NEGROES HELD OVER KILLING.
Negro Man and Woman in Jail Re-
garding Death of Henry SmoaA.

Maggie Jones. alias Maggie Thom-
as. and Robert Dixon, negroes, who
reside near Branchville, were placed
in the county jail yesterday in con-
nection with the killing several
weeks ago of Henry Smoak, whose
body was found on the road about a
mile from Branchville. These par
ties, it was stated, are suspected Of
having some knowledge of the killing.
They were brought to the jail from
Branchville, after having been ar
rested by Magistrate Walter Dukes
there, by Rural Policeman Sinkler
Boone According to Mr.. Boone they
denied to him any knowledge Of the
circumstances of the death of Mr..
Smoak.
1t was in the direction Of the home
Of Maggie Jones, it is said, that Mr..
Smoak is supposed to have gone some
hours prior to the killing. Robert
Dixon is said to have been frequent
visitor to the home Of this woman.
Mr.. Smoak's dead body was found
on the road during the early part of
the night, having apparently been
killed by blow on the head with
deadly instrument investigations
have been pursued since the fateful
night and several clues are being fol-
lowed
The victim was Watchman for the
Southern railroad at Branchville. He
was known as quiet and unassum-
ing citizen.-Orangeburg Times and
Democrat.

Something Useful.

What a peculiar choice OF wed
ding present." remarked an Ensnsn
woman, trying not to laugh, as she
inspected a huge fatiron which her
charwoman had just purchased.
"Ain't it ma'am said the char
woman. Its my sister that's getting
married, and I'm repaying her for the
Gift she sent on for me on my we'd
din day
did she send you something very
ugly, then?"
Deed, no, ma'am. Hers was a
beautiful present. But, YOU see,
ma'am, a little bird whispered to ne
that her future husbands man Of
violent temper, and l thought I'd
send her something that would be
useful in case of family disputes. She
has the straightest aim with a fiat

Pronunciation.

Sir Aukland Geddes, the British
ambassador, said at dinner: II as a
Canadian and you as Americans have
great advantage over the English
the advantage of accent. Americans
and Canadians all speak alike, but in
England the rich have one accent
and the poor another. Yes, the ac-
cent of the English is poor and shah
by and ugly as their homes or clothes.
Once, in a London board school, !
questioned the boys bit. l took up
the question of the COW. The boys,
in their dreadful accent, told me that
the cows hide was used for boots
and it's flesh for meat. Then l asked :
And what do we use the horns for?'
For tournaments, sir said a boy
promptly"

Ehrhardt Gathers Another.

Ehrhardt won a loosely played
game from the Olar ball team at
Ehrhardt Thursday, the 31st. Bad
weather slowed the game down and
was largely responsible for many OF
the errors. The hitting of the Ehr-
hardt team and NJ. Preacher for Olar,
also running catch by Roberts, F.,
the Ehrhardt center, in deep right,
and a peg to first for a double, were
the features.
The score by innings:

From $500 to 500 Acres in Cotton.

The largest individual farmer in
the state of South Carolina says he
absolutely runs his plantation on
money derived from the sale of pork
and has cut his labor bill from a
thousand dollars a week last year to
200 dollars this year and will use
one quarter of the fertilizer he used
in 1919.
This is not fairey story but the
actual story of w. I. Johns, who
began as a plow hand and today
owns more than 1000 acres of the
best farm lands in western South
Carolina.
Mr.. Johns cultivates about $500
acres. He operates more than 175
plows. He used last year 1900 tons
of fertilizer. He will use less than
400 this year, because he has cut
his cotton acreage from $500 to
about 500 and will raise diversified
pro- icts and meat.
Mr.. Johns has on hand enough corn
to supply his vast plantation for two
years. He uses l 1000 pounds of meat
a week and has enough left over. to
run his place on the sale of it. His
money crop this year will be pigs
and peanuts.-Allendal Citizen.

Young Kenneth Cheshire Fined for
Attack on Preacher.

Anderson, March 30.-In police
court today there was a trial which
caused considerable interest, being
that of Kenneth Cheshire, charged
with carrying concealed weapons,
fighting and disorderly conduct The
Rev. WitherspoOn Dodge testified
that when he was assisting a woman
into a car Tuesday afternoon he was
attacked from behind and struck in
the back of the head. Mr.. Dodge
stated that he did not know who his
assailant was at the time he was
hit, and that brass knucks were used.
Young Cheshire offered no defense,
pleading guilty to the charges, and
was fined S35.
This assault was made by young
Cheshire as a vindication to his
fathers memory. Mr.. Dodge preached
a sermon two Sundays ago, in which
he used as his subject "The Lesson
From the Life of Vic Cheshire"
Many complimentary things were
said about the deceased editor, but
the family took umbrage to some
parts of the sermon. Mr.. Dodge gave
the substance of his sermon in a
local paper, and the application
which he had made, but his did not
satisfy the son, who is 19 years of
age.
Mr.. Dodge is not seriously injured,
although painfully hurt, and was
taken to local hospital to have the
wounds treated.
