Considering the deep interest in the
elections, the city was very quiet

ties from early morning until the close
of the polls. As usual, the result con-
tanned a number of surprises, the unex.
pected happening with several candi-
dates.
Lindstrom's victory, even with his
small majority, is tribute to his own
personality, and the rustling abilities of
the push that stood behind him. The
defeat of Townsend was not unexpected,
even by many of his supporters, who
realized his slight acquaintance in the
city as a serious handicap. Nothwith.

Aberdeen, Mr.. Townsend's acquaintance
is not large. He is very busy business
man, whose entire time since he has
lived here has been occupied with his
personal affairs, go that his views upon
the many complex questions arising in
municipal affairs were comparatively
unknown.
The election OF Taggart was one of the
surprises, even to himself and friends,
and "Bob" will be compelled to hustle
to maintain the legal reputation attrib-
utcd to him Tuesday by his enthusiastic
friends. The large majority of Roy G.

close contest.
Owing to the narrow majorities of
some candidates., -one or more contests
are probable. In this connection, the
vote of the fourth ward appears to be the
bone of contention, several irregularities
being alleged in counting the vote.
But one ward councilman on the Citi-
zens ticket was elected, w. w. Hart,
from the third ward, the Independent
Citizens candidates being successful in
the fourth, fifth and sixth wards. For

AN INSANE SOLDIER
Visits the War Department and
Shoots Down Two Soldiers.


At Washington armed with a 3S-
calibre revolver, VIM. J. O'Brien,
alias VIM. Duffy, an insane discharged
soldier Thursday entered the war de-
partment and going to room 227 in
the mail and record division, shot
Robert J. Manning, a messenger, and
Arthur Wicker, a clerk. Miss Emma
Saxton, another clerk, barely missed
being shot through the head. The
injury to Manning is on the right side
Just above the kidneys and is regarded
as dangerous. Wicker was shot In
the left arm above the elbow. Before
the maniac could fire third time he
was overpowered by JamesJ. Dawson,
a messenger. 1t required the COM
bined strength of half dozen men to
finally subdue the man. Prominent
among them was Lieut.. Gen. Adna Il.
Chaffee, 'chief-of-statf. The lunatic
still held the smoking weapon in his
hand when Gen. Chaffee' noticed it
and with his left hand took the wea-
pom from him and also the papers in
his pocket. Majs. Kean and Ireland,
of the surgeon generals staff, were
hastily sent for and gave first aid to
the injured men before they were
taken to the Emergency hospital.
OBrien or Duffy in talking to
Charles Brandt, the chief Of the divi.
sion, expressed dissatisfaction with
his discharge papers. Then without
a word Of warning he drew the pistol
from his pocket and aimed it directly
at Brandt's head. Brandt ducked and
the bullet entered the arm OF Wicker.
He then turned the weapon on Miss
Saxton and fired. She, too, lodged
and the bullet struck Manning.
O'Brien was taken to the police
station, it requiring four men to get
him out OF the building. O'Brien
was admitted TO ST. Elizabeth's asy-
lum in 1893. He later was paroled
but returned in 1897. He served in
the Sixth cavalry ana Third artillery.

A oUEER STORY.
Diving Man Said TO Have Confessed
to Murder Of His Wife.


The Charleston Post says story is
being told in Colleton county that
Section Foreman Jones Of the Allan
tic Coast Line, while on bis deathbed
a few weeks ago, confessed to the
murder of his wife, who was killed at
Ravenel in May, 1902, and that
the three negroes, Jim Black, James
Ford and Thomas Pryor, who were
lynched for the crime, were entirely
innocent Of it.
The murder of Mrs. Jones was one
of the most shocking ever committed
in the State. Her dead body was
found one morning during the latter
part of May in the dog house IN the
rear Of the yard with her throat cut
and her head crushed in from terrific
blows delivered with some heavy In
strument. The body of the murdered
woman was discovered by her little
daughter, who reported to her father,
who was at work down the railroad
track, that her mother had been
killed. Hurrying home Jones found
the body in the dog house and he'
seemed completely overcome with
grief.
1t was believed that the crime was
committed by the negroes for the pur-
pose of robbery. The theorv US that
the negroes went to Jones residence
that morning after he had gone OF to
work, killed Mrs. Jones and dragged
her body into the yard and threw 1t
into the dog house and became fright
ened and ran away before lootlng the
house.
The news of the killing spread over
Colleton county and armed men start
ed in pursuit Of Black, Pryor and
Ford, who, it is said. had been seen
near the Jones cottage on the morn
ing of the tragedy. About three
weeks after the commission OF the
crime Black was captured in Georgia
and he was brought to RaVenel and
taken before Magistrate Behllng, VINO
committed him to Jail. While tne
constable was en- route to WATERFORD
with Black be was met by a mob or
white citizens and the prisoner taken
TO the scene Of the crime and strung
to telegraph pole and his body rid
died with bullets. 1t was said that
before being lynched Black confessed
the crime, duplicating Ford and
Pryor. Ford is said to have watched
the house while Black auu Pryor coln-
mitted the murder. Both Ford and
Pryor suffered the same fate as Black,
though at different times.
A short while ago Section Master
Jones was taken i'll in Colleton coun-
ty and after few weeks he dled.
Before death, however, it is said, ac-
cording to the story IN ColleUon, that
he told his physician that he had
killed his wife. He said that he knew
he was going to die, but be could not
die until he had told all about the
crime. He then recited the details
OF the killing, saying that he killed
bis wife while in passion. lmmedl-
ately after making the confession ne
Is said to have turned over on bis side
and breaGhed his last.

confession Of Jones, declaring that 1t
was only the rawlings Of dying man
