Fisher and O'Day.
Question as to Whether They
Are to be Kept in Jail or
Sent to Penitentiary, Pend
ing Appeal, Submitted to
Governor.

Having, by letter, submitted
TO Gov. Hayward the question as
to whether Fisher and O'Day
shall be kept in the Jail here or
sent to the penitentiary, pending
their appeal TO the Supreme
court, Sheriff Hunter received
yesterday the following reply
from his excellency:
Hon. Jno P. Hunter, Sheriff,
Lancaster County,
Lancaster, S. @.
My Dear Captain:
l am in receipt of yours, 18th
inst, which has been duly con.
sidered.
Replying, beg to say that it
has been my custom to order
prisoners brought to the peniten
tlary only when l am convinced
that the Jail, in which they are
being confined, is unsafe or that
the prisoners are in danger of
violence. If you make a state
ment to me that in your opinion
the Lancaster County Jail is un
safe, will have you bring Fisher
and O'Day to the penitentiary.
AS regards keeping your pris-
oners IN cage i'll the Jail, 1 am
under the impl ession that these
cages are kept in the county jails
for the purpose of confining the
prisoners, who are of such a des-
perate character that in the judg
nent of the Sheriff it is unwise
to give them the run of the Jail.
If Fisher and O'Day are men of
such character, in my opinion
you have a perfect right to keep
them so confined.
If | can serve you further in
this matter | will be glad to hear
from you. Very truly yours,
ID. G.. Hayward,
Governor.
Upon the receipt of the fore.
going letter Sheriff Hunter sent
the Governor the following:
'In reply to your favor of yes
terday's date, l would state that
in my judgment, the Lancaster
Jail is unsafe to keep safe crack
ers or any desperate violators of
the law, unless kept in the iron
cage, in which l now have the
saie-crackers, John Fisher and
Charles O'Day.
To keep these prisoners in this
cage away from fire by which
they may warm during cold
weather, may be detrimental to
their health, and for this reason
as well as some other reasons
7tated in my communication to
you of the 18th, inst, would be
glad to be instructed to place
them in the penitentiary, there
70 be kept while the appeal is
pending, ETC."

Ugly Charge.
Against White Man in Co.
| u m b i a--Identifed by
Young Lady as Party who
Attempted to Assault Her
The Accused in Jail.
The State, Oct. 19tA.

| Hh attempted assault upon a
young lady, daughter of one o.
the well known families of the
county, led to the arrest yester-
day afternoon of Dan Slocum. a
white man who has recently
came to Columbia to engage in
the feather renovating business
with the National Cleaning com.
pany.
Slocum and one of his associa.
tes, Joe Elam, were arrested at
Strickland's livery stables on
Taylor street on warrant sworn
out before Magistrate Lykes. The
arrests were made by Mr.. Ly kes,
W. S. Green, acting as his con-
stable, and Patrolmau Lamb of
the police force.
The attack upon the young
lady is alleged to have been
made at her home in the county
about II miles from the city on
Tuesday. 1t was not allowed to
become known until yeste rday
when after conference of the
young lady's relatives the war
rant was drawn and the arrest
followed within an hour after
wards. Slocum was taken i'm.
mediately to the police station
and when the young lady arriv.
ed and he was ushered into her
presence she identified him i'm
mediately and positively. Later
In the afternoon the prison er
was turned over to the custody
of the sheriff and was placed in
the county Jail, where he now
is.
1t is said that Slocum and a
young man named Cooper were
in the country canvassing for
work. They drove up to the
home of the young lady's father
and Slocum going up to the door,
where he was met by the young
lady, told her what his business
was and asked if she had any
such work to be done. Some
discussion of the matter followed
and Slocum was invited into the
house to examine the articles to
be renovated. The young lady
was alone at home and when
they entered the room Slocum is
said to have seized her but her
resistance was so determined that
she broke away from him and
escaped. The man then lett the
house and drove away.
The arrest of Dan Slocum on
the charge of criminal assault
yesterday brought about the
arrest of all of his associates in
the cleaning or renovating com
pany with which he is connected,
except one who could not be
found in the city up to midnight
last night. The men arrested
ed besides Slocum are r. A. Eu
banks and Joe Elam. The
fourth n m who has not yet been
arrested is Alvin johnson. The
two named are being held at
police headquarters until certain
information now In possession OF
the police can be Investigated.
Elam is the only one of the men
who is married. He and his
wife are boarding at the corner
of Plain and Sumter streets but
the boarding place of the others
could not be learned.

