4 New Dispensary idea.

A we'll defined idea has taken root
in the mind of the state board CT con-
troll, says Columbia special to the
News and Courier today. l. is to in
terest the leading grocery houses in
tee sale of bottled LIQUOR as agents of
the dispensary system, branch dis
pensary system, branch dispensaries,
70 to speak.
Some years ago some such plan
was suggested and urged; how it
will now take is uncertain and doubt
fal. Tie plan is to see if such firms
as Samuel H. Wilson, KIinck- Wick
enberg, Welch & Eason, and other
firms of that standing will consent to
sell the finer grades of liquors and
wines for the dispensary under dis
pensary regulations. The idea is
being particularly pressed by one
member of the board of control and
hopes to see his views carried out.
He urges that such agencies will
populatize the dispensary; will offer
q medium for purchases where buy
ers are averse to petronizing out and
out dispenssries, and that they will
be source Of considerable revenue
to the state, city and county. The
contention is that such plan would
be permissible under the present law.
That is very questionable, but the
dispensary law has ever beer IS
stretchable as rubber band and the
state board is almost supreme. At
all events the board could urge the
necessary Legislation if the plan be
decided upon. The idea is now to
try the plan in Charleston, and if it
works we'll there to extend it's opera
tions. It would be popular move,
but whether prudent or acceptable is
another matter. The suggestion is
that fancy grocers prior to the dis
pensary law in many instances sold
finer and bottled liquors, and that
the scheme would be to return to
such a plan only under dispensay
dispensation, and the sales to be
made of liquors bought through the
state board of control.

exemplary member to the TINE of
her death.
In the death of Mrs. Stuart, one of
our oldest and most highly esteemed
citizens, God speaks to US again in
solemn tones of the fight of time,
and Of that limitless ocean upon
whose shores we all shall soon stand.
Death has call seasons for it's owr,"
it presses with its icy lips its cold
kiss alike on the cheek of the prat-
Ting infant and the aged pilgrim
weary with the journey of life.
This mother in Israel was not un-
mindful Of the flight of years or for
get:ul Of their meaning, but as the
faithful disciple of Christ she redeem
ed the time, she counted the years
as The Cod given cycles of time, and
to her they were as q swiftly flying
chariot that should soon land her at
the bright portals of her heavenly
Fathers house. The tenor OF her
life indicated that she regarded her.
self as pilgrim here below hasten
ing to another county, city beyond
the strife and sorrow of human ex-
istence, a city whose builder and
maker is God.
While on earth she tarried. The
years Of her long and goodly life
were weighted with the rich fruits of
the spirit of love, meekness, patience,
hope..and peace.
The bereft ones that remain have
the precious consolation that the
sainted mother awaits their coming
and bids them to press onward amid
their sadness till their tolls and
cares are Ger: and all their grief
turned to gladness, on the fair celes-
tial shore. The departed expressed
her Christian hope in these beauti-
full lines:
Beyond the sunsets radiant glow
There is a brighter world, I know.
Where golden glorieS ever shine
Beyond the thought Of days decline
Beyond the sunsets purple rim,
Beyond the twilight, deep and dim
Where clouds and darkness never come
My soul shall find its heavenly home
Beyond this desert dark and drear
The golden city will appear;
And mornings lovely beams arise
Upon my mansion in the skies
The obsequise took place at the
residence of the family in the pres
