SOUTH CAROLINA NEWS. Duncan Exonerated. John T. Duncan, the man who kept John Gary Evans out of the United States senate, was prosecuted before the supreme court this week in disbarment proceedings, his alleged offense being swindling a client. After hearing both sides of the case, the court dismissed the complaint and exonorated Duncan. It was a very clear case that there was not a little spite work in the whole matter, and that there was really nothing unprofessional in Duncan's conduct. JcnklnM Sword Fond. The fund contributed by citizens of South Carolina for a sword to be given Major Micah Jenkins has been finally closed up and a balance which remain ed has been disposed of by contriDuuon to the fund of the Hampton monument. The total amount subscribed for the sword was $414.40. The total expenditures by the committee in charge of the presentation were $383.70, leaving a balance of $30.70 on hand. The committee unanimously determined to contribute this amount to the Hampton monument fund and the chairman of the committee turned it over to Col. A. C. Haskell, chairman of the Hampton monument fund. Game Uw In Greenville. Greenville News, Thursday: The practice of restauranteurs in selling quail has been given a blow in this section of the country by a recent decision of Judge Gary rendered at the criminal court held here last week. It will be remembered that William Sewing, proprietor of a restaurant on Main street, was tried before Magistrate McBee, several weeks ago and convicted of the charge of violating the game law by offering quail for sale. Magistrate McBee sentenced Mr. Sewing to pay a fine of $12.50 or 30 days on the gang. Mr. Sewing gave notice of an appeal. At the last term of the court of general sessions the appeal was brought before Judge Gary who confirmed the decision of the magistrate. Mr. Sewing has been notified of the decision of Judge Gary and has paid up the fine. This is the first instance known to have occurred in this section of the country where the defendant was prosecuted and fined for selling birds. It is fitting example to other proprietors of restaurants which they will do well to follow. The members of the local game association are determined to see to it that the game law is enforced and anyone found violating it will lay themselves liable to prosecution. South Carolina Patronage. Washington special of Wednesday to the Columbia State: Before Senator Tillman could fight his confirmation, ? * nv?qo wlthHmwn thp . iTesiuem uuuacicn ..?o ........ , nomination of W. L. Harris to be postmaster at Charleston, as was announced in The State today. The president's retrograde movement is due to his discovery that Harris is not a bona fide resident of South Carolina. He was appointed largely because of his having married a cousin of Maj. Micah Jenkins. Harris also had the endorsement of the district attorney, Capt. Capers. Major Mowry, a former postmaster. and John Devaux are aspirants for the postmastership. Having been embarrassed by following the advice of Mr. Capers in the Harris appointment, the president may now consult men like Mayor Smyth and President Wagener, of Charleston, in his'next nomination. In view of the "holdup" certain Democratic senators have in store for Senator McLaurin's nomination for a judgeship in the court of claims, it is probable that the president will not announce his appointment until just before congress adjourns, perhaps not until afterwards. McLaurin then will have assumed office when congress convenes in December and will therefore be more than likely to be confirmed. Colombia. Female College. Columbia correspondent of The News and Courier: The people of the Gamecock City have enthusiastically entered the competition for the removal of the | Columbia Female college from Columbia to quarters more suited to the upbuilding and advancement of the college. As told already, Laurens and Greenwood have sent delegations to invite the board of trustees to send a committee to visit these cities for the purpose of inspecting the sites offered. Today a committee with a similar purpose in view came up from Suntt^r. 'ihe gentlemen, as was the case with the committees from Laurens and Greenwood, declined to make public any of the inducements which would be offered by Sumter. They assert that the people of Sumter are in earnest and will offer some beautiful sites and will supplement this with an offer of money which will prove their sin cerity in this mater. Every denomination was represented on the ' committee, showing that the business men of Sumter want the college. Those who presented the invitation from Sumter were the Rev. J. W. Kilgo, presiding elder; the Hon, A. B. Stuckey, the mayor, who is always looking out for something to build up Sumter; Mr. J. M. Knight, editor of the Sumter Herald and an enterprising young business man; the Hon. Richard I. Manning, senator from Sumter county; Mr. Neill O'Donnell, a wealthy and public-spirited merchant; Mr. W. M. Graham, a well-known horseman: Mr. C. G. Rowland and Mr. E. W. Moise. These gentlemen represent the religious and business interests of Sumter. Columbia has one advantage over the other cities in the contest?the other cities must make direct appropriations or get contributions for the removal of the college, which is now in the most attractive part of the state from a geographical standpoint. When Rock Hill took Wintrop away up on ti?e North Carolina line it was through the offer of $60,000 in bonds. Rut that was a state Institution and bonds could be issued in aid of the Rock Hill bid. In the present case the institution is denominational and under the new constitution a community cannot bond Itself for the establishment or maintenance of a denominational college. AT THE CHURCHES.
