of 79 degrees, which is about l degree

were slightly lower than usual. while
the night temperatures were normal.
There was more than the usual
amount of cloudiness, and the air
was unusually humid the entire week.
The need of sunshine is indicated.
Parts of the State had almost daily
rains, with excessive amounts in pla-
ces. The drought in the north central
and south central counties was broken
on the 18th, but there are few scat
tered places In the west central cour-
ties that arc in need of rain, or more
rain. In lower Lancaster county there
was a fall of over six inches in about
three hours that severely damaged
crops and lands. The average precipi-
tation for the State was ESQ inches.

prevalent than last week, and blight IS
reported from a few counties. General
ly cotton is well fruited, and holding
it's fruit, though the plants are small,
and very late in the extreme west,
with exceptions where recently growth
has been too rapid. Sea Island cotton
continues to bloom profusely, and bolls
are forming. The first bale Of the sea-
son was ginned in Bamberg county on
the 11th. The ten year average OF first
bales is August 7th; the earliest was
on July 18th, in 1896, the latest was on
August goth, in 1895.
There is some tobacco yet to be
cured in the central and western coun-
ties, but in the principal districts the
work is finished. The weather was IA
vorable on rice, and especially SO on
June rice in the Georgetown district.
In the southern districts rice is ripen-
ing. Fall truck continues to be planted
extensively, under favorable conditions
for quick termination. Cane and sweet
potatoes are excellent; peas generally
so. Turnips are being sown. The fruit

81 rlinor Events OF the Week In a Z
Brief Form.
Get No Special Concessions.

The Secretary Of State recently gave
out an interview on the subject OF So
cial clubs recently raided by the dis
pensary constabulary and the worth Of
their charterts. Many peole have
thought that because these clubs were
chartered organizations they were thus
protected. Mr.. CAN'T, in the course Of
conversation, clearly showed that no
violator OF the law is ever protected by
charter.
'In view of misapprehension in
come quarters said Mr.. CAN'T, Il
would be glad to have the newspapers
state the fact, as from me, that q
charter gives no individual association
or company the right to violate the
law OF the State. A corporation SIM
ply creates a corporation Of two or
more individuals, and confers only the
rights enumerated in the code, TO wit:
to hold their property in common and
regulate their affairs as unit. 1t is
not the grant of a single right that
an individual does not possess, and all
corporations in the State, whether
chartered through my Office or by the
General Assembly, are amenable to
every law on the statute books.
When two or more persons file y
declaration that they desire to form a
social organization, it is not my duty
to inquire nor have / any means OF
ascertaining whether they intend to
violate the law; on the contrary 1t Is
my duty to take for granted that they
intend to obey the law"
"Mr. CAN'T, have you received, In
your official capacity any objections to
the issuance of charters to these so
called social clubs?"
mo, have not" answered the Sec
retary of State. Before any club or
association can be organized, published
notice must be given in the newspa-
pers, and there has not been fled with
the Secretary of State in several years
one word Of protest against the Or
ganization of any club or similar asso-
citation.
1T is the duty of the regular officers
of the law to see that clubs and asso-
Citations, as well as individuals, obey
the law Of the State.

THREE-F0URTRS VERDICT LAW.
Question Raised as to Whether 1t
Applies TO Probate Courts.

The question of whether the three-fourths
verdict law applies to Probate Court cases
was raised yesterday by Attorney W. L.
linealy in the case of Mrs. Dorothy Coed
ecke of No 1895 Biddle street, who was de-
clared of sound mind by eleven jurors last
Tuesday.
Attorney Kinealy claims that the law does
not apply to the Probate Court and that
the hearing should have been declared
Tnistrial. He asks that another jury be i'm
paneled and the case tried over.
The matter was taken under advisement
and will be passed upon at the September
term OF court.
