THE ONLY CLUE,

IC was known Mt the time of.the
murder that the gun winch the
fishermen had ut the camp where
Shealy was k He'd had these wurds
III the breech, and this was the
only clue to the mnrder. The
gun belonged to man named Sal
ters who had loaned it to Frank
Smith, and Salters promptly gave
the information which would lead
to the mprderer's apprehen-
sion.
After finding the weapon, which
fastened suspicion ON Par-, Cons
stable Knox informed the sheriff
who sent his deputies out after
the man and also offered q reward
for his capture. After several
hours trailing Parr was arrested
by two men at the atlantic Coast
Line junction, turned over to the
officer and lodge in Jail. He
could not be seen late yesterday
evening.
Parr is given bad name by
the mill people. He is said by
them to he shiftless and averse to
work. He has lived in Charleston
Langley, berry and Aiken hav
ing married in the last named
Nal Lucas. He has been in Colum
bia four or five years. The officers
are confident they have the right
man, as IN addition to the evi-
dence of the gun Parr was seen
going in the direction of Smith 8
camp on the morning of the mur
der at an early hour.

Another Big Sale OF Fine
Farm Land.
Twenty Five Thousand Acres in
Aiken County. For Scan~
dinavian Settlers.
The State, 1st inst.

The State, 1st inst.
Through the office of the com,
missioner of commerce and immi>
grafton another large body Of
land has been secuted for the pur-
pose of bringing colonls's to South
Carolina to build up farming
lands which aie lying idle.
Yesterday signatures were fixed
to the agreement between parties
at interest, and thus was closed
the transaction for the estab
lIshment in Aiken county
of a colony Of 500 families of
Scandinavian people. This Colo
ny will be more than twice as bic
the one to be settled on the tract
OFT 10, 600 acres IN Lexington con
tracted for this week. The AIKEN
tract ultimately will embrace 25. -
600 acres.
AS is the case with the transac-
tion in Lexington county, the
company merely acquires the pros
pertY until it can be sold to the
immigrants Inrdivisions of4O acres
settlers, and the company's policy
Will not be to rent lands. The
OBJECT is to bring to the State peo
pie who are able to purchase little
and to take hold Of the work homes
of building up the property.
On Mr.. Givens model farm adj
joining this tract the grapes and
figs are ripe in profusion and the
place is rich with growing gar
den products while this great
tract of approximately %.
acres is not under cultivation at
ali. That is the object Of the
immigration bureau, MIR. Watson
saYs-to sell untennnted lands to
people who will make homes rath-
er to buy homes from people who
will merely move TO town after
selling their farms. 1t is to build
up the farming industry rather
than tn encourage people, now en-
gagged in that honorable work, to
to move to the towns.
Part of this $4,000 acre tract
was under cultivation before the
war and therefore can he put into
proper condition in very short
time. The only persons living
thereon are negro croppers, and
this change will put the lands into
hands of people who will bring
out the best that is in the soil.
The deal yesterday represents
over 100000 while that of Mon
day called for an exchange of Sl2O
600. Commissioner w ats r
States that before the week is out
he will close contracts for other
tracts.

Clad in a flowing peignoir of faintest
violet cashmere, her luxurious golden
bronze hair looped at the back of her
charming head with a silver pin, Claire
reclined in deep Chinese chair, an open
book upon he- lap. With both his chubby
hands spread upon the page, stood little
Leon, attired in rollicking sailors suit

upon his foster-mothers face with SOL
