The most exciting race ever seen in that
section, was run on the South Carolina road,
a few evenings ago, ami is reported from Au
gusta.
An engine and train of can chasing a buck
on the track made the race.
It was a bright moonlight night, in fact, al
most as bright as day. The up South Caro
lina passenger train had just crossed the Edisto
river bridge, shortly after eight o’clock, when ;
Engineer Itoberts and his fireman spied a I
I large deer on the track, some three or four |
hundred yards ahead. The train moved on, i
but the bm k stof'd with head erect,
gazing at the approaching locomotive j
until it seemed that the cowcatcher would ,
strike it. At that moment, with a quick 1
movement, it wheeled and started off up the '
track at lightning s|s-ed. The engineer win
in f"ra race, having a straight track ahead,
and quickly opened his throttle. The ponder
ous machine bounded forward and then the
race commenced in earnest. Down the track,
at lightning sp< < ■!, ran the deer, closely pur
sui-dby the engine, the engineer at the throt
tle and the tiretn.in shoveling in coal, both do
ing their utmost to outrun the deer.
The conductor and passengers, wondering at
the rapidity of the train, quickly raised the
windows and popped their heads out to see a
sight never witnessed by any on" of them be
fore. No one was afraid, but all excited; in
fact, excitement reigned supreme. All could
see the beautiful buck ahead and in breathless
anxiety were awaiting the termination of the
race. Men cheered and ladies clapped their
hands, but on, on, like the wind sped the deer,
clearing ten to twelve cross-ties at a bound and
keeping' from twenty to thirty yards ahead of
the swiftly speeding train. The engineer and
conductor were even all excitement.
But “look ' look!” cried everyone, “the deer
is losing ground.” True it was. I'.te engine
commenced to gain slowly, hut perceptibly,
and in the next half mile the deer was only
a few feet in front, when suddenly it bounded
off the track and into the woods.
The most daring and successful revenue raid
ever accomplished in the south since the ser
vice was established, occurred last Sunday in
Pickens comity.
The raid was made by Colonel I. W. Alex
ander, one of the most intrepid officers in the ■
department, assisted by Deputy Stephen .
Colonel Alexander received intimation as
long ago as last Angust that the Pettit broth
ers, Moss and Turner, four notorious moon
shiners, were operating an extensive illicit
distillery somewhere in the neighlorhootl of
Jasper, in Pickenscounty. The revenue men I
followed up all clues and trails but would in
the end find themselves at fault. If there .
were any stills in that part of the country they ;
were ingeniously concealed, for tbo most per- I
sistent and vigilant endeavors of the deputies '
failed to discover them. Colonel Alexander i
was not discouraged, however, and he r D. cd :
that he would yet ferret out the m< :i<di:i;er~
and capture their Mill, lavst weekho i
certain information that i a s-<1 him t > locate i
the long-looked for distillery al-out five
miles to the west of Jasper. Accor iiugly he
pressed into sendee Deputy Sr phons, it. -of
his most trusty men, and pr- pared to make the i
raid. Saturday night f n-i him in the wo-- Is
adjoining th-- plantation on which he felt -un
tile still was hidden. He and his man laid .
quiet until shortly before daybreak Sunday,
when they stealthily crept toward a hole into '
which they had des. ribed several figures en- I
tering, and they listened. Suppressed voice’.
could be instiuctly heard below. Evidently
the officers w ere on the right track. They did
not remain in ; tite h ng. Their time’ had
come and they lowered th>-n. levs into the
opening. Their approach was observed by
some of the workmen, who gav*-the alarm anil
the moonshiners scampered it-.'ay. making j
their exit front the other side of the distillery. I
One of them was billowed si vcral hundred ;
yards, but, scaped, in th ■ darl.n-o . Asuxmas I
it was light enough to admit of a sei-.reh being '
made t -lonel Alt xander and Ids companion
thoroughly explored the subt- rraneatt distil- '
lery. It was a very extensive concern. '
There was an excavation about ■
thirty feet square. In it a one hundred gallon
still wm in operation. A large quantity oi
mash and luer w. s ft und, but no whisky could
bo discovered. I' was su’ s-'quentlv b urned
that tho molt hi-d curried o!T, the night before,
several hundred gallons of liquor. The distil
lery was fully equipped for turning out twenty
gallons of whisky a day. Tho raiders weto
puzzled to understand how tin- distillery could
have boon run without water. It is well under
stood, among all who are familiar with tho
business, that distilleries are always near
water. This site being far removed from any
witter course t tho reason, perhaps, why the
ottieers never before suspected its oxistence.
