in Attempt to Escape.
Theodore Olander, a prisoner who
was being taken from the Minneapolis
city jail to police court, stabbed six
men, officers and prisoners, and was

legs in a desperate effort to escape.
Officers did not know that Olander
had a knife, though he had been
searched at the police station With.
out warning he pulled away from his
captors and welded the weapon with
deadly effect on everybody around.
Jailer Howard Gerrish pulled his
gun and peppered Olander's feet and
legs and the knife was taken from
him after he had fallen. He was
taken to the city hospital. Those in
Jured by his thrllsts are:
Nicholas Smith, captain of detec-

FIND SKELETONS IN A CAVE
Young Women Discover Evidence Of
Double Murder.

Young Women Discover Evidence OF
Double Murder.
Mute evidence of a double murder
on the lonely shores of Isle Royal was
discovered at Siskiwit bay. Two wo.
men, trained nurses, were walking on
the shore of the bay when they dis
covered a little cave about 200 yards
from the shore line. On investigating
the cave they found the skeletons of
two men.
Their training enabled the young
women to examine the gruesome find,
and they state positively that the men
could not have crawled into the posi-
ton in which they were lying, but
must have been pushed in there after
being killed. The skull of one of the
men had been fractured by a blow
from some blunt instrument.

sOuTH CAROLINA NEWS.

- Chester Reporter: Will Cherry,
the negro who shot Louisiana Barnes
on the plantation Of Mr.. J. T. McFad-
den north Of Fort Lawn last Tuesday
evening, inflicting a wound from which
the woman died the following day, has
fed and having had such a good
start on the authorities will have a
fine opportunity to get away. From
what was brought out at the inquest
1t seems that the shooting was alto
gether without cause. There had been
a quarrel, and Cherry, 1t seems, had
endeavored to shoot another negro
man, a crime that he was kept from
committing only by reason Of the fact
that his revolver snapped. He next
turned his weapon on the woman and
asked her If she didn't believe he
would shoot her He suited the action
to the word and fired, the bullet strik-
ing the victim in the throat. Cherry
then threw his pistol behind the door
and fed. The deceased worked on
the farm Of Mr.. McFadden and was a
good and trusted hand.

THE ROADS,.

Although it is a fact that there was
more good work done on the public
roads last summer than during any
previous summer of the past ten, and
it Is fair to say that some Of the roads
got more work last summer than they
had gotten altogether during ten sum-
mers previous, with the coming of the
winter rains and freezes, the people
are again confronted with the question,
what has been the good Of it all?'
1t Is not to be denied that some of the
roads have been improved: but in the
case of most of them. the improvement
the permanent improvements so
slight, as to leave ground for more or
less argument.
What Is known as the Pinckney
road out of Yorkville, Is in its usual
horrible condition at this season, the
Chester road is no better, and to be

From the present outlook, 1t is go
ing to take a comparatively small
number of new names to carry off that
ten dollars we are going to give away
on the last day Of February.
We do not speak with authority,
it Is only a matter of supposition. But
we think the probability Is that when
the c. C. & o. begins to carry all the
coal 1t has up in the mountains Of
Tennessee and Virginia to Charleston,
much of it will have to pass through
Yorkville, and before a great while,
the Marion and Kingville division OF
the Southern will become vastly more
than it now is.
There should be a fund of, at least,
one hundred dollars for the encour-
agement of the members Of the Boys
Corn club of York county, and broad
and liberal business men Will put this
fund up without unnecessary delay.
The fund, of course, will have to be
raised by subscriptions, and while cash
will be acceptable up to the 500 limit.

BOYS CORN CLUB.

