S. Brown disappeared last tl Wednesday and there is absolutely s! r?n f ro/in r?f if annshcrc Th a mnnov j UU V&eiVV VA *v WMJ r -- J A j has now beeo paid to the State and tl the story cf its disappearance is odo c! of the most peculiar ever heard of by the dispensary officials. ^ It seems that Inspector Brown J t was sent to Cbaileston on business 6 " connected with bis duties and while . there checked up the books of Dispenser B. H. Matthews. He found . that there was a shortage of Si,600 - Jr . and an order for the payment was at [ once made. Matthews paid Brown ^ i in C8sh and on Brown's arrival in Columbia he reported to CommisI sioner Tatum that the money had absolutely disappeared. Brown 6ays D that he was not intoxicated, but that J in some way he was robbed. JuBt ' how, he does not know. r He does know that he received the money from Matthews and the latter has a receipt to show that the short | age was made good. There was naturally a discussion as to bow the money should be made up, and the law right there is very defective as to collection on an inspector's bond. Finally, however, gi the amount was raised for the com- re , missioner, who insisted that the m State should not lose. Inspector tb Brown has been temporarily bus- tb pended and is now endeavoring to fo trace the money. * hs If the Baby is Cutting Teeth, n< Be sure and use that old and well cc tried remedy, Mrs. Winslow's Sooth- co ing Syrup, for children teething.

X_ a^ fioxerrea to zweierew. The Pickens dispensary case is hang ap until testimony can be taken. This morning Chief Justice Pope, in '*1 Newberry, after hearing arguments wi in the mandamus case, issued an fu order to the effect that as the case Af involved constitutional points which cu should be considered by the whole Sa supreme court instead of one member an of that body the case was referred to Dj A. J. Boggs, as special referee, to take testimonj and report the same with conclusions on or before the " ~ mi second Tuesday in Septemoer. ? This means that unless the board dil of directors decide to reopen the dis- Oc pensary there that the county of po Pickens will be dry until the case is Di decided. The writ of mandamus was thi brought by certain parties of Pickens po through W. Boyd Evans as attorney erf to compel the county board to order va the dispensary reopened on the T1 grounds that the election was illegal, sp When the case was brought the p.

The members f the state board could not be eacbed, but it was the opinion of Jose who had studied the matter bat the dispensary would have to lay closed as many of the points aised were those of fact and that as be dispensary had already been losed it would have to Btay closed.

Washington, July 7.?The investiition into the "leak" as to cotton ports of the agricultural departent has reached the stage where le truth of the charges made by ie Southern Cotton Association are und to be true. The secret service detectives who ive been workiog on tbe case lor jarly a month are said to have disivered indisputable evidence that a rrupt ring exists among the em- 1 oyes of the department from which ( rall street speculators have been >le to obtain a pretty close idea of e character of the cotton report i veral days in advance of its publi- < tion. Through their investigation aong brokerage concerns in New i irk and other large cities they have ! irned that certain government em- i oyes, closely connected with collec- i m and compilation of cotton statists, have been dealing in tbe cotton i arket. Even though an employe ] the department should not actually I ve out figures a large order from i m to brokers between tbe first and I ird of the month to buy or sell ' tton would be a sufficient hint to < a Vkfolror a a tn fhfi TifthlTA nf thfl 1 W Ik/i VAV* U U fcV w * ** ? rtbcoming report.

He must spend nine dollars in living expenses for every dollar saved. That being the case be cannot be too careful about unnecessary expenses. Very often a few cents properly invested, like buying seeds for his garden, will i save several dollars outlay later on. It is the same in buying Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea j Remedy. It costs but a few cents and a bottle of it in the bouse often saves a doctor's bill of several dollars.

Cotton is looking very well and is very full of fruit. Gardens are dried up, and we rre having some trouble in getting a stand of peas on account of the dry weather.

Well, you know, there must be some new issues 9prung to give the politicians something to go before the dear people with, or they could not get the voters out to vote. But I guess it is all right anyway, things have to make a cbaDge. It would not be well for everything to go right along in the same old rut. People would know two well how to calculate for the ruture. Mr. Editor, I don't think it will be long before we can say Hello to you ov?r our telephone line.
