Bennettsville S. G.. October 27.-rhis
morning. about ! o'clock Henry Patrick
a North Carolinian who has resided in
this county for several years and mar
ried in this town, shot ana instantly kill
ed his wife at their home at the Ben
nettsville factory They had two small
children.
Patrick returned early in the night from
the whisky distillery on the North Caro-
lima line under the influence of liquor.
Besides the sunshot wound there ars six
cuts ON the throat made by a knife.
Powder burns were on the flesh near the
wound. The woman was sitting on the
bed when shot, after which her husband
carried her into an adjoining room, where
he left her on her face on the floor in
pool Of blood. The coroners court rem
dered the following verdict
THAT Mary Ellen Patrick came to her
death by a guushot wound in the hands
OF her husband, Henry Patrick"
Facts developed III the Investigation
that would suggest Jealousy as the mo-
tive. Patrick is now in jail and says the
shooting was accidental ami that he did
not do the cutting.

HEART TO HEART TALK.

Perhaps He took my steps away
Because He saw they went astray.
Perhaps He thought it best that l
Leave all my steps. that by and by,
After many years of discipline,
I might 'sit down and learn Of Him"
Perhaps He thought to give me time
To choose His steps instead Of mine;
To learn what e'er my lot may he,
His steps alone can make me free
To look away toward heaven for li2ht,
To walk by faith and not by sight.
The above verses were written by one
who was suddenly stricken down in the
midst or health, and could never walk
again. How many pathetic letters come
to us from stricken ones. shut ms"
whose steps have been taken away.
Many are sitting patiently learning Of
Him. Others fret and repine and ask
why they should be SO afflicted. To
them I commend the above verses. Read
them, dear afflicted ones, and try and
Look away toward heaven for light,
To walk by faith and not by sight"
The secret of spiritual power is in be-
ing alone with God"
Did you ever watch the first steps of
A little child? You recall how tmidy
they are put forth and how 1t reaches out
the grasp the hand Of its guide Soon
the little steps grow more confident, yet
1T still needs help; but day by day the
steps grow firmer and more confident
and wander away from its guide and
helper 0ftimes as the years go on these
steps go astray and the guide is forgot
tan.
So it is with the Christian who does not
walk by faith. A young convert feels
as the little child. q constant need of
hand TO grasp. There is no self-rehance
"a simple confidence In the leader; but
alas. the time often comes when they
choose to go alone and they see not The
outstretehed hand more than willing TO
lead them. Then they go astray and
the time has come when the Father in
love takes their sleeps away" that they
may "sit down and learn Of HIM" oh,
how carefully we should watch our steps
and the prayer of every heart should be:
Savior lead me, lest 7 stray,
Gently down the stream Of time.
Lead me. Savior all the way"

morning trials of horses receiving pre-
paration for the opening of the spring
racing season at Montgomery park, but
two of the most prominent American
and Tennessee Derby candidates broke
from control of their grooms and COW
cred long distance routes that are not
calculated to add to their chances.
S. G. Hildreth's Witful, winner of the
Crescent City Derby, was taken on the
track for a short route, but before she
had fairly warmed up she conquered
the boy in the saddle, and before she
was taken in control she negotiated a
two mile course and was on her way to
the third mile when collared. The in
cident, in local trainers opinion, will
initiate greatly against her chances for
the Montgomery handicap, for which
Hildreth has just backed her to win
several thousands of dollars.
Claude, the California Derby winner,
broke from control of his groom after
being led on the track and jumped the
middle fence and several jumps in the
steeplechase course. He was caught
and afterwards sent on a mile journey,
which he did nicely.

be elected judge of the new Thirty-sev-
enth judicial district, composed of Allen

the Allen county primaries against Capt

the outcome Of the special election,
which will be held on May 5.
There is,some question as to the legal
ity Of the special election. The consti-
tuition provides that the governor shall
fill judicial vacancies by appointments.

trict provides for the election of a judge
by special election. In order to make 1t
sure Governor Bailey viii probably go

CARROLL IS CONFIDENT.
Thinks He VIII Get Jefries-Corbet
Firht.

Chicago, March 25.-Paddy Carroll is
still confident that the managers of
James J. Jeffries and James J. COrbett
will accept his $4,000 purse offer for
thirty-round or finish fight between the
two big fellows.
Carroll says he is backed by several
moneyed men and that the fight can be
pulled off without interference by the
authorities, as the proposed battle
ground is claimed by three govern
ments and yet owned by none. The
local fight promoter intimates that the
battle ground would be near Havana,
which is about forty-six hours from
Chicago. Carroll says he will go to
New York some time this week and de-
post $4,000 with Al Smith as an evil
dence of good faith, and if the two
fighters accept the offer. then the $780,
900 purse will be posted at once, to-
gether with $4,000 from each fighter to
insure the match.
1t is also claimed by Carroll that he
is authorized to offer purse for a
match between Fitzsimmons and Phil
adelphia Jack 0 'Brien, to be fought the
night before the big fight. Altogether,
CAROLS proposition is a gigantic
scheme to promote a big carnival such
as Dan Stuart gave at Carson City.
