take her summer trip. A real nice young man, formerly of this city, but now living in the Piedmont section of South Carolina, gave the order to a peach grower of this city to be shipped by express as soon as possible. Said peach grower expected to go down to the farm iu a day or two and fill the order. He remarked to the writer that he had the order. In 6. dav or ^ two, The News arrived, we saw in its columns the announcement that the aforesaid young lady had already taken her departure from Lancaster, we showed the item to the peach grower and the order was never filled. The city authorities have had the blind tigers on the run since the first of the year when prohibition went into effect. After the state law was passed the city also passed a law prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors. A very determined kind of Jew, who has made "stacks'1 of money out of the whiskey business, de termined not to let a little thing like a state law or a city law prevent him from coining ca9h out of a legitimate( ?) business, so in connection with his up to (late restaurant, he ha<l an upstairs apartment, where he dispensed the same kinds of drinks lie forI merly sold at his saloon, regardless of the law. The city detectives were not asle.-p, however, and bringing together a band ot policemen, they made a raid on the "upstairs place", found a large quantity of all kinds ol drinks, which they seized, and arrested the smart Jew. He was tried and convicted of keeping liquor in his place of business, which is against the prohibition law, and sentenced to a heavy fine and imprisonment in the county jail. Later on, the suspicionsof tin city detectives were aroused as to the illegal sa'e of liquors by a "very determined kind of Irishman", a raid was made on his place,which was a solt drink establishment and "sleep ing apartments" upstairs. They found the proprietor, his "assistant" and about 20 "guests" or customers upstairr. Some ol them were drinking, some were playing cards, and some were stretched out on the floor, drunk as "biled owls". The liquors were seized, the entire crowd ar rested and locked up. This occurred on Saturday afternoon. On the following Monday the i - l- % . . insnman and Ilia assist ant were tried and convicted, as the others in the party were summoned as witnesses and testified against them. '1 hey were sentenced to pay heavy tines and servo in the county jail for a few months. Both of these tigers Hre endeavoring to get a new trial, but their chances for a reversal ol the decision made, even if they get a new trial, are very slim. Former Lancastrian.

The following admirable egsay i wa? read by Miss Callie Sowell, j a recent Winthrop graduite with! the degree of A B , at the Young j People's Union at the Baptist i church, Hnl is cheerfully pub liehed a* the request of the U ni?n: It does not take much contem plation to decide how to treat our friends, tor it is so natural to love those who love us. But how to treat our enemies is a question of more importance and harder to solve. This verso in Proverbs should help us: "If thy enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink." One of the strongest evidences that a man has been bom again is a uispusicion 10 lorgive Ins ene mies, for such a feeling is Christlike. Any common sinner can forgive a friend, but it takes a consecrated person to forgive those whom he knows are his enemies. To harbor hatred toward those whom you do not like is not to pattern after Christ, for Lie freely forgave those who sought to injure Him. The gift to forgive your enemies is not a suddenly acquired one, but is obtained after much prayer and meditation. The best Christians are those who have practiced constant training and have crucified the flesh. Such Christians have command of their tempers and can smile when Satan rages. They live in the sunsbinp r.t God's love, and are a comfort to themselves and others. A Christian should improve every day; in other words, should daily grow in grace. When a Chrislian thinks he has reached perfection, that is the time when a little very serious contemplation will do him good. To love our frieuds who have been kind to us is human, but to love our enemies is divine. The crowning beauty ol Christ is that while we were yet disobedient to Him and would not have iJim to reign over us He loved us. Of course it is hard to love some uneon- 1 genial people, but if every one did unto others as he wished to be done by, there would be no disagreement. So let us begin at once with this as our motto and see if it will not be contagious. It is always proper to pray for our relativ*. s and friends; but Clod would receive with pleasure the words ''also our enemies " Sometime our supposed enemies are more bene ticial to us than are our supposed fiiends and consequently have a claim upon our prayers. To a considerable extent we are olten our o.. n enemies, and therefore should be careful about how we ! teel like punishing our enemies. One of the beat ways to turn our enemies into friends is to show them marked attention. That is what is meant by the words in Proverbs: "For thou shall heap coals of fire upon his head, and the Lord shall reward thee." Let us all strive to have as tew enemies as possible, for it does not pay to bo on bad terms with others. There is enough trouble in this world without going about looking for trouble We should strive for more friends ?I1U lewor enemies. H 18 H KOO(l day to you when you turn an I MCASTER NEWS.

The only enemy that we ought not to make peace with is the Devil, for he goes about like a roaring lion, seeking whom be may devour. The best triend you have is Jesus. Cultivate His acquaintance and stulv all the time to please Him. It pays to have the friendship 01 Christ and the companionship ot good people.
