A TRAGEDY RECALLED.-The ar
rival and departure of travelling shows
brings to the minds OF many a tragedy
which occurred in Alexandria on the
occasion of the visit of q circus to this
city nearly half a century ago, and
which caused great excitement in this
city at the time. The tents were
pitched in the neighborhood OF the
Columbus street court house on q
square now covered with houses. At
night the main tent was densely
packed, so much so that part OF the
audience encroached on the ring. The
riDgmaster was foally compelled to
notify those who stationed themselves
too near the horses that they were In
terfering with the performance and II
they did not get back it would be i'm.
possible to continue it. Some moved
away, but others remained and the
circusmeu hurried through the per-
Torrance as quickly as possible.
There we're then rs now mischievous
Young men and boys in Alexandra,
number of whom remained on the
around after the close of the exhibition
In order to have fun, probably imagin-
ing they had not received their
moneys worth at the circus. They
began to annoy the circusmen while
the latter were striking their tents
end preparing to leave the city.
1t is said ropes were cut in some
Instances and the circus men, a ella 50
of men not always overburdened with
patience, soon became eXasperated.
The youngsters every now aud then
emerged from alleys or hiding places
and worried the showmen in one way
or another when one OF the latter, more
brutal than the other, stationed him
self near what had been the foundation
of q hoUss and he was heard to say he
would kill the next one of bis tormen-
tors who passed that way. A young
man named John Walsh was destined
ID be the victim. he started toward
the circus ground and his path led him
by the assassin. The latter Yves armed
with swingle-tree with which he fell
ed Walsh and beat him to death, while
the young man was crying for mercy.
An sttache OF the circus who 1t was
thought committed the murder was
arrested, but there was no positive
proof against the accused and he was
some weeks later released. The trag-
edy caused crcusmen to give Aiexan-
dria the go-by for some time sfterward.

DRAth Of mr. x. B. NIci,nrtX.

Mr.. +. B. McCarty died at his homie
in this city at S o'clock on Tuesday
morning. He had been sick with billions
fever for several weeks, and this, to-
gcthcr with heart trouble, caused his
death. 1t had been thought that he
was entirely out of danger, but he suf-
fered several rclapses, each time grow
ing worse, until the end came.
Mr.. McCarty was born near Denny's
Cross Roads, in Saluda county, in 1867,
and was in his 36th year. He moved
to Newberry some twelve years ago,
and was a clerk in Mr.. Proctor Todd's g
grocery store until 1894, when he went
into business with Mr.. J. II. Hays, un-
der the firm name of Hays & McCarty.
In 1893 the partnership was dissolved,
and Mr.. McCarty continued in the same
business. Since that time he had built
up and conducted one Of the leading
grocery business in this city.
About two years ago he was married
to Mrs. Hattie Duke, Of Opelika, Ala.
who survives him.
| The remains were inferred at Rose
mont Wednesday morning. Services
were conducted by Revs. w. l. Herbert
and G. A. Wright.

PROSPERITY PICNIC.
Tho People OF Prosperity HSvo Pleasant
Days Outing in :'uiumbia

Some time ago Mr.. e. o. Counts,
superintendent of the Lutheran Sunday
School at Prosperity, began making az
rangements for picnic by his school
to be held at Hyatt's Park, in Colum-
bia. Invitations were extended the
Methodist, Baptist and Associate Re-
formed Sunday Schools to join in the
movement, and they did. On Tuesday
morning a special train was chartered
over the c., N. and l.. road to carry the
party, which consisted Of about five
hundred persons. All the places of
business had been closed and nearly cv-
erybody in town went to the picnic, and
a most enjoyable day was spent in
the capital city.
The picnicers were met at the depot
in Columbia with special cars and car
ried Immediately to Hyatt's Park. At
ter the picnic they were carried for a
ride on the cars around the city.
When the people of Prosperity take
a notion that they are going to enjoy
themselves they can be counted on to
do so, and it was the generally express
ed opinion of each member of the party
that it would be hard matter to spend
a more pleasant day than he spent on
Tuesday.

