MR. J. H. CHAPPELL'S BOND. There Was Something Defective and Gov. Heyward Declined to Sign Mr. Chappell's Commission. Last winter N. J. Mayer, the dispen ser at Newberry, died and was suc ceeded by J. H. Chappell. It appears that Chappell was elec-ed for the un .xpired term and that the :otity ,board at a recent meeting ejected Chappell to succeed himself for the full term. beginning September 1st. The bond was sent here several days ago for approval but there was some thing defective about it. Gcv. Hevward declined to sign the eommission until the bond should be filed in proper form. F. H. Dominick. a lawyer from Newberry. waited on the governor yesterday and urged that the commission be signed. but Gov. Heyward did not do so. Chap pell will hold his office unbil his suc cessor is elected and can qualify, so the dispensary will run right along until it is closed by the county board as ordered by the people in the recent election. It is believed that the earn estness with which Chappell's com mission was sought indicates that some kind of fight will !be instituted to keep the dispensary from being closed. The overwhelmning vote in 1rew berry county has occasioned a great deal of surprise. There are to be elec Lions in other counties soon and it is believed that the result in Newberry will be repeated in other counties. There will be an eleccion in York coun:V on the 26th of September and one at Ma-ion on the 19th of this month. Horry. Florence and Lan caster will vote out the dispensary on the 3rd of October and the election will be held in Spartanburg on the 14ch of November. . Greenville, Anderson, Edgefield, Darlington, Fairfield, Lexington and several other counties are on the verge of elections, some of the coun ties named merely waiting on the su preme court to declare its construc tion of the consticutionality of tlie Brke law before those counties go ahead with the expense of an election. -The State. MR. A. ?. BOOTH RESIGNS. Secretary and Stenographer of the D spensary Investigation Has Sent in His Resignation. The St . There is considerable speculationl here as to what will be brought out 'by the investigating committee at its meeting at ,Sumter next week. It is presumed that there must be some matters in that territory to look after and it is supposed that Mr. L. W. Boykin will a%pear at that time and will make the statement in which he savs he will exonerate himself from the charge in regard to the labels. It is not known whether or not Spartanburg will furnish the custom arv sensation, but it is presume.d there will be some outcome of Capt. Fant's testimony. Capt. Fant told his evi dence in a very convincing manner, but it has been assailed as "hearsay" and B. W. Ewbank in a c: -d in the Spartanburg Herald has accused Capt. Fant of being guilty of practically the same thing that Capt. Fant charg i against Ewbank. But Capt. Fa I made his sratement under oath Pu - lic and in the face of some of the men whom he accused. The investigation last week did not develop anything as to Richland coun tv. and indeed i: is claimed that if the dispensary business is clean anywhere it is in Richland county. Mr. A. H. Booth. the stenographer of the dspensary committee, has re signed and will not be present at the neeting in Sumter next week. The committee will have to elect a succes ~-..sor. Mr. Booth was very unwell at the Spartanburg meeting and again at the meeting in this city. AGAINST SALE CIGARETTES. Nation Association Trying to Gel All States to Pass Laws. The State.

The steamer suddenly whistled, 2 town of gray frame houses I'ove ir sight, and a hot yo'ung man with , big "telescope valise" hurried up tht companionway. "I'll get off here, captain," he said "Your ticket ain't for here," th< captain growled. "I know, but I've changed m3 mind," said -the youth. A few minutes later he and hi "tela,scope valise" were landed or the worm eaten old wharf of th< town of Cicero., and the dingy steam er was plodding down the river again She had gone about a mile wher another young man rushed from be low wi.ld eyed. "My telescope!" he cried. "Som one has stolen my telescope! Ther was $1.700 in it!" The captain started. He looke< back at Cicero. which now lay hid den behind a bend of the river. Hi called the mate and told him to cov er the bow with some black tarpaulin to move certain pieces of cargo af and to tie some white canvass aroun< the smokestack. Then he turned th< steamer around, and she began t< move up stream toward Cicero again She loked like a different boat. At Cicero she stopped. On thi deserted wharf there was one persor -the young man with tl'e telescope who had ben landed there. He leape< aboard now, the boat warped out int< the stream, and then the captain ap peared. "Hello!" said the captain. "Why, this is the same boat I The young man trembled. "It certainly is," said the captain "and this. I reckon, is the valise wi came back for." He opened the telesecpe. and with in in a wallet lay the stolen money The'owner readily identified his be logns Thethief was%put in iron: n the engine rom. "A smart trick," everybody said. "Mysef And Me." I'm the best pal that I ever had I like to be with me, I like to sit and tell myself Things confidentially. I often sit and ask me If I shouldn't or I should And -I find that my advice to me Is always pretty good. I never got acquainted with myself *Till here of late, And I find myself a bully chum, I treat me simply great., I talk with r and talk with me And show me right and wrong, I never knew how well myself And me could get along. I never try to cheat me, I'm truthful as can be, No matter what may come or go I'm on 'the square with me. It's great to know yourself And have a pal that's all your owr To be such company for yourself You're never left alone. You'll try to dodge the masses And you'll find a crowd's a joke, If you only treat yourself t I've made a study of myself Compared me with a lot, And I've finally concluded I'm the best friend that I've got. Just get together with yourself, And trust yourself with vou, And you'll be surprised how well Yourself will like vou if you do. Geo. M. Cohan.
