A Heavy Loss.

Mr.. P. W. Sandifer, who lives few
miles from town, suffered heavy loss by
Gre last Monday afternoon. About four
O'Clock it was discovered that his large
saw mill, grist mill and ginning plant
was on fire, and the flames had then gain
ed such headway that practically nothing
could be saved.
His son, Mr.. Sim Sandifer, was super
intending the saw mill when the tre
broke out, they having started up at II
o'clock on Monday to saw some lumber.
Fifteen bales of cotton were in the build
ing and two were totally destroyed. The
others were hauled to Dowlings mill
pond and thrown in the water, but they
are badly damaged and very little OF 1t
will be saved. It will all have TO be re-
packed, and not more than a total OF tve
bales will be realized. 1t is said that the
loss in machinery, buildings, cotton, fer
tilizers, cotton seed, ETC., will be about
seven thousand dollars, which is most
heavy loss for Mr. Sandifer, and his many
friends sympathize with him in his mis-.
fortune. The fire is supposed to have
caught in the roof from spark from the
engine.

HOMICIDE AT DUNBARTON.
A Merchant Kills a Farmer, Former Quarrel
BEING Renewed When They Met in the Road.

BARSwELL, March 23-A very unfort-
unate homicide occurred at Dunbarton
this morning. J. b. Skinner, a merchant
at that place, shot and killed Miller D.
Anderson, prominent farmer. 1t appears
that on previous occasion in the month
of January they had an alteration, re-
sulting in a fight, and Mr.. Skinner OBJ.
tanned the advantage, and since then bad
blood has existed between them. This
morning Mr.. Skinner, who also plants,
was on his way to his farm, some distance
from Dunbarton, accompanied by his
nephew, 7-year.old son of B. F. Weeks,
and carried his gun for the purpose of
shooting some birds for the boy. Whilst
driving on his way he encountered An.
derson in his buggy, accompanied by his
wife, bride of few months, and endeav-
ored to turn out and give him the road, but
was stopped by Anderson, who asked If
he wanted to see him. Skinner replied
that he did not. Anderson then said:
"Well, YOU did when you beat me with
those brass knucks." Skinner responded.
"Miller, you know that is not true and
that I never had any knucks." Anderson
said, AL right, we will settle this thing
now" and raised his gun, but Skinner was
quicker and shot him in the forehead.
Killing him instantly. Luckily his wife
escaped injury.
Skinner Immediately came to Barnwell
and surrendered to the sheriff and is now
in Jail. It is rumored that the cause Of the
was some careless remarks OF An
derson in regard to SINNERS wife.

1T PAYS.
It pays to wear a smiling face,
And laugh our troubles down,
For all our little trials wait,
Our laughter or our frown;
Beneath the magic of smile
Our doubts will fade away,
As melts the frost in early spring
Beneath the sunny ray.
It pays to make worthy cause
By helping it our own,
To give the current of our lives
A true and noble tone;
1t pays to comfort heavy hearts,
Oppressed with dull despair,
And leave in sorrow darkened lives,
A CLEAN of brightness there.
