Drug s(o,e Case. oism,s..d.

Judge Wallis delivered his de-
clsion in the drug store cases last
Wednesday. The arguments were
made last Saturday, Major Dsmer-
on appeared for the defense, and
City Attorney McDsniels for the
prosecution. The case was sub
mitted upon an agaeed statement
of facts, and the only question in
volved was the validity of the or
dinance closing all places OF busi-
ness on Sunday. Judge Wallis
opinion was to the effect that a
drug Store was public necessit,
aud therefore not liable under the
ordinance. City Attorney Nc
Daniels gave notice of appeal to
the court of appeals.

HOW FIRES MAY START.
Several Things That Will Cause spon-
taneous Combustion.


Damp lampblack will ignite from the
suns rays. The same can be SAID OF
cotton waste moist with lard or other
animal oil. Lampblack and little oil
or water will under certain conditions
ignite spontaneously. Nitric acid and
charcoal create spontaneous combus-
ton. New printers ink on paper when
in contact with steam pipe will ignite
quickly. Boiled linseed oil and turpen-
tine in equal parts on cotton waste Will
ignite in few hours under mild heat
and will in time create enough heat to
ignite spontaneously, says Casters
Magazine. Bituminous coal should not
be stored where it will come in contact
against warm boiler settings or steam
pipes. This coal should not be very
deep If it Is to be kept in storage for
long period. If piled in the basement
of a building it should be shallow and
free from moisture and under good
ventilation. That liable to absorb
moisture should be burned first. II on
fire a small quantity Of water shower
ed on this kind of coal chokes 1t and re-
tards any great supply Of water reach
ing the fire, thus necessitating the over
hauling Of the pipe. Iron chips, filings
or turnings should not be stored In a
shop in wooden boxes. The only waste
which is not infrequently thrown
among them adds to the danger of fire
from this source. The sweeping from
the machine shop, If kept on hand,
should never be placed over iron shaw
ings. This mass of disintegrated iron
is enough to incite heat and combus-
ton. Iron and steel filings and turn
ings when mixed with oil will ignite
spontaneously after becoming damp. A
steam pipe against wood will cause the
latter to ignite spontaneously after be-
ing carbonized, particularly If super
heated steam enters the pipe, thus in
creasing the temperature.

You've heerd about the feller that

Yesterday was Poles fust day on
the street. They put ball an chain
to one of his ankles an sent i'm out
with the niger gang, but all day yes
terday an today he hain't worked
lick. He's as stubborn as a mule.
Thar's been q crowd around i'm all the
time. You kin see i'm standin' up as
straight as a post in the middle of the
street from one end Of it to the other.
I'm sorter sorry fer i'm; he looks like
he's ashamed at bottom, but don't
want to give in. The funniest thing
about the whole thing Is that Pole
seems to know more about the law
than the mayor. He says unless they
force him to work in the specified ten
days they can't hold him any longer.

Nurk's 0ftugenarians.
SAMUEL M. ROACH.

For the second time since the pub
lication Of these sketches was COM
menced, we are enabled to go out Of
the list Of octogenarians, and give the
portrait Of a nonegenarian. The first
in the list of those who had passed
the ninety year mark was Mr.. Thomas
McGill Of Kings Creek, and today's
subject is Mr.. Samuel M. Roach, who
lives near Rock Hill and who, so far
as we have positive information, is the
oldest male citizen Of York county
He Is ninety-two years Of age.
Mr.. Roach's father came to this
country from Ireland and served
through the war Of 1872 as a major in
the American army. He built the
house in which the son, Mr.. Samuel
Roach, is now living, in the year 1911,
the year of Mr.. Samuel Roachs birth.
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1903-08-12

was offered him for the third time he
refused. George Washington Is held
up for Grover Cleveland's imitation.
Like entangling alliances, the third
term is decided according to the opin-
ion Of the first American.
Yet Mr.. Cleveland has run the cam
paign gauntlet three times already, and
he has such illustrious predecessors as
Martin Van Buren and Andrew Jack
son, all of them honorable Democrats.
And one distinguished Republican,
General U. S. Grant-would not have
scorned a third nomination If the Car
field dark horse had not proved so
swift a steed. Jackson and Cleveland,
in fact, have each been elected three
times to the presidency Of the United
States-if, Of course, ours was truly
popular and not representative gov
ernment. Jackson was elected In 1924
with an electoral vote of 80, against
the "a for John Quincy Adams; but
with CLAW of Kentucky and Crawford
Of Georgia, to break the solid south, he
failed In getting a majority Of the elec-
toral vote and the house seated Adams
in the presidential chair. BY popular
vote he won out by $4,000, increasing
that to $4,000 in 1928 and $4,000 in
1892. This gathering of momentum
doubtless gives apocryphal color to the
story that in the mountains of Tennes-
see and North Carolina they are vot-
ing "Ginneral Jackson" yet.
Cleveland presents a similar case of
having increased his popular plurality
in three successive elections from 49,
OO5 in 1884, to 99,524 in 1888 and to
3SO,960 in 1892. The electoral vote of
the middle contest did not answer to
the popularity Of Mr.. Cleveland, Har-
rison getting 233 to Cleveland's 1863,
whereas in the second struggle be-
tween them Harrison won 145 electoral
votes, while Cleveland carried off 277.
1t is evidently then permitted man
to be thrice elected president of the
United States, but he must not be
three times president. The fates will,
without doubt, take care of this, and
man may cease his worrying and. If 1t
seems good to Mr.. Cleveland and to
the Democratic party-he may be per-
mitted to make the run for the fourth
time. His third plurality fell a trihe
short of 100000. McKinley's pluralities
over Bryan both ran near the mil
lion mark. so that there is a possibility
of Cleveland making a 100000 plurali-
ty and yet losing the confirmation Of
the Electoral College. If this be COM
fort we would make the most of 1t
should 1904 present the phenomenon of
a fourth nomination.-St. Paul Dis
patch.

