Protest Negro Appointment.

Washington, July Ex-senator
Hoke Smith and Senator Gore, of
Oklahoma, talked with President Will
son to-day about the opposition of
Southern members to the confrma-
tion of A. E. Patterson, an Oklahoma
negro nominated for register of the
treasury. Neither Senator cared to
discuss the conference, but it was
said no effort would be made to press
the confirmation of Patterson and
that the withdrawal of his name
would not be surprising. Senator
Gore did say, however, that he had
originally picked an Oklahoma In
dian for the place. He said Patter-
son had been highly recommended by
those in charge of the negro bureau
of the Democratic national commit
tee.
Senator Owen, of Oklahoma, who
came to the White House on another
matter, said he was mildly in favor
of Patterson if the, President wished
to appoint negro to that Office.
II am in favor of segregating," he
said the negro appointments to the
registers bureau and thus stimulat-
ing their desire to enter that de-
partment of the government. This
would not offend the most scrupu-
lous of white persons. I am opposed
to the appointment of negro to
position which would give him super
vision over white persons"

Easley Farmer Killed.

Easley, July 2S.-L. H. Hammond
a farmer residing several miles north
of this place, met instant death here
this afternoon when he was struck
by southbound passenger train.
The details could not be ascertain
ed, but it is believed that the man
stepped from the track and thought
that he was far enough away to al
low the train to pass when the step
of the engines tender struck him in
the back of the head and it is be-
lieved knocked him against an iron
blowpost. The post was covered with
blood. The step of the tender was
broken off by the jar which it re-
ceived.
Mr.. Hammond was former en-
ploye of the Alice cotton mills of this
place and was 55 years of age. He
leaves family.
This is the third death of the same
kind occurring within 200 yards OF
each other within the past few years.

Columbia, July 26.-Miss English
Patterson, a daughter of the late
Congressman ]. O.. Patterson, was
suddenly taken i'll on a Southern
railway train between Charleston and
Summerville to-day and died in less

the hand of death. Heart trouble is
supposed to have caused her death.
Miss Patterson was en- route with
her mother, brother and sisters from
Charleston to their home in Barn
we'll and apparently was in perfect
health when the train left Charles
ton. She was a daughter of the late
Congressman Patterson from the End

relatives will learn with sorrow of
her sudden death.

KILLING IN COLLEToN COUNTY.
Clarence Woodward Shoots Young
Man Named Haley.

Walterboro, July 2S.-Clarence
Woodward, of Bamberg county, shot
and instantly killed young man
named Haley at Tabernacle church,
near Smoaks, in this county, on Sun
day. 1t seems that the trouble was
the aftermath of another shooting
scrape which occurred last year in
Bamberg, this being the first meet
ing of the parties since that date.
At that time several shots were fired
and Woodward was under bond at
the time of the shooting Sunday.
Woodward claims that he was
driving along the road when he met
Haley, who Immediately placed his
hand in his pocket as if about in the
act of drawing weapon. woodward
then shot him six times, from which
Haley Immediately died. Woodward
then came to Walterboro and, after
arranging with a local firm of at
torneys to defend him, surrendered
to the sheriff. He is now in jail
awaiting the outcome of application
for bail.
Both parties are comparatively
young, Haley being unmarried. Wood
ward has wife and four young chill
dren. Both parties were citizens of
Bamberg county.

SEALS DESTROYING FISH
Fishermen Say 1t Is Useless to Set
Nets On British Columbia Coast.

Vancouver, July 25.-That some
steps should be taken by the provin-
cial fisheries department to put an
end to the depredations of hair seals,
which are present in large numbers
in the Fraser and in the Gulf, is the
consensus of opinion among local fish
ermen, who figure that the seals will
cause them great loss throughout this
season.
The experience of one fisherman is
typical of many. Casting his net late
in the evening he did not draw it un-
til dawn. Three sockeyes and the
heads of 49 others met his eyes and
his chagrin, can be imagined. What
would have been profitable nights
fishing but for the hair seals returned
him no more than Is cents.
The fishermen declare that fully a
third of the sockeyes which enter the
Fraser this year will be devoured by
the seals unless drastic action is
taken at once The seals seem to be
present this year in greater numbers
than ever before. The suggestion is
made that the fisheries department
establish a bounty on all skins taken,
and in that way, it is thought, the
evil would be abated.

WOMAN COMMITS SUICIDE.
MRS. MARY ROBERTSON KILLS
SELF At LANDO.
Fred Hefley, an Expert Diver, Re-
covers Body and Brings it
to Surface.

Chester, July 2S.-With the strings
of a gingham apron tied around her
neck and a seven pound rock secured
in the body of her apron, Mrs. Mary
Robertson, wife of Sam Robertson,
leaped to her death from the bank
to Is feet of water in the mill race
at the Manetta mill. After much
diving by Fred Hefley the body was
recovered 35 feet down stream. The
village of Lando, in Chester county,
was stirred by the affair.
Mrs. Robertson left Wylie Camp
bells house at Lando about 8 o'clock,
apparently in a state of great nerv-
BUSINESS. She borrowed an apron from
Mrs. Campbell, which was afterward
found tied around her neck at the
bottom of the stream.
Mrs. Robertson is said to have made
threats recently to kill herself but
the villagers paid little heed to her.
On yesterday her husband left for
Columbia to stay some time and this
seems to have precipitated the deed.
She is said to have claimed that she
had no friends and that the only and
dearest friend in the world was going
and she thought the suicidal course
the speediest way to end her suffer-
ing.
She removed her shoes and had
she not left this clew it might have
been a week before her body would
have been found. When she leaped
into the stream the noise attracted
considerable attention from some
boys that were fishing further down
the stream. They Immediately made
an investigation, which led to the
discovery of the shoes on the bank.
The alarm was spread and an i'm
mediate search instituted. Mr.. Heaey,
an expert diver, was near, and he
began diving and soon brought the
body to the surface. This made the
18th person that he had pulled from
the water.
1t was at first thought that the
drowning had been the result of 'vio-
lence on the part of some outsider
and Sheriff D. E. Colvin and Coro-
ner J. Henry GLADDEN., along with
Deputy C. Y. Young, were rushed to
the scene in an automobile. Coro-
ner GLADDEN. made a careful investi-
CATION of the body after empaneling
a jury, with G. B. Heath as foreman.
He could find no marks of violence
save a confusion on the nose which
was attributed to its striking a root
or rock at the bottom of the race.

