miners decided yesterday to remain out

AN INTERESTING CASE.
The DisPensary Law Causes CompII-
Gated Trouble for Sheppard.

Columbia. s C., Aug. IA case Of some
interest was decided to-day by Chief JUS
tiee McIver OF the supreme court Of south
Carolina. The dispensary law of this state
provides that upon certain proofs. the state
officials may enjoin party from selling
intoxicants. Proceeding under those pro-
visions. Circuit Judge Benet, sitting in
this city some time last October, enioined
one William Sheppard from selling or
otherWise disposing of spirituous LIQUORS
Al the recent term Of the court in this
city, Sheppard was brought before Judge
Townsend, another circuit judge on the
charge OF contempt OF court, in selling IL
quors contrary TO the order of Judge Ben
ct. Judge Townsend held Sheppard guilty
of contempt of Judge Benets order ana
sentenced him to a fine of 500 and TO i'm
prisonment in the penitentiary for eight
months Sheppard was committed accord
ingly, had his head shaved, put in stripes
and set to work.
Last week his lawyers. John McMaster
ana b. L. Abney, moved Chief Justice Me
liver for the discharge of Sheppard on
several grounds, chief among them being
that the provision of the dispensary law,
providing for the contempt PROCEEDINGS
are in violation of the state and federal
constitutions
This evening the decision of the chief
Justice was received. He orders Sheppards
discharge, but without considering the
constitutional questions presented. He
simply holds that Judge Benet was with
out Jurisdiction to pass the injunction or
der which Sheppard was charged with
violating. Benet is the Judge of the First
circuit, and held court in this, the Fifth
circuit under a statute providing an in
terchange of circuits by the different
judges. The constitutional question Is
not considered. The order of discharge
has not yet been served upon the super
intendent of the penitentiary.

Good Horse Sense In Burros.

the surface of the ground. We had

Of water to make coffee when we OBJ
served three burros searching for water.
They passed several damp places, exam
ing the ground closely, when the leader
halted near as and commenced to paw a
hole in the dry, hot sand with his right
forefoot. After awhile he used his left
forefoot. Having dug a hole something
over a foot in depth, he backed out and
watched it intently. To our surprise, it
soon commenced to fill with water. Then
he advanced and took a drink and step
ped aside, inviting, l think, the others
to take a drink. At all events they
promptly did SO and then went away,
when we got down and took a drink

by CIR united efforts force the stick past

But il is very simply explained.
The whole secret consists n insisting
upon tie ne.. holding the stick in a
vertical position. When the girls open

portion CT the stick, she moves it two
CT three times UP ard down, pulling
gradually moro and more against it. AS
this tends to pull the stick away from

They do SO and imagine that they are
exertins a tremendous vertical thrust,
whereas their vertical effort is actually
very slight-insuficient ever to over
come the friction Of the stick against
her moist band. The men are really ex-
erting a tremendous effort, but are de-
ceived as to its direction. With their
hands tightly graspins the upper end of
the stick they are really trying to force
the other end of the stick against the
palm OF her hand.-N. w. Perry in
