FORdlVEs WIFE FOR LEAVING.
Paris Doctor Proceeds to Nurse Her
Back to Health.

PARIS, April 23.-Five years ago
Paris doctor obtained divorce from
his wife, who deserted her home and
her three children to elope With an
other man. The doctor recently re-
ceived an appointment as one of the
visiting physicians at a public sani-
tarium, twenty miles from Paris.
While he was examining new pa
tients, wan, consumptive woman,
still young and with traces Of past
good looks, was brought into his con-
sulting room. The doctor looked at
the woman, and recognized her as his
divorced wife. The woman turned
pale and trembled violently, but the
doctor gave no sign of recognition
and quietly prescribed for her.
Later he went to the ward occupied
by his wife, and had a long converse
ton with her. Reconciliation follow
ed, and the woman has left for the
Swiss mountains, in the company OF
the doctor and her eldest son, to be
nursed back to health.

Deed of q Degenerate.

Butler Pinson, a dissipated and way
ward youngmanofG Greenwood odcounty,
having earlier prepared for the deed,
arose about 3 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing and fired one barrel of his gun at
his fathers head and the other at
his mothers, while they were asleep
in the same room and only sfew feet
from his bed. It seems almost mi
raculous that neither was hurt, the
load in each case missing its mark a
few inches and lodging in the pillow
and the head of the bed. He then
left the house. and was arrested at
Honea Path Wednesday afternoon
and brought to Jail at Greenwood.
Until he was arrested he supposed
thathis mother was killed. His father
fell from the bed at the first shot but
was heard to get up again. He ex-
pressed the opinion that his son want
ed to get them out Of the way in
order to get division of the estate
with his brother. The degenerate
son says this was not his motive,
but says he does not know why he
did it. He is 26 years old. He has
been at home very little for some
time.

Homicide in Aiken County.

AIKEN, April 27.-On Sunday night,
Warren Morning, a young white man of
Madison, was brought to Aikenby Sheriff
Raborn and lodged in Jail on the charge
of murder. Sunday afternoon Mr.. Ra-
born received message from Morning
stating that he desired him to come at
once for him; as he wished to surrender,
and that he was afraid to come alone, as
he understood that some threats had
been made against him. The sheriff ar
rived with him at II o'clock Sunday
night.
The homicide charged to young Morn
ing occurred on Saturday night at Madi-
son, when he struck another white man
named James Cushman on the head with
a fence picket, making an indentation of
the skull, from which wound he died on
Sunday morning. It appears that from
the reports heard concerning the affair,
that Morning twitted Cushman about
something trivial, and that the latter
took offense at the remark, at which
Morning apologized for his action, stat
ing that he meant no offense. tits said,
however, that Cushman followed him
with an open knife and made for him
with it, upon which Morning jerked off
a fence picket and struck Cushman on
the head. Death resulted Sunday morn
ing.
Both parties are white. This is the
first homicide to occur in the county in
some time in which white men were con-
cerned.

Family of Criminals.

A grim epitaph, perhaps unex-
ampled, is to be found in the ceme-
terry of Debrescin, Eastern Hungary.
It reads as follows: Here rest in
the Lord Joseph Moritz, Sr., who
died in his sixty-second year. He
was shot by his son, Frau Joseph
Moritz, who died in her forty-seventh
year. She was shot by her daughter.
Elizabeth Moritz, who died by her
own hand, in her seventeenth year.
after shooting her mother. Frau
Joseph Moritz, who died in prison,
age twenty-seven. He had shot his
father. May eternal mercy have pity
on their poor, sinful souls"
The last of this unfortunate family
left sum of 1900 pounds for the
purpose of setting up this memorial.

Leaped to Death.

New YORK, April 25-With a laugh
at the vain efforts of his wife to
balk him in his determination to COM
mitsuicide Eugene Munsell, president
of the Mica Insulating company, and
one of the prominent hardware men
in the country, leaped to death from
the window of his seventh story
apartment in his hotel at Its West
Seventy second street, early to-day.
Albert Geiger, ticket agent at the
Seventy-second streetsubway station,
who had seen Mr.. Munsell on the
ledge outside his window and who
had called to him not to jump, found
him dead when he reached his side.
The family had just returned from
an Easter holiday at Aiken, S. c.,
where they had gonefor Mr.. Munsell's
health, and were planning to go to
Lakewood, N. j.
Munsell, who was fifty-six years
old, was associated with L. V. King
Storey and Franklin Graekes in the
Mica Insulating company at 68
Church street, and was one Of the
most prominent figures in the hard
ware and metal trade of the country.