GIRL DROWNED IN PEE-DEE.
Miss Annie Rogers Meets Death
While i'm Bathing with Party.

Mullins, July Pa peculiarly sad
accident occurred here yesterday
that has cast a gloom over the entire
town and community. A small
group of young people went in bath
ing at Higgins Landing, on the Lit
tie Pee-Dee River, two and a half
miles from Mullins, in company with
two or three older ones, and in some
way Miss Annie Rogers lost her bear
ings and was drowned. AS soon as
the word reached town men hurried
to the river and in about two hours
the body was found three hundred
yards below where it was last seen.
All was done that could be to bring
the child back to life but she had
been in the water too long.
Miss Rogers was IA years old and
was a very bright girl, the youngest
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Jesse Rog-
ers, of Upper Main street. The par
ents are prostrated with grief.
She was very popular with those
of her age. Ae school she did well,
having finished the seventh grade last

Mar Who Wounded Merchant is Rid
died With Shot.

Macon, Ca, July 27.-After an all
days search for negro burglar, who
last midnight shot down ]. F. Ham
mock, a merchant of Dunbar, fifteen
miles south of here, a posse tonight
captured the negro in swamp at
Wellston, and after taking him back
to Dunbar, strung him to a pole in
the heart of negro settlement and
riddled his body with bullets.
Mr.. Hammock was brought to this
city and he lies in a critical condition
at the Williams Sanitorium, suffering
from gunshot wounds in his wrist and
breast. Mr.. Hammock heard a noise
in his store Saturday at midnight and
leaving his house, nearby, investi-
gated. He saw man working inside
and commanded him to come out.
The negro loaded shotgun inside
the store and came forth, shooting
two charges into the body of Mr..
Hammock. The merchant fell to the
ground. He recognized the negro.
Persons rushing to the scene, at
tracted by the shooting, were given
a description of the burglar and start
ed at once on the hunt The posse
gained in size until tonight, when
the capture was made, there were
more than a hundred in the party.
The pursuers had been led into
Houston County by bloodhounds that
were placed on the trail. Not far
from Wellston, some fifteen miles
from the scene of the crime, the dogs
came to halt at the waters edge of
the swamp.
Members of the posse waded into
the water with their drawn revolvers.
There in the water nearly up to the
negro's neck they found him. The
negro was dragged from the swamp,
placed in one of the automobiles
used by the pursurers, and taken to
Dunbar, where the lynching occurred.
Several hundred shots were fired into
the body of the negro.
The negro's name was John Shake,
about so years old, who, according to
Dunbar people, has caused much
trouble in the past and it is said has
been caught in the act of attempting
to break into this same store before

of the negroes held him while a
fourth drew a razor and severed his
head from his body. They threw the
body to one side of the road and fed.

HEYWARD TO BE COLLECTOR.
Charleston Man is Chosen For the
Office.

Washington, July 29.-Former
Gov. D. C. Hayward, of South Caro-
lima, will be collector of internal
revenue for South Carolina just as
soon as his name is sent to the senate
by the president and confirmed, this
agreement having been reached here
to-day by the two South Carolina
senators and Secretary McAdoo.
When it was announced last week
that the president had issued an ex-
ecutive order reestablishing the South
Carolina collection district, Mr.. Hey
ward took the matter up with his
friends here and asked the members
CT the South Carolina delegation in
congress for their support.
While other names have been dis
cussed it has been apparent from the
first that Mr.. Hayward would be the
man who would be selected. To-day's s
action verifies these predictions.
Gov. Hayward came to Washington
Sunday with Wilson G.. Harvey, of
Charleston, and spent yesterday and
to-day in a canvass of the situation.
This afternoon it became evident that
other names would be eliminated and
that Mr.. Hayward would be the win
ner.
When Senator Smith, who has been
active in the matter of establishing
the new district, was asked about the
situation he confirmed the story that
MIR. Hayward would be named, and
said that the matter had been satls-
factorily arranged with the White
House and the treasury department.,
and that the nomination might be
expected possibly tomorrow.
The fact that this appointment has
been agreed upon will be good news
to the friends of this popular Caro-
linian elsewhere, as it is in Washing

Moving Brick Building.

Work was commenced Thursday af-
ternoon moving the Baptist parson-
age, a brick structure from it's po-
sition close beside the church to
position nearer the side of the lot
next to Middleton street. The work
of moving is progressing very rapidly
and it is expected that the building
will be placed in it's new position by
late this afternoon.
The moving of this brick, two story
building, is a novel sight in this city
and many spectators have been view
ing with interest the work of NOV
ing.
A net work of heavy timbers were
first placed under the building as a
frame to support the structure. The
new position of the building was then
determined and excavations made,
and tracks of heavy timbers laid, roll
ers were then placed under the build
ing, and four wire ropes were then at
tached to different Iortions of the
structure. These rores were fasten-
ed to windlasses which were turned
by mules and men. All four ropes
were pulled at the same time, and
in this way the building is being
rapidly moved from its old to the new
position.-Orangeburg Sun, July rs.
