His many friends in this city, while sorry that he has been called away from Christ church, are glad Of the opportunity offered him whereby ne can take full charge of parish. It is Rev. MT. Gammack's intention 10 leave no stone unturned in bringing the congregation of his new church into more harmonious relations, thing which in the past has been somewhat lacking.
 It is understood that several improve ments will be made on the building De- fore long, which is, at the present time too small.

DIspENsARY FIGHT is WARM.
south Carolina House AboIishes the
Bonrd of Control,

Columbia, s. c., Jan. 9O.-The liquor fight
is on and the general assembly is en-
gagged in trying to eradicate evils in the
dispensary system.
The scandals occasioned by the conduct
of dispensary officials a few weeks ago
induced the Legislature to attempt changes
in the method of management After
several caucuses and after three nights Of
warm debate the Senate tonight decided
to abolish the present state board of con-
troll and to elect three directors, one being
chosen by the Senate and two by the
lower house. In joint assembly a COM
missioner is to be elected for term of
two years. The dispensary has assumed
mammoth proportions and nearly all
other legislation is at a standstill on ac-
count of this institution.
The Senate's solution will probably be
accepted by the House, but a hot fight ia
expected. The Prohibltionists and local
option advocates are stronger in that
body. The latter contend that the dis.
pensary was forced from the people, and
they want each county to vote on the
adoption Of the system and each county
to control its own liquor traffic
