PUBLISHEI
EVERY THURSDAY AT
NEWBERRY S. C.
FOR INSULTING IIIS WIFE.
A. V Howell Shoots and Killo W. J. Mc
Grath.
AUGUSTA, Ga., June 11.-Another
terrible tragedy has been added to
Warrenton's bloody record. Capt. W.
J. McGrath, a prominent merchant
there, was shot and instantly killed by
Mr. A. V. Howell, who recently re
moved from Warrenton to Atlanta.
Howell fired five shots at McGrath,
four of which took effect in the iatter's
head and body.
The two men were standing in the
postoffice at Warrenton, and % hen
Howell fired the fatal shots were not
more than four feet apart. McGrath
fell to the floor and died in a few min
utes in great pain. He spoke only a
few words after being shot. One of these
was an invocation to God to have mercy
on his soul, and to a friend who cau
tioned him to keep still, he said: "I
will be still in a few moments."
There was only one witness to the
shooting. That was Judge H. H. Fitz
patrick, the postmaster at Warrenton,
who was filling out a money order
blank for McGrath at the time.
It is stated that Howell went into the
postoffice, and seeing McGrath, said:
"Capt. McGrath, you have been writ
ing letters to my wife." With this,
Howell drew his plstol and began firing
at McGrath, who offered no resistance.
There are sensational features con
nected with the case,and place McGrath
in the attitude of writing love letters to
Howell's wife.
McGrath is a married man, with a
family of four children, and came to
Warrenton from Charleston, S. C., four
years ago. He is a son of ex-Governor
h of that city.
How - he daughterof
W. DeBeaugrine, an ex-Cb nian,
who haVbeen residing in Warrenton
several years. She and Howell were
married about two months ago.
It is reported that McGrath wrote
her several notes before her marriage,
making improper advances, one of
which fell into her father's hands. This
led to an altercation,in whichMcGrath's
life was threatened.
The matter dropped, however, and
nothing more was heard until last
Tuesday, when Mr. Howell came to
Warrenton. Then it was learned that
he had taken a letter from the post
office at Atlanta addressed to his wife
and containing eight pages. The let
ter had no name signed to it, but was
.: postmarked from Warrenton, and
mentioned an express package which
the writer had forwarded to Mrs.
Howell. It was claimed to be Mc
Grath's handwriting.
Howell demanded an explanation of
his wife, but she protested her inno
cence and gave her husband to under
stand that she had long been the vic
tim of such persecutions at the hands
of McGrath. This is what brought
about the shooting..
Howell was brought to Augusta to
night and committed to jail to await
the action of the Warren County grand
jury.
.The coroner's. jury which sat in in
quest on McGrath's body, refused to
say whether the killing was justifiable
homicide or murder.
Warrenton is greatly excited over
the affair, as Capt. McGrath has many
strong friends among the citizens.
Howell is a carriage builder by trade,
and his wife is nothing more than a
child.
McGrath's relatives at Charleston
have been telegraphed for, and will
reach Warrenton to-morrow.
THE VICTIX NOT A SON OF EX-GOVER
NOR MAGRATH, OF CHARLESTON.
[Special to the State.]
CHARLESTON, S. C., June 1'2.-The
body of Capt. W. J. McGrath, who was
killed in Warrenton, Ga., Thursday,
arrived in the city to-night in charge
of his father, Capt. John McGrath,
who met the remains in Augusta. De
ceased was not a son of "x-Governor
Magrath, as at first reported.
The wife and children of the dead
man also arrived with the body. The
funeral will be held to-morrow.
THE TALBERT-LIPSCOMB TROUBLE.
What William MitcheU', an Eye Witness,
Says of the Affair.
[The State, 11th.]
Yesterday an eye witness to the Tal
bert-Lipscomb trouble was found. His
name is Win. Mitchell and he is a reli
able colored man.
Mitchell's statement of what trans
pired is given belo'w. After it was
taken down, it was read over to him
and he affixed his signature to it. Here
it is :
"I was coming from home between 8
and 9 o'clock and what caused me to
slack up was hearing some one using
the word 'lie.' Mr. Talbert said to Mr.
Lipscomb; 'I have often remarked it
to Lark (his driver) about you not
coming about me since I have taken
charge of the penitentiary.' Mr. Lips
comb said. 'I would come about you
but there is something that I have
heard that you said.' Mr. Talbert said:
'If anybody says that I say anything
about you, he is- a d--n liar and a
d--n scoundrel. Anything I have
said in the papers relating to you holds
good yet. I have alwvays spoken weli
of you, Colonel.'
"Mr. Lipscomib then said something
about some cotton (already mentioned
in the State), and what that was I
could not get hold of. Mr. Talbert
then said, "You 1ook like vou conme
down here to picIa a fuss with me this
morning, and if you did you can get it
any way you want to, now any
other time." Col. Lipsconmb said ' Who
ever says I said so and so"-I forgot
what this was-"is a d-n liar and
scoundrel.' Col. Lipscomib then
started to get down out of his sulky,
but at that time a crowd of children
gathered around and they both drove
right off and never said anything more
at all"

