Mann Couldn't Vote for Tlllman.

Columbia, Jan. %. - Representative
Coke d. Mann, who is also Methodist
minister, refused to vote to-day to con-
firm the reelection of United States
Senator Tillman, giving these sensa.
tional reasons:
81 wish to state my reasons for not
voting for the Hon. Benjamin r Till
man to succeed himself in the United
States Senate:
"First. He made worthless and mali
cious attack upon the ministry of South
Carolina, charging them with being in
league with the ex-barkeepers of the
State, with Col. James A. Hoyt as their
standard bearer, to defeat and destroy
the dispensary law in South Carolina.
This, he knew, was false and an outrage
on common decency.
Second. Before 1 could vote for him
| should have to know how much money
he returned to Mr.. Hubbel as rebates al
lHNSd the State of South Carolina.
SNN Nend that, as Governor, he was hand.
IVY the money of the State and he had
no right to return the money to the
liquor house any more than the present
Board of Directors has the right to APP
propriate to their own use or to such
other purposes as they might see fit"
On motion of Representative Richards
the House, by large majority, voted t.
expnpge Representative Mann's state
ment from the record.

Big Scare at TownviIIe.

The people of Townville are having a
great scare about wild bear or some
other kind of beast roaming at large in
the community. Several people claim
to have seen the animal, and others have
seen strange tracks in the public roads
and fields. Many people are convinced
that there is some kind of strange and
dangerous animal roaming around in the
neighborhood and some dare not leave
their homes ut night. 1t is an awful
time for timid folks around Townville.
Nobody has been killed, but one negro
has had very narrow escape.
Berry Farmer has negro working for
him by the name of Cato Pickens. The
other morning, just about daylight, the
negro went to his employers house to
get Instructions about his days work.
Mr.. Bell heard him in the yard, and,
thinking 1t was the bear, opened the
door just little ways, stuck his shotgun
through the crack and banged away, and
shot off part of the negro's foot. Not
withstanding the wound was in the foot
1t is said the negro is not very badly hurt
'anA will soon be all right. And in the
meantime the people still think there Is
bear In the neighborhood and are
afraid of strange noises that they hear at
night,
