Two Buildings Destroyed.

Eberhardt, June 30.-During an
electrical storm on Sunday morning
about 2:3O o'clock lightning struck
and fire resulting therefrom destroyed
two buildings within the town and
completely destroyed them.
The first building that was struck
was a smokehouse belonging to ar
thur Kearse. This fire had hardly
died down when lightning again struck
a big barn owned by H. c. Copeland.
There was no live stock in the barn
at the time of the fire.
A quantity of stock food contained
in the barn was consumed. No in
surance was carried On either Of the
two buildings.

Bow Loses Life in Plckens Storm.

Pickens, June 30.-Demus Cant, the
16-year-old son of John Cant of the
Pickens mill village, was killed and
Homer Davis wos knocked senseless
and seriously injured yesterday even
ing during a thunderstorm which
visited this section. The boys were
coming into town just as the cloud
was nearly up and thinking that they
could get home before the rain, began
to run, and running near the home OF
Craig Baker the fatal bolt came.
The Cant boy was killed outright
and the Davis boy knocked uncon-
scious. Before any one reached the2
the Davis boy had regained conscious
ness and was trying to get to the Cant
boy and extinguish the fire that had
been kindled by the lightning, but
was unable to do it for he had no
use of his limbs at the time. The
Davis boy will probably recover.
For the last week Pickens has been
visited by three severe electrical
storms. Last Sunday evening Judge
Newberry's house was struck and the
family severely shocked. Tuesday
evening nearly all the telephones and
electric lights were put out of COM
mission, and yesterday evening Chief
Nealy's house was struck and stove

P. O. E., in a few we'll chosen remarks
thanked the people of Newberry for
their support of the chautauqua.
He was followed by Mr.. E. A. Pound,
platform manager, who made public
acknowledgment of the kindnesses
extended to the members of the chau-
tauqua and especially TO Col. E. H.
Aull, E. S. Blease, Esq, and Col.

AS previously stated, plans are al
ready on foot to make the chautauqua
a permanent event in the social and
Intellectual life of NeWberry, and,
with the same class of artists who ap-
peared her during the past week, there
is every reason to believe that it will
in the future be brilliant success
from every view point-including fl

A Deserved Tribute.
Bamberg Herald.

Bamberg Herald.
That was fine tribute paid Col.
E. H. Aull, editor of the Newberry
Herald and News, by Mr.. Greneker
last week, written and printed dur
ing Col. Aull's absence at the press
association meeting. But it was de-
served. Mr.. Greneker wonders at
the defeat Of Col. Aull as county su-
perintendent of education, and it is
to be wondered at We may be par
doned for saying that we brought up
the same subject with our friend last
week and we said to him that New
berry county, and the cause of educa-
ton were the losers, not him, for we
imagine that it cost him considerably
more than he got out of it. By the
way, Col. Aull would make a fine
State superintendent of education.

Purpose to the various encampments
this summer. They will have subsis-
tence while there paid under similar
conditions. The companies which
passed the last inspection will have
their pay paid under similar condi-

companies will be given another op-
portunity to measure up to the test,
at an inspection to be held at least
three months froh this date. If at that

then receive their retained pay"
This is all l have been asking, and
it is entirely satisfactory to me.

This organization can accomplish
a great deal for Newberry college and
for the cause of Christian education if
it is conducted along the right lines,
as no doubt it will be. It's object
should be what it claims to be-and
nothing else. If it keeps in the mid
die of the road and works for the col
lege, it will be an organization of
which the institution may well be
proud

WOMAN IS KILLED;
FIVE MEN JAILED
Matte Grayney Shot and Her Daugh'
ter Beaten.-Lee County Ira
gedy.

