The city authorities have, for wet
past, been writing the mines relative to

that shipments will arrive here in time

The city buys it's coal at the mines at
80 cents per ton which, with freight
added, makes the cost, laid down here,
about $3.50 per ton. An effort has
been made here to borrow a carload for

but 1t appears that no one has any
steam coal to lend.
The bins at the water station are very
nearly empty, though it Is still hoped
that coal will arrive ere the supply is

lee KELLY IS SHOT
IN HEAD BY NEGRO,
Shotgun Affair is Wellnigh
Fatal.
THE SHOOTING is UNPRovokE1
Bad Negro With a Gun Almost Causes
the Death of Two Men-Desperado
Escapes and is Still at Large Is
Being Pursued.

Information was brought to Ameri-
Gus yesterday afternoon of desperate
shooting afffaY, out at KelIy's Mill, on
Flint river, which came very near re-
sulting in the death of Mr.. Lee Kelly,
an estimable citizen of Sumter, and
also of Mike Tigner, worthy negro,
who was with Mr.. Kelly at the time.
The details of the shooting were re-
lated by Mr.. P. l.. Holt, who came in
from Kelly's yesterday.
The imam behind the gun" IN this
instance was black desperate no
known in that part of the county,
though officers have q description of
him and are on his trail.
The Shooting affray occurred late
Sunday afternoon, and while in re-
mote section of the county it is rather
strange that nothing was heard of it
here until yesterday Both Mr.. Kelly
and the negro Tigner were badly hurt,
though it is not believed that their in
juries will result seriously.
All the Trouble, it seems, was brought
on by the "black unknown" aud had
it's origin in his having secured lot of
meal from the mill, stating tina: it was
upon Mr.. Kelly 8 order.
Mr.. Kelly reprimanded the negro for
this act, and told him that he would
have to work out the value of the meal
at the MILL
At this the negro, who was standing
in the cabin door, reached inside for
his shotgun and, leveIing it at Kelly,
pulled the trigger. Nearly the entire
charge took effect in Mr.. Kelly's face,
breast and right hand, the wounding
of this hand preventing him from de
Tending himself as he might have done
One large shot struck Mr.. Kelly in
the mouth aud came ont through his
right cheek.
As this jancture the negro Tigner at
tempted to approach the desperate foi
the purpose of conciIiating. or possibly
disarming him.
But the blood of the bad black wa:
up, and raising his gun he enptied the
remaining barrel at Tigner. The en-
tire charge took effect in the negro.
leg and he fell to the ground helpless
The desperate then jumped into 1
buggy and rode away, leaving his vic
tins lying helpless in the road.
1t is said that he has sill ce been seer
in the vicinity Of L eslie, where he ha
relatives.
The uuproYok d shooting Of yr
K lily and Tlgner caused nu.h ex3ite

and every effort is being made to catch
the desperate who committed the foul
crime.

CURES ALL KIDNEY STOMACH ~
-AkD LIVER TROUBLES.


This beautiful atmospheric phenome-
non, which takes its name from one
of the fairies of medieval legend and
is specially prevalent at the strait of
Messina, between Italy and Sicily, has
lately been critically studied by DR..
Boccara of the technical college at
Reggie. He has seen the apparitlons
under three different forms-aerial,
marine and multiple. In the first case
buildings on the italian coast were
seen projected on the Sicilan coast be-
yond. In the second case arches on a
railway above Messina were visible,
magnified and more brilliant than the
real arches, standing below the sea
line with no apparent support. In the
multiple Morgana aerial and marine
apparitions are visible simultaneously.
All these appearances are ascribed to
variations in atmospheric density pro-
ducing abnormal refraction.

THE RUSSIAN ARMY.

The Cossacks are a peculiarly promi-
nent feature in the Russian military
organization. They give their military
services for fifteen years, in return for
which they pay no taxes.
Every year nearly 100000 Russians
become liable for service, but of these
only 270,000 enter the active army, the
remainder being passed direct into the
militia for twenty-five years.
In the matter of equipment the Rus
sian army is up to date in every par
tlcular. 1t has special balloon de-
partment, cyclist corps-even dogs are
pressed into the service of the great
white czar.
The czar of Russia commands the
greatest armed force in the world. His
army consists of 1,555 battalions of in
fantry, 1858 squadrons of cavalry and
BITS cannon. Every nationality over
land from Europe to China is represent
ed in this composite army.
Each man in the cyclist corps carries
a certain amount of luggage on his BIZ
cycle, consisting of copper drinking
cup and cooking vessel, small canteen
and the same amount of ammunition
as an ordinary infantryman. The cav
airy carry leather or skin sacks, which,
inflated, serve as floats for both man
and horse when crossing rivers.

These are the days when the Subur-
banite delights in tantalizng the couped
up city man for he points out the ad
vantages of the green fields, the refresh
ing atmosphere, the fragrance OF flowers,
and the delights of outdoor life, and
compares them with the dusty, paved
streets, the absence of trees, and every
thing OF nature and what man likes best
freedom. The suburban country has
schools, fine walks, macadam roads,
water and sewer systems, and every
feature of the city but separation from
its noise and humdrum. The New
Jersey Central stands first as the commu-
ter's road, and its towns are among the
finest suburban places in the country.
