The present session of the Legislature of South Carolina has entered [ upon the third week of its eiistence and in that time only preliminary work has been accomplished. Bills have been put in shape to be introduced, vacancies in offices have been filled and the members have thrown out their skirmish lines preparatory to the battle of words in defense of their pet measures. If we have Dot before stated that Hon. John C. Sheppard, of Edgefield, was re-elected President pro tem of the Senate, we do so now, and that he presided over the deliberations of that body from the time of the arrest of Lieutenant Governor James H. TillmaD, until the swearing in of the new Lieutenant Governor last Wednesday. Our report ended with the proceedings of Tuesday of last week. On Wednesday Governor elect, D. Clinch Heyward, of Collecton, and Lieutenant Governor elect, John T. Sloan, of Richland, took the oath of office and entered upon the active I ' -"-I 1 A* - f 11 ? j discharge or tne auueB 01 tneir respective offices. Tbe election of these two Carolinians, to these two highest State office, both having been align with that element in State politics known as ''Conservatives,'1 is an evidence that the bitterness of the great political revolution of 1890 has spent its force and that while principles and measures to which that revolution gave birth are yet active factors in State politics, they have been accepted in good faith by both factions ?.nd the new century witnessed a practically re-united Democracy in South Carolina. The inaugural address of Governor Heyward dealt with ail the leading questions now agitating the public mind?3ducation, the dispensary, child labor in cotton mills, taxation, the industial interests of the State? all received thoughtful attention and were discussed in a spirit of patriotism and from the high grounds of a broad minded and libera! statesman. His inauguration witnessed a new epoch in our history and he starts his public life with the prayers of all classes of the people of the State for a successful and brilliant administration. With thft exoRnfcinn of holdiDf* memorial services in memory of the late General Wade Hampton nothing was done by either branch of the General Assembly until Monday, when sis bills were read the third time and ordered sent to the Senate. Two of them had reference to local affairs in Charleston county; two to Saluda affairs; one was a bill relating to the qualification of the County Superintendents of Education and the remaining one to amend Section *298 of the Criminal Code of 1902. Many new bills were introduced and referred to appropriate commiti The bills which were discussed ! at length were: The bill providing for ten year convicts to serve sentences on the public works of thb county. The House refused to kill the bill and it was passed to its third reading. The bill to secure throughout the United States a unii fnrm plaauifiori ftfiSPflSmPnt nf livfl stock. This bill was passed and it simply provides that taxpayers in making their returns should give exact information as to grade of stock, etc. The bill to take the dispensary profits for cities and towns and place it to the credit of the school fund, and beiDg discussed at length, was made the special order for today. The bill to prevent the sale of fish killed with dynamite and to prohibit the sale of dynamite for killing fish passed. Other business was transacted and the House adjourned. In the Senate various new measures were introduced, bills made special orders and routine business a .1 j . k n a_ . d! n transacted, ana me senate aajournea. As most of this legislation will come up again for final action we pass it by for the present. Tuesday both branches of the General Assembly met in joint session and ratified the result of the primary election last summer by electing Hon. A- C. Latimer United States Senator, to succeed Hon. John r ic t ju. McijauriQ. An election for Associate Justice of the Supreme Court to succeed Judge Y. J. Pope, recently promoted to be Chief Justice, was then announced with the following candi dates: C A. Woods, of Marion; J. L. Tribble, of Anderson; James F. Izlar, of Orangeburg; J. F. J. Caldwell, of Greenwood; Robert Aldrich, of Barnwell and ex-Senator Gruber, of Colleton. Three ballots were taken when the joint assembly adjourned without making a choice, being: Woods, 71; Gruber, 14; Tribble, 17; Izlar, 6; Caldwell, 13; AldricO, 66.

The monotony of our usually quiet neighborhood was broken by the sweet sound of wedding belle; which floated out on the crisp and frosty air on the evening of December 25. 1902, when Miss Carrie Franck and Mr. Wm. Wolfe were united in the bonds of holy wedlock, by Rev. Mr. Byrd, of the M. E. Church South. The bride is the lovely daughter of Mr. H. C. and Mrs. Narcissa Sondley Franck aod was one of the belles of Bakersville. The groom is the youngest son of Mr. J. F. Wolfe, a deceased veteran of tbe "Lost Cause," and is one of the most successful aod energetic young farmers of Sandy Run. The attendants were: Miss Mary Sfcrock, of Cameron, with Mr. Carl Frost Davis; Miss Mary Reese, of Congaree, with Mr. Cleveland Rucker, of Orangeburg; Miss Carrie Frick, of Eliorep, with Mr. Hampton Wolfe; Miss Caro Davis, of Bakersville, with Mr. Calhoun Geiger. Miss Emily Wolfe, of Sandy Run, a sister of the groom, was Maid of Honor, and Mr. James Guignard Franck, brother of the bride, was Best Man. The bride was handsomely gowned in a combination of white satin, brilliantine and applique; a tulle veil and orange blossoms completed this lovely costume. The bride's maids were becomingly attired in white French organdie, elaborately trimmed in lane and ribbon. Thev car ried bouquets. The guests were the immediate families and nearest relations of the bride and groom. The drawing room, parlors and dinning hall were handsomely and appropriately decorated and while the holly lent its coral and the mistletoe its pearls, the star like light from waxen tapers, shed a soft radiance over the whole and the stately old ante bellum mansion presented a scene of beauty. After a sumptuous wedding feast was served the devotees of Terpsiz.linro "finned fhe liohf fanfcAsfin tne' x-"v-" ~ "rr? --r>? 'till the "wee sma' hours." The bride was the recipient of many valuable and useful presents. After the return from the bridal tour Mr. and Mrs. Wolfe will be at home in their own establishment. As they glide down the stream of life, may the sky above them be bright with sunshine, the way be strewn with thornlesa flowers. "And may the bridal vow be faithful kept in after years, and fondly breathed as now." One Present. WANT OF PER SHOES HEN SELLS THE BEST LOWEST PRICES. iKEVING DAILY! c SOLD WITH A LTfm.m A m * A.
