The United States Circuit Court ever
since last Thursday has been the scene of
one of the greatest legal battles that has
ever been fought in this State. Some Of
the arguments in the registration case
would, to use the language of an eminent
lawyer, 'tgrace any court IN the
Union, do credit to any lawyer, the
best not excepted" The high compliment
was paid by this gentleman after hearing
Attorney General Barber for the registra-
ton law and Mr.. C. a. Douglass against it.
General McGrady, who is assisting the
State in a most able and dignifed manner,
showed up the inconsistency Of Dr.. Samp-
son Pope, and made this lawyer-doctor and
man Of many occupations squirm like On eel;
to such an extent that Sampson, became
shorn ofhis strength, pleaded with the court
for protection.

On reading the News and Courier this
morning we felt inclined to take big
draught of Hoods Sarsaparilla to dispel
s'that tired feeling" which came over US as
we read the return Of Commissioner Nixon
in the contempt proceedings before Judge
Gof in Columbia yesterday. Commissioner
Nixon no doubt was acting under the ad-
vice of his lawyers, but all the same, his
return to the court that he meant no de-
fiance, and is ready and willing at all
times to respect the court, has the ring OF
q cracked bell about it.

Wednesday, May S, 1895.

The silver craze has taken possession of
the Western States and is spreading like
wild-fre. Every indication points to a
fierce battle for free silver in the next ma
tional campaign. From now on the people
will hear of silver, gold, monometalism
bimetallism and other financial 'tisms' to
their hearts content, and when it is oil
over and the politicians take their seats
the people will still be plowing on and
wondering when times will get better.

column, was shot by one of our soldiers.
He fell from his horse, the latter con-
tinuing on the run until he reached our
lines. He was captured and ridden by
the man who
FIRED THE FATAL SHOT.
At the time it was stated the home Of
the Confederate was in Columbia and
his rank was Lieutenant Colonel.
Day and night, from the Tennessee
River to Columbia. our handful of men
had worked with heroic courage to keep
back Hoods advancing hordes. The
main part of his army was in our rear.
Col Capron received % orders from his
superiors while falling back, telling him
'what to do and what not to DO"
Gen. Schofield, with the Secretary of
War, visited Rock Island Arsenal in
May, 1889. We met him at the Harper
House, in Rock Island. In conversing
with him an allusion was made to Hoods
advance, and to Capron's Brigade being
in tight place on the retreat.
Gen. Sohoo.s:cld said to me when he
wrote his first dispatch at Pulaski and
started it by courier to Waynesboro
he had no doubt that our brigade was
captured. / spoke of being at Head
quarters when the dispatch was received,
and in few minutes | moved out wish
the advance-guard to cover the roads and
keep the enemy from striking us on our
retreat. Our prompt action after the re-
ceipt of the order enabled us to get out
In good shape.
Gen. Schofeld also referred to the
morning of Nov. "a, when the cavalry
stampede occurred, as already described.
He said our command had done great
service in holding Hood back, and until
Gen. Cox had placed his infantry In
line-of-battle. Our good work had
greatly assisted in saving the army from
disaster and defeat at Columbia. With
a good deal of fervor he added:
Major, every man in your command
that morning was hero"
A merited tribute from great soldier.
Gen. Schofeld, growing old gracefully,
full of honors, surrounded by troops of
friends, as everybody knows, has just
been retired.

LAST MAN IN.
How the SOuihsandcrS Won, and
Their Captain Lost His Soul.

John Wardle was angry-he was often
angry, being young and impetuous, but this
time his wrath was justified. He was cap
tain of the Southsapds eleven, and he had set
his heart on beating the Greenvale Club, and
now, Just as the second days play was begin
ming, he was told that Charlie Kennedy, the
pride and hope of the Southsanders, had
fallen from his bicycle and sprained his wrist.
Clumsy idiot !" grumbled Wardle.
Why couldn't he wait a day? He might
have smashed himself up as much as he liked
tomorrow"
% It's a beastly nuisance for you," said
Harding, the GIeenvale captain, with elabo-
rate sympathy. Cant you get some chap
in his placc?''
What chap? There's not one here worth
half Kennedy" Wardle said GROSSLY.
"Of, well they're not all such buffers as
that, and Kennedy wasn't very brilliant
yesterday; i don't suppose he would have
made much difference TO you." He spoke
with kind contempt, and Warile wanted
to be ungentlemanly and abuse him.
1t was the more trying, as the Greenvale
men had lately won a good many matches,
and were giving themselves airs which were
in young club; and, worst of
ALL the week before they had beaten the
until then the crack club of the
The Southsanders knew that if they were
to hold their own against this vain rival they
must win this, the return match, or admit
the superiority OF the Greenvale Club. Each
Southsands man was bent on winning, but
their captain felt the necessity of victory
hundred times more than they could. 1t was
not the honor of the club alone, but more
personal reason.
Miss Dolly Panton had smiled with equal
favor on him and Dick Harding. She was
one Of the Summer visitors that eniyened
Southsands for three months Of the year and
left it a dreary blank for the other nine. Her
father had taken, for the last two years,
pretty little house overlooking the cricket
