The farmers in this section have
all decided to reducs the cotton
acreage. More attention will be
paid to hog raising and more corn
will probably be planted than even
before.

Several of the Kingstree "sports'

morel that a couple of the sports
from Kingstree got lost in the

Entered Into Rest.

Dock, January 30:-Our COM
munity was grieved last week
by the death of Cne of our Oldest
citizens, Mr. ] G Josey, who
passed away at his home at
Dock last Tuesday night, after
an illness of two weeks.
Mr. Josey had been in failing
health for some time but was
able TO attend to his duties up
to his last Illness. +"
Drs Baker and Mole did all
that medical skill could do but
to no avail, for his time had
come.
Mr. Josey was about .73 years
of age and leaves a host OF
friends and relatives to lament
his death.
Mr. Josey was born and reared
in Kershaw county, but moved
to Williamsburg when quite a
young man. | feel that it is
needless for me to write any
more about the life of our old
friend, for, Mr. Editor, / think
that the name of J G Josey
is familiar in almost every home
in this county. Being an old
man and one who. travelled
around a great deal, he made a
large circle of friends, who will
learn of his death with regret.
His remains were, laid to rest
at Indiantown church, where he
had been a constant member for
a number of years.

in order to gain a clearer idea
: OF the purposes of the appropri.
alton.
1t is proposed in a bill by Mr.
Hamer that all persons convic,
ted OF capital crimes shall be
executed within the walls of the
State penitentiary. This would
relieve the sheriffs of a very un-
pleasant duty.
The ''yalleri" dog is not being
ignored. One member seeks to
amend the capitation tax bill
by exempting dogs from the
property tax, leaving them sub
|ject to only the capitation tax.
Judging from present indica-
tions this will pass. Another
proposition is to repeal the capi-
tation tax. 4
A bill which seems in a fair
way to become enacted into law
is the one providing that all
cases of larceny of live stock
below the value of twenty dol
lars shall be within the jurisdic-
tion of magistrates.
Mr. Sinkler of Charleston has
introduced a bill to abolish
dover. This is an entirely new
idea and does not seep to be
meeting with favor. The right
of dover is one of those ancient
elements of our laws that will
probably go on down the ringing
grooves of change full many a
year more before it be ex-
tinguished.
The new shad bill has been in
troduced and is now before the
committee on agriculture. This
bill is frar ed to meet the OBJ
jections O the United States
district court to the first law by
providing that shad caught
within the waters of the State
must not be shipped out Of the
State. 1t is too early yet to say
anything about what fight may
be made on the measure, but we
may expect this. much, that
should pass, those Georgetown
people who are now reaping the
benefits of the monopoly they
maintain will fight it as long as
there is any show of success.
Mr. Bass's dill authorizing the
county commissioners of Will
iamsburg to sell the poor farm
and buy another nearer Kings
tree, has passed the house and
is LOW in the senate.
The Joint resolution by the
same gentlemen authorizing the
county commissioners to pay
the Pauly Jail Building Co. $3.50,
balance due on new Jail, has
also had three readings in the
lower house.
+, Mr. Bass has introduced a bill
fixing the location and salaries
of magistrates and constables
in Williamsburg and providing
that the sheriff shall act as con
stable for the magistrate at
Kingstree and shall receive for
such service the salary provided
for the constable of said magis-
trate.
Senator Williams and Repre-
sentatives Graham and Bass
spent Saturday and Sunday at
their respective homes.

TIL. bill to restore tobacco
warehouse charges to the
schedule which obtained up tc
January 1st of this year, has
Ipassed the house and senate
and will in all probability be,
come law.
The elections, which were
held Thursday, resulted as fol
lows: Judge of the 9Th circuit,
Eugene Gary to succeed himself;
judge of the 7th circuit, Hon d
L Hydrick to succeed Judge D
A Townsend; superintend ent of
penitentiary, Capt. .GriffiA to
succeed himself; directors of the
penitentiary, Saunders, 'Mobley
and Kirby to succeed Saunders,
Mobley and Rowland.
One of the hottest fights of the
session is being waged over Josh
Ashley's bill to repeal the law
creating the bureau of immigra-
ton. 1t went on fercely for
several hours Friday, when an
armistice was agreed upon to
cease until Tuesday, when the
action will b. opened again.
1t appears more than probable
that some measure will go
through making cursing and
abusing another a crime. Both
houses have considered with
considerable favor bills locking
to this end, which differ largely
only in the point of view of this
matter. One proposition makes
the use of language tending to
provoke a breach of the peace
an assault and assault and bat
terry as we have regarded assat 1t
heretofore; the other provides
that cursing and abusing anoth-
er shall be held a misdemeanor.
The judiciary committee sub
mitted a we'll written report,
holding that several other
changes in the constitution will
be necessary before biennial
sessions of the Assembly would
be practical and recommending
that the matter of ratifying the
amendment voted on last cleo
tion be postponed until the
necessary changes be investi-
gated. This report was adopt
ed and Messrs Frasier, Morgan
and Prince were appointed on
the part Of the house on the
c o m m e e of investigation.
This means that the constitu-
tional as to annual sessions will
not be changed at this session;
and should the committee re-
commend other changes as
necessary to make biennial ses-
sions practical and should these
recommendations be approved
by the Legislature, it will be
several years before the much
discussed change be actually
made.
The OF h er constitutional
amendments submitted at the
election last fall have been rati-
fled.
The old time favorite of some
legislators, the bill to create
new judicial circuits has, of
course, made its annual appear
ance, and we predict that it will
be again shelved. If judges and
lawyers will do their duty, there
would be no need for more
courts.

