Twentieth Century Train on
Lake Shore Jumps Track
1 SCORE OF PASSENGERS INJURED
u,,v Others Were Injured-Train
Took Fire and Some Persons
Burned to Death.

CLEVELAND, O., June 22.-N1ne-
teen lives were lost, according to late
ronorts in the wreck of the Twentieth
Century Limited on the Lake Shore at
Mentor at 9:2O last night. More than
a score were injured. The record
breaking train, travelling 70 miles an
hour. struck an open switch in front
of Mentor station and plunged with
frightful momentum into a freight
house 700 feet distant, concerting the
caught fire. Few people in the for
ward combination car escaped death
or injury. Rescuers fought the flames
TO recover the dead and succor the in
iured. The latter were taken to Cleve7
land on a special train and removed
10 hospitals. Railway officials say
that a switch was misplaced by mis-
creant with the deliberate intention of
wrecking the limited.

Patent Medicines win Feel Effects.

Washington, September 23.-The COM
missioner of internal revenue to-day rem
dered decision that will seriously Affect
number of patent medicines composed
largely of distilled liquors. He has re-
versed ruling of his department made
many years ago and now decides that tho
manufacturers of these medicines must
dealers and that druggists and others
handling them will have to pay the
usual retail liquor dealers license.
The commissioner, in a letter of in
struction to collectors of internal reve-
nue., says that there are number of
the name of medicines that are composed
chiefly of distilled spirits, without the
addition of drugs or medicines in suffi-
oient quantities to change the character
of the whiskey.
While no statement is made by the
commissioner as to the medicines that
will be affected, it is believed that seve-
raj prominent and highly advertised
medicines will be affected by the
decision. In some instances the
medicines have been found to con-
tain as high as As per cent of
alcohol, and there are many on the
market, it is said, that contain 25 per
cent alcohol These medicines are said
to have immense sales in prohibition
communities, figures collected in Massa.
chusetts recently showing, it is said, that
one muoh-advertised compound with a
hi5h percentage of whiskey had been
bought to the extent of 100000 bottles in
one year in prohibition communities Of
one New England State.

TiIlman's Speech at Lancaster.

We heard only a small portion Of Sena-
tor Tillman's speech at Lancaster last
Friday. He was more than an hour late
in commencing and we had to leave a
little more than thirty minutes after he
began. In the short time that we were
there, however, we observed that he was
shorn in a great measure Of that old
time fire, and there was absent from the
meeting the old time enthusiasm.
The crowd numbered possibly $50 or
375, not more than about half of them
being from the country. There Ma, very
little demonstration. They listened in
silence, and from this observance and
information gained, we regard it ex.
ceedingly doubtful that the Senator 8
coming has changed in any degree the
situation.
In our opinion Senator Tillman's inter
ference in local affairs, even "by request" :"
is unwarranted and will be rebuked. He
condemned it in others to their serious
injury and need not, therefore, be sur
prised if he is injured by his course.
This is an off year in politics, the people
are trying to settle a moral question
which each county will have to paes
upon for itself, and it is not sufficient
excuse for his meddling that he is in
vited, is not afraid to express his views,
but does not want to be regarded as a
meddler. Senator Tillman's views are
old and they are indeed also well known
The people need no further instructions
from him along moral lines. They are
now ready to vote and they do not want
to be nterfered with or molested in this
right of theirs.
The dispensary is doomed, and it is
just as we'll to recognize that fact. The
people asked for prohibition because
they wanted it, and now they are deter
mined to have it. And why should they
not have it?-The Kershaw Era, SeptenI-
Der 18th.

Nashville Has Automobile Lines.

New York, September 23.--That X. II.
Boyd, president of tho Penny Savings
Bank of Nashville, Tenn, has purchased
in this city four large automobiles for
use on new street automobile line for
negroes in that city, was announced
to-day. The vehicles are to be used by
the Union Transport Company of Nash
Vile. Rev. G. n. Parrish, of Louisville,
KY, negro stockholder in the new
company, said
"a law granting the conductors of the
street railways power of police to remove
passengers from any seat in the car, and
to arrest whoever refuses, was passed
several months ago. 1t is worded to
apply both to the blacks and the whites,
but it is really directed only against the
blacks, and since it was passed several
negroes have been arrested for refusing
to obey the conductors. AS a result, the
receipts in fares have fallen of $500 a
week since the law was passed. The
negroes Immediately organized com
pany of their own and began by using
wagons. They found that they owned
among themselves 10 vehicles which they
could use for the purpose. The enter
prise has prospered, and yesterday
went with Mr.. Boyd to purchase four
large steam automobiles, which will be
run in place of cars. The purpose of the
company is to give the negroes of Nash
willie equal rights with tho whites as pas
sengers. It's not our purpose to exclude
the whites, and as automobiles arc
something of novelty in Nashville, we
expect that the whites will patronizo our
company"

South Carolina State Fair.

