Isaac Davis, employed by Mr.. A. M
Broughton at his retail grocery on
Main street, is now on trial for COM
hitting a very serious assault upon
Arthur Burgess, a porter employed
by Mr. Broughton, who reported Da-
Wis for stealing.
Burgess happened to look under
the seat Of the delivery wagon, and
found hidden there a dozen lemons
and another package. This he report
ed to Mr. Broughton, but in the
meantime the packages had been re-
moved, and when Mr.. Broughton ac-
cused Davis of the theft, he became
angry, and accused Burgess Of lying
on him. He cursed the boy outrage
ously, and then took out pocket
knife and inflicted wound measur-
ing over - inches, from the thigh to
the abdomen, being a deep and Sc
rious wound, and nearly severing the
large artery in the leg.
Davis was arrested and required to
give bond for his appearance at trial
today. The trial has not yet been
had. Burgess was taken to the hos
pital, where his wound was dressed.
He is still in a very serious condition.

PHELPS STORE ROBBED
The Thief was After Money Only and
Secured But Sixty Cents.

Phelps grocery store was entered
Saturday night and the cash register
was rifed of the small change left in
it when the store was closed for the
night. The whole amount taken was
60 cents, and four bread tickets. The
thief was after money only and so far
as can be ascertained he stole no
goods at all.
He gained entrance to the store
through the trap door on the roof,
reaching the roof by way Of the Of
fees on the second floor of China's
Drug Store, then to the roof Of Chi
mas wareroom and then, by ladder,
to the roof of the building. He had
provided himself with a rope which
he used to lower himself from the
trap door to the second floor of the
store The stairway leading to the
offices in the China building is not
closed at night and to one familiar
with the premises the rest was easy.
A negro boy was arrested on suspic-
ion Sunday. but as there was no proof
against him he was released.

DECLINES RICHMOND CALL.

He Will Remain in Sumter.

Rev. H. III. COvIngton announces Inat
He Will Remain in Sumter.
Rev. II. H. Covington, rector of
the Church of the Holy Comforter,
announced at the morning service to-
day that he had, after serious and
mature consideration OF the call re-
Gently received from the Monumental
Church, of Richmond, Va, decided to
decline the call and remain in Sum-
ter. The announcement gave great
satisfaction to Mr. Covington's par
is1lioners, all OF whom are loath to
consider his leaving Sumter.
From a financial point Of view Mr..
Covington has made sacrifice in
declining the call to Richmond, for
the Monumental Church is one OF
the largest and most important Epis-
copal churches in the south. Mr..
Covington is attached to Sumter, and,
besides, he feels that his work here
has claims on him that he cannot lg-
more, however fattering the calls he
may receive from other and larger
fields.

A letter was received today from
DR.. Jas. n. Brawner, physician in
charge Of the Atlanta Pasteur Insti-
tute, containing the following infor-
nation relative to Mr.. Hutcherson's
children, who were taken there for
treatment for hydrophobia:
.Mr. Hutcherson and his two chill
dren arrived safely last evening
"wednesday and the younger child
was put under treatment immediate
ly. I do not think the elder one is in
any danger, as the virus has never
been found in the saliva Of rabid
animal earlier than ten days before
symptoms develop. Nearly one
month elapsed before this dog showed
symptoms and for this reason l think
we are safe in advising that the treat
ment is not necessary. The younger
child, however, is in considerable dan
ger, the wound being on the face, and
We will immunize her as rapidly as
we can"