Bishopville, July 1.-Charged with
shooting up the home of Wylie Gray
ney and killing Matte Grayney and
seriously injuring her daughter, Liz
zie Grayney, five young white men
were brought to Bishopville TO-
day and lodged in jail. They are:
q. A. Grantham, Cloy Grantham, Nick
Grantham, Brown Grantham and
Vance Grantham, sons Of Zin Gran
than, resident of Darlington county.
Matte Grayney, according to the cor
oner's jury, came to her death at the
hands of the five Grantham boys. The
boys, it is charged, first told the wo-
men to leave and when they refused
proceeded to shoot up the house oc-
cupied by the Grayneys.
The story of the tragedy, which oc-
Cured in the Kelleytown section of
this county, remote and lawless dis
trict, seems to be interviewer with al
legged relations between Matte Gray
ney and Tin Grantham.
The five sons of Zin Grantham, it
is alleged, took offense at the rela-
tions betweer their father and the
Grayney woman Taking advantage
of the opportunity when Wylie Gray
ney went to Hartsville for today, it is
charged, the boys went to the house
of the Grayneys and demanded that
the woman leave the section. Upon
her refusal, to do so, according to the
accounts available FROM men who
have returned from the scene of the
affray, the boys shot up the house,
the elder woman meeting her death in
the fusillade. The younger woman
was badly beaten.
\ LAS soon as news Of the affair reach
ed Bishopyille Sheriff Muldrow and
other officers hurried to the scene.
Arriving there they found the elder
Grayney woman dead and her daugh-
ter in a precarious condition.
Empaneling jury Of inquest, the
officers set to work to ascertain the
facts and clear up any mystery. The
inquest was soon over. The coroner's
jury, without delay, returned a ver-
dict holding the five Grantham boys
for the murder of the elder woman.
The sheriff at once arrested them and
made his way to Bishopville, where
they are now in jail.
The boys decline to say anything as
to their connection with the affair.
The section where the tragedy oc-
curred-the district between Kelley
town and Gilbertown, has long been
known as the scene of numerous
crimes. 1t lies in the extreme north
western sections of Lee county.
The five boys are residents of Dar-
lington county but the house where
the Grayney home was killed is in
Lee.

THE NEWBERRY COLLEGE
CLUB IN CAPITAL CITY
FIRST ANNUAL BANQUET A DE-
LIGHTFUL AFFAIR.
Delightful Repast in Jefferson Hotel
Congressman Lever and Others
Made Addresses.
to The Herald and News.

Special to The Herald and News.
Columbia, July 3.-The first annual
banquet of The Greater Columbia
Newberry College Club, which was
held in the Jefferson hotel on Tues
day night, was all elegant spread.
Plates were laid for about one hun
dred, and the alumni, former students
and invited guests very thoroughly en-
joyed the occasion. The alumni and
former students Of the college in Co.
lumbia number some eighty or ninety,
and most of them were present.
Congressman A. Frank Lever, an
alumnus of the college, and President
Harms and Former President Cromer,
both alumni, were the principal
speakers of the evening. There were
several other speakers, and the post
prandial talks were appropriate and
lieberally applauded, at times invoking
intense enthusiasm.
The principal object of the associa-
ton which has been formed is to ad-
vance the interests of Newberry col
lege and to help poor boys to secure
an education there.
President H. A. Mccullough, of the
association, was i'll, and was therefore
unable to attend and preside. His
place as POSTMASTER was taken by
Vice-president w. H. Hitler.
The speakers were the Rev. c. A.
Freed, F. VIM. Cappelmann, DR.. W.
III. Greever, Mr.. R. III. Welch,
DR.. Clarence L. Kibler, Presi-
dent ]. Henry Harms, DR.. George B.
Cromer, and Congressman Lever.
A slight tinge of politics was Incl
dentally and scarcely noticeably in
iected into the affair towards the
close, but it had best be forgotten, in
the interests of the organization and
of the college.
A refreshing note in the speeches
was the reference by DR.. Cromer to
the professors of the old days.
President Harms stressed the point
that the college is community of in
terests, and expressed his extreme
qualification in this organization.
There was a goodly number of Ia
dis present, some of them alumnae
and former students.
The delightful menu was as fol-
lows:
