fig leaf on which she had embroid-

"Oh," Adam replied, lets have

Posse Searching for Negro-TrOuble
Feared-W. w. All Seriously
Wounded.

Branchville, May 4.-W. W. All, a
prominent young merchant Of this
place, was shot and seriously wounded
tonight by Noon Evans, a negro rail-
road hand. The negro escaped and a
large posse of men are seeking him
and if he is captured, it is believed
further trouble will result.
It is understood that the shooting
was the result of quarrel over debt
owed by the negro to Mr.. All. Evans
bore the reputation of quarrelsome
negro, especially when drinking, and
he was drinking tonight. He passed
Mr.. ALPS store and Mr.. All asked him
for the money; Evans replied roughly
and Mr.. All walked after him, where
upon the negro drew pistol and fired
FIVE times, only the last shot taking
effect, entering the left side about two
inches below the heart, and passing
through the body.
1t is feared that the wound may
prove fatal, although the surgeons are
unable to determine the result as yet.

CIV. It. C. in Laurensville Herald).
In 1868, SO soon after the war, the
negroes of course, could not read,
therefore the election ticket-that is
the Republican ticket had to have
some kind of an emblem on it, so that
the negroes could distinguish between
the Republican and the Democratic
ticket. AS a further precaution, the
Republican ticket was also printed
with red ink. At this time Col. T. B.
Crews was running hack line be-
tween Laurens and Newberry, and the
driver was a negro. man named Bunch
Darlington. On Saturday night before
the election, Bunch had brought up
with him the election tickets for the
negroes, and somehow or other few
of the tickets had slipped out of the
package and dropped On the floor of
the hack, where, on Sunday morning
Col. Crews found them. He immed-
lately sent for all the printer boys, :"
and after a conference with some of
our leading men of the day, it was de-
cided to counterfeit the Republican
ticket if possible. But where were
they to get a picture of the eagle? 1t
was easy enough to print the ticket
with red ink, but how and where they
would get an eagle was the question.
Finally, the difficulty was solved by
"one of the boys" mentioning the fact
that there was an old Dowie & Noise
druggist cut in the office with an eagle
on it, and possibly they might saw the
eagle off and get cut that way. This
plan was adopted and the eagle secured
and put at the head Of the Democratic
ticket which was printed with red ink,
and the next difficulty now was how
