ATTEMPTED MURDER AND ROBBER)
Mr. J. H. Crisp, of Gary's Lane, Shot Thre
Tines in the Head by a Negro.
A bold attempt at murder and rob
bery was coumitted by an unknowi
negro man at Gary's Laue in broa<
daylight on Monday.
Mr. J. H. Crisp, postmaster, keeps
store at Gary's Lane. About 11 o'clocl
vn Monday a negro man caie into th,
store presumably to buy some goods
and also with a most outrageous intent
He did buy a few articles, looked a
some shoes, and went out. He cam
back into the store and told Mr. Crisl
that he believed he would buy a pai
of shoes. Mr. Crisp showed him on(
pair, and the negro said he would taki
another pair he had looked at. As Mr
Crisp turned around to get the shoe.
out of the shelf he was shot three time:
in the head in succession by the negro
The first shot struck him on the bac
of the head, and ranging around :hi
skull, came out on his forehead. Hi
received the other two shots as h
turned around, both on the sides of bi!
head.
The only person in the immediat(
neighborbood was a colored woman a,
Mr. Crisp's house. She made an outcr3
and the negro fiend ran out of tht
store into the pine thickets. A
colored man ran after him and found
him concealed under a brush heap.
The negro attempted to shoot him, anc
he ran back to the store and the negrc
got away.
A posse of determined men, botL
white and colored, who soon got new;
of the terrible outrage, started in seareL
of the negro.
John Hunter took up a strange negrc
two miles above Goldville, following
the railroad. A man named Goodwir
was attracted by the strange appear.
ance of the negro above Goldville and
when got to the store and heard about
the shootnig he told Hunter about the
strange negro.
When Hunter caught the negro, he
said "I'm not the man you're hunting:
you're hunting the negro that shot tht
white man down the road. A negrc
named John Stevens shot him.":
Tom Brock was left in charge of thE
negro while Hunter went to Crisp tc
get a description of the negro who shot
him. and took back the colored man
to identify him.
The description that Mr. Crisp gavE
fitted exactly the appearance of the
strange negro who had been taken ur
on the railroad. Everything tallied
except that his recollection was the ne
gro wore shoes; the negro arrested had
no shoes on. Tne negro wore a red
dish hat turned iuside out and a dove.
colored coat. He was a young negrc
about 20 years old and weighed about
140 pounds.
.When Hunter got back the negro
was gone. It is said he "got away."
He has not been seen or heard of since.
The negro intended to rob the store
kill Mr. Crisp and perhaps burn the
store. Mr. Crisp had twenty-five dollars
in his cash draw and the negro saw it.
Mr. Crisp's wounds are not serious,
and he is getting along well.

Deafness Can't be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to euro deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets
inflamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when is en
tirely closed, Deafaess is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
cond:tion, hering will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrb, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.

DOUBLE DAILY TRAINS.
The New Schedule on the C. and G. Road
The Main Line by Way of Laurens.
On Mondav next the Columbia and
Greenville Railroad will begin a sched
ule which has been the talk for some
tille.
Through trains from Columbia w' ill
be put on by way of Laurens, leaving
Columbia at about 7 a. iml., and arriving
at Greenville at I 1:-0 a. in. 'I he trip
at first will be made in four and a
half hours, but as soon as the track be
tween Newberry and Laurens can be
repaired, the time will be reduced to
three and a half hours. At Laurens
the track of theGreenville and Laurevs
road-coiuparatively new-will be
used, the distance being -30 miles. Froni
Columbia to Greenville the distance is
about 109 miles agaiLst 144 iniles by
the old route to Greenville that has
bee,n used since the road was built.
The train wi:1 leave Greenville in the
afteinoon and arrive at Newberry about
7 p. m., and Columbia about 9 p. in.
The morning train from Columbia
will connect with a train which will
leave Newberry at 9 a. i. for A uderson.
LeavIng Anderson at 12 o'clock it will
arrive at Newberry about 7 p. m., and
i will be consolidated here with the main
line train for Columbia.
A postal clerk will be put on the
main line between Columbi-t and
Greenville.
The train from Laurens to Columbia
will be discontinued. Its schedule has
been very convenient and it appeared
to be a fixture, but we still have the C.,
N. & L. schedule if we want to make a
visit to Columbia and return the same
day.
The regular passenger trains passing
New berry at I p. In. and 3.42 p. m.,
will continue the same schedules.
Superintendent Dodson has made a
good change in the schedules. The
new train from Columbia is decidedly
the best one ever put on the road.
Now, if Capt. Dodson and Capt.
Childs will give Newberry a union
passenger depot, we will be happy.
Special trains will leave Hodges each
day of the Fair at 6 a. m., passing
Newberry about 8 a. m., and arriving
at Columbia at 10 a. m.
The rates have not yet been an
nounced on the C. N. & L. Road, nor
is it likely that a special train will be
run.
The rates on both roads will be the
same-$1.50 from Newberry for the
round trip, including one admission to
the Fair.

