Dispensary Shortage Grows.

Columbia, S. c.. July O.
Shortages amounting to s15, 900
of the moneys due by county dis
pensers to the State were brought
to light by the Dispensary Board
Of Control yesterday. The books
are in such state that no report
can be made of all the shortages,
but it is probable that the total
sum will be much larger.
For the period between March
%, 1895, and November 80, 1896,
the shortage is SO, 7o2. 80. Ex-
animation reveals the fact that the
bonds given by the dispensers who
have fallen behind in their ac-
counts are in each case worthless
and that no steps have ever been
taken to punish any of the Of
tenders. The showing has Gre
ated sensation.

PAIGES PLAYERS

Daily Argus last Saturday.
The second engagement of
Paige's Players in our city was
opened last night in the Messen-
ger Opera House to an audience
that from the opening to the
close went wild in their enjoy-
ment and lavished their applause.
This fine company established
their reputation with our people
on their former trip and conse-
|quently their audience last night
was drawn from the best circles,
and the company excelled thems
selves in the delightful play pres
sented-"The Life of an Ac.
tress."
Tosnight they will present
my Mother-in>Law.
OF these two plays we cannot
DO better than copy and COM
mend the following from this
weeks issue of the Louisburg
Times:
"The above troupe appeared
at the Opera House in Louisburg
on Wednesday and Thursday
nights. Seldom indeed is Louiss
burg visited by troupe of such
trained and talented actors and
addresses, and those who attend
ed were highly entertained and
felt richly repaid for their at >
tendance.
"On Wednesday night The
Life of an Actress a rolicking
comedy drama in three acts was
presented. The play was exceed
lingly interesting and amusing
| which combined with the clever
work of the entire caste gave the
audience the keenest delight.
| The refined dancing and singing
lof the charming little Commedi-
tenne, Miss Emma Myrkle, was
lone OF the best features Of the
levening.
Con Thursday night MY
/ Mother in Law was played ano
), lproved, as advertised, to be the
funniest comedy ever written.
The same high order Of talen'
was displayed in this play also
and Miss Myrkle was as charm
ing as on the night before. A
the close of this performance Mr.
Justin Paige, the clever Man
: ager, annocnced that the com
81 pany would return in about fou
weeks and again present some o
Il the best and newest plays of tn
. lseason.
The ARGUS hopes the com
pany will have to night til
largest possible audience, whicl
9 they richly deserve.

The Rev. s. B Halliday Stricken

Orange, N. J., July 9-The
Rev. S. B. Halliday, pastor of the
Beecher Memorial Chnrch in
Rockaway avenue, Brooklyn is
dangerously i'll in this city, and
his death is expected at any time.
Mr.. Halliday came to Orange just
a week ago to-day to spend the
summer at the reside@s of Phineas
P. Staunton, 25 SuAmer street.
On Monday morning, soon after
breakfast, he was stricken with
spoplexy. He became uncon-
scious at once, and has not re-
gained consciousness since.
Mr.. Halliday was born in
Morristown, n. j. in 1912, and
