TRIUMPHs OF MODERN SURGERY

TRIUMPHS OF MODERN SURGERY.
Wonderful things are done for the
human body by surgery. Organs are taken
out and scraped and put back, or may be
removed entirely; bones are spliced; pipes
take the place of diseased sections Of
veins; antiseptic dressings are applied to
wounds, bruises, burns and like injuries
before Inflammation sets in, which causes
them to heal without maturation and in
one-lhird the time required by the old
treatment. Chamberlain's Pain Balm acts
on this same principle. 1t is an antiseptic
and when applied to such injuries, causes
them to heal quickly. 1t allays the pain
and soreness. Keep bottle of Pain Balm
in your home and it will save time and
money, not to mention the inconvenience
and suffering such injuries entail. For
sale by Bamberg Pharmacy; b. G. Rice.

SAWED IRON BAR AND LEFT JAIL.
R. A. Adams, Under Death Sentence, Effects His
Escape From Prison at WATERFORD.

WATERFORD, June 14.-Quite sensa-
sation was caused in town this morning
when it was known that R. A. Adams had
escaped from jail Adams was convicted
for the murder of Henry Jaques and was
sentenced last June to be hanged. His
sentence was stayed pending an appeal
to the supreme court, which appeal was
dismissed. Adams was to have been re-
sentenced at the next term of court, which
meets the first Monday in August.
At2 o'clock this morning when Gus
Green was carried to Jail by Policeman
Johnson, rope of blankets was discover
ed hanging from the window above the
portico on the side of the Jail.
Upon investigation it was found that
Adams and negro, Jasper Stephens, in
carcerated for larceny, had filed through
one of the iron bars and escaped.
Deputy Sheriff Henderson Immediately
started in pursuit, but so far no trace of
the escaped prisoner has been found.
Adams is about feet, 10 inches high;
weighs 145 pounds; dark skin; dark hair
and eyes; with mustache and a long sharp
face with heavy jaw and large neck; fast
talking and winks eyes rapidly while
talking; nervous and quick of movement.
Last night at hot supper and dance
given by the colored population, Gus
Green, becoming jealous of VIM. Haynes
deliberately pulled his pistol land shot him
dead.
Green was captured and lodged in jail
at 2 o'clock this morning, and this fact
enabled the officers to discover so early
that Adams and Stephens had escaped.

DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve is the best
salve in the world for sores, cuts, burns,

EHRHARDT, June 1s-Everything quiet
this week. Nothing doing, so news is
scarce.
MI. G. B. Kearse happened to apainful
and serious accident near MI. j. F. Jones's
plsce last week. His horse became fright
ened and bolted, and in trying to hold
him, one of the stirrup feathers broke and
he fell from his horse against post and
broke his leg between the knee and ankle.
Rev. 8. P. Chisolm and Mr.. Joe Beard
were near, and took Nh. Kearse in their
buggy and carried him to Dr.. Kirkland's,
where the leg was set and he was able to
be removed to his home the next day.
The doctor found only one of the bones
broken, and while painful it is not as seri-
Gus as was at first supposed.
The little child of Mr.. and Mrs. W. d.
Kinard, that was burned last week, is
doing as well as it did at first, and unless
there is speedy change little hope is en-
tertained of its recovery. The family has
our deepest sympathy in their trouble.
We were very sorry to learn of the
death of Mrs. Preston Mcmillan, of the
Colston section. She was buried near the
old Mcmillan home, where her husband
was born and raised. She leaves a devoted
husband and several children to mourn
her loss. We extend to them our sincere
and heartfelt sympathy in their severe
bereavement.
Mr.. Walter S. Eaves, brother OF Mrs.
F. E. and D. c. Copeland and Mrs. j. 4.
Carter, came very near being burned to
death at his home in Lee county last
week. He did not wake up until the
whole house was in flames, and only had
time to escape in his night clothes.
Mr.. J. W. Barnes, of Cope, was here
one day last week, horse trading with
Capt. J. NJ. Dannelly. Come again, Mr..
Barnes.
Crops are doing fine. While they are
little small, the prospect never seemed
brighter before than it does now, and II
we don't have some serious drawback
later, there will be plenty of money in the
fall.
The school closed last Thursday, after
q successful session Of nine months. Prof.
Folk has done some good work here, and
it is hoped that he will teach another
term. What We need now is school
building; the present structure is dis
grace to the town. There is plenty Of
money here, and if some of the trustees
will only agitate'the matter we feel sure
that there will be no trouble in raising
funds to build house that will meet the
requirements of the school district.
There is some talk of the railroad put
ting on Sunday train from this place to
Charleston and Savannah.
Mr.. Julius Ehrhardt is at home from
Clemson college, for the summer. julie

This time it is negro, Richard Trues-

negro. Truesdale and two relatives OF
his were returning home from Saluda,
where they had been to dispose of load
of rosin. While stopped at creek to
water their team, three white men, two
Millers and one Mccormick, passed and
cursed them, but drove on. Later on they
came upon the white men again, where
they had stopped another negro and were
cursing and abusing him, having pistols
and sticks drawn. They passed on, but
again met the white men. Here they
were attacked with sticks and pistols, and
when Richard Truesdale caught the stick
with which he was being beaten, he was
shot twice by Miller. He died a few min
utes later. The coroner's jury returned q
verdict that he was killed by unknown
parties, and another version is that Nc
Cormick fired the fatal shot. The killing
appears to have been cold-blooded
murder, and the white men are still at
large.
