MET FEARFUL FATE.
Little Two Year Old Girl Falls in
Burning Oil.

The Columbia State says Gertrude
Isabel, the two-year-old daughter OF
G. G. Ohmig, died Sunday as re-
suit of burns sustained Saturday al
ternoon by accidentally falling into
q tub Of hot cooking oil. Mr.. Och
mig, baker, was absent from home
at the time and the oil was for use
in the preparation of doughnuts. Inc
child in some manner escaped the
vigilance of the family and wandered
to the spot where the oil had been
placed. The child's back and limbs
were severely scalded. DR.. DuBose
was hastily summoned and the lit
tie child's suffering alleviated for the
time, but medical skill proved un-
ayailing, the burns covering so large
q portion of the body and being OF
SO severe a nature.

Engine Destroyed.

Bishopville, May 26.-An unusual
accident happened at Elliott on the
Atlantic Coast Line railroad Monday
evening about eight o'clock as the
train for Lucknow was about to pull
out from that station. The engine
boiler exploded with the engineer and
fireman on the cab, completely de-
molishing the engine, and yet not ef-
fecting the engineer or fireman at all.
No harm was done except to the en-
CINE, which was torn up. Owing to
the explosion, the train for Lucknow
did not arrive here, until after II
O'Clock in the evening, when it should
have reached this point at s. An en-
CINE was sent from Florence to take
the place of the one destroyed.

Two Prominent Aiken Citizens Will
Have to Face a Serious Charge.

Acting upon the instructions of

we'll known in Aiken, charging them
with perjury 1t is charged that in

partment that there had been fight
in the store of Mr.. Bates and thatjhe
and Ben Cochran had separated the
combatants, but when the trial came
off Wednesday both swore that moth
ing of the kind had happend.
AS the reports to the police de-
partment went to show in all prob

these men were not telling actual
facts, Mayor Salley called meeting

case under advisement. AS result

Was Avant Hired to XIII?

A special to the News and Courier
from Georgetown says:
An astonishing report is being cir
culated here bearing on the mystery
of the killing of Mrs. Ruth Crisp Big
ham at Murrell's Inlet last Septem-
Der. A statement is said to have been
made by relative of Avant to the
effect that Avant conf1ded to him a
short time ago that the killing of
Mrs. Bigham was deliberate act on
his part; that he was hired by Big
ham to murder Bigham's wife and ex-
pected to be paid we'll for the deel.
Avant is said to have stated that
as he fired the fatal load into the
back of the unsuspecting victim,
tears of pity were flowing from his
eyes. That such a statement has
been made by Avant's relative is au-
thoritatively announced.

Rob JONES DISAPPOINTED.
Remains in Prison Until September,
Under Superintendent's Ruling.

Columbia, May 27.-Bob Jones
will not leave the State Penitentiary
before September IS, unless he is
pardoned or paroled by Governor
Ansel.
Capt. D. J. Griffin, the superintend-
ent of the Penitentiary, has ruled
that Jones's sentence did not expire
until September.
Bob Jones was convicted for the
murder of the three Pressleys in
Edgefeld County, and has been at
the State Penitentiary for over twen-
ty years.
There is a rule at the Penitentiary
which allows a prisoner one month
off for each year during good beha-
v;or. Jones was sentenced to serve
twenty-five years in the Penitentiary.
The trial Judge deducted the four
years from the sentence which Jones
spent in the Edgefield County jail
during the trials and the subsequent
appeals to the Supreme Court.
1t was the contention of Bob Jones
that he would leave the Penitentiary
on May 1S, and that the one month
that he is entitled to because of
good behavior would be deducted
from the four years spent in the
Edgefeld Jail. Superintendent Crit
fin has taken different view of the
situation, and has concluded that one
month should not be deducted from
the Edgefeld term, as Jones was not
at that time a prisoner at the Peni-
tentiary
Bob Jones was disappointed when
he found that he would not leave the
prison on May IS. Preparations had
been made for his reception in Au-
gusta. Upon leaving prison he will
settle near the little town of Har-
lem, in Richmond County.

