NEGRO CHARGED WITH
 FIRST DEGREE MURDER

 Icuit court convened yesterday morning with Judge James s. Steele of Loks- Iburg presiding, on exchange of cir cults with Judge G. R. Haynie who is presiding instead of Judge Steele over the Little River circuit court at Ash down this week.
 Judge Steele's charge to the grand jury at the convening of the session yesterday was one of the most im- pressive ever delivered in the local court. He gave the jurors insturct- ions on all the larger offenses likely to come before them and in the course of his address, paid his respects with a stinging denounciation of the lawyer who lowers himself to the extent of wasting his time looking and working up petty, groundless cases, many times against innocent parties for the small fee he might perchance collect. He expressed himself as having no sym pathy for law violator who knowing ly disobeys the law and then comes up before the court and wants light sentence because he pleads guilty.
 The grand jury ordered warrant issued for the arrest of Collie Davis, negro, on charge of murder in the first degree. It is alleged in the in- dictment that Davis killed Doss Phillips, another negro, last summer rear Bodcaw.

Certain of the modern dances are

termed "a chapter of accidents" and

mistook the mirage for a reality but,
through support of Republican candi

country is turning again to realities.

as turning with admiring eyes to the