CABOLISA IN TUE CENSUS.
Newherry the only County in the State that
Shows a Decrease of 1'opulatiou, and
that only of G3.
' m 11-ro-, June 1o.-A census
bulletin has been issued giving the
population of the State of South Caro
lina by minor civil divisions and em
bodying also figures of the census of
1s'S0 for comparison.
The total population of the State
under the eleventh census, taken as of
June 1, 1S90, is 1,151,149, an increase of
155,572, or 15.03 per cent. over the popu
lation of the State in 1880, which was
995,577. In only one county of the State
is a decrease shown. This is in New
berry County, where a decrease of 63
persons is found. Other counties show
increases varying from 3 per cent. to
37.06 per cent.
Florence and Spartanburg counties
show the largest percentages of in
crease, while Spartanburg County also
shows the largest numerical increase.
in both of these counties is more than
one-third. Anderson County shows an
increase of 10,084 or 30 per cent. since
1880. Clarendon, Richland and York
counties show an increase of more than
25 per cent. while Horry and Lancaster
counties show an increase of nearly 25
per cent.
The figures for ISS0 for Berkeley and
Florence counties represent the popu
lation of the townships now composing
them, which in 1880 formed parts of
other counties. The population of
townships thus taken has been deduct
ed from the total population in 1880 for
Charleston, Clarendon and Marion
counties.
Of the cities and towns in the S.tate
having a population of 2,000 or more,
the largest percentages of increase are
found in Piedmont,Rock Hill,Laurens,
Darlington and Camden towns and
Sumter city. The largest numerical
increases during the decade are found
in Columbia and Charleston cities, Co
lumbia having increased 5,317, or 52.98
per cent., while Charleston h
creased 4,97 , r . o per cent. Th

Sam Je,nes Sued for $10,000.
[Ch2attanooga Times.]
A suit against the Rev. Sam Jones
and the Mor.tgomery Christian Union
is the latest sensation. Last fall during
the progress of the Sam Jones' meet
ings at the tibernacle on the corner of
Adams and Perry streets in Montgomi
ery, Ala., at the Sunday morning ser
vice, the wind blew almost a gale, and
one of the electric light lamps, with
which the tent was lighted, fell and
struck Mr. William Rogers, of Elmore
station, on the leg and very painfully
injured him. The broken glass also
struck the head of Mr. Rogers' little
boy and cut him, from which he bled
profusely.
Eforts have been made by Mr.
Rogers through his attorneys for pay
ment for loss of time and suffering, but
all proposals have failed, Rev. Sam
Jones writing that he wvas not running
an accident insurance company.
As a result a suit bas just been
brought in the circuit courts of Mont
gomery county for $10,00)0 by Glen. J.
T. Holtzclaw and H. C. Bullock as at
torneys for Mr. Rogers against the
great evangelist, Rev. Sam Jones, and
a large number of Christian gentlemen
of the Montgomery Christian Union.
Tfhe tabernacle on that memorable
day was crowded, and i the midst of
such a strong wind and threatening
weather the celebrated revivalist was
about the only man within knowledge
who could have held a crowd at the
crisis from bodily harm. Those who
were present will remember the occur
rence and will watch the result of the

