THE FAMOUS GIN LAW.
Hoss u Was Received ard Evadsd BY
the English Public.

Hoss u Was Received ard Evadsd BY
the English Public.
The famous "gin law" passed in
1886, is interesting as the earliest
severe blow at liquor dealing among
civilized nations. 1t levied tax OF
20 shillings a gallon on spirits and
a license of ESQ for any one selling
or dealing in them. And, being in
advance of public opinion, it failed,
much as other more stringent pro-
hibition laws have failed in our
own day, for the cry was at once
raised that it taxed the poor mans
gin and let the rich mans wine 60
free. Every wit, every caricaturist,
had his fling at it. Ballads were
hawked around telling Of the ap-
preaching death Of Mother Gin. The
liquor shops were hung with black
and celebrated uproariously Nine.
Geneva's lying in state, her funeral,
her wake, and SO on. The night be-
fore the law went into effect, so the
contemporary journals say, there
was a universal revel all over the
country. Every one drank his I'LL
and carried home as much gin be-
sides az he could pay for.
To evade the law apothecaries
sold it in walls and small pack
ages, sometimes colored and dis
guised, generally under false labels,
such 40 "Colic Water" "Makeshift, |"
Ladies' Delight" There were
printed directions on some of these
packages. g., "Take two or three
spoonfuls three or four times a day
or as often as the fit takes you"
Informers were very prominent and
exceedingly offensive, inventing
snares to catch lawbreakers for the
sake of the heavy rewards and spy
ing and sneaking around in a way
particularly distasteful to the Eng
hsh mind. In consequence they
suffered in their turn. The mere
cry, 'Liquor spy!" was enough to
raise a mob in the London streets,
and the informer was lucky IL he
escaped with a sound thrashing and
o ducking in the Thames or the
nearest horse pond. Indeed such an
outcry was made about the matter
that the ministry became very un-
popular, and the law was not en-
forced after two or three years and
was largely modified in 1743.-Lon-

A DOUBLE MURDER.

Late Wednesday evening the
news OF a double murder four
miles from Franklin in the
swamp reached this City, too
late tor publication in yesterdays
paper. From news received to
day It is evident that the guilty
parties have escaped to the
swamps leaving no trace that can
be followed by hounds that were
tsken to the spot. 1t is sup
posed however,that the murder
ers and thieves were negroes
although swamper who lived
not far from the murdered
couples place is missing and if
he is found it is possible that he
may be able to give some evid-
enee that will clear up the mys-
terv.
The victims of the murder
were Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Seltrey, whose bodies were not
found I'LL late Wednesday morn
ing. The woman's body was
found outside their house and
the husbands inside. Ii was
evident that there were three in
the attacking party for the
wounds were inflicted by three
different kinds OF guns.
Mrs. Selfrey was evidently
preparing TO make bread on the
following morning when she was
first shot through the window.
She was only wounded by this
shot and siezed a gun with
which she ran out iato the yard
where she was again shot, this
time fatally.
The report OF the first shot
had evidently aroused her hus-
band who was lying on his bed.
As he started to get up he wa,
lain by a charge Of heavy slugs.
| hen the murdsrers ransscked
he house tor the money it was
ePorted was kept there, the
:ouple having the reputation OF
'elns misers. Whether they
ound any money is net knswn
'ut the ewelry Of the couple -
vas taken and the contents OF
heir pockets also.
IL was not until late that day
hat the word OF the murder
{ the couple reached the Sheriff
