In the house Of representatives,

members four wears were coutinu.
ed until next session on motion O
the authors.
Mr.. Dendy's bill in reference
to the sstxhlishmoHt Of Jiau.n-
sari" in Ocones county came up
for Il third reading, and although
it finally passed it had thornv
path to tread before it got there.
Members did not seem to- un.
dsrrtand the bill and motions were
made TO strike out the snacting
words, to indefinitely postpone
and 80 forth.
Mr. Dendy explained that the
bill hsd no effect upon the dis
ponsary law, but that it simply
put Oconee on an suuaIity with
other prohibition counties.
Mr. Montgomery had Marion
included and in reply to question
he said that the dispensary now
established could not bs abolished
in the county unless the people so
voted, and that was in accordance
with the dispen.ary law now, SO
far as prohibition counties are
concerned.
Mr. Wharton introduced 4 bill
which provided that whoever vi0-
lates any OF tho provisions Of the
dlspensary law, or anv laws
amendstory thereof, shall upon
convlc ti"n be deemed guilty of
misdsmeanOr aud shall he sen-
fenced to hard labor on ths chain
gang for not less than three
months or moro than twelve.
As will be seen, this imposes
no fine and those who argued IN
favor of the bill were that blind
tigers easily paid the fine when
imposed and went on selling lust
the same.
Mr. Asuldin introduced an
amendment which would include
hose who were convicted OF vio~
Iatlng the concealed weapon act.
On the vote being taken the
clerk . court carried tho Wharton
bill by 50 TO 46. But some
members who kept count declared
that the LaIIsv Was wrong, and
poll Of thu house was taksn.
This showed that the clerk had
failed to hear the vsrs of Ger
tain members which, being count
sd, made the vote stand 80 to 80.
In case of tie the measure Is
lost
On Mr. Mauldin's amendment
the vote stood 81 against A. for,
80 1t, too, was lost.
Mr. Sanders then caIlsd up the
amendment to the diSpensary law
prohibiting the granting of hotel
privileges and beer licenses .ad
proceeded to speak in defense of
it.
Mr. BIsase defended the grant
ing OF beer privileges, but he adj
mittsd that hotel privileges had
been abused.
All beer privilege men were
dispensers, aad there was littie or
no difference between them and
other dispensers. So far as hotel
privileges are concerned, they

Mechanism Required to Operate a
Bell Weighing Fifteen Tons.

The striking mechanism of Big
Ben ia a Brobdignagian affair in
every way. 1t is some 30 to 40 feet
above the clock, which occupies a
room in the centre of the tower.
The striking machinery is driven
by weights of about ton and a
half, hanging in a sort of chimney
shaft LA feet deep, and to wind
them up from the bottom to the
top-though, of course, they are
never allowed to run quite down
is fair days work. When + lily
wound up, Big Ben's tormentor-
the massive iron hammer head
will go pounding away for four
days without further attention. 1t
needs pretty ponderous hammer
to fetch the full tone out Of the
bell weighing fifteen or sixteen
tons, and the marvellous thing is
that this massive mechanism
keeps such beautiful time as it
does. The clock, with which it is
connected by iron rods, gives it its
cue with such astonishing preci-
sion that the chimes get through
their preliminary performance
and the great hammer falls on the
mighty Ben within one second of
Greenwich time-at least, that is
what it is supposed to do, and the
astronomer royal, who keeps a vi
gilant eye upon the great public
timepiece, says that it does not
vary second all the year around.
The only unsatisfactory thing
about the whole performance is
the horribly bad sc" that Ben
sends forth. The wonder is, not
that a sick person finds it torture
to him to have it booming out all
night long, but that people who
are doomed to be continually hear
ing it are not made i'll by it.-Lon-

A shaughaied shanghaier.

Paddy Lynch, the notorious

been shanghaied, and is now on
the ship Rufus e. Wood, serving
before the mast. Lynch has
shanghaied hundreds, and is now
enjoying the predicament in
which he has placed many. He
was short of men, and in his eff

ting them he was kept on board
and impressed as an A. b., to fill
up the crew Of that vessel. There
are hundreds of seamen on the
coast who will he glad to read
that Lynch has been hoisted on

London Times on the Dewey Parade.
LONDON, September 30,-The Times
in an editorial tracing Admiral De-
wey's career, says:
Not the least remarkable part OF
the celebration is the fact that Adj
miral Dewey has manifestlY satisfied
all shades OF opinion. There is no
record OF single jsrring note to
mar the harmony OF the occasion.
We in England can have no more
pleasant duty than to congratulate
America upon the possession OF her
gallant seaman and her exhibition
Of Legitimate pride in that possess
sion.
We feel sure nobody in America
will question the propriety Of the
considerations which deferred Ca
NADIA from allowing a detachment
Of the imperial forces to take official
part in a celebration that must
| necessarily recall painful memories
| to another nation with whom we
maintain Traditional relations OF
peace and friendship. The vast
majority OF Americans unquestion-
ably appreciated England's friendly
attitude during the war, but. we
doubt whether that could anywhere
be so cordially appreciated as among
the American sailors who had special
opportunities Of putting it to the
proof all the world over in their
daily relations with the British navy.
We do not believe that the seed Of
friendship thus sown in the two
countries are destined to remain
sterile or to y'lsd only an ephemeral
harvest OF empty professions of
will.

CANADA'S FINAL PROPOSITION
PERMANENT SETTLEMENT OF
THE ALASKAN DISPUTE.
Comedies skagway and Dyea to the
United States In Exchange For
Pyramid Harbor.

London. Oct. 24-The Associated Press
is enabled to give author.tatively Cana
das final proposition for a permanent set
Element of the Alaskan dispute. 1t is very
different from her former demands and
was delivered to United States Antbassa-
dor Choate by the Canadian minister of
marine and fisheries, Sir Louis Henry Da-
Wis. late the night before the latter sailed,
and dispatched today to Washington by
the officials of the United States embassy.
1t is as follows:
That the boundary line be arbitrated
upon terms similar to those imposed by
the United States and Great Britain over
Venezuela. particularly those provisions
making fifty years occupancy or, by eon-
elusive evidence of title. occupancy of less
than that period to be taken as equity al
lows under international law.
THAT as a condition precedent absolute
" preliminary to arbitration, SkagWay
and Dyea would be conceded to THE Unit
ed States without further claims if Can
ada received Pyramid Harbor.'
In other words, Canada gives up much
of the disputed god country in return
for seaport. but stipulates that she
must get the latter before she agrees TO
arbitrate the boundary line.