UNDER WHIP and SPUR.
THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION JUST
HALF OVER.
Rush of Bills-Compulsory Education,
the Dispensary and the Biennial
Sessions Bills Under Fire.

The session of the Assembly is
now just half over. Up to this
point work has been done in a
somewhat leisurely manner, but
the progress henceforward will
be under whip and spur and the
close will be marked by tre-
mendous burst of rush.
AT the closing hour Friday,
four hundred and fifty seven
bills had passed through the en-.
crossing department, the "Third
House" Women are not per
mitted to vote or to hold seats
in either the senate or house of
representatives, but in the
"third house" they are "it"4-
they ioutnumber the male
members ten to one.
The three foremost subjects,
to wit: taxation, compulsory
education and the dispensary
have received no definite and de-
cisive consideration. The two
last named will command at
tention during the coming week
or ten days; the latter, at about
the end of the fifth week. The
education measures all have the
same object, the compulsory at
tendance upon school during a
certain number of weeks each
year, and they differ only in the
details for accomplishing this
object. There are so many new
members in each house that it is
impossible to predict the out
come of these or any other meas
ures upon which no decisive
vote has been reached. The
resolution to investigate the
State dispensary has passed
both houses, but the representa-
tives tackled on an amendment
Ito pay the commission for not
more than thirty days. to which
the senate has not agreed and
the matter has been sent to a
committee of free conference.
There are d number of schemes
looking to tightening up the laws
relating to the return and as
sessment of property for tax
alton, but no proposition looking
to a material increase in onr
revenues, which commends itself
as practical and meritorious has
been presented to the good judg-
ment of the lawmakers.
Senator Williams has a bill in
the senate which, should it be-
come law, will save to the State
from six to eight thousand dol
lors a year and that too without
crippling any branch of the
government. The bill provides
that the State turn over to the
National Government our quar-
ahtine stations and relieve us of
the expense of maintaining.
The United States will accept
this property, maintain the sta
tons, enforce the quarantine
laws, and do this at the expense
of the Federal government and
wlthout charge to anyone. This
measure will not only turn into
our treasury several thousand
and save US the annual appro-
priation for keeping up these
stations, but will be of a very
material benefit to Charleston
and our other ports by removing
the port charges which all ships
must now pay.
| Seduction, which has long
been regarded as justification
for violent means and for even
the taking of life, will, if it be
regarded in the senate in the
same light as it is at the other

A DREAM IN ARCHITECTURE
The Tai Mahai, One Of the WORLDS
Most Beautiful Buildings.

The best Of Tai, says the Metropoli-
tan Magazine Is that however and
whenever one views it II never seems
to lose its freshness its fantastic beau
ty. Enter the great stone portal set In
the walls that surround the tomb and
you step from the blazing dust-choked
atmosphere OF the world into a green,
cool garden. You may sit within a
shaded arbor before a shrub-dotted
lawn and watch the whlterobed ma.
tives moving noiselessly along the
double path that leads to your fairy
palace. it's dome rising, great, white
blazing hemisphere into an azure sky
and its four slender guardian minar-
cts at the four corners Of the pedestal
on which it stands.
Then as the afternoon wears on and
the dome begins to shade half white,
half black and pink evening clouds
float by lazlly. and join the white-robed
natives and move with them slowly
along the walk toward the Tai, listen
ing to their low-volced salutations and
the splashing Of nuntberless little
fountain Jets. The white of the marble
Is softened now. and takes a family
yellow tinge, and as you draw closer
what from the distance seems smooth
untouched white marble, Is in reality
'mtrcately inlaid in graceful scroli-like
patterns over door and archway, all
done IN semiprecious stones Truly
