Cheese Making at the Fair
Mr.. Watson Will Have Plant in
Operation Next Week.

A fow weeks ago Mr.. e. j.
Watson took up with the manu-
facturers in Chicago the matter of
securing all of the machinery
necessary to fu'ly equip a cheese
factory for operation at the State
Fair in the State exhibit. "l
have been advised today by the
Creamery Package Manufacturing
company of Chicago that CONS.
piete cheese making equipment
has been shipped to this depart
ment and should be here in few
days" said Mr.. Watson yester>
day. "This machinery will be
installed at the State far next
week and will be operated by Mr..
Voigt. the northwestern man who
has been so successful IN the estab-
lishment of cheese factories in the
State.
''ln connection with the opera
ton of the cheese factory at the
fair the Union Creamery company
will have an exhibit of the cheese
made with the same machinery at
It's plant and Mr.. Voigt will be on
hand to furnish all interested
with full information as to the
manufacture of cheese in South
Carolina. The factory at the fair
will consume SO gallons of milk
per day and hope that those eX-
hibltors Mt the fair who bring
mich COWS will furnish the factory
with milk, taking in exchange
therefor their portion of the man
ufactured cheese.
81 would thank all tho eXhib>
itors who are willing to do this
to advise me in advance Of the
iair so that we may know who to
call upon at the grounds for the
fresh milk. | feel that the exhib-
itors could do nothing better to
advance the profitable industry
that this department has been try
ing to introduce into the State. =

Rival Found to Niagara.
Worlds Greatest Waterfall Dis.
covered in South America.

St. Louis, Oct. Is. "A greater
cataract than either the Niaga1 a
or Zambesi falls have been dis
covered in South America. Hor-
acio Anasagastl, Commissioners of
Mines from the Republic of Ar
gentina to the Worlds Fair, fully
confirms the statement that the
Iguazu is the greatest waterfall in
the world. He says:
81 have recently been in a 30
sitlon to corroborate with my own
eyes the marvellous character of
the falls of Iguazu. The Iguazu
falls are in the Iguazu river, the
boundary between Brazil and Ar
gentlna. The falls are 60 feet
higher that the Niagara, nearly
three times greater in width and
it's volume of water is 60 per cent
Flarger. The Iguazu river is
twice as big as the Niagara river
and hurries to the sea with IN
credible swiftness and tumbliDg
%, 100000 cubic feet of water
per minute over a precipice 21O
feet bigh. The falls are 1923
feet wide, 210 feet high.

Davis Club, the Wholesale Wine
and Liquor Trade Parker and
Davis Club.
In addition to these Parker and
Davis clubs are now in process of
formation IN the stock exchange,
metals exchange and in several
other downtown exchanges and
trades. Ali these clubs are af
tiliated with the Business Men,
Parker and Davis Association.
One of the big surprises of this
campaign was tho formation of
the jewelers. Club. The jewelers.
had not been represented by Il
Democratic club since 1892, but
they now have club of great size
and have three Parker banners
stretched across Maiden Lane.
1t is said that fear of stThe
Watch Combination" prevents
many jewelers., who will support
Parker from declaring their senti
ments now. jewelers. say that
watches manufactured by the COM
binaiton are sold to foreign retail
ers at a much cheaper price than
they can be bought at home.

Lynchers Now
Under Arrest.
Six Taken to Columbia for Safe
Keeping. -Pinkerton Men Have
Been at Work on ,the Case
for Months.

