told him NO"
And naturally. he asked her why she
wouldn't marry him. Men always do
that. Az II woman could have a

that a woman's "No" IL merely a pre-.

TO- be interested in the matter,
Also, when q NAH gets the proposal

So Hiram grew to going around to

Artful Hiram! He knew what pity
is akin to. Having failed of all othe,
avenues to her heart, he was takins
the pity route. The 14-pound turkey
was fiction; SO were the pork chops,
Had Lucy exercised her memory she
would have recalled that Hiram al
ways went to visit his Aunt Sarah
over Thanksgiving. But she could
think Of only the one thing. 80 she
said:
Hiram. I'll come up to your house
Thursday morning and bake that tur

Lucy couldn't have done thing like
that where you and live. That would
have been scandalous. But In MIL

Train Almost Wrecked.

Aiken, August ia near-wreck
of dangerous proportions occurred a
day of two ago, on the Edgefeld-
Aiken railroad, according to reports
received here. At PAGES trestle, on
this line, the mixed passenger and
freight train was running at full
speed. Two cars of coal were next
to the engine. AS the train was near
ing the trestle, brakes were put on to
slow the train down. The heavy coal
cars refused to stop, and the wheels
began bucking, with the result that
the front wheels of one Of the cars
jumped the track on the trestle sew
eral feet from the creek below.
The engineer, seeing the plight in
which his train was getting and the
serious result likely, put on full speed
and jerked loose from the car that
had jumped the track. The coupl-
ing pin was broken, and the engine
went on to safety, while the coal car
was stopped Immediately. The rear
coal car did not get off the track and
the passenger coaches remained in
tact.
The foresight of the engineer pos
sibly saved many lives, as there
would have been serious results had
the train fallen from the trestle.

NEW FOREIGN LOCOMOTIVE.
Carries, Turbine, Dynamo and Motor
Will Pull Express Trains.

Glasgow, August ia remark
able railway engine, with a saloon
hitched on, has just made a very
successful run from this city to Cart
sherrie, on the Caledonian and North
British railways. The locomotive
consists of three seperate parts-a
steam turbine, a dynamo for general
ing electricity, and electric motors
for the actual driving.
The boiler is fixed at one end of
the engine, which is very long one;
the generator is situated in the cen
ter, and consists of Zoelly steam
turbine working at 5000 revolutions
per minute, directly coupled to the
dynamo, which supplies the electric
current to four motors; these motors
give a direct drive to four sets OF
heavy driving wheels. The nominal
power of the locomotive is 1000
horse, and considerable economy in
fuel is anticipated.
All the advantages of an electric
engine are obtained without recourse
to external wires, and it can there
fore travel over any lines. The ex-
haust steam is also condensed, so that
very long run could be made. The
current. of air which passes through
the cooler for the condensed steam is
driven by fan to the furnace of the
boiler, which is thus under forced
draught.
Extraordinary ingenuity has in fact
been displayed in order to make the
greatest use of every possible feature
to increase the efficiency of the en-
CINE. The new locomotive is now
having the finishing touches applied,
preparatory to being exhaustively
tested at pulling heavy express
trains

KILLING NEAR BOWMAN.
Charles Dwight, Negro, Shoots His
Wife.

News of a killing in the Bowman
section Of Orangeburg county was
telephoned to the governors Office
yesterday afternoon with request
that bloodhounds be sent to the scene.
All the information that could be OBJ
obtained by Mr.. Bethea was that
Charles Dwight, colored, shot and
instantly killed his wife, Lucy
Dwight, while she was working in
the field yesterday morning about
1890 o'clock.
The information was 'phoned to
the governors Office by E. N. Mittle,
cashier of the Bowman bank, who
stated that, as far as he could learn,
the act was without provocation.
Three shots were fired by Dwight,
who said not word as he approach
ed his wife and fired. Two Of the
shots taking effect, the woman died
instantly. No motive for the killing
is known.
Immediately after shooting Dwight
made his escape from Bowman.
Mr.. Mittle asked Mr.. Bethea to
send bloodhounds from the State
prison. The penitentiry authorities
were asked for the bloodhounds but
the dogs were about eight miles in
the country where some convicts
were cutting wood for the prison.
The hounds could not be secured
soon enough to do any good at Bow
man so they will not be sent.-Co-
lumbia State, August 16.
