YOUNG WIFE KILLS HERSELF.
Mrs. Mary Parker Mack Commits
Suicide in Baltimore.

A special dispatch to The State
from Baltimore says; !
Mrs. Mary Parker Mack, wife of
DR.. Washington L. Mack, a promi-
pent physician Of Orangeburg, S, e,
committed suicide this afternoon by
drinking a quantity of carbolic acid
in her husbands laboratory, and
from an old bottle which she found
which bore the label of an Orange
burg pharmacy. The tragedy occur
red in the home at 4O14 Edmondson
avenue, which the husband had pur-
chased and presented to his wife ..,y
three weeks ago. DR.. Mack left Bal
timore for South Carolina the day
prior to the tragedy and was ap-
prised of the news through a tele-
gram sent him shortly after the dis
covery of the act. The coroner gave
a verdict of suicide.''
Dr. Mack is from Cardova and re-
moved to Baltimore sometime ago
to practice his profession. Mrs.
Mack was a native of Baltimore,
where she first met DR.. Mack when
he was attending medical lectures in
that city. They lived awhile in Or
angeburg, but returned to Cordovs,
where they lived awhile, and then
returned to Baltimore. They had NO
children, we believe. DR.. Mack has
the sympathy of his many friends in
this city and county in the great af-
fiction that has overcome him.

SHOOTING NEAR ELLOREE.
One Negro Kills Another in Quarrel
About Booze.

Joe Fairnott was shot and killed
by John Fogle, both colored, near
Oak Grove Colored Church, about
six miles below Elloree, at 2 o'clock
Sunday afternoon. 1t appears that
these, negroes had gathered, as has
been their custom to dispose of
whiskey to each other.
Fairnoft, the deceased, with anoth-
er negro, botght IL quarts of whts-
key to sell among the negroes, 1t is
said, and he was secluded in the edge
of a woods near the church ground,
when four negroes purchased quart,
and after imbibing freely, refused to
pay Cor she whiskey.
Fairnott seized Fogle. who was
unarmed, and told him if he did not
pay for the whiskey he would kill
him. Another negro standing near
by slipped a pistol in Fogle's hanL
and he fired upon Fairnott, the ball
striking him in the neck, seyering
the jugular vein.
Fairnott died before medical aid
could reach him. Magistrate T. M.
Fielder empanelled jury Sunday af-
ternoon and the verdict was render
ed in accordance with the above.
Fogle and the accessories to the
alleged crime were taken into GUS
tody by Magistrate Fielder and Mon
day lodged in the Orangeburg Jail.

Regrets 1t Very Much.

There has been some discussion
about a disturbance created in the
street in front of the Academy Of
Music on, Tuesday night while Nh.
Bryan was speaking by the grating
Of the running gears of an automo-
bile in which Postmaster Webster
and some others were riding. 1t was
thought that the noise was made for
the purpose of disturbing the speak
ing. Mr.. Webster assures us that
such was not the case, and that he
regrets the matter beyond expression.
He said the noise was caused by none
of those in the auto understanding
how to manage the machine, 1t being
different from any they had ever tried
to run. Had he known the noise was
disturbing those in the hall he would
not have tried to operate the ma
chine. We are satisfied that Mr..
Webster is perfectly sincere in his
statement, and that the matter is
exactly as he states. We make this
statement in justice to him. No one,
We are satisfied, regrets the occur
renee more than he does.

ANOTHER ELECTION WANTED.
Petition Presented the by Citizens of
North School District.

Another petition has been present
ed Superintendent Of Education L..
W. Livingston Of this county by. the
citizens of the North school district
asking for another special election to
decide whether or not an extra tax
levy is desired in that district for
school purposes. The second petit
tion is more generally signed than
the first one, and it goes to show
that the people of North school dis
trict are anxious to have their school
the best they can make it.
A few weeks ago an election was
held in this school district for the
levying of an extra tax for school
purposes. The tax levy was carried,
but protest was filed with the
county superintendent Of education
and county board of education. stat
ing that the election was illegally
held, that persons voted who were
disqualify under the law. After
going over the matter, sufficient evil
dence was produced to annul the
election. The second election will
be held at an early date.
There should be no opposition to
the levying of q reasonable tax for
the education of the children of any
community. In this day of progress
and enterprise. any community with
out a good school will be left Ii
the race for success. These elections
should be conducted fairly and hon
estly, as we cannot afford to cheat
or attempt to cheat one another in
them. North is one of the best
towns in the county, and to maintain
that position she must literally sup
port her school.

CHILDREN'S DAY.
Limestone Sunday School Fittingly
Observe the Occasion.

Observe the Occasion.
On Saturday last Limestone Sun
day School celebrated Chjldren's Day
at Limestone, Church, about 10 miles
above the city of Orangeburg. It
was about fifteen years since the
writer had visited that section, and
he was hardly prepared for the agree
able surprises in store for him by
reason Of the wonderful progress
made during that period. No one
can visit that community without be-
ing interested and instructed.
The good people show every indi-
cation of thrift and enterprise; the
farms are in fine condition, the pref
tiest cotton we have seen in many
years, but the corn is suffering bad
ly, though with early showers large
yield of corn will be harvested. Much
interest is manifested in education.
Many young people from that vicin-
ity attend college, and the children
are bright, healthy and promising.
The program issued by the Pub
fishing House was used, and the
writer does not exaggerate when he
says that, in his opinion, it was the
best program and better carried out
than he has yet seen. All the pieces
were gems, and even the smalles,
child rendered it's part with much
credit, and the large audience was
delighted. Certainly, with such bright
prospects, the people of that COM
munity will be held to a high degree
of responsibility, and Limestone
Church has most flattering future.
After the exercises, the writer
made few remarks, impressing upon
parents and teachers the Importance
OF bringing up the children in the
nurture and admonition of the Lord.
and that now the twig could be bent
as desired, but later, perhaps, they
would be beyond the recall of hope
and mercy; and upon the children the
fact that nothing can take the place
Of Jesus in their sweet, innocent lit
tie hearts, and that they should give
their hearts to Him now. A credita-
BILE sum was raised for Sunday School
and Mission purposes. A new church
has been recently built, painted and
we'll appointed.
The hospitality of the good people
there is proverbial. After sumpu-
GUS dinner, the young folks played
about the church yard, while older
persons gathered in groups and for
some time enjoyed that fellowship
which comes from communion of kin
dred spirits. The faithful Superin-
tendent, Mr.. E. H. Houser, may just
ly feel proud of the noble work being
done by him and his able corps Of
teachers. A. W. Summers.
