Smothered by Cotton Seed.

Darlington, Dec. 30.-Tuesday
night while at work at the plant of
the Southern Cotton Oil company
here, R. Richardson, negro, 1S
years of age, met death under a fall
ing pile of cotton seed. He was
feeding the seed to another part: of
the mill. The pile of seed was about
IS feet in height.
The first alarm given was when
the seed stopped coming into the
mill. Upon investigation it was
found that the large pile had fallen
about the spot where the negro stood
at work. In few minutes his body
was located and every effort possible
was made to get him out and save his
life. All hands we're called from
their work and digging went on for
about ten minutes, but when his
body was reached life was gone.
The negro had special orders, it is
stated, not to interfere with the seed
he was feeding, and but for this dis
obedience the accident would not
have happened. He was an expert
enced hand.
