Three Mules Killed; Drivers Shocked

Easley, Aug. 31.--In an electrical
storm here Friday afternoon three
mules were killed and their two
drivers were rendered unconscious
for several 6ninutes One Of the
mules, very handsome $500 mule,
was owned by the Glenwood mill,
while the other two were owned by
Messrs. Looper and Tomkins, farm
ers who re 5Iue about three mileE
east of this plac and at the scene
Of the accident.
The team Of mules had been sent
to the country to carry load of tim
ber to a saw mill. The drivers saw
the approaching storm, so unhitched
the mules and led them under shell
ter that was built adjoining stable
that had two mules in 1t A third
mule was led under the shelter Two
Of the mules under this shelter were
killed instantly and the third was
knocked to the ground. The light
ming then passed over the mule IN.
the first stall and struck and kil1sG
the one in the second stall The two
men were holding the mules under
the shelter and how they escaped
death is miraculous. Another freak
of the lightning was that 1t complete
ly passed over one mule directly In
line with two that were killed and
then killed the third mule. The shell
ter and stable were not damaged is
the slightest.
A very peculiar thing In connec-.
tion with this accident Is the fact
that twice before this summer the
Gle1 wood mill mule, victim of FRI
day afternoons storm, had broken
loose from its driver and run away
during other electric storms when
bolt of lightning came.

DEATH OF MRS. O. B. oEHnG
Announcement of Her Death Last
Saturday Came AS Surprise.

The announcement of the death Of
Mrs. G. b. Cehmig last Saturday
morning came as surprise to mauy
friends here, who, though they had
known that she was not we'll, were
not prepared for the news of her
death, which occurred at II o'clock
Friday night at her home on Main
street. Mrs. Oehmig had been in de-
clining health for more than q year,
but some months ago, after recsjv-
ing treatment by a specialist, her
condition was greatly improved, and
only the immediate family and few
intimate friends knew that her con-
dition was not as favorable withiE
the past few weeks as it had beeH
previously.
Mrs. Oehmig was n native OF Ger
many, having been born at Plaue2.
SaXony, June 5th, 1916, she being al
the time of her death q few months
over 81 years of age. Her maideT
name was Wilhemina Hoefer, and iE
November, 1854, at the age of eight
years, she, with her parents, landeG
at Charleston, coming directly frGS
there to Walhalla, and here they
made their home. In early child
hood she was confirmed into the Lu-
theran church, and at the time Of her
death she was a member Of the Wal
halla church or that denomination
remaining consistent member To
the end, though in recent years she
had not, owing to failing health,
been regular attendant upon the
services.
Mrs. Oehmig had been twice mar
ried, her first husband being Charles
G. Perry, Of Charleston. To this un-.
ion three sons we're born, all Of
whom survive. They are Fred e..
and Daniel H. Perry, of Columbia.
and Edward G. Perry, Of William
ston. Her second marriage was TO
G. b. Oehmig, of Annaberg, Saxony.
on the 18th OF March, 1877, and he
with three children, survives. The
children of this union are Mrs c. "
Hoefer, Carl G. Oehmig and Mrs. e.
G. Pike, Of Columbia. She is also
survived by one sister, Miss Mary
Hoefer, who for number OF years
has made her home here with Mr.
and Mrs. Oehmig. To these and
other relatives of the deceased Is ex-
tended the sincere sympathy of many
friends In their sorrow.
In the death OF Mrs. Oehmig one
OF the oldest residents Of Walhalla
has been removed, and her taking
away is deeply deplored.
On Sunday morning funeral ser
vices were held at ST. Johns Iiuthe-.
ran church. the services being con-
Quoted by her pastor, Rev. ]. b, Um-
berger, and her former pastor, Rev
t. b. Epting, OF Brunswick, Ca. who
is here now on visit. Immediately
after the services at the church the
remains were taken to the family
plot in the Lutheran cemetery, where
they were tenderly lowered to their
last resting place. The pall-bearerS
were: George Burklein, John Kuem-.
merer, r. F. Kaufman, Louis Rim
rodt, Fred M. Biemann and George,
NJ. Ansel.
There was a large concourse OF
sorrowing friends of the family both
at the church and at the grave, and
the floral tributes were exquisite.
Many Of those present on this sad &c
casion were from the country and
from more distant DOints

MRS. PANKHURsT AND HER

wondering how it is that the supposed.
ly strongest government in the world is
absolutely helpless in its presence. If
the published reports are even approx.
imately true, Madam Pankhurst can
preach all kinds of sedition, rebellion,
anarchy and arson, in England, and the
government becomes suddenly afflicted
with paralysis, in the presnce of her
threat Of u starvation, or hunger
strike" She can swat the British
lion, and, if she looks hungry, and she
generally does, the said king Of beasts
takes to the woods.
She can twcak the nose and pull off
the wigs of the blue bloods and scions
of nobility, and kick them through the
fence, and then, by a threat Of hun.
ger strike, they walk right up and eat
out Of her hand. When the United
States recently talked of deporting her,
she informed an official that if they
did so, she would inaugrate Chung

was promptly admitted to the United
States and given the right hand of fel.

to 60 through. The building on the
outside makes fairly good impression
and it probably is as good as it was
when new, but the inside, with its old
dirty woodwork, stove in each room,
and wood boxes, toilet room that is a
disgrace, thing this would stand a
good write up by The Capital journal
and at the same time advocate a sep
arate residence and Jail in connection
for the sheriff in a different part of
the city, so we do not have to look at
the bars in passing by, and also to give
room in the basement for a heating
plant, storeroom, toilets, etc, and by
remodeling the inside it would make
fair court house.
Now it seems fair that the city,
through the press and its Commercial
club could ask for this improvement of
the court house as it stands on such a
prominent place in the city, and good
deal Of the cost would fall on the city.
