LawAs Applies to Obstructing
Public Highways.
We have been requested to publish
, the law as applies to road obstruction
in this State. Following is the law:
Section 453 of the revised statutes
says: 4'If any person shall wilfully
destroy, injure or in any manner hurt,
damage, impair or obstruct any of the
nnKlin V>ir?Vitttottu at. nmr riorf. t.Vioronf

convictton thereof be imprisoned not
2 more than six months or pay a fine
m not exceeding five hundred dollars, or
i both, at the discretion of the Court,
and shall be further liable to pay all
expenses of repairing the same."
The supreme court of this State in
the case of State vs. Sarter, 2 Strob.,
60, held:
"A road which has been in general
use by all persons, for public purposes,
for an uninterrupted period of
20 years or more, is a highway, for
obstructing which an indictment will
lie." ,

"Want Mills to Shut Down.
At a meeting of the executive committee
of the North Carolina Cotton
Manufacturers held in Charlotte, on
Saturday it was recommended that
the mills embraced in the association
as well as other southern mills shut
down for sixty days. The decision
was reached after a thorough discussion
of existing conditions in the
southern states and aceute depression
in the price of yarns. Strong resolutions
to this end were unanimously
adopted. The meeting, which was
presided over by R. M. Miller, Jr.,
ex-officio chairman of the committee,
was enthusiastic and representative.
The meeting of the Southern Cotton
Spinners' association called to consider
the matter of curtailment will
assemble in Charlotte April 17, and it
is expected that the southern mills
will taii in line wun tne mius or jNortn
Carolina.
Letter to G-. A. Derrick,
Lexington, S. C.
Dear Sir: The wear of paint goes
by gallons; the less-gallons paint
wears longest. The reason, of course,
is its strength. It takes less gallons,
because it is strong; it wears a long
time, because it is strong. It is allpaint
and the strongest paint.
There is a best paint among allpaint
paints. Xo two are alike, of
course; no two cover alike or wear
alike. One is thin, another is thick;
one has too much lead, another too
much zinc, another is right. The
right is Devoe, so far as is yet known.
Perhaps somebody-else will lind out a
better paint than Devoe; then Devoe
will become a more-gallons paint,
a costlier paint, a weaker paint, a
less-durable paint, a less-economical
paint, a timid paint.
Bigger changes than that have
come over the world. Devoe has the
lead; why shouldn't we lose it to
somebodyelse?
Yours truly,
F. W. DEVOE & CO.
P. S. The Ifcaufmann Drug Co., sells

by the owner of a dog which
Day killed while it was, wonying a
sheep. The dog belonged to a man

and kicked and stamped him into insensibility,
causing his death.
VanMetre's.
While in Columbia last week the
editor of The Dispatch' visited the
furniture store and undertaking parlors
of VanMetre. It is more than
worth the while to go through these
handsome apartments. The undertaking
parlors are, perhaps, the finest
in the State. In a very short time
these parlors can be turned into a hall
for the purpose of holding funerals,
and when you go to Columbia visit
' VanMetre's, whether you want to buy
or not.
