Entering private residences for the purpoie of robbery 5s not a frequent occurrence in our quiet and usually orderly town, but a fang of thieves seem to have been on the town last Wednesday night. Mr. H. W. Gibson's place was entered through the kitcken on Wednesday night. The Diirgtars carried away an iue piuvi&ions tbat tbey could find, and left Mr. Gibson without enough for his breakfast on Thursday morning. From tbe kitchen tbey w?3i into the main part of ibe bouse, and ransacked a wardrobe, carrying off most of Mr. and Mrs. Gibson's clothes. The fact tbat dresses were stolen seems to contradict the theory that tramps did the robbery, and it te:ids to point to local thieves. Ou the same night Mr. P. Rion's pantry was entered, and a good supply of good thiDgs to eat were taken away. It is presumed that the same parties committed this burglary that entered Mr. Gibson's. It wac a bold robbery. Mr. Gibson had not retired, and says that he heard tbe noi*e but thought that it wa3 a cat or dog, and thought nothing of it. He tnmKs itwt it was aDout y o'ciock, dui it was uot until the next morning that he di*cove:#d that his home had been robbed. Several places have been eearched, but no clae haa been found.

Even those who can sincerely believe that the primaiy object of the dispensary Jaw is to lessen the liquor evil can not claim that the granting of special rights to hotels to sell liquor is consistent with it. The hotel dispensaries have been to all intents and purposes barrooms. Liquor has been nold in them at all heurs and praclically ia all quantities. It has been the custom tor drinkers to bay a pint or quart of liquor from one of these dispensaries, take a drink from it at the bar (for the dispensaries have the regulation bar fixtures), leave the bottle with the bar tender and return later and often at pleasure to finish the bottle. If the clsims lor the dispensary as a liquor reform are true, the hotel dispensaries controvert all those claims. The special privileges were originally provided for tourist hotels?hotels like the Highland Park at Aiken, patronized by wealthy people from other States to who wines and whiskeys -? ' - ??it were, according 10 ice aouui varuuua legislature, necessaries. Of the hotels, however, which have the privileges, most are not of this class. We hare in mind several which are not ?v?n first class hotels?houses which would be patronized by 9uch people as do not scruple to get drunk in public and make nuisances of themselves. The recent general assembly, with some regard for decent appearances and consistency, passed a concurrent ' resolution advising the State whiskey dealers or board of control to withdraw these special privileges. But the State whiskey dealers, with an eye to business, contemptuously rejected the advice, "receiving it as information." This action discloset clearly fcbe motire# of tho ^State board of control. The hotft dispensaries, as we have said, approximate af 1 closely a? possible to tlie old time hotel barrooms. They are very much . mnr* *inn tn ha.rrnnm? in their man ner of doing: business iban are th< original package 6hops. Bat, in :il probability, they yield a profit to th< 1 State. So tbey are maintained, to th( dir?st contradiction ot everything tba can be said to tbe advantage of tb< . dispensary system. It will at leas not be denied hereafter tba', the presen board of control has for its bighes aim making big tales of whiskey it ! South Carolina. Additionally, it i demonstrated that in the same degrei that the dispensary improves as i money maker, it ' d"? as a temperanci > promoter.? Ort-.^cille Newsr ' 3. ) _ !
