Negro Runs Away
With Handouts

After some clever detective
work and the use of successful
ruse Mr.. @. l.. Melton, rural po-
liceman at Pageland, captured a
fugitive badly wanted in Lancas-
ter, only to allow him to escape
a little latter.
On November 9th, Ernest M.
Watkins superintendent of the
Lancaster Oil Mill was shot and
killed. John McIlwain. a negro,
was wanted for this crime and a
reward of 5000 was offered for
his arrest.
Last Thursday he was located
by Mr.. Melton about six miles
from Pageland. Mr.. Melton or
ganized a small posse, who, un-
der the guise of bird hunting,
succeeded in approaching the
negro without suspicion.
The man was captured, hand
cuffed and the trip to Lancaster
begun.
About dark, it is said that the
negro complained of thirst and
the party alighted to get water
at the we'll of Mr.. j. A. Arant.
On passing through a gate
back to the car, the negro bolt
ed, handouts and all. He prob
ably was going some from the
start as it is said that the shots
from Mr.. Melton's revolver could
not overtake him.
Bloodhounds were at once got
ten from the penitentiary at CO.
lumbia and put on the negro's
trail, which they followed for
some distance, but, loosing it,
they were unab BILE to take it up
again and were sent back to the
penitentiary. Sheriff John P.
Hunter, of Lancaster, hearing of
the escape of the negro, left
there by automobile at 3 O'Clock
the next morning for Chester
field county to assist in the ap.
prehenslon of the man.

Last Saturday afternoon, while

run over by an automobile driven
by Miss Nell Melton, the 13-

The street was fairly filled
with vehicles and Miss Melton
was carefully threading her way
through these at reasonable
speed, sounding the horn at in-
tervals, when Mr.. Jordan, who
is approximately So years of age
and hears with difficulty, step
ped immediately into the path
OF the on-coming machine. The

The senate on Tuesday passed
Senator Tillman's bill appropri.
ating S11 100000 for the estab-
lishmeut Of a government armor
plate plant. The vote was SO to
%, the Republicans generally
opposing the proposition. The
opposition argued the objection
Of paternalism and all that; but
it was clearly shown that the
armor plate trust which has
been making the United States
government pay $616 ton for
Its wares has been selling to the
! Russian government at $246 q
ton 1t was also shown that nav
al officers who direct the pur-
chase of armor plate have stock
in the companies that make and
sell armor plate. Under coudi-

the government should not only
be in position to protect itself
from such extortion, but il
ought to administer a paternal
