A telegram received here yester-
day brought the sad tidings of the
death of Mrs Annie Niche at Dar-
lington. Mrs Niche was sister of
Mr. D M Erwin of Kingstree. We
understand that her death was very

She is survived by her husband. MIR

Mr. Jake Kinds, who lives a few
miles from town, was kicked by a
horse Monday evening and painful
ly, if not seriously injured, the blow
from the horses hoofs knocked out
several of Mr. Kinds teeth and
otherwise damaged his physiognomy.

Handsome new furniture has been
installed in the Masonic lodge room
in the Nexsen building. 1t is expect
ed and earnestly hoped by the men,
bers of the lodge that the new car
pet will soon be in place. This would
have been done already, but upon ex-
amining the carpet received some
time ago discrepancies were discov-
cred in the color, none of the three
rolls being alike, and a new order
had to be placed.
On last Tuesday night Willie
David, a young negro. was serious
ly cut and carved with a razor in
the hands of another young buck
by the name of Harry Tisdale. 1t
seems that a number of the younger
set of the Afro-American persuasion
had gathered at the home of Enoch
Burgess for dance. Honey dew
whiskey and other bad spirits caused
Harry to lose his mental equilibrium
and he proceeded to start a rough
house. He and David were showed
out into the yard, where the cutting
took place. David is said to be a
quiet, inoffensive man, while Tisdale
is generally considered a bad coon. ="
When he was arrested Saturday by
Chief of Police Epps, a gold watch
was found on his person that be-
longed to DR. C D Jacobs, having
been stolen from him in January,
1913. David is now in hospital at
Charleston, while Tisdale is taking
his meals in the county Jail and
lodging at the same place, pending
the next term of the criminal court.
