Stodilart and I wit dowu near the right edge of the right hand row of mils. The dramatic critics of the dillcrciit pa Hrs were thick ahout us, some ol them with their wives or women friends, others with fellow news imiier men. I'rohalily then linn liecii no other tragedy in New York where so many iicwspitper men were present. At the end of llie first act Klotl dart and I strolled hack to the rear of the garden where we sat down and watched the coph. The uighl was cool and pleasant, the stars alsive bright aud clear, we were high nlsive the city's noise ami only a faint murmur of it reached our ears from the pavement lielow. It was a typical summer show crowd, rare free, good humored and out for a good time. We watched the crowd w ith interest the dainty, well dressed women iu cool attire, the smart looking men, as they lolled hack in their Heads Ripped their drinks, laughed aud talked. Htoddart and I talked ol New York's ability to forget its trouble at nightfall, its fierce hur ry and hustle during the day, its careless, gayety at night. Toward the close of the second act a tall, rather slim young fellow came in and walked nervously up and down on the outside of the ta ble. We merely glanced at him, thought it strange thai lie should Im wearing a straw hat and hii over coat together oil a warm night, and then forgot him to watch the play. The orchestra bad just struck up the music of a song called "I could love a Million II iris," when a pis tol shot rang out, quickly followed by two ot tiers. A Unit 2.1 feet on our right stood the young man of the straw hat aud overcoat, staring downward w ith wide open eyes and holding a large, black revolver in his hand from which a wisp of moke was Hosting. Vmler the curl of a big white ostrich plume, in the hat of a woman on our right, we caught glimpse of a large, heavy-built man as hi head sank tipou a till ile, resting there for an instant, then toppled to the floor. Meantime the young man of the straw hat cto'.ly turned Ummi his heel, broke his pistol, and holding it high in the air alsive his head, upside down, with the barrel point ing backward. ausM-ndiug it by a finger under the trigger guard, walked steadily to thedisir.glanred hack over his shoulder at the crowd with a look of triumph and waved his pistol at them Mockingly.

It all seemed so un real, people had thrown off their troubles for the time being aud they tlHlii t want to lielieve that one man had walked up and shot au other down la-fore their eyes. A woman in whilesprang to her feet with a stittetl scream ami top pled over into the arms of her cm roil, while he held Iter closely and stared at the body before biiu as if daed. Meu sprang up, shoving their chairs back, aud gazed at the prostrate figure with protruding eves. There had leeii so much racket on the outside of the stage during the performance that the people over on the left thought that the shots were merely part of the ser lormauce, especially as one of the comedians ou the stage had just said to another: "I challenge you to a duel. " Ihevdid not eveu rise, but wailed for the ei formanoe to go ou. The orchestra leader sprang to his feet. "Strike un the music! lay '." he shouted to his men, wav nig Ins arms wildly, "tio on Sing!" lie called to the people ou the stage. I lie chorus responded bravely, but the women begau to falter and one or two of llieni faint ed. A turmoil begau on the right side ol the danleu and men were hunting to each other hoarsely. It was useless to try to keep up the any longer. IVople now real i.cd that something appalling had happened. The stage manager in bis shirt sleeves leaMtl on a table. "IjkIics and gentlemen," he called in a strident voice, "an accident has lisppeucd and the performance can not continue. Please go out at once and as quietly as possible." 'I he Htage people now crowded out upon thertsif. The chorus girls in a jot attire mingled with the Hpee tutors, their skins showing ghastly white under the coatings of red paint. They clung to any and ev ery Issly, begging them to tell what had happened. The first spasm of alarm had now passed. The audi ence as a whole retained its cool ness to a remarkable degree. There was no mad panic, such as might easily have hapM,ncd, no chorus of shrieks aud screams from the wo men, un tumbling over each other on the part of the men. They had uow recovered their normal calm and began to file out in orderly f.ishiou. One woman, whose neck sparkled with jewels, merely glanc ed curiously at the bmly as she pu.weil anil laughed lightly at some remark by her male escort. A few women screened their faces with fans, some eyed the body cisdly enough, others hatl to Is? restrained by their escorts from taking a close look at the dead man. Slisldart and I, of course, in stantly realized that we were re porters and that there was a story to be gotten at once. And so we Istth proceeded to get busy. For a long time no one seemed to know anything. No one seemed to know who the dead mau was, no one knew who had shot him. A circle of men quickly gathered about the prostrate body. It was the form of a large, heavy man with thick, brick -colored hair. The neck was short aud thick, the hands fat and pudgy. He did not resem ble in the slightest degree the liOthario and fascinator of women he was afterward reputed to lie. It is a remarkable fact that uot a man in the circle, and many of them were his friends, sisike a gotsl word for the man whose bhssl was slowly trickling from the gaping wound iu the face and spreading out into a hmi1 on the bricks of the nsir. "Well said one man, "Hlamlford White has got his." That seemed to be the verdict of the entire group. Stanford White had hail his gotsl tune and now lie paid his price. And this was Stan ford While, a man of brains and force, artist and designer, whose artitecture is famed over two con tinents, who drew the plans of some of the most beautiful structures in New York, who planned the struct ure on which he was killed-shot dowu like a dog by a pistol in the hands of a weak minded man over worthless woman. It was uot un til afterwards that we learned that the woman wbo flew to Thaw's side as he passed through the door waa his wife, hvelyn Ntwbit Thaw. mouths agXt a set of harness was Htoleu from a gentleman of that ueighlMtrhiNMl, and altout four uiouths later another set of harness disnpMared iu the ssiiie neighlstr hood. Iloth events had alsmt beeu forgotten by every one eirept the losers of the harness until Sunday uight a week ago, when snot her set was stolen. The last two sets belonged to Mr. James Helms, and be aud his neigh bors made determined search for the person who seemed to have a mania for stealing harness. The place where mule had been hitched near the place where the last set bad been stolen, was fount! and the track of the mule was fol lowed to the house of Mr. James Aruett, mau who, up to that time, had borne a blameless repu tat ion. Mr. A melt deuied all knowledge of the harness, but a warrant was issued for his arrest. Iast Friday he bad a preliminary hearing Is-fore Ksq.

