John Boone Now in Jail

The young man, John Boone,
who was accidentally shot in the
face by Rural Policeman Moore.
near .Angelus several days ago,
has about recovered, and is now
IN jail at Camden, according to
a phone message received at
this office yesterday morning.
The Jeffersonian gives the fol-
lowing account of the shooting:
John Boone was shot in the
face by Rural Policeman f. w.
Moore last Thursday afternoon
while trying to effect an arrest.
Policeman Moore had a warrant
tor Boone for larceny of bicy-
Gle in Kershaw county on jan
uary 18th, and it appears that the
officer had about located the
man, but did not know him per
sonally. While patroling the
rural districts in the Angelus Sec
ton last Thursday afternoon, Mr..
Moore met man whom he had
been informed was John Boone.
The officer commanded him to
halt, but instead he gol faster
Seeing that words did no good
toward etfecting a halt, Mr..
Moore fired four shots in his di-
rection, but not with any inten-
ton of hitting. However, the
second shot took effect in the
face, but Boone only mended his
speed and took cover in the
nearby woods.
MIR. Moore gave up the chase
and went on his way, but later
learned that Boone had been
shot and was in rather serious
condition. He thereupon, got a
doctor and returned 10 the
wounded man. Upon advices
from the doctor, MIR. Moore took
his man to McBee where he
gave him $25 to pay expenses in
Columbia hospital"

A Deserter.

To fail today, surrounded
with a world of opportunity, and
all of the modern advantages. is
an acknowledgment of great
incompetency. You are not the
football of fate.
Stop finding fault with your
situation. Stop plying yourself.
Go out and hire some husky to
give you swift kick. There is
nothing wrong with the world
the wrong is in your weakness.
You don't fight. You quit too
quick. You're lazy, hazy, half
hearted.
The preventions, the inven-
tions, the progress of a past, are
all but blue-prints for your pres
ent prosperity.
Your grandfather pegged his
own boots. Your grandmother
spun her own yarn. The kids
of other days were compelled to
climb ladder to reach the old
attic-the chamber over the
kitchen.
Wake up, you weakling. You
have the mental equipment. Go
back to the battle. Don't be a
deSerter.-EX.

The lessons in economy taught
by the hard times in the fall of
1914 and early part of 1915 have
not been forgotten. More and
more the people are coming to
see that cotton will not do to de-
pend upon entirely. They are
living at home more and more
as the years and months go by.
The shipment of hay and corn
from the Western markets has
played out and the people grow
the necessary feeds at home. A
few more years and the ship
ment Of back-band meat aud
black molasses will be thing of
the past. We might as we'll pre-
pare for this change by raising
what we need at home. Soon
also the people will quit buying
high-priced nitrogen to put on
the land. The air is loaded with
tons OF this costly fertilizer, and
the legumes. such as peas, soy
beans, vetch, clover, ect, store
this plant food right where it is
needed.
