Assistant Attorney General Gunter, at the request of Mr. Thomas G. White, magistrate for Beaufort county, has prepared the following opinion of some public interest in regard to the poll tax: Dear Sir: Your request to be advised whether a person liable to poll tax, but whose name does not appear on the County Treasurer's books, is liable to arrest for non-payment of poll tax: Section 492, of the Criminal Code of 1P02, imposes a penalty upon any person failing or refusing to pay bis poll tax, etc. Sec. 6 A, page 780, Act of 1901, makes clearly a like provision. It is, therefore a criminal action, imposing a penalty for non-payment of the poll tax Section 5-A defines a taxable poll as being all male persons between the ages of 21 to 60. It follows, therefore, that all persons falling within this definition are liable to poll tax, the non-payment of which subjects them to a penalty, whether their names appear on the tax books or not. The proceeding may be instigated by any person, just as any other criminal proceeding. (See Rodgers vs. Marlboro county, 32 South Carolina, 555). Out of Death's Jaws.

Hopkinsvilie, Ky.,?Lloyd Nelson Young, a white painter, recently crazed by drink, went to Pembroke and got on a rampage last night after being put off a train that he had digged.

The boy who can use his eyes as sharply as did the hero of the following story, need not mind if his teacher callB him obtuse: "Do you know whether Washington was a soldier or a sailor," asked the teacher. "He was a soldier," replied the htv. J ' "How do you know?" " 'Cause I saw a picture of him crossin' the Delaware an' any sailor'd know enough not to stand up in his boat." There was a meeting of long sep- j a_ j i 11 6. in i vr:n araieu mumtuo au x ujlc jjxiuxcucuhj. They were Porter K.

Land cannot be too rich or too mellow for fruits. Manure for the garden should be free from weed seeds. The head of a tree needs to be fairly open to admit sun and air for full growth of fruit The dahlias will never disappoint you. Pink, white, yellow or crimson, tall, dwarf or cactus, it is bound to flower. In the fall after the leaves have dropped is generally the best time for taking cuttings from quinces, but they may be taken later. Heliotrope should not be mixed with other cut flowers in water. They decay quickly and have a harmful effect upon the other blossoms. *-?- " iv ?-/i~ ALyosotis ^lorgeiuueuui; uecu& paiuai shading, but not the shade of a tree. Plant among taller flowers or around rosebushes, and it "will do well. Plenty of yellow blossoms should be secured for places which lack sunshine. Yellow is good in almost every situation and is the cheeriest of tones. Good cultivation causes an abundance of fibrous roots to be made. The growth of any plant is largely measured by the number of its fibrous roots. Too Smart. He was one of those men who are constantly trying to beat down prices," said a bank cashier, "and had evidently been looking around for bargain prices for his bill of exchange. When he presented it to me and asked the rate, 1 replied, 'One-tenth of 1 per cent.' "'Now, look here,' he said. 'You are *V>;<vVi T Kara ^rvr>o hnsinpss in this LKJKJ UL1&JLft. A i*?.4.

If you don't do it for that, I'll take my account over there.' " 'All right,' I remarked. 'We will do it for the same rate, considering that you are an old customer.' "The bill of exchange cost him 60 cents more than it would had he kept quiet."?New York Times. He Learned a Great Truth. It is said of John Wesley that he once said Mistress Weslej: "Why do you tell that child the same thing over and over again?" "John Wesley, because once telliDg is not enough."

A Georgia justice recently married a runaway couple who drove up to his house and went through the ceremony without descending from the carriage.

Ef you've a mind to take it, you kin, but I'll say now that I done set it aside fer the honeymoon expenses." Her Opportunity.
