vention at Olar before reaching

The Sunday-school convention was
most Hospitality entertained by the
good people of Olar. The attend
ance was good considering the
weather. The program was hamper
ed by the absence Of so many who
were appointed to speak on the va
rious topics, but lot Of good things
were said. The address by Miss
Clara Johnson, of Elko, on the bene-
fit of the teachers training course
was one of the best things of the
convention. The convention did a
wise thing in electing her as super
visor of teacher training In its
bounds.

close. Let us betake ourselves to

Mayors Court.

Some interest was Created ldSI
Thursday morning when Chief of Po-
lice S. A. Hand, assisted by Night
Policeman H. W. Moody and Magis-
trate's Constable j. W. McCue, vis-
tied three stores on Main street
where a search was made for intox-
icants. The places visited were the
restaurant of John Cameras, the
grocery and fruit store Of S. Yei-
trakis, and the store and market OF
H. w. Beard. The raids were made
on warrants issued by Mayor Smoak.
At the restaurant of Cameras sew
eral dozen bottles of Belle Of Geor-
gia beer were found, it being hidden
under the floor, a hole being sawed
out for this purpose. Some Beer
inc" was seized at the store Of Yei-
trakis, and at Boards about a half
barrel of bottles with no label on
them. This beverage Mr.. Beard
claimed was not intoxicating, having
no alcohol in it, and it was not un-
lawful to sell it. The bottles were
stored in his meat refrigerator.
Cameras plead guilty to selling in
toxicants and was fined 500, the
trial taking place the same day.
Cameras paid his fine.
Yeitrakis desired to plead guilty,
but Mayor Smoak postponed his
case, as Yeitrakis did not have any
money to pay his fine and he gave
him a few days respite in order to
raise the money. He was therefore
released on bond of 5000, DR.. Geo.
F. Hairsgoing on the bond.
The trial of Mr.. Beard was post
poned as well, as he claimed that the
beverage he sold was not an illegal
drink. We understand that the city
authorities will have some Of 1t
analyzed. However, we are inform
ed by Chief Hand that the cases
against Beard do not rest on the
seizure. There are two or more
cases against him and his clerk, and
Mr.. Boards bond was fixed at 5000
and that of his clerk at 5000, Capt.
A. P. Miller being the bondsman.
When these cases will be tried is
not known.
Saturday afternoon white man
named Ambrose Williams hit a ne
gro named Mcclellan in the head
with an axe handle and inflicted pain
full wounds. The affair happened on
the main business street, and was
the continuation of a difficulty which
had started out on the new railroad.
It seems that the two were watering
their mules and the negro pushed
Mr.. Williams away from the pump
and struck him on the arm with a
metal bucket, skinning his arm, and
also cursed him vilely. So when Mr..
Williams saw him on the street Sat-
| urday afternoon he let him have the
axe handle with full force, striking
him several severe blows, knocking
two holes in his head and giving him
a wound on the neck. Mr.. Williams
was arrested and is now out on bond
of $40, the case not having been
tried so far. The negro was badly
hurt, but is out again and getting
along all right. He is a Sumter ne
gro and is said to be an impudent
| fellow.
Tom Graves, negro who lives on
Mr.. Jno. H. Cope's plantation near
Cope, was tried Tuesday by Mayor
Smoak on the charge of selling liquor
on August 26th. The mayor re-
served his decision.
