Arizona Republican, In an in

district of Phoenix, Slavonian
named Denasole attempted to cut
the booze out of half dozen
Swedes, and succeeded to large
extent. Public and official sym

the disgust of the belligerent
Swedes, several of whom were

COUNTY DlSPENSARIES Owe MONEY.
Williamsburg Has Large Stock OF
Liquor on Hand.

Columbia.I .IOcSober 2S:-One OF
the questions likely to come up
in connection with the final
winding up OF the affairs OF the
dispensaries in the fifteen
counties in which prohibition be-
comes effective next month Will
concern the liability for claims
for supplies.
At the present time it looks as
if all of the counties will have
enough money when the bust
ness is closed on the 18th to
pay all claims, and in some OF
these counties some money Will
very likely be turned into the
county treasures as profits.
The present dispensary law
does not make the State liable
beyond the assets in the case OF
each county, and apparently
there is no way to force the
county itself to pay the claims.
According to the checking up
of Auditor West of claims from
the books of the county boards
affected, there is shown a total
of 1926. 161 80 due on claims.
The claims by counties are as

two bushels to the acre. The
cost of producing this corn, IN

follows:

All cOuIllleS eAeeP' ANN'
Lexington, Williamsburg and
Berkeley have been checked up
preparatory to closing on No.
vember Is by Mr. Vests office.
These will be attended to within
the next few days. After the
closing of the dispensaries Mr.
West will check up the re-
p.ainder of the business, and
Ahopes soon after, when the
fixtures have been sold, to be in
a position to have the claims
paid and all of the business in
final shape for the report of the
Legislature.
None of the fifteen counties
have sold out their entire stock.
although a number of individual
dispensaries have disposed OF all
of their stock and have been
closed.
As to whether all of the claims
will be paid, that is a problem
which will have to be settled
later. 1t all depends on whether
the stocks are disposed of or not.
Should any of the stock be left
over it would have to be sold at
a greatly reduced price, and in
that case it would mean that
there would be a deficit, which
would have to be met. The logi-
cal result would be an appeal to
the Legislature for aid.
For instance down in Orange
burg, the stock is worth S43, 423-
I3,according to the statement
issued by Mr. West. There are
not more than a dozen selling
+ days until the dispensarieS in
that county viii close, and the
question is whether the people
of Orangeburg county are going
to buy $4,000 worth of whiskey
each day until the dispensarles
Close.
Williamsburg county is another
striking instance. The stock on
hand in that county is worth
over $4,000 Will all of that
amount be sold by November l5
is the question, and should it not,
then what will be the result?
The remainder of the stock will
have to be sold at about so per
5 cent of it's value. Barnwell also
has a large stock on hand to
he sold.

A CLOSE SHAVE
Many of Them Happening Every Day
 but Soon Forgotten.

Close slaves would be of more Ire quet occurrence but for the tender faces of many men, which will not per mt of shaving often. Heretofore, nothing has been said in these columns about poslam, a new skin discovery, in connection with it's use after shaving. It's publicity and sales have been con- fined almost exclusively to it's remark able properties as an eczema cure; 1t stops the itching at once and cures the worst cases in a few days. While the application of poslam after shaw ing is one of its minor uses, such as for pimples, the complexion, etc., shavers will find it a revelation, as 1t does for abrasions, roughness and severe scrapings what it does for all manner of skin diffculties-heals and cures in a few hours. It is the only article possessing real antiseptic and curative value that has ever been ex- plotted for this purpose, and will soothe and tone up the skin as no toilet prep aration could possibly do.
 Poslam can be had for 50 cents at any reliable druggists, particularly Jacobs Pharmacy, who make a spe- cia1ty of 1t. Or the Emergency Labo- ratories, No. 32 West Twenty fifth street, New York city, will send a trial supply free by mail to any one who will write for 1t. This is sufficient to show results in 24 hours.

 Realistic.

Belgrade January 16.-Patriotism is running riot in Servia. remarkable demonstration of anti-Austrian feeling and illustrative of the high degree the war fever has reached was given at the National theatre during the presen- tation of a play by M. Nushitch dealing with the exploits of the Bosnian hero, Hadji Loya, who resisted the Austrian invasion of his province and fell shout ing. Drive them out"
 The simulated cosnbats between the imperial troops and the insurgents were so realistic that twice real blood flowed on the stage. It had proved impossible to find any Servian willing to don the Austrian uniform, and gypsies had to be impressed into service. Their, role was pitiful, for they were numerically pelt- ed by the audience, and as the play pro ceeded and passions waxed stronger they barely showed themselves on the stage, and finally fled.
