WIND STORM IN COLUMBIA.
Telephone AMI Telegraph Poles Down
in Darkness.

Columbia, June 2S.-For two hours
this afternoon Columbia was VISITED
by a heavy storm of wind, hail and
rain, accompanied by lightning and
thunder. The disturbance was the
most severe of its kind to strike this
section for some years. Heavy dam
age was suffered by public service
companies, stores and residences IN
all parts of the city. Plate glass
windows were blown in, signs and
fences were blown down. Office
buildings were flooded and ventila-
tors were torn from skylights. Tel
ephone and telegraph poles were
blown down and trees were multi
ated, making the streets lmpas-
sable in some places and filing road
WAYS with wires. AS result the
city tonight is in darkness. At least
eight hundred telegraph poles are out
Of commission. Lightning struck in
many places within the city limits
and resulted in one small confagra
ton.
As a result of road conditions re-
sulting from the storm an automobile
three miles from Columbia on the
Two Notch road skidded and the oc-
cupants were violently thrown out.

He Found Him.

In a class of twelve boys one OF
them had broken a school rule, but
none of them would own up to being
guilty or tell on the one they knew
had committed the offence.
"I will thrash every boy in the
class until 1 find the offender!' an
nounced the teacher.
So he began and whipped eleven
of them. When he reached the last
boy he said: Now, if you tell me who
did this l won't thrash you"
"All right, sir" was the quick an
swer. 81 did National Monthly.

there were too many Yankees about
for US to expose our Confederate grey

Il cant take STEP answered the
fellow from the ground, making no

Just then we looked up, and. with
lin plain view coming towards us was
a body of Yankee soldiers. Some
thing had to be done and done quick
ly.
The Yankees!" cried some one.
The man sprang from the ground
as if electrified.
Saved" he shouted, Il am saved. -
We each made a grab for him and
commenced pulling him in the direc-
tion of the nearest woods. Instantly
the fellow limbered and sank down.
'If you don't come with US, we'll
have to kill you" said Hume, and
four rifles were leveled at him.
Getting to his feet, he squared him

and have been without food for the
past two days, and I won't be taken

He was as game man as l ever
saw, as he stood there completely at
our mercy and looking us fearlessly
in the eye My heart went out to
him, and 1 exchanged glances with
Richardson.
He tried to shoot me after he sur
rendered." said Richardson, and that
settled it.
Two men got in front of him and
pulled and two got behind and pushed
Rose bucking and pulling back at
every step. All this was out in the
open field, in plain view of the Yam
KEGS who must have mistaken us for
some of. their own men. Finally, ex.
hausted. Rose gave up and said he
would go with us. We managed to
get him to the woods, and there he
told us his story-of his long impris-
onment, his nights spent in tunnel
ing out of Libby; his lack of food for
the past few days; his getting with.
in sight of his own men, only to be
captured.
He told us of his wife and child
he had not seen for so long, and
begged US for Gods sake to let him
go.
There were those among us who
felt the eloquence of his appeal more
than he ever knew, but war is war
and to have the bravery, pluck and
endurance which he had displayed
set at large to be used against US
once more was more than could be
expected. So We took him back to
Richmond from where he was return
ed to the very prison made famous
by him.-Camden Chronicle.
