Saw His Leg Cut OF.

At st. Louis, Mo-, on Thursday PIN
ioned under wreckage caused by q
rear-end collision on the Burlington
Road, and with steam from q broken
engine pipe pouring into his face,
Horace A. McKittrick, stock broker
of Brookfeld, No., directed the am
putation of his leg and furnished a
dull jack knife with which the work
was done. The rough operation was
performed by the Rev. R. c. Allen,
of Grove City, Pa, but it failed of it's
purpose, McKittrick dying later at a
hospital.
Four others were injured in the
wreck. Several of the passengers
were in the caboose of the freight
train and escaped serious injury, but
McKittrick was caught between the
broken timbers under the passenger
locomotive.

young Man Kills himself.

Vernon Stancil, the third son of Mr..
G. w. Stancil, of Sumter, shot him
self through the head Saturday night
about II o'clock. He was found un-
conscious few minutes after the shot
was fred and taken to the Mood
Osteen Infirmary, where he died soon
afterwards. The ball entered the
temple in front of the ear and came
out on the other side of the head at
about the same place.
The young man, vino was 10 years
of age, was bright and of a very
pleasing address. No reasons for the
act can be positively determined, and
they will probably remain a mystery.
It is said that he had been drinking
lately, but some of his nearest friends
deny that he was addicted to the hab-
it. It is known that he had lately
applied to several places for work
without success, but this would not
account for the suicide, as he had a
home and number of friends who
would have helped him.

the medal.
Prof. Henry P. stuckey, of Win
throp College. was next introduced.
He spoke on the subject Of "Agricul-
ture and School Gardens for the Pub
lie schools.' After briefly discuss
ing our dependence upon, and rela-
tions towards, plants, animals and the
soil, he discussed at more length the
value of having elementary agricul-
ture taught in our schools and school

striven for six long months for the
welfare, uplifting and common good

"Unity." He appealed to the people
to stand united, for In unity is strength,
in disunion is weakness. Said he:
"Allis well in the school, church and
community as long as all stand hand
finland united" After thanking the
people for the many hospitalities
shown him during his stay among
them, he announced that the pleas

REMINISCENCE OF JENNIE LIND,
 THE GREAT SINGER.

REMINISCENCE OF JENNIE LIND, THE GREAT SINGER.
 Fond "reminiscences by Mrs Etha Brown of Jennie Lind, the acknow- ledged, greatest, most charming, sweetest singer then living. Her voice charmed all who heard her sing in ev- cry hemisphere. During one of her visits to New York City in 1847 she gratuitously sang for some school children. The little girls on this occa- ioson sang for her. After listening to the many youthful voices, Mrs Brown was selected and carried by the singer to the rostrom and holding the hand of the great singer sang, Mary had little Lamb," and one other piece time has effaced. She remembers the singers beautiful voice, charming in the extreme, and of her very tender and loving advice to the little girls, and holding Mrs Brown on her lap tell ing her what sweet little girl she was, and having voice like canary bird, kissed her with the motherly love to an orphan; and with many kind ex- pression she predicted a glorious future in store for all good singing little girls in her valedictory address. Mrs Brown being the only one in school who sang with her came in for the lions share of caresses and praise. /

Besides the Christmas list MT Dougal put on a very large number which spoke well for his consideration for the time and place. MT Dougal used an Edison Triumph with the new attach ments, the same as on a ormer occa- sion, which played the amberol or four minute, also the two minute records al- ternately with no appreciable loss of time in the change.