Mr. Geo. P. Griffin has had Colony
Church yard greatly improved by sow
ing it down. All church yards ought
to be sowed down in orchard grass and
clover. Nothing would add more to
their appearance. Mr. Griffin cer
tainly deserves some praise for the in
terest he has taken, So few do their
duty that a man needs no praise when
he does his duty these days.
Johnstone Academy p)atrons are re
quested to meet at the Academy at 2
p. mn. Friday to elect trustees, make
regulations for another year and to
pay their years' taxation. Those who
owe old accounts are requested to
come and pay up, or make satisfactory
arrangements, as the trustees have had
to pay about $50 out of their pockets.
We think every one who owes old ac
counts should come up and make ar
rangements. Those who can't pay all
should come and pay a part. We think
all the patrons should help to pay the
deficit and not the trustees foot the
whole bill.
Let us all put our shoulder to the
wheel and make Johnstone school an
honor to the one from whom it is
named-that noble mran, Chancellor
Job Johnstone of ante bellum days.
Your presence on Friday, October
36th at 2 p. mn., will show what in
tt'rest you have for the school. We
want tio proxies. Your presence is re
spectfully requested. We ought to
make arrangements to pay the small
debt on the building and get good
titles. No one is willing to help build
up a school unless it has good titles to
the lot.
Ware House, No. 11072, meets on Sat

tend the meetirngs regularly on Satur
day before the first and third Sundays
of each month at Jacob Counts' man
u tactory.
Mr. Elbert Griflin is convalescing

Mr. Pierce Luzhardt was on the sick

NEWS FROM PROSPERITY.
Mr. W. B. Spence leaves to-morrow
to take up his abode in Atlanta. Mrs.
Spence preceded him to the Gate City
ten days ago. We are sorry to lose
such citizens as these good people.
And still another gone. Robert L.
Whites, (Bobbie), has thrown himself
under the protecting wings of The
State in Columbia. Prosperity's con
tinual loss of her young men does not
augur well for her.
A few days ago the little ten year old
daughter of Mr. Thompson Wheeler
fell from a loaded wagon by which
she sustained a serious injury in the
spinal column. It was at tirst thought
she might be a cripple for life, but such
fears are now dispelled and she is im
proving.
The dry season is preventing the
farmers from sowing a full early crop
of fall oats. Red lands are entirely too
dry to sow at all. Seed oats are worth
75c. per bushel here.
A ne w schedule for both the Laurens
train and the Anderson "cannon ball"
will go into effect on Sunday, Novem
ber 1st. .New berry will be the term
inus for the Anderson train instead of
Prosperity. The Laurens train will
leave Columbia at 7 a. in., by way of
Laurens to Greenville, and return to
Columbia at 9 p. mn., thus making two
daily trains from Columbia to Green
ville and vice versa. It remains ro be
seen whether this change will benefit
the travelling public or not.
Last Sunday morning there was no
preaching in town, notwithstanding
we have four churches here. This has
occurred before, and does seem to us
should be remedied in some way, so
that there would be divine services in
at least one church on every Sunday.
The season for in-gathering has been
and continues to be very fine, and the
farmers have not been slow to improve
it.
The public schools of Township 9
will open on the 16th November next.
Our County Treasurer was adver
tised to be here to-day for the purpose
of collecting county and State taxes,
but at this writing 11 a. mn., he has not
put in an appearance. What's wrong
with you, Callie? YUBE.