MIR. FLOYD BUYS EXCHANGES
New Owna Telephone Lines In Fifteen
TownR-Wnl Improve aud Perfect
His Syatem.

The State Of Wednesday contained
the following:
cit was reported here yesterday that
the Citizens Telephone company of
Spartanburg and the Home Telephone
company of Greenville were sold at
auction on the 23rd and Oath instant at
burg, respectively, by Mr.. A. G. Fur
man, trustee, to satisfy a mortgage for
$50, 600 given on both plants by L. w.
Floyd, of Newberry, and G.. A. Brown
ing, of Greenville. Both of the plants
were purchased by Mr.. Floyd, the
Spartanburg plant for 1923, 900 and the
Greenville for $40, 200, subject to two
mortgages aggregating $5,224. Both
of these plants were built to compete
with the Southern Bell Telephone and
Telegraph company, and were quite
prosperous for time. There were but
two bidders on the plants, Mr.. J. H.
Haynesworth, of Greenville. and Mr..
Floyd
Representatives of the Southern Bell
Telephone and Telegraph company at
tended the sale, but took no part in
the bidding. Mr.. Floyd will probably
continue to operate the plants although
ne has as yet given out no statement
for publication.
Mr.. Floyd when seen yesterday said
that the above is practically correct
With these two systems he now owns
exchanges in fifteen different towns
! and cities Of this State, as follows
Prosperity, Newberry, Clinton, Union,
Pacolet, Spartanburg, Greenville, For

Mr.. Floyd has already begun work
on the further improvement of his sys-
TEN. He says that he intends within
the next few months to connect all has
various exchanges together and with
Columbia. He will also put in metal
lie current and double wire.
This news will be received With
pleasure by the people of Newberry.
We have long felt the need of goot
telephone connections with other towns
and especially with Columbia. Mr.
Floyd is to be congratulated upon hi
enterprise and ability in this matter.

THE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES MATTER.
Newberry Bar Association III olds q Meeting
aud Gives Reasons why Special Term
or Court Was not Held In April,

1t will be remembered that during
the early part of this year the Newber-
ry Bar Association asked for special
term of the Court of Common Pleas in
order to clear crowded docket. The
petition was granted and Hon. w. F.
Stevenson, then speaker of the House
of Representatives., was appointed Judge.
Some time after this the Bar asked
that the order granting the special
term be annulled, which was done.
Mr.. Stevenson is now in the race for
attorney general, and on the stump Mr..
U. x. Gunter, his opponent, has made
the assertion that the Newberry Bar
asked that the special term not be held
because Mr.. Stevenson, the Judge ap-
pointed, was corporation lawyer, be-
ing attorney for the Seaboard Air Line
Railway.
The Newberry Bar held meeting
yesterday morning, at which time a
statement was gotten up giving the
reasons which prompted them in asking
for the special term, and then for it's
withdrawal. This report will be sent
Mr.. Stevenson and Mr.. Gunter.
The report states that even before
the order was issued granting the
special term movement was on foot
to have this extra term called off for
the reason that it was found that it
would not suit many members Of the
Bar. AS soon as the order was made
known a meeting was held on March
25th for the purpose of considering the
advisability of asking that the order be
annulled. In this meeting the reasons
advanced were, tirst, Inconvenience to
the Bar, and then that agricultural con-
ditions had so changed as seriously to
affect the convenience of jurors. The
objection against Mr.. Stevenson on
account Of his connection with the rail
road was suggested by only three men,
bers of the Bar, representing two firms.
Even these expressed the utmost conf
dence in his personal ability and integ-
rity. They stated that there were some
cases against the Seaboard Air Line
and other railways which they did not
wish Mr.. Stevenson to try. But in the
whole discussion there was disclaimer
of any intention to reflect upon the
character of Mr. Stevenson as man
or his ability as lawyer.