The York County Boys Corn club is

ing in the court house at Yorkville last
Saturday morning, and unless tine in
dications at the meeting and the signs
Of the times are unusually deceiving,
this club will be heard from quite fire.
ouently during the next twelve months,
and probably during the years to come.
The readers Of The Enquirer, are or
ought to be, pretty familiar with the
scope and purpose of the corn club.
There has been a lot Of explanatory
matter on the subject of late in the
miscellaneous columns, and also some
interesting stories in the news col
umns, but even with this, we fear that
there Is no general appreciation OF
what the movement really means.
Although Mr.. o. B. Martin has gen.
eral charge of the boys work in the

demonstration agent, has been giving 1t
az much time as he has been able to

The Asylum.

The free conference bill passed in
free conference during tine closing
hours of the general assembly, was
probably the best that was to have
been expected under the circumstances.
AS we have seen proper to remark
before, the report of the committee
that has been looking into the affairs
of the asylum during the past year,
was one of the most painstaking and
thoroughgoing of which we have any
knowledge in the history of the state.
The recommendations of the major
ity too, we think, were made straight
from the shoulder, without fear or fa
vor and with an eye single to what
the men who signed that report con-
sidered to be for the highest honor and
credit Of the people of South Carolina,
in properly looking after those of their
unfortunate children, who can only be
looked after in an insane asylum.
That the general assembly was un-
willing to adopt the full report of the
majority at once Is natural. In the
first place, it would be unreasonable to
expect such a large body to be able to
fully comprehend within two or three
weeks all that had been gathered by
an earnest, intelligent and fearless
committee in a year, and in the sec
ond place there was necessarily more
or less political opposition to the COM
plete and radical changes that were
recommended. However, the commit
tee has more cause to congratulate it
self on having gotten as much as it
has gotten, than it has to feel regret
that it has gotten no more.
It is creditablc to the people Of
South Carolina that they are spending
as much money as they are spending
in looking after their insane. 1t is
creditable Notwithstanding the fact
that they are doing no more than their
duty If they are not doing their full
duty. and they are not, we believe 1t
is only because they are not well
enough informed as to existing condi
tions. The average citizen of South
Carolina is not even aware that the
state is undertaking to look after
more tnan fifteen hundred unfortu-

Chester Reporter: Deputy Sheriff
w. G. Dye went down to Wellridge
this morning to investigate the nays
terious disappearance Of George
Hemphill, colored, several weeks ago.
Hemphill, who was running farm on
Mr.. ]. NJ. CaldwelPs place, disappear
ed strangely, and while there are no
Indications to urge foul play, his fail
ure to show himself is causing a lot
of comment and wonder. One evening
several weeks ago, after coming to the
house after a hard days plowing, he
went out to feed his stock, and has
never been seen since. He seemed In
his customary frame Of mind, and his
wife noticed nothing unusual about
his appearance or demeanor. He told
her that he was going out to look af-
ter the stock, and she proceeded with
the evening meal, naturally expecting
him back in few minutes. He fall
ed to come, however, and the most
careful search and inquiry have failed
to bring any information about his
whereabouts. Magistrate J. r. p.
Gibson and others were expected to
meet Mr.. Dye at Wellridge, and will
take part in the inquiry.

At present the college Is without a

for nearly II years. The trustees met

enter into negotiations with him, the
action Of the committee, in the event
of a choice, to be ratified by the full

derstood the committee was unani-

that other trustees who have been
consulted are enthusiastic over the
hope of his acceptance. Mr.. Brice Is
a man of solid attainments in educa-
ton, but Is better known for his bus
iness talent, legal acumen and execu-
tive ability He is son Of the Rev.

mates, and not more than one in a
hundred of our more intelligent people
have ever had 1t brought to their at
tention that the state is not doing all
that it is pretending to do in this d.
rection as well as any other state does
1t, or can do it.
The report of the special investigat-

eye opener along this line, as is evil
denced by the 100000 appropriation
that has been agreed upon; but now
that the subject has been fairly open

the people Of the state will not stop
until they have disposed Of the whole
matter as it should be disposed of, and
before they are done with 1t, they will
go the full length indicated by the in

and probably still further in the same
direction.