Don't Cut the Roots of the Crop

Don't Cut the Roots of the Crop.
MIR. Miller says that farmers should
study the processes of plant growth
in using fertilizers, and would also
saw In the cultivation Of the crop.
When a man iully understands that
the only part of the roots OF the
corn or cotton plants that are get
ting food from the soil is the little
zone of fine root hairs near the ex-
treme tips of the roots, which at
.laying-by time are well across the
rows, he will never put a ploW IN
there to tear them off and deprive
the plant of the food those root hairs
would have gotten for him, but will
cultivate the crop as level and shall
low az possible to avoid injuring the
roots. Every big root of the corn or
cotton you cut of deprives the plant
OF millions of feeding hairs out at
the extremity of that root. And yet,
/ have seen many a man coming out
of a corn row with his plow almost
choked with the roots he had torn
of, and thinking he had done good
work. in laying-by that corn with a
big ridge, when he had really short
ened the crop.-Progressive Farmer.

Cases Against Goodman Dropped.

Columbia, May 27.-An unsuspect-
ed turn which throws an interesting
light on the dispensary graft trials
was taken this morning in the Rich
land county court when Solicitor
Cobb announced that two cases
against Morton A. Goodman, liquor
drummer, had been mol pressed by
order of Attorney General Lyon. AS
sistant Attorney Gen. Debruhl went
to the Richland county court house
with an order from the attorney gen.
eral that the cases be nol-prossed.
After a short conference it was an
nounced in open court that the
charges against Goodman had been
withdrawn. Morton A. Goodman was
charged together with members OF
the directorate OF the old State dis
pensary with conspiracy to cheat and
defraud the State of South Carolina
out of thousands of dollars. 1t was
he who when wanted as an important
witness in the graft trials here last
fall disappeared-that is, at least he
could not be found at his home and
was counted "non-est" by the court.
It was thought that he would be able
to give valuable testimony for the
prosecution as he was closely con-
nected with the members of the
board of control in number of
transactions.
Goodman was indicted under in
dictments number 81 and 81. His
name was erased from these. The
first indictment charged him with
conspiracy together with Jodie M.
Rawlinson, Joseph B. Mylie, John
Black, James S. Farnum, John T..
Early and H. Lee Solomon. All Of
these were members of the board Of
control with the exception of Early,
Solomon and Farnum.

What Weekly Journalism Offers.

This paragraph is from a newspa-
per that has earned the right to
speak on such subjects, The Bamberg
Herald:
"The editorial from The State
which we publish in another column
is exactly along the right line. Too
many so-called newspapers have no
reason or right to exist, and the soon-
er the newspaper fraternity takes
definite and positive action in regard
to such sheets the better it will be
for the newspapers which cost time
and money to publish. We commend
the consideration of this subject to
our brethren at the annual meeting
soon to assemble at Glenn Springs" "
Printed in the smallest county in
South Carolina, in town of about
$500 or 5000 inhabitants, and with
competition The Bamberg Herald,
having made a modest beginning in
1891, has come to be model county
newspaper of eight pages and 4S COL
umns, every line of which is home
set. Its press work is delight to
the eye, it prints all the news ofdts
field, it's editorial utterances are clear
and pointed and in makeup it is an
example of what good taste and in
dustry will prove.
These remarks are not intended,
primarily, as a compliment to The
Bamberg Herald but to direct atten-
ton to what journalism offers to
young men of the right stamp in
South Carolina. There is scarcely a
county in South Carolina that could
not and would not support news
paper of the excellence of The Bam-
berg Herald and if each county had
such a weekly newspaper the press OF
the State would be superior to that
of any other American common
wealth.-Columbia State.

 A decided orange color is popular in sunnner frabrics Other colors which are meeting with greait favor are sal mon and a yellowish shade, called banana tint.
