AN IMMENSE AUDIENCE
The Darkey Wedding Drew More
than Four Hundred People
TO the Court House.

A very amusing play was pulled OFF
in the court auditorium Monday even
ing-"The Darkey Wedding" There
were about twenty-five or thirty char
acters, represented by local talent,
and there was some splendid acting.
The darkey dialect was so familiarly
spoken that had an old time colored
person entered the building he would
have thought he was listening to
some Of the elite of his own people.
All the players appeared in black faces
and there were many unique costumes
We have not the space to particular
ize, but suffice it to say that each one
did his and her part to perfection, and
the large audience was kept in
an uproar from start to finish.
1t will not detract from the other
actors to say that Mr.. Leon Lewis and
Miss Mary Lucy Lowe were the con-
tracing parties and that Mr.. Paul
Hughes played the part of the old
time darkey minister. The tango was
danced to perfection by little Willard
Browning and his sister, Frances.
The songs that were sung long ago
were epeated-voices full of melody
which delighted the many hearers.
The orchestra was composed of Mr..
and Mrs. Geo. w. Lowe and Mr.. Wal
ter Sullivan and it goes without say
ing delightful music was rendered.
If we were to write column we could
not say more than this: Every body
was delighted and those who took
part are assured that Columbia is in
debted to them and the promoter,
Prof. W. NJ. Wilson, for furnishing
this place with al evening of amuse-
ment.

Defines Powers Of County Judge.

The act of 1914, giving County
Judges jurisdiction to try all miSde-
meanor cases is causing the County
Courts great concern over technical
tiles involved, and writs of Habeas
corpus are being asked for in numer-
Gus instances.
Assistant Attorney General NJ. M.
Logan, replying to the inquiry of Hen
ry Jackson of Danville gave it as his
opinion that County Judges have jur-
iSdiction over misde meanorS commit
ted before the act went into effect;
that in Common law offenses the
County Judge has Jurisdiction when
the offender has been indicted and is
in Jail in default of bail, and in such
cases his Jurisdiction is unlimited. In
statutory misdemeanors the offender
may be prosecuted by warrant and the
extent of the punishment that he
may infict is limited only by statute.
Mr.. Logan calls attention to the
possible unconstitutionality of the act,
which excerpts counties having Circuit
Courts of continuous jurisdiction,
while the Constitution provides that
the jurisdiction of County Courts
shall be uniform throughout the State.
He declines, however, to express an
opinion, as it is matter for the
courts to determine
