DEATH OF MRS. VI. J. PORTER.
She rasscs Away After Long and
Useful Life.

a letter from Kingstree to The
News and Courier says Mrs. Mary
J. Porter died at her home in Kings
tree on Wednesday after long and
painful illness which she bore with
Christian fortitude. Mrs Porter DE-
longed TO the well known LesesDe
family, OF Williamsburg and Claren-
don, and spent her long life OF seven
ty-three years in and near this his

and honorcd by all who came within
the sphere OF her influence and ex-
ample. In early womanhood, as
Miss Mary J. Lesesne, She married
the Hon. Edward J. Porter, noted
lawyer in his day, and who has been
accounted the most learned and
scholarly man who ever pract"sd
at this Bar.
Mr.. Porter, at one time, was
newspaper and magazine writer. but
gave this up TO devote himself 10

Great Loss in Cucumbers.

The Blackville Courier says: "It
seems a pity to see the immense loss
of our farmers in cucumbers. Many
have come out, the pity is to know.
that the crop is now in the best con-
dition, with thousands and thou
sands of dollars worth now on The
vines, ard no market for them. Blu"
after all, it may be blessing IN dis
guise, as it shows our people the
folly Of OVERRIDING thing. Think
of hundreds of acres planted in any
thing that yields as much to the
acre as cucumbers, and that you can t
stow away until prices are right.
1t is to be hoped that the acreage
will not be decreased next year. but
that the crop will be varigated'

LIGHTNING SAFETIES.
Some Simple Rules That All Can
Comply With.


This is the season of the year says
the Roanoke Times, when hundreds
of people are killed by lightning, and
most of the deaths are due III
thoughtIessness; for while the freak
ish nature of lightning is such that
it is nearly impossible in every in
stance to guard against the DEATH
dealing bolt, yet il is possible to ra-
duce the danger to the minimum
A short time ago while 16 chill
.dren were attending asSunday .schoo!
picnic nea" Sparta, Ca. thunder
storm came up. The children sought
refuge under tree which was struck
by bolt of lightning, rendering
the 16 children unconscious. None
of the 16 were killed outright,
though six Of them may die. Ther2
were two physicians in the crowd
who resusciated the victims.
The most dangerous place during
thunderstorm Is under a tree, and
although nine out of every ten per-
sons know this, it does not seem to
have the effect Of keeping people
from under them during a,storm, for
each summer season furnishes its
quota of killed by lightning through
this oversight. BY all means stay
away from tall trees during a thun-
derstorm. If protection Is necessary,
get under low shrubbery.
y book might be written upon
How to Act During a Thunder
storm" There are few precautions
to be suggested. The Indians were
wise enough to know that the safest
position during thunderstorm is
lying fiat upon the ground. This
is what they did for protection. But
they did not have houses in which
to go.
Many people are annually killed
in the fields because they will re-
main there un.il the storm is upon
them. When working in the field
get out Q It as soon as you are sat
is6ed that the storm Is coming your
way. Barns are struck oftener than
residences, so the house is the safest
place during the storm.
Do not get in a draft, and make
sure the storm is fully past before
going out Lightning rods do not
afford much protection. so do not
put too much reliance in them. Do
not lean against the wall during the
storm, and get as far away from the
fireplace as you can.

Two Gallant Soldiers Of the Con.

Editor Times and Democrat:
Will you allow me space in your
columns to verify in part what DR..
T. H. Drehr, of st. Matthews, says
of the two Carolina Colonels in the
stirring days of '61-65, published in
yoar paper of the 18th inst. What
he says of Colonel Lawrence M. Keitt
and Colonel Olin NJ. Dantzler, who
were our regimental commanders in
early part of the strife is true. No
two braver men enlisted in the war
from Carolina, for during the bonn
bardment and seige of Battery Wag-
ner on Morris Island, Colonel o. NJ.
Dantzler went himself, with detach-
ment of his command, from Sulli-
vans Island to relieve the garrison
at that battery, and I was one among
that number. When General Gill

structive shells at the battery from
his Ironsides and Monitors at close

SHOT IN THE THIGH.
III. S. Garick Accidentally Shoots
His Brother.

The State says that Lonnie Gar

Columbia, lies at hospital in that
city with a 32-calibre bullet in his
body, fired accidentally by his broth

Cured at half-past six o'clock Sun
day morning at Norway and the
wounded man was carried to CO.
lumbia at noon and taken to the
Columbia hospital where all efforts
to locate the ball have been futile.
The State says H. S. Garrick, the
young man in whose hands the pistol
was when the shot was fired, lives
at Norway, and his brother had gone
to that place to pay him a week 5
visit. The young men are both un-
married and they slept together.
According to the statement of H.
S. Garrick made to reporter of The
State, the wounded man got up first
and found an old pistol in his broth
er's room that had not been dis
charged for a long time. The cart
ridges were stuck fast in the cylin-
der and they punched them out with
nail. After cleaning the cylinder
of rust and the cartridges of ver-

weapon.
Asked how the pistol happened to
go off. Garrick said, II just pulled
the trigger, not thinking 1t was 60
ing to explode the cartridge, and the
hammer was up and it went Off y
The ball took effect in the thigh and
followed the femoral artery, but its
