In connection with Granville Bar

1t is interesting to recall that we have
still standing in London one OF the
halls In which the play was performed
during Shakespeare's lifetime. In the
hall of the Middle Temple, opened by
Queen Elizabeth In person In 1876,
Twelfth Night" was acted at Christ
mas, 1901, and there is a strong prob
ability that Shakespeare himself play
ed % part in that performance. In
the sally days the Inns OF court we're
patrons of the drama, and the hall OF
Grays Inn can also claim to have
witnessed a contemporary Shakes
peare production, "A Comedy of Err

Old Proverbs About Apples.

No fruit has played a more impor'
tant part In sacred O. profane history
than the apple. Of which Solomon
made good use in his proverbs, "stol.
en- apples are sweet" and a word fifty
spoken is like apples of gold in pic.
lures Of silver"
A good many English doctors pre-.
scribe an apple for either the first or
last meal. The Dutch equivalent for
our two birds with one stone" is
two apples with one stick" and the
origin In the saying. "A windy year,
an apple year." dates back to the days
of the Norman.

KILLS BALD EAGLE.
From the Alpharetta Free Press:

From the Alpharetta Free Press:
Mr.. John Rucker, father of Nap
Rucker, the ball pitcher, last Mon
day afternoon killed a ball eagle
near his home three miles west of
Alpharetta.
The eagle was seen on a tree near
his home, and uncle John reached
for Maps favorite gun and brought
it down the first shot. 1t measured
six feet from tip to tip of it's wings.
1t was sent to Roswell, where Char
ley Hembree will stuff it.
The bald eagle is represented in
the coat of arms and on the coins of
the United States. 1t is called a
bald eagle because it's head feathers
are white, giving it the appearance
of being bald.

THE PEOPLE KNOW
 WHAT THEY WANT
Explanation of the Big Curio Store s
 Ostrich Feather Sale.

It all comes of the people knowing two things. One is that Balkes Big Curio store is selling Arizona ostrich feathers cheaper than they can be bought elsewhere and that the Arizona plumes are the best in the world. That information was first made known to the people Of this city and community but by this time it has spread all over the country so that the mail order business of the Big CuriO store in os- trich plumes has become an important fea tura of the trade.
 Orders come from such cities as San Francisco and Los Angeles, though the latter is widely advertised as head quarters for ostrich plumes.

The letter itself was a harmless mis- sive. only breathing of the devotion of the writer and his purpose to comfort their mother who was Wor- rying great deal about them. No action regarding the letter has yet been taken.

FIGHT ON TWO-CENT RATE.
Joint Committee Against Proposed
Law.

Columbia, Jan. 31.--At a ioint
meeting Of the Senate and House rail-
road committees today, to hear argu-
ment on the several two-cent rate
roads were present to protest against
the proposed change and the inoppor-
tunities of the legislation. Argu-
ments were made by Mr.. S. III. Hard
wick, passenger traffic manager, and
Col. b. l.. Abney, division counsel
for the Southern Railway; w. j. Craig,
passenger manager, Atlantic Coast
Line; 7. a. Wilcox, general counsel; !;
~ w. Anderson and T.. Barron Grler,
for the Charleston and Western Caro-
lima; John B. Lyles and Mr.. Tompkins
for the Seaboard; for the South Caro-
lima Western, Dan r. McKeithan and
George Dargan; Robert McDouGah.
representing the labor side, being :,
representative of the railroad eng
neers, was present and made a vigDr-
Gus protest against the bills. Mr.. Nc
Dougall was accompanied by engineers
from the various railroad systems or
the State.
Railroad Commissioner Richards
who favors the legislation, was pres
cnt and advocated the two-ccnt rate.
The railroad committee was unable
to conclude the hearing today and
the House committee Will .Hcct Wed
nesday afternoon at 1 o'clock 10 take
the matter under consideration.
The roads claimed that they could
not stand the reduction in rates and
that they would certainly have to stop
their improvements of roads and ser
vice.
Some claimed that such legislation
would be contisCatory and that lro-
posed extensions would certainly have
to be stopped. The Intcrurban Street
hallway Company also objected TO the
reduced rate.

lawlessness, and that it was unbe-
coming for members to make that
accusation. The fact of the matter,
however, Is that the dispensary law is
not now and has not been, within his
recollection, enforced and that he
and most Of the people Of Charleston
are in favor Of the change to the IL
cense system, because it will result in
improved conditions and regard for
the law. He was not yet prepared to
advocate the return to the barroom
system, and that was not now the
question, so far as he was concerned.
The man that he was after was the
man who said ito hell with the law"
Charleston, he believed, could and
would enforce a properly restricted IL
cense system, and he believed ii
would lead to the lessening Of the con-
sumption Of liquor because it would
confine the sale Of liquor to the orig
inal package and the closing Of the
establishments at sundown. In his
opinion this proposition was the only
way to stop the illegal sale OF liquor
In Charleston. On the original motion
to recommit the bill the House voted
SO to Sc, which was a refusal to re-
commit. Mr.. Irby then moved to re-
fuse to let the bill pass to it's third
reading. The House, however main
tanned it's original position and by q
vote Of 60 to SO the bill was ordered
over to the Senate, where it will
considered next week. Practically the
entire vote Of the Assembly was cast
as a number Of pairs were announc-
ed.
