Inquest Completed.

The jury of inquest over the body
of VIM. Turner who was killed at a
hot supper near Jalapa couple weeks
ago met again on Saturday and after
taking some additional testimony
brought in a verdict that
VIM. Turner came to his death by a
gunshot wound at the hands of par
ties unknown to the jury.
They found, however, that certain
parties had pistols and found as &C
cessories to the killing VIM. Jackson,
Jesse Jackson, Jim Davis and Gilbert
Clark. The three first named were
arrested and brought to the city and
were taken before Chief Justice Pope
and released on $3.50 bond each for
their appearance at court. Clark is
not yet able to be up. He was shot
nearly to death in the same row.

Shooting On The Train.

There was more or less drinking on
some of the crowded trains returning
from the fair last week. On the &. N.
& L freight on last Thursday night
some negroes got rather unruly and
Between Newberry and Jalapa began
shooting. Gus Golden and John Bur
ton were arrested for shooting Ben
Galhnan. They were put under ar
rest and taken on to Laurens. Sher-
# Buford brought them back to New
berry and they are now in the New
berry jail. DR.. Glider is attending
Ga1lman. It is understood that he is
not seriously hurt. Such reckless
shooting ought to be severely dealt
with because it interferes with the
rights of others and endangers hui
man life. The constant killings we
read of only show how little regard is
paid to the law against toting pistols.
1t will be so with any law where pub
lic sentiment is not in sympathy with
the law and the best people OF the
community go on violating it every
day.

"NICHT O. HALLOWEEN" :"
Tonight Supernatural Influences Will
;1-Entertainment in Ar
mory By Methodist Ladies.

This is the nicht O. Halloween,
Wihen a the witchie mcht be seen;
Some O. them black, some O. them
green,
Some O. them like a. turkey beam"
So will sing the BARN of Scotland
tonight, for it is the eve of All Hal
lows day, and the spirits of the dead
will wander abroad, and all the WITCH
es, devils and mischief-maklng elves
will hold their grand anniversary cefe-
Dration.
But how many maidens outside tile
land of Scott and Burns, perhaps in
America and possibly in South Caro-
lima, maybe in Newberry, will eat an
apple before mirror, feeling creepy
as they look over the shoulder in the
glass for the face of the sweetheart to
be? Or how many will! so down the
cellar stairs with a candle in one hand
and mirror in the other, for the same
expected vision? Or how many will
pluck two roses with long stems, and
going to their sleeping rooms without
speaking to anyone, and kneeling be-
side their beds, will twine together
the stems Of the two 1o5es, gazing
meanwhile intentlv upon the lovers
rose while they chant:
"Twine, twine and intertwine,
Let my love be wholly thine,
If his heart be kind and true,
Deeper grows his roses hue"
Surely there will be some, for OF
all the nights in the year, it is the one
upon which supernatural influences
most prevail, and it cannot be possible
thar the materialism of material age
has destroyed all the pretty supersti-
tions that have come down through
six hundred years.
From a festival of belief it has now
come to be festival of jest and mer-
ry making, but superstition still lin
gers yet awhile in human nature.
In Newberry tonight Halloween
will be observed, though not as gen.
orally as in the days gone BY At the
Armory the ladies Of the Methodist
church have arranged to give Hal
lowe'en party, and an unusually inter-
esting and attractive program has
been arranged. The ghosts and the
elves will be there, and there may be
some witches, but if there are any Of
the evil spirits, it is guaranteed that
the charms which they weave will be
of short duration. Refreshments will
charged at the door.

NEGRO ARRESTED.
One of the Parties to Cutting Scrape
Placed in Jail.

This morning Deputy Sheriff w
Fl. Forbes and M. II. Minnick went
to negro boarding house in the
city and arrested Andrew Babb and
Monroe Shaffer. Babb is the negro
who was engaged in a cutting scrape
with farmer named Walter Hender-
son on Mr.. Rutherford's farm near
Rocket Tuesday evening. A charge
of assault to murder has been filed
against him. pending an investigation
by the grand jury. Shaffer was pres
ent during the struggle between
Henderson and Babb, but ii is claim
ed he took no part. A charge of car
rying a pistol has been filed against
him
Babb was cut in fearful manner
by Henderson, who was also badly
wounded by the negro. The reporter
visited the jail this afternoon and
found Babb occupying a cot in the
hospital department He gave his
version of the affair, saying that
that the trouble came up over moth
ing. He and Henderson were in the
barn shucking corn and were having
la conversation about the work they
had done that day. The negro says
that all al once Henderson grabbed
a stick and struck him over the head
with it, inflicting painful wound
Babb says he was struck several
blows on the head before he attempt
ed to defend himself. The negro
says that when he got TO his feet
Henderson had out his knife and he
drew his. The two men then elench-
ed and began cutting each other in
a desperate manner. After being
separated by the negro Shaffer they
went to their houses, procured guns
and shot twice at each other. Babb
says that he used a rifle and that
Henderson had shotgun Neither
of the shots took effect
