The Cos sacks will give their daredevil and thrilling exhibitions of difficult equestrianism; the south American Gauchos will be interest ing from the fact of their first appearance before the public, while their alliance to the south American Indian and Spanish South American conquerors will add to that interest, and their larat throwing, and ability to lariat untamed animals, make them the southern prototype of the North American cowboys The Arab will appear in the dashing horsemanship ascribed to him In history; song and story. and In feats of athletic skill.

ORIGINAL PACKAaE CITY TAX.
Greenviile Will Collect $500 from Payne u
Simmons and Shut Up Any Original
Package store that Refuses to Pay
the Tax.
News and Courier.

Greenville, S. G., October 8. TIE
CITY council, by its action yesterday,
seems to have tanned tho monied
original package dealers. 10 day
j. e. Payne and Marion Simmons,
the largest dealers, notified the may
or of tho city that they would CON-
ply with tho tax ordinance, and on
Monday will pay tho two hundred.
dollar license as required by tho or.
dinance. The payment will be MADE
under protest.
These dealers desire to avoid OK
pensivo litigation, having paid all
fees to date for suits, and as there
is similar ordinance at Nowberry,
which is contested, they will take
their chances on tho Newborry con.
,tention.
On Monday council will proceed
against all original package houses
failing to comply with tho ordinance,
and close ihom up. This will give
Payne and Simmons a monopoly of
tho original package busin ess, and
they oen woll afford to pay tho tax.
In this connection it is interesting
to compare tho Groenvillo disponsary
business for September, 1896, and
September, 1897. An examination
of the disrensary books made today
shows the following figures: In
September, 1896, when there were
no original package stores, thon
the profits OF tho East End dispen.
sary amounted to S442 SO, tho 70.
port for September, 1907, since tho
original package stores have beon in
operation, shows dend loss Of 81 n.
That is, tho diponsary did not sell
enough liquor to pay expenses and
lost 81 rs.
And this is tho bost managed dis.
penary in tho State.

Columbia, October 1.-The only
hope OF getting an early decision on
the light Of the State board't grant
beer privileges was in the Lamotte-
Smith case, The Supreme Court
has decided that case, but has not
determined tho right Of tho State
board to allow these privileges, but
let the case 60 off upon question
Of Jurisdiction. Tho lssue WAS wheth-
or Judge Gary could compel Magis.
trate Smith to issue the warrant
againbt the beer privilege agencies
upon the affidavit OF Mr.. Lamotte
In delivering the opinion Of the
Court Justice Jones holds, in the
main, that these were applications
for writs Of mandamus to compel j.
M. Smith, es @ magistrate for tho
city II Columbia. to issue arrest war
rants Of seizure under Section 20 of
the Dispensary Act against John G..
Seegers In ono case and Charles Ma
rey IN the othor, charged with tho
violation of tho said Act. The two
eases for convenience were hoard to-
gether. They wore heard by Judge
Gary, Judge Of the 9th judicial cir
Quit, at Chambers, in Newborry, whilo
holding tho October torn of Court
for Newberry, in the 7th circuit.
This is an appeal from his orders is-
suing che writs commanding James
Nj. Saith, as ma ,ietrate, TO take the
affidavit Of the relator and issue the
warrant as prayed for in the pcti-
ton. The first question presented
ID whether Judge Gary had jurisdic-
ton TO hear and determine suoh ap-
| plicarion for mandamus at Chambers
in. the 7th circuit. These causes
arose in the county of Richland, in
the 9Th circuit, of which Judge Gary
was Judge, and when tho writs were
issued Judge Buchanan was holding
Court in the 9th circuit. Judge Ga
ry, sitting es Court il the 7th cir
Quit, would have no jurisdiction to
hear and determine an application
for mandamus arising and triable
in the county Of Richlaud, in the 9Th
circuit; therefore, according to the
cnses quoted in tho opinion, he would
have no jurisdiction to hear and do
termine such application at Cham
bers In tho 7th circuit. The fact
that he was Judge Of tho 5th circuit,
wherein the cause arose and was tri-
able, cannot alter the question, since
he did not exercise tho Chambers
jurisdiction Of the Judge of the 5th
circuit within the 9Th circuit. HAY
ing come to the conclusion that Judge
Cay was without jurisdiction in the
premises tho other questions pro-
sented arc not considered, as they do
not properly arise. The orders ap.
pealed from are reversed and the
proceedings dismissed.

Circuit Court, Fourth Circuit-In
Equity.
j. Logan Gibson vs. T.. j. Harmon,
ct al.
The complainants, non resident of
South Carolina, opened an original
package store in the town Of Wood
ruff, conducted by their agent duly
authorized thereto. They exposed
for sale therein Intoxicating liquor
in original packages. The respond
ents, some Of them State constables,
and others acting under the munici
pal authorities of said town, seized
the liquors, closed the store and
prosecuted the agent Of the COM
plainant.
A rule was issued against respond,
ents to show cause why they be not
enjoined from proceeding farther
therein.
They have filed returns and for
cause among other things show
that it is not lawful for any one to
soil Intoxicating liquors in the town
OF Woodruff.
Woodruff is flourishing town on
the Charleston and Western Carolina
Railroad, having ohurohcs. one Of
which is known as Bethel Academy
within its. territory.
The town was Incorporated first in
1874 (l0 statutes at large, 1874.) In
1875 (l0 statutes at large, 1917 the
Legislature Of South Carolina passed
an act to prohibit the sale Of
ardent spirits within three miles
OF the Bethel Baptist Church
and Bethel academy. This act has
10 period fixed for its duration.
In 1887 Woodruff was again moor.
porated Go statutes at large, 112D
with a new and full charter. No
power whatever is given to the town
council to authorize the sale of spir.
ituous liquors. This is studiously
omitted.
The act Of 1876 is one Of the very
many acts of similar character, pro.
tecting church and the congregations
worshipping therein from tho danger,
annoyance and insult resulting from
tho proximity Of saloons and the
sales Of intoxicating liquor, in their
immediate neighborhood. The in
tention of the Legislature to repeal
them must be declared in language
plain, direct and not to be doubted.
The eomplainants contend that the
dispensary acts effect this result.
And that the act of 1876, above
quoted, is no longer of force.
For the reasons given in the
opinion in the BaileyLiquor company
vs.. w. G. Austin ct al, just filed,
this position is untenable.
This ect of 1897 is without doubt
lawful exercise Of the police power
for the sale of Intoxicating liquors
within three miles of the Bethel Bap.
tist church and the Bethel academy,
covers all the town Of Woodruff. It
is made effective under the Wilson
act against all persons whomno-
ever.
The rule against the respondents
is discharged and the bill is dis.
missed with costs.
