Judge Gage Talks OF Crime.

Anderson, May 23.-The summer
term of the Court of General Ses-
sions convened here Monday morn
ing. Judge Gage is presiding. In
his charge to the grand jury Judge
Gage said that the State of South
Carolina is yet unoivilized as far the
taking of human life is concerned.
He has not been here for three years
and since his last trip Anderson
county has had fifty-seven indict-
ments of homicide. Greenville has
had sixty indictments in the same
length of time. Judge Gage says he
visited county in Scotland last
summer which had the same popula-
tion as Anderson, and an officer there
told him that they had not had a
homicide indictment in thirty years.
Judge Gage made a strong charge,
and his words are bound to have
great effect here.

the facts in case more accurately
and correctly than twelve learned
judges could do. The best juror is
not always the best educated man,
but the man with the least bias and
least prejudice, and is honest and
seeks only the truth in any case.
We think, however, that it would be
better to amend the bill aforesaid,
to require ninety per cent of the
qualified electors to be put in the
jury box-ten per cent left out wouln
certainly include all of the qualified
electors to whom there is any real
and valid objection. - Edgefield

Died to Stay Dead.

Senator Cole l.. Blease, of Newberry,
is out in an interview denouncing the
Carey Cothran law as a failure and de-
claring for the re-enactment of tho State
dlspensary system by the next Legisla-
ture. Mr.. Blease is an able, active and
popular man, but not able enough, ac-
tive enough or popular enough to secure
the re-enaotment of the State dispensary
system in South Carolina. Furthermore,
no other man is. The State liquor dis
pens7ry is entirely, definitely, hopelessly,
completely and conclusively dead. 1t
will never at any time or under any Cir
oumstances be re-established. There
are just few things that are certain in
politics, and this is one of them.-Spar.

A Good Bill IL Amended.

There is now pending before the
General Assembly of the State of
South Carolina bill introduced by
Mr.. Werner, of Oconee, and brought
over from the last session, and will
be disposed of at the next session of
that body, relative to the listing of
jurors. AS the law now exists in
this State, the jury commissioners
are required to put in the jury box
at least one-third of the qualified
electors of the county. They may
put them all in if they 80 choose, but
cannot put less than one third. The
present system does not seem to be
satisfactory, as the bill above referred
to has been introduced to amend the
present law, and to require the Jury
commissioners to put in the box all
of the qualified electors of the county.
The purpose OF the bill is good, and
if enacted into a law would certainly
distribute the jurors more evenly
over the county, and would certainly
correct one of the evils which it is
alleged it is aimed at, that is, to pre-
vent the selection of the same Jurors
from year to year. 1t frequently
occurs that a man living in a remote
section of a county, with very little
education, makes better juror than
one who is well educated, for the
reason that he is more likely to try
the case on the law and facts than
the man who has heard it discussed
and read about it, and unconsciously
formed an opinion. The most learned
judges have frequently announced
the theory that twelve jurors, selected
from the people at large, could find

Ciaxton, Ga, May 23.-Two ne

two daughters of Padgett.
Fifteen persons early Tuesday

gett, a negro whom they suspected
of harboring another negro who had
criminally assaulted Mrs. Moore, and
demanded to be allowed to search
the house. Permission was given,
but when within thirty feet of the
house those inside the building
opened fire on the posse, instantly
killing John Hare and seriously
wounding Barlow Pearson, James
Daniel and DR.. J. i. Kennedy. The
posse then returned the fire, killing
Padgett and one of his daughters,
aged ten, and wounding two other
girls, aged six and thirteen respec-
lively, and two of Padgett's sons,
aged twenty and twenty-five.
The posse then retired for rein
forcements. The news spread rap
idly and by 10 o'clock five hundred
armed men were on the scene and
started in pursuit of the negroes,
who had escaped. One of them was
captured and taken before Mrs.
Moore, but she failed to identify
him. The negro, however, was

taken by about seventy-fve, who
took tho prisoners from them. The
woman was told to run, and as she
did so was riddled with bullets, her
son being shot to pieces where he
stood.
The negro who assaulted Mrs.

is reported that he is surrounded in
negro house, and that in all proba-
bility he has been killed.

took all the prisoners from the Jail
at Reidsville and left with them to
elude the mob, who, it was reported,
would attack the Jail that night.
Great excitement prevails and it is
feared that other trouble will occur.

Where the Duke Was.

 "As I am going to make the statue of your grace, can you not tell me what you were doing before, say, the battle of Salamanca? Were you not glloping about the fields cheering on your men to deeds of valor by word and action?''
 "Bah!' said the duke, in evident scorn. "If you really want to model me as I was on the morning of Sala- manaca, then do me crawling along a ditch with telescope in my hand."- Titbits.
