Old Man Slain BY Son.

Eloree, Aug. 15.-Early Thursday
morning, Harry Clark, white, who
lived alone near Eutaw Springs, was
shot and killed az he lay asleep In his
bed by his son, young mulatto. The
purpose of the slayer was probably
robbery. It is supposed that Clark
had q considerable sum Of money in
his house and that the young mulatto,
becoming aware of this, fplanned the
brutal murder.
As the old man lay asleep the MUIR
derer shot of the top Of his head.
The assassin then took the blood
stained garments OF his victim into
the lot and burned them. He put the
corpse into wagon, concealed it
with straw and trash and hauled it
into dense thicket, where he dug a
hole and buried the body.
He then returned to Eutawville,
where he wrote an order to one of the
leading merchants of that place, forg-
ing the old mans name for small
amount. 4 The merchant, being famil-
lar with Clark's affairs, knew there
was something wrong and suspicion
was at once aroused. A search was
at once made for Clark. 1t appears
that younger brother of the slayer
had watched his actions and knew
where his brother had carried the old
man and took the searching party to
the spot where the body was hidden.

Fearful Race Riot in Illinois.

A fearful race riot has been in pro-
gress for the past several days in
Springfield, H., in which several
whites and blacks have been killed.
The entire negro district of the city
has been fred and they are leaving
by every train. The entire militia of
the state have been unable 80 far to
check the mob. The cause of the
trouble has been of long standing, and
comes as result of several thousand
negroes moving into the city. II is
said that the negroes were becoming
too bold and impudent. The trouble
is costing the business men of the city
thousands of dollars daily, and great
excitement prevails.

Kills aIRI. COUSIN
AND SHOOTS HIMSELF
Horrible Tragedy Enacted in Saluda
County on FRIDAY.

One of the most horrible tragedies
4 ever heard of in Saluds County oc-
Cured two miles from Saluda at 4
O'Clock on Friday afternoon, when
Robert Rowe accidentally shot and
instantly killed! his cousin, Bessie
Rowe, q girl Of 1S years. and soon
afterwards shot himself, inficting q
wound from which he will inevitably
die.
The details of the shooting of the
Young lady are as follows: Robert
Rowe and young Hyler had started
squirrel hunting and got out to the
road. Another young man came along,
q brother of the dead girl, and asked
Robert and Hyler to go in with him to
cut watermelon before going out
on the hunt.
On reaching the piazza the young
girls brother began to cut mellon
and asked Hyler to cut another. Rob-
ert Rowe and Hyler had only a few
minutes before had their guns I'M
breeched and were blowing down the
barrels. When Robert Rowe reached
the piazza he told Bessie Rowe, who
was sitting near the door leading into
the hallway with her hands on her
face. to take down her hands and look
straight into the barrel Of his gun,
which he was at that moment point
ing at her. She laughingly did so
and immediately Robert pulled the
trigger and the gun fred. She fell
backward and died instantly.
Robert Rowe is still living, though
there seems no chance at all of his
ever getting well. His wound is q
frightful one. He, put the muzzle of
the shotgun under his chin and pulled
the trigger, the load tearing away his
chin and large portion of his face.
His tongue was shot completely away
at the root.

for the reason that they did not
want drinking people in theit
homes. Nearly all the people OF
these cities would at any time
furnish food and shelter for these
battle.scarred veterans, provided
they had left off the excessive
use of whiskey. But on account
OF this bad habit with them they
have for some years been lodged
in tents and provided with straw
for bedding.
Shall we blame the committees
of management and charge want
of respect for the boys of the
Confederacy? No, not that but
the State and county put the
whiskey in easy reach, and some
failed to resist the temptation :;
and we all know The result.
But about meeting in Green
vile where there is no liquor
sold. Not veteran was under
the influence Of strong drink.
and hey were practically the
same men who attend the re
unions zach year.
The difference in the behavior
of these old men where whiskey
is sold and where it is not should
cause the voters in South Caro-
lima TO consider the harm they
are doing their fellowmen in
voting for the sale of whiskey.
And again, the men who pat
ronize these dispensaries as a
rule are those who have but little
money, and that is needed at
their homes to buy clothing and
food for the women and children.

complimentary Words in a
Leading Baltimore Daily
about a Charming Young
Lady of Lancaster.

- AAoA AAAAlS IOuIlS
Lady of Lancaster.
The Baltimore American of
last Thursday had the following
to say about Miss Florence Rob.
inson, The deservedly popular and
highly attractive young lady of
the Heath-Jopes company, who
has been in Baltimore tor some
days, buying the company's fall
stock of goods:
The millinery houses are be-
ing especially rushed now, as
many Southern milliners come
up at this time of the year, and
the houses look more as though
social function of some sort
were going on than the serious
proposition OF selling goods
1t must not be thought that
the mllliners and feminine buy-
ers are frivolous lot; far from it.
They examine samples, inquire
prices and Place orders with as
much rapidly, and often with
more taste, than do most Of the
buyers of the opposite sex. An
especially charming example OF
tins class is Miss Florence Rob.
lnson, who has been in Bati
more for the last lew days buy
ing bills from the local hou ,es
that would put many of the mer-
shants to shame. She repres-
ents Heath-Jones Co., of Lam.
caster, S. G, and is enthusiastic
over the prospects for business
this fall.
"Of course" said Miss Robin
son, "everything depends on the
price cotton will bring, as around
Lancaster, we have very large
crops of that staple. The far
mers are little spoiled on the
question of price. They got such
big prices last year that they
think they ought to get Is cents
every year. am afraid that thew
will not get anything like that
much, however, though we do
hope they will get 10 cents. |
have been buying for Heath
Jones Co., for several years and
although [ am not buying quite
as much this year as | did last,
the orders are large and will sur.
pass any placed before last year.
81 think we are treated splen-
didly in Baltimore, and ( look
forward to my trip here very
much. We buy nearly all of
our goods here now, as we have
found that not only is it more
pleasant but we can do much
better in Baltimore than in any
othe" city"
Tonight about 800 of the visi
t1rs, and as many more as are
IN town can come, will be taken
down to Riverview Park by The
travellers and Merchants Asso-
citation, on the second outing OF
the series. A chicken and sea-
food supper will be served on the
por@hes OF the pavillion,' and the
visitors will be provided with
tickets admitting them to all the
shows on the grounds. Captain
Ii. w. Bennett has promised a
number OF new features in addi
tion TO the amusements provided

SHIPPING IRON To

c. H. Brown, manager of the Honolu-
lu Scrap Iron Co., of which the Trent
Trust Co, is agent, shipped to the coast
on the bark r. P. Rithet six hundred
and forty-eight tons of scrap composed
of metal articles of every description
The company has representatives over
the islands and in that way secures ma
terials which would be overlooked by
any firm or company having a less
active manager than Mr.. Brown.
After shipping this large quantity of
iron the company retained in its yards
an assortment of articles of particular
value TO engineers and individuals who
intend to extend their water systems
or pipe lines for any purpose In addi-
ton to valves, pipes, elbows, Us, pumps
and other articles one will find every
thing from a needle to an engine not
enumerated above and the pleasure of
1T is, to the buyer, that the articles are
so low priced that the temptation to
buy is exceeded only by that of the
lady In history who bought coffin plates
at auction only because they were
cheap.
