a Long Felt Want Supplied.

For sometime past it has been ap-
parent that either the enlargement
st. Stephen Cemetery or the purchase
OF new burial ground would have to
be made. This necessityvas occasion
ed not so by an increased mortuary
asby the large increase..in the popula-
tion during the past few years, the
squares in the cemetery having been
taken by the older inhabitants. To
meet this requirement the church
authorities, acting jointly with the
town council, decided to purchase an
eligible site specially adapted to this
purpose. Such a place has been
found in the eastern suburbs COM
prising about four acres belonging to
Sam D. cher. Negotiations were at
once entered into and the purchase
of the property soon followed. Thus
another silent city of the dead has
been founded.
The trustees are: Messrs. ". P.
Roof, J. A. Muller, James P. Meetze.

Must Stick to Orders.
So Governor Evans Informs County
Dispensers.

Columbia Register.
A great many complaints have been
made all over the State recently to
the effect that some of the county
dispensers were violating their oaths
in selling liquor indiscriminately.
These reports have reached the ears
of Governor Evans and he at once
took steps to have the evil remedied.
Each dispenser has written instruc-
tions as to the manner of conduct
ing sales, and put themselves in
fair way of removal when going con-
trary to orders.
Yesterday Governor Evans, as
chairman of the State Board of Con-
troll, sent the following letter to each
of the county dispence-s:
You are hereby notified that you
are required to comply strictly with
the provisions of the Dispensary
law relating to your duties, &c. Your
oath forbids you to sell, give or furn-
ish to any person any intoxicating
liquors otherwise than is provided
by law.
I'd. To sell or furnish to any minor,
intoxicated person Or persons in the
habit of becoming intoxicated.
Sd. To sell liquors only betwee1ti e
hours fixed by the State Board OF
Control.
4th. You are forbidden to allow
liquors to be opened or drank in the
Di pensary.
5th. You shall require all persons
purchasing liquors to sign a request
f,r the same as required by law, ex-
c ,pt in cases where liquors are or
dered from counties in which there is
no Dispensary: and in such cases the
liquor may be shipped under proper
labels or certificates, if the dispenser
is satisfied they are not ordered by
minors or persons who are in the
habit of becoming intoxicated. II
uuors must not be sold on written
orders from persons residing in
counties where Dispensary is 10
Gated, unless the handwriting is
known to the dispenser and is at
tested by him, or the person present
ing the order will subscribe the name
of the party taking the order to the
request as agent.
All other provisions Of the law
must also be complied with. Any
failure to observe your oath or the
provisions of the Dispensary law vii!
" ork the forfeiture Of your permit.
