THE COURT HOUSE LOCATED. Montgomery-Godsey Lots Selected Price $3,400-The Other Places Offered and the Figures. The commission on buildinr the new court house held a meeting at Newberry yesterday to consider the different proposals for the location. There were present all the members of the commission and Mr. Otto Klettner was elected permanent see retary. The commission visited the differ ent sites proposed and deeided to ac cept the proposition of Messrs. Crot well and McCaughrin for what is known as the Godsey and Montgom ery lots next to the Crotwell hotel. These gentlemen who owned adjoining property, secured an option on these tow lots and put up the difference be tween what they have to pay for the lots and the price at which they of fer them to the commission. The Montgomery lot, it will be remem bered, does not go through the square, but runs back to the laundry lot. A committee was appointed to see Mr. Mower and ascertain at what price he would sell a portion ,of the laundry lot in order to extend the Montgomery lot through to the other street. Most people who submitted their property did not understand that the commission expected any private sub scription in order to secure a location. We give below a list of the different lots submitted and the price at which they were submitted. The houses on the lot secured are reserved by Messrs. Crotwell and McCaughrin and they are to move them off the property. Mr. F. L. Bynum was elected at torney of the commission and was au thorized to examine the titles of the property submitted to the commis sion and to make report at a future meeting. George W.

SENATOR BLEASE ON LOCATION No More Undesirable Place Could Have Been Chosen. Senator Blease who introduced the bill providing for the building of a new court house and the issuing of' bonds returned yesterday from St. George where he had bcen to defend Mrs. Bivens. In talking with a rep resentatiye of The Herald and News he was asked if he had heard of the location of the new court house and what he thought of it. In reply he said: "As senator I have nothing to say, but as an individual,I think when the commission advertised for proposals, that it was due the citizens that they confine them to propos'als, and that if they were going to permit property owners to make individual sub scriptions that they should have been ~fair and allowed it to all- by publish ing what the bids were and allowing other property owners, if they saw fit to* do so, to nmake private subscrip tions which would reduce the price of the lot which I know would have been done. The present location seems to be snap judgment and as I have just said, as senator I have no .comment, as an individuaal, looking to the fu ture .welfare of my city and county, they could not have chosen a less fit or more undesirable locataion, and I hope as a piece of justice to the corn ing generations that they have not gone so far that they couldn 't recon sider. However, the responsibility for the new court house is upon me. The responsibility for the location, if I am correctly informed as to who it is, I am delighted to say is upon some body else and I hope that the people of this city and county will not put upon my shoulders what I consider a serious mistake and a benefit, I am afraid, prearranged for a few. I do not charge this to all of the commis sion and have been censured for ap pointing that part of the commission which is accused directly with the re sponsibility of the choosing of this lot and I hope that the majority will reconsider or else not build the court house.. "Because, in my opinion, the spending of a few dollars or the sav ing of a few dollars should not have been considered in the location of the court house and it seems to me that anybody could have seen that the lo cation said to have been decided on is no i ae for it."' MILLINERY OPENING. Mimnaugh, Hair & Havird and Mow er Co. Present Many Beautiful Creations in Headgear.

There were the stylish Pana mas in ready-to-wear, rose sailors be decked in green ribbons, plaited ma lines in quantities-all going to make the scene one to be admired. And the large crowd which attended at tested to this fact. Miss Flourney, and Mrs. Hair-modestly attired as befitting the occasion-were diligent in exhibiting the many - articles, and tireless in their efforts to please the throngs. Those in charge of the preparation for the opening' at this store had spared no effort in making the store room of this concern one of the most artistically distinctive in the city. Mower Company. The spring opening at the Mower company on Tuesday was a scene of rare beauty, the decorations being in rose, the most popular 'shade of the season. As one entered the right entrance of the department the eyes fell upon the beautiful Parisian ribbons of the season in prevailing shades festooned artistically on a rose ground with white coverings. To the left was the same effect carried out in new Plaid ribbons. The most striking hat on display was~ a French creation, a white chip sailor having a lily of .the valley crown with raspberry roses for fin. ish beneath the lilies, an immenn light blue Messaline ribbon bow fin ished the back, bandeau being trim med in same style bow with raspberry roses. A strikingly "chie'' design was a violet turban, crown formed of "cab bage bow'' with buckle center. Everyone's attention was attracted to the white chip, oddly shaped or high bandeau, caught up with clusters of pink roses, with black quill on side. One of the most admired hats foi misses was a large, white leghorn trimed with American beauty roses and ferns. A French novelty was a Bluetti chip finished in roses same shade ol hat with a touch of brown maline.