FOUGHT WITH BURGLAR.
Chester Man Has Thrilling Experience
in his Bed Room.

CHESTER, April 24.-A burglar en-
tered Mrs. M. A. Nails home, on
York street, at an early hour yester-
day morning, making his entrance
through window on the first floor
and ascending to the second story,
evidently being in search of money.
The first intimation that there was an
intruder on the premises came TO Mr..
Pinkston Nail, who, on hearing
stealthy footsteps, reused himself and
secured his revolver. The weapon,
however, was not in working order,
and he was forced to advance upon
the burglar with what weapons ne
could pick up. The burglar was in
the sleeping room of Mr.. w: R. Nail,
who had not been aroused by the
noise, butno sooner had Mr.. Pinks-
ton Nail sprung from his bed than he
was faced by the intruder, who was
entering the room. MIR. Nail went
at his antagonist and landed several
blows. On account of the height OF
the intruder, however, and the fact
that he protected himself with a
chair, the blows were not as telling
as they would have been otherwise:
Mr.. Nail thinks, though that one OF
them found it's mark and did some
damage. By this time Mr.. W. r.
Nail had awoke and came to the res
cue of his brother. The burglar find
ing himself hard pressed retreated
down the stairs and leaped through
the window.
The Messrs. Nail were confident
that there were more than one en-
gagged in the attempt, although n only
one man was seen during the en-
counter. However, the wet ground
on the outside showed that the fellow
had no confederates. He is described
as being a white man of heavy build
and smooth shaven. One of the pc
culiarities about the affair is that the
fellow had removed all Of his top
clothing. The police, who are at work
on the case, have discovered that the
burglar disrobed at the school house,
on Foote street, before entering the
Nail house, afterward returning
there to don his garments.
The attempt to burglarize the Nail
house, together with the sensational
encounter that resulted and other
features, make the case one OF the
most interesting ever heard of around
here; and it is to be hoped that the
guilty party will be detected. Mr..
Pinkston, Nail had a clear view of the
burglars face, despite the fact that
the latter made efforts to shield his
identity by holding up his hands and
by placing a chair before him, and
Mr.. Nail is satisfied that he can easi-
ly identify his antagonist if the police
succeed in landing him.

Ehrhardt EtchingS.

EHRHARDT, April 27.-The Kearse
club played the Ehrhardt graded school
nine on the school grounds last Satur-
day afternoon. The school nine had no
trouble to beat them, not near enough
to be interesting. Three or four innings
the Kearse nine did not make score.
We are having plenty rain these days;
the farmers say they can't work their
small crops. It's too wet, and it is so
warm that we fear the grass is going to
get the start on them. Several farmers
carried turns of hoes out of town Satur-
day and say they are not to be placed
up to look at butto be used from sun to
sun.
The Methodist conference at this place
lasted up to Sunday night. Notwith-
standing the bad weather there was a
fairly good attendance on Sunday; not
near the crowd that would have been
present had the weather been favorable.

bers of friends all over the city, who
are grieved on his account, and who
earnestly hope for his recovery.
No man who ever worked for the
Seaboard had more friends in Able
vile than Sam Neisler. His father
lived here for many years, as did his
sister, now Mrs. Daisy Shakespeare,
of Philadelphia. Sam Neisler reach
ed his manhood in Abbeville, andhas
been afaithful engineer for ten years.
He was a man of character and stand
ing in his community, and the people
of this place feel a great loss in his
death. It is doubly regretted on ac-
count of the fact that he leaves a
wife, a bride of only a few weeks.
She came here from her home in
Richmond only a short time ago, and
during that time she has won a place
in the hearts of all here who know
her. The people of the city sympa-
thize with her in her great loss. It
cannot be learned at this time just
what caused the wreck. 1t is, how
ever, stated that It was due to the
washout of a fill caused by regular
waterspout. So far as is known, no
blame now attaches to the railway
people.
