Aftermath Of the Season Gathered In.
All sorts and conditions Of weather,
cold and warm, rainy and pleasant,
We're served up tthe menu for the
last week OF old Savin Rocks season
of 1904. The closing days, however,
were almost idyllic in their Indian
summer like splendor and throng Of
humanity seized the opportunity of
bidding the favorite resort a long fare
well. About 500 persons enIivened the
grove and park on Saturday and Sum
day also yielded up its quota. Although
the White City shut up shop a week
ago the Old Mill and the grove at
fractions remained in operation for
what is known as the harvest week.
Saturday and Sunday the orchestra
rendered Sousa concerts for the edifi-
cation of the March Kings" multitude
of admirers. Last night, however, the
last word was written and the books
of the record Of 1904 was closed and
filed away. And the greatest season at
Savin Rock has gone down into his
tory. /

THE LYNcHING HABIT.

The Newberry Herald and News,
commenting upon the fact noted by the
News and Courier that the recent terri
bic lynehing at Statesboro, Georgia, oc-
Cured in Bulloch county. which was
named probably in honor of some dis
.tant relative of President Roosevelt,
says:
ut appears to us in this section of
the country that the name of the coun-
ty hasn't very much to do with the
matter. The mob ought to be punished,
and this punishment ought to be meted
out just as soon as possible"
We agree most heartily with that
view Of the matter, and we are partic-
ularly Impressed with the following
statement of our Newberry contempo-
rary;
There is no question in the minds Of
the right thinging people of the south
that President Roosevelt's social equal
ity doctrine never has had much to do
with recent lynchings in the south, but
even that has nothing to do with the
matter SO far as the white people Of the
south are concerned.
The Iynching habit prevailed in Geor-
gia, as well as in all the other southern
states, long before the president invited
Booker Washington to take luncheon
with him at the White House, and the
fact is that no lynching that has ever
occurred in the south has been pun
lished. we cannot excuse our own bar
barity by advertising the Shortcomings
of other people in other states

At both cemeteries a large crowd was
refused admittance although all those
who were in the cemeteries before the
ARRIVAL of the troops were allowed to
remain. A number also wer eallowed
to pass through the gates BY request.

bouquets wer eplaced upon about two
hundred graves. @
The company was 1ividedsif details
for this work, As the different squads
were placing flowers on the graves the
band played softly old soldier hymns.
Colonel Lowe, William Everett and

 AT CENTREVILLE
ROBBERS LOOT PosTofr.oE AND GET AWAY WITH $6oJ IN MONEY AND $500 IN sTAMPs-WoRK OF PROFESSIONALS.

Centreville, February 19.-(special.)-- The postoffice at this place was robbed Hast night and about $500 in money and $500 in stamps stolen. The safe in the loffice was blown to pieces and the office wrecked. Entrance was gained by break ling the front door.
 The robbery evidently occurred about 2:3O o'clock this morning, as the explosion which wrecked the safe in which tke imoney was kept. stopped the affjec .aek.
 The robbery was clearly made by ex perts. Several mail pouches in the office were cut and the contents taken. The rob bers broke into the blacksmith shop of R r. Oglesby and got some tools and 1t Is supposed they went back to the shop after the robbery and left some of the papers which were taken from the post office
 The night was an ideal one for such deed as 1t was dark and raining The robbers did not attempt to disturb any other safe or building In the town. The work was done by some one who is fa- miliar with the situation of the office. The robbery was not discovered until Postmaster Fuller came to the office this morning. Several people in the town heard the explosion, but paid no attention to 1t as they thought 1t was gun
 There Is not the slightest clue as to the identitytof the burglars.

JURY RETURNS A
 VERDICT OF GUILTY
PENALTY OF DEATH FIXED IN TRIAL OF HENRY WALKER. THE ALLEGED SLAYER OF MRS. DICKINSON OF coRDovA.

Jasper. February 9-(Special.)-Thc jury in the case of Henry Walker, the negro charged with the murder of Mrs J. c. Dickinson at Cordova on the night Of March 4. 1903, returned a vedict of guilty, fixing the penalty at death. mo- ton was immediately made by the de- 1ense Tor an arrest of judgment on the ground that one of the jurors left the box and went into an adjoining room dur ing the progress of the trial The motion will be argued probably tomorrow or Monday, at which time the date of exe- cution will be fixed, if the motion should be overruled.
 The crime was one of the most shock ing that ever occurred in Alabama.
 All clews pointed to Henry Walker as the guilty party. He was arrested. tried and convicted and sentenced to be hang ed, but the case was appealed to the supreme court and the judgment reversed on technical grounds. The principal tes- timony of the state was that of Sheriff J. s. Moore, J. R. Davidson and ]. B. Ellis who gave evidence as to the state ments made by Mrs. Dickinson concern ing the Identity of her assailant the find- ing of the bloody clothing and pistol in the house where Walker staid, the cloth ing being proven to be that worn by Wal ker on the day previous to the tragedy, and the evidence of little George Dicxin- son. years old, who positively identified the negro as the assailant of his parents.
 There were some good points in the negro's favor, and two witnesses were introduced who testified that Mrs. Dick inson made different statements than made to Sheriff Moore, MT. Davidson and Ellis but the jury evidently gave the eyi- dence of the state greater weight

SELMA MAN INVENTS
 NEW COTTON PICKER
BELIEVED THAT THE coNTRiV- ANCE WILL REVOLUTIONlZE
 COTTON PICKING IN THE SOUTH. A PATENT HAS BEEN GRANTED.

Selma February 19.--(Special.) IA Selma man, MT. E. Bracey Vaughan, has been granted a patent by the United States patent office For a cotton picker that gives promise of revolutonizing the gath ering of the heecy staple The picker is a hand worked machine that Is strapped about the shoulders of the manipulator, a bag being carried into the which the cotton falls. The manipulator stands in an erect position while working the ma chine, thus doing away with the back breaking stoop that is necessary now in gathering cotton by hand.
 If the machine can be made light enough and cheap enough, both of which it's inventor claims can be done, it will soon make the pickaninny in the cotton field but a remembrance.
 MT. Vaughan has been to New York. where working model Is In course of construction. Several who have seen the rough model that he made himself pro- nounee it unqualifiedly a success. It Is expected to pick as much cotton as three expert hands could pick.
 MT. Vaughan is son of Capt. P. T. Vaughan of this city. He farmed about two years ago and one day being short of hands went into the field to help pick cotton The work was so laborious that he cudgeled his brain for means Of Tightening the labor and the present in- vention is the result.
