HOMICIDE IN EDGEFIELD.
Dead Man Found by His Wife who
Went to Look for Him.

Edgefeld, Sept. 13.-Archie Lind
sey was shot from ambush and in
stantly killed last night, a shotgun
being used. The entire load took
effect in the breast of the deceased.
Being notified by telephone, Sheriff
Swearingen rushed to the scene of
the murder and upon information OBJ
tanned arrested Richard and Cham
berlain Marlin, negroes, and nearby
neighbors of the dead man. They
are now in jail charged with the
crime. The coroner's jury is investi-
eating the affair, but as yet no ver-
dict has been reached. The homicide
occurred on the plantation of Mr..
Charlie Jones, six miles west of here.
The wife of the deceased heard the
report of the gun and upon her hus-
band failing to return to the house
went to hunt him and soon came up
on his dead body. Jealousy over q
woman is said to have led to the kill
ing.

WARRANT FOR E. C. WELLS.
Charged With Obtaining Money Un-
der False Pretenses.

A warrant has been issued for E.
C. Wells for obtaining money under
false pretences. The warrant was
sworn out by DR.. Lee Sanders.
Wells came to this city several
months ago and opened an office in
the Bleckley building, to conduct a
real estate business, but did not do
much in that line. The office furni-
ture was recently taken back on ac-
count of nonpayment by the furni-
ture house that sold it to him. Wells
left the city several days ago, leav-
ing a number of unpaid accounts.
Wellswas oncea Methodist preach
er and served some churches in this
county. When he left that church,
matters were not at all to his credit.
Later he joined the Baptist church
and preached at some of the church
es in and around Anderson while liv-
ing here.-Anderson Daily Mail.

TILLMAN NOT BACKING SIMS.
Withdraws Support from Orange
burg Man for Marshal.

Washington, Sept. Ex-senator
Tillman has notified the department
of Justice that his official endorse
ment of J. L. Sims, of Orangeburg,
as a candidate to succeed ]. Duncan
Adams as United States marshal
for South Carolina, has been with
drawn. This information was given
by the senior Senator this evening in
response to a question from The
News and Courier's correspondent
who has observed the activity of
friends of Ex-Sheriff Buford, of New
berry county, and asked Senator Till
man if there was any possibility of
his withdrawing the Sims endorse
ment. In explanation of his course,
Senator Tillman remarked that some
trying togb otho SEGA c aw hr DIT h
people had been saying that he was
trying to hog both offices, that is the
district attorneyship, and he felt con-
strained to take this action to clarity
the situation.
Senator Smith, who had not actual
ly endorsed Mr.. Sims, but had agreed
to acquiesce in his nomination, was
promptly asked what position he
would take with regard to the mar
shalship in view of Senator Tillman's
latest move The junior Senator re-
piled that he had nothing whatever to
say for publication.
The indications are that Senator
Tillman is concentrating all his for
ces behind the Thurmond candidacy
for district attorney, recognizing the
fact that during the past few days
Weston has gained ground heavily.
Whether the last move of the senior
Senator will result in an understand
ing between him and his colleague or
only deepen the cleavage between
them remains to be seen.

Lizzie Matthews Meets Death While
Playing With Gun.

Florence, Sept. 12.-Lizzie Mat
thews, the 5-year-old daughter of
Wade H. Matthews, a farmer near
Coward, died in local hospital last
night from an accidental gunshot
wound inflicted yesterday afternoon
while the girl and her 12-year-old
brother were playing with a gun. The
shot from the shell had been extract
ed and only the wad remained. Being
in close proximity to the muzzle OF
the gun the pulpy> matter made its
way through the walls of the child's
stomach and was later expectorated.
The child was conscious until late
last night and told the story of the
accident to the members of the fam
lily. DR.. H. NJ. Graham, who was i'm
mediately summoned, rushed the
child to Florence in an automobile.
The body was sent to Cowards this
morning for interment.

CHARGED WITH E,IBEZZLENIENT
Mexican Woman Arrested in New
York from Steamer.

New York, Sept. 12.-Alice Maude
Muller Sanchez, of Mexico City,
comely woman about 80 years old,
was arrested in Brooklyn by special
agents of the United States depart
ment of justice as she stepped from
the gang plank of the steamer Espe-
rama, which arrived tonight from
Mexican ports. She is charged with
embezzlement by the Mexican Gov
ernment, which for, months has been
looking for her, according to the Off
cials who MADE the arrest. The young
woman was booked on the steamer
as Ida Munger" and denied that
she is Sonora Sanchez. The embez-
element with which she is charged
was committed in Mexico City, but
the nature of it is not known.
Sonora Sanchez had with her seven
trunks.
She was born in the United States,
but has lived in Mexico seventeen
wears. She is being held for hearing
before a United States commissioner.

Sumter "Drys" Jubilant.

Sumter, Sept. 1.-THE prohibi-
tionists of Sumter are jubilant over
the outcome of the appeal before the
State board of canvassers in Colum-
bia, and are congratulating them
selves on their victory. Many of them
had confidently expected victory
from the first, and reports from Co.
lumbia from the hearing were very
encouraging.
The dispensary advocates are not
doing great deal of talking just
now, although some of them are as
serting that it is misfortune to the
town that the dispensary did not win
out. Mayor L. D. Jennings and State
Senator J. H. Clifton, the two leaders
in the dispensary fight, were both
out of town to-day and could not be
seen: therefore, it is not known
whether they will take an appeal to
the Supreme Court or not. 1t is prob
able, however, that an appeal will
be made, as Mr.. Jennings has stated
heretofore that an appeal would be
made if the decision of the State
board was against them.

