Camden, June 16.-Seaboard Air
Line train third No. 8, a through veg

cars. was derailed near Lugoff, some
four miles from Camden, this after
noon about 1 o'clock. The thirteen
cars were thrown into the ditch along
side the track and seven were destroy

1t appears that the arch bar of the
first car broke and catching the frog

sixty men are at work clearing the

FIRST COLORED POSTMASTER.
Inscription on Tomb Recalls Recon-
strutciOn Days.

A casual visit to Walker Cemtery
several days ago recalled Reconstruc-
ton days, for on a tombstone, mark
ing the grave of Henry J. Maxwell,
who was in his day a prominent poll
tician and a man of considerable
means was the inscription:
Hon. H. ]. Maxwell; Born on Edi-
sto Island May 8, 1887; died August
26, 1906. Senator from Marlboro
County. 1867 to 1874. The First Col
ored Postmaster Appointed in the
United States.''
Henry Maxwell was the father Of
DR.. G. w. Maxwell, a prosperous ne
gro physician of Sumter. He also
left several daughters, all of whom
are we'll educated.
The inscription reminiscent of Re-
construction days recalls the expert
ence a certain member of the legis-
lature had a few years ago. He was
coming down to Columbia for his
first session and was somewhat excit-
ed over the prospect. The hackman
who drove him to the station remark
ed, II know just how you feel, boss.

ed out that the hackman had really

This country looks very much like
ours, and the people are just like those
at home. Cordele Is a beautiful
place. but way behind Sumter in
streets and civic beauty. This town
built splendid court house, Jail and
school building for the purpose of be-
coming the county seat and for that
they bonded to the limit.
1 was surprised Saturday afternoon
when l saw SO few people on the
streets. Upon inquiry 1 found that
the citizens here are very busy people
and have no time to loaf.
| would not recommend this rail
road trip as one for pleasure. One
can go from Sumter to Chicago or
New Orleans quicker than he could
make the trip here.
l found all the way down that there
is a good deal of attention given to
religion. l had to stop over in Angus
ia. and found there what the circus
men call a three ring tent with re-
ligious services going on. At Macon
there was another stop over and there
we found another huge tent in which
gospel meeting was being conducted,

another one. All around us we hear
