To Rule the Sherif,

The Columbia Journal, yf last Wed
nesday, says: "Sheriff Cathcart may
be ruled for contempt Of a trial justice.
It all arises out Of the case of "Dr." Pc
ter Davis, colored, charged with hoo
doolng' an Orangeburg German. Day-
is was arrested several times, but each
time released. A warrant was sworn
out In Orangeburg few days ago,
charging him with obtaining money
under false pretences. He was arrest
ed yesterday, the warrant having been
properly countersigned. John McMss-
ter representing Davis, went before
Trial Justice Clarkson, waived q pre-
liminary examination and the defend
ant gave bond for his appearance at
Orangeburg at the next term of court.
Judge CIarkson then issued an order
for Davis discharge, but Sheriff Cath
cart, it seems, refused to recognize this
order. Mr.. McMsster then brought ha-
beas corpus proceedings before both
Trial Justices Clarkson and Stack. This
was aoout II o'clock last night, Dav-
is discharge was again ordered, but
the sheriff says he did not receive the
papers in this case until the prisoner
had left on the train for Orangrburg.
Mr.. McMaster claims that the order Of
discharge ought to have been suf1 ;ient
without writ of hab.as corpus aud
Will ask for rule to show cause why
Sheriff Cathcart should not be punished
for contempt of cJurt."

Clearing Hou.e Corttdca cafes.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-Mr. Nc
Laurln, Of South Carolina, was before
the committee on banking and currency
this morning He spoke in reference
more particul, ,ry to the clearing house
certificates ISSUED by the banks OF
Columbia, S e., upon which q 10 per
cent tax had been threatened. Hr
read telegram showing that $50 OOO
had beeu issued payable January l, 1894.
The discussion was as to whether The
tax should be- paid by the association
issuing the certiiceties or by all who
circulated them. There was a vast
difference of opinion IN the committee,
which led to hot argument among the
members. Messrs Springer, Warner
and Hall claim the tax must be paid
every time the note is passed. MT.
Brosius combated this idea. Mr.. Nc
Laurin said that 1t was a matter OF
doubt. The sentiment of the commit
tee is in favor Of Immediately reporting
the bill. Mr.. Turpin, of Alabama, was
heard in favor of his bill to allow the
national banks to lend money on real
estate.

Keaping q Wife Young.

A certain amount of social life is
absolutely essential to all OF us-to
the old as we'll as to the young, writes
Edwaad w. Box in pertinent article
ON mans inability to see things as
others see them, in the May Ladies
Home Journal. A woman never grows
80 old that she ceases to enjoy the COM
pany of others, and generally the older
she grows the more she enjoys 1t. 1t
is always a pity to see man fall into
q state which he explains by saying:
ooh, we are getting old, and don't care
for 80 much variety In our lives" In
the pure unselishness of his soul he al
WAYS speaks of "us" and I'VE, as II 1t
naturally follows that because he is
getting anticipated his wife must keep
pace with him in his decline. Men all
too often make their wives too old.
1t is a greater credit to husband to
keep his wife young than to make her
grow old. His actions and bis habits
necessarily influence those of his wife.
Let him keep in touch with the world,
and both he and his wife will be the
better and the younger for 1t. I like
to see m an proud Of his wife because
she keeps young. Old age Is beautiful
and has its advantages; but q man
makes a great mistake when he rush
es q woman unnecessarily toward 1t.
And he does 1t most perfectly when he
deprives her of those enjoyments which
every man should give bis wife. No
economy is 80 false, 80 hollow and 80
misguided as that which seeks to with
hold one pleasure from the life of q
good woman, a true wife or loving
mother. The best home man can
give woman becomes "poky" as one
lady know expresses it, if ahe Is ask.
ed to live in 1t three hundred and sixty
FIVE days out of every year. The good
Lord knows that womsn's life In this
world is hard enough. She travels q
path of endurance and suffering, to
which man, be he ever so heavily af-
ficted, is an entire stranger. It Was
given to man to make that path as
pleasant, as easy and as bright as pos
sible. Every dollar which the man
spends for the happiness of woman
of his home will come back to him In
double, yea. In four.fold measure.-Se-

VIII Escape the Tax,

WASHINGTON, Oct 25.-The House
Committee on Banking and Currency
today heard Representative Brawley of
South Carolina, in support OF his bill to
suspend the operation Of laws lmpos-
ing a tax of ten per cent. upon notes
issued by banks during the late period
Of strlngency-August to October.
Brawley said that during this period
a number Of South Carolina banks had
issued clearing house certificates,
which had circulated throughout the
State and done much good. The Col
lector of Internal Revenue had been
making inquiries as to the amount OF
such notes issued with view, it was
understood, Of collecting the tax Of ten
per cent, levied on State bank Issues.
The government did not provide cur
rency of sufficient elasticity to meet
the stringency. The banks were forced
to do something. The action Of the
Collector of Internal Revenue had
hurt the circulation of certificates.
Johnson (Rep) Of Indiana asked il
Brawley or any member of the com
mittee had consulted the Commissioner
VI 1sCfCuuC III lOSch1o w OhO
issues and ascertained whether or not
be had decided to try to collect tax
on them.
No one had. Mr.. Brawley thought
that the action of the collector showed
that the Treasury De ,artment would
endeavor to tax those notes.
Warner (Dem.) of New York said
that he was in favor of reporting the
bill and removing the doubt. He did
not think the government should take
advantage of any technicality in the
law AID tax these lots which had been
issued IN a case necessity.
The New York banks. he said, had
issued $4,000 O96 Worth of notes dur
ilg the period of s'ringen y. He did

After the hearing the committee con-
sldered the bill aud referred it t. sub.

then adjourned to that day.

TO AMEND MINING LAWS.
A BILL introduced Which Settles the
Character Of Mineral Land.

Washington, Oct. 25.-Representat tative
Camminetti has introduced a bill to
amend the mining laws by adding to sec-
tion 2335 several provisos, which were
recommended by the mining congress
recently in session. They read as fol-
lows:
provided, that the presence of rock in
placers bearing gold, silver, cinnabar,
petroleum or other valuable minerals
shall be regarded as presumptive evidence
that the land containing the same is and
has always been of mineral character; and
provided further, that in investigating
the character of land with view to as
certaining whether it is more valuable
for mineral than agricultural purposes,
evidence may be taken of the mineral dis
covered or developed adjacent to such
land, proof of which shall be presumptive
evidence that the land in question is
mineral in character; and, provided fur
ther, that wherever land is proven to be
within well-defned mineral belt, such
land shall be deemed, presumed and taken
to be, and to have been mineral lands,
unless the contrary is proved; and, pro-
.vided further, that the officers Of the land
department of the government in con-
STRUNG the provisions Of the law relative
to the acquisition of title Of the govern
ment to its mineral by its citizens shall
construe and apply the same with great
liherality, with view to aid the on
pficant in procuring such title; and that
the rules and regulations prescribed -by
said department for its government and
that of its officers in disposing Of said
lands shall be SO formulated and adminis-
tered as to assist the government in dis,
posing Of said lands to bona-flde appli-.
cants, and not so as to impede said sale
or impose onerous burdens on ap-
plicants.
