swamped by the protesting shrek OF

There was a huddie of passengers
along the starboard rail. If one could
have looked up at their faces from ever
board. they would doubtless have been
seen to exhibit such emotions as are
projected from the gallery when a meIo-
drama is nearing its crisis. Only, in
stead of a stage, they were staring into
a gray void, watching for whatever man

Near OMara and Mrs. Noel, as they

Federal VS.. Stnte Statutes.

Charleston special to the Green
vile News: In the court of COM
mon pleas here today Judge r Q
Watts made ruling which cons
Germs the constitutionality of the
dispensary law. The suit Was
brought by Gallagher & Burton
against the estate of j. F. Braioo-
vich for liquors. The purchase
was admitted but payment was re-
fused under the following clause
of the dispensary law: "The
possession of said illicit liquors is
hereby prohibited and declared
unlawful, and any obligation or
note of Indebtedness contracted
in their sale or transportation is
declared to be absolutely null
and void, nor shall any action nor
suit for the recovery of the same
be entertained in any court in this
state" Judge Watts ordered a
verdict for the plaintiff, holding
that otherwise interstate COM
merce would be restricted and the
rights of trade would be abridged,
barring the recovery of a just
debt through the courts. The
case will probably go to the high
est courts and attract much at
tention before it is finally set
tied.

which would hardly hold mp a NOR
tgOge ten years ago but is now

But the sweetness of "Yankee

tirely the rancor toward Yankees in
the heart of the Aikenite, and he
longed to lord it over the rich
swells-just once.
AS necessity is the mother of in
vention, so does envy sometimes
foster novel ideas. A bright Idea
fastened itself on the intelligence
of Mr. BLANK. A tract, not valuable
to fimself, was very desirable to
some northern folks and by them
very much desired. For the cash
consideration which they offored,
MIR. Blank agreed to part fl om his
realty, but with the stipulation,
500 of the amount to be repres
cnted ty nste secured bv mort

that the 800 must not be paid dur

whim was gratified and now the