A clo-o examination of tho cavern
revealed tho secret. From tho
sides of a muddy log water was dripping.
The earth was brushed aside and the conduit
was found to be hollow trees joined together.
The e wooden pipes ran a distance of not less
than 2 yards. The way in which they were
connected showed considerable ingenuity. In
det d. the Interior arrangements all denoted the
well know ti cunning ot the moonshiner. All
that was valuable about tho still was saved,
but all else was destroyed.
After leaving this underground distillery
Hie rahlets became satisfied that they could
find another one ucar by. After some little
time and trouble they struck a fresh trail and
followed it successfully to the end. Only a
quarter of a mile away they seized another
underground distillery, nearly as extensive as
the other. This was similarly arranged ami
was found to have n capacity for a daily out
put of 15gallons. A largo quantity of mash
and beer was found. Tins was destroyed and
the copper still was saved. No arrests were
made, the owner and his men having beat u
I retreat upon the raiders' approach.
I About (our hundred y.uds from this place
i another large distillery was seized. This, too,
' was hidden under the ground. The ground
i 1 over it was cultivated, and the entrance and
i exits were cwnnitigly concealed from view.
; The interior arrangements were like those
I described.
. tToithe amii.-cment of the officers another sub
' terranean whisky manufactory wits run upon.
'l'his was about as large as the first. Just be
fore tho officers’approach tho workmen had
been busy, but|none of them were captured.
A good deal of material was hero destroyed.
I These four extensive distilleries wore situat
ed In a radius of one mile. They have been tn
, Operation for four or five years. ’ Their sci uro
; is regarded by Collector Crenshaw us a most
' important achievement. Since they started to
tho present time they must have made ten
thousand gallons of whisky.

Hodge Burnett, a young farmer, near Columbia
was found in the woods Tuesday, a mile
from his home, with his throat cut and a razor in
his hand. Tin- de .th of ills wife, a few days ago,

suicide.
While a little child, of Mr. Quarles, of Ridge
Springs, was playing around the wash tub, he
picked up a can of concentrated lye and swal
lowed a quantity of the deadly fluid, front the
efftfSlS of which he died in twenty-four

TWO MURDEROUS BROTHERS
Who Cut the Throat of Another One—The
Sickening
1 From the Et-fau’a. Ala., Times.
, Messrs. W. R. Brown and G. R. Lewis, from
Henry v-.unty, came in last night to give tho 1
Times a piece of news which evidences a dia- I
j bolism that is hard to believe can exist in this
country, Everybody in Barbour and Henry’
I count!- s knows Mr. Brad Johnson, one of the
be t and most popular men in that county. A
so-w years ago he was sheriff of Henry, aiid has
thousands of friends who will be shocked at
! the horrible crime we are to narrate. Living
with Mr. John on and his wife were Ben, C.
, JI., John and Robert Johnson, sons of the old
couple. They were thirty, twenty-seven, twenty
and eighteen years old, respectively. John and
Robert spent Thursday afternoon in Abbeville,
’ and when they went homo at night something
displ< aud th m, and together vvith Ben they
j returned to Abbeville, wi.cn Robert and John
got drunker th.m before. Coining home, about
' eight miles f-.om Abbeville, in beat fifteen,
j they found Charlie in bed and began to worry
' him. Finally Charlie got his gun and told
: them to go away or ho would hurt them. Ho
I then lay down across the bed with his gun by
; his side, thinking his brothers had gone to bed
I in another room.
