Held a Very Interesting Meet
ing Last Night
ALDERMAN SPERRY IN THE CHAlR
Several Knotty Problems Ilefore the
liuird— Sew Sanitary Impetftor
Appointed—Ordinance Cre
ating New Office**
Owing to the absence of Chairman
Carling, it became necessary to elect
a chairman pro tern, at the meeting
of council lust night, and, on motion ol
Alderman Findlay, Alderman B. W.
Sperry tvn* unanimously elected chair
man pro tem. for the remuinder of the
year. Alderman Sperry then stepped
forward aud Clerk Br.dges Smith ad
ministered the oath of office, utter
which the new chairman assumed the
scut of honor und presided with such
dignity and ease as to' elicit the ad
miration of those present
After the reading aud adoption of the
mmutes ol the previous meettng
number of petitions were read, among
which was one from the Dixie Inter
state Futr, which elicited considerable
discussion. 'Hie petition was for couu
ml to pay $700 of the amount necessary
to remove the grand stand from the
cost to the went side of the race track
saying the association' would' pay $500
und that the Intention ol. the associa
tion was to leave a portion of tho
grand stand on its present side to he
used as a stand for the bicycle track.
After much had been said pro und con
Alderman Findlay's motion to refer the
petition to the tiuunce committee pro
vailed.
Two petitions, one from Mr. II. Du-
mom- and one from Mr, {I. T. Dowell,
concerning the cutting down und grad
ing of Ucmuigeo- and the adjacent
streets were relerred to the committee
on streets.
The King’s Daughters returned
thanks to council for granting tlie.r pe
tition for $3U0.
The finance committee reported ad
versely on the petition of the board of
public works for permission to pay the
park-keeper half salary during his ill
ness on the ground that It would be
establishing a bad precedent, and the
report wus udopted.
A communication wus read from thu
mayor saying 'that Inasmuch us Mr.
Hurry Davis had resigned Uie puslt.ou
of sanitary inspector, lie nud appointed
Mr. W. \V. VVuguon to succeed him
aud asked for council to coullmi the
appointment. The appointment was
unanimously confirmed.
Alderman Collins stated to council
that the city had become involved in a
lawsuit over the granting of an ou-
croclimeut to >V. E. McCnw on College
street, and us the city was in the
wrong mid would certainly lose tho
ousv, he hoped council would take such
action us aught settle tile matter with
out incurring court costs.. During the
lengthy discussion that followed it was
developed that Mr. MoCaw hud peti
tioned for an encroachment of ten feet
on College street, but In some manner
thut wus never fully explained the en
croachment committee had granted
him a five-foot oncrachmcnt on a thirty-
foot njley running through . from Col
lege to Mndtsou streets and that Jlr.
MeCuw had paid tho city $2 per run
ning foot for same, making the sum of
$80U, which he hud pnld into the city
treasury. Ail Injunction was issued,
however, restraining the city from de
livering the deed to Mr. MoOfiW, and
in this manner the matter now stands.
The 1-njuuotlon was Issued at tho In
stance of property owners. Tlie on-
croaihment committee said that while
It wus true thut the application for tho
encroachment on College street that
Mr. MoCaw lmd told ono of the com
mittee It was wanted on tlie alley nud
h:ul actually shown him what bo
wanted nnd tihnt tho whole misunder
standing arose over the failure of the
petition, which wat read and fully tlls-
cussod in open council at the time It
was made, to he more cxpllolt In what
tlie petitioner mtlly wanted. After al
most every alderman present hnd hud
something to say about It the resolu
tion granting the encroachment wus, on
motion of Alderman Collins, repealed
and the clerk Instructed to notify Jlr.
MoCaw that he could make another
application.
Alderman Dinkier Introduced an or
dinance creating the offices of a chief
aud assistant Inspector of sanitary
plumbing, to be elected by council, tho
chief Inspector to bo a practical
plumber of not less than eight years’
experience and who shall not, either
directly or Indirectly, be engaged In
any plumbing business.
Alderman Harris opposed the ordi
nance nnd said the city had .Hough
officer* uow. The ordinance wus re
ferred to tlie finance committee, on mo
tion of -U derma a Collins.
Chairman Sperry said the mayor had
requested leave of absence without
specifying how long he desired IL On
motion of Alderman Van the mayor
was granted Indefinite leave of ab
sence, and couucll adjourned. *

the pleasantest months here are August
and September, and indeed there bught
to be guest, at the hotel every mint:-
In the year, and I believe with the prop
er advertising Cumberland could- be
made an oUl-the-year-round resort. The
hotel could be filled halt the year with
Southerners and the other half with
our Nbrthern brothers, who could be
Interested and benefited all the time.
Just now when the summer guests are
all departing, -the trig halt are biting
furiously, and It is nothing for a small
party to get a boat load a day. Think
of tarpon, baas, sheepheud, trout and
drum alt -blUng from the same boat In
one day. Does any place under the sun
offer such a variety in fishing? And
yet we are letting this anjl other Islands
slip away from us because -we do not
know their value. Are all our beauti
ful Islands to -be bought up by the mll-
llonalres and fenced In for their own
pride and pleasure, to be guarded by
liveried flunkies who are ordered not to
permit horses to be driven fob near
the modern houses that occupy the site
where stood the mansions of the Greens.
Nightingales and such others, whose
hospitality was urtbonnded? Think of
the times that have fallen upon us In
this particular, and may the noble spir

home and country he so engaged with
“ministering unto them who shall be
heirs of salvation” that they shall never
know her generosity has given place to

A DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
A General Fusilade Ended In the Death
of Two Men.
Columbia, S C., Augr. 28.—This afternoon
at 2:30 o'clock abloody tradedy was en
acted at Blukevllle, whereby .Solomon
Brown and John Qrlbben, a dispensary
constable, were killed. The double kill
ing was the result of an old feud DeUween
Gribben and the influential Brown fami
ly. Grlbben went to the depot yesterday
and opened a case of dry goods, consigned
to Solomon Brown, ostensibly for the
purpose of seialns contraband whisky.
Simon Brown, the father of Solomon
Brown, met Grlbben on the street later
u*idl trsproachefcl him for opening the
package, accusing him of persecution.
The quarrel waxed warm and Brown was
Joined In by hls sons, Solomon, Isadote
and Herman. Grlbben offered to light any
one of them, and Isadore, 21 years old,
accepted the challlenge. Grlbben struck
at him, but the blaw want parred and
Brown knocked Grlbben down.
At this Juncture, pistols were pulled
and six or seven shots were fired in quick
succession. Gribben was shot through
the left shoulder nnd near the heart. He
staggered into a store, flrtng at the same
time at the Browns. A bullet struck Sol
omon Brown, who fell half way to the
ground. Grlbben continued hls firing,
and one bullet penetrated Solomon
Brown’s head, killing him Instantly. An
other bullet penetrated hls heart. When
Glbben s pistol was emptied, he walked
out of the store to the back yard, where
he fell and died in ten minutes.
There woa a general fusilade and it Is
asserted that others were engaged in it
tj. > 3&te9 the principals. Some contend
that Corojier H. P. Dycher, who was
standing in a store at the time, fired the
shot that killed young Brown. The coro
ner proceeded to hold an Inquest, how
ever. but the Sheriff arrived in the midst
of It and arrested him on a charge t
having been on accessory. Trial Justice
Hammett then empanelled a Jury and
tcok testimony In relation to Glbben’s
death. The verdict was that he was kill Id
by Herman Brown and that Simon nnd
Isadore Brown were accessories before and
after the foot. The inquest over young
Brown’s remains will be held tomorrow.
Tho town is now quiet.
