Judge Priichard Deoides
Against Attorney General.
Asheville, N. C., Feb. 26.?Deciding
that his court would take jurisdiction
and inquire into the merits of the
claims of many liquor houses against
the South Carolina dispensary board,
and continuing until Saturday argument
on'the question of appointing a
receiver for the $800,000 fund left by
the late dispensary, and now in the
hands of a State commission, or (the
State, Judge Pritchard today rendered
an opinion which lays down a broad
principle of importance and wide scope.
The opinion of the judge appears
to decide, that when a State engages
in the whiskey business or other bus
mess not; necessary^ to preserve its
autonomy or sovereignty it waives its
rights under the 11th amendment to
the constitution of the United States
not to be sued without its consent,
and he further decides that it would
beam just to permit the State under
any circumstances to avoid the payments
of debts contracted for goods
on which it has made a profit. A decision
so broad in <=huneiaticn of principles
seemed haidly to have be^n expected
by counsel in the case, and it
taill carry to tne supreme court an
issue which may serve to decide once
for all the rightB of the States under
the constitution.

Letter to Samp. N. Saminer.
Lexington, S. C.
Dear Sir: Ten years ago, there
was one pure paint and 200 adulterated;
there are now eight pure, 200
adulterated, about half of the latter
short-measure besides.
There is still but one best, and the
difference is ten gallons Devoe goes
as; far as, eleven next-best??5?in
every ten gallons. ' ' \
A new word has come-up in paint;
it is strong. Strong paint goes further
and wears longer; weak paint takes
more gallons and wears out sooner.
The proper cost of a 10-gallon job is
$50. Paint that takes 11 gallons makes
it $55. Paint that takes 12 gallons
makes it $6C. . Paint that take9 13
gallons makes It $65. Paint that takes
20 gallons makes it $100.
The $50 job wears twice as long as
the $100. These figures'are not precise;
they are round. The 10-gallon
paint is l^evoe.
Yours truly,
F. W. DEVOE & CO.
P. S. The Kaufmann Drug Co. , sells
our paint.

Six~Jffontlis fdr Bond Thief.
Mr. T. J. Gibson, the aged bond
broker, of Columbia, who was one
year ago convicted of conspiracy in
connection with the theft of the bonds
from the State treasurer's office, and
a sealed Sentence left for him by
Judge Prince, today, for the first time
appeared in court and the sentence
was ppened. It was six months in
the penitentiary without hard labor.
An appeal was entered and the ^pntence
is stayed.
Mr. Gibson gave bond in the sum of
$42,000. When Gibson was tried one
year ago his attorney was Mr. Andrew
Crawford. Judge Crawford put
up a magnificent fight for the old
man, who, he said, might not live
until the next term o* court. Whep
the court ended Gibson was too ill to
appear to receive sentence. Since
that time Mr. Crawford has himself
passed away, but Gibson, still feeble,
is alive.
