LINEMaN MET HORRIBLE DEATH
Charles Lundy Electrocuted While at
Work in Columbia.

Columbia, June 11.-Chas. Lundy
a lineman employed by the city, was
electrocuted to-day while at work
on Main street near Elmwood avenue
Mr.. Lundy was engaged in string
ing wires for the police alarm system
made necessary by the extension OF
the city limits.
In the course of his work, Lundy
went up one of the Southern Bell
telephone poles, one block north OF
Main street and soon after he climbed
the pole he came in contact with a
live wire.
1t is thought he stepped on the
telephone cable and received a shock
by reason of the fact that several
hundred yards North of this point the
telephone wire into residence had
fallen across the power wire OF the
street railway company and the IN
sulation having worn off the full volt
age of the power wire was communl-
Gated to the telephone wire.
Lundy fell across the telephone
wires and his body lodged there. 1t
was fifteen or twenty minutes before
his body could be taken down and 1t
was necessary for the whole street
car and power system to shut down
in order to cut off the current.

3 The statement Of Dispensary Audi
tor West that prohibition sentiment
! in this State is waning may be denied
z by some, but none can doubt the sin
scerity of his views. Mr.. West is q
prohibitionist himself, and is not an
advocate of the dispensary or any
other plan of selling. liquor. He
travels all over the State and comes
in contact with the people who talk,
and it seems that he certainly ought
to know what he is talking about.
However, his statement is interesting,
coming as it does on the eve of the
campaign, and we shall expect a
change of front on the part of some
candidates.

Young White Man Killed.

Dillon, June 13.-Pate Walker,
young white man, was shot and in
stantly killed last night by Daniel
Hamer. The shooting occurred about
II o'clock at the home of Jim Creech,
a tenant on the land Of Marion Wig
gins, just across the little Pee Dee
and two miles East of Dillon. 1t
seems that the two men were spend
ing the evening at Creech's house and
that hot words passed, followed by
blows. Then Walker was shot. He
fell in the yard near the piazza. The
body was left where it fell until 4
O'Clock this evening when the coroner
summoned a jury and held the in
quest. The verdict of the jury is
not yet known.
The ball struck Walker in the
breast near the heart and passed en-
tirely through the body.
