A powder explosion at the Two
lick mine just north Of Mt. Glare at
6:3O o'clock Wednesday morning re-
suited in the death of tire miners
employed there by the Clarskburg
Fuel Company. namely, Deshla
Barets, Nicolo Plenorltes and Frank
'Goff, and did slight damage to the
powder house.
The explosion occurred in a house
used for the distribution of powder
to the miners and located near the
mouth of the mine. As is the Gus
tom the three men went into the dis
trlbuting house to fill their regula-
tion 5-gallon cans. before going into
the mine, and were in the building,
when the explosion took place. They
all rushed from the building and
rama considerable distance. Con
ran home, a distance Of three
hundred yards. while the two for
eigners ran about one hundred feet.
All fell exhausted and within 1--WE
minutes they were all dead.
Their clothing had been burned
entirely off and their bodies were
horribly burned. Internal burns
were also received and they
succumbed in greatest agony
Before Cor died he told hrs moth
er that one Of the foreigners ignited
the powder causing the explosion. A
pipe was found near the powder
house and It's appearance indicated
that one Of, the victims had had 1t in
his mouth, the stem being burned
but not the mouthpiece. The sup
position is that fire fell from the
pipe as they were filing their CANS
and ignited the powder.
The building was not badly
wrecked, the gable roof only being
blown away, separating at the comb
and the. sides going either way
thirty feet. The building did not
contain large Quantity Of powder
and the loss on building and powder
is estimated at s25.
Soon after the explosion Super
intendent John o. Brooks OF the
Fuel company with secret service Of
ficials of the company and Coroner
W. P. Camp went to the scene. The
coroner investigated the details Of
the explosion so far as was possible
and in a most careful manner, de-
Gliding that an inquest was not
necessary.
The bodies Of the foreigners were
brought here and VIII be buried at
this point. COTS body is at his
mothers home and will be taken to
Elk Garden for interment.
Young Goff's father was killed In
a mine explosion at Berryburg, Bar
bour county, few years ago. He
is survived by his mother and FIVE
brothers and sisters, namely, John
Edward, Hazel, vira and Mary Con.
The family formerly resided at Elk
Garden.

The good, brave and noble Chris
tan women of Columbia through the
.Woman's Christian Temperance I'm
ion, presented the following petition
to the committee of arrangements OF
the Confederate reunion:
stGentlemen: We, the Woman's
Christian Temperance union OF Co
lumbia, and others, in behalf OF our:
selves and the mothers, wives and
sisters of the old Confederate soldiers,
respectfully request and earnestly Pc
tition your discountenance of the GIFT
to the soldiers Of any intoxicating
liquors. Especially do we request
that your committee, if suggested oy
anyone, or otherwise, do not acqul-
esce in the act of furnishing 1t to
them"
+ It is indeed refreshing to note that
the wishes Of these dear women will
be adhered to. The all too common
practice of furnishing whiskey, beer
and other intoxicants, free of charge,
to the old soldiers during the reun'
ions in the past, have proven so dis
graceful and indecent that it should
never be INDUCED in again. Indeed
there is nothing high and noble in 1t;
on the other hand, it is degrading, de-
moralizing and indecent.

The tragedy in the suburbs OF Co.
lumbia Thursday morning is but an
other evidence that Columbia needs
better police protection. 1t seems
to us that the proper authori-
ties should see to it that the constant
firing of pistols in that portion of Co.
lumbia where the recent tragedies
have taken place should be stopped.
It is such a common practice" in
that section, we r told, that resi-
dents never pay any attention to pis-
toll shots, the consequence being that
when a man is shot down he is not
found until some passerby discovers
his dead body on the street Or by the
wayside. We firmly believe that the
conditions in Columbia will be i'm
proved 80 that it will not be neces-
sary for those going to and from their
work to carry pistols in their hands
for protection. Crimes of this kind
seem to be on the increase in Colum-
bia and, indeed, it is time for some
thing to be done.

That the people of Lexington county
love her territory dearly was proven
at the citizens meeting held at
Sandy Run last Wednesday. The
meeting was called to order by that
prince of good men, DIR. W. T. Brook
er, of Swansea, who stated the pur-
pose of the.meeting. Mr.. Nathan B..
Wannamaker, one of the most inHu-
entail and prosperous citizens of the
county, was unanimously elected
chairman. There were several pro-
moters from St. Matthews, who came
to push the i~nterestof the new county,
and Orangeburg was also represented.
Mr.. J. s. Wannamaker, in a speech
of two hours, spoke in favor OF the
proposed new county, severely ar
raigning the officials of Orangeburg
county, charging them with squander-
ing the peoples money; that the
County Commissioners were too ex-
travagant; that too much was spent
on roads and bridges. Mr.. Wanna
maker seldom referred to Lexington
or it's officials. Orangeburg's affairs
did not interest these sturdy Lexing-
tonians at all; they were interested
in Lexington county, and evidently
the speech of Mr.. Wannamaker fell
on deaf ears, so far as changing the
minds of these citizens were concern
ed. A full account of the meeting
will be found elsewhere.