I Miring the trial Arnett still de nied stealing the harness, but after it was over he weakened ami con fessed that be was the thief. He theu carried several persons to a point ou Negro Head creek and fished all three of the sets out of the water where he had concealed them. The harness had Is-en rut to niHCeN etui wmm wortlilcNS. Ihe strange thing shout Arnf it J crime is that he did not steal the harness for use, hut to revenge himself iiimiii is-rsons who were calling on a young lady of the iieighlsirhiMMl who had refused to receive attentions from him. The three sets of harness were stolen while sons of the owners of the liar ness were at the home of the young lady iu question. Saved His Comrade's Life.

Charlotte Ckrnt-I "Anything out of the ordinary hapiMuiiig in South Carolina poll tics at pit-went?" asked a t'hrouirle rrH.rtcr of m-wspaer man from the Palmetto btate at the Central this moruing. "Well, we are just now in the midst of the biennial county to- county canvass made by the cauui dates for Slate offices, and, while cannot say that the campaign has so far been productive of anything sensational, it is not without inter esting features. There is probably more politics in South Carolina to the square inch thau in any other Southern State our people talk silitiiK from year's end to year's end. hsM-cially has this leen true since Senator lillman entered po litical life sixteen years ago. At present the matter of contention our affairs is the Slate liquor (lis pensary, which was established by Governor (now Seuator) Tillman iu l.Vi.'l. There are seven candi dates in the Held for Governor, each of whom is called upon to state bis view s ou the liquor que tion. Of these candidates one or two favor the retention of the cen tral or State disNusary, located iu Columbia, with sub dispensaries in the various counties, while others are urging the alxilisliineiit of the Stale diH'iisary and advocating the plan of allowing each county to decide whether it shall have a dispensary, under the control of the count) ollicials. "At least one candidate forfiov eruor is an out and imt prohibi tionist. That this particular can didate, who, by the way, is a preacher, will Im defeated is a fore gone conclusion, for our soplo are not yet ready for prohibition at least not for the kind of prohibition that is uow Is'ing tried under the Itrice act iu several counties which recently voted out the disH-usary, only to see blind tigers innumerable started up in their midst. During the last year the affairs of the disH'iisary have been nuclei investigation try a legislative com mittee, uppointed iu Itin.i. The corruption brought to light in the management of the institution fur nishes the chief topic, for discussion in the campaign, with each candi date urging the voters to accept his views as to the best solution of the question. A change in the manner of conducting the a flairs of the (lis H'iisary iu inevitable, for the peo pie will not longer submit to the charges of graft, etc., which have been buzzing in their earssiiiee the work of the investigating commit tee liegan. The work of this com mittee, of which .1. Eraser Lyon is the chairman, has been Consider ably disci-edited recently, however, by the refusal of the Attorney -(Jen-eral to institute proceedings against the alleged chief grafters, on the ground that the evidence of their guilt was not suflirient to warrant such proceedings. This, together with the charge that Lyon is some thing of a grafter himself, in that he accepted pay for his services both as a representative in the Leg islature and as a memlier of the in vestigating committee, is sure to quiet, to some extent, the opposi tion to the State dispensary. Then, too, Senator Tillman is taking a hand in the light, throwing bis in fluence in behalf of the institution. "As between the candidates for Governor, it is generally thought that Tillman is favorable to Hirh ard I. Manning of Sumter, who is advocating the retention of the present system, with the enaction of such law as will guarantee the elimination of all opjHir! unity for graft While Tillman, as I said, ? ..

