ALLS FOR EVIDENCE. ispensary Investigating Committee Issues Proclamation Ask ing Information. At its meeting in Columbia last week the dispensary investigating committee decided to issue a call for all persons in the state who have evidence against the management of the state dispensary to come forward with it. Th- count papers are re qu'ested to copy the following, which is~the official call: "All persons in this or any other state are requested to send any in formation in their possession relating to the affairs of the South Carolina state dispensary which is the cause of any complaint. They are also re quested to state fully any facts that they have as to irregularities, mis management or corruption therein, or of any one connected therewith, with suggestions as to how the truth of the same may be properly ascertain ed. "No communication will be con sidered unless signed by the parties send:ig it, but the name of the sender will rot be given to the public if such be desired.

Spivey, Conway, "J. Fraser Lyon, Abbeville," Failed to Hold Her. She is a club woman with a sense of humor, but the other day when she decided to attend a federation session in another town she had some misgiv ings. She told her husband that she was possessed of a premonition of tvil and cautioned him to be especially careful of the children. He merely laughed and said that he guessed they would be all right, then remarked, jocosely: "If you get worried you migIf telegraph." In the evening of her second day away she did worry and sent this tel agram to her husband: "How are the children?" T,he messenger boy came with tht cispatch just as the man was about to retire. He read it, smiled and then penned this answer: "They're all right. Why?" "I guess thiat will hold her for awhile." he said to himself. and then he went to bed. He felt so good over what he con sidered to be the shrewdness of his reply that he laughed to himself. for getting for the time being t'he old adage: "He inughs best who lat.bs last." It was 3 o'clock in the morning when he was aroused by the violent ringing of his door bell. Slipping into bath robe and slippers he went to the door and admitted a young Mer cury who .handed out a yellow enve lope. It was torn open quickly, read, and then the husband kicked himself back to bed as a recollec-lon of his question in his message to his wife imp.ressed itself up. n his sleepy con wo'rd: To Be Hanged Together.

A general in the civil war applied at the close of the conflict for admission to the bar of the United States. A committee of three examiners reported that he had answered cor rectly two-thirds of the question put to him. A judge, astonis,hed at the general's success, asked the chairman of the committee what the questions were. "Well." he replied, "the first was. 'What is the rule in Shelly's case?' and the answer was 'Writing poetry.' That was not correct. "Then we asked him what was a 'contingent remainder' and a 'vested interest,' and he said he did not know. That was correct, and we admitted him." Reduced Rates to Florence.