Pole laughed softly. Il reckon yo're

I can't-ef I amt man enough to let
up with q bottle in the house won't

of it Is hell itse'f to a lover Of the

little thing started me on this last

shave in a barber shop, an when the
barber finished he soaked my face in
bay rum, an it got in my mustache.
I kept smellin' it all mornin' an tried
to wipe it of, put she wouldn't wipe.
All the time T. kept walkin' up an
down in front O. Luke Sellmore's bar.
Finally I said to myself, We'll, ef you
have to have barroom stuck under
yore nose all day like a wet sponge,
old man, you mought as well have one
whar it IL taste better, an slid up to
the counter"
The woman sighed audibly, but she
made no reply.
"Is Billy awaken Pole suddenly
asked.
mo; you know he amt" said Mrs.
Baker.
"Well, I want to take i'm in my bed"
Pole stood out on the floor in the sheet
Of moonlight that fell through the open
door.
II wouldn't, Pole," said the woman.
"The pore little feller's been toddlin'
about after the, others. draggin' bresh
to the heap tell he's tired. He drapped
to sleep at the; table with piece o
bread in his mouth"
81 won't wake i'm, God bless his lit
tie heart" answered Pole, and he
reached down and took the limp child
In his arms and pressed him against
the side of his face. He carried him
tenderly across the room and lay
down with him. His wife heard him
uttering endearing things to the un-
conscious child until she fell asleep.

Look heer. Bishop" he satd.
too we'll to have i'm whipped, an the
whole town is guyin' him an akin
i'm why he don't make Pole set in."
Alan went down the street to see
Pole. He found him seated on large
stone. a long handled rock hammer at
his feet. He looked up from under his
broad brimmed hat, and crestfallen
look came into his big brown eyes.
I'm sorry to see this, Pole" said
Alan.
Pole stood up at his full height, the
chain clanking as he rose. 'They hain't
treated me right about this matter,
Alan Bishop" he said, half resentfully,
half as if he recognized his own error
"Bil knows he hain't done the fair
thing. know l was full, but jest
wanted to have my fun. That don't
justify him in putin me out heer
with these niggers fer folks to gap at,
an he knows it. He amt a friend

he is! He's got the wrong sow by the
yeer, though, fer eff he keeps me heer
till Christmas I'll never crack rock
unless do it by accidentally steppin'
on it. Mark my words, Alan Bishop,
thar'll be trouble out O. this"
Don't talk that way, Pole" said
Alan. you've broken the law, and
they had to punish you for it. If they
hadn't, they would have made them
selves ridiculous Why didn't you send
me word you were in trouble, Pole?"
The fellow hung his head and then
blurted out:
"Beca'se l knowed you would make
a fool O. yorese'f an try to pay me out.
Durn it, Alan Bishop, this amt no
business O. yore'n"
"Tll make it my business" said
Alan. How much is your fine? You
ought to have sent me word"
"Sent you nothin', Alan Bishop"
growled the prisoner. when send
you word to hep me out of scrape
that whisky got me into, I'll do it after
I've decently cut my throat! 1 say

At this point of the conversation JEFF
Dukes, man Of medium size, dressed
,,> I,, ,,a al
plated badge shaped like shield and
bearing the words Marshal No. g."
came directly toward them from
stonecutter's shop near by.
Look heer, Bishop" he said dicta-
torially, wizard you git the right to
talk to that man."
Alan looked surprised. "Am break
ing the law too?'
You are ef you hain't got permit
from the mayor in yore pocket"
"Well, | have no permit" replied
Alan with a good natured smile. Have
you got another ball and chain handy?
The officer frowned off his inclination
to treat the matter as a jest. "You ort
to have more sense than that" he said
.rustily. Poles put out heer to work
MS time out, an ef everybody III town
is allowed to laugh an joke with him
he'd crack about as many rocks as you
| or me-"
You are a durn liar, JEFF Dukes,
said Pole angrily. You are a-makin'
that up to huluiliate lie furder. You
