Columbia, March 31.-The county auditor of Lee county has writtei Governor Heyward, with ref erence to the checking up of request books, exactly on the line he expected. He advised tihe state board that he had never gotten a refusal from the coun ty auditor and that it would be time to deal with the'cointy auditors when the boards and the dispensers them selves attended to the request book features of the dispensary law. The letter from the ILee county auditor reads: Bishopville, S. C., March 30, 1906. Governor D. C. Heyward, Columbia, S. C.-Dear Sir: I notice from the papers that the letter of Capt. W. S. James, ehairman of the county board Sof control has been referred to you, and I think it due myself and due you that I should make an explanation. I did not decline to handle the re-. quest books in the spirit of a refusal to carry out the law, but made this statement to Capt. James because my time is absolutely and entirely taker \.up with the duties of the auditor 's office. I am not furnished a clerk, rand the duties require all of my time It is a physical impossibility for me to keep these books as required by the law. For that reason I told Capt James I just simply could not under take to handle the request books. ] do hope that something can be done to relieve us of what appears to be the duty of performing an impossi rble task. I am perfectly willing to discharge all the .duties pertaining to my office but I cannot do more work than] have before me. I trust you under stand and appreciate both my motive and my position in this matter. C. W. Woodham, County Auditor. CAR, lundred Barrels of thai !

Governor Heyward thinks with a little eneouragement that the request books can be used if the dispensers themselves will only see that the cus tomers are made to sign the blanks. April Designer. The April Designer is full of the tidings of spring.'s approach, not only with dainty apparel for women and young folks, but with fiction, verse and illustrations particularly appro priate for the time of year. Easter brides will find designs for wedding toilettes and for pretty lingerie fox the trosseau, and a special article shows how to arrange the bridal veil. Advance suggestions and photographs of spring hats will also prove useful. "Easter in Moravid,'' by Julia Davis Chandler; "Making Easter Novel ties,'' by Winifred Fales, and."But terflies,'' by Craig S. Thorns are three charmingly illustrated articles, and a short story, "The Milk of Human Kindness,'' by Ada Marie Peck, has Easter for its keynote. Anmong the ieidedly practical contributions this month are ~"Aimateur"Collections,' by Mary Kilsyth; "The Utility House-Cleaner,'' in "In thie Interest of Bread-Winning'' series, by Ber tha Hasbrook; "What To Do With Leisure Hours,'' in "Our American Daughters,'' by Bertha Gaus; "Mak ing a Becoming Bonnet,'' by Amy Hunt Coulthard, and "Making Lin gerie Blouses,'' under "Points on Dressmaking.'' "Bobby,'' said the mother of a lit -tie upper west side boy, "I don't want you to play with that new lit te boy in the next house any more. He is not a nice little boy. He has bad tricks.'' Bobby went out very soberly. Shortly after he was heard calling softly through the area railing: "Say, little boy, come over and play wiv me. T amn't ot no bad tricks." BOGGS VS. AIKEN Congressman Aiken Stys he Will be Pleased to Have Mr. Boggs.Keep Him Company In Race For Congress. Cogressman Aiken spent a couple of hours in the city yesterday after noon, says the Anderson Daily Mail. Mr. Aiken secured a few days leave of absence from his duties in Washington to visit his home at Ab beville on private business. He has a son in school at Greenville, and de cided to come by Anderson on his way to Greenville, and his many friends here were more than glad to see him. Mr. Aiken seemed in the best of health and was as joyial as of yore. The life in Washington is not telling on him. Naturally about the first question put to him by his friends was about the race for congress this summer -and what he thought of hav ing Solicitor Boggs as an opponent. "Why, that is all right,'' he said, "I will be a candidate for re-election. Jule Boggs and myself are the best of friends, and I would be very silly to object to him running for congress if he wants to do so, I will have to go all overthe district this summer any way, whether Boggs runs or not, and I will be very glad to have him go along and keep me company. He is a nice fellow and I can enjoy myself with him. But of course I don't think he stands a ghost of a chance of being elected." And Mr. Aiken smiled genially. "It's like this," said Mr. Aiken, "the office of congressman belongs to the people. If they want me to con tinue to represent them I shall be glad to do so, and if they want some one else I am ready to step down and out. I think, though, the people have learned to set some store by the fact that length of service adds to effi ciency, and that'they will argue that if they have a congressman who is doing good service there will be no need of a change. An inexperienced man is not worth much. At the same time it is the duty of the people, if they find that they have an ineffi cient public servant, to make change. 1t will be up to the people to'decide this summer, and I am quite willing to go before the people and ask them to deeide it. I am not mad at mny friend Boggs for running, and I don 't want hiin to get mad when I keep him from getting the office.'' .Whend sked about the trend of legislation in Washington Mr. Aiken said he could give no more 'informa tion than had already been given in The thaily Mail's report from Wash ington. The -statehood bill has been held up for the present, he said, but would probably pass. The appropriation for the Anderson postoffice building is as much a cer tainty as anything in the future can be, he said. Anderson has been in luded in the general public building bill, which is about ready to be re ported to the house, and the bill is certain to go through. Speaker Can non has been holding the bill as a club over the heads of the insurgents on the statehood bill and other matters, but it will certainly be passed. In reply to a question Mr. Aiken said he thought there was still a chance for the bill to create a new federal district in this state, .but he is not every optimistic over it. The South Carolina members will endeav or'to get the bill up in a short while and see what can be done with it. "Unsight, Unseen.'' St. Paul Pioneer-Press. SeeretaryV Shaw told a story on Representative Smith of Iowa, when the latter was a fledgling attorney and anxious to make a reputation for him self. A prisoner was brought before the bar in the criminal court in Iowa, but he was not yet represented by a lawyer. '*'Where is your lawyer?'' inquired the judge who presided. 'I hiave none,'' answered the pris oner. "Why haven't you?'' "Haven't any money to pay a law yer.'' ''Do you want a lawyer?'' asked the judge. ''Yes, your honor.'' ''There is Mr. Walter I. Smith, John Brown, George Green,'' said the judge,-pointing to a lot of young at torneys who were about the - court waiting for something to turn up, 'and Mr. Alexander is out in the corridor.'' The prisoner eyed the budding at torneys in the court room and after a ritical .survey stroked his chin and said: ''Well, I guess I will take Mr. Alexander.'

Joakley-She 's the widow who owns that big hotel. Coakley-He seems very devoted. Do you think he loves her in reality? Joakley-Well, I think he loves her in realty.-Philadelphia Press. In a murder ease tried before a certain judge, says the Philadelphia Ledger, counsel for the defendant urged: ''It is better that ninety and nine guilty persons escape than that one innocent man should suffer.'' In his charge to the jury the judge ad mitted the soundness of the proposi tion, but added: ''Gentlemen, I want you to understand that the ninety and nine have already escaped.' '-Ex.
