Fine Reduced.

The governor today acted on the petit
ton of Levi Whalcy, convicted of adultry
at the spring term, 1913, of the Circuit
court of Barbour. The governor reduced
the fine from 1876 to $780, entering on the
application the following as his reasons
therefor:
This man was convicted of living In
adultry. A jury fined him 1915. which
seems to have been rather excessive. The
court added six months in jail to this
punishment Since his conviction the ne
gro has married his paramour. Many of
the best citizens of the town in which the
onense was committed unite in a petition
for his full pardon. 1t is ordered the
sentence be reduced to the payment of
costs and $780,

Rock, is the consulting engineer. The
sewer is to be 1850 feet long near
ly three miles. This is one of the
many improvements to be added to the
city in the year 1903. 1t will be the
result of the ladies wanting a hospital
for the city, and when the question
was considered it developed that the
hospital without proper sewerage
would be an unsatisfactory institution
Getting the sewer seemed an insur-
ln0untable obstacle, but the women of
the hospital association of this city

credit is all theirs Mr. White did all

Rosemary.

In the south of Europe the rosemary
has long had magic properties ascribed
to 1t. The Spanish ladies used to wear
It as an antidote against the evil eye.
and the Portuguese called 1t the elfin
plant and dedicated it to the fairies.
The idea Of the antidote may have
been due to confusion of the name
with that Of the Virgin; but. as mat
ter Of fact. the roslmarinus is frequent
~ mentioned by old Latin writer's, In
Guiding Horace and Ovid. The name
came from the fondness Of the plant
for the seashore, where 1t often gets
sprinkled with the ''ros," or dew of the
sea-that is to say, sea spray. Another
cause of confusion perhaps was that
the leaves Of the plant somewhat re-
semble those of the Juniper. which in
medieval times was held sacred to the
Virgin Alary.-All the Year Round.
