South Carolina Journalists. Other
Matters of Local
Interest.

Mr.. }. NJ. Barton. of Newport News.
yesterday made application to the
judge of the county court Of this coun-
ty for license to conduct an ordinary
at Il point on Chesapeake Bay called
Sand Hill. Mr.. Barton undoubtedly an
ticipated opposition to his request. for
he took the precaution to employ
Messrs. Causey and Schlater. OF this
city, and MIR. a. e. Ashby, of Newport
News. to represent his interests and set
forth his merits in the particular line
which he desires to enter
The theatrical managers apprehen-
SionS as to opposition We're we'll found
ed. as events Of swiftly subsequent oc-
currence abunuantly demonstrated. 1t
appears that his plans had leaked out.
and that Mr.. J. S. Darling, MIR. W. Il.
Lawson. Mr. Fl. S. Herbert ana others.
who are not inclined to regard an or
binary as essential to the wel-being of
the Euckroe Beach neighborhood. had
heard of them. At any rate, they de-
cided that Mr. Barton's ordinary
scheme was one of extraordinary in
terest not only to themselves. but to
the hundreds of self-respecting an1law-
abiding people who patronize Mr.. Oar
ling's popular resort, and accordingly
they employed Colonel Thomas Tabb
and MIR. Arthur Segar TO throw legal
chunks in his Way-which they will do
When JuNiclil consideration Oh the app
plication is resumed, the case having
been postponed for a season.
Sand Hill is within plain view of the
Buckroe Beach Hotel and hardly more
than five minutes walk away from it.
Between the hills and the hotel there
is a colored resort which is thronged
on every good night fol, an outing. a
little further off, but in the direction OF
Fort Monroe, is the Pines Battery, gar
risoned at the present time by a bat
TALON Of Maryland troops. With scores
of coloreu sports on one side of his or
binary and nearly five hundred hungry
and thirsty soldiers on the other MIR.
Barton would have a monopoly which
would forthwith change the rosy feat
ures of the nickle-in- the-slot machine
people to Il dark green hue. But he
will meet with no such good fortune.
MIR. Barton's ideas concerning harm
less amusementS are not popular in
Hampton-at all events not as popular
as they are in the vicinity of his the
ntre. In addition to Colonel Tabb and
Mr.. Segar. Mr.. Collier will take hand
IN the matter.
Last year Messrs. Fuller and Davis.
of Phoebus, applied to Judge Gunter
for the priviledge of conducting an or
binary near the hotel. but their appl-
cation was promptly denied. No one
doubts the result in Mr.. Barton's case.
He will save time. money and worry
by turning his attention III some other
direction. Mr.. Barton ought to pay for
this advice. but as he is Il good fellow
and !, big man it is given gratuitously.

~ BEDEuG EPISODE.
How Bette Bright and Her HUI

How BEETLE Bright and He, Hubby
After years OF domestic felicity Ed
ward Bright and Bette Bright. his
| wife, have fallen out. Bedbugs We're
the cause of it. Like Shafter at Santi-
| ago. they took Sunday for the settle
nlent of their differences, probably act
ing upon the principle laid down by the
inventor OF the addage that the better
the day the better the deed"
BETTE swore out a warrant charging
her husband with assault. she said
that last Sunday he interfered with her
domestic duties and wound up by strik-
ing her with Il chair and subsequently,
whipping her with A switch. Bright
denies the charge, alleging. on the 9th
ef hand, that the woman hit him with
the chair and afterwards horsewhjpp,d
him. Bright is 80; his wife is 40 and
healthy.
Justice Stevenson yesterday decided
me case against the old man and fined
MN $50. Before doing so however.
he appears to have discovered that on
saturday evening Bright sent word t.
ms daughter to come to- his house and
assist IN an attack upon a well in
tienched force of bedbugs. Bette it is
SAID. regarded the request as Il, reflac-
ton upon both her Willingness and
ability to cope with the enemy single
handed, and so it happened on the fol-
lowing morning. when she put the
SPIDER on the stove to prepare. the fam
ny. bacon for breakfast. Bright put the
nre out. This was uone several times
SO many times, indeed. that t was 10
o CLOCK before the meal was ready. The
neillgerent scene which ended in the
warrant was enacted by the ,,air after

NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE.


N 1oHk. July 12.-There was !.
notable disparity again TODAY In th,.
n n,., r., OF the bond and stock
markets., the volume OF trans
actions in the bond mark,
continuing on Il very large scnIs
while the stock market was dull
throughout. The declines were most
conspicuous in the stocks. which were
advanced under manipulation There
IS an effort to explain the diversion Of
speculative activity from the stock
market into the bond market on the
ground that the new revenue law pro-
rides no tax on the sale of bonds. all
though stock sales are taxed at tho
rate of 81 per 100 shares. This almost
irfiintesimal tax does in fact loom large
in the eyes of the professional room,
traders who buy and sell stocks for a
small fraction turn on the floor of the
exchange.
y large proportion OF the dealings
today was the class bonds. variously
designated for newly issued and adjust
ment bonds. There was also an active
demand for newly issued bonds OF re-
coEnized companies. which are still held
in large amounts by underwriting syn
dicates and still unabsorbed by small
| investors There was some profit talk
ing in these speculative issues involv-
ing slight recessinns from top prices
but net gains of from to over { points
