Kills His Stepfather-in-Law.

Orangeburg, Nov. 4.-As the re-
suit, it is said, of contentious of long
standing, Caesar Holman shot and
killed his stepfather-in-law, j. H.
Compton, in the fork section of the
county this morning. Both parties
are prominent white farmers. 1t is
said that Compton began the trouble
by going to the residence of Holman
and assaulting him with a gun
whereupon Holman, who had, sue
ceeded in sheltering himself from the
attack of Compton, fired upon the lat
ter with a shotgun, inflictlng a
wound which was almost instantly
fatal.
1t is understood that lawsuit has
been pending for some time, which
was bought by one of these men
against the other. Upon hearing OF
the shooting, officers were sent by the
sheriff to arrest Holman, but before
they had gone far, they met him COM
ing to Orangeburg to surrender.

EXPELLED FROM SOUTH.
White SLAYER Driven from Atlanta
and Then from United States.

A dispatch from Atlanta on FRIDAY
saws: Armand Lajarries, a Frencn
white-slave trader, who was arrested
and put in the Fulton county jail the
same day he was released from the
federal prison in Atlanta, Will enjoy
the ignominious distinction of being
the only white man who has ever
been deported from the United States
from the South.
He was rearrested for the special
nurpose of having him deported, and
has been sent to New York under
guard to be put on shipboard, and
will never be permitted to return to
this country.
His crime was the importation OF
voung French girls under the false
pretense that he would provide them
nositions as mattresses. He operated
with offices both in New York and
Chicago.
The only signs of his former pros
perity are a gold-headed cane and a
ieweled cigarette case, which he
has kept through all his jail expert
ences.

Allendale, Oct. 31.-Miss Ruth
Myrick, the 16-year-old daughter of
Mr.. B. R. Myrick, of this place, was

ger train, and both of her legs sew
cred from the body, and as a result
of the accident died few hours
later.
1t seems that Miss Myrick was
walking on the track in front of her
home, and in her effort to free her
self of danger from the approaching
train, stumbled and was caught be-
meath the wheels before the engineer
could stop his train.

young girl, just budding into woman

Sounded Like Him.

They tell a story out my way
about a Kansan who, in the old days
when Mark Hanna was prominent
went to church, took his seat in a
rear pew and went to sleep. When
he woke up he awoke with a start'
and he must have thought himself
at a political meeting.
The minister had just thundered:
"To Him that hath shall be given
and to him that hath not shall be
taken away even that which he
hath"
who said that?" asked the be-
wildered politician who had just
awakened.
The minister stopped, looked at
the sleepy interrupter and then said
laconically MARK"
"Well,'' said the politician, lit
sounds like Hanna. Judge.

A Catastrophe.

A woman in one of the wards III
the Rhode Island hospital was in
formed she had appendicitis and
would have to be operated on at
once. says Macks National Monthly.
Much frightened, she reluctantly
consented, and was conveyed to the
operating room. One of the doctors
had commenced to administer the
ether and her eyes were closing
languidly when he discovered he had
forgotten to inquire if she had false
teeth. He quickly removed the ruo-
Der cap and, shaking her slightly ne
said: Have you anything loose III
YOUR mouth?" Then, as he made a
move to put his hand in her moutn'
she opened her eyes wildly and ex-
claimed:
Nothing but my tongue, DOCTOR
and for Gods sake, don't cut that
out, too.'

DISASTROUS FIRE AT LAKE CITY
Property in Tobacco District Valued
at Over $4,000 Destroyed.

Lake City, Nov. 4.-Fire, break
ing out in the two-story> prize house
owned and occupied by L. A. Wins
ton, about 2 o'clock this morning, for
a time threatened the destruction of
the entire tobacco district, and, in
fact, the entire business section. The
flames quickly spread to the new
Farmers Warehouse, owned by DR..
NJ. D. Nesmith, and operated last
season by J. D. King & Co., and
within a few minutes the entire
building, which is, perhaps, the
largest building in town, was in a
blaze. These two buildings were.
with their contents, completely de-
stroyed, the former valued at about
$4,000, with $500 insurance, and
the latter valued at about $1,000,
with $4,000 insurance. By hard
work of the bucket brigade the three
residences just across the street
from the large warehouse, owned by
R. H. King, Mrs. D. D. Carter and
DR.. Nesmith, were prevented from
catching, but about the time the
danger was thought to be over, some
passers-by noticed the roof of the
store building in the heart of the
business section, occupied by j.
Khetter, to be ablaze, but this was
quickly put out.
The Winston Prizery, besides Of
flee and warehouse fixtures, contain
ed eleven bales of cotton, partly COW
cred by insurance, and some hundred
or more bushels of cotton seed, to-
gether with lot of furniture.
In the Farmers Warehouse were
stored lot of new pianos, belonging
to the Jones-Weatherly Piano Com
pany, and some new organs, the prop
erty of the Bishopville Music Com
pany, all of which were burned.
This town has been remarkably
fortunate in escaping fires of any
kind, and particularly in it's tobacco
property, which is regarded by in
surance companies as very hazard
