News has been received in the city
of a shooting affair at the residence
of w. B. Cause near Cowards late
yesterday evening. Lewis Lee aged
so, unmarried, shot Rhett Matthews
with breach loading gun. The
charge entered Matthews's thig hand
made a great wound. Drs. Pate and
Graham, of Scranton were hurriedly
summoned. They expressed an opin-
ion that while the wound was bad
one it was not necessarily fatal. 1t
is learned that Lee who did the
shooting was still at Mr.. Causes
house last night. Sheriff Burch was
notified this morning and it is pre-
sumed that the arrest of Lee has been
made some time this afternoon.
It is stated that the cause Of the
shooting was an old grudge. Par
ties stated that Lee asked Mathews
for his knife and that after Matthews
handed up the knife the shooting
took place. It is further stated that
Lee was drinking at the time. Both
parties are white and well known

Rig Cotton Mill Burned.

Charlotte, N. c., Aug. 15.-Mill
No. 4, the largest Of the group OF
five owned by the Odell Manufactur-
ing Company at Concord, was de-
stroyed by fire at noon to-day, en-
failing a loss of half million dol
lars. The fire originated in the
basement through hot box and the
flames were communicated to floors
above by betting. So rapid was it's
spread that nothing could be done
toward saving the building and on
" by heroic efforts were the other
four mills saved. The burned mill
contained $4,000 spindles and l,30O
looms and was the newest OF the
five mills. The Odell mills, together
with the site of 100 acres, company
stores and houses, were to be SOLD
under the hammer on the 18th OF
next month by decree of the United
States district court. Caesar Cone
of Greensboro was appointed re-
ceiver for the property two years
ago and the mills have been oper-
ated since under his directions.

for the lad.

Alexander was a scion of one or
the prominent families in the coun-
ty and was unmarried.

Killed Resisting Arrest.

Augusta, Ca, Aug. 12.-Police
Officer w. o. Matthews last night at
midnight shot and killed Edwin B.
Turner, of North Augusta, S. c.
Turner was, up to short time, ago,
marshal of North Augusta, S. c. Last

ication and disorderly conduct.
Turner drew his pistol and Mat
thews fired five times, four bullets
taking effect.
The coroner's jury returned YER
dict this afternoon declaring that the
shooting was in self-defense, accord
ing to their belief, hence exonerated
the Augusta officer.

TRAGEDY IN SALUDA.
Boy Accidentally Kills Girl Cousin
and Commits Suicide.

Saluda, August 14.-One of the
most horrible double tragedies ever
heard of in Saluda county occurred
two misel from this place at 4
o'clock this afternoon, when Ernest
Rowe accidentally shot and instant
ly killed his cousin, Jessie Rowe, a
girl of IS years, and soon after
wards shot himself, inf1icting a
wound from which he died in thirty
minutes.
The young man and the girl were
at the home of Miss Rowe. While
Ernest Rowe was playing with the
gun, which he thought was not
loaded, the weapon was fired, the
entire load of shot entering the
girls mouth, killing her instantly.
Horrified at what had happened Err
nest Rowe begged some one to kill
him, saying that the horror of what
he had done was more than he could
bear, and that if none of those pres
ent would shoot him he would kill
himself. Little attention was paid
to what he said, but soon a shot was
heard outside the house and on
rushing out the crowd found Rowe
weltering in his own blood, He
had placed the gun under his right
Jaw and the load had torn away the
side of his jaw. He died in half
hour.
Ernest Rowe was 1S years Of age
was the son of Bud Rowe. Jessie
Rowe was the daughter Of ]. T.
Rowe. There is no doubt that the
killing of the girl was entirely an
accident.

SERIOUS RUNAWAY IN LAURENs
DR.. r. F.. Godfrey Dangerously In.
jured by Maddened Horse.

