Interesting
Suit Closes
Special to The News.

Klough, presiding at the present term
of court here yesterday afternoor.
signed a writ of mandamus compelling
the Paris Mountain Water Company
to serve the residence of J. B. Poole
with water.
The case is an interesting one as it
affects directly the law governing the
action of public utility corporations.
Several months ago Mr. Poole leased
the house and moved in, finding the
water turned on. He later went to the
offices of the company to mawe a con
trace as required by the regulations
which the company is operating under
here. Mr. Poole was told at the of
fice that he would have to pay a back
debt of ?65 before the company would
give him a contract; this of course he
refused to do, declaring that it was not
his debt.. but the debt of a former oc
cupant of the house.
The suit has been hard fought; and
it is understood that there are many
other residents of the city which
have not been given a fair deal by the
company, who will take similar actions
to compel fair treatment.

Special to The News.
Union, S. C, Jan. 22. A remarkable
instance of the serious matter that can
follow a child's outburst of temper, is
reported today as having occurred in

boy became so enraged that after his
mother had gone away from home, in a j
spirit ot anger set tire to a large barn
and completely destroyed it with all
its contents. ....
The hay's father whose name is
,Andy Hamilton and lives on Dr. T. B.
Bates' place near Santuck and the
story that the direct cause of the burn
ing was due to the boy's anger, was
vouched for by several responsible
persons.
The barn was quite a: good sized
structure and contained, it is said
considerable forage. When the parents ;
returned home and found out what!
their offspring had done and that had !
caused it all, what they did may be j
imagined though at this juncture the i

A Negro Attacks Miss Kerr Near the

Another attempt on the part of a
negro to snatch the purse of a lady was
reported this .morning.
Miss Selma Kerr, who is a long-distance
operator for the Bell Telephone

was attacked by a negro just as she
was passing the north entrance of the
court house.
The negro was standing in the sha
dow of the magnolia trees at that en
trance, and just as Miss Kerr was
passing he made a grab at her gloves,
which she had in her hand. He thought
she held a purse, Miss Kerr screamed
and ran, and the negro ran down the
Ijasement steps of the court house.
Miss Kerr was so frightened that she
can give no clear description of the
man, and does not think that she
could recognize him again, but she
knows he was a negro.
The police have no clue as yet to the
guilty party.
