was made president of the mill, in az
dition to his other duties. Under his
management the mill has been re-
markably successful and he had the
confidence and the esteem and the love
of the operatives and those under him
as few men have who hold similar posi-
tions. He was Chairman of the Board
of Deacons of the Presbyterian Church
and liberal supporter of the Church.
In 1873 Mr.. McCrary was married to
Miss Clara Johnstone, daughter of the
late Chancellor Job Johnstone. AS
clerk, as bank officer, as mill president,
as husband, as citizen, Mr.. McCrary
measured up to the true man. He was
a good citizen and an upright gentle
man and his sudden taking off is great
loss to this community. He was SO
years of age. The funeral services will
be held tomorrow afternoon from the
residence at 5 O'Clock and interment i'm

Negro Killed in DiaIs.

Last Wednesday night on the planta
ton of Mr.. III. j. G. Curry, Dials town
ship, George Gilliand was fatally shot
by John Evans, another young negro of
the community. Gilliland fingered
few days, dying Saturday night as the
result of the wound. The inquest was
held on Sunday by Magistrate Hellams
and the verdict of the jury was in ac-
cordance with the facts stated above.
1t seems that Gilliland was whipping
negro woman, said to be his aunt,
when Evans interferred. Gillland re-
sented this and attacked Evans with
his knife whereupon Evans drew his
pistol and fired upon Gililand. Evans
has given himself up TO the sheriff.

VOTED OUT IN NEWBERRY.
Despite the Efforts of Senator Blease Dis
pensary Badly Defeated.

Newberry, Aug. 80. Here in the
home of chairman H. H. Evans and
Blease, his champion, the dispensary
was knocked out yesterday by vote
which was early estimated at more than
two to one. The result was not sur
prise to the advocates of the law, for
they realized immediately after the
Spartanburg investigation, that the evil
dence of corruption and graft had chang
ed sentiment and while many citizens
may have doubted the effectiveness of
prohibition, they wanted to register a
stinging rebuke to the system so bittirly
condemned the better element in South
Carolina.
The first fourteen precincts reported
showed 237 votes for the dispensary
witq 1888 against it, There are "a pre-
cincts in the county. The result cannot
be changed by the vote at the other
precincts.

DEATH OF MILL PRESIDENT.
Mr.. Thos. j. McCrary of Newberry Dies
Suddenly,

NEwBERRY, August 80. 0.-This COM
munity was greatly shocked this morn
ing when it was announced that Thos.
j. McCrary was critically ill, and much
greater was the shock when it was an
nounced that at IL O'Clock he was dead.
Yesterday he was in his accustomed
health and about his accustomed busi-
ness. AT IL O'Clock last night he was
taken with congestion and died at IL to
day. Mr.. McCrary was native of
Laurens County, being born near Clin-
ton. He came to Newberry when quite
a young man and clerked for several
years for w. 7. Tarrant, beginning in
1871. In 1880 he went to the National
Bank, first as bookkeeper, and then as
assistant cashier. He was with the
bank twelve years. In 1892 he was
made treasurer and general manager of
the Newberry Cotton Mill upon the
death of Mr.. III. G.. Robertson. In 1899,
upon the death of James N. Martin he

INCENDIARY FIRES
AROUSES CITIZENS.
The Governor PetitiOned to Offer Re-
ward for Supposed Fire Bugs In
YOungs Township.

While in the city Thursday after
noon, Mr.. Claude Leonard, progress
sive young farmer of Youngs township,
mailed a numerously signed petition to
Governor Hayward, asking his Excel
lency to offer suitable reward for the
apprehension and conviction of the
party or parties, supposed to be guilty
of series of incendiary fires on the
plantation of Mr.. B. e. Leonard, young
Leonard's father. The principal loser
by the fires is Allen Shell, colored
tenant, who has been completely
burned out within month.
The petition recites that on the 9th
of July the negro's barn and buggy
house and all their contents were
burned. Last Sunday or just month
from the date of the first fire, his dwell
ing and all contained therein also went
up in smoke and two days later the
third burned to death the fellows only
mule, which had been placed in the sta
bles of his brother, Hilary Shell, an
other tenant on the place. And another
rather singular thing about these fires
is the fact that they occurred about
four O'Clock in the afternoon in each
and every instance.
Shell is said to be peaceable and
hardworking negro and he cannot un-
derstand why the fire demon pursues
him so relentlessly. The white citizens
of the entire community are thoroughly
aroused over such an outbreak of law
lessness and they stand ready to sup
plement the reward if any the Gov
ernor may offer or they may and, in
all probability will, offer one inde-
pendently.
Gov. Hayward acted promptly on the
petition and has offered reward of
5000 for the arrest Of the incendiaries
with proof to convict.

YOUNG WHITE MAN
KILLED in WRECK.
Willie HOttal Of Spartan
burg the Victim.
THE TRAIN PARTED.
Section of Through Freight No. IA,
Wrecked Near Waterloo With
Fatal Result.

