A HOT AT HER.
Unkiow n Negro nan Fired at Jose
phine Scott, Colored.
Officer Boston reported at police
headquarters last night that an un
known negro man had fired a pistol at
a negro woman by name of Josephine
Scott. The shooting occurred in front
of Monroe Hall's tailor shop. The man.
after shooting at the woman, made off.
She docs not know who he is.
(jetting Around Dispensary.
„ The latest attempt to evade that
provision cf the dispensary law which
prohibits the sale of whisky except by
snthorixeil agents of the state Is the
organization of "social clubs,” whose
members, it seems, may buy liquors
from the employe of the so-called club.
There are "cards of admission" and
there Is a "roll of members,” but the
general impression is that the liquor
is actually sold to the “members." The
constables are expected to raid these
establishments so that the question of
their legality may be decided by the
courts. The. legislature may be naked
to amend the dispensary law to meet
the preseti t trouble. —Exchange.

Many Mothers Made Clad by Epistles
From Their Boys In Cuba.
The iirst large batch of mall re

dier's In Col. Ray's regiment, which Is
now at Santiago. I« that regiment is
Capt. John Twiggs’ company, which
was recruited in Augusta. The letters
were from the soldiers, who were glad
dening the hearts of many mothers
and other relatives by the epistles.
Most of tl|e letters went info the gen
eral delivery box at the post office.
For several weeks anxious mothers
have called at the postofllce asking if
any letters from their boys in Cuba
were at the office. They were gladden
ed this morning by getting the letters.
There were about 250 letters in all.
They came via steamer to New York

The Best Time to Kkk a nan.
Perk and Quirk were walking along
the crowded street, feeling very kindly
toward themselves ond the reat of hu
manity. say* the Chicago Tiraes-Her
ald. Just as they reached the middle
of a crossing one of those aggravating
individuals who wqlk one way and
look another stepped directly in front
of a cable car which was rounding the
corner. Of course car had no fen
der on It. Nearly everybody In the vi
cinity yelled, and naturally the be
wildered man looked in the wroeg di
rection.
Quirk didn’t yell, though. He jump
ed to the side of t\ie track, grabbed
the man by the cellar ar.d yanked him
elear of the traeks and almost out ot
his chocs. Then t)r gave him another
ferocious Jerk to set him out of the
way of an express wagon, and getting
him at proper range al the same time,
he gave the poor man a kick that must
have driven his spine up Into hts hat.
And with th ’ kick Quirk roared:
“Confound you! Keep your eyes
open when you are on the street."
Quirk looked unutterably savage,
but Perk tottered to the curb, sat down
and laughed until the tears came.
Then he said:
“You arc the only big enough Idiot
on earth to save a man's life nud then
k'ck him for It.”
Plenty of Thieves.
Newberry. S. C., seems to be Infested
with thieves. Many of the most prom
inent stores have suffered in conse
quence. Nearly all of the goods that
are purloined are token during store
hours when clerks are not looking.
Several arrests been made and a
good many goods recovered.