I The boys, however, returned when Charles
I was asleep, snatched his gun away from him,
I and with their knives cut him all to pieees.
i Ho was cut all over the leg, in the back and
* through the groin. Their mother came into
. the room and they knocked her down. Their
I father, at the muzzle of a gnu, was made to
beg for mercy, and their brother-in-law had to
: h ave. The old people were forced to see their
' boy carved all to pieces, for resisting them as
Charlie was there could bo no hope that ho
! could overcome his powerful brothers. One
i of the boys, after tho killing, went down to
I their neighbor’s house, AV. R. Brown, and
1 wanted him to go up and see Charlie. Wright,
I the brother-in-law, had already been down,
and Br-.wn was acquainted with the situation,
I so ho shouldere d his gun and went with John
: son. He. found Charlie dead, the bed being
| covered with blood, and the evidence of tho
' hard st'uggle. Ono of the boys, when Brown
| canto out of tho house, acknowledged that
: they did it, whistled a lively air, danced a
' few ligurev, and together tho Cains went their
way into the night.
i lint Henry is stirred from center to circum
; ferenco and tho hoys, should they bo caught,
i will be hung without judge or jury. Brown
would have arrested them but there was no
one to help and, very properly, he was afraid
to undertake it.

TheConstiti'Tion is the easiest paper in tho
world to i iiiiva--for. A J you have to do is to
, show it ami everybody wants it. Here is an
other;
A Club of Five tn Fifteen Minutes.
Air. \V. Afilner writes from Reedy River,
S. C.
“Encl*a''-1 find fire dollars for club. I gut these
i names in fifteen minutes after I asked the first per
son to subscribe.”
I Everybody ktmm The Constitution and
1 knows it is the “st paper printed—biggest,
1 best and cheapest. You can get a club with
the sligliest effort.
She Is Delighted Witlr It.
Tub Constitution sowing machine is, next
to The t 'oNSTrri Tiox, the most popular thing
before tho public. Aliss Josie Allen writes
from Barnesville, Miss.;
Jam higrey f leased with my machine. It runs
well and does Its work rapidly ami efficiently, at d
I have no f<are as to the ultimate result.
We send this machine on trial for ten days,
and we guarantee if it does not satisfy we will
return the money. Here is another machine
letter;
It is Worth Double the Money.
Mr. O. Al. Walker, of Spring Valley, Ala.,
writes:
"The machine I bought of you gives perfect satis
faction. It is worth double the amount it cost. I
renew my subscription to The Constitution.”
That is the way they all write. We guaran
tee tho machine to bo better than any fifty-five
dollar machine, and if it is not, all you have to
do is to write us you do not think so, and your
money will be returned.
He Saw a Sample and Takes It,
Mr. Banks Clarke writes from Alount Blan
chard, Ohio:
“t saw n specimen copy of The Constitution and
am so plea-el with it it that I subscribe for one
year. It is a great paper.”
Air. Clarke will find The Constitution bet
ter every week. His sample copy was not
fixed up to catch him, but was just the ordi
narj- paper from the current week. We will
improve it every week.
Tlie Paper is Priceless.
Air. J. A. Foster, of Spartanburg, S. C.,
says:
‘Tut my name in your Christmas box. If I do
not get anything I will not be disappointed, for
your paper is priceless, and I will get that cer
tain.”
That is the way for every man to feel about
it. The Constitution is worth more than
the money charged for it. If you get one of
our Christmas presents it is that much gain.
If you do not you will have the best, and
cheapest paper in -'America anyhow.
They Could Not Do Without It.
Mr. G. AL Rhodes, of Forsyth, Ga.. writes:
“We could not do without The Constitution.
We look forward to its coming with as much pleas
ure ns to n friend’s visit.”
That is just our ambition. We want every
subscriber to feel when The Constitution
enters his itoor that a friend has come to see
him. A wise and cheerful friend and counselor.
Is a Marvel of Beauty.
