OF the DispensaFy Law.

OF the Dispensary Law.
A Charleston grand jury, in a re-
cent report to the court, presented an
exposure of the workings of the
South Carolina dispensary law and
charge it as source of many vicious
and degrading corruptions. The Port
land Oregonian jnstly says of it:
The favorable report alleged to have
been sent by the Governor of South
Carolina to the Washington legislature
relative to the dispensary law, is not
borne out by the facts as they appear
to the view of the Charleston grand
jury, whose report, just filed, scored
the dispensers and the methods en-
ployed by them. The jury accuses
the dispensers of uniformly disregard
ing their rules, and asserts that sales
are made to minors, to people who
can't sign their names, and, in fact, to
all and everyone who will buy. The
jury also says that cases presented to
them were supported by most limsy
evidence, and reference is made to an
important case which was not brought
before them. They ask significantly
for the reason for this. Marshal Mar
tin and Sergeant Alexander are ac-
cused of furnishing money to con-
stables with which to make cases.
These are we'll known incidents of the
dispensary system, and Washington is
entitled to hearty congratulations for
having escaped it, despite Governor
Rogers and his ambition for a State
llOuOr machine.

VOICES MADE TO ORDER.
A Doctor in France Has a Very Novel
Scheme

DR.. Sandras who is described as a
medica! luminary OF Paris, proposes to
establish a college for vocal students.
where all those who wish to sing for
pleasure or profit can be fitted out with
voices at short order says the Boston
Transcript. Style and method will, of
course, have to be studied, but beyond
the technique and the intellectual side
of the art there will be nothing to thwart
the hopes of the most ambitious vocal
ist. The divine gift of song will-be sup
piled in the college course, and a voice of
any required caliber or register will be
presented to the student by Dr. Sandras,
The classes will, in fact, contain nothing
but embryo Melbas, De Reszkes and
PIancons
This enterprising physician claims
that in order to modify the sounds of
the human voice one has only to inhale
the vapors of certain liquids and es-
sences. Thus, inhalation of curocao, ac-
cording to DR.. Sandras, Will raise the
voice two full notes, the inspiration of
absinthe will add one high and two low
notes, and essence extracted from pines
will give two low notes. For strength
ening of the medium notes periodical
recourse to rum in which coffee beans
have been dissolved is recommended.
There are other odors that are said to
be even more efficacious. though they
have the disadvantage OF being much

Union Pacific was the feature Of the rail-

downward movement, being Influenced by
Washington dispatches forecastng and

the traders appeared to favor a reaction.

A MODERN SOLOMON.
Pathetic Incident That Acquitted a
Poor Mother

A pathetic little drama was recently
enacted in French court of Justice.
says the London Weekly Telegraph. A
poor needlewoman was charged with
stealing two gold coins from her en-
ployer. Her defense was that. while
waiting in her employers house, the
child in her arms, unknown to her. was
attracted by the sight of the glittering
gold on the mantel shelf behind her,
and, leaning forward over her shoulder.
clutched the coins in its chubby fist and
so carried them away. This she per-
sistently and solemnly stated on oath.
The court, however, was incredulous
and reproved the mother for her at
tempt to deceive him. But she asserted
her innocence with such pathetic power
that the sagacious judge determined to
test the truth of her statement. He
bade her stand by the desk, with her
child facing over her shoulder in the way
she described Then he took several gold
coins from his pocket and placed them on
the desk within reach of the child.
A breathless silence ensuedl Every
one awaited the touching sequel Then
suddenly the child's eyes caught sight
of the cleaning gold and, with an eager
smile, the tiny hand was outstretched to
the desk and the coins were clutched in
it's tenacious grasp. The mother was
promptly acquitted.

The Days Transactions on the Board Of
Trade.

CHICAGO Jan. 11.--Wheat was struck
in its most Vulnerable point at the opening
when the cables reported Liverpool from
y to I'D lower May wheat. which closed
at 211s Saturday, opened today at from
SO4s to S01a and in little more than half an
hour later it was down to S0 which was the
first rallying point for more than 1sc reac-
ton. The effect Of such unexpected weak
ness at Liverpool was all the more depress-
ing and the reason for 1t more inexplicable
because of the bullishness of everything
and lack of statistical information con-
nected with the weeks movements. The
worlds shipments last week were only q
little over 1900. or nearly 5000 900 bushels
less than the week before. The receipts at
Chicago were only twenty carloads. Min
Eeapolis and Duluth got 36l cars compared
with 309 a week ago and 924 on the similar
week of the previous year THe exports
from the Atlahtic seaboard since Satur-
days report were Only 2oO,OOO bushels in
wheat and flour together. The visible sup
ply about satisfied expectations, showing
decrease of 7.779,0o0 bushels. These IA
vorable factors led to some increase in the
buying and some revival OF confidence, but
the rally was not very important. The alb
sence Of business from outside sources was
as noticeable as for some time back. When
the price of May first touched 80 1t was
brought about. largely by the selling of
people who had puts sold and on the other
hand that caused the price to react to Scss.
was in a great measure due to buying by
those who had puts bought. There was
wheat and 1t exceeded the offerings, as may
be concluded from the spread between
January and May narrowing from three
cents to 2s4 cents, although $4,000 bushels
was about the total amount of transactions
After the first reaction from so to S0ss cents,
May tumbled again to SCMS0h 1t had an
other rally to s01a and again fresh fall to
| 80 from which last slump II only recovered
", closing at SOS, or 1ss cents below its
| resting place on Saturday. Corn was again
heavy because of the selling by Council
man & Co., Bartlett-Frazer and other re-
| ceivers, said to be due to the poor condition
| of corn in many places in the country
! Oats acted In consort with wheat, following
! that market on a downward course and
experiencing a very good business en-
route. Provisions. strong all day and this
| In spite of hog receipts being large and
weakness in wheat
