was arrested, together with Elliott
Jackson, for the offense.
The theft was discovered Monday

the wagons and searching for the
guilty parties. That morning when
the arrests We're made there were
seven Of the sacks of soda in the
house Of one of the negroes. The
other part was supposed to have been
sold or otherwise disposed Of. Sns-

made things merry as they went

jokes and having a general good
time of it. Arriving at the pond the
boys got busy on the fish which were

MIR. GEO. BRUNER HURT.

Tuesday afternoon at Darlington
Mr.. Geo. p. Bruner, formerly of this
city but now of Florence, was hurt
internally when the coach in which
he and several others were riding, was
overturned.
1t is not known positively how the
accident occurred, but it was stated
that the coach in which Mr.. Bruner
was riding was in the rear of the
train and was overturned when it
was being switched to another track.
Mr.. Bruner was knocked unconsci :
Gus and was still unconscious when
taken from the coach and placed in
an automobile and hurried to Flor
ence. At Florence it was sometime
before he regained consciousness.
No bruises were found on him, but
1t seems that he was hurt somewhere
about the lungs, and any touch on
this part Of the body was extremely
painful and although he was able to
to get up he was obliged to move
about very slowly.
The doctor was unable to say eX-
actly what the trouble was as it was
wholly internal and it is not known
how serious the injury may be.

Bennettsville. May 10.-William
Jackson and Tom Woodard, two me-
groes. killed each other near the
Keystone Lumber Company's plant,
In the lower part of the county, last
night. 1t seems that the two negroes
were at negro celebration or party
and got into a dispute. Woodard used
a pistol and Jackson a gun.
NO one else has been implicated
and the death of both negroes ap-
parently ends the entire matter.