Laurens, August 13.-This after
noon at 2 o'clock there occurred a
disastrous runaway, resulting in se-
rious injury to DR.. r. F. Godfrey,
the complete demolition of his buggy
and the fatal injury of his horse
DR.. Godfrey was driving from his
home, about four miles from the
city, into Laurens and crossed the
Charleston and Western Carolina
Railway track within the city limits
just ahead of passenger train No. 3
from Spartanburg. The passing Of
the train of cars so close behind the
horse evidently caused the runaway,
the horse making dash down the
declining road toward Little River
Bridge. So great was the speed that
when the turn of the road at River
Bridge was reached horse, buggy
and driver smashed into the railing
Of the bridge, and tearing It away.
fell nearly twenty feet into the small
stream below, the horse falling on
top of DR.. Godfrey, and the buggy
being torn completely mp. The
horses hind leg was broken in two
places, and it will have to be killed
DR.. Godfrey's left leg was broken
just little above the knee, one rib
fractured and hurt internally
The extent of the doctors intnr-
les cannot yet be determined as he
has not recovered from the shock.
Fortunately there was negrp
standing nearby when the accident
occurred, else DR.. Godfrey would
have been drowned in the shallow
stream, for his head was in water
when the negro reached him. y +
supposed that the falling of the hotse
on DR.. Godfrey caused his severest
and most painful injuries. At s.
O'Clock tonight DR.. Godfrey had not
shown any satisfactory rally and was
still in a semi-conscious state and
in a very precarious condition. s

A NeWsy Letter.

A wholesome scorn of physical ills
is good thing, according to the
philosophy of boy in the State
School for Dependent Children, who
wrote his father thus:
Dear Papa: We children are
having a good time here now. Mr..
Sager broke his leg and can't work.
We went on a picnic and it ralned
and we all got wet. Many children
here are sick with mumps. Mr.. Hlg-
gins fell off the wagon and broke his
rib, but he can work a little. The
man that is digging the deep well
whipped us boys with buggy whip,
because we threw sand in his ma
chine, and made black and blue
marks on us. Ernest cut his fnger
badly. We are all very happy. -

"Bang it Again!"

The family were gathered in the
library admiring a splendid thunder
storm, when the mother bethought
herself of Dorothy, alone in the nur-
sery. Fearing lest her little daugh-
ter should be awakened and feel
afraid, she slipped away to reassure
her. Pausirg at the door, however
in vivid flash of lightning which IL
Illuminated the whole room she saw
her Youngest olive branch sitting
straight up in bed.
Her big, brown eyes were glowing
with excitement, and she clapped her
chubby hands, while in her shrlll
voice she shouted encouraglngly,
Bang it again, God! Bang it again!

STIRRED UP HORNETS NEST.
Charleston Lime and Cement Com
pany has Cabinet Officers Enjoined.

Washington, August ia Char
lesion firm has stirred upa hornets
nest here, and never before, perhaps,
have so many Cabinet officers and
high Government officials been sum-
moned to Court at one time as was
done to-day.
On request OF the Southeastern
Lime and Cement Company, of Char
lesion, Justice Barnard, of the Su-
preme Court of the District of Co.
lumbia, to-day cited Secretary Cor
telyou, of the treasury, Secretary
Metcalfe, of the navy, Treasurer
Treat, of the treasury, and the Beck
well Engineering Company, of New
York, to appear before him on Sep
,tember l, and show cause why an
Injunction should not be granted re-
straining the payment by the govern
ment to the Rockwell Engineering
Company of $1,775.50 for work
done for the treasury department.
It is declared by the Charleston
firm that as sub-contractors on gov
ernment work at Charleston they
furnished the materials used In some
of the work and have failed to re-
ceive payment. They further make
the allegation that the engineering
company above mentioned is insol-
vent and that such payment as is due
them will not be made unless the
Court interferes.
The filing of this case has caused
a considerable amount of talk here.
It sometimes happens that the Sec
retary of Treasury or the Treasurer
of the United States are re-
strained from making payments
because of the large amount
of money handled by them,
but it is most unusual for two Cab
met officers, high treasury official
and the defendant all to be enjoined
at one time.

IN THE PALMETTO STATE
SOME OCCURRENCES OF VARIOUS
KINDS IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
State News Boiled Down for Quick
Reading About
Men and Happenings.