Strange Action of Peoples.

Columbia, Sept. 12.-Attorney
General Peoples has declined to al
low the prohibitionists in Lexington
and Williamsburg to appeal from the
decision of the State board of can
vassers in sustaining the election of
the county boards in declaring in
favor of the dispensary, in the name
of the State, his permission being nee
essary to use the name Of the State.
The Attorney General stated that it
was his intention to refuse permis-
sion to use the name Of the State in
appeals from any of the other coun-
ties, which will shut out the dispen-
saryites in the Sumter case. How
ever, it is understood the parties
have amended their appeal and will
take the cases before the Supreme
Court without using the name of the
State.
Attorney General Peoples said this
morning that in the vote of the State
board of canvassers, which threw out
the Sumter election on the ground Of
illegal tickets being used; he alone
voted to uphold the action Of the Sum-
ter county board Of canvassers, which
declared the county won by the dis
pensary.

A SINGULAR ACCIDENT.
Sumter County Mans Eyes Closed by
Molten Metal.

Sumter, Sept. 13.-Mr. George
Belts was the sufferer from a most
unusual and painful accident yester-
day, while working at Mr.. w. G. Pier
sons mill, several miles south of
town on the Manning road. The ac-
cident occurred when Mr.. Belts was
babbiting the bearings of the machin-
cry and an explosion took place, send
ing up a splash of the molten metal
into his face, so that it covered the
eyes and closed them hard and fast,
putting him in complete blindness
until he could come to the Tourney
Hospital, where the metal was picked
out.
1t seems that Mr. Belts was bend
ing over the machinery dropping the
molten metal into one of the bearing
boxes, where the explosion was caus-
ed by an accumulation of oil or water.
The metal closed the eyelids, form
ing a film between them and thick
covering over them, and thus protect
ing the eysballs. At first it was
thought that the sight was totally
destroyed, but at the hospital the
metal covering the eyes was careful
ly picked away and it was found that
there was only one slight injury to
the eyeball, although the lids were
badly burned and the eyelashes had
to be cut off to get the metal away
from the eyes. The sight will, as soon
as the burns are healed, probably be
as good as ever, and it is thought that
he will be as we'll as ever, despite his
peculiar accident.

fans recall the days of Lobster
Brown. Lob" had faculty of boot
ing the bali while galloping along be-
hind his interference, and at the same
time getting about as much distance
as when kicking from standing po-
stion.
This style of play gained many
yards for the Jackets in those DAYS
and il is quite probable that similar
tactics may be employed this season.
Aft Mcdonald can get them away
quickly for good distances on the

A Funny Play.
The return of the quarterback KICK
calls to mind an odd play that TOOK
place IN a game in Nashville several
wears since between the University
of Nashville and Moneys School, at
a time when both turned out good
football teams. The Prep" team had
a man by the name of Muse playing
at fullback who also did the punting.
Muse could boot 'em a mile high,
but he was never good for more than
30 wards in distance. In this game.
he was called on to punt from point
near his own 40 yards line. He lifted
one high up into the air. followed 1t
down the field, caught IT on the run
and sprinted for a touchdown The
play was all right under the rules at
that time which allowed the kicker to
recover the ball if possible, and the
touchdown was allowed.

Mccormick Signing Players
Lookouts' New Manager Busy

Oldring, giving that fine fielder the
opportunity of making what many
spectators thought was the most sen
sational catch of the entire series,
showed that Mccormick was just as
game when everything was at stake
as when he was called on to start
something during the regular cham
pionship season.
Managed Giant Colts.
Mccormick was manager of the
Giants colts on their way North last
spring from Texas and he made good
from all angles. He brought back the
Rockies" to Washington, where they
reported to McGraw with flying col
ors. He not only won games right
along, but he kept up the discipline
TO the McGraw standard.
McCormick's release TO the Chalta
uooga club is only another instance of
McGraw not standing in the way If
any OF his old players when they have
a chance to better themseive He
did the same with Besnahan ana
others, and that strong characteristic
OF the Giants manager is sticking to
those players, who have done well by
him. will always stand out as one of
the best points of his nature.
There are some people, in fact. VINO
think that McGraw carries that ad-
mirable personal trait too far.
The many New York friends of Nc
Cormick and his admirers all over the
country, and they are legion, too. will
watch his managerial career with
much interest and none more than
Christy Mathewson. who played foot
ball on the same college team when
they were both college mates at Buck
nell. Matty being famous fullback
at the time, and Mccormick no less
famous as a halfback.
Spring Dates With Giants.
Secretary John Foster, of the New
York club, who will have the arrang-
ing of the Giants exhibition schedule
next spring, during McGraw's absence
around the world will give Manager
Mccormick several dates in Chatta-
nooga, both with the regulars and the
rockies, and the new manager is al
ready predicting as to what his team
will do with his old fellow players.
But I haven't heard as yet of his
making any bets. He is supremely
confident, however, and that is half
the managerial battle-so it's said.
Mccormick has already signed Ger
tain players in whom he has great
faith, and will doubtless be favored
by McGraw with some OF the latter
most promising youngsters, who may
be developed at the Marlin training
camp next sprirg-and possibly some
of the oldsters. too.
