Charles G. Dantzler, of Orangeburg, presiding. Solicitor Timmerman, Stenographer Anderson and the other court * ? 4-Uai* ?\/\ofn tr UUIUlitlS WCIO au tucu p\;nun piuui^ri ij j Tbe new clerk of the court, the Hon. Frank W. Shealy, had everything in readiness and it was not long before the court go? "busy." During the last few days Mr. Shealy has had the interior of the court house neatly cleaned up and many additions made. Mr. Shealy ha9 had cushions made for the jurors chairs, which makes their sitting comfortable and easy. Mr. Shealymakes an ideal clerk. He i9 impressive in his manner,, the soul of courtesy to all, and discharges th9 duties of the office with the simplicity of a veteran at the business. Tbe charge of Judge Dantaler was considered one of the strongest ever delivered here. He defined the duties of grand jurors with much force, ? ' ? - - i-T a. tnougn m suea a simpie manner uia.i even a child could understand. He urged upon the jurors the great responsibility resting upon them, and admonished them to see to it that the law is enforced. There is no abler judge on the bench in South Carolina, or in any other State, "than Charles G. Dantzler, and bis charge made a favorable impression upon all those who heard it. The first case tried was that of the State against B. F. Rushton, a white man from Saluda county, upon the charge of forgery. ' tfhe^ Citizens* Bank of Batesburg, was the prosecutor, and it was alleged that Rushton secured monev from the bank to the i amount of |125, by forging a paper. < Rushbou was not present at the trial and, his attorney, B. B. Evans, of Saluda, put up no witnesses in his behalf. After being out only a few .minutes.the jury returned a verdict "of guilty, and Judge Dantzler issued a bench warrant for his arrest. . The grand jury of which Mr. A. L. Hook is foreman, returned the following true bill8: Julius Chsvis, larceny; Quitman Gayden, seduction; Thomas ' Craft, murder; George Jones, larceny; Standford Gibson, alias Sam Brown and John Kennedy, burgary and larceny; E.

Jfhe Smith Shows. The iohn R. Smith Carnival Co., representing ten big shows, is here and everybody is happy. There was general disappointment on Monday evening when the management announced that only the doors of one of the shows would be open to the public. However, this proved to be one of the most unique and interesting ever seen here. The " Wonderful Mechanical City"'presents a most interesting scene. Here a thousand and one departments are continuously in operation. The admission price to the "Mechanical City" is only ten pents.hnd it is worth many times the price/ Last night all of the shows were open and the merry-go-round was in. operation. The noted palmists were kept busy telling the past, present and future of the young; the old plan-, tation was crowded until a late hour; "Amv,,r$helargest girl on earth, tipping the'scales at 619 pounds, attracted a great deal of attention, as did the big snake, which measures more than 23 feet in length and weighs over 200 tonnes. ' * ... Mr. Smith, the general manager of the -company, is a wholesouled, hightoned gentleman, and he has one of, the cleverest aggregations in America. KM, NITR For Anythin BEFORE BIT'S .
