Another Negro Killed.

One negro of Newberry county was
fatally shot by another on Mrs.
Mary Bedenbaugh's place, about five
miles below Prosperity, last Friday
afternoon at about 5 o'clock and died
at about II o'clock that night.
George Abney shot his son-in-law,
Mack Workman. The trouble was
about Workman's little child. Work
man and his wife Maggie had gone
to the grandfather's for the child, as
they wanted to get it away from
Abney, who had it in his possession.
They were to have a lawsuit for
the possession of the child. The
grandfather followed them as they
were leaving and shot Workman, with
the result as above stated. Sheriff
Blease arrested Abney without delay
and placed him in Jail. Coroner
Lindsay held the inquest on Satur-
day morning. The verdict was, that
the said Mack Workman came to his
death by gunshot wounds at the hands
of George Abney. The following
composed the jury: D. M. Benden-
baugh, foreman; C. B. Bedenbaugh,
J. R. Bedenbaugh, D. A. Bedenbaugh,
J. E Monts and D J. Taylor.

COUNTY TEACHERS HAVE
INTERESTING MEETING

DR.. D. w. Daniel of Clemson col
lege was unable to be present at the
teachers meeting Saturday on account
of illness. In his stead Prof. Der
rick kindly consented to speak to the
association. Prof. Derrick spoke
concerning the great defect in the
quality of teaching as revealed by
the investigation of DR.. Chas. Nc
Murry last year. According to DR..
McMurry, school buildings are be:
coming more adequate, teachers are
better educated, but the teaching in
South Carolina is atrocious in that
the teacher does the reciting for the
pupil.
DR.. j. W. Carson, explained to the
teachers the plans of the Red Cross
for next year. He showed the great
need of the health unit at Newberry,
showing that if the Red Cross put up
$4,000 and the county that much the
federal government would match the
$4,000, making available $4,000 to
be spent in preventing and combating
disease in Newberry county. The
past two years have' shown the need
of medical inspection Of school chill
dren. The present outbreak of ira
choma in 9 and 10 townships proves
that the health unit would be worth
many times it's cost.
Mrs. L. w. Floyd distributed Red
Cross seals to be sold by pupils and
Prof. Cannon urged the further or
ganization of the Junior Red Cross
societies.
The next meeting will be held Sat
urday; December 13, at II o'clock.

All. Big Ships By lnternment.

New York Tribuue.
Charles Won Helmolt, resident di-
rector Of the North German Lloyd
line, who succeeded the late Gustave
Schwab in the management Of the
lines business in America, arrived
here on the Holland-American liner
Nieuw Amsterdam after a short visit
to Germany. Mr.. Won Helmolt, who
had become an American citizen dur
ing his stay Of nearly ten years in
this country, went to Germany to dis
cuss with the German directors the
possibilities of a resumption of the
North German Lloyd's service. .
He found little to encourage him,
he said, as the company had only a
few steamships left, and these were
hardly more than thousand tons
each.
"These vessels" he said, "are the
only ones on the sea that are flying
the company's flag, and they are
used like ferries between Bremen and
Scandinavian ports"
Another traveller on the Nieuw
Amsterdam was the Rev. j. Il.
Jowett, former pastor of the Fifth
Avenue Presbyterian church, who
comes here to visit his former con-
gregation and to deliver three ser
mons from the pulpit he left over
year ago.
Also or the vessel came DR.. Vile
liam H. Tolman of this city, who
spent ID months in France as "Y"
director for Bordeaux and vicinity.
Under his wing, he said, were 5000
coolie laborers in the service Of the

coolies had surrounded the wounded
Americans and given them all the

another occasion train bearing
American wounded was stopped by
congestion of traffic in the open
country and the coolies volunteered
to carry water for the soldiers from
a supply mile and half away"
Included among the 5000 passen-
gers on the vessel was the first COM
plete theatrical company to reach

