BRUTAL CRIME IN HARTsvILLE.
Recently Married Lady Assaulted by
Negro.

Hartsville, Dec. %, a. m.-There
is great deal of excitement here to-
night because of an outrage commit
ted upon white woman by negro
at this time unknown.
On account of the fact that 1t is
raining and that the crime was COM
mitted at night, the news was slow TO
spread, but at midnight a large
crowd had collected, and it is sure
that the negro will be caught.
The young woman, who Is respect
ed most highly, is but recently mar
ried. She was alone at home Monday
night when the brute forced his way
in and overpowered her. DR.. Eggles-
ton says that her injuries are serious
but not necessarily dangerous. -
She fought the negro off and will
recognize him upon sight. The crowd
has the guilty man spotted and ne
will be arrested before daylight. No
mob violence is feared, although the
men are deeply incensed.

TREASURES SHORT.
Result of investigations Made BY
Comptroller Jones.

Comptroller General Jones has re-
ported to Gov. Ansel the result of an
examination of the books Of the
treasurer of Hampton and the treas
urer of Edgefleld counties and from
the figures submitted it Is charged
that there is a shortage Of $7,723.46
in the accounts of J. T. Pattison,
treasurer of Edgefield county, and
that there Is shortage Of ST.
670.79 with j. C. Langford. the
treasurer of Hampton county.
The report was submitted to Gov.
Ansel yesterday and as result both
of these officials have been suspend
ed, pending further action and In
vestigation.
One of the marked features Of the
report is the fact that Pattison was
reported in 1904 and was removed
from Office by Gov. Hayward, after
wards being reinstated when the
shortage reported was paid up. A
suit by the Farmers bank Of Edge
field is now pending for settle
ment of this case. It is not thought
by several who have looked over
Z dIIIoOA . DOoho ekA4oS AO 40 AAS-
honest, but that there is lack Of
knowledge of keeping the books
properly and as a result the short
age was caused by bad bookkeep-
ing.
In the case Of Hampton county a
thorough Investigation was made,
and Mr.. Giles L. Wilson, the bank
examiner was called upon by
Comptroller General Jones to ex-
anime the affairs Of the Hampton
bank and report on certain checks
that were given for deposit. The res
port goes into details of this exam
ination and the explanation Of the
bank cashier.
The two cases given are those OF
series made by Comptroller Gem
eral Jones during the past six years
and while there is much difficulty
in making these annual settlements
it seems that many Of the grand jury
committees on this work do not go
into the details as they should.

Strong Plea for Statehood.

Washington, Dec. 20.-"We have
a wide-awake, progressive, industri-
Gus, and intelligent population and
we want to be treated like men,"
In these words George Curry, Of
New Mexico, couches an appeal for
statehood for his Territory in his an
nual report to the secretary of the
interior, made public to-day.
Gov. Curry says New Mexico's
credit is excellent, that no strikes
mar the record of it's industries; the
laws enacted by its legislature are
good; gambling is prohibited and
the Sunday closing" vigorously en-
forced. He says that the population
of the Territory is over 100000
and that there is over 100000, 900
worth Of property in New Mexico in
addition to its coal, timber and fer
tile lands.

ROW OVER. OFFICERS.
Count y Board Of Orangeburg Don't
Want Supervisor to Appoint.

There is considerable of squab-
BILE over in Orangeburg over the ap-
pointment Of county attorney, and
the county board Of commissioners
and the supervisor are very much d1-
vided on the subject. The Times and
Democrat gives the following account
of the meeting held last Monday:
"Mr. F. J. D. Fielder, the supervi-
sor, presided, and after the routine
business was gone through with, the
filling of the various Offices came up.
Mr.. Fielder, who claims that the new
act creating the present county gov
ernment gives him the right to ap-
point all the. officers that were for.
merly selected by the supervisor and
county commissioners, named Col. T.
F. Brantley for attorney and Mr. NJ.
E. Zeigler for clerk as his appointees.
This caused a clash between Mr..
Fielder and the township commis-
sioners.
sThe township commissioners ac-
cepted the nomination of Mr.. Zeigler
as clerk, but declined to accept the
nomination of Col. Brantley as at
torney, claiming that they had the
right to elect an attorney, and pro-
ceeded to elect DR.. Sturkey to the
Office. They also elected Mr.. E. G.
Hoover superintendent Of the poor
farm. We understand that they base
their action on an opinion rendered
by Assistant Attorney General De-
Bruhl to the effect that these of1ces
must be filled by the full board and
not by the supervisor alone.
"supervisor Fielder refused to ac-
cept this opinion as final, and Will
carry the matter before some judge
for his decision. The law says the
supervisor must appoint the clerk,
but it does not provide how the at
torney is to be elected or appointed,
and that is what caused the squabble.
Only one of the township commits
sioners, Mr.. T. E. Early voted with
Mr.. Fielder. The other eighteen, with
some four exceptions, voted against
Mr.. Felder's construction OF the law,
and elected DR.. Sturkie attorney OF
the board.
eve understand that Mr.. Fielder
declines to accept the election OF DR..
Sturkie as final, still claiming that
he has been advised to that eject by
one law firm at this bar, so 1t seems
that lawyers differ in their opinion
as well as the balance OF US. The
meeting was real warm at times, and
finally adjourned in a not too har-
monious mood. If neither side yields,
and the indications are that they
won't, the question will have to be
decided by the courts"

Ehrhardt Etchings.

Ehrhardt, Dec. 21.-Christmas is
near at hand, and the children are
busy every night writing letters to
old Santa Claus, telling him what
they want him to bring them. To see
their wants written out would make
you smile in good style. The postof-
fee the children mail them at is the
fire place, usually in the sitting
room, and they say Santa can read
their wants in the smoke as it rises
from the chimney top. Santa must
be a good reader, as it would puzzle
our best scholars to make anything
out of some of the children's marks
on paper. The young ladies use lit
tie better scheme. They make wishes
to Santa when their best fellows are
