"NEAR-BEER' THAT is
THE REAL THING

Commissioner of Agriculture E. j.
Watson has received from Sheriff Bu-
ford, of Newberry county, samples of
certain beverage that is being sold
in that county under the caption near
ibeer," but which the officer believes is
near enough to count as the real ar
ticle; at any rate, its effects on those
who imbibe would seem to belle the
title. Sheriff Buford wishes the COM
Imission to have an analysis of the
beverage made with a view to deter
mining just exactly what constituents
enter into it's composition and wheth-
er or not it is being sold in violation
of the law. An analysis will be made
this morning and a report made to the
Isheriff.
Under the pure food and drug act
Commissioner Watson is required to
make this analysis and if it should re-
veal the presence of hurtful ingredi-
ents other than alcohol, or if the label
is not correct, the department of agri-
culture shall conduct the prosecution.
If the percentage of alcohol present is
greater than that allowed by law, the
sheriff shall prosecute the offenders.
The vendors of this drink have been
unusually active in Newberry county
and it is generally believed there that
it differs but slightly, if at all, from
the pure malt beverage.-The State.

Mr.. J. T. Lawson, who attempted to
open his near-beer saloon in Newber-
ry and who decided to close rather
than pay the license imposed by the
city, moved last week just beyond the
city limits, On the road leading to Mr..
S. P. Crotwell and opened in the store
lately occupied by Mr.. Ruff. 1t is un-
derstood that he did very good busi-
ness and sold several barrels of beer
on Saturday. His place was closed on
Monday, possibly because the supply
had given out.
Sheriff Buford is awaiting the re-
ply from Commissioner Watson as to
the contents of the stuff that is being
sold. The injunction, which was to
have been heard before Judge Gary
on Monday, at Laurens, has been post
poned until Friday of this week.

GOLF SHOTS
AT RECENT TOURNEY

There were several odd strokes
made during the recent golf tourna-
ment at Apawamis. In the qualifying
round it fell to Findlay Douglas to
make one the like of which is seldom
seen. To be bunkered from the tee,
take two strokes in the sand and yet
hole out in 3 is what this player ac-
complished at the twelfth. Still more
remarkable than the holing from tne
bunker was the fact that in its pas
sage to the cup the ball did not touch
the turf. How it stayed in the hole
after it hit was a mystery to Duglas,
to Charlie" Seely, who was his part
ner, and to the caddie, who had the
good sense to extract the flag pin
when he saw the ball approaching the
disc.
To find three players holing APP
proach shots in one tournament is
somewhat unusual. Marshall Whit
latch holed from the rough at the
while Kirkby played the
decisive shot in his final match
against Seely in this fashion.
AS far as memory serves 1t is the
only case on record where an import
ant firal has been so finished, al
though in the second round of the ma
tional championship at Baltusrof. in
1904, George Ormiston, of Pittsburg,
holed out cleek shot on the seven.

JOHNSON LIKELY

Word comes from New York via the

in spite OF the edict which went forth
some months ago from the cars of
boxing in the Empire State. that the
black champion would never don a
glove in Gotham so long as the COM

the game.
II is intfmated that one. of the boxing
commissioners who was violently OPP

SON.
Palzer or Jeanette.
There are two opponents in sight for
the chamRion. One is Joe Jeanette and
the other AL Palzer, and it remains
to be seen which of them will secure
the match According to some OF the
Eastern fight handlers Jeanette is the
man better entitled to face Johnson,
while others think Paizer. the white
hope. would be more popular choice
with fight fans generally.
The bout, If 1t takes place, will be
a ten-round affair, and such being the
case the champion will probably cut
loose in a; more determined manner
than he did at Las Vegas In the af-
fair with Flynn Johnson injured. no
doubt. on the possibility of having to
go long route and being leary Of the
effects the altitude might produce was
ultra cautious. In New York he would
know that just forty minutes Of box
ing and resting would be required,
even if the match went the limit, and
could rate himself accordingly.
Might Not Fight on Defensive.
It does not follow, therefore. by any
means, that because the champion
fought largely on the defensive in New
Mexico he will do the same in New
York Another thing, the New York
boxing rules call for clean breaks. This
means that Johnson will be able to
employ all his knowledge of stand
away boxing and feel assured that no
roughing at close quarters will be

is none too rosy for Johnson's New
