Ramaao KILLED Making psaee.

Columbia, July IA homicide was
committed near Clinton, Laurens county,
Thursday morning which startled Upper
Carolina. Matte Simpson is q pretty
girl, 10 years old, living with her father,
Thomas Simpson. Across the roadway
lived John G. Wham and his wife. Yes
terday a note purporting to be from Miss
Coleman, sister-in-law of Wham, asking
Miss Simpson to pay her visit, as she
was alone, was handed the girl. Mrs.
Simpson first read the note and became
suspicious. She went with her daughter
to Wham's house and found the man
there alone. Wham said he found the
not after his sister left and sent it over.
The Simpsons were not satisfied and
the girls father called at Wham's house.
who admitted that the note was designed
for an improper purpose and that Miss
Simpson has voluntarily met him four
times within year. The girls father
demanded fight to the death, but
Wham would not meet him.
Mrs. Wham last night went to see q
friend, L. w. Ramage, to get him to act
as peace-maker. In the meantime
Wham's house was surrounded by men
all night, who would have lynched him if
no had attempted to leave. This morn
ing ats O'Clock Ramage and Reid Blakely,
friend, drove to Wham's house. Wham
greeted them pleasantly.
"John," said Ramage, "this is a bad
affair you are in"
"Yes," replied Wham, "and am will
ing to mako any Acknowledgements that
are proper"
Ramage suggested that they all go to
Simpsons, but Wham said he must wait
till his preacher came. They started into
Wham's house, when Blakely suggested
that Nham disarm. He ran into his
house, ordered Blakely out of the yard,
and while Ramage was talking to Mrs.
Wham, shot him dead.
Then the wife did some acting.
Standing on her piazza, she warned all
not to approach the house, ,as Wham would
commit more murder. The friends of
the dead man feared to go near the body
for nearly three hours. Even after the
sheriff came Mrs. Wham warned him
away. All this time the murderer was
fleeing for safety, the house being empty
when searched.
Wham ran out just after the shooting
without being observed. Bloodhounds
were sent from Columbia and put on the
track, but failed. Armed mon from all
over the county are in pursuit Wham
bought the Simpson homestead several
years ago. He and the man he killed
are well known over that section. They
have large and influential connections.
About midnight Friday night Wham
came to town and surrendered to Sheriff
Duckett. His friends say that he did not
flee from justice, but to escape trouble
with the friends of the dead man.

Longed to Wed Her Brother.

Cincinnati, July 11.--Heartbroken be-
cause she could not marry her brother,
Miss Henrietta Distler, aged Is years,
committed suicide by taking poison last
Wednesday. The girl and brother
George, aged 20 years, came to this
country when they were infants. They
lost their parents and were cared for in
the children's home in this CITY. Sub
sequently the girl was adopted by
Herman Niederhelm and the boy by an
other family. They never knew of their
relationship until year ago and after it
was discovered an intense affection
sprang up between the two. The two
young people continued to see each other
until two weeks ago, when tho young
man discontinued his visits. Distler met
her this afternoon and told her that
while he would regard her as a sister he
could not marry hor. She then returned
to her home and took paris green and
died several hours later She left a
pitiful farewell letter In which she
declared her love fox her brother and
requested him not TO marry for two
years after her death.

West Point, Ca, July 1.-THE streets
of West Point presented busy scene
such as is commonly seen here in October
and November when Messrs. John
Wright and William Crawford, both
large and we'll to-do farmers of Harris
county, drove into town last Thursday
morning followed by seven teams pulling
twenty-nine bales of cotton. There were
plenty OF buyers on hand and after o
short while the entire lot, weighing over
$1,000 pounds, was sold to Robert G.
Freeman, representing the Lanett cotton
mills, at the fancy price of 12a cents
per pound, with all storage and drayage
charges paid, making their load net
them over $4,000. These two gentlemen
still own forty bales of cotton, which
they have stored at their home, holding
it for still larger price than the one
they got to day.

Sour Lake, Texas, July 11.-Informa-

brakeman of the Southern Pacific, Bud
Thompson, had been shot and fatally
wounded by a negro at Nome junction.
Notices were ut once posted in twenty
five or thirty conspicuous places about
town, warning all negroes to leave before
night. Many negroes hastily left the
city. Over fifty left for Houston and
Beaumont. The exodus continues and
many more are walking out of town to-
night. The situation is grave and may

COAL PRODUCTION.
English Writer Compares His Coun-
try with Ours and Finds Amer
Tea Has the Advantage.

Already, writes Rt- Hon. Leonard
Courtney, p. c., in Gunton's Maya
zine. we have lost the superiority
which has given us our position II
we compare the figures OF the produc-
ton OF coal in the United Kingdom
and in the United States we find that
the quantity turned out across the At
lantic has crept up to and passed by
the quantity produced here.
What is more, the average price at
the pit mouth In the United States has
fallen below the average price here.
Still more. the excitement of business
during the last two or three years
told upon the price of coal with us
at home more than 1t told upon the
price OF coal in the United States.
Whence II may be inferred that the
marginal cost OF production has not
only fallen below the marginal cost
here, but that the reserves Of extensi-
BILE production in the United States
show greater elasticity than our re-
serves.

stored and kept successfully
for Long Time.

Sweet potatoes can be stored and
kept perfectly IL certain rules are very
carefully observed. First, they must
be dug when the soil is as dry as pos
sible; next they must be very carefully
handled all the time. and third, they
must be very carefully stored. No cut
or bruised potatoes should ever be
stored. They should not be thrown
Into heaps when they are dug, but left
to lie along the rows and dry in the
sunshine. They should not be thrown
Into wagon body, but packed care
fully into baskets or boxes IL they
are to be stored for market, a special
iy prepared house is necessary. A
width of is feet is best with a length
according to the needed capacity. The
walls should be doubled and well
packed with sawdust. The house
should have a ceiling, a loft and a
span roof and the loft should be
packed with straw. Above the roof
there should be a protected ventilator
which can be opened or closed There
should be passage through the CEN
ter, with Slated shelves arranged on
both sides. A good heating appara-
tus must be provided. In the south
three or four oil stoves will do for
this; but in the north the best ar
rangement is good brick furnace at
the end with large sheetiron fiue
passing overhead through the house.
After the potatoes are stored, the tenn
perature should be raised to about 80
degrees for several days, till the po-
tatoes are through heating and have
dried of. After that the temperature
should be kept not lower than 40 de-
grees nor higher than so degrees. The
ventilator should he opened whenever
st rises above this point-Prairie
