Clerk of Court Presented.

The grand jury of Colleton county,
at the recent term of court there,
presented Clerk of Court H. D. Padg-
ett for charging greater fees for re-
cording than is allowed by law. The
jury stated in their presentment that
the matter had been reported to
them and they had the clerk Of court
before them to explain, but his ex-
planation was unsatisfactory, 20 they
brought the matter before the court
for investigation. Judge Purdy told
the jury that the presentment was
too general, as it stated no actual
case or any witnesses, so the present
ment amounted to nothing. 1t is
likely that the grand jury will make
a specific case against the clerk.

YEGGMEN TO BE TRIED.
Men in the Atlanta Penitentiary to
be Brought to Aiken.

AIKEN, December Civilian Nc
Kinley and Dugan, the two yeggmen
who burglarized Mr.. ]. T. Shuler' s
store at Montmorenci in 1902, and
who were convicted of other crimes
and sent to the Atlanta penitentiary,
will be brought back for trial at the
expiration of their sentence. 1t is
understood that warrants have been
sworn out for them and arrange
ments are now being made for their
prosecution.
Mckinley and Dugan were two of
the party of yeggmen who were
working" South Carolina at that
time. They visited Mr.. Shuler''s
store, breaking into it with tools
taken from a blacksmith shop. They
blew open his safe with nitro-glycer-
inc. The total value of their booty
from this escapade amounted to
nearly $1,000, including $500 cash
and all the stamps in the postofice.

KNIGHTS of PythiaS.

At regular meeting of Bamberg
Lodge, No. 38, Knights of Pythias,
held last Monday evening, the rank
of Esquire was conferred upon Mr..
M. M. Smoak.
In view of the fact that the next
regular meeting of the lodge is to
be held on Monday evening, the 24th
instant, which is Christmas eve, and
the probability being that there
would likely be a. small attendance,
it was thought best to elect officers
for the ensuing year at the last meet
ing. The following officers were
elected:
J. F. Carter-Chancellor Conn.,
mander.
J. Aldrich Wyman-Vice Chan
cellor.
C. F. Ellzey-Prelate.
L. B. Fowler-Master of Work.
H. C. Folk-Keeper of Records
and Seal and Master of Finance.
A. E. H. Simmons Master Of
Exchequer.
w. M. McCue-Master at Arms.
w. D. Besinger-Inner Guard.
H. w. Adams-Outer Guard.
A. w. Knight-Trustee for three
years.
These officers will be installed by
District Deputy w D. Rhoad at the
first regular meeting in January.

CATION Of the Methodist church. a
preacher has been assigned by the
conference to the mission chapel
here. The minister sent is Rev. j.
C. Thomas, and he will arrive in the
next few weeks to take charge of the
work. The money to supply this
minister was raised by subscriptions
of 500 from the Woman's Home
Missionary Society, $50 from the Ep-
worth League, and other pledges
which run the amount up to $500 or
more, and the conference mission
board subscribed $500. This work
at the chapel here has been very
near to the heart of Rev. Peter
Stokes, and he has worked hard and
faithfully in order that the chapel
might be supplied. Mr.. Thomas will
live here and devote his whole time
to the work.

TRAGEDY AT SPARTANBURG.
Little Boy the Innocent Agent of a
Fearful Accident.

SPARTANBURG, December 6-What
will probably prove to be a triple
tragedy occurred this afternoon at
Cedar Springs, by the accidental dis;
charge Of a shotgun in the hands OF
Heintish Coggins, aged 8 years. His
twin sister, Hattie Lou, is dead, and
Heintish and a colored girl are fatal
ly wounded.
Lisco Coggins, the father of the
Coggins children, had just returned
from a hunting trip. He placed the
gun in his room and it was picked up
by young Coggins, who pointed the
gun at his sister. The gun went off
accidentally, the load entering the
body Of the boys twin sister, killing
her instantly. A colored girl, who
was standing near, received a portion
of the load and may die at any mo-
ment. When the gun was discharged
it recoiled, the butt striking the boy
in the head, inficting a serious
wound.
