EXPLOSION KILLS THREE
Man Places Twenty Pounds Dynamite
Under Cooking Stove Which EI.
pIodcs While Eating Dinner
FIRE FOLLOWS AND HOUSE DESTROYED

The people all over the county
we're shocked to learn of the sad dis
aster which occurred near Springer
ton, February IS, about noon.
From reports as best We could learn
that Charles Title, young and
prominent farmer, placed about
twenty pounds of dynamite under
the cooking stove while Mrs. Sarah
Title was preparing the noon meal.
While eating dinner the dynamite
exploded instantly killing Rev.
John D. Title, Charles little, Mrs.
Charles Title and injurlng two
children, a little girl and little
boy, who are reported some better,
and hopes are entertained for their
recovery.
The older child, a boy of six
years, is the only survivor who can
tell anything about the accident, and
all he can say is that the house was
blown down.
The house, a one story frame, was
completely demolished parts of it
being blown hundreds Of feet away.
Flames consumed all that remained.
Fatalism seems to have pursued
the Title family, as Cleveland
little, younger son of Rev. Title,
was accidentally killed last May
while stretching barbed wire fence.
The widow of Rev. Title is in a
very precarous condition as result
of the shock caused by the death Of
her husband and stepson, and 1t is
feared that she may loose her reason.
The bodies of the four who were
in the house at the time OF the ex-
plosion were blown in different di-
recu.ons and all were found several
feet away from the house, the bodies
of the two men were blown through
the east end of the building, while
the woman was blown through the
south side. The little girl was
found lying Cd the body of her moth
err. while the little boy was lying
across that of his father. Most of
the clothing was blown from the
bodies of the victims. The mirror
of the dresser was found intact and
its frame on the floor of the house.

Everybody Should Vote.

The approaching election for the
choice of man to fill the unexpired
term of the late, Hon. j. M. Epting,
again brings the people of Lexington
county face to face with the exercise
of one of the most important privi-
leges of American citizens-the choos-
ing of a representative in our legisla-
tive body. This is not only a privi-
lege, but duty, and if man does
not cast his vote conscientiously and
free willed, he is not model citizen.
Nowadays one can constantly hear
of complaints against the govern
ment, but if you will trace such talk
to its source, you will find that it
came from man who doesn't vote
or from one of our many "chronic
grumblers." It is useless to try to
satisfy such people-it can't be done.
There is no doubt but that there is
corruption in our politics, but hasn't
it always been SO? Indeed, it has,;
and all this talk that politics is too
corrupt for good people to have any
thing to do with is simply "tom-
myrot." Today is the time for our
goods, our best people to rise as one
man and knock out some of the rot
tenness of our politics. There is no
good in remaining at home on elec-
Ion day, and then, when. everything
is over, come out with your cumber-
some complaints.
Under our form of government the
majority rules, and for this very
reason it is all the more important
that you should cast your ballot for
the best man in the race. If, per-
chance, the choice of the majority be
not for the best. man, the thing to do
is to go to the next election and keep
on going till good men are landed.
After the election on September
10th we hope the total vote cast will
show US that every qualified Voter in
the county has done his duty. REQ.
