Southington, July 2S.-Discussion is
rife in the borough over the recent ap-
pointment of Officer Dutton and the
manner in which he was invited to
take the office. The selectmen are said
to have tried their best to get out of
the difficulty by stating that one man
could not fill both the offices of bor-

time. The opinion of the attorney gem
eral was sought and he decided that
one man could hold both positions. One
republican official said that party is

party would also put in a man of their
own choice.

DROP INTO LIONS CAGE.
Exciting Experience of French Slack
Wire Performers.

There was an exciting scene ut the
Apollo, the newest of Partisan music
halls, the other night. One of the mum.
bers on the programme was slack wire
dancing by the Rosie sisters over a
cage containing a couple Of lions
which meanwhile were put through
various tricks by Wood, the tanner.
Wood, having just finished his per-
formance, had thrown down his whip
and was leaving the cage when the
wire on which the Rosie sisters were
making a final pirouette snapped. and
the girls fell into the cage, which had
an open top.
The lions, alarmed at the sudden and
unusual apparition, sprang at the girls
One of them was knocked down and
received a severe wound on the right
shoulder, which bled profusely. The
other girl remained lying where she
fell, fortunately alongside the tanner,
who, though whipless, drove back the
beasts while the sisters were got out
Of the cage.
The scene caused wild commotion
among the audience, and many women
tainted.

Deer Trees Man Who Saved It From
Pack Of Coyotes.
Will Schot, holding down claim in
the tall timber a few miles from Butte
Falls, Ore, had an exciting experience
one day last month. He was at work
in the woods some distance from his
cabin when his attention was attracted
by the ferocious barking Of pack Of
coyotes in the canyon below him. The
sounds were unlike the ordinary coyote
cry, and Mr.. Schot, becoming interest
ed, started down the hill to investigate,
and as he stepped around bunch Of
thick brush he came suddenly within
a few yards Of magnificent buck sur
rounded by the pack and making a
valiant though losing fight against the
hungry horde. With hoof and horn he
fought them of, but 1t was a losing
game, and had Mr.. Schot not appeared

held a single white star; Alabama,
Mississippi, Florida, Louisiana, Ten
nessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Texas,
Missouri and Virginia-the beautiful
flags were presented in the beauty
of color such as they carried before
the toll of battle sanctifed them.
The reunion has been one of the
most notable ever held and upon it's
last notes being sounded the soldiers
will spread over the battlefelds they
left in the SOS, will visit the graves
of old comrades and resume the
pleasures of camp life in reminis-
cence.
81 want to show you the tree be-
hind which I was introduced to mus
kerry" a gray-haired wit told an
other upon asking his company to a
nearby region.
The scenes have changed. On cross
roads where the soldiers saw graves
and desolate cottages, there have
sprung up happy villages. The fields
of uncultivated land over which they
tramped YEARLY now bear the prom
ise of early fruitage of grain and cot
ton. The little towns that were so
gray and desolate at the close of the
war between the states are now hap
py little cities with the buzz of a life
that has left the cloud of. war far be-
hind, though in every Virginia ham,
let, at every cross roads, in the heart
of every son and daughter of the Old
Dominion, is carried the sacred mem
cries Of the struggle that the old SOL
diers might think, specifically, was
told of only by the scars and wounds
they bear upon their bodies.
The soldiers will separate, happier
for the reunion, and march over old
fields in boyish fashion for all their
feeling Of age. They have been CIV
en- in Virginia the welcome of their
lives, and go home feeling again that
they played an important part in the
worlds history, better for the honor
that has been paid them, and with a
happy memory for years to come.

Must Hold Up Something.

Down in my State,'' said the late
Senator Vance of North Carolina,
"our courts are particular about
forms and ceremonies. For example,
in court in Asheville a soldier who
had been battered considerably in
the war was brought in as witness.
The Judge told him to hold up his
right hand.
Cant do it sir, said the man.
"Why not?'
Got a shot in that arm, sir
!" Then hold up your left
The man said that his arm had
been amputated.
Then said the judge sternly,
you must hold up your leg. No man
can be sworn, sir, in this court un-
less he holds up something"

There were many things that had
reminded the old soldiers of the
early days Of their enlistment that
seemed barely 47 years in the past.
On the walls of the Jefferson hotel,
in the halls of the Confederates, a
calendar which reproduced the flag
of every state in the confederacy
was hung. At the top of this emblem
was the flag of Georgia of blue with
the seal of the state uponi it in white.
The central flag was the Confed-
crate flag officially endorsed by the
government of the Confederate
States of America. Many of the flags
were not in existence to- 'be copied
from when this Southern company,
which has for; its field the Southern
states, began the search for flags to
reproduce from. But from descrip-
tions the entire list was made out
and the sheet of flags is large enough
for every soldier to find on it the
one under which he enlisted the

blue, surmounted by the crescent;

Lunatic Injuries Another Policeman.

GREENWOOD, June Ed Fooshee,
the lunatic who made his escape
from the county Jail here Thursday
afternoon and sailed forth on the
community with an iron shovel, made
his escape again to-day about 3
o'clock. This time he was armed
with a heavy iron window weight
and saw. AS result of Fooshee's s
rampage Officer M. B. Saunders of
the Greenwood police force bears a
very ugly and painful, though not
serious, wound on the left side of
his head, Fooshee striking him with
the sharp edge of the saw and in
flicting a deep cash about four inches
long and cutting his left ear COM
pletely in two.
It seems that Fooshee did not at:
tempt to attack any one on his jour
ney from the Jail to the square, but
when he neared the union passenger
station he attacked a young colored
girl, Mamie Latimore, beating her
across the back with the flat side of
his saw, and it was in answer to her
cries of Police, police" that Officer
Saunders rushed up to protect the
girl, when Fooshee turned upon him.
There was quite a crowd at the
station and very quickly the lunatic
was overpowered, though he fought
like a demon and it took several peo-
pie to disarm and overpower him.
The escape from the Jail was made
very much in the same manner as on
Thursday and this time Fooshee Sc
cured one 81 TIE window weights
from tha window of the lunatic's s
cell in which he was confined and
broke the lock.
Fooshee is a young white man
about % years old, his home being
at Ninety-Six, this county, and was
brought here from Plum Branch by
his brothers, where they are operat-
ing a saw mill. 1t is said that the
unfortunate young man had spell
of typhoid fever about eight years
ago and ever since then he has been
crazy. He has been in the asylum
twice already. Deputy Sheriff Dukes
will carry the young man to Colum-
bia tonight.

We have heard the report is being
circulated in .Orangeburg county
that many people of Bamberg are
dissatisfied, and would like to 60
back into Barnwell. The report is
untrue, being totally without foun-
dation. We do not know of a single
tax payer in Bamberg county who
would vote to 60 back into Barn
well, but we suppose some Of our
citizens would be glad to see Barn
well come with US. Possibly this is
how the report originated. Our tax
levy is less than the old county, 50
there are no dissatisfied people among
us. In fact. we are all proud of our
county, even if it is a small one.

Skinned up a tree at pace that would

and caught the hem Of his overalls,
ripping them to the pocket.
That was perhaps the proudest buck
deer that ever trod the earth in Oregon.
He had put to fight band Of wolves
and treed a man, and he concluded to
camp there awhile and enjoy his vic
tory. For an hour he guarded his cap
tive, stamping his feet, shaking his
head and making other warlike demon
strations, while Schot remained in the
treetop and wished for his rife. Final
