terboro, special judge, presiding. The
Hon. J.. C.. Otis, of Gafney, solicitor,
and Court St~enographer Smith were
both on hand. There were a number
of bills handed the grand jury by the
Asolicitor, but before this was done
hdge Gruber made an able charge.

ground that the attorneys
defendant had had ample time
Ike all. their arrangements n

Eher, that by the delaying of the
se it caused a further delay in JUS

from this morning it would
most probably mean that the case
would not come up until the Septem-
Der term Of court.
His honor, Judge .Gruber, after
hearing arguments from both sides in
regard to postponing the motion, de-
cided that the hearing must be pro-
ceeded with today. Attorneys for the
defendant then proceeded to read
their petition for the new trial and
the affdavitst in support thereof,
which were numerous and volumin-
GUS, and the hearing of them occu-
pied the morning hour. When courr
reconvened in the afternoon the STATE
presented it's afidavits, for the pur-
pose of showing why the motion
should not be granted. Counsel for
the defendant, as each affidavit was
read, objected to such portions as
were considered irrelevant or lncom-
petent. In this way the whole after
noon was consumed.

Her Diamond Necklace.

Brown is q very careful man. He is superlatively careful. So careful is he that he has insured his insurance money.
 Now, Brown has a wife. Wives have to be given birthday presents, and on his wife's first birthday after their marriage he gave her a beautiful dia- mond necklace. This was not as reck- less as you might think, for each stone on the necklace represented a year of Mrs. Browns life, and he let every one know that. And he arranged to give Mrs. Brown a new diamond each birthday And he let the neighbors know that too.
 He has just missed giving his wife a birthday present for the ninth success sive year.
 As to when greed will conquer pride and his wife will ask for another birth day present, we shall have to wait and see.-Pearson's.

The Salt Charm Failed.

Some three years before the Franco German war broke out Count Secken- dorff accompanied King William I. on his visit to Napoleon III. and was present at the celebrated dejeuner giv- en in the Pavilion de Diane at Fon- tainebleau. King William, who was sitting next the empress, was asked by her to pass the salt, and in comply ing with this request he threw little salt over his shoulder. Upon the em- press exclaiming, "Why do you do thatT' the king explained that in his country it was the custom to do so when passing the salt to ward off bad luck and any chance of quarrel. The empress. in a prettily turned speech at once replied. But surely there is no danger of anything interfering with our friendship" Tn less than three years the Germans had crossed the Rhine.-London Spectator.

Pottery and Secrecy.

' Ih the royal manufactory of pottery at Meissen, Saxony,. the work was for
 u.erly carried on with the utmost se- erecy to prevent the processes from
 becoming known elsewhere. The es- tablishment was a complete fortress, the portcullis of which was not raised day or night. no stranger being per mitted to enter for any purpose what ever. Every workman, even the chief inspector. was sworn to silence. This injunction was formally repeated every month to the superior officers employ ed, while the workmen had constantly
 before their eyes in large letters the warning motto. "Be Secret Unto Death" 1t was we'll known that any person divulging the process would be imprisoned for life in the castle of Koenigstein. Even the king himself when he took strangers of distinction to visit the works was enjoined to se- crecy. One of the foremen, however, escaped and assisted in establishing a manufactory in Vienna, from which the secrets spread all over Germany.

He Saved the Patent Office.

When in the war of 1872 the British, who had taken Washington, trained their guns upon the patent office, pr. Thornton. throwing himself directly before the guns, cried:
 "Are you Englishmen or Goths and Vandals? This is the patent office-a depository of the ingenuity and inven- tions of the American nation, in which the whole civilized world is interested Would you destroy it? Then let the charge pass through my body"
 And the building was spared. Twen- ty-four years afterward, however, it was destroyed by fire, together with everything in it.

Japan's Giant WrestIers.

Japanese wrestlers are not to be con- fused with Japanese opponents of jiu jitsu. The wrestlers belong to the older school, in which weight is par amount quality. It is a remarkable thing that race which is on the av- craze four or five inches under the Flu ropean standard in point of height should have produced a special cult of wrestlers who are giants in stature and strength. The leading wrestlers of Tokyo or Osaka or Hiogo are all men at least six feet in height and weighing perhaps 300 pounds. They are a race apart. Wrestling is an oc- cupation which. has been handed flown from father to son for many genera tions. And the explanation of their prowess is that they have always been meat eaters, while the rest of Japan, either from choice or necessity, have been in the main Vegetarians.

The Ham Fair at Paris.

"A feature of Parisian life is the ham fair which is held on the Boulevard Richard Le Noir. The name of this fair is wholly misleading, for as far as I have ever seen hams are the very last thing any one ever buys there. Old brass and copper curios, quaint jewelry, rare china, lace, tapestries and books are what most people go out to seek, and sight not to be easily forgotten is the long, wide boulevard lined with ramshackle stalls laden with every possible kind of lumber and presided over by the most rapacious of brocanteurs. Out of piles of value less lumber Americans and English diligently seek for their pet kind of curios, and there is not an artist in Paris who cannot point to some bit of furniture in his or her studio and say with pride, "I got that for francs at the ham fair.'' No one ever pays more than francs, I notice, but, alas, every year these five franc bargains are becoming more rare, and even as housekeeping in Paris grows more and more costly so does the furnishing of ones house to keep.-London Queen.

