Americas, Ca, Aug. 1.-THE prohi-
bition campaign in Sumter county, red
hot for a month past, is drawing to a
close and the battle of ballots will be
fought next Thursday. The people of
both town and cunty are worked up to
a pitch of high enthusiasm and a hot
fight for votes is waged here daily by
both vets and drys. Indications point
TO the overthrow of the present farce
of prohibition.
A few days ago some of the prohibs
issued graveyard circular by
which they hoped to show that of those
who died here recently a larger num-
Der were ants than prOhibitionists.
The circular caused a storm NJ wrath,
and last night F. G. Oliver, a prohi-
bitionist, was given a beating by an
outraged citizen for alleged completely

ing out the circulars. which the au-
thorS are making frantic endeavors to
call in and destroy, and other lights
may result. Three thousand voters
arc registered, and there will be hot
times here Thursday.
Americas received ISL bales of cotton

Pupil of COIOred College Charged
The first arrest that has been made
on the Casino grounds was made yes
terday by House Officer Clarke. Ne
groes, as it is known, are forbidden
loon ascension they have been allowed
to be present if they lend a hand TO
hold the big bag while the process Of
imitation is going on.
Yesterday the wind was high and
more than the usual number ofemen
were needed to hold the balloon in
position. A gentleman interested in
the ascension seeing the condition Of
affairs and noting that there were sew
eral young negroes on the grounds who
were giving no assistance, asked them
to help if they wanted to see the as
cension. One, John Thomas, replied
that he didn't haVA to hold the bal
loon" He was told that he'd either
have to do that or get out of the
grounds. He refused to do either, ac-
cording to the statement of the gentle
man, and so officer Clarke was told
to put the man out of the grounds.
Thomas was arrested and locked up,
but later was released on bond. He
will appear before Mayor Nelson to-day
on the charge of resisting an officer
in the discharge of his duty.
Thomas is a son of one of the teach
ers in the colored college. The men
who were with him deny that he re-
sisted the officer and further claim
that he left the Casino grounds when
told to do so, and that when arrested
he was on the other side of the fence
that forms the boundary of the Casino

FELL FROM TROLLY CAR.
Young Man Hurt En- Route From

Young Man Hurt En- Route From
Thunderbolt to City.
Young Mcdonald. the son of B. L.
Mcdonald. city sanitary inspector, was
injured al Thunderbolt yesterday aft
ernoon by falling from a trolley car.
He was a passenger on Car No. sos,
en- route to the city about 7 o'clock,
and so filled with passengers that Nc
Donald could not get a seat and SO
sat on the floor with his feet on the
running board, holding himself in place
by grasping the uprights supporting
the car roof.
When near the turn at the Yacht
Club grounds he was seen to fall from
the car, which was stopped at once.
The conductor and several friends of
the young man hastened back to him,
and found that he was suffering with
a painfully bruised knee. Mcdonald
was unable to walk and so was car
ried to the car on the shoulders of his
friends.
The young man claimed that the
conductor let down the protection bar
on his hands, pinching them so that
he was forced to release his hold, and
that he therefore fell from the car. To
the conductors suggestion that he
wasn't badly hurt, re replied in pretty
strong language that but for the fact
that he was badly hurt he'd lick the
conductor then and there

Negro Preacher Found Guilty in
Orange, n. j., of the Practice.
From the New York Times.
Orange, N. j., Aug. 4-John A. Har-
ris, a negro clergyman, at present
without charge, who was for some
years pastor of the Ebenezer Baptist
Church in Park street. was fined SO
in the Orange Police Court this morn
ing for pra cticing voodooism. The dis
orderly act, under which he was ar
raigned, provides $25 fine or ninety
days in jail as the. maximum penalty
for the offense.
Mrs. Sylvia Robinson was the COM
plainant. She is a servant in a New
ark family. Early in July she spent a
Thursday afternoon holiday with some
friends in Orange. Harris came in, and
everybody began talking about their
troubles" as she expressed it. Harris
left the house, later returned, and told
her he would like to talk to her pri-
vately, so they went into the sitting
room. According to Mrs. Robiuson's
ted, as told to the court, this is what
took place there.

showed me some roots, and said that
one of them was the king root. He said
that If l chewed it I could do things I

chew all the roots, and then to spit in

REASONS FOR NEW TRIAL.
Not Asked for Because of CounsePs
IneXperience.


