Court Proceedings- J
The regular February term of court
for this county opened here on Monday
morning with the Hon. Charles
G. Dantzler, of Orangeburg, presiding.
Solicitor Timmerman, Stenographer

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. Hotto, murder. 1

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.
