Homicide in Que whiffle. Deputy Sheriff J. D. Currie brought in to town this morning and lodged in jail Lawrence Rowland charged with killing Tom Crowder, in Quewhiffle Thursday. The homicide occurred on Mr. J. E. Buc hanans farm. Rowland and Crowder were playing snapping guns at each other when Rowland's acoidently exploded, sending a load of shot into Crowder's head, killing him instantly. It is said that the killing was purely an accident. If such is the case, the boy should be discharged. Deatruetion of the Fence Continues. Thursday night the upper end of the Flea Hill fence, from the Kyle branch to the old McDuffie -place, was attacked by a mob and destroyed. Messrs. W. H. H. Wade and Josiah Cook, the commissioners, were in the city to-day, and reported the matter to the authorities. Great excitement prevails in the dis trict, and serious trouble is feared at any moment. , A number of persons are suspected, but no tangible evidence can be had against them. Bkckman Grumpier. The Rev. Blackm&n Crumpler, the apos tle of sanctification, who has been crea ting so mush religious excitement in the country districts, is coming to Fayette ville. He is described as a short stout man with low forehead and dark hair. He has just closed a meeting at Autrey ville, which brought together enormous crowds. It is said that on last Sunday over 2,000 people assembled to hear him. During the meeting there were 81 sancti fications and hundreds of conversions. One old man arose and said that a week before he was in despair and had decided to "bunch rags with the devil and fight him no more, but since hearing Blackman Crumpler he was a converted man." His manner of speech is unique and his gestures odd. It is said that in his enthusi asm he jumps six feet from the floor with out apparent exertion, and at times throws his head back and laughs so heartily that it becomes contagious. His doctrine is thatafter being converted one can be absolutely sinless. H says that he was a terrible boy so bad that he was shunned by everybody, but since being converted ten years ago, he has not committed one sin. He carries a tent with him, the seat ing capacity of which is about 1,200. He says he will be here some time in June. Capt. Jesse Kyle is sinking rapidly and is not expected to live many hours. Mr. Jack Burnett, one of the most pop ular commercial men who visit Fayette ville, is in the city. People and their Movements. Col. Cook left last night for Savannah on steamboat business.