The work of this committee apears to have Is-eu inaugurated by the employuieut ol a little Yankee detective who seems to have heen more successful in making trouble for the individ ual members of the committee thau iu ferreting out graft. 'Due of the things this detective did was to tell Lyon that somelssly said Ttllmau, while Governor sev eral years ago, had accepted a brilie iu the sha of piano to use his influence in behalf of a certain dis tilliiy company in the purchase of liquor for the disjieiiKary. Lyon, already considerably pulled up over uewspaMr notoriety, thought he would make a teu strike sure, so be hied himself to a uewspaier oflice and poured his wonderful discovery into the willing ear of a reporter. The publication of the rumor created a sensation through out the State, but was at once met with a denial by Senator Tillman, who proved that he bought the piano from M. A. Malone, a Colum bia music dealer, two years liefore the establishment of the dispensary was considered. Lyon did not do the right aud manly thing by ad mitting the mistake, but insisted that the story was true. So Till man took advantage of the oppor tunity offered by the presence of .'Mmhi people in Columbia Monday night to completely squelch Lyon The young man will hardly be elected attorney general of South Carolina this year."

In lat week's isiie of The Pro gressive Farmer Mr. McDowell of Merkleuhurg wist-ly calls attention to the importance of a rotation of crois and of the value of row s-as in the rotation. In a later issue we shall discuss this quextion of rota tion, but at present we wish to re state a few old facts alsmt the val ue of the coWea. These facts aiv know n, but not practiced to the ex- teut which our soil conditions de mand, and it may strengthen the faith ot some or induce ot Iters to make greater elloits to overcome the dillicullies iu the wav of iu creasing the acreage iu cow s-as to go over some ol the ground again. r or t lie re are real d i llicii 1 1 ie i u t he way of many farmers sowing all the cowpeasthey should. Kieipieutly the land is hard and ditliiiilt to break; other work is pressing ami work stis'k is short or inn down from the cultivation of the corn aud cotton; or sted is scarce or high priced Isrause of the neglect or exsnse ol gathering or harvest ing the s as. .None of these el i Its cullies would Is- insurmountable alter a year or two of real clloit to overcome tln in, providing thisef fort were backed up by a full up preriatiou of the value of Die crop. There is much dilleienc -of opin ion regarding the economy of sub soiling, but practically none con cerning the advantages of dii'M'ii ing the soil by gradually increas ing the depth of plowing.

The alsive are certainly not un important reasons w hy the cow pi a should 1st sown this month on all stubble lauds. Hut there is still the old und Is'tter known reason.

Duggar of Alabama got f III. - ti.'i worth of pork from an acre of cowM'its, with live hogs Helling at three cents per pound, and at least fifty of the sixty pounds ol nitrogen referred to alsive wits still left on the ground.

How to Get Married. ri A young farmer from tlio country Who started out in life, With a suit of SIK1',S' clothing To look for him a wife. Ue had but little trouble We are told, on this score, For the very day lie bought A suit from SIKHS' store. He looked much better then Than he did for a long w hile, And when he walked aUmt town The girls began to smile. A suit of SIKI'.S' clothing Made a change for the best: lie looked a new man next morning With new coat, pants and vest. No matter where he travelled I'pnn train or car or bunt. This man from MKKS' store Would surely get a nolo. One day he got a note I'" rum the prettiest girl in town, And when he answered it She ordered her wedding gown. So it's now the fanners' fashion To buy SIKKS' clothing, the lssst; Just buy a suit (nun him And the girl will do the rest. So come on now and be customers And follow in the race; If this is not enough said I will next time ask for more space. I'm sure it is not worth telling About my shoes, shirts and hats; If you give me a look and full to buy You will be blinder than bullliats. Buford tow nship with all its Finchrrs, Htarnt'8, tinllina and Hoiks, Stick to my gixxis closer Than do the Masons or the Elks. Don't forget my groceries, Flour, corn and hav; Fail to buy from VANS SIKK8, You wiil certainly be sorry some day. Buggies, wagons and surrics, Disc harrows and wheat drills; If you buy from other concerns It will be worse for you than calo mel pill. Bridles, harness and saddles All for you to buy; If rou fail to buy from me You will fool sad on the 4th of July. iiftti f iie'terv. ami .7 " ii mi n1 1 n ei-itsi f i ,.
