THE COUNTY DISPESSARY.
The Receipts for the Three Months OF Ru.i.
ness.

The County Dispensary has been in
operation now for three months. The
law requires the Dispenser to III Ike II
quarterly settlement with the treasurer
of the county, but this hrs nnt been
done, as we understand, by order of the
State Dispenser. The law it seems to
US is very plain on this poiut. But then
this Dispensary law is somewhat of a
law unto itself.
The County Dispenser hf7 filed a
statement of his sales for each month
with the County Auditor and turned
over to the town and county their pOr-
tions of the profits, but no quarterly
settlement has been bad.
From these monthly reports we
gather that for the month Of July the
total sales were $70i %.
Then the next report of the County
Dispenser states that the sales for July
and August were s436 70, and expenses
$4l2.71, having profit Of S24 OS to be
divided between the town and county.
The report for September puts the
sales at 81 ,307.lS, and the gross profits
at $4l0.79, which makes the total ST.
17.97. We confess that we do not
exactly understand these several reporto
but we give the facts as we find them.
The receipts to the County Treasurer
for the quarter were for July, nothing;
August, S12C4; September, SIP 6S.
We do not see how the Dispenser can
help making the quarterly settlement
unless his instructions from the State
Dispenser are paramount to the law.
But we only give the facts as we get
them.
Since the above was written we see
that Gov. Tillman says the quarterly
settlement shall be made for the week
ending October 81. and including the
month of July. This will include four
months in the first settlement. =.

Death of Miss Mary Butler Pope.


Last Thursday night, October 18th,
the gentle spirit of this sweet and
guileless girl took its heavenward flight
after an illness of about five weeks
with typhoid fever. She was the eldest
daughter of Judge Y. J. Pope and had
just entered her eighteenth year in the
unfolding beauty and freshness and
grace of ennobled young womanhood.
In the mystery of Gods permissive
providence the greater light of another
nome has been removed, and that
home heavily eurtained by the'sombre
shadow of death; saddened beyond ex-
preston by the final departure of a
daughter tenderly beloved-one who
was the pride, the joy and the promise
of that home.
The gifts and graces of Miss Pope's
heart and mind were many. She MAS
bright, devoted student, and was
anXiousiy hoping to return to her
studies in the Woman's College at Bal
timore, Md, where she was Justly es-
teemed and admired, but she has been
called to perfected school where the
lessons are luminous, complete, rest
ful and satisfying forever.
She was not member of the church
by baptism, but her heart was in the
church and she was looking forward to
the joyous moment when she should
be consecrated to religious life.
This affliction has fallen heavily
upon the devoted family, and the COM
sympathizes very sincerely
with it in its unmee sured grief.
