NEGRO SHOT AT GEORGETOWN.
Bookkeeper for Lumber Company
Wounds Colored Laborer.

Georgetown, December 22.-As the
result of his insolence and attempted
attack upon Mr.. P. H. Pow, book
keeper at the general office of the
Atlantic Coast Lumber Corporation.
a negro laborer at the mills lies
wounded and disabled tonight, hav-
ing been shot in the side with pis-
tel in the hands of Mr.. Pow, as the
negro was about to throw rock at
him.
The hands we're being paid off for
the Christmas holidays when the la
borer in question disputed his set
tlement, cursed Mr.. Pow and dared
him to come on the outside. Mr..
Pow, who, though cripple, is fear
less to the core, went out, when the
man picked up rock, and was on
the point of throwing it when the
report of the pistol rang out. The
negro dropped the missile and walk
ed away to the lumber yard without
another word. He was seen suddenly
to fall to the ground and then it was
found that he had been shot in the
side. The wound is not regarded as
very serious.

Had to Yell.

Two women walking along one of
the business thoroughfares of New
York, heard a great shouting of "Ex-
try, extry," and looked about to see
where all the noise was coming from,
says an exchange.
Across the street they spied one
very small newsbcy shouting with all
his might.
One of the women, attracting the
boys attention, called him to her and
bought a paper; then, as she dropped
the pennies into the little fellow
hand she said:
"You mustn't make so much noise,
my little man; you can sell your pa
pers just as we'll without yelling so. y
For half a second the boy looked up
at her in surprise, the exclaimed:
"You don't understand, missus;
you've got to yell like hell to make a
living in New York"

NEGRO KILLED AT HOT SUPPER.
Merry Making in Aiken County Re-
Suits in Fatal Fracas.

Aiken, December 22.-Coroner
Johnson returned yesterday from
Jackson, where he went to hold an in
quest over the remains of Henry Dan
iels, who was shot and killed on
Saturday. Grant Sapp, another ne
gro, is charged with the killing. 1t
appears that on Saturday night "hot
supper" was going on at the house OF
Johnson Jones, near Jackson station.
About everybody got drunk, including
the killer and the killed. Shots were
fired right and left, and Sapp got one
in his leg.
A few minutes after Sapp accosted
Daniels and charged him with shoot
ing him in the leg. This Daniels
stoutly denied, and they clashed. Af-
ter being parted, Daniels went out of
the house, and just as he got out
side, shot was fired from within, from
the direction of Sapp, who denies that
he even had a pistol. Sapp is in jail.
There is more catarrh in this Sec
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be ip-
durable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be a
constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by F. ]. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio,
is the only constitutional cure on the
market. It is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful.
1t acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces Of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circu-
lars and testimonials. Address:

POLICEMAN ACCUSED OF THEFT
Magistrate Dismisses Case Against
New Brookland Officer.

New Brookland Officer.
Lexington, December pa case
without a parallel in the Court an
mails of this county, and probably
unique in this State, was disposed
of by Magistrate Thos. L. Harman
yesterday.
John Sturkie, chief of police of the
town of New Brookland, was given
preliminary hearing upon the
charge of stealing $500 from the
person of Mrs. John Lucas, of Swan
sea, on the night Of December 8.
The whole case seems to be
shrouded in mystery. On the night
in question Sturkie was on his re-
turn trip from Orangeburg, having
gone down on a horse-trading expe-
dition. He stopped over in Swansea
and spent the night with his nephew,
John Lucas. On he same dayt Mrs.
Lucas had received, it was alleged,
500 in settlement for a piece Of
property she had sold to George Will
liams. Mrs. Lucas, so it was stated,
sewed the money up in a small bag
and tied it around her waist next
to her body, beneath her other wear
ing apparel.
Early in the evening John Sturkie
arrived at the house. Sturkie and
Lucas slept together in a room ad-
joining that of Mrs. Lucas. Some
time during the night Mrs. Lucas
heard Sturkie tell her husband that
he wanted water, and Lucas directed
him to the pump: on the porch. Stur-
kie went out and remained about
three-quarters of an hour, according
to the statment of Mrs. Lucas, but
she thought there was nothing
strange in that. Strange as it SEEM
ed, Mrs. Lucas at that time had not
missed the money bag, but when her
husband and Sturkie arose in the
morning, she discovered that the bag
containing the treasure had been
clipped off next to her body and the
money was gone.
John Sturkie was in the house, but
could it be possible that he would
rob his neice of the money she had
secured from her. parents estate?
That seemed absurd to Lucas and
his wife at first, but later develop
ments caused suspicion to rest upon
him. In the stable, in which Stur-
kie's mule was kept, was found the
identical piece of paper in which the
money was wrapped, and this, it is
said, led to his arrest on Saturday.
At the preliminary yesterday, the
defendant was represented by Ex-
Senator Sharpe, T. G. Sturkie, F. E.
Dreher and w. W. Hawes, and Mrs.
Lucas underwent a most grilling ex-
animation by Mr.. Sharpe, who sought
to make it appear that the woman
knew where the money was. There
was absolutely nothing to show that
Sturkie had taken the money, except
the finding of the piece of paper in
the stable where his mule was kept
and the fact that he was the only
person in the house.
Magistrate Harman dismissed the
case in short order, and the mys-
terry remains deeper now than when
first it came to light.
The prosecution was represented
by County Superintendent of Educa'
| ton A. D. Martin.

DECIDED SNUB
FOR COMMITTEE
Attorney General BOnaparte
) Does Not Recognize Rights
of the Senate.

Washington, Jan. 21.-A highly de-
veloped order of unetuous courtesy is
being maintained between the senate
committee on judiciary and Attorney
General BonaDarte over the question
whether the attorney general shall ap-
pear before the committee to explain
the merger OF the Tennessee Coal &
Iron company and the United States
Steel corporation.
When the subcommittee having this
investigation in charge met today,
Senator Clark of wyoming, the chair
man, submitted a letter which he re-
ceived yesterday from Mr.. Bonaparte,
declaring the committees invitation to
appear today for the reason that he had
an engagement in the supreme court.
The committee solemnly agreed not to
make the letter public. The committee
also declined to authorize Mr. Bona
parte to publish the letter. even after
he had expressed willingness to do
so, although the committee decided that
it had no objection to the attorney. gen
upon his own authority
While members of the subcommittee
unanimously say that Mr.. Bonaparte' S
reply was the embodiment of courtesy.
1t is evident that it ignored the cordial
relations between the committee and
the department of justice 1t is mani
fest that the committee will not re-
ceive any aid from the White House CT
department of justice in pursuing its
inquiries.
