DRUG STORE.

The drug store of Dr.. j. W. GAYLE.
on Ann street, was burglarized ON
Sunday night. Goods OF the value OF

and the police have as yet not dis
covered the manner OF his entrance
or exit. He took only the most ex-

Dr. Gayle had supposed his new
store was the most secure of any in
the city.

Letter Carrier Convicted.

GREENWLLE, October 26.-Robert
F. Shpckley formerly a rural LETTER.
carrier of Laurens county, was tfied
in the United States court here to-
day and convicted of misappropri-
ating moneys placed in his hands by
the patrons along his route. The
jury recommended Shockley to the
mercy of the court. He did not ap-
pear for trial, and has not yet been
sentenced.
Assistant Attorneys Lathrop and
Bacot, acting for the Government.
gave notice Of proceedings to escheat
Shockley's bond.
It seems that Shockley failed to
account for certain sums of money
given him by people in the county
who wished him to purchase money
orders for them. This is one Of the
duties of the rural carrier. Shock
,ley's attorneys introduced testimony
tending to show that the defendants
did not intend any criminal wrong,
but that he has neglected and mis-
placed the money and letters.

Terrible Crime In North Carolina.


CHARLOTTE, N. c., October 26. -
Delirious from drink, Ellis Hightow-
er shot and killed his aged mother IN
Gulledge Township, Arson county,
late last night, and then ATTEMPTED
suicide by taking strychnirie. The
physician summoned to attend, frus-
trated the attempt, but this morning
Hightower cut his throat with q
razor, bleeding to death before aid
could be summoned.
Last night the young man called
on his mother and sister, three miles
away. He had been drinking freely
several days and while sitting on the
porch talking fell asleep. The mother
called to arouse him and awaklng
suddenly. on the verge of delirqm
tremens, Hightower drew his pistol
and shot his aged parent through the
heart. The old woman had been
telling the boy of her love for him
before the tragedy. The son sat by
her side until the physician came,
half-sobered by the deed. Hightower
was noted blockade whiskey dealer.
He leaves a wife and four children.

CHESTERFIELD CASE HEARD.
State Board of Canvassers Consider
Appeal in Dispensary Election.

COLUMBIA, October 25.-The State
board of canvassers were in session
for several hours this afternoon, and
tonight hearing the appeal in the
case of the dispensary election in
Chesterfield county. The election
several months ago went against the
dispensary by a decisive majority,
but the result was contested on the
ground of irregularities, and the
election was declared illegal by the
county election board, and this appeal
has been taken by the prohibitionists
to the State board. An appeal was
heard to-day. The grounds Of the
contest are much the same as IN the
Kershaw case, but there are severa!
new points raised. The case will
doubtless 60 to the Supreme Court,
as has the Vershaw case, which is
now pending N that court.
The board decided to reverse the ac-
ton of the county board, which means
that the election was legal, and the
dispensaries in Chesterfield will have
to close. No doubt the dispensaryites
will now carry the case to the Su'
preme Court.

atrocious crime at Kingville, a little
station just across the Congaree
river, in Richland county. Dozia

here, got off the train at Kingville,
with her alleged illegitimate child in
her arms. When she returned to
board another train for Sumter,
where her family now live, it was no

Upon investigation it was found that
she had deliberately thrown the child
into little canal and killed it. She
was arrested and carried to Columbia
jail to await developments. She is
the daughter of a colored preacher
who lived and ministered IN this COM
munity for many years. y.
