mace bearers brought up the rear.

Fake Insurance Companies.

Some time ago some wild cat'
insurance companies were organized
in Spartanburg and agents were sent
out throughout the State writing the
farmers insurance" the companies
being operated on the assessment
plan. Losses occurred but in many
cases the claims were never settled.
Many of the insurers paid up later
and thought they were done with the
company, but recently an agent has
been in this section serving the papers
in cases against the insurers, these
cases being brought by the company
or the receivers, we are not Informed
which, for money which they claim
is still due the company. We are
afraid many will let the time for
answering go by and thus have judg-
ment entered up against them by de-
fault, but many of the more prudent
ones are going to meet at the court
house in this city next Monday, the
oath instant, and employ attorneys
to fight these suits to the end. We
hope that all of our people who are
being sued by the company will re-
sist payment to the fullest.

I'm my condemnation Of this Amer

was as ludicrously mistaken as the
woman in the third-class smoker.
AT Banbury half-dozen young
Methodist ministers once boarded a
third-class smoker wherein sat
frowsy woman smelling of beer. The
young ministers had been attending
ministerial conference. In their
black garb they conversed gravely
on conference affairs, while the frow-
sy woman nodded in her corner.
LAS the train approached the long
tunnel the woman reused herself. She
pinned back lazily a tail of her hair
that had fallen on her shoulder and
she fixed her CLASSY eyes on the six
pale, black-clad divines. Then she
took from her basket huge bread
knife.
Making few unsteady flourishes
and lunges in the air with the knife,
she said, fiercely:

Columbia, January 17.-That the
Atlantic Coast Line Railway is oper-

Railway, against the railroad COM
missioners of South Carolina and
others, the Atlantic Coast Line Rail-
road Company, was made party de-

plant, it denies that it Is incorpor-
ated in any other State than the
State of Virginia This is, in effect,
an allegation of the Atlantic Coast
Line Railroad Company, that it is
chartered under the laws of Virginia
This being the case, it is doing busi-
ness in South Carolina in violation Of
Section 9, Article 8, of the Constitu-
tion of this State, which expressly
forbids a foreign corporation from
owning or operating lines Of railway
in this State. In the case of the
Carolina, Clinchfield and Ohio Rail-
way, against McCown, as Secretary of
State, the Supreme Court has inter-
preted this provision of the Constitu-
ton, and it is my opinion that the At
lantic Coast Line Railroad Company
is violating this section of the Con-
stitution, as construed by the Su-
preme Court. deem that it Is my
duty to call this matter to the atten-
ticl of your honorable body, in order
that you may take such action in
regard thereto as you may deem