Columbia, Septem Der %. - Prepara-
tiops are rapidly making for the coming
State Fair, to be held the last week in
October, and indications point to a still
more enjoyable fall festival than was par
tioipated in by some fifteen thousand
people last year. The premium lists
have now been out several weeks in
every corner of the State aud Secretary
Love is daily receiving hundreds of let
ters from those who want space on the
grounds for exhibition, advertising and
other purposes.
Last year much trouble was ex-
perienced in getting to and from the new
grounds on account of the unsatisfactory
car service, interminable delays being
the order of the day throughout the
week. Steps have been taken this time
to avoid all this trouble, and give a quick
service between the city and the fair
grounds. The street car people have
double e-tracked their line out to the
grounds, this double track with the
Main and Sumter Street connections,
reaching from the grounds to Elmwood
avenue. Nearly all of the new loop has
been laid and it will be in operation in
plenty of time for fair uses.
This year the State Fair Society has
arranged for a number of free shows at
the grounds. This will be a new feature,
the free shows heretofore being confined
to the streets.
Tho Cha mber of Commerce has also
gotten to work earnestly for attract tions
up street. Arrangements will be made
for number of street shows to be fur
nished by carnival company, aud there
will be various parades, conventions of
all sorts. The Chamber of Commerce
has appointed strong committees on
finance, amusement, illustrations, trans
portation, music and publicity and in
formation.

SHERIFF ellaEArH DOES GOOD WORK.
Men Who Assailed Hawkins are Located In
Columbia Story Of the crime.
IGreenville Herald, September is.

lGreenville Herald, September l5.i
Sheriff Gilreath has accomplished
good piece of work in running down the
asSailants of Dan Hawkins with only the
most uncertain clues to aid him in the
search. The sheriff has located the two
men in Columbia and Deputy Ballenger
will bring them back to Greenville Sat
urday. The asssilants of Hawkins are,
it is alleged, John Henderson and Tom
Vaughn, tie men arrested in Columbia
yesterday.
Sheriff Gilreath, up the occasion of his
visit to Hawkins at Calhoun this week,
gathered from the incoherent statements
of the injured man that the two men
above named were implicated in the af
fair resulting from the serious and pos
sibly fatal injury of Hawkins, who is
still in a precarious condition. This
fact, together with one or two other
clues picked up by the sheriff in his in
vestigation of the case, led the officer to
search for the men, Vaughn and Hender-
son, and last night a message was received
from Columbia that two men answering
to the description of those wanted by
the sheriff had been looked up in that
city awaiting orders from Greenville.
Sheriff Gilreath has dispatched Deputy
Ballepger to Columbia to bring the men
here, and the officer with his prisoners
is expected back Saturday morning. The
preliminary trial will be at Magistrate
Stradley's office.
The Story from Clemson.
A special to the News and Courier
from Clemson College says: The case
of j. ID. Hawkins is developing into
most remarkable sensation. The facts
which have transpired indicate the most
fiendish foul play and attempt at das-
tardly crime. The story is as follows:
A gang of men, about seven in num-
ber, attacked Hawkins in Greenville Sat
urday, and Hawkins thinks he was put
on the southbound train and brought as
far as Calhoun and then put in a buggy
and brought the rest Of the way. The
party reached Calhoun after dark and
supposing that Hawkins was dead or
nearly 80, dragged him to a point about
midway between Calhoun and Seneca
river. Then they laid him across the
track in expectation that some train
would run over him and obliterate the
traces of their fiendish work. But he
was sufficiently conscious to know what
was going on, and when they had gone
away he rolled from the track, but was
unable to move far and could not call for
help. All this occurred on the afternoon
and night of Saturday, September 2,
aud he was found Sunday afternoon and
was taken by Mr.. and Mrs. Chapman,
who live near where he was, and they
have cared for him. His skull was frac-
tured. one hand and arm broken, two
places in his head requires to be sewed
up, and other injuries. Drs. Redfearn
and McWhorter have had charge of the
case, and the patient has been una ble to
tell coherent story until now.