Willie Hottal, aged 18, son Of Mr.. J.
X. Hottal of Spartanburg, was killed
and three or four negro employees of
the railroad were more or less injured
in wreck on the Charleston G. West
ern Carolina Railway between Cole Point
and Waterloo, nine miles South of Leu-
rens, last Wednesday night shortly after
one o'clock.
The wreck was caused by the rear
section of through freight No. II, south
bound, becoming detached and running
into the otller portion of the train. The
detached section was composed of sew
eral shanty cars and the caboose and it
seems that young Hottal was on the
foremost platform or the steps of the
uncoupled section when it crashed into
the other section, which was being
slowed down gradually, striking box
car with terrific and death-dealing force.
Mr.. Hottal's body was crushed and
mangled in a terrible manner and the
several darkies within the same car
were badly hurt. The body of Mr..
Hottal was taken to Waterloo and pre-
pared for shipment to his family at
Spartanburg while the negroes were
carried on to Greenwood.
Young Hottal came to Laurens the
evening before from Greenville and he
told some of his friends here that he
was going back to the Mountain City
next morning, being employed there as
fireman on q cwitch anoina IN fba
Southern Railway yards. He had done
similar work in Spartanburg and for
time he ran between that city and Aug
usta as newsboy.
The track was obstructed only few
hours by reason of the wreck and by
nine O'Clock Thursday morning trains
were running through.

TREATY OF PEACE
HAS BEEN SIGNED.
Signatures Affixed to Doc
ument Yesterday.
AN EXCLUSIVE AFFAIR
Some of the Provisions of the Treaty..
President Roosevelt Praised-..En-
VOWS Anxious TO Return.

VOyS Anxious 10 Keturn.
The treaty of peace which was agreed
to at Portsmouth, N. H., last Tuesday
by the Peace Commissioners of Russia
and Japan was formally signed by each
of the plenipotentiaries yesterday after
noon. 1t was agreed Monday after
noon that the ceremony of affixing the
ENJOYS signatures to the document
should take place Tuesday afternoon at
8 O'Clock.
The signing of the treaty was ar
ranged to be very exclusive affair.
Newspaper correspondents and photo
graphers were barred. Besides the
Secretary of State Pierce, representing
there was present only Assistant
President Roosevelt; Gov. McLane of
New Hamsphire; the Mayor of Ports
mouth; Admiral Mead and the Com
manders of any of the United States
warships in the harbor at the time.
Secretary Pierce supplied four ordinary
quill pens, with one of which each of
the ENJOYS signed his name to the
treaty.
Immediately after peace terms were
agreed upon the work of drafting the
treaty began and was completed Mon
day. The ENJOYS expressed themselves
as being anxious to conclude their work
and return to Retrospective countries.
The treaty will probably be known as
"The Treaty of Portsmouth.
Of course there was great rejoicing
when it became known that peace terms
had been agreed upon. 1t meant the
ending of 18 months of the bloodiest
war in modern times waged by two of
the great nations of the world. The
final terms of peace were settled by M.
Witte of Russia and Baron Komura of
Japan at the Conference Tuesday morn
ing. Japan waived the war indemnity
and agreed to cede half of the Island of
Sakhaln to Russia. This is generally
regarded by the world as magnanim-
GUS act on the part of Japan.
The efforts of President Roosevelt in
bringing the Peace Conference to a
successful issue have been praised and
lauded throughout the civilized world.

The Example of Japan.

Atlanta Journal.
The progress of Japan carries with it
lesson which the other powers of the
world will do well to learn. Without the
believed advantages of Western civili-
zation, the land of the mikado has made
her way silently, without pomp and an
nouncement, in the family of nations.
Hardly over three decades ago Japan
laid aside her samurai her traditions
of the past and began her lesson as a
pupil of the western nations, retaining,
however, the diplomacy and strategy
of the Orient until now she presents
perhaps the strongest sight of the COM
posite picture of development of physi-
cal and intellectual power. Now after
her success in her struggle with Russia
she has already aroused feeling of
fear and suspicion among the other
powers,

Severe Rubbing or Scratching OF the
Scalp Should Always Be
Avoided.

There is right way and wrong way
to wash the hair, says an authority,
and one of the wrong ways is to apply
the cake of soap directly to the head.
I suppose nine out Of ten people Go this;
but it is wrong, nevertheless. When
the cake of soap is rubbed on the hair
it crusts there and often cannot De
rinsed out with the most elaborate ap-
plications of water.
To wash the hair properly, so as to
cleanse the head thoroughly, and at the
same time leave the hair in good condi-
ton. lather should be made from soap
in somewhat the same general way as
for shaving, and this lather then applied
to the hair. Hot water should be used
in making the lather, while little
borax and just a drop or two or am
monia added will do much toward pre-
serving the natural softness of the hair.
Hot water ought also to be used for the
rinsing, save toward the finish of the
operation, when cooler water may be
employed, to prevent any possibility OF
taking cold when the hair is drying
The rinsing should be most carefully
done, for the smallest quantity of soap
clinging to the hair will prove a veri-
table catch-all for dust and germs, and
perhaps lead eventually to diseased
condition of the hair and scalp.
One thing that people should avoid
in cleansing the hair is rubbing too
hard. Men especially are prone to use
their finger nails on the scalp, ard the
habit is found to some extent among
women also The scalp is not rendered
any cleaner by doing this than it would
be by drying gently, and the hard scrub
bling will have a tendency to inf1ame the
roots of the hair and cause it to fall out
