ing some person or persons attacked
Mr.. Warren Hart as he went out to
feed his stock, crushing his head to
jelly, and killing him instantly. They
then went to the kitchen, where Mrs:
Hart was preparing breakfast, and
attacked her with an axe, leaving her
for dead. She was found lying on
the floor with fork in her hand and
her breakfast burned to a crisp. She
is now barely alive.
The object Of the plot to murder is
supposed to have been for robbery,
as they had about 81 900 in the house,
which the murderers failed to find.
The report reaches here that two ne
groes have been arrested, and that it
is expected they are the assassins. A
lynching is feared at any moment.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hart were about IS
years old, and were highly respected
citizens. The people of the section
are wrought up to a frenzy.

tween Governor Ansel, Attorney Cen
eral Lyon and State Treasurer Jen-
nings, the books and records of the
old State dispensary, a wagon load OF
them, were transferred to the vaults
of the State treasurer's office, in or.

of Judge Pritchard or any of his re-
ceivers. This move followed the no
tifcation from the federal court to
the several banks in the State holding
deposits of the dispensary fund which
Judge Pritchard has enjoined.

have against the grafters get out OF

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT IN OHIO.
Nearly Two Hundred Children Lose
Their Lives in Burning Building.

Between 160 and ITO children,
ranging in ages from six to fifteen,
and two teachers lost their lives in a
burning school building in Cleveland,
Ohio, on Wednesday. The fire start
ed from the over-heated furnace in
the basement and cut off the means
of exit from the building. In the
terrible panic that ensued many chill
dren were trampled to death. When
the alarm sounded the teachers did
their best to get the children out,
but the doors which opened inward
were soon blockaded by pile OF
struggling humanity.
There were 325 children in the
three-story building when the fire
came, and only 80 are known to have
escaped unhurt, many of those who
saved their lives being badly burned
or otherwise injured.
At midnight Wednesday there were
1O8 bodies in the morgue that had
been identified and 81 more who were
burned beyond recognition, and 13
other children were still missing.

GARY is u. s. SENATOR.
Elected Last Friday, After q Contest
Lasting Three Days.

Frank B. Gary, member of the
house of representatives and ex-
speaker of that body, was last Fri
day elected as United States Senator,
for the unexpired term of A. c. Lat
inner. The general assembly met
Tuesday night and number of ball
lots were taken each day until the
election of Mr.. Gary. A number Of
men were voted for at various times
during the balloting, but Gary al
ways led and at no stage did any cam
didate develop considerable strength.
At first only five candidates were
nominated: Gary, Walker, Jones,
Mauldin, and Coker, but later Col. r.
D. Lee, of Sumter; Lieutenant Gov
ernor T. G. Mcleod, of Lee; Repre-
sentative Nash of Spartanburg; Com
gresham Lever; Associate Justice
Ira B. Jones; and John G. Sheppard,
of Edgefeld, were voted for. Some
withdrew their names, and on the fi-
nal ballot the vote stood: Gary 79;
Mcleod 80; Walker "a; Mauldin II;
Willie Jones 2; Ira B. Jones A.. Coker
1; McKeithan 1. Necessary to elect 78,
so it will be seen that Mr.. Gary got
one majority. On the last ballot
Representatives Garris and Miley
voted for Gary, and Senator Black
voted for Mcleod. Mr.. Black had
voted for Mauldin, but saw no chance
of his election and changed his vote
to Mcleod on the few last ballots.
Messrs. Garris and Miley voted for
Gary all the way through. Seventeen
ballots were taken before the dead
lock was broken.

Black Hand In YbOr City.

Grana, prominent physician, his
brother-in-law, John Orrofino, and a
friend, Alfonso Mule, were shot from
ambush in Ybor City by four men,
who had secreted themselves in the
grounds of St. Joseph's convent.
Mule will probably die, the others be-
ing only slightly wounded. All are
Italians and the shooting is believed
to be the result of a black hand plot:
Five thousand dollars was demanded
from DR.. Grana several days ago and
he had also been notified to leave
the city. Demands have also been
made on other prominent Italians and
much alarm has prevailed in the
Italian colony. The police today ar
rested five Italians on suspicion.

A Mothers Sacrifice.