"a IdGuer r6marKaDl lnClden +
occurred last Tuesday at Osceola
la, a station in this county on
the Seaboard Air Line.
About 2 o'clock in the after
noon a stranger, well dressed
young white man, who came
walking the railroad track from
the direction of Waxhaw, ap
preached some hands who were
grading a side track at the sta
tlon and asked them if there
was postoffice nearby. They
directed him to the building
not far off, where he according
ly went. On entering the office
he asked The postmaster, Mr..
W. R. Gordon, who is also the
railroad agent, for a STAMP
which was given him, he at
the same time handing Mr..
Gordon nickel. After receiv-
ing his change the stranger
asked several questions as to
when a train would be due.
Mr.. Gordon telling him that a
train going north would arrive
at $50.
About this time Mr.. j. A.
Gregory, the contractor from
whose hands the stranger had
gotten directions to the Office,
walked in and joined in the
conversation. The stranger be,
came restless, would not sit
down but kept walking about
the room IN an excited manner
His hat was pulled down over
his eyes and he would occasion
ally cas- iurtive glances at
Messrs. Gordon and Gregorv
never at any. time looking
directly at them.
After repeating several times
his questions about trains, sthe
man finally asked.Mr. Gordon n
|
Tor permission to leave his over
coat-a nice new one-with him
while he stepped outside for a
moment.
Nothing has been seen of the
stranger since, and his oyercoat
is still at Osceola.
The next morning Mr.. Cor.
don's attention was directed by
some one to the fact that flies
were swarming over the coat ;
whereupon an examination was
made of it. In the pockets
were found a sweater, three
freshly laundried collars and a
gentleman's dress skirt, whic h
had apparently been worn once
or twice. The right side of
the shirt, extending from the
collar downward, was saturated
with blood, as though the wear.
or had been cut or stabbed in
the neck. 1t was the bloody
shirt that had attracted the
flies. There is no mark on anv
of the garments indica ing the
name of the owner.

The Condition Of the Public
Roads in the County--They
Need Work and Plenty of
lt--Strong Appeal to the
Proper Authorities to Get
Busy.

see 'he grand jury has again
called attention to the bad con-
dition of our public roads and
reported our Supervisor for not
carrying out the law in having
them worked "and here the
matter ends" says the people.
Our roads are bad, too bad,
and | don't believe there is a
man in the county that wants
to see them improved and made
good worse than myself. This
Is my excuse, for about ten
articles that | have written on
"Our Roads," and this will be
my excuse TO write until some-
body has them worked. Our
roads have been worked less
than one day a year for the
last ten years and now they are
needing little work.
L have lately travelled in
Union, Chesterfield, Kershaw,
Fairfield and Chester counties,
and L find the roads in each one
of the adjoining counties being
improved, and why not in Lam
caster county too?
If a hand fails to work. the
overseer reports him if an over
seer fails to work, the Super
visor reports him ; if super
visor fails to work, the grand
jury reports him, and here the
matter ends. We have about
twenty six hundred men subject
to road duty in our county, and
the law l am told requires 4
days year for each hand; now
our roads have not been worked
but about one half day year
! (or "less than one day") for
the past ten years. Let us see
for a minute what we have lost
taking hand to be worth so
cents a day. Twenty-six hun
dred hands three days a year
amounts to 5000 dollars a year,
and for ten years, thirty nine
thousand dollars. This is whv
our roads are so much worse
than the roads of other coun.
ties.
We are losing about four
thousand dollars worth of work
a year that the law requires,
1t would pay our county richly
to pay our sheriff one thousand
dollars a year extra 10 see that
our roads are worked according
to law. To work our roads will
benefit every class of people in
our county, but the farming
class especially, and will not
hurt anybody.
L call upon the road hands,
the overseers, Supervisor, and
our county authorities to help
get better roads-and in ad.
dition to general improvements
would like to see some perma
nent road building going on.
