LOSES ARM IN GIN.
Mr.. W. S. Miley Happens to Great
Misfortune Monday.

The many friends all over Bamberg
county of Mr.. w. S. Miley were dis
tressed to learn that in an accident
Monday he had his arm so severely
lacerated in a ginnery that it was
necessary to amputate the member.
Mr.. Miley was running the cotton gin
of Mr.. E. C. Hays on the latters
place near Bamberg. In some way
the sleeve Of his left arm was drawn
into the belt resulting in fearful lac
GRAFTON to thesarm. The injured man
was carried on the p. m. train from
Denmark to Savannah for an i'm
mediate operation. He was accom-
panied to the hospital by DR.. H. J..
Stuckey. In addition to the injury
to the arm, Mr.. Miley suffered pain
full injuries to his forehead and chest,
but these injuries are not considered
serious. He was so severely shocked
by the accident, that he could not
tell just how it occurred. He was
given first aid treatment by DR.. A. S.
Weekley. Mr.. Miley is a prominent
citizen of this place. He was for
years chief of police of Bamberg, re-
signing this position two or three
years ago.

CONINIENDS ATTORNEYS.
Judge Wilson Praises Conscientious
Work Of Appointed Lawyers.

At the conclusion of the trial of
Ozelle Anderson Saturday afternoon,
Judge Wilson took occasion to give
very high praise to the able and con-
scientious manner in which Attor-
neys E. H. Henderson and ]. Wesley
Crum, Jr., defended Anderson.
These young lawyers were ap-
pointed by the court to defend An
derson in his trial, for the alleged
shooting and killing Of Elmer Loper,
one of the victims of the Denmark
affair in which three men met death.
Judge Wilson explained that mem
bers of the bar are frequently called
upon by the court to perform un-
pleasant duty, and that If there is
anything that is distasteful to him
it is to see a lawyer in the perform
ance of such duty do it in half
hearted manner. Messrs. Henderson
and Crum performed their whole
duty in defending Anderson, who,
through their efforts, received the full
benefits of law and evidence favor
able to him. ....
Judge Wilson also took occasion
to compliment Bamberg county for
the unguestioned fairness and lack
of prejudice shown in this trial. There
was never at any time the slightest
evidence Of violence or prejudice dur
ing the whole trial. 1t was very ap-
parent throughout that the citizens
of Denmark and the rest Of the coun-
ty intended to abide the decision of
the court, whatever that might be.
The very exemplary and manly po-
sition taken by Sheriff Ray, father of
Henry Murray Ray, who was shot to
death in this most unfortunate affair
in Denmark, was also strongly COM
mended by Juduge Wilson. Sheriff
Ray, during the excitement that pre-
vailed at the time of the shooting,
exerted every effort as an officer and
as a citizen to prevent any overt act
that might be a reflection on the
county. Inasmuch as his own son,
who had only recently returned after
valiant service with the. thirtieth di-
vision in France, was lying at the
point of death on the day following
the tragedy, and subsequently died,
the stress under which the sheriff
labored may easily be imagined. Not
withstanding this, as Judge Wilson
stated, he performed his whole duty
to his county and to Ozelle Ander-
son, in giving him the full protection
of fha law

S73s TOBACCO FROM IA ACRES.
Share Cropper Makes Unusual Profit
on Small Plot of Land.

Six hundred and eighty-two dollars
and fifty-four cents gross profit on
one and one-half acres of land is the
record of one farmer in Bamberg
county who planted tobacco this sea-
son. This splendid record was made
by Mr.. R. R. Creech, a share cropper
on the plantation of Mr.. H. H. Stokes,
cashier of the Bamberg Banking Co.
The total production of tobacco on
the acre and half was nearly 1000
pounds, and the net proceeds of the
sale, after deducting freight charges
to the tobacco market and the ware
house commissions, were S73S.S9, or
an average of nearly SO cents a
pound.
In addition to the tobacco crop,
there is now a fine crop of pavine hay
on the land, and yield of one ton
of hay could easily be realized if it
were gathered. But the hay will be
turned under, in which case it is fig
ured it is of still more value. Peavine
hay is worth s35 per ton, which
makes the profit even greater.
Following are figures on this to-

Practically all or the WORK, III uudh-
ing and curing this tobacco was done
by the family of the cropper, there
fore, it would be difficult to arrive
at the exact cost Of the labor. In
this connection, it may be stated that
this tobacco was grown and cured by
Mr.. Creech in addition to his regular
crop of corn and cotton, and that,
therefore, there was no additional ac-
tual expense in making the tobacco
crop.
So far as known, this is the best
record that has yet been attained IN
this section of the State, perhaps the
best in the State.

ers standing in the street. Mobley
was struck once. Henry Murray Ray,
bystander in no way connected with
the affair, was struck once, and died
later in the hospital. Elmer Loper
received one'shot, and died some time
after in a hospital near Denmark.
J. R. Thompson, another telephone
man, was shot in the arm. Mobley,
who had taken refuge behind a tree,
reached his arm around the tree
and shot Brown, killing him. Before
dying, however, the negro fired two
more shots from his Colts automatic.
One witness testified positively
that the shot that killed Loper was
fired by Anderson, and another wit
ness testified that he saw Anderson
pull a pistol from his hip pocket.
The witness turned then to run to
escape the bullets and heard a shot
fired Immediately after turning,
which, in his opinion, was not from
the same pistol as Browns, having a
different sound from an automatic.
A moment after this shot was fired,
this witness saw Loper running away
saying he was shot.
The street had many people on it
when the shooting began, but they
all ran to shelter when the firing be-
gan. Anderson denied that he had
pistol on him that day, and denied
having any part in the shooting. He
stated that he was witness in the
magistrates trial, and that he at
tended court only on the insistence
of Brown, and that, instead of push
ing Brown forward in the shooting,
as was alleged, he was trying to get
him to the autombile and carry him
home. He said that Brown was dan
gerous negro, invariably carried
pistol, and was in very angry mood
the day of the. trial.
The trial of this case closes the
affair. Mob1ey was tried early in the
week and acquitted upon instructions
from the Judge.
An erroneous impression appears
to prevail in some quarters in regard
to this case, to which much notoriety
has been given, it seeming to be the
opinion of some that this shooting
was in the nature of race riot. This
is wholly erroneous. There was no
trouble with the negroes, and the
case was confined entirely to Brown
and Anderson, on the part of the ne
groes. Brown was negro Of very
unsavory reputation. In order to
show that there was nothing of race
riot in the affair, it might be stated
that aside from the witnesses and
others actually involved in the trial,
there were never more than 25 spec
tators in the court room during the
trial of Anderson.
During the session last week eight
defendants pleaded guilty to violation
of the prohibition law. They were:
Nose Hightower, Manuel Hayes, J. D.
Washington, T. F. Richardson, Mat
thew Moody, James Benton, William
King and Herman Minigan. All of
the defendants except the last named.
minigan, were sentenced to serve six
months on the public works or pay a
fine of 5000. Minigan was sentenced
to serve three months or pay fine of
800. Several have paid their fines.
Edward Bailey pleaded guilty to
arson, and was sentenced by Judge
Wilson to serve in the State peniten-
tiary for ten years. He was recon-
mended to the mercy of the court.
