The following report from the Chief Constable to. Governor Hoy ward will he oi JnteriHt to our readers, and Is given in full: Columbia, tt. C,, May 30, 1003. GuVcj uur I). C. Hey wa rd, Columbia, S. C. Dear Rlr: I beg to submit herewith a report of the work done by the State Cojivtybwlaj-y, with tho cost of same, (hiring tho mouth* of March end April of thlM year, together with a compara tive statement of what was accomp lished during the nam? pf.rlod of loot year. This report bus be<n delayed for tho reason t^that I was not able sooner to secure tho figures from Die accounting department showing the ttalen of the Dispensaries throughout the State. You are, of course, aware of tho fact that within this short time it baa been Impossible to perfect the Constabulary force, but! have endeavored to proceed tilong this Hue an rapidly as possible consistent with safety an/1 tho best In terests of the State. It gives? me pleasure to bo able to stnto that there baa been very llttlo friction in our ef forts to bring about a better enforce ment of the law, and I am gratified to note a disposition on the part of tho people generally to encourago and sjs-. slat in 'bringing about h. better condi tion of affairs, Exhibit "A," 'next attaehed, will <bow you tho amount it has cost to maintain tho Constabulary during the two montha. You will note that it la In oxcess of the amount required for the same period of 1S02. The force hna been increased, and the value of tho seizures made and the increased sales by tho Dispensaries will. In my Judg ment, justify my nctlup In doing so. In reorganizing and systematizing tiie force moro expense has been incurred ihan will ho necessary in future, and I feel sure that hotter re?ul!s will be ob tained from this time on. Exhibit "B" will shmv you tho quan tity 'find value of liquors which hr.ve been seized during the months referred to. In arriving at the value of theso joods I have endeavored to be very rarefui, and am positlvo that they arn lot overestimated. These poods are held In the contraband room for thirty 'lays, aa required by law, at tho expira tion of which tiih?, unless sound rea ions for their return havo been shown, they are delivered to tho Commissioner for tho tino of the State and placed In ,ho various Dispensaries for sale. Exhibit "C" will inform you ad to the Dispensary sales, and from It you will ice that they have been very largely Increased. When it Is remembered that [ho salo of liquor generally decreases with the advent of the Snrlng andt Summer months 1 cannot think other than that tho vigilance of the Constab ulary In pi^Ti'ntlng the wholesale Im portation oiHwhiskoy Into the State Is responsible tor this result, and that the law Is being enforced to a very much greater extent. I am Indebted to the Clerk, to the Board of Directors and his assistants for courtesies shown in olleetlng this datsa. Exhibit "D" will give you an Idea of what Is being done with reference to prosecuting violations of the law. Quite a number of cases are now pending in tho courts, and there seems to be a move favorable disposition <m the part 0? Juries to punish those who are guilty of these violations. It cannot be denied that whiskey Is atlll belyg handled illicitly In almost ivovy section of the State, hut there has been a wonderful Improvement ? v?ry were, and especially in Charles lion and Columbia. Very heavy seiz ure?! have been made,, in these two fitiorr, and offenders have been made to .*r allzo that further violations of the Dispensary law .\utxtld not remain un punished. Trusting that you will be pleased with the showing made, I have \thc honor to he , Yours very triily, U. B. HAMMF.T, ?'-Chief Constable. EXHIBIT A. Expense of Constabulary. March * 1902. 1903.

Not art Ea?y Thing to Satisfy Royal Sitter, A well-known Now York artist, who has just returned from an extended journey in tho Far East, tells how ho attempted to paint tho portrait of a natlvo prince in Corea: "For moro ^Wn three hours tho prince sat m6tlonlcss and without a word, Ilk? a statue. 'It is finished,' I told him at last, and he jumped up >like a child and ran over to flee the work. His delight was unbounded, and ho seized my hand and began to shake it in a most enthusiastic man ner. "Suddenly he became grave and stared at tho picture In a mystified way. Ho looked and looked aud thon peered around at' tho back of the canvas. Ho seemed horrified beyond expression. "What Is it?" I inquired. " 'You have not put,..in my Jado or nament.' said he in despair. "I had painted his portrait full faco, and as the Ccreans have the strange habit of putting small but tons of gold, silver, Jado or amber behind the left ear these, of course, did not appear. "My explanations did rot satisfy the prince, so I did a rapid sketch of him in profile, bringing in tho Jade ornament. , "'That Js al! very well,' said Kb; 'but now whore is the other eyo?' " Victims of Too Much Sympathy. The Roy. Dr. Lorlmer, the minister at the Madison Avenue Baptist church, is responsible for this story, though no does not vouch for the truth of it, usoful as It may bo to point a moral : "A nestful of young linnets were in tho corner of a field in India. Having lost their mother, they were cold and hungry. Tlicy flapped their little featherloss wings, thereby attracting the attention of a huge elephant which stood near by. =>? "'Ah.' said the elephant, 'y6u poor llttlo things. You have lqst your moth-. er, and have nobody to nestle yojiV " 1 ijjpi a mother, and have a mother's heart. I will nestle you and keep you warm!' And thereupoB' the elephant sat upon tho nest containing the poor llttlo llnnot8."? New York Times. Darwin's Comparison. In a letter Darwin wrote: "At a houso where wo have been staying there wero Sir A. and Lady Hobliouse, not long ago returned from India, and she and he kept a young monkey and told me some curiouo particulars. One was that her monkoy was very fond of looking through her eyeglasses atob jcets and moved tho glass hearer and k. farther so as' to vary the focus. This struck me, as Frank's sotj, nearly 2 yeurs x>ld ? and wo think much of his intellect ? 13 very fond of looking ; through my pocket lens and I have quite In vain endeavored to teach him not to put tho glass down on tho ob Joct, but he always will do so.
