WEBB LIQUOR LAW
WENT INTO EFFECT
It Stopped Deliveries of Whiskey for
Only a Short Timer However,-
Last week, Mr. Arthur Moore, the
local expresk agent, received instruc
tions from the company not to deliver
shipments of intoxicating liquors, un
less addressed to county dispensaries
established by law, and that if any such
prohibited shipments arrived, they
should be returned at once. As there
are no dispensaries in Barnwell county,
it was thought for a while that the “lid
was on tight,” as not even whiskey for
personal use could be delivered.
Following a restraining order issued
by Chief Justice Gary in Abbeville a
day or two later the express company
issued another order, authorizing de
liveries of liquor “to bona fide con
signees in South Carolina for personal
use.”
A telegram was sent to Representa
tive E. Y. Webb, author of the bill, by
his brother, C. S. Webb, a resident of
Greenville, asking his opinion as to the
effect on South Carolina. He replied:
“Law does not prohibit use shipment
and will not unless State forbids it and
State can not where it allows sale to
dividuals by any one in the State.”
So whiskey will continue to be shipped
into and delivered in this State until
April loth, when the hearing will be
held before the Supreme Court, and
possibly longer.

J. WHITNER REED TO
ADDRESS FARMERS
Will Bring Back Elliott Gardner, an Es
caped Barnwell Convict.
Mr. J. L. Carlton, of Allendale, left
yesterday for St. Paul, Minn., where he
goes to get Elliott Gardner, alias Wal
ter Peters, the escaped Barnwell Coun
ty convict. It was stated in last week’s
issue that Mr. Morris had already gone.
This was a mistake. He had intended
leaving, but the negro refused to come
back without requisition, and a little
delay was experienced in getting the
papers. The requisition has been
granted, however, and it is not likely
that any further difficulty will be ex
perienced in returning Gardner to this
county to finish serving his ten year
sentence for burning the gin house of
Mr. J. L. Ellis near Baldoc.

Mrs. Mary Lancaster.
Mi's. Mary Lancaster departed this
lite I- ebruary 2S, 1913, and her body
w as laid to rest in the cemetery at
Double Ponds Church in the presence
of a large concourse of sorrowing rela
tives and friends, the Rev. Bolen con
ducting the funeral services. Made a
widow by the war that crushed the
South, she lived solely for her children.
At an early age she affiliated with
the Double Ponds Church and was a
consistent member up to the time of
her death, having consecrated her life
to the service of the Lord. The suf
ferings of her last illness were borne
with the patient fortitude of the true
Christian and not once did she murmur
against the will of Him that doeth all
things will, and while it is hard to give
her up we humbly say, “Thy will be
done.”
Asleep in Jesus, blessed sleep,
From which none ever wakes to
weep.

With Proper Precautions, Much Sickness
Can be Prevented.
With the coming of Spring the mos
quito will again be with us. It is' best
to begin the fight against this pest
now. At this time it is well to burn
the marsh weeds or grass in order to
kill as many as possible of the hiber
nating eggs or larvae in the mud or
pool bottoms, and it is well also to fumi
gate cellars, attics, and outhouses.
Ponds of stagnant water should be
drained, and the ditches should be
inspected frequently to prevent them
from becoming choked. Fish are
among the most effective of the natural
enemies of the mosquito and wherever
possible fishless ponds should be stock
ed. The margins of such ponds, how
ever, must be kept free of reeds and
water plants so as to permit the fish to
reach the edges.
Where it is not possible to deal with
pools and ponds in this way, and in the
case of puddles, ditches, and the like,
which it is not feasible to fill in or
drain, resort may he had to coal 'kero
sene) oil. The oil may be poured on
with an ordinary sprinkling pot or the
surface sprayed with a hose. Suffi
cient oil should be used to cover the
entire surface with a thin film. The
oil thus spread on the surface acts as a
stopper, shutting off the supply of air
when the larv ae and pupae come to the
surface to breathe, and so cause their
death by suffocation. As the oil is
volatile and thus may become dissipated
