UNLICENSED DRUGGISTS.
State Consables May be Required TO Enforce
Other Laws.

Columbia, July ia meeting of the
State Board of Pharmaceutical Examiners
will be held here after the adjournment
of the meeting in Greenville, where an
examination is being held for applicants
for license to practice pharmacy. 1t is
proposed at this meeting to take steps
towards strioter enforcement of the
laws governing pharmacy and to prose
cute offenders. One of the proposed
plans IS TO have the State constables take
charge of this work in connection with
their work of looking after violation of
the dispensary law. 1t is argued that
the dispensary constables are not too
hard worked as it is, and that the med
ical laws are of as much Importance as
the dispensary law and entitled to as
much consideration from the State
authorities. This will have the effect
of stirring up the unlicensed druggists
all over the State and forcing them all
before the examining board. The mod
ical association is bot after the unlicensed
practitioners also and will make it warm
for them this fall

oRR's RIFLES.
Something Abott the Approaching Reunion al
Due West.

To the Survivors of orrs Rifles: Com
rades--The committee of arrangements,
at the urgent request of Companies b
and G of our old command, and upon
the cordial invitation from the town and
community of Due West, decided some
time ago to hold our annual reunion at
that place. The survivors of these two
companies and the people of the town
have sono 70 work in earnest to give us
hearty welcome. One Of the commit
tee writes that they are going to make
this reunion one of the best that we have
ever held. The committee urges every
survivor to meet with us on the 18th and
18th of August and not disappoint these
good people by not going.
Due West is four miles from Donalds
depot, on the Greenville and Columbia
Railroad. The survivors will be met
there with convsyances. All surviving
comrades are cordially invited to meet
with us on this occasion. The program
will be furnished later. Respectfully,
w. T. McGill, for Committee.

Two Unknown Negroes Lynched.

Philippi, w. Va, July 24.-Two
negroes, whose names were unknown,
were lynched at Womelsdorf near
here last night by an angry mob
numbering several hundred. The
first black man was shot and killed
in the station house; the second was
taken to the park, where he was
hanged, then riddled with bullets
and cut to pieces. Both whites and
negroes are enraged and in arms.
More trouble is hourly expected.
The trouble grows out of the murder
of Chief Bud Wilmoth on July %.
Several other arrests had been made
and lynching seemed imminent on
every side. The dead negroes were
caught near Bellington and were
locked up, the officers fearing
lynching if they we taken to Elkins.
When arrested neither of the men
gave their names. Negroes are
leaving one very train. The lynched
men were horribly mutilated and
their bodies left on the commons.

each township: That will not only
give us a stronger Board of County
Commissioners and thus give the
people better service at very little
more expense than they are now
paying, but will give each and every
section a man to look after the roads,
bridges, etc., but now, as it is, with
only three men to look after the
roads, bridges and finances of the
county, and they situated or liable to
all be on one side of the county or
from remote points to each other,
hence causing delay in the build
ing of a bridge or replacing one
where (by high water) it has been
washed away, or repairing one that
needs immediate repairs; besides we
think it will create rivalry, or a
kind of competition between the
various Commissioners to give the
best roads and bridges for the least
money; hence saving money for the
people, as well as giving them value
received for their money. Besides,
"In multitude of counsel there is
wisdom"
We would be glad to hear what
others think about this plan. b.

Statistics OF Courtshjo.

To foreign statistcian the world is
indebted for some very interesting data
in regard to the most approved methods
of courtship in civilized countries.
These data were compiled from declara-
tions of love and the statistican obtained
the following figures: Eigty- one Of the 100
mon vowed that they could not live longer
without the adorod one; 72 held the
ladies' hands in tight grip; 60 kissed
them on the lips, 10 on the right hand,
Q on the tip of the nose and 1 on the
SahOulder; Is were so excite that they
Puld hardly speak; 26 lost their elo
s4uence through certain qualms of con
science; IL said in deep chest toncs
a"Thank God" and frankly. admitted
that they were inexpressibly happy"
By studying the conduct of 100 men
whose suits were rejected the statistician
obtained the following equally interest
ing figures: 40 of them rushed in q frenzy
out of the room; II said that life hence.
forth had no more value in their eyes and
that they would commit suicide; II be-
came suddenly tongue-tied and irrational {;
o calmly resigned themselves to tho inev-
table; 8 avOwed their intention of
Immediately emigrating to America; 3
tore ont some of their hair; bit their
lips till the blood came; / stuck his
hands into his trousers pockets and
whtstled q popular song, and another
say the Lords Prayer.
OF the ladies, 81 per cent knew before
hand that the proposals were about to
be made to them; 10 Of them sank, as
though embarrassed, into the arms of
the loved ones, and only fell down on a
chair or sofa; IA covered their blushing
faces with their hands; 8 threw their
armssa.rys ryssionately around the necks of
$50 mon; 2 said, "Please speak to
; tiamma." and one sneered.
Ono lady, who was 48 years old, pro.
ated vigorously against giving or re-
living a kiss; another who was about
same age, said, Yes, you may kiss
bns you must do 1t in gentlemanly

Dropped a Match In Dynamite.

Winnsboro, July 22.--There was

result a woman lies at deaths door
in a terribly mangled condition.
Mrs. Bagley Smith carelessly drop

lighted q lamp into box on the
bureau containing about hundred
dynamite caps. A terrific explosion
followed, resulting in her body being
terribly lacerated in several places
and the loss of hand. There 10 no

Slot Machines Shut Down.

Columbia, July 19.-As result of the
anti-gambling movement started in
Columbia some time ago the police yes
terday notified the owners of slot ma
chimes that they must suspend operation.
In the future those only that give value
received in some commodity will be
allowed to remain in use. Of late the
slot machine craze has been on in full
force and many of the cigar stores have
regular sales. 1t is estimated that there
ia more than hundred machines in this
city. Most of them will probably be
sold and shipped away, if it appears the
police are earnest in the matter of en-
forcing the law against them.
