CHAPTER XVII.

We were going home. Our trunks
were packed and our passage engaged.
We told each other we were glad to
go. but If the truth were known, we
were all very melancholy and wan

articles in resigned silence which
grew more and more depressing as the
afternoon advanced.

day." observed Elizabeth, flattening
her nose against the window pane as
she peered out into the gray drizzle
which harmonized so well with our
state of mind.
"It is like our first week on the
island" replied Gabrielle. DO you
remember how we went out into the
rain and found the cottage? 1t seems
a thousand years ago"
Dear little housed" said Elizabeth,

We echoed her sigh; this was our

SAYS THE CITY COURTS CAN'T
Try Tigers--Judge Aldrich Renders
Far-Rcaching Decision.
columbia State Special)

Anderson, Sept. 25.-An appeal
case from the mayors court, involv-
Ing an important question of juris-
diction, was decided before Judge
Aldrich in the sessions court to-day.
The appeal was from decision of
the mayor imposing a fine of 500
or 80 days for selling whiskey. APP
pellant's counsel took the position
that the mayors court had no iu-is.
diction to try a defendant charged
with selling liquor in the same juris-
diction with the magistrates; that the
mayor had only concurrent jurisdic-
ton with the magistrate and that,
as the statutes gave a magistrate no
jurisdiction to try such cases the
mayor was bound also by the same
statutory limitation. The general
| statutes give the mayor OF the city
the same powers as magistrate,
and it was argued by counsel for the
defense that a city council could not
extend by ordinance the jurisdiction
| defined by the Legislature.
The decision of Judge Aldrich, in
case 1t is sustained by the Supreme
Court, will be of the most far-reach-
ing consequence. 1t might seriously
hamper the enforcement of the liquor
law in every town and city in the
State. All that the police depart
meht of city could do would be to
make arrests and have a warrant is
sued by magistrate. The magis-
trate would then, if upon prelimi-
nary hearing the evidence warranted
1t, send the case up to the sessions
! court for trial.
The decision has attracted a great
deal of interest here. Tho city will
appeal to the Supreme Court, and a
decision of that tribunal will be
awaited with general interest over
the State.
New Trial for Webb Simmons.
Judge Aldrich to-day granted a
new trial for Webb Simmons, the
young white man under sentence for
the murder OF United States Deputy
McAdams last February. Simmons
was sentenced by Judge ShipD in
May to hang July %. The grounds
on which new trial was granted
was an affidavit Of J. Fl. Hardin. a
well known young farmer, to the
| effect that p. e. Norris, a member
of the jury, told him that Simmons
should hang, and that if he, Norris.
was drawn on the jury he would
hang Simmons.
In granting the new trial Judge
Aldrich recommended to Solicitor
Bonham that a warrant be issued for
the arrest of Norris, charging him
with perjury, and that Mr.. Dagnall,
attorney for Simmons, be made q
witness to prove the charge. Norris
emphatically denies the charge.
