CARoLINA's LEGISLATURE.
Many Important Matters That VIII
Have to BE Attended To.

Columbia, S. c., Jan. Ton Tuesday,
Jan. IA, the legislature of South Carolina
will meet in one of the most important
sessions held since 1868. The laws of the
state will have to be made to conform to
the terms of the new constitution, the
necessary changes in some cases being
quite radical. Owing to the Importance
of the work before the legislature a spe-
cial provision was inserted in the consti-
tuition allowing this session to sit as much
longer than forty days, the constitution
al period, as the circumstances warrant,
and it is expected that the session will
last for three months.
The first, and in some respects the great
est, change to be made is the increase or
the number of justices of the supreme
court from two to three, making, with the
chief justice, four members of the cour;.
The legislature will have to elect this
extra man, and there are a large number
of lawyers in the state 'yearning and
working for the place. The gentlemen
most prominently spoken of in connection
with the place are Speaker Jones of the
House of Representatives Col. Robert Al
drich, reformers; d. S. Henderson OF
Aiken, who made a splendid record in
the convention, and who, although a con-
sentative, stands well with the refOrmers;
Senator Mower, conservative, of Newber-
ry, and Attorney General Barber. The
latter is not an avowed candidate. AS be-
tween Col. Aldrich and Speaker Jones
the chances appear to be largely in favor
of the latter. Associate Justice Pope's
term expires at this time but he will I'M
doubtedly succeed himself A bill win
likely be introduced making two addi-
tional judicial circuits, and if it passes
Solicitor Bellinger of Barnwell and J. E
Breazele of Anderson will be pushed for
these places. Both are reformers. An
other matter of great Importance will be
the enactment OF a registration and cleo
ton law to conform to the terms of the
constitution.
Another matter which will attract at
tention is the passage of law whereby
the Representatives of any party lynched
may recover damages to the amount of
81 900 against the county where the lynch
ing occurred. Everybody hopes this law
will have a deterrent effect, but they fear
it will not do so to any great extent.
Stockholders in banks are made liable
for the amount of their stock plus such
an amount as will meet the obligations
due the depositors in case the bank fails.
In addition to this a bank inspector win
have to he aDDOinted.

RAN IN A CANAL OF MUD.
The FavOrites Again BOwIed over at
New Orleans.

New Orleans.
New Orleans, Jan. 1.-THE heavy rain
this morning left the track more like
canal of mud and water than a race track.
The chief feature of the days sport was
the way in which the favorites were
bowled over.
Red John, after getting in front in the
back stretch, stopped under the weak eff
forts of Joe Hills riding and finished
way back. L. Soden was given waiting
orders on Chenoa. and he waited till the
race was over before making his effort.
Can't Kidd and Kirk were even favorites
in the third. The captain won in drive
from Chugnut, a good thing. Kirk ran
without mud plates and was beaten
David could only get third in the handi-
cap. Piccarroon went to the front and
lasted long enough to stall off Balk Lines
rush at the finish.
Tommy Rutter, a good thing, galloped
home in front of Sound More in the last.
Panout the favorite, was a poor third.
The weather was clear and the track
heavy. summary follows:
First Race-SiX furlongs, purse. Billy
Jordan, H. Tuberville, to 1, won, with
Sir John second and Mataire third. Time
Second Race-One and one-sixteenth
miles, selling. Dave Pulsifer, JOG, Hill,
10 to s. won, with Springvale second and
Little Bill third. Time 1:57%.
Third Race-Mile, handicap. Capt. Kidd,

second and Waterman third. Time 1:494
Fourth Raee-Mile and twenty yards,

Chicago, Jan. Judge Turley this
morning awarded the victory to John
Cudahy in the chancery litigation brought
by Austin Wright to prove partnership
with Mr. Cudahy in the celebrated pork
deal of September 1898. Mr.. Wright
claimed that the deals, which involved
a loss of $500. 900 and brought his failure,
were partnership transactions, and that
Mr. Cudahy was equally liable. Judge
Turley held that the evidence did not sup

where he lives and what is his name she
doesn't choose to tell.
Miss Williams was introduced to
George Morgan Of the treasury depart
ment by Thomas Eakins, the artist.
Mr.. Morgan had been assigned the task
Of designing a new silver dollar in 1876.
He had completed the reverse side of
the coin and fer months had sought the
ideal face for the Goddess of Liberty
upon which he had determined, when
he met Miss Williams and after much
persuasion induced her to pose. Her pro-
file portrait has enjoyed the largest cir
culatiOn OF any picture ever published.

"The operator used a camei's hair
brush to put the colOrs upon the note,
and these colors were initiated 10 per-
fectly that it could not be suspected that
they were not genuine. The silk threads,
which in the genuine note are worked
into the pulp Of the paper, were initiated
with the pen with red and blue ink.

the imitation of the treasury seal i'll a
more marked degree than in any other
part Of his work. The cOlOrs were car
mine, like those of a postage stamp, but
the tracings were intricate and difficult.
Yet the artist, if such he may be called,
reproduced it all with wonderful skill
and fidelity, SO that the appearance of
the seal would add very much to the
deception.
THAT is how the front of the note
was made. The work Oh the back was
less difficult, because there was not SC
much Of it, and because, too, it was
dOEe almost entirely with a brush. The
immersing Of counterfeits in a solution
of weak coffee is al old trick Of counter
feiters, but it probably will be admitted
by everybody that this is the only old
thing about the producing Of these pen,
ink and brush notes. The rest is star
tlingly new. New York Sun.
