The News of Pisgah.

Pisgab, July 14-Corn has come
out some. If rain comes now, fairly
good crop will be made. Cotton is

scarcely will be made.
Mr.. John K. Mcleod lost his baby
girl last week. It had been sick for
some time. This is the second time he
has had to bear this trouble and the
friends of himself and wife, are truly
sorry at the loss of their little one.
Mrs. Hutchison who has been very
i'll is slowly recovering. MRS. John
McCaa is quite sick. Dr.. Britton has
charge of the case.
\ party was convicted here in Mag
istrate Mupnerlerlyn's IS court last week.
of carrying weapons contrary to law,
and fine Of IS dollars imposed. The
jury recommended him to the mercy
of the court. The court, jury and CON
stable charged nothing for their SER
vices. MIR. D. j. Hatfield appeared
for the prosecution and in his speech,
said that the carrying OF deadly wea-
pons was the cause of SO many deaths
in our land. 1t is hoped that the
habit will cease, for no man with the
proper manhood about him will have
pistol swung around him. 1t
should be relic of other days when
Chritian civilization did not dominate
the country. I hope this conviction
will ever be timely warning to law
breakers that lawlessness will not be
tolerated.
The season is near at band when pro-
tracted meetings will commence, and

best of preachers are wanted. A min

SETTLING With Lee COUNTY.
Claims of Sumter, Kershaw and
Darlington to be Adjusted.

Columbia, July 1.-THE commits
sion appointed recently to adjust the
claims of Sumter, Kershaw and Darl-
ington against Lee County met today
in the Secretary of States Office. The
claims made by these counties were
for expenditures made by them dur
ing the time that the Lee county case
was in the Courts. The members of
this commission are ali prominent
business men and they will doubtless
make an equitable adjustment of the
claim. Mr.. T. Hasell Gihbes, of Co.
lumbia, is chairman of the board, and
the other members present today are:
N. A. Bethune and II. G. Garrison, for
Kershaw; Robert Mcarland and G.
". Milling, for Darlington; G. f.
Parrott and T. G. Perrin: for Lee;
G. G. Rowland and Neill O'Donnell,
for Sumter.
I. G. Strauss, Of Sumter, was ap-
pointed secretary. Mr.. O'Donnell
stated to the commission that insmuch
as the largest portion Of Lee county
was gotten from Sumter, it would be
best to take up her claim and decide
upon what basis the claims should be
paid. By the agreement made at. the
preliminary meeting in Sumter it was
decided that the dates of the claims
should be from the passage of the bill
creating Lee county on February 25,
1902, to December Is, 1902, when the
Supreme Court finally decided in favor
of Lee county. Mr.. Strauss then went
into the detailed account Of Sumter's
claim showing Lee county's proportion
of bonded Indebtedness of Sumter
county to be So, 1926 rs; of the note
and floating Indebtedness, 81, s20. "A;
of current expenses, etc., s2,5A.4 ~.
1t was moved by Mr.. MacFarland
that the settlement sheet proposed by
Sumter county be adopted by the COM
mission as settlement subject to any
errors and subject to settlement of
school funds open between the coun-
ties, Lee County to have thirty days
to report any claims as errors.
It was moved by MI. O'Donnell
that Lee county pay interest on her
proportion of bonded Indebtedness from
February 25, 1902; at per cent. in
terest on her proportion of note indebt-
edness at 6 per cent from February 25.
1902, and interest on her proportion Of
expenditures as shown on the state
ment from July Is, 1902, at 7 per cent
to date of payment.
Mr.. Garrison stated that Kershaw
county would furnish her statement OF
account to the Lee county commission
ers, and if there were no differences
between these two counties the matter
could be settled among themselves.
The commission adopted the statement
of Mr.. MacFarland as to the indebt-
edness between Lee and Darlington
counties. This statement shows the
balance due to Lee county from Darl-
ington to be 1852. %.

The association also passed resolu-
tions of appreciation of the courtesies
of the railroads, the attention of Mr..
Harris and his assistants of the White
Stone Springs Hotel and others.
I will remark right here for the in
formation of those who may purpose
visiting the White Stone Springs, that
the hotel assistants are only surpassed
in their attentions and efficiency by
their superior, Sunny Jim" Har-

Mr.. Dare Strother, Clerk; Mr..
Clarence Boyd, Clerk; Mr.. Geo. Boyd,
Clerk; Mr.. Carl Wharton, Drummer
and Assistant.
There was a pressing invitation
from the city of Greenville for the
association to go there next year, and
also an invitation to go to Cheraw,
but the members felt that Mr.. Har-
ris' invitation to come back and see
his improvement next year could not
be ignored, and the first vote was so
nearly unanimous for White Stone
that it was agreed to make it unanim-

use for over thirty years, during
which time many million bottles have
been sold and used. 1t has long been

homes, yet during all this time no case
has ever been reported to the manu-
facturers in which it failed to effect a

the child becomes hoarse or even as
soon as the croupy cough appears, it
will pr event the attack. 1t is pleasant
to take, many children like it. 1t