THE COUNTY FAIR
BY COLORED PEOPLE

The Newberry county colored fall
association held it's first annual fair
November 1915, on the ten acre lot
recently purchased by the association
This movement is gotten up by the
colored farmers of the county to en-.
gage ourselves more forcibly and at
tentively along the lines of indus
trial pursuits. First we wish to thank
our white friends of the city and
county for the help they have given
us. In money, and nails, in building
the fence around the lot, about half
way.
Our expenses will be heavy at the
high cost of lumber. Again we wish
to thank the city and rural officers
for the assistance given us in keep
ing order and for their advice
There was one arrest made and one
little excitement. One Of our ticket
sellers, Ford Mangum was taken sud
denly sick, but DR.. Duckett was soor
at his assistance and he was able tc
be at his post the next day.
There was a big crowd Friday and
Saturday and every thing was very
orderly, saving the arrest which was
quietly made.
A good number of our leading
white citizens visited the fair and
seemed to enjoy themselves very
much. Mr.. E. H. Aull was asked to
make talk which he willingly accept
ed, but being some what indisposed he
spoke few words Of encouragement
that he thought the movement was a
good one and in the right direction,
for the boil weevil was here and that
we had better start from today and
raise our food stuffs. Then he in
troduced Mr.. j. B. FELTON,, super
intendent of colored schools. He
made a great impression Of the I'M
portance of an education, and that it
is not intended to lay aside farm
and industrial work. Mr.. G. D.
Brown made a good talk. Also Rev
s. Nance spoke and gave some very
Encouraging remarks on st3ae 4associa-
ton and it's uplift.
There was music during the fair
and many attractions to be seen
There was a fine specimen of horses
and the racing was highly enjoyed
The Greenwood horse won the first
premium. There were premiums
won by other horse, the Tobe horse
Davis horse and the Buff horse. The
fancy work and field products were
fine and premiums given on them
There were many remarks made that
the 1920 fair will pass all other fairs
Again I wish to thank our sheriff fol-
his advice, aid and kindness.
The fair was a success.

EUGENE S. BLEASE ENTERS
THE RACE FOR MAYOR
Julius J. Langford is also a Candi
date-Two Candidates in Wards
3 and S for Aldermen-No
Other Contests.

It looked at one time that we
we're going to have municipal cleo
ton for city officers without any
opposition except in Ward 5 where
there were two candidates for alder
man. And that was the situation
until about half hour before the
closing of the lists on last Friday.
Mr.. W. H. Hardeman and Mr..
John Livingston had been announced
for several days for alderman from
Ward 5, and Mr.. Julius j. Langford
for mayor, and until just a short time
before the list closed there was no
opposing candidates for any office
except Ward 5.
At 1880 on Friday MI. Eugene S.
Blease signed for mayor and Mr.. W.
B. Wallace signed also on Friday
about the same time for alderman
from Ward 8. In the other wards
there is only one candidate for each
ward and only one from each ward
for school trustee and the only candi-
date for commissioner of public
works is Mr.. Harry w. Dominick
who is at present serving as mem
ber of the commission very salts
factorily.
The candidates who will enter the
primary are:
For Mayor-Eugene S. Blease,
Julius j. Langford.
Alderman Ward III. D. Whit
akef.
Alderman Ward 2-R. C. Sigh.
Alderman Ward 3-W. B. Wallace,
R. C. (Pat) Wise.
Alderman Ward John A. Sem.
Alderman Ward 5-W. H. Harde-
man, John P. Livingston.
Commissioner Public Works -
Harry. w. Dominick.
School Trustee Ward Arthur
Kibler.>
School Trustee Ward 2-W. G.
Mayes.
School Trustee Ward 3-Jesse Y.
McFall.
School Trustee Ward Al. G. Esk-
ridge.
School Trustee Ward 5-Jesse Y.
Jones.
The election will be held on Tues
day, November 25, and there is not
much likelihood of a second election,
because there will be scarcely tie
in the two contested places. The
..,1u5 rolls for the county and state
elections constitute the registration
for the city election and if your name
is not on the county club roll better
see the secretary of your ward club
and have it put on. Copies of these
rolls will be made during the week
to be used by the managers for the
election.
