Dispensaryites VIII Seek TO Prevent
Election in Spartanburg.

Spartanburg, August 9Th. = The
petitions asking for an election in Spar
tanburg County to vote out the Dispen-
sary, were filed to-day with County
Supervisor Miles. The committee claims
to have ample names and more than
the required proportion.
1t was stated to-day that, as soon as
the election is ordered by Supervisor
Miles, am injunction will be asked for.
When the attorney was asked on what
grounds the injunction would be asked
for, he said plainly that it would be sim
ply to gain time, and was only intended
to hold things in statu quo until after
January, when the General Assembly
would change things. He said that the
complaint would be that the petitions
were irregular and not sufficient, and
when it was suggested that this was a
matter for the supervisor, it was said
that made no difference, as the inten-
tion was merely to tie the thing up in
the Courts until after the fall trade,
and if reference was ordered there
would be no trouble for Spartanburg to
hold on to its Dispensaries and not hold
the desired elections. News and Cou-
rier.

RAISING AN ENDOWMENT.
Effort Making to Endow Presbyterian
College of South Carolina.

A strong effort is being made by the
friends of the Presbyterian College of
South Carolina to raise an endowment
of $50, 600 during the month of August
for this Institution.
Rev. w. G. Neville, President of the
College and two members of the board
of trustees, Dr. w. M. M'Pheeters of
Columbia and Rev. S. G. Byrd of
of Winnsboro, are making canvass of
the State for this purpose.
DR.. M'Pheeters spent last We'd
nesday in Laurens and accompanied
by DR.. Robert Adams, who is Chair
man of the Board of Trustees of thl
College, he called upon number Of
the friends of the institution here. He
met with a hearty response. He is
averaging about $1,000 day, fact
that is very encouraging to those who
are anxious to see successful issue of
the effort.

Accidentally Shot.

Friends of G. A. Browning and family
will be glad to know that little James
Browning, who was accidentally shot
at Goldville several days ago, is hold
ing his own and attending physicians
have strong hopes of the little fellows
recovery. A letter received yesterday
from Mr.. Browning said that his son
was bright that day and seemed to be
gaining strength.
The wound, which was made by 32
caliber bullet, is extremely dangerous,
the ball having entered the face in the
cheek just below the eye and coming
out in the neck Where it left the skin
the large muscles were badly lacerated.
1t seems that in some way number
of children secured possession of pis-
tol which was accidentally discharged.

Despite the heroic efforts of the ex-

man here. "You can always depend
upon it that it is a married man who
shows you the small courteses in an
elevator; it is the married man who
stands up for you in the street car, and
it is married man who does all the
chores at picnic. The most thought

often becomes a veritable model of
amiability after he gets him wife. -

good manners into him that he has to
keep practicing all the time to keep in
trim. believe business men have
more respect for married man, too
They succeed better in everything they
do. Why, only the other day there
was baseball game between the mar
ried men and the single men, Who won?

can't tell me their wives did not have
something to do with it. Philadelphia

THE PEACE CONFERENCE.
Terms for Ending the Russo.Japanese
War Under Discussion.

The Peace Conference which is being
held at Portsmouth, N. H., between the
plenipotentiaries representing Russia
and Japan i5 making rather slow pro-
gress and long and tedious session
seems to be in sight if continued. Three
articles of the Peace terms have been
disposed of but it is believed there will
be rupture in the proceedings which
may be broken off abruptly at any time.
The main features of the peace con.
ditions handed by Baron Komura of
Japan to the Russian ENJOYS are as fol-
lows:
Reimbursement for the expenditures
sustained in the prosecution of the war
and the cession of the Island of
Sakhalin.
The amount of the indemnity is not
named, but will be mutually adjusted.
The other terms are: The cession of
the Russian leased to the Liaotung Pc
ninsula, comprising Port Arthur and
Dalny; the evacuation of the entire
province of Manchuria, the retrocession
to China of any privileges Russia may
have in the province and the recogni-
tion by Russia of the principle of the
"open door," the cession to Japan of
the Chinese eastern railroad below Har-
bin, the main line through northern
Manchuria to Valdivostok to remain
Russian property; the recognition of
the japan protectorate over Korea.
The grant of fishing rights to Japan in
the waters of the Siberian littoral
northward from Viadivostok to the
Bering sea; the REIMBURSEMENT to Japan
of the Russian warships interned in
neutral ports; finally a limitation upon
the naval strength of Russia in far
eastern waters.
