Waddill of the federal district court e today refused to grant the temporary restraining order prayed for by H. l- Clark & Son and other Richmond and T> Petersburg mail order liquor houses o against the Southern Express com>t pany to prevent the company from l- refusing to accept consignments of liquor for persons in South Carolina. ?f The court went on to say that its *1 refusal to grant the injunction does n not necessarily prevent the complain7. ants from continuing to do business ,s in South Carolina if they have the :s right to do so under the laws of that >- State. o It said further that the express d company might be liable for omission g properly to perform its duty if it fail;e ed to receive the shipments in quesi tion. 1 a Summing up, Judge Waddill pointt ed out that the sanction of the court ii was merely withheld pending a settle>f ment of the question whether it is t, legal for liquor to be shipped into South Carolina. District Attorney Groner stated " J J 1 < tn3.t Q nau reutjun^ uecu iu wiucience with Attorney General McReynolds in regard to the Webb-Kenyon 1_ act which is concerned in the ques;e tion at issue, and that the attorney iy general had expressed a desire to be 01 heard before final disposition of the Webb-Kenyon bill which prohibits _ shipments of liquor into a State ir where the laws prohibit it. id ie Lumberman Shot; Wife Held. $ P.

Wofford College and of the school, 1 will be present and make an address. ] We may all be sure that Dr. Snyder 1 will say something worth hearing.

Kinard ^ and Daniel Risher, two young white ? men, charged with the killing of 3 Thomas Marvin, a young white man j who had come to town only a few ? weeks before the killing and who was g employed in the cotton mill. The , * t killing occurred a few months ago t on MaTn street in this city, just out side of the door of the restaurant z next to the store of the Bamberg x Furniture & Hardware Company. c Marvin was killed by a pistol shot ? wound, which took effect near the ? heart. The shooting took place shortly after dark on a Sunday night. 2 Since the affair Messrs. Kinard and Risher have been in jail, no at- { tempt for bail having been made, t The case consumed two days, Thurs- t day and Friday, the jury returning t a verdict shortly after dark Friday j night. i The testimony was conflicting in i many points. Mr. Marvin was in ? company with C. M.. Young, who was ? charged with seriously cutting D. A. ^ Kinard"with a knife some time pre- t viously. Witnesses for the State tes- i tified in substance that Young and Marvin left the restaurant together f and Kinard and Risher followed them z out and that while Young got away e from the scene, a fight took place be- i tween Risher and Marvin and that e Kinard shot Marvin during the fight, z The defense contended that Marvin was shot by Young, who was shoot- ^ ing at Kinard. s The iurv returned a verdict of guil- r ty of manslaughter against both de- ? fendants. A motion for a new trial i was made and refused and Judge i Spain sentenced Kinard to serve ten years in the penitentiary and Risher i two years in the penitentiary or ? on the county chain gang. Sheriff t Ray left Saturday for Columbia with c Kinard and George Ann Bronson, the c negro woman, who was sentenced to c life imprisonment for killing a negro ? woman named Anna Curry. Mr. t Risher will serve his sentence on the < county chain gang. ( There was only one other criminal i case tried Saturday, which closed the t business on the criminal side of the < court. This was the case against C. '< M. Young, charged with cutting D. < A. Kinard some time ago, previous to J the killing of Marvin, as stated above. I The testimony in this case was also conflicting, there being some testi- '< monv that a man named Moore and not Young did the cutting. The case resulted in a mistrial. Monday morning of this week the trial of civil cases was taken up, and the first case disposed of was that of M. O'Riley against the Farmers & Merchants bank of Ehrhardt, a suit to recover the price of calendars furnished the bank. The defendant contended that it did not order the calendars. The jury rendered a verdict for the plaintiff for $22.50. In the case of H. C. Folk against D. O. Steedly a verdict for the plaintiff was rendered for $372.00. Denmark Machine Works against Southern Railway Co. resulted in a verdict for plaintiff for $197.06. Marriage at Edisto. Last Sunday aft< rnoon at four o'clock, at Edisto Baptist church in the Farrell's store section of this county, Miss Birdie Brooker and Mr. H. E. Warren were married, Rev. J. R. Fizer being the officiating minister. The bride is a sister of Mr. C. J. S. Brooker, of this city, and has been teaching in that section for a year or two. GOOD TIP ON VOTE GETTING. Contest Now on in Earnest and Hard Work is Being Done. In this contest the thing is to get the votes. The lady getting the highest number of votes will be declared the most popular lady in the community and be awarded a fine Oberniever & Sons piano valued at $400. This is surely worth a try. There is nothing gained in this life without an effort and you will be surprised to find how easy it is to get b votes in this contest. Besides the piano there are many other prizes to be given away, and the young lady who goes into the matter with a determination to win can hardly fail to win a prize well worth the effort. There are now two ways of getting votes. The first way is to pay cash in the purchase of your goods which is the best and most pleasing way for all concerned, and then demand coupons of the store. These coupons are good for 25 votes each and jount just as well as though you had jotten them at this office. The sec- ^ ?nd way and the way to get the larger coupons is to subscribe for The [ierald get your neighbor to subscribe, pay and have him pay all arrearage and pay in advance. The ast is the best way of all to get ^ nore votes. You can pay as far in * idvance as you please, and the more Cl ou pay, the larger the coupon you 0 jet. e For a while the ballot box will be 0 ;ept at this office, as we keep longer * msiness hours than any of the banks, 0 ind you can vote early and late, ^ater in the contest the box will be r' rj aken to the Bamberg Banking Co., vhere ballots may be deposited at c iny time during banking hours, and 1:1 -ou will know that your votes are ^ perfectly safe and will be counted is votes. For the present the box a >tands just inside The Herald office ^ ioor where you may step in at any n ;ime and deposit your tickets wheth- ^ ?r there is anyone in the office or t] lot. After the tickets are given out s ve have nothing to do with them ex- 0 :ept to hand over the prizes to such 12 is are declared the winners by the b iwarding committee. a We guarantee this contest to be b ibsolutely fair and honest, and at the J snd of thirty days three disinterested ^ lersons will open the box and count h he votes. The young lady that has s he highest number of votes at that ;ime will be awarded a $10 gold, liece. In another 30 days this will ie repeated, and at the end of the ast 30 days the box will be opened,, md the final award be made, when ill the prizes as advertised will be jiven out. The matter is now enirely out of the coupons as the noney is paid in on subscription. We know there has been dissatisaction in these contests and have idopted the above plan to satisfy ^ sveryone interested that there can be a lothing wron'g in this one, and that t( iveryone will get a square deal and ?? a 4 Ill ilUliCSt tuuuu It is better that you deposit your rotes often, as they will then be in Ll ;afe keeping, and at the same time ? lo one will know how many you have, is no one will have a look in the box intil the first count is made on March ' 14th. b Above all things get busy. The 0 lames of the young ladies who have h ilready been nominated in this con- Cj est are given below. We want each )ne of them to call at the Herald ^ )ffice and get a book of receipts and 0 :opies of the Herald to work with an,d si let busy. The one who does the best vork is going to have that beautiful Dbermeyer & Sons piano, and the )thers are going to be handsomely . ewarded by other prizes. In addi;ion one of them is going to win an ixtra prize of $10 in gold, to be a iwarded March 24. Now young la- b lies, it is up to you to get busy.
