The Recital Friday Evening.
The recital given in Roof's Hall on
Friday evening by the department
of expression under the instruction
of Miss Lucille Efird was a brilliant
affair, and was witnessed by a
laree and aDDreciative audience.
The exercises consisted of a twoact
comedy, entitled "Social Difficulties."
Those who took a part in the
play were: Misses Jennie Brown,
Mae and Annie Lou Taylor, Alice
Mae Butler, Ruth Clarke, Pearle Taylor
Iva Crout and Messrs. Heber Ballentine,
John Sox, Samuel Schneider
and Ellis Eflrd. Each of them performed
their parts well and reflected
much credit on their instructor.
This is the second year Miss Eflrd
has been at the head of this department
and the class this year was very
large. Miss Eflrd is a graduate of the
College for Women, Columbia, and is
one of the brightest young ladies going
out from this well known institui>2

Balph Claris Bound Over.
R. A. Clark of Batesburg had a hearing
at noon yesterday before United
States Commissioner Beverly Sloan,
on the charge of entering the United
States postoffice in that place on March
20 and taking therefrom stamps to the
value of $26. The evidence was circumstantial,
and the youth was held
for bond in the sum of $700.
Four witnesses were present from
Batesburg to testify. They were John
G. Darby, chief of police of Batesburg;
J. Frank Kneece, vV. T. McCarty and
Miss Eunic^ Courtney.
The evidence given was that between
the evening of March 20 and
the morning of March 22 the postoffice
had been entered and the stamps
stolen. The door had evidently been
opened by means of a master key.
The postmaster found the door unlocked.
On April 12 the stamps were re"
turned, with exception of those1 of denomination
of 1 cent, to the amount
of about ?4. The envelope in which
they were sent was addressed "Postmaster,
Batesburg, S. C.," and were
mailed in that city. The stamps were
folded in two 9heets of paper.
Suspicion pointed to defendant a9
being the person who mailed the envelope
containing the stamps, and the
chief of police" searched defendant's
trunk, in which he found sheets of
paper exactly like the 9heets in which
the stamps were inclosed when returned
to the postmaster; also envelopes
that corresponded with the
one in which the stamps and sheets
were inclosed, and returned to the
nnafmaafpf Thp wn.f-prma.rt r?n thp
paper was "Trust company linen."
Witnesses testified that defendant
had, on April 31, come into the office
of the Batesburg Advocate where they
saw the envelope addressed on the
typewriter, defendant saying he was
sending an "April fool" to the postmaster,
and did not want his writing
to be recognized. The envelope and
paper were identified by witnesses at
the examining trial yesterday.?The
State, 24th.

Paul E. Hutto A Wreck.
The return of Sheriff P. H. Corley
i
in the case of A. W. Martin, plaintiff,
against Paul E. Hutto, defendant, was
filed with the clerk of the Court on
Monday. The papers are blood stained,
Sheriff Corley having had them in
his pocket on Wednesday at the time
he was shot by the negro, Ed Bynum.
The sheriff returned from Swansea
late Tuesday night, and had not had
a chance to file them with the clerk
before he was shot on Wednesday
morning.
An execution against Hutto was
placed in the sheriff's hands about a
week ago, to collect a debt of $768.14,
with all costs, interest, etc, since the
first day of October, 1907, and if the
amount could not be collected, to
bring Hutto to jail, in obedience to
the decree of the Supreme Court.
It is alleged that Hutto, who is an
exraember of the House from this
county, having served from 1904 to
1906, is now a mental and physical
wreck, and in no condition to be removed
from his home. This allegation
is backed up by three physicians'
certificates, and Sheriff Corley did not
care to run the risk of carrying out
the order of the Court, and Hutto was
allowed to remain at bis home.
Sheriff Corley will now await the ruling
of a Judge before taking further
steps in the caae.
The further action of the Court in
this case will be watched with interest.
It i9 one of the most novel and interesting
cases ever tried in the Courts
of this State. It has been before the
Supreme Court twice, and the decision
of that tribunal has already been given
out in the press. The plaintiff i9 represented
by Messrs DePass&DePass,
of Columbia, and the defendant bv
i
Messrs Graham & Sturkie, of Lexington.

your verdict. He has a full line of
heavy, staple and fancy groceries, hay,
grain and food stuffs. Go to see him