IneXperience.
The article in the Morning News Sat
urday, relative to the application for
new trial in the case of Robert Sim
mons, is capable possibly of bearing
some unattended construction unfav-
orable to Simon Gazon, one of Sim
mons counsel
The petition of counsel referred to
the fact that Mr.. Gazan had been but
recently admitted to the bar and was
unaccustomed to the management of
criminal cases of first Importance.
While Mr.. Gazan's somewhat limited
experience at the bar may have pre-
vented as rapid preparation of the
case as it might otherwise have had,
it did not prevent his recognition of
the Importance of the evidence it is
now sought to introduce by means of
a new trial.
The ground upon which the new triah
is asked is that the court, by an arbi-
trary mandate, forced the case to trial
at time that did not allow sufficient
time for preparation.
This should be said in justice to Mr..
Gazan, who, all things considered,
made a gallant fight for his clients
life.

KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS.
visitors From Augusta Talk of Their
Coming Visit to Savannah.


Among the Augustans who came
down to enjoy the Tybee breezes yes
terday were several Knights of Column
bus from the Patrick Walsh council of
that city One of them in talking of
the order, said that great preparations
are being made there for the trip to
Savannah in two weeks.
About 35 members are to make up
the party who will come to administer
the first degree" and are counting
on making it a memorable occasion
They promise that their Savannah
brethren shall not forget the event for
several days, at least.
The Augusta council has been estab-
lished but a few months, but in that
time it has grown to great strength
and bids fair to become one of the
strongest in the South where the or
der is comparatively new. The Au-
gustans, among whom are several we'll
known in Savannah, are themselves
going to have a big installation in a
few weeks, and some of the local
knights are going to return the compli-
ment to be paid next Sunday week,
and will go UP to the city on the Sa-
vannah to confer the third degree
These installations are not all serious
work, the light being intermingled
with the heavy, if not pleasantly, at
least forcibly, and in strongly impress
sive way.
Following the actual ceremonies
there will be a collation., at which
speech making will be prominent.

A PAIR OF FOOLS.

Probably no two ministers in the
country are better known than Bishop
J. II. Vincent, of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church, and Rev. DR.. P. S. Hen
son, for many years pastor of the lead
ing Baptist church of Chicago.
Bishop Vincent was the leading
spirit in the Chautauqua Assemblies
and always on the lookout for attrac-
tive speakers. DR.. Henson had pie
pared a lecture entitled "Fools," and
he was eagerly engaged to deliver it at
ChautaUqua.
There was an immense audience and
DR.. Vincent introduced him, saying
Ladies and Gentlemen: We are
to have a great treat this evening, in
the shape of a lecture on Fools by
one"
Here there was a look of consterna-
ton in the faces on the platform and
a ripple of laughter through the au-
dience. Pausing until this subsidized,
the speaker continued
"Of the brightest men in the coun-
try"
This witty surprise caused tumul-
tuous merriment, which did not sub
side for a moment after DR.. Henson
came forward. There was a CLEAN in
his eye, and everybody was curious to
hear how he would treat this unique
introduction. He began:
Ladies and Gentlemen: I am not
half as big a fool as DR.. Vincent
Here the laughter broke forth again
with redoubled vigor. Pausing, in his
turn, until it had quieted down, he
continued
would have you believe"
The lecturer made a graceful bow
to his introducer, and the roar thai
greeted this ready sally was such that
it vas some time before he could be.
