yesterday morning. B. F. Covar, a
young white man from Chester, who
was lately imprisoned for theft from
his employees, breathed his last within
the whitewashed walls of the prison
hospital. To ascertain from what cause
he came to his death coroner's jury
was impanelled last night.
Covar, as told in The State a few
days ago, was forwerly employed by
Mr.. J. L. Shull of this city as confden-
tial clerk. On one occasion Mr.. Shull
left the city for short time leaving
Covar in charge of the business. When
he returned he found that Covar had
absconded with some $50 in cash. The
police were notified and inquiries as to
the missing mans whereabouts were
made but no trace of him could be
found. For over a year he was tracked
and though located in several places he
invariably escaped capture until a
week or two ago when he was found in
Chester and landed under the orders of
Sheriff Coleman of this county. He
was brought to Columbia and tried be-
fore magistrate and found guilty.
At the time of his Incarceration in
the Jail he complained of curious pains
in his head and on the advice of DR..
Knowlton, county physician, he was
taken, to the penitentiary hospital.
While in the infrmary he said that he
had had some trouble with some ne
groes in Chester one of whom had
struck him on the head.
Upon investigation it was found that
the negro who he claimed had struck
him was on the chaingang in Chester.
The hester chief of police was notified
and instructed not to release the negro
unless the finding of the coroner's jury
should warrant such action.
The-eeroner's jury met last night and
after investigation decided that the de-
ceased came to his death from natural
causes. DR.. Knowlton's autopsy re-
vealed this fact. Only two witnesses,
Messrs. w. C. Cathcart and Hume
Sigh were examined. They both tes-
tiged as to Covar's arrest and his con-
dition while in Jail.
Covar was native of Edgefeld coun-
ty and was % years of age. His father
arrived last night to take charge of the
body.

LEE A COUNTY.
Supreme Court Removes Obstacles The
Baby County Has Met with In its
Fight for Existence.
TNWs and Courier.

Nws and Courier.
Columbia, December 1.-THE Su-
preme Court has rendered a decision
dismissing the petitionfo an injunction
against the Lee County commissioners,
thus bringing to an end the many OBJ
staeles the baby county has met with
in it's fight for existence. The deci-
sion was rendered by Justice Jones and
was unanimously .concurred in by the
other Justices. The decision is long
and goes into detailed argument in
reference to the various points raised,
but concludes, after carefully consider
ing the matter, that the petition should
be dismissed upon the ground that it
fails to state a cause of action, the
facts not warranting the injunction.
The gist of the whole decision is that
no tribunal other than the Legislature
has been appointed to determine
whether the constitutional provisions
are complied with, and the Act by
which Lee County was formed, recites
that all conditions mad been complied
| with. The determination of the exis-
tence of such facts cannot be assailed
by evidence impeaching the same, the
Legislature having power to determine
| such facts, no fraud or deceit being i'm
putable to the Legislature.
It was somewhat of a confidence that
the sheriff of Lee telegraphed to the
Governor this morning that he wanted
to hold certain prisoner, and saying
there was some question as to his au-
thority to do so. The decision came in
time for the Governor to tell him that
there was no doubt him being legally a
sheriff and to proceed with his duty.
This county has had many troubles
since it's inception. One Act creating
it was declared unconstitutional, and
when another election was held great
opposition developed to forming the
county by act of the Legislature, the
same argument being used against it
as was presented before the Supreme
Court.
