THE JURY PAID IT.

Some time age q Honea Path lady
sold negro woman a shirt waist for
81. so. The woman paid Is cents on
the amount, leaving q debt of S5
cents. This the woman failed to
pay, after being repeatedly dunned for
it, and a few days ago the husband of
the lady swore out warrant for the
negress, charging her with larceny
after trust. The woman was brought
before the magistrate and entered a
plea of rot guilty and demanded a trial
by a jury.
A jury of six was summoned. The
jury consisted of business men of town,
whose time was valuable. They did
not relish the idea of serving on a
magistrates Jury anyhow, and after
learning the nature Of the case they
were to try they took up a collection
among themselves, raised 85 cents,
the amount of money involved. This
was rendered the prosecutor, whos:ac-
cepted it and withdrew the charge.
The magistrate dismissed the case.
The prisoner was discharged, and all
hands left the court room and yent
about other business. = Anderson

A DOMESTIC EXPERIENCE.

Dissatisfied With Her Place.

Just lost a very good cook for very
absurd reason, think. She came to
us about four months ago and was
satisfactory in every way-neat. In
dustrious, respectful and last. but
foremost. an excellent cook.
Gas she was so very quiet ! could
not tell whether or not she was as
well pleased with us as we were with
her. but about six weeks ago the trou-
BILE began. She asked me suddenly
one day why We entertained so sell
dom.
Ella said, we don't care to en-
tertain except few choice friends
now and then. 1t costs more than we
can afford. and we really don't care
for it.
Your house is Just as handsome as
anybody's.' she went on. Other peo-
pie that I've lived with entertained all
the time. and their houses weren't
near as pretty or as nice as yours.
You never have anything but club
meeting once in awhile. Why don't
you have teas and receptions. Mrs.
Blank?
Il reiterated my two ieasons-that
we couldn't spend money in that way
and that we preferred simple amuse-
ments. Ella didn't seem satisfied, but
the matter was dropped. Last Mon
day she asked to spend week at
home with her sick aunt, and, as ]
couldn't well refuse, she departed. To-
day received a postal card from her
couched in these words:
Dear Mrs Blank-My aunt is better.
but I'm not coming back I've got more

SAM JONES VS.. JAGkAss.
The Two Contended for the Mas
tery at K. Of P. Banquet.

Those who attended the meeting of
the Grand Lodge, Knights of Pythias,
at Greenwood last week are laughing
over aD incident in which the Rev.
Sam ?. Jones, the famous Georgia
evangelist, figured.
Mr.. Jones, it may be stated here,
is an active and enthusiastic member
of the order. He can make the goat
do more sudden and violent things
in the second degree than any other
man that ever tried it.
Mr.. Jones went to Greenwood to
deliver lecture last Wednesday
night, the night on which the grand
lodge banquet was given. The date
for the lecture was made months ago,
before it was known that the grand
lodge would be in session at that
time, but the two events did not in
terfere with each other. Nearly all
the Pythians attended the lecture, and
after it was over they seized upon Mr..
Jones and made him go with them to
the banquet, which was not COM
menced until later hour.
The banquet was served in large
hall over a livery stable. After the
feast had progressed for a while the
toast master called on Brother Jones''
for a speech.
It didn't take much persuasion to
get him to respond. He uncoiled him
self from the table and commenced,
Well, brethren
Just at this juncture iackass in
one Of the stalls in the stable under
meath decided that it was time for his
usual midnight anthem, and broke
loose. "Oh, Hee-haw! Hee-hawr' he
sang; Hee-haw! Hee-haw! Oufr
Sit down, Brother Jones, said the
toast master; s. another brother has
gotten the hoor.''
The banqueters had gone into parox-
ysms OF laughter and some of them
had fallen out Of their chairs and
were rolling on the floor.
Maybe it's an Elk said Mr..
Jones, as be waited for the uproar to
stop.
The jackass finally found stopping
place, and Mr.. Jones attempted to pro-
ceed, but the jackass thought of
something else ne wanted to say, and
Mr.. Jones again had to suspend.
After some considerable lapse of time
Mr.. Jones made another effort, but
he couldn't make much progress. His
hearers were convulsed by the inter
ruption and were unable to control
themselves. Whenever silence would
be restored and Mr.. Jones would
start his speech some man would
think of new phase Of the ludi-
crous incident and giggle, and then
the laugh would start afresh.
Mr.. Jones delivered his speech, af-
ter a fashion, but he had hard
time of it. Finally he got disgusted
and quit. The jackass down stairs
was not bit more discourteous than
those up stairs,D he told them as a
parting shot.
Those who were present say that the
incident was the most laughable they
ever witnessed, and that so far as is
known this is the only time Sam
Jones ever admitted himself defeated.
The iackass injected himself and his
voice into the occasion just at the op-
perfume moment to make hit.-An-
derson Mail.

PERPETUAL MOTION.
One Inventor Has Accomplished Id
by Harvesting Cyclone.

One Inventor Has Accomplished Id
by Harvesting a Cyclone.
It was during the portion Of his ca
reer when he lived in the valley Of the
south fork Of the Big Sunfower river
that Henry Plymshaw, the inventor,
made his most notable invention. This
invention had to do with cyclones.
One afternoon Inventor Plymshaw
saw a splendid specimen Of funnel
cyclone coming over the prairie, and he
called to me and said he would go out
and study it, since it was evident that
it was going to one Size. The instant
the cyclone sighted US it came straight
in our direction. We weren't prepared
for this exactly, SO all we could do was
to run. We were just on the point of
giving up when q most extraordinary
thing happened. Curious thing. Sort OF
natural too. And there it was. Only
one leg, and that down a fifty foot well
in the middle of a sheep pasture. If it
had had two legs, no doubt it could
have scrambled out, but it couldn't
make it with one. Couldn't do any
thing except revolve. And it did do
that. I never saw cyclone revolve like
that one. Mad apparently because it
had missed Plymshaw and me and got
caught. So it just buzzed around like
top. Nothing in the world to stop it.
Most men-mere men of action
would have been satisfied at getting
away and not having to reTolve with
the houses and lots. but not Plymsnaw.
No. He got to thinking, and what was
the result? Put belt around the stem
Of that cyclone just at the top of the
well, set up a dynamo, strung wire and
ran all the machinery and electric
lights in that part Of the country. Reg
ular Niagara for power. Going yet.
Nothing to stop it, you see. Wonderful
