Lowly Moors peered in the cafe

only fault they had to find with Rails

When RaiSuli got up to leave the

WORLDS RICHEST CHILD.
John Nicholas Brown, Years Old is
Worth IS Millions.

With IS millions in his own right
4-year-old Nicholas Brown OF Provi-
dence, R. l., is today the richest child
in the world. There are several little
boys and girls in the world who are
prospectively richer than little John
Nicholas Brown, including the infant
child of John D. Rockefeller, Jr.. the
| Vanderbilt and Gould children, and
the youthful heirs presumptive oi
some of the royal houses-but there
is none of his tender years who has in
his own right anything like the for.
tune he possesses.
When his father and uncle died
four years ago, this month, the pro-
perty that they left this little boy
was conservatively estimated at Il
million dollars. This vast accumula,
ton of wealth is being wisely man,
aged and carefully invested. Much
OF it is gilt edged real estate, millions
of it is invested in high class bonds
and it is safe estimate that when the
boy is FL the property will have near
| ly tripled. If he lives to reach his
majority-and he is quite healthy
boy-he will find upwards OF 40 mil
lions of dollars awaiting him.
| When John Nicholas Brown, ia
ther of the boy, died at his New York
mansion on May I, 1900. the baby
was but two months old. He was not
healthy, and it was feared he would
never live to secure the f million dol
lars and more left him by his fathers
will. Today one would never imagine
that his health, even his life, was
feared for four years ago.
There was tragedy connected with
this baby's possession of the second
fortune that came to him. Harold
Brown. only brother of John Nichol'
as, was travelling abroad for his health
when word reached him that it was
feared his brothers illness would be
fatal. He at once prepared to leave
for home. Physicians told him he
was threatened with pneumonia, but
nothing could prevail upon him moi
to return at once.
He sailed on the Teutonic, which
had stormy voyage. When thu
vessel arrived he had to be removed
to the hotel Netherlands in an ambu'
lance. He was told that his brother
had died, and he sank under the blow
In ten days he was dead, and little
John Nicholas Brown, wailing in his
nurses arms, became the sole male
representative of the line of Johr
Carter. wealthy manufacturer, East
India merchant and millionaire phil
anthropist.

big, black and long-lsshed. His nose
is of the Roman type, but most deli
cately modelled Lips, heavy. but
we'll turned, are not concealed by his
glossy, ointment-treated mustache
and whiskers. He follows the custom
of shaving the hair off under part OF
the lower lip. When I admired his
ivory handled curving knife in scab'
bard Of exquisitely wrought silver and
light blue enamel, he was childishly
happy. When his shoes caught my
eye he insisted upon removing them
and showing the beauty OF the handi-
work in detail. He was smoking a
cigarette held in an amber holder a
half foot long. Requiring both hands
to hold one Of the yellow boots. he
startled me by suddenly crossing his
legs and slipping the cigarette holder
between his toes. He talks English
only little, but in French and Span
ish he is as voluble and vehement as
in his own tongue.
With very free smile he admitted
that the bandit business was his pro-
fession. He SAID he had a right to
kidnap people and levy tribute-a

DISPENsARlES HELD UP.
Chief Justice Pope Steps in Front Of
Board of Directors.

1t vas thought that the actlon OF
the State Board of D1spensary direc-
tors, at their last regular meeting, in
ordering out stocks of goods for the
Lake City and Scranton dispensaries
following the order of Judge Purdy,
disseminating the injunction against
their icing opened, marked the end
of the court troubles of these dis
pensaries, which have been held up
by legal objections of various and
sundry sorts for several years. But
it seems that the legal skirmishes are
not over yet, though they do appear
to he nearing the end.
Chief Justice Pope on application
of Mr. " L Bass has stepped in front
of the board of directors with an Or
der staying proceedings under Judge
Purdy's order of the 18th of Jan
uary, dissolving the injunction then
barring the board. The new order
requires the defendants to show
cause on the 9th why the stay Or
der of the chief justice should not
continue, pending the decision by
the supreme court of the appeal
which the plaintiffs made from the
order of Judge Purdy. The county
board, it is said. ordered the opening
of the dispensaries in the face of a
majority petition against their estab-
lishment, but Judge Purdy in dis
continuing the injunction decided
with the county board that the petit
tion could not be consider ed, because
it came in after the time required by
law. If the chief Justices order is
continued the dispensaries are in for
many more months of litigation and
their would-be patrons will brought
to still fuller appreciation of the
deep poetic sentiment expressed by
the governor of South Carolina to
the governor of North Carolina.
The case is that of Morris against
Murphy and others, the plaintiffs
being represented by Messrs W l.
Bass and S W G shipp and the de-
PENDANTS by Mr. W F Clayton.-The

son officiating. at 10 o'clock, on
Thursd az, the 18th inst, their beau
tiful and accomplished daughter,
Miss Nita, and Mr. J " johnson, Of
the ,ity Of Charleston, were made
one; and the name of Miss Nita was
changed so as to read, Mrs Nita
Beatty Johnson"
The groom is tall and handsome
and is a christian gentleman; bat
the word handsome" does not ex-
press the beauty of the bride. Her
curly hair, so trimmed as 20 hang in
waving ringlets, and curling festoons
about her ears and neck needed no
other ornaments, and the bright,
sensible lady seemed to know it, and
wisely left off every thing of the
kind; no veil, no ribbons, no rose
bud in her hair; simple, beautiful
nature. And l opine that Father
Aoam, the morning that be awoke
from that deep anesthetic sleep
when the Great Surgeon took one of
his ribs and. made him a helpmeet,
arose to look upon no lorelier form
nor sweeter grace.
The bride wore a cream dress of
something good and warm; but /
don't know what it was. My wife
says she also wore a cape or some
thing with pendants; but l hardly
remember seeing it.
An elaborate wedding dinner of
luscious >iands was served at ID m,
after which the bride and groom
stepped in their waiting buggy and
babe farewell, amidst showers of rice
and shoes from her lovely sisters,
wishing them every JOY possible.
They were due at Kingstree at 9p.
m. to meet the train for their home

But we didn't, We wouldn't, We
couldn't desert that model we'd

on our way back at the home of our
