Burglar He FILLED

TACOMA, Oct. 7.-Mistaking him
for burglar, Harry Starr shot and
almost instantly killed his uncle, Jo-
seph Fly, at o'clock this morning in
the doorway of their tent house in the
center of Bailey street. Discovering
his fatal error Starr became crazed
and when taken to Jail was almost a
raving maniac.
Starr was awakened by a noise and
called but received no response Then
Selling his revolver he jumped up and
waited. Suddenly a form appeared in
the opening of the tent and he fired
point blank.
The form crumpled up on the ground
and Mrs. Starr hastily lighted lamp
and then the mistake was discovered
He died ten minutes later at st. Jo-
seph's hospital. The police think Ely
was walking in his sleep and Mrs
Starr says this often occurred

pect the matter will be taken up at

titled with the organization, aggregat-
ing 40 members and representing a

PAPER

Paper.
Entirely unique, in this county, is
the report just handed in by County
Bee Inspector F. N. Smith. It, IS FOR
the year ending October 1, and is the
first ever handed in to the commits
sioners in this county
According to the report, Mr.. Smi n
examined 1893 stands of bees in the
county last year and found 73 stands
of foul brood Of these, about 80 per
cent are reported cured.
Bee raising is one of the profitable
industries of the county, according to
the county inspector and the foul
brood pest is not bad when handled
properly. More bees would be raised,
in his opinion, if the profit was realized.
"he insects are little trouble and there
are plenty of blossoms in the country

FINDS BURIED TREASURE.
Orangeburg Negro Makes Lucky
Strike.

May jenkins, a colored man living
in the Providence section OF this
county near Four Holes Swamp,
made lucky strike one day last
week, and found buried on his farm
1876 pieces of Mexican money. The
money was found out in the open
field, and was dug up only by
chance.
jenkins was working in the field,
and one of his children was out
there with him. The child was play
ing near stump in the field, and
digging in the dirt when piece OF
money was turned up. The child
showed the coin to Jenkins, who
thought that there possibly was more
money there and began to dig about
the stump. In the search which fol-
lowed, 1S5 pieces of money were un-
earthed The money was not in any
vessel, but loose in the dirt.
The negro carried the money to
Parlers and exhibited it, and upon
examination it was found to bear
dates over 100 years back. The
coins were of the Mexican one dollar
piece variety, and 50 far no explana-
ton has been offered for the presence
of the money.-Orangeburg Evening