Dillon is again making efforts for
a new county. The territory is now
being surveyed. Previous efforts
have resulted in failure.
JEFF Clarke, the young mulatto
charged with the murder OF his
white father, Calvin w. Clarke, at
Eutawville, has been carried to
Charleston jail for safe keeping
There was much indignation at, the
brutal murder, and it was feared he
would be lynched.
Stanyarne Wilson has withdrawn
from the race for the house OF rep
resentatives in Spartanburg county.
He says his friends were surpr1s-
ed that he should run for a minor
Office after being congressman, and
he will hold himself in readiness to
run fol-. a larger Office two years
hence.
J. P. Carroll, the Charleston blind
tiger, who has been in Florida TO
avoid arrest, returned to South Car
olina last week and applied for bail,
which was granted. He is to ap-
pear before the State Supreme Court
in November to answer charges OF
contempt. 1t is claimed he violated
the injunction against selling liquor.
A rumor was abroad last week
chat the dispensary case had been
decided by the United States court
of appeals, the rumor being that the
court had turned down Judge
Pritchard in every point and fully
sustained the contention of the
State. But it was only a rumor.
The, decision of the court has not
been filed, and will not be until next
month.
The county executive committee
OF Edgefeld recently arranged for
a separate box at the primary for
the people to vote on the whiskey
question, but their action was so un-
popular that they held a meeting
and rescinded it. The dispensary
was voted out of Edgefeld about
two years ago, and the people gen
orally seem to be satisfied with the
present state of affairs.
The police of Columbia raided
the club rooms of the I'M. & M.
Club in that city last Saturday
night and made the largest seizure
of whiskey and beer that has been
made in that city since the Carey
Cothran law went into effect. More
than 1000 bottles Of beer were
seized, as well as quantity OF
whiskey in half pint and quart bot
ties. Most of the whiskey was
stored between the floor and cell
ing.

Rhett for Senator.

A man better equipped for the Of
flee of United States Senator than
R. Goodwin Rhett, of Charleston,
could not be easily found. Trained
to the practice Of the law and sue
cessful in his profession, his natu-
raj tendencies have led him into con-
structive business, and his engage
ment in public affairs has followed
in consequence of commercial and
industrial efforts, and not from po-
litical interest. He is not politi-
clan at all, as the term is usually
understood. He is business man,
intensely interested in the material
development of the State, who has
thought deeply upon the ways
whereby the public welfare may be
promoted through practical legisla-
ton.
Born in Columbia, educated in the
schools of Charleston and at the
University of Virginia, Mr.. Rhett
began the practice of the law in
Charleston. He met with success
from the first. Particularly atten-
tive to commercial law, he soon be-
came interested in business enter
prise and development. The rehabi-
lation of an impaired bank having
come into his field of effort, he devot-
ed himself to the task with marked
ability and eminent success, and
from this essay he was led into bank
ing as a profession. He became the
head of one of the strongest banks
in the State, and he has, for more
than ten years, directed its affairs
not only profitably to the institution
but in the largest measure to the
benefit of his community and of the
entire State.
Elected as Alderman of the City
of Charleston, he soon became rec
ognized as an exponent Of business
methods in government and an ad-
vocate of commercial development.
He was called to the mayoralty
practically by the unanimous voice
of the business men of Charleston,
and, at the conclusion of his four
year term was reelected without
opposition. He has devoted himself
to the promotion of better relations
between the people of Charleston
and their neighbors in all parts OF
South Carolina, and has endeavored
in every way to make the mutual ad-
vantages and the resources of the
great port and the great interior re-
gion of the State. No enterprise
and no development promising ben
eft to the whole people of the State
has failed to command his sympa-
thy and support. His fight for fair
rates and efficient service by the
railroads has been one of the most
notable and effective undertakings
ever made in South Carolina.
Mr.. Rhett believes he can serve
the State in wider sphere and he
has definite ideas of the service he
can render, and these he is setting
forth in his campaign for the Dem
ocratic nomination for United
States Senator.

Investigation Shows Irregularities.

Charleston, Aug. 11.-At meet
ing of the city council to-day the re-
port of the special committee ap-
pointed some time ago to investigate
the affairs of the park board of this
city was received as information, or
dered published and its recommen-
dations adopted.
The report holds that there have
been many irregularities in the con-
duct of the affairs Of the park board
though the committee is unwilling
to specify the exact amount lost to
the city.
The report holds further that
Chairman Lapham, of the PARK
board, knew of the proceedings, even
though he may not have approved
of them.
In addition to this, the report re-
commended the dismissal of w. Z.
Jeffords, secretary of the park board.
The report also recommends that an
expert be employed to thoroughly IN
yestigate the affairs OF the commit
tee.
