Frenchman, would have had to not only
indemnify the plaintiff but pay a similar
sum to the state, plus as much more for
speaking contemporary of the police.
Less than a month ago a Mecca trader
here was fined $40 for much less. Some
priests called at his shop TO sample his
olive oil. They smelt it, creased their
hair and boards literally, and then declar-
ed It was too dear. AS they refused to
pay for what they had appropriated he told
them to quit-"Harri,' in Arabic. Hairs"
in Amharic, means a donkey. They sum-
moned him, and despite his explanations
the fine was extorted
Should l wish to arrest a man in the
street-for theft, or assault, or insuit-to
obtain help l must bawl "Ba Makonnen"
(by the head of Makonnen). The bystand-
ers who refuse to aid in the pursuit or
arrest, after the third invocation, are liza
bic to a fine of Sl20 if three witnesses ap-
pear against them. Their offense does
not lie in the omission to ASSIST but in
wishing ill to Makonnen when his name
was pronounced. Last week an Armenian
intimate with the Ras, caused half a doz-
en- butchers to be so mulcted, because
some one insulted him in the street, and
they did not help him to catch the offender
Last night-the beginning of the Mussul-
man festival of Bairam-a young Harrari
killed another. His body hangs on a tree
400 yards from here. Truly the Abyssin-
ian law Is as strange as 1t is severe.

daughter of Peter c. Sudduth, one of the
most prominent men of that sectional
child under II years Of age. At the last
term of court Henry Sudduth, an uncle
of the girl, Messie Sudduth was tried for
assauting his sister-in-law, Jane Center.
He was convicted and sentenced TO a life
term in the penitentiary. but his lawyers
took an appeal and he is still in jail.
The incarceration in the penitentiary
Saturday night of Ed D. Green of Spar
tanburg is the closing chapter, so far as
the public is concerned, of one of the most
cold-blooded murders ever committed in
South Caroiina-the Carson murder. Yet
probably because one jury did not wish TO
hang a woman and that another jury
thought 1t unjust to hang a man when a
woman equally guilty, was spared, the
three participants in the crime. with not
the shadow of a doubt as to their guilt
are all alive and in the penitentiary.
There is lively demand for spot cotton
for home consumption in South Carolina
towns. orders have been placed at all the
centers in the state and it has been hard
to fiu them. 1t appears that the mills
were in doubt as to whether they would
remain open all through the summer and
for this reason they did not take on their
usual stock. The demand for cotton goods
has kept up, however, and the mills have
a sufficient number of orders to keep
them going for some time. They now
have to replenish their stock and find
trouble in so doing.
To save time and expense to those deslr-
ing to enter the South Carolina College
and the states woman's college at Park
Hill, entrance examinations have been ar
ranged for at every county seat in the
state on Aug. 10. In the case of the South
Carolina College. examination papers will
be returned to The applicants. If they fail
to pass, their weak points Will be indi
Gated, and at the fall examinations an
other trial will be given. Last session 800
young women applied for entrance into
Milthrop College, when there were but
accommodations for 400. This year
there is more room. This year the courses
will be extended by the additions of horu-
culture and dairying

Hands Across the Sea" which will
be the next attraction at the Opera
House, is strong and dramat-
ic. and is embellished with all
its wealth of scenery and cal
cium light effects used in it's origin
nj production. 1t is by far the strong
est play this city has seen this season.
Its situations are admirably taken, ana
there is q dash and life-like interpreta-
ton given the characters. such as has
rarely been witnessed here before. II
is q play which works upon the feel
ings of the audience to an unusual eX-
tent. The company is msGe&Hp of ar
fists of ability. The Scenery is as real
istic as it is possible to make it, and
this alone has proved it a great factor
in making Hands Across the Sea so
popular that crowded houses are assur-
ed wherever the play is presented.
Commencing Monday. February 1st,
The Heart Of Chicago a stirring
melodrama Of the ultra sensational
school. will be the bill at the Grand

necs. The Heart of Chicago is said
to contain a good story and to possess
2 deal of merit. It's scenic and mech
anicaI features are well calculated 10
please the lovers of sensational effects.
The TWO principal features of the play
are a realistic reproduction of the
scenes during the great Chicago fire
and an absolutely new railroad effect,
which is said to be wonderfully COM
Dlete. Other scenes in the play rep
resent the Masonic Temple Roof Gard
