Night Riders Attack Soldiers.

Memphis, Tenn, November 2S.-
A dispatch from Union City to the
News-Scimitar late to-day confirms
reports of an attack on detail Of
militiamen by band Of men, pre-
sumably night riders, at the Gleason
sawmill, near Samburg, last night.
According to the dispatch one Of the
soldiers was slightly wounded and
so shots were exchanged between the
military and the attacking party.
The attack followed the firing on
three men by soldiers who discovered
the men in the mill yard. The in
truders were challenged and refused
to halt. Spasmodic firing continued
for several hours and was followed
at midnight by a fusillade. When the
fire was returned by the soldiers the
band, which was composed Of about
80 men, disappeared. With the ar
rival of reinforcements from Camp
Rankin, a search was made, but none
of the band could be located.
The placing of guards at the mill
was because of threats that the mill
would be burned.

MART GARY's DESK SOLD.
Will be Presented to Associate Jus.
tice Gary.

Saluda, November 26.-The last
chapter in the history of the case Of
w. NJ. Mayes vs.. B. B. Evans, being
q distress proceeding for Office rent
and begun more than year ago, was
had to-day when the distrained ar
ticles, including law books, a Krag-
Jorgensen rifle and the old Office desk
of Gen. M. w. Gary were sold by the
sheriff at public auction. This had
been in some respects a most inter-
esting suit and the judgment roll,
made up of various and sundry Or
ders passed by the circuit court judg-
es, the chief justice and the su-
preme court, is now a voluminous
one.
The Krag-Jorgensen rifle, it is said,
is government property and there
may be interesting developments in
regard to it yet.
E. w. Able, Esq, attorney for
Mayes, bid it off at SIS. It is hinted
that very prominent official in the
military department of this State may
be called upon to make some explana-
tion in regard to this gun.
Mr.. C. ]. Ramage of this bar bid
in the Office desk of Gen. Gary and
will at once ship it to Associate JUS
tice Gary with his compliments. This
is the desk that Gen. Gary used for
years in the law Office at Edgefeld
and the one on which much interest
ing political history of South Caro-
lima along in the 7O's was no doubt
written.

Spartanburg Store Robbed.

Spartanburg, November 26.-The
clothing store Of the Floyd L. Lilies
company on west Main street was en-
tered by professional burglars here
some time Wednesday night and rob-
bed of goods amounting in value to
several hundred dollars. They en-
tered a door at the rear of the build
ing by removing the lock by the use
of brace and bit and lifting from
it's hinges a second door encountered.
To those who entered the store
early to-day the stock of clothing
and furnishing goods looked as
though a cyclone had passed through
the building. The police say wagon
would have been necessary to carry
away the goods stolen. There ap-
pears to be absolutely no clue for the
authorities to work. on. Mr.. Lilies,
manager of the store, is absent, be-
ing in New York.

EXPENSES Of Election.

Practically all of the bills for the
November general election have been
filed with Controller General Jones,
only one or two counties being out.
It is thought that there will be a
small remainder after all of the bills
are paid, but including the newspa-
per advertising, the general election
cost about S24 900.
There was an appropriation of $4,-
600 for advertising the election no
tices in the newspapers and the gen
eral assembly appropriated s20,400
for the election, but out of this fund
comes also expenses of special elec-
tions held in counties occasionally to
fill vacancies.
The federal messengers are also
paid railroad fare each way and IS
for bringing the results in to the
State board of canvassers. This
amounted to about $500. There are
no messengers for the State returns,
these being sent in to the governor
and the secretary of State by mail
and by express.

Three Drowned in Surf.

Jacksonville, Fla, November 28.--'
News reached here to-day from Da-
MIA, small station on the east coast
of Florida, of the accidental drown
ing of Mr.. Dyke and his son and
daughter, which occurred while they
were in surf bathing Friday after
noon.
From what could be learned it
seems that young Dyke ventured out
too far in the surf and called for help;
that his sister swan to him and in
trying to save him went under the
rolling water. The father seeing his
children struggling for life, swan to-
wards them and the three went down
to death together. Mr.. Dyke was
prominent in this section Of the State.

ZACH McGHEE'S BOOK.
Several Characters in 1.-THE Dark Cor
ner' Live in Bamberg. County.

Many people in Bamberg are antic-
ipating the appearance of Mr.. Zach
McGhee's book, "The Dark Corner"
which is scheduled to appear in about
ten days. Mr.. McGhee formerly
taught in the public schools of Bam-
berg county and it is said that there
are several characters in his book
which are taken from some types in
this part of the State, and indeed, in
this very county itself. The author
is well known here, and here are
many former school boys grown to
manhood who will remember him.
1t is we'll known that Mr.. McGhee has
a distinctive literary ability, and that
his long connection with the public
schools in the State peculiarly fit
him to write intelligently upon the
subject of education, either in the
form of a novel, or of mere newspa-
per style.
'The Dark Corner" is founded up
on the educational perplexities and
complexities of the county school
teacher, and from all reports the sale
of Mr.. McGhee's work will be some
thing bordering upon the phenome-
nal. The Grafton Press, New YORK,
where the book is being printed, have
been rushing their presses for some
time, it is said, in order to fill the Or
der. Already, in many parts of the
State, there have been numbers of
calls for the first book which comes
from the presses. The price is one
dollar, and Mr.. McGhee has put some
of the hearty good cheer and gift
spirit in some of his characters to
make of it a good Christmas remem-
brance.
While in this section Mr.. McGhee
gathered much of the folk lore which
will be readily recognized in ssThe
Dark Corner" by people in this town
and country. 1t is said to be high
class work, and judging from the
favorable criticism it has received
North and South, it is book which
will readily receive attention.

Greensboro, Ala, November 25.-
Sheriff Gewin has captured three ne
groes, charged with the murder Of
former Sheriff R. w. Drake, near
Laneville, Ala, last night. One Of
the negroes confessed and implicated
the other two. He says that he held
the light while the other two negroes
killed Mr.. Drake by knocking him in
the head with an axe; that they then
saturated his clothing and the bed
clothing with oil and set fire to them.
Steps have been taken to call a
special term of Court to try the ne
groes, because of the feeling, which
is running very high.

The Canny Scot.

TO illustrate the canniness of the
Scot the following tale is told: A
merchant and farmer were discuss
ing political economy in a railroad
carriage After while the merchant
filled his pipe, lit it, and settled back
for a comfortable smoke. The far
mer took his pipe from his pocket,
and, after gazing longingly at its
empty bowl, asked his companion for
a match. The merchant selected one
from a large boxful and handed it
over.
Said the farmer: "I am afraid I've
come away wi'out my baccy pouch"
"WeI," said the merchant, hold
ing out his hand, "then yell no be
in need of that match"
