On reaching the ranch, found my
two partners in much anxiety as to my
fate. One of them had just come in
from a trip down to the beach, and
had led home the pony, which he had
found hitched out by the trail, as had
left him.
l had covered a distance OF fully
eighty miles, and a number of days
passed before 1 recovered from the
effects of the journey. The experience
taught me never to set off again by
night or day without compass.
Beyond doubt these black neighbors
of ours had intended to put in execu-
tion their threat to kill and eat a
white man. If they could have sur
prised me, they would probably have
done so. None the less, l was very
glad l had not found it necessary to
shoot any of them, or open death
account with their tribe. Two of them
have already come to our place of
their own accord, and in time we shall
no doubt establish friendly relations
with them.-Youth's Companion.

Carolina is at least 20 per cent be-
low the same period last year.
There were frequent and some very
heavy rains during the week. The
rainfall was quite evenly distributed
and was very generally in excess OF
the weeks normal amount in all parts
of the state. A few localities only
had less than normal rainfall. The
so;l everywhere is saturated. Low
lands and swamps have much sur
face water on them. Except small
AREAS in the western central and the
northwestern counties where the
weeks rainfall was less than an inch,
the weekly amounts ranged from /
inch to over s inches
Destructive hailstorms occurred in

The Rise in the River.

It is little short of astonishing to see
how little water is required to float
the southern river steamers, boat
loaded with perhaps a thousand bales
Of cotton slipping along contentedly,
where a boy could wade across the
stream.
Not long ago, however, the Chatta-
hoochee got too low for even her light
draught commerce, and at Gunboat
Shoals the steamer grounded. AS the
drinking water on board needed re-
plenishing, a deckhand was sent
ashore with a couple of water buckets.
Just at this moment a northern trav-
eler approached the captain Of the
boat and asked him how long he
thought they would have to stay there.
"Oh, only until that man gets back
with bucket of water to pour into the
river" the captain replied. Presently
the deckhand returned, and the stale
water from the cooler was emptied
overheard. Instantly, to the amaze
ment of the traveller, the boat began
to move.
"Well, if that don't beat thunder"
he gasped.
The fact was, that the boat, touching
the bottom, had acted as dam, and
there was soon backed up behind her
enough water to lift her over the
shoal and send her on down t.
stream --Ha-pers Weekly.

TiIlman Using Pitchferk.

A Columbia dispatch says: When
the democratic executive committee
mapped out a schedule for the candi-
dates for the various state Offices, In
cluding candidates for the United
States senate and congress, Senator
B. R. Tillman announced that he
would not speak If his time was linn
tied. At that time he had opposition
in the parsonage of Colonel w. w.
Lumpkin, and it was decided to have
a campaign of his own, and choose
his own places of speaking. Colonel
Lumpkin withdrew after attending
several of the meetings, which left
a clear field for the senator. Lump
kin's withdrawal, however, did not
change Senator Tillman's plans, and.
accordingly he has been making a.
speech every day except Sunday for
the last four weeks in an effort TO
save the dispensary as state 1nsti.
tuition.
Whether or not the senator's inter.
ference in state issues will have the
effect of electing a sufficient number
of members to the general assembly
toaretain the state dispensary is an
uncertain question, but it is safe to
saw that the revelations made by the

MURDER MYSTERY CLEARED UP.
Negro Now Serving Life Sentence
Also slew Atlanta Policeman. ~

s.
The mystery surrounding the mur-
der CT Policeman R. L. Albert, who
was assassinated in Atlanta nine
years ago, has at last been solved.
The assassin has been located.
The assassin was negro. His name
is Jim Sheppard and he is now serv-
ing a lifetime sentence in the Geor.
gia state penitentiary for anotSe.
murder.
This felon, with two murders TO
his charge, has told his story. In fact
he told it at the time it happened,
but to those who kept the secret.
On the morning of July 1S, 1887,
Officer Albert was patroling the beat
on which is the Broad street bridge.
At daylight four negroes, among
whom was Jim Sheppard, were shoot
ing craps under an arc light. Ihe
noliceman saw them and ran toward
them. The negroes tried to run away,
but the policeman was in time TO
seize two of them. There was a scui-
ae in which the officer drew his
nistol. Sheppard was one Of the ne
groes who had not been seized. When
he saw that his two pals were abous
to get shot he drew a pistol and fired
at the officer, the bullet taking eli
feet.
Officer Albert released his hold on
his prisoners and returned the fire OF
Jim Shephard. There was chase for
q few yards when the negro lost his
hat and the officer fell dead upon the
bridge. It will be remembered how
the detectives kept that hat as a
clew
This is the story that Jim Sheppard
went 70 his home and told on the
morning Of the murder. At that time
he lived with his father and mother
on Grant street.
Jim Sheppard left the city that
same day on the advice OF his reia-s
1ives, and went to Coweta county,
near Senoia, where he stopped with
his cousin, George Mathis. To Mathis
Jim told the same story of how he
had killed the policeman that he had
told his father and mother in At
lanta.
From Coweta county Jim went to
Meriwether county, where he was
hired by a man named Evans until
1905.
In 1905 Sheppard killed another ne
gro, Jim Cofield, who was his brother
in-law. For this crime he was found
guilty and given a life sentence ID
the oenitentiary. He is now serving
that sentence in the Dade coal mines.
The next move will be to have Shep-
hard brought to Atlanta from the
coal mines, so that he can be tried
for the murder of Officer Albert. He
NAV then tell who were his pals
on the morning that Officer Albert
was assassinated.

A few days ago state constables

Promoters of the proposed electric
line from Spartanburg to Aiken via
Glenn Springs are working on their
plans in a quiet way and it is said
that before late date they will have
an interesting announcement to make
to the public.
During Te present season the need
of such a line has been manifested
in several ways, and this, it is said,
has impressed the owners OF the re-
sort with the necessity OF better IA
cilities for transporting intended
