Constables Are Fined.

A dispensary case decision was
handed down in a magistrates court
in Columbia q few days ago Of much
general interest and Importance
throughout the state. The decision
finds two dispensary constables, w. L..
4. Johnson and J. H. Killett, guilty
of trespass after notice at the Shull
place, ir Washington street, which
the constables have raided time and
time again. but which is constantly
blossoring out with a new charter
from the secretary Of state as a so

have already made a small fortune at
the business. The magistrate i'm
posed a fine OF S. on each of the con-
stables. The case will be taken 10
the supreme court in all liklihood.
The warrants were sworn OUT
against the constables by J. H. Gas
ton, the owner ct the premises. who
charges the defendants with trespass,
after notice. The magistrate finds
that II the constables had been armed
with search warrants they could have
taken as much time rs they desired N
making the search.

PORT ARTHUR GIVEN Up!
Great Fortress is az Last Surrendered to
Japs by Gen. Stoessel to Stop Further
Needless Sacrifice of Lives.

On scanty rations, on every SIDE
knowing that hope OF succor Or es-
cape was il vain, the garrison has
fought with stubbornIess tha; has
evoked the admiration OF the world.
They met the untir.ng assaults OF the
japanese with a grim valor that won
even the praise OF their foes, and the
fighting has been Haged with a relent'
lessness that they often refused
truces to bury the dead and collect
the Wounded.
Over corpse-filled trenches men
have fought hand to hand with cold
steel and dubbed guns, and at short
range have hurled at each other hand
grenades filed with high explosives.
The whole story is one OF undaunted
courage and sublime bravery.
A. Russian officer declares that 1t
cost the japanese eighty thousand
men to take the fortress, while others
say they have lost at least one hum
dred thousand. The number OF Rus
slams dead is not known, even to the
high officers.

Question of Peace Probiematiea..

s
To what extent the fall of Port Ar
thur will make for a restoration OF
peace is an open question. There is
an encouraging note, in the expression
of Baron Hayashi. Japanese minister
at London. Of the hope that In some
way it will facilitate finai peace,
though the pacific note is perhaps lost
in the later words OF the minister,
which call attention to the fact that
the besieging army will now be free
to go north, where it will be an on
set to the reinforcements General kl-
ropatkin has been receiving from Rus
sia since the battle OF Shakhe. The
spirit Of the Russians may be judged
by the statement OF the secretary OF
the embassy at London that the CAM
paign will be renewed with fresh Wig
or in the spring. and that the nation
will not be content to permit Port Ar
thur to remain in the hands o. the
Japanese. -ss' ~. ~. s..
Both in Paris anu in London. the
opinion is that the squadron under
Vice, Admiral Rojestvensky, which
started from Libau for the Far East
three months ago. will have to retrace
its way home. as adherence to the
original plans would invite disaster
without probability of effecting a
junction with the warships al present

lars worth of cotton, estimated at

in the southern, part OF this (Pottam.
artomie) county. furnished q huge
bonfire with which to greet the New
Year.
In the presence Of large crowd
the torch was applied, and the ascend.
ing smoke was q witness, 1t was de-
clarcd that the farmers Of the sec.
section are not to be outdone by those
of other sections in the effort to re-
duce tne supp.y Of cotton and restore
the equilibrium Of the market.
The fire was the result Of banter
ing Jest which spread rapidly through
out the town and community. The
Joke soon became q reality, and near
". every farmer around Asher contrlb-
uted of his surplus cotton to add TO
the bonfire. - @
In a short time after the movement
was begun. considerable cotton had
been dumped in the pile, which rapid
'ly increased in size. One man con-
tributed two bales, many others q
bale each. while load after load OF
seed cotton went to sven the pile.
When all was in readiness, DAD
Coleman, after delivering short
speech, applied the torch and the as
sembled hundreds cheered the clouds
of smoke as they ascended.
