SHILLING WHIsKEY AT CHURCH.
A White Man Dispenses it at Cedar
Grove.-Negroes Drunk Shoot
Pistols.

There was big meeting at Cedaf
Grove on Sunday. That IS not an un-
usnal occurrence, but from reports
from those from the city Of Newberry
who attended tine meeting on Sunday
at Cedar Grove, there must have been
some unusual occurrences on that day,
al least.
Cedar Grove is a negro Methodist
church just fifteen miles from New
berry and three miles from Whltmlre
ON the road between Whltmlre ana
Newoersy. 1t has large membership
and during these big meetings - the
membership and those who attend
have the advantage Of tents ana
buildings in which to live during the
meeting. According to report from
some Of those who went to Cedar
on Sunday, and a very large number
of negroes from the city went up
there. the place was more one OF car
ousal than a place al WnN"r Ilies "'0
assembled for worship.
The negro from Newberry who talk
ed to The Herald and News, SAID tnat
there were a number Of persons drunk
and pistols were shot in the air ana
in the ground, and that there was a
white man on the grounds selling
whiskey in pints and halt plnts and
quarts. He carried his supply IN a
buggy and sold it openly to those VINO
we're al Cedar Grove on Sunday. There
MAS one woman. he said, who locked
herself in one Of the houses in order
10 keep from being killed by her hus-
hand. and in the slash Of knives one
If Mr.. Bells mules was cut: but 1t
seems no one Of the worshlpers was
injured either by being shot or cut
There was also a tent on the
Grounds in which barbecued meat and
hash were being served and fish was
being cooked and sold as if 1t were
= REGULAR circus day The negro who
gave this information to The Herald
and News said that there were quite
a number of Newberry negroes pres
ent and that he did not know the name
of The man who was selling the Wills
kew or the names Of any Of those who
were doing the shooting. He stated
that one negro in particular that ne
noticed. had his pistol in his hand
during the entire day. He says that
he left early in the day and reached
Newberry about seven o'clock IN the
afternoon. He says that he under
stood that the authorities had sent ov-
or TO Whitmire for constable, but
he does not know whether the consta-
BILE came or not. that he had not ar
rived when he left. IF this statement
IS true, and we have no reason to
do,7bt it. the officers Of TIE law ought
70 look into the situation. and 1t would
seem to be an easv matter to find out
who the man is who was selling whls-
kew on SUNDAY at Cedar Grove. And
at least the names Of those who were
shooting mp the place.

So much has been said about good
roads. befcke tte election on last
Tuesday how the roads could be work
ed without issuing bonds, now let's
see if they will put what they say into
practice. We have heard that one OF
our overseers. one who certainly
knows how to work a road. and who
does work it whenever he does work,
make a good suggestion to the peo-
pie on his road, that if they. the peo-
ole. would in turn furnish him with
mules he would plough up the road
with a two-horse plow and then drag
the dirt to the center. We heartily
endorse his plan for that is the only
wav we can have fairly good roads
with no cost. The bond issue has been
killed and now let us carry out that
plan perfectly and we will have no
room to cry bad roads.
