AN OUTRAGEOUS CRIME.
Robert Bradford, a Negro, tries to Break
Into A House Occupied by Unprctect-
ed Ladies...Captured and Commit
ted to Jail.

Robert Bradford, colored, was ar
rested at an early hour Monday morn
ing and committed to Jail under a war
rant charging him with an attempt
to break and enter dwelling house,
with intent 20 commit a burglary
and larceny. :,
The unsuccessful attempt to commit
the crime was made Sunday night
at the home of Mrs. John Jennings,
about four miles from this city. Brad
ford attempted to enter the house
through a window, but the noise he
made aroused the inmates and when
they raised an out cry be fed. When
discovered he had raised the sash
and was in the act = of climbing
through the window into the room.
Mrs. Jennings and daughters were
alone in the house and they were en-
tirely without male protectors on the
premises. As soon as possible they
notified their neighbors and Mr.. W.
S. Burkett and others instituted 2
search for the criminal. His pursuit
was rendered easy by the fact that he
was peculiarly shod, wearing one
mans shoe and one woman's shoe,
and the tracks that he left were lden-
titled and followed with ease. His
trail was followed across the fields tc
the road, thence to his house and
then to Mr.. ". B. Boyle's field where
he was at work. The capture was made
without difficulty, Bradford making
no resistance nor attempt to escape
by running, which he evidently re-
allied would be useless as his pursuers
were mounted aDd prepared to capture
him at all hazards. He was brought
to this city and committed to jail, or
warrant obtained from Magistrate
Wells, to await trial at the next tern
of court.

RAILROAD RUR0RS.
Reqorted That The Atlantic Cost Line is
Negotiating For Large Property.

For several days there has been a
rumor to the effect that tie Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad Co. has been ne
gotiating for the purchase of the Sum-
ter Cotton Mill property, and the
land adjoining the cotton mill. NO
definite information can be secured,
but it is very evident that deal has
been on, as :several of the officials
have been in the ciy. But whether
the deal has been made has not been
verified. 1t is aRthoritatively stated
that very substantial ofer-at the
rate of one thousand dollars per acre
has been made by the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad Co. for certain lot
adjoining the cotton mill property
and in between that property and the
railroad property. It has been hoped
for some time that the Atlantic Coast
Line Go. would build round house and
repair shops at Sumter, as Sumter is
perhaps the most important cente rof
the railroad property in this section
of the south, there being seven
Atlantic Coast Line railroads run
ming through here, and this being
the terminal of several of their lines.
The Atlantic Coast Line has purchas-
ed quite large tract of land adjoin-
ing their old G. S. and n property
in the past few days. there is some
thing up. Watch Sumter. This is a
Coast Line town, and the round
house and the shops will soon be here,
unless ell signs fail.

KNIGHTS DEFEATED.
The College Boys Wipe up the Ground
With Pythian Bali Players.

The X. of F., ball team the hither.
to inyincible champions of the local
field, were given a sound drubbing
Monday afternoon of II to 5 by q
team made up of college boys and
local players.
Tarrar, pitcher, and Whitley, catch
er, were the battery for the city team
and Cuttino and Durant, pitchers and
Mullcy, catcher, did the Work fol
the Knights
The game was too one-sided to be
exciting, but it was, nevertheless
quite interesting and the crowd seem
ed to find it enjoyable. There were
number of pretty plays and with lit,
tie more practice both teams could
play much better ball. 1t is but fail
to say, however, that the Knights
team was crippled by the absence Of
several OF the best men and the sub
stitutes did not do as we'll as the reg
ular men have done in previous games.
The Knights expect to have another
game this week-with Dalzell perhaps:
Interest in base ball is growing ano
more and better games are on the pro.
gramme between this time and the
opening Of the fall season.

Three shots were fired. one of which
