ORANGEBURG PASTOR WHIPPED
The Rev. E. M. Lightfoot Victim of
Attack by Frank Demars.

Orangeburg, August 28.-A SEN
sational affair occurred this after
noon on the Northbound Atlantic
Coast Line train, about mile out
side the city limits, when Frank De-
city, attacked the Rev. E. N. Light
foot and struck him twice with
part of a buggy whip, while Mr..
Lightfoot, who is pastor of the Bap-
tist church here. was on his way to
New York.
The difficulty was result of a
letter written by Mr.. Lightfoot to an
other preacher of this county, in
which he stated that Mr.. Demars
was one of the parties who placed
coffin on the minister's porch more
than year ago, which affair caused
much Indignation among the citi-
zens of this place. The grand jury
made an investigation, but no indict-
ment was returned. Demars says
that an explanation made by him to
Mr.. Lightfoot had been accepted by
the latter, who stated that he no
longer suspected Demars as being
connected with the coffin affair. Mr..
Demars' statement of this afternoons
trouble is that, feeling that he had
been slandered and his wife and chill
dren reflected on, he was determin-
ed to demand an explanation, and as
Mr.. Lightfoot was to be absent from
the city for several weeks he decid-
ed to have the matter settled with
out delay. He boarded the train
this afternoon and when beyond the
city limits asked the minister if he
wrote the letter, and produced a
copy of the same. Mr.. Lightfoot re-
piled that he didn't care to- discuss
it, whereupon Demars drew whip
and struck the minister twice, after
which he desisted on account of the
presence of ladies in the coach. Mr..
Lightfoot continued on his journey
and MIR. Demars returned here to-
night. Mr.. Lightfoot's side Of the
affair will probably not be known
until he returns, when there will
doubtless be further developments.

Last Wednesday morning the
Bamberg Herald was on the streets
before daylight with the result of
the election in this county, as well
as a report of results in the State
primary which was as complete as
possible and gave predictions which
have not been changed by the Off
cial count. Only two boxes were
missing in this county, and these
could not change the result in any
contest. Our friends, many of them,
have kindly congratulated us on our
work, and we are grateful. It is our
desire to print the news all the time,
and we will give Bamberg county an
up-to-date newspaper if they will
give us their patronage. But we
can't do it if they give their business
to some cut throat cheap john.

Campaign Fund.

Up to last week Bamberg had made
no attempt to assist in supplement

at Columbia by the State newspaper,
even though a majority of the towns
of any Importance in the State had
made at least one, and in some cases
as many as two or three contribu-
tions. Mr.. w. C. Patrick, feeling
that the town should at least have
some representation in the fund, cir
culated a subscription list and sue
ceeded in raising s21.S5 which was
forwarded to Mr.. William E. Con

Indian Bones Unearthed.

While digging on the Updegraf
farm, above Newberry, Lycoming
County, recently, several workmen
turned up an old Indian skull and
some body bones. The ground in
which they were digging is back OF
the schoolhouse, and it is supposed
to be the site of an old Indian camp
ing ground. The skeleton is prob
ably over two hundred years old, as
the land has been held by the Upde-
CRAFTS for that length of time. The
skull is that of an unusually large
man, as it measures ten inches across
the jaw and is extremely large in all
parts. An almost full set of teeth
remained in the mouth, and all were
in perfect condition. The bones
which were found were also large in
proportion and well developed. Ths
body appeared to have been buried
in blanket, and was placed in the
ground head down.-Philadelphia