Air. J. W. Bell, of Hendrix, Tennessee,
writes:
“The machine eame in due time and is Just as you
represented it. It is a marvel of beauty and we would
not exchange it for any forty dollar machine in the
country. You have our thanks.”
That is just what we claim. That it is bet
ter than any forty or fifty dollar machine in
the county i We have sold thousands of ma
chines and have had but two complaints.
Here is some more testimony on that point.
Air. Reuben Arnold, of Central, S. C.,
writes:
•‘My machine has been tested on every fabric and
is perl'c. t.r satisfactory. S >me of my neighbors
havefoit '.ve dollar machines forwhichl would
not exchange. Aline cost 817.00.”
Every man who buys a machine from us
rather than an agent saves from twenty-five to
forty dollars. That is why we are selling three
ro four hundred a month.
Got Five in an Hour.
Mr. C. AV. Andrews, of Beaukiss, Texas,
writes as follows:
"I received a sample copy of Tire Constitution
last Saturday, and in an hour got four subscribers,
with the money. We are all delighted with the
old Constitution. We wish you a grand sucess.”
There is hardly a man who reads this notice
that cannot in an hour get five subscribers,
llow many will do it? The Constitution is
tho easiest paper to canvass for in this country.
AViio will do as Mr. Andrews has done?
He Would Not Take Twice the Price for It.
Air. J. C. Bennett, of Athens, La., says:
"I received your Waterbury watch, and am de
lighted. I would not take double the price for it.”
THEY BURNED THE NEGROES ALIVE.
Tho Charge Was that the Prisoners Had
Assaulted Two Women.
Special in New York World. '
Dade City, Fla., December 14.—Living
near Learned, a few miles out from Owens
boro, is a well-known farmer named P. I).
Oberry. The Orange Belt railrofd, now build
ing, runs near that section and some four hun
dred negro hands are employed, many of them
from Georgia and Alabama and of the worst
character. Oberry is often absent from b.onie,
when a Airs. Johnson, living near there, a
relative of Airs. Oberry, generally keeps the
latter company. Sunday noon, while the two
women were alone in tho house, three negroes
entered and openly insulted them. They at
tempted to run, but the black wretches closed
the doors, rnd while one stood guard at tho
outside tho two others overpowered and as
saulted tho women. They kept them there
several hours, subjecting them to the most
brutal treatment, and then tied. The two
women, more dead than alive, managed to
crawl to a neighbor's and raised the alarm.
Horns soon brought out six or seven armed
horsemen 7nd they took up tho trail at once,
swearing vengeance.
RThey scoured tho woods that afternoon and
night and early Monday forenoon found two
suspicious negroes in hiding and arrested them
to carry them before tho women to be identi
fied. While retracing their steps a masked
party of ten rode up and demanded the
prisoners. They were given up and tho new
comers at once put ropes around their necks
and started off into the woods. The negroes
began to beg and plead when they were given
up and finally confessed their crime. Their
confession seemed to infuriate their captors
and their treatment of tho fiends is said to
bavo been horrible.
A big fire was built under the limb, and as it
began blazing the negroes were drawn up over
it, their quivering and writhing forms present
ing a terrible sight. It proved too much even
for the avenger’s, and a volley of shot was
poured into tho swinging bodies, killing them
instantly. The fire was then extinguished and
and a notice pinned on the tree that the bodies
must not bo taken down and that the next
r&visher would be burned alive. The masked
party then left, tho former searchers watching
the proceeding from a distance. No efforts
have been made to find out who the lynchers
are, nor w ill there be any.

ALLCOCK’S POROUS PLASTERS have successfully and triumphantly stood the
test of over thirty years’ use by the public; they have never been equaled by unscrupu
lous imitators who have sought to win a part of the reputation of ALLCOCK’s by making
piasters with holes in them, and claiming them to be “just as good as Allcocil’s.” >■
Allcock’s Porous Plasters stand to day indorsed by not only the highest medical
authorities, but by thousands of grateful patients who have proved their efficacy as a
household remedy.