SPARrANBURG. March 9.-An eye
witness of the tragedy at Apalachee
mill Sunday afternoon when three
women were drowned who arrived in
Spartanburg tonight recounts a re-
markable incident in connection with
the.occurrence. He says Mrs. Keller,
who was one of the women drown
ed, had with her in the boat her two
little children. The older was asleep
in the bottom Of the craft, while she
held the infant in her arms and when
she went into the water carried it
with her. She sank the second time
with the babe held to her breast but
when, she came to the surface for the
last time, with superhuman effort
she raised the little one above her
head and cast it in the boat. Its life
was saved by the mother who went
down and was lost.

Cotton Fire In Spartanburg.

SPARTANBURG, March 6.-The
Spartanburg fire department has had
a days battle with flames that are
slowly consuming hundreds of bales
of cotton stored in ware house No. ]
at the Spartan mill in this city and
tonight the fire, though under con-
troll, is still burning in a hundred or
more bales that have been rolled into
the open. An official of the mill ex:
pressed the fear tonight that 4Oo
bales may be practically lost, in which
case the damage will exceed $40. 600.
He says the cotton is, however, fair
ly we'll insured.
The fire was discovered this morn
ing about 10 o'clock burning in the
centre of the warehouse which con.
tanned more than thousand bales;
The fire department responded
promptly and found the only practical
way of reaching the fire was through
an opening made in the roof Of the
building. Opening was made at sever.
al places and streams of water poured
into the smoking column. The smoke
that issued from the building was
terrible in its effect upon the iremen
and Chief Kennedy, with two Of his
men, James Ellison and John Ross.
were overcome and had to be carried
from the scene. The chief and Ross
recovered sufficiently to resume the
fight, but Ellison is at his home under
the care of a physician tonight. Just
a year ago the Spartan mill village
was destroyed by fire, entailing a loss
exceeding $50, 900.

DECLINED TO ACCEPT PAY.
Several Members of legislature Re-
fuse Expense Honey.

COLUMBIA, March The constitu-
ton provides that members Of the
general assembly shall receive com
pensation for not more than forty
days of the regular annual session.
This period had elapsed before the
adjourned session to elect a Senator
was held, and the members could not
therefore receive their usual per diem
of 81. However, it was held that it
was legal to pay the actual travelling
and living expenses of the members,
as this was interpreted not to be the
same as compensation, and the gen.
eral assembly fixed a level per diem
expense of two dollars in addition to
the mileage.
However some of the members did
not agree with this Interpretation OF
the law, and held that they could not
legally receive even expense money
for the adjourned session. Senator
Rogers endorsed his pay certificate to
the State Treasurer with the inscrip-
ton, this money belongs to the
State, not to me-" Senator Weston
also endorsed his certificate to the
State Treasurer.
Messrs. Croft, Wingard, Werner,
Carey, Cothran, and McColl declined
to accept their certificates at all.
The general assembly appropriated
$1,000, if so much be necessary to
pay the expenses Of the adjourned
session, but that much will not be
necessary, The expense will be
about $500 or $500 per day for the
five days. Of course there is no
question that the officials of the house,
such as clerks and porters, are en-
titled to pay for their work.
If an extra session is called the
members will receive per diem of 81
per day and there is no limit to an
extra session.

Dispensary Matters.

Happenings in dispensary circle
the last week have been interesting
After Judge Pritchard decided tt
take jurisdiction in the matter of tn
funds in the hands of the commission
to wind up the dispensary, Attorne,
General Lyon asked the State Su
preme Court to order the payment
to him of thesis, 900 appropriated by
the legislature to prosecute those
charged with conspiracy to defraut
the State. This matter was argued
before thecourt last Thursday, but
up to this writing no decision ha!
been rendered.
In his decision Judge Pritchare
stated that the application was un
necessary, as he would have ordered
the payment of the money had he
been asked, and said he considered
the action of the attorney general a:
an unwarranted attempt to create
conflict between the Federal and State
courts.
In the meantime the legislature
had passed a resolution requiring the
State treasurerto loan the SIS, 900 tt
the legal department for the pro
secutions mentioned, and Governor
Ansel sent a special message to the
general assembly urging that body tt
enact legislation which would meet
the possible conflict Of jurisdiction
between Judge Pritchard and the
State Supreme Court. However, the
Senate declined to Ntake any action
and no bill was passed.
JudgeP Pritchard has issued an orde1
releasing $155, 900 of the money II
the hands of the commission, in ordel
that it may be paid over to the
creditors whose accounts have beer
adjusted and ordered paid by the
commission. He also appointed the
five members of the commission a.
receivers of the dispensary fund, but
all except Messrs. B. F. Arthur anc
C.. K. Henderson declined to serve, a.
they do not recognize his authority
to take control.
