! The WORD nsetD

What is the favorite word of the
English language? The Germnns have
their "schlag" and "zug." which cover
many meanings. But we beat them in
the one word-not "post"-which you
might suspect of the supremacy Of am
blguity-but set" One always thought
that ''postp was the word that meant
all things and nothing. The punster
should watch the word set" which
has achieved nearly seventy columns in
tie new English dictionary. 1t Is a
small word, but its meanings are al.
most unlimited. You should set to
work on the word. which you use every
day In a hundred senses. And it would
be a pleasant, popular game to set
down the number Of ways in which
you have used that word during the
das. sset to partners" you might call
it--Iohton Chronicle.

HOMICIDE IN CHERAw MONDAY
L. Trobesush Shot and Instantly Kill
cd by B. L. Gardner. Beth Men
Citizens OF Cheraw.

L. Trobeaugh was shot Monday af-
ternoon about 7.2O o'clock and in
stantly killed by B. L. Gardner. The
killing happened at a gate in the line
fence, the two men being neighbors
and section foremen in the employ
of the Seaboard Air Line railway.
1t seems from the information OBJ
tainable that there had been bad blood
between these two men for several
months, arising from a dispute over
a gate In a line fence. A few days ago
some of the children Of MIR. Trobeaugh
left the gate open and Mr.. Gardner's
cow did considerable damage to Mr..
Trobeaugh's garden, only to renew
the old feud. Monday afternoon MIR.
Trobeaugh, after reaching home from
his work, went to the gaE with a
hammer to nail up the gate and was
seen by MIR. Gardner, who went out
, with his pistol in his hand and the
shooting Immediately followed. Mr..
Trobeaugh had his pistol in his pock-
ct as is the custom Of railroad sec
ton foremen. 1t is said that MIR. Tro-
beaugh had threatened Gardner's life
during the day.
Sheriff Douglass and Coroner At
kinson arrived on the scene late that
night and the inquest was held. The
jury rendered the usual verdict that
Trobeaugh came to his death from q
qunshot wound in the hands Of B. L..
Gardner.
Both men were married and had
