THE OLD MANS QUEER IDEAS.
He Locks the Barn at tho Close OF q
CoIorsd Revival-A True Story.

Written for the Dispatch.l
Old Uncle Simon was queer old darky,
and was, perhaps, about as honest as the
times would allow. but in one thing he
was lacking-charity. He did not have
much faith IN the honesty OF his race.
One day be came to my place Just after

THE HUDSON DECISION.

COLUMBIA. S. c.. July s.-Judge. Hud-
son decision in the Darlington Glspen-
sary case was brief. He said he would file
his reasons later An injunction was ASK
ed tor on the ground that the dispensary
law was unconstitutional, and that j. Il.
Floyd. who was appointed dispenser, did
not have o majority of free-holder voters
upon his petition for appointment. The
main point upon which Judge Hudson de-
cided the law unconstitutional was that
the State takes business from lndivlduals
and creates O monopoly in 1t for itself;
that prohlbitory laws are constitutional,
but that the Evans bill Is not such law.
but, on the contrary. is law for revenue
or profit. He also said that the famous
Wilson act of Congress does not prohibit
a railroad from bringing from without the
State lQuor to citizens within the
State. When the sale OF liquor is pro-
hibited by the State law citizen cannot
sell it.. but If il is his property railroads
can deliver il to him This opinion OF the
Wilson act was given parentnetically and
does not bear on the case at issue. Judge
Hudson further decided that Floyd's ap-
pointmeat was illegal. as he did not have
a majority of freehold voters upon his
petition. The Judge therefore issued an
order restraining the county board and
Mr.. Floyd from opening dlspensary until
further order of the court.

The army fuel. forage and straw con-
tracts for the department OF Arizona
were let last Wednesday at Denver.
The contracts involve about 81 ,000, COO
for supplying the seventeen posts in
Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colo
RADIO. Among the successful contractors
are Goldman q Co., of PhnnIx, who
will furnish to Fort Bowie 10000
pounds of barley at $1.4lIs; to Fort
Grant $50, 600 pounds at $1.43; TO Fort
Huachuca 10000 at $l.36. II is also
pleasing to observe that many other
contracts are distributed, though not
among contractors who live in Phoenix
or the valley, still among men who will
naturally and necessarily draw their
supplies from the fertile region OF the
Salt River valley. A study Of the list
of the contractors and the posts which
they are 10 supply shows greater vol
ume of the material will come from
Maricops county than from any other

A Clergyman at BlairgoWie Treats

LONDON, Sept. 16 Il Associated Press. ]
The sensation Of the day here is an
attack made yesterday upon Mr.. Glad
stone by the Rev. Davies. Mr.. Glad
stone, ii appears, attended church yes
terday at the Episcopal church at Barr
gowie, and the sacred editice, in honor
OF the premier's visit, was packed with
people anxious to see the great Liberal
leader, On previous Sundays, IL would
seem, the church mentioned has not
been crowded with worshipers.
Rev. Frederick Davies, who was to
preach the sermon, publicly insulted
Mr.. Gladstone by refusing to shake
hands with the venerable statesman
before the service. In addition, during
his sermon, the clergyman vehemently
condemned the people present for, as be
claimed, coming to church for an IN
worthy motive--to worship creature
rather than the Creator.

One of the strangest superstitions OF
Cinnamon is the awe with which they
regard the cockroach, John holds the
ugly black pest as something sacred,
claiming that it is specially favored by
the gods and a particular favorite of
the great Joss. The most unfortunate
mishap that can befall a Chinaman is
to step on a coclroaeh. Instantly
visions of terrible disasters and calami-
ties arise before him. In some in
stances the superstition has been
known to prey so on the minds of the
Celestials as to drive them insane. As
a result of this state of affairs, China
town is overrun with cockroaches, and
a Chinaman would as soon think OF
killing himself as Of killing one OF
them.