Only a Question of Possibility.


 Among the customers of a tea store opened in the northwest part of the city the other night was a man who, after buying a pound of coffee, handed a counterfeit half dollar to the shop keeper.
 'This money is counterfeit; Pm sor- ry, sir," said the shopkeeper.
 "Yes; I know it." replied the cus- toner, grinning. "Got it here one day last week, and I've been saving it for you" Then, noting the smile upon the shopkeeper's face, the customer said, evidently offended, "Perhaps you doubt my word?"
 "Oh, not at all, sir; not at all. couldn't doubt the word of so truthful a man. I was simply smiling because I wondered how it was possible for you to have got the money here. This place was opened only night before last"
 Thereupon the customer departed hastily after producing a good coin and slipping the counterfeit into his own pocket.-Philadelph Times.

Why Not Pass the PIata2

They ought to pass the plate at church weddings. It comes natural to do 1t in church. and to do so would add pretty and useful employment to the duties of the ushers, who always have a little spare time before the bride arrives. And, really, getting married is more expensive than ever. and, though wedding presents are ex- cellent in their way, what the young people usually need the most is cash. Instead of the list of gifts which the newspapers sometimes print we should read. "The collection yielded $4,000,- 000." That would be nice. It is much easier to store and care for money than plate and glass! And money al- ways fits and there is no such thing as an embarrassing duplication of dollars. Life

Judoes' Wins.

The wig is only worn by English barristers to give them a stern, judi cial appearance, and no one can say that it fails in this respect. The GUS tom was originated by French judge in the seventeenth century when, hap pening to don a marquis wig one day, he found it gave him such stern and dignified appearance that he decided to get one for himself and wear it at all times in court. This he did, and the result was so satisfactory from a legal point of view that not only judges, but barristers also, took up the custom throughout Europe.-London Graphic.

Perfumes In Ancient Days.

Old as the history of the world itself is that of the queen of flowers. The ancient Greeks and Romans reveled in roses. They were used lavishly at their feasts. In the time of the republic the people had their cups of Falernian wine swimming with blooms, and the Spartan soldiers after the battle of Cirrha refused to drink any wine that was not perfumed with roses, while at the regatta of Baiae the whole surface of the Lucrine lake was strewn with flowers

Diamonds Under Water.

An imitation diamond is never sc brilliant as genuine stone. If your eye is not experienced enough to de. tect the difference, very simple test is to place the stone under water. The imitation stone is practically extin- guished, while 8 genuine diamond sparkles even under water and is dis tinctly visible. When possible, place a genuine stone beside the possible imi- tation under water, and the contrast will be apparent to the least expert enced eyes.

Makinq a Lawn.

On his English tour an American was admiring the velvety smoothness of a certain sward and, being pos sessed of land and an overpowering confidence that with money all things are possible, he asked the head gar dener how to produce such a lawn.

the depot. The intense interest of
the ranchers was shown at both

IMPOSING PARADE
Of VETERANS
Grand Army of the Republic
in Encampment at
Atlantic City.

Atlantic City, NJ j., Sept 21.-
Thousands of spectators lined the
principal thoroughfares of Atlantic
City today and cheered the veterans
of Gettysburg, Antietam. the Will
derness, Vicksburg and Appomattox
as they marched in the annual par
ade of the Grand Army national en-
campment With bands playing and
flags flying the old soldiers made a
brave showing and displayed much
enthusiasm But the line of march
was shorter and the number OF par
aders noticeably less than in years
gone by, and altogether there was
something pathetic in the thinned
out ranks of the veterans which
touched the hearts of all who saw
them.
Promptly at 10 O'Clock this morn
ing the signal to start was fired by
Battery A, Sons of Veterans Reserve,
Division of New Jersey. The start
was made from the intersection of
North Carolina avenue and Pacific
avenue. the line moving thence
through Rhode Island avenue. Ohio
avenue, Atlantic avenue and other
leading streets to Tennessee avenue,
where the column was dismissed.
Chief Marshal Sllas H. fowler and
his staff led the column. Comman-
der-in-C Chief Van SAINT and his escort
were next in line. The ffty-four
departments of the Grand Army fol-
lowed. with the Department of II
linois in the van. The Department
of New Jersey, the encampment host,
brought up the rear. Governor Fort
and other notables, including the
national officers of the Sons of Vet
Grams and other organizations affili-
ated with the G. A. R., reviewed the
procession from a stand erected in
Park Place.
Throughout the parade was strict
ly military, no women, children or
grotesque costumes being permitted
in the column. A hearty reception
was extended to the veterans all
along the route, each of the repart-
ments being cheered as it filed past.
The demonstration was one of great
enthusiasm, old and young turning
out to greet the fast-fading ranks.
