An Outrageous Charge.

. A dispatch from Albany, Ca, to
the Savannah Morning News says:
Accompanied by Thomas M. Raysor,
senator from Orangeburg County,
South Carolina; Richard S. Whaley,
speaker of the South Carolina house
Of representatives, and also by his
father, brother and several friends,
Peter B. Zeigler, who was forced to
leave Albany one week ago bya num-
ber of young men, who charged him
with having negro blood in his veins,
returned today. All members of the
party refused to talk, though it is
taken for granted that their visit is
for the purpose of answering the
charge made against young Zeigler.
Developments are expected to-mor-
row. The young men who required
Zeigler to leave Albany waited on
him one evening, escorted him to a
point several miles from the city and
placed him aboard an early morning
train northbound.
Since the above was in type we see
BY the papers that the affair has been
settled by the conference mentioned
above, and young Zeigler will remain
In Albany.

A littie indefinite.

A prominent New York lawyer says
that in his earlier professional days he
was glad to expand his slender income
by bill collecting. On one occasion he
had a bill against man who incl.
dentally has. since achieved a success
which puts him beyond the necessity
of such an indefinite statement as he
made on that occasion. The young
lawyer found him with his feet prop
ped upon his desk, while he gazed
dreamily at the ceiling through cloud
Of tobacco smoke.
"But, really, sir, must insist that
you give me some definite idea as to
when you will SETTLE" the lawyer said
after having been gently rebufed.
The author consented to lower his
eyes and to wave his pipe languidly.
"Why, certainly, sir, though there
seems to me to be rather unneces-
sary commotion about this trife," he
drawled. II will pay the bill as soon

CONTE1pT CASE AT GREENVILLE.
Sheriff Gilreath Tried Before Mag
istrate, but is Dismissed.

GREENvILLE, March 18.-Because
Sheriff Gilreath refused to serve Ger
tain legal papers in a civil suit, At
torney Dorroh secured a rule for
contempt against the official. The
question was heard before a magis-
trate today and the proceedings
were dismissed, the Court deciding
that it had no jurisdiction. 1t seems
that Attorney Dorroh had brought
suit in the form of a summons for
debt on behalf of some foreign cor
poration and carried the papers to
the sheriff for him to serve on the
defendant. The sheriff demanded
his fees in advance and the attorney
declined to pay them. The rule for
contempt followed. The magistrate
took the ground that the sheriff was
an officer of the Common Pleas
Court, and as such could not be
punished for contempt by a magis-
trate. It is not known whether any
further steps will be taken.
