Morrison Garrison Of Greenville
county, was shot in the leg by a
Greenville policeman Thursday night.
He had made off with a neighbours
horse and buggy and when ordered
to halt by a. policeman, refused to
obey the command. The wound Is
not serious.
D. M. Stribuling Of Laurens, aged
81, a former deputy sheriff of Laur-
ems county, took opiates with suicidal
intent in a Greenville boarding house
last Wednesday, and died Thursday.
Worry over the low price of cotton
and too much brooding over the re-
cent death Of his mother, is said to
have been the cause Of his act.
AS the result Of the refusal Of
about rs weavers to work after their
wages nae been cut about ten per
cent, 400 employees of the Equinox
mill of Anderson, are out Of work, all
other departments being automati-
cally closed down by the stopping Of
the weaving department. The sup
port Of about 700 persons is removed
as a result of the strike.
C. w. Knighton, a farmer living
near Woodruff, had his finger bitten
off by a mule last Wednesday. He
was climbing to his barn loft to pro-
cure feed for his stock and mad
vertently stuck his left hand through
a hole in the partition Of the stable in
which the mule was confined. The
animal seeing the finger. took one
bite, taking the finger off clean.
George Belcher Perkins, the wealthy
Boston architect, recently convicted
in the United States court at Co.
lumbia of manslaughter. he having
killed F. w. R. Hineman, manager
Of the Times-Union, has given bond
for $1,000 pending appeal to the cir
cult court Of appeals at Richmond.

position among his former political
foes is to give him a square deal"
Favorable comment is being made
upon the reduction of insurance rates
on cotton in state warehouses. This Is
made by the South Eastern Under
writer's association on the ground that
a state warehouse is a better moral
risk. The principal cost to w%arehous-
ing cotton is insurance, and with the
Insurance Commissioner cooperating,
by next season the good results will be
felt by farmers who warehouse their
cotton at home.
The retirement of Mr.. James H.
Moore from the editorship Of the Co.
lumbia Record is attributed by many
to his too-partisan attitude. The
singing reply by Senator Applet, in
his Capitol correspondence, is suppos-
ed to have precipitated his denoue-
ment.
The memorial exercises in the SEN
ate for Senator Hardin Of Chester, at
tracted much attention, especially the
addresses Of Senators tombstone, Brice
and Banks. Senator Hardin will be
greatly missed in the senate, not only
for his lovable disposition, but for his
practical common sense. His successor
Senator Brice, is an able lawyer and
was a potent force in the house. He
has been assigned TO the flnance COM
mittee, and l predict that by the time
the session ends, will be a power to be
reckoned with-a clear thinker, with
a ready and forceful style Of express
sion, he is altogether an attractive per-
sonality.
There are so many new members in
the general assembly that it is hard
to size the body up. AS a whole, 1t
compares favorably with the preceding
legislature.

Gave Il a Trial.-A certain politician
who was once we'll known as a shin
ing light in the temperance cause, was
advised by his doctor to take a little
stimulant, as the best remedy for some
indisposition from which he was suf-
fering.
He pointed out to the doctor tha'
his position as the leading local advo-
cate of temperance would not admit OF
such a thing. The doctor, however
was in exorable.
You shave every morning, | pre-
sume?" queried the doctor.
Yes, of course" replied the states
man.

why not lock a bottle Of whisky In
your bedroom, and when your shaw
ing water is brought up 1t will give
you an excellent opportunity to take
your whisky without in any way al
fecting the morals of your household
or your constituents.
So the politician consented to carry
out the orders of his medical man.
Some time later the doctor met one
of his patients servants on the street
How is your master now, John"
queried he. His health is by this time
quite restored, 1 trust"
"Oh, yes, it is, sir. 'Es quite recoV-

I'm much afeard there's something
