The damage to the house was principally from water. - No Hunter's License for York. Pililiir t'ni't Mill 'I'ii.iDC' | ? J MIIVO, In last week's issue of The | Tirues, page 1, there appeared I an article from the Dillon Herald relative to the hunter's license; law passed at the 19 lo session of the (lonerai Assembly. Those who did not follow the passage 5 of this act through the General Assembly conclude from read-' ing the article that the law is Statewide in its scope. Such is j not the case. A number ot counties, one of which is York, 1 are not included in it. In Yorkj j county no license is required of J the resident hunter. The hunt-1 ! ing laws for York County were' not changed at the 191 o session! of the General Assembly. I imagine that this is a matter in which a considerable number ui uui i ?v i /1 MI ail/ niifH'Mt'u cuiw j i woui'l therefore thank you to ! publish this card in I'he Times p this week. W. R. Bradford. November 22. Again Declared Unconstitutional, j At Spartanburg Tuesday Judge John S. Wilson held South Caro-! I lina's galion-a-month law un- j constitutional in its application to intrastate shipments of 1 itjuor. I ; The trouble is in the title of the ct, according to the court's r j ruling and is one that legislative] ; amendment will cure readily. ; i i'he court held that the title of] the act does not con 1'orni to i articles, section 17 ot the Con- j' stitution, which provides that's i . I every act or resolution having1 I I lie force of the law shall relate ; to one subject and thai shall be 1 expressed in the title. The title j of the gallon-a-inonth law slates the subject of the act to be that!1 of the regulation of the shipment! ! of alcoholic liquor into the State! ' but makes no reference to ship- j ; ment entirely within the State. Convict Stii! at Lagre. Will Crosby, the negro convict who escaped from the county chaingang last Thursday while a i portion of the gang was at work : on the Hock Hill road near White j Hill church, is still at large, says 1 j the Yorkville Enquirer.

Thorn-1 asson's place Thursday afternoon and he managed to cut the shackles there wi th the aid of a har- , row tooth. It is also said that the negro was seen in the Filbert I community Friday afternoon. 1 A "HELPINC HE Our purpose is to s< to hand you as a 1 haul "the turkey and the trimming; An account in this rich quick, but to bocc will shall dilate.
