whatArc Revenue Officers For,

MIR. EDrroR: While in attendance
upon the recent term of court the
above question was brought forcibly
to my mind. At no court since the
days when three or four bar rooms
were III full blast in our county town,
has there been more whiskev sold
and drank in the town Of Pickcns
1t is currently reported that from tif-
teen to twenty gallons of illicit whis-
key was sold on Tuesday night of
court week under the very caves Of
the court house. Now, the question
is, how is it that this traffic can be
carried on with Sppunity right under
the nose of the officers, both State
and Federal, without any one being
brought to accQput for tho act. If
those whose duty it is, will not act,
the grand jury:should look after them
and make thend suffer for their ncgli-
genco. 1t seems to me that if the
Revenue men would try they could
work up cases Of violation against
transgrcssors within Il mile or two Of
Pickcns, as we'll as they can against
men at the foot Of Table Rock. Let
them explain if they can. l SAW.

This was The membership four and

cral thousand members have been re-
ceived into the order and nearly q
hundred sub-Alliances organized. A
correct estimade of the membership
at the present time would approximate

The object of the organization be-
ing the improvement of the farming
class, it is advised as a step in the
right direction that every member
buy all his garden and grass seeds
from SLOAN Bros. Drug Store, at
Greenville. They will get full value
for their hard earned cash both in
quantity and quality. Advt.
A London newspaper relates an
incident, which will give an illustra-
ton of how law seeks to cure abuses,
vices and crime, by abuses, vices and

supports his mother and FIVE broth
ers and sisters by delivering news
papers, is laid up with influenza.
That his earnings may not be lost
to the family, one of his sisters, un-
der 10 years of age, volunteers to do
his work for him. For permitting
this the mother is promptly prose,
cuted and fined, with the alternative
of imprisonment. Some one paid
the fine for her. Meanwhile, mark

An Invention that VIII be Hailed with
.HnX The World Onnr


School Commissioner John G. Ca
pers stands in the eyes of the male
portion of suffering humanity of this
world hero. lie has just success
fully invented and is now preparing
to have manufactured q simple attach
ment to the suspender that will do
away with brceches buttons and con,
sequcntly all the agony that attaches
to mankind by the falling off and
breaking of buttons on the trousers
No longer will it be found necessary
to cut holes and put sticks and pins
in the place of the departed buttons;
| no longer will the bachelor mourn
over his "lonesomencss" and kick
himself for not marrying some sweet
maiden who was handy with the nee
die; no longer viii family quarrel3 be
generated by an irate husband who is
unable to get q "bustcd" button sewcd
on no longer will male members of
the church lose their religion because
the only remaining button on their
breeches gives way under the press
ure of their weight.
The model Of the new patent was
shown News reporter by NJ. Ca
pers. IT is a small appepdage not
over an inch and q half in length
and is attached to the ends of the
suspenderD. 1t has q clamp which is
placed on the Dreeches and clamp
spring fastens it to them in such Il
way that it will not release the "grip"
until the spring is pulled back. The
inside Of the clamp is of rubber and
and there is no danger of tearing the
cloth, as with tne famous "bachcior
button" Th appendaGe is made Of
brass or steel and is nickel plated
The part that fastens to the brecchcs
resembles n button and can hardly be
distinguished from one.
DIR. W. NJ. Norwood, who is inter
estcd in the patent, has just returned
from Philadelphia, where he had the
model made. He finds that the cost Of
a pair of suspenders with these novel
appendages will not be over three
and half or four cents more than al
present. Some fatterlng pecuniary
offers were made for the patent by
novelty makers and suspender manu-
facturors, but all offers have been re-
fused, as the owners see in the simple
but Ingenious little appcndaGe a bo-
nonza. The clamp can also be used
to faston scarfs, hang up linen of any
kind and will be found useful in dis
play windows and numerous other
places. eenvillc News.