One Year Ago and Now.
[Greenville News.]
A year ago yesterday, .luue 1Ith,
189(, the great Tillman caniaig:n was
opened in Greenville.
Many people who read this renieni
ber the meeting-the enthusiasrit, the
pride, the faith, the hope with which
the friends of the popular cause gath
ered to cheer the popular candidate
and to discountenance his opponents.
Some will remember it with sore
heart, for some who at that meeting
took pains to be prominent in their
hurrahs for Tillman were left out in
the divide and found when the
votes were counted that they had
their labor for their pains.
Looking over the files yesterday, we
were struck with one or two notable
utterances of his opening speech and
the light thrown upon them by recent
events and developments. The assessed
taxable of the State of Georgia, he
said, had increased one hundred mil
lion dollars in ten years while those
of this State had see-sawed, sometimes
rising and sometimes falling. There
must, he said, be a reason for this.
Some said the people did not return
their property honestly, but that
wouldn't do, for the same rule held
good in other States. He thought our
failure to increase like Georgia was
caused by the absence of a republican
form of government-by ring rule.
The alleged ring rule has been over
thrown, but there has been no great
rush of prosperity visible to the naked
eye. To the contrary, Comptroller
General Ellerbee appears to be strong
ly of the opinion that our poor show
ing in valuation for taxation is caused
by the failure of the people to return
their property honestly and in that
opinion he apparentl , ue Gov
ernor's sup .. ork has been begun
in pu ing up the bank and railroad
essments, and v e are promised that
the same thing will be done with far m
land, mules and other property so soon
as the officials can get at them.
A large part of that speech of June
10th, 1890, was taken up in arguing for
a primary election for State officers.
We had no primary, although every
body but Captain Tillman's friends was
anxious for it.
In another part of the same speech
Captain Tillman complained that the
department of agriculture had paid
$12,162 in fees to lawyers who repre
sented the State in a suit for certain
phosphates by which the State re
covered $51,000. "Why," he asked,
"did not the attorney general and the
solicitors who are State officers on big
salaries prosecute the ease for the State
and save this money ?" This point
was taken to be a strong one-a deci
sive illustration of the reckless estrav
agance of the old State government
and was loudly cheered. Yet in the
present phosphate suits against Coo
saw outside lawyers who work only for
big money have been freely employed.
When it came to Governor Tillnian 's
turn he did. precisely the same thing
he censured Governor Richardson for
rdoing, and called in extra help for the
State's case.
-Has there been any discovery of gen
reral rottenness and muismangement in
the old government? Two shortages
were found, amounting together to
about $6,800, we believe, and both were
promptly made good.
-Has there lbeen any large reduction
of expenses or taxes ?
Have any offices been abolished ?
Have the laws been better or more
effectively administered ?
Have we been more peaceful or pros
perous or contented than before ?
Let us from time to time keep in
view promise and performance, charge
and proof These are thbings to judge a
man or a government by.
Vance's Three Rt's.
I From the Atlanta Constitution.] .
Senator Vance of North . Carolina is
perhaps the wittiest man in public life
in the country.
On his recent trip to California, with
a Congressional committee, I heard
him get off one of his brightest witti
cisms.
His wife is a Catholic, and he is a
pronounced Protestant. In talking one
evening in the smoking room of the
car, one of his brother Senators asked
how it was that he happened to marry
a Catholic.
"Well," said the Senator," I will
tell you. 1 have tried rum; I have tried
rebellion, and I thought it might be
good to try a little Romnanism in good
to try a little Romianism in order to
complete the prescription. The com
bination is a good one."

[From the Atchison Globe.]
When Atchison young people of an

they are married the husbaud goes
alone and takes a dollar seat.

The use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. One bottle

after beginning the use of this medicine.
With many people, the effect is immediately

others, and the curative process may, there

tered into for a long period of years or for life
In the case of an insurance company (as
v ith an individual or with any other business
organization), strength is determined.by the
amount of assets OVER AND ABOVE ALL LIA
BILITIES: or, in other words. by the Surplus.
As the surplus of the Equiable Life Assur
ance Society of the United States on Dec.
slst, 1a9.', amounted to Twenty-three and Three
Quarter Millions (a sum many millions In
excess of the surplus held by any other life
company in the world), and as the Equitable's
ratio of assets to liabilitieL is 125 per cent.,
i. e., $125 to meet each $100 of indebtedness (a
percentage greatly in excess of that of any
other leading company), the question of
greatest safety must be de:ided in favor of
the Equitable.

3. RESULTS.-The settlements that are
being made on the twenty-year Tontine pol
icies of the Equitable Society, maturing in
1891, show a cash return tw the policy-holder
himself, IN ADDITION to the protection fur
nished by the life assurance for twenty years,
of all the premiums paid, with interest at
frorn 214 to 7 per cent. p?r annum besides
(according to the kind of policy and age of
the assured). No other company can show
such results, and hence It is that the Equita
ble's business has outstrilppcd that of every
other assura nee organizati)n.
