Got $4,000 For Driving BIS Wagon.


a few years ago well to do but e2-
nayagant farmer.livins out on the Rus
sell cave pike went to Mr. Hart Bos-
well and asked him to- see his brother
Dave Of the Northern bank and tell
him that he wanted to borrow 81, 600
and that it would be all O. K, etc.
Mr.. B. told him that he would not
do it, but gave hin the following tip:
81 see yon or your wife calling negroes
out of the field two or three times a
day to hitch your rigs up to go to Lex
iagton, and see you stop hands from
their field work to drive a load OF corn
to market. You stop all this foolishness
and drive the wagon Of corn yourself.
then 90 to the bank and ask for what
you wasat. " The man went, according
to directions, and after be had so1d his
corn he went to the bank and asked for
the 5000. Mr.. r. 7. Anderson, one
Of the directors, was present and with
out asking any questions said. "Any man
whodriyes his own wagon can borrow all
the money heswants at the Northern
bank. y This little transaction changed
this mans condition in life, and he
was no longer a money bo,rower.-Lex-
ington American.

THE CONSTABULARY.
What Prominent Prohibition ist
Says

The fact that Governor Eilerte had
decided to discharge the cons,abula:y
On October 1st was the chief topic Of
conversation in certain quarters yestsr-
day Particularly did the local pro-
hibitionists discuss the situation, and
several in Columbia who have been ac-
lively engaged 10 the fight for prohibit
tor thought that with the disccntinu-
apce Of the ccnstabulary the dispeosary
lau would be SO openly violated, and
the policemen overlooking violations,
that the chances for prohibition at the
next session of tie General Assembly
. were very encouraging
Mr.. T. J. Las1ot;e who bas been
prominent among the prohibitionists of
the state, when questioned 90 the mat
ter, said: There never was sey ue-
cessi,y for the establishment Of such a
consta bulary force as has been ma,o-
taiaed since the dispepsary law went
into effect. ard those who have been
with ue have always maintained that
the executive powers under the laws Ia
this state are suf6cient to enforce the
dispensary law. In other words there
is 90 law on tue statute books which is
valid and which is sustained by the
sense, Of the people Of the country that
cannot be thoroughly and completely
enforced Though the ordinary officers
Of the Law. So the recent announce
meas Of tue chief executive should be
commended A great mistake was
madew hen the appointment CT those
extra coDs.ehles was made. 1t bad
the eGec. Of arraying "a class Of men
against the sentiment of the people.
aud those wbo constituted the coustao-
uiary have been men uufamiliar with the
enforcement of acy laws, aod even 10
cases when they we're right blunder
was com misted "
Mr.. LaMcrte said that it Is begio-
ning to look Ike extreme measures ase
dylug out, apd that the chances -icr
prohibition would continue to Increase.
He said that much is now being done
in the wa5 Of sending out cncalars to
tie people of the state. aud :bss per
scnal appeals would be mace to every
member Of the Legislature in the inter-
est of probi5itory law.
Mr.. LaMot.e says 20 decision has
been rendered in the case which be
waited to briog sane time ago. 1t
will be remembered that Mr.. LaMotte
asked Magistrate Smith for warrant
charging that the licenses Of the bee.
dispensaries in Columbia we're pot per-
mi,,ed By law. Magistrate Smith de-
clincd to issue the warrant asd Judge
Gary deciding that the warrant should
ssue, the case vas appealed TO the state
supreme court Although the matter
has been before the court for sona ae time
20 io.imatioo as to an early decision
ihas yet been made.-Colrmbia Regis.

I'M NEWGATE PRISON.
The Prison was Noisome Place In Queen
Elizabeth's Day.

The Prison Was Noisome Place In Queen
Elizabeth's Day.
Ia ST Nicholas there is an interest
ing story, Master Skylark, nara
tive of Shakespeare's time, written by
John Bennett. One of the leading char
acters, Castor Carew, rufding player,
has been put in Newgate for killing
companion at cards The hero, Nick
Atwood. the Skylark, visits him there.
It was foul, dark place and full OF
@eyil smells. Drops OF water stood on
the cold stone walls, and green mold
crept along the floor. The air was
heavy and dank, and it began to be
hard for Nick tosbreathe.
Sup With thee, . said the turnkey
grufly, unlocking the. door to the stairs.
The common room above was packed
with miserable wretches The strongest
kept the window ledges near light and
air By sheer main force and were dicing
] on the dirty sill. The turnkey pushed
and banged his way through them,
Nick clinging desperately to his jerki1,.
In the cell at the end Of the corridor
there was Spanish renegade who rail-
ed as tie light when the door was open
ed and rallied at the darkness when it
closed. .sCesare Ell Moro, Cesare el Mo-
10, . he was saying over and over again
10 himself, ais if he feared he might for
get his own name.
e Carew was in the middle cell, ironed
hand and foot. He had torn his sleeves
and tucked the lace under the rough
edges Of the metal to keep them from
chadng thes skin. He sat on pile OF
dirty straw, with his face in his folded
arms upon his knees By his side were
broken biscuit and an empty stcEe jug.
He had his fingers in his ears to shut
out the tolIiDS Of the kneH for the men
who had gone to be hanged:
Tho turnkey shook the bars. Here.
wake apr' he said.
I Cuew locked up. His eyes were
swollen, and his face was covered with
two days beard He had slept IN his
clothes, and they we're full of broken
straw and creases. But his haggardface
lit up when he saw the hoy. and he
came to the grating with an eager e1-
clamation: And thou hast truly cone
to the man thou dost hate so bitterly,
bnt viii not hate any more? Come.
Nick, thou Will not hate me any more.
Twill not be worth thy while, Nick.
The night is coming fast. "
Why, sir, said Nick, it is not SO
dark ontside-'tis scarcely noon, and
thon wilt soon be out .
Out? Az, on Tyburn hill, . said the
master player quietly. GIVE spent my
whole life for a bit of hempen cord.
I've taken my last cue. Last night. at
70 o'clock. heard the bellman Under
the prison walls call my name with
those of the already condemned. The
play is nearly out, Nick, and the people
Will be going home. 1t has been q wild
play, Nick, and Ill played. .

the best campaigners in the south. He
can hold almost any kind Of an audi
ence with his oratory, but saw him
badly stumped few years ago. Mr.
Wise had been addressing for about ten
minutes a monster crowd IN front Of
Hanover courthouse on the Issues of the
day when he noticed cranine of
necks on the part cf his rustic audience
and finally the departure of dozen or
more men in the direction Of fakir
who was making speech in front OF a
dirty looking circus tent. AS the fakir
told abcat the marvellous freaks to be
seen inside-the rubber neck man, the
bearded woman, the living skeleton,
etc.-his voice swelled and swelled un
til Mr.. Wise could hardly be heard.
Seeing that he was about to lose his
audience, Mr. Wise fairly yelled: Lock
over yonder, boys. There's a circus.
Cone with me. It's my treat He led
the way, and every one in the crowd
followed him. After the performance
Mr. Wise resumed his speech under the
tent. "-Washington Post.
