Cures Fever In One Day, Sweet Orr & Co’s overalls at $1.00 per suit at B. H. Rucker’s. Now Have lh* Knforrement of Uie nary I.aw In Tlielr HhikIh — Inst ruc tion* from the Mayor. The new order of things is on. The constables have lost their official character and Charleston knows no more the Metropolitan police. By the removal of the consta bulary the duty of enforcing the dispensary law devolves upon the towns. While heretofore it has been a sort of divided duty be tween the constabulary and local police, now there are no consta bles and all ihe work must be done bj the local authorities. Realizing the change of conditions and the increase of responsibility, Mayor W. H. Day has issued the subjoined additional instrnctions to the city police force. It will be seen thu.t they are clothed with full power to act and to bring all offenders to justice. ExBcjbnvK Department, Oityof Florence,Oct. I,’97.

Policemen are now clothed with full power to act in the premises, and will proceed to perform their duties in a positive but pleasant manner.