OA<N w ehsS AASo uSlSStoNs va SeN
ing caused the death of Keitt'
Bookard at Eutawville on the
night of July 18th were arrested
yesterday, and are now 10 the
State penitentiary awaiting trial.
Among the suspects arrested are
j. ii. Palmer, who WAS marshal
of the town Of Eutaw lille, and S.
A. Eadon, constable to Magistrate
Wiggins. The others are Piney
Martin, Benny Martin and their
brother-in-law, Adger Butler, and
I'll. G.. Edwards. The latter was
arrested Sunday, but no mention
of the fact was nade for fear that
the Others named might become
frightened. Another of the Mar.
tin brothers will be arrested today.
He has moved to another part of
tho State.
The formal arrest was made
by Sheriff j. B. Morrison of
Berkley county, the officers who
worked up the evidence being un-
able to get constables to serve the
warrants. Gov. Hayward was
asked to send officers from Colum-
bia, but they could not get there
in time, and Sheriff j.. Gilmore
Martin of Charleston dispatched
four deputies to Eutawviile TO as
sist Sheriff Morrison, but the lat
ter had made the arrests when the
deputies arrived. No trouble was
encountered, the men at first TAX
ing the affair lightly, but when
they heard that Edwards had been
arrested they did not show so
much pleasure. Edwards is a
very material witness and seems
to have left the neighborhood
rather suddenly on tho night of
the murder.
The crime for which these men
were arrested as suspectsls one of
the most revolving in the history
of the State. The only alleged
reason was that Edwards had
quarreled with the negro and the
latter had cursed Edwards. But
there was, perhaps, deeper mo-
tive which nay be made apparent
IN time. 1t seems that the diff
ference with Edwards was made
an excuse for the negro to be ara
rested.
STORY OF THE CRIME.
A little more detailed statement,
as taken from the report at the
time, is as follows: On Thursday
July 7th, Piney Martin, Gilmore
Martin, Adger Butler and Ii c..
Edwards, white men, and Kit
Bookard and Eugene Washington,
colored, went to lake near
Eutawville to spend some time
fishing. There was some horse
play in the wagon and Andrew
Martin threw Edwards out. The
latter, thinking that it was the
negro, cursed Kit Bookard and
the ngro returned the epithets and
threatened to spank Edwards.
After the return from the fish :.
ing trip the Martins began to urge
Edwards to have tie negro pros
ecuted. The negro was arrested
on July 18th and was taken
before Magistrate Virgins who
sned the negro IS with an option
al sentence of serving Is days on
the chaingaug. The prisoner was
unable to pay the fine and was
kept In the guardhouse at Eutaw-
vile that night to be taken to the
county Jail the day following.

HORRIBLY MUTILATED,

Keitt Bookard never reeched
the county Jail. Some time dur
ing the night he was taken n from
the guard house, his body was
mutilated in u most horrible man
ner, his ears being cut off and
there being score of knife stnbs
In the body. Agreat bar weighing
5O pounds was tied to the corpse
which was thrown into to the river
Search was made, and it was not
until Friday of the same week
that the body was found floating
against the boom in the Santee
river at Ferguson. 1t seemed
that the hand of Providence had
dragged the body with the so
pounds weight to the surface of
the water in order thata humane
people might learn how horryfy-
lpgwas the treatment the negro by
his murderers. His hands we're
tied together with IL new cotton
rope
AT the inquest it was brought
out thatEdwards had gone, that be
was wandering sort of fellow
and that he had been at work
on the farm ofLewIs Martin. Keit
Bookard also worked on the same
place. There was testimony
which looked dark for certain
individuals, and it seemed that
the terrible crime was committed
while the men were crazed with
liquor. Peter Bookard, brother of
the deceased, testified at the in
quest that be had heard Edward,
say that he had been forced by
Piney and Benny Martin to do
whatever he had done il the kill
ing of Bookard. Edwards wa,
not heard of after the day of the
day of the killing until he was
brought to Columbia ulder arrest
Sunday night by Solicitor Hilder-
brand and a Pinkerton detective.
Gov. ';~yward, the agent OF
tho ri; kertnns and others inter.
ested in running the crime to erth
seemed to be very much gratifed
over the outcome, and the prison
ers were brought here on order oi
the governor for safe keeping in
the penltentiary, as the Jail at
Monck's Corner is unsafe and il
said TO be- unfit for the detention
of prisoners. The Pinkerton
agent who worked up the case
had difficult work, very effort
being made to thwart them. Inof
fenslve travelling statesmen were OF
dered out of town and every 9th
er stranger was under surveillanc,
and probably was in danger.
