Judgo Dixon addressing tho prisoners said: "You stand convicted of murder in tho scoond degreo. Had you boon found guilty of murder in tho first dogreo tho punishment woul I havo been death, but tho leniency of tho jury iu tho oTcroiso of their lawful authority saved you from tho gallows. Wo must administer laws as they aro. It is true _ these sentences will destroy yonr livos gblitcring every prospect of an honor able existence among tho peoplo. The court cannot ninko any distinctions but must Ecntenoo you for thin orirao*, "I trust t)io fearful oonscquenocs from oriuio will help young men and young women of this oominunity and point out to them that thoy cannot hope to scourc happiness outsido of virtue and honor. The sentoncc of the oourt is that each of you bo imprisoned m the State prison at Trenton at bard labor for a term of HO years." George J.

Mrs Shoiiff, who had Wednesday's raid, is under bond to appear at Danville in April to anBwor a charge of saloon wrecking placed against her six weeks ago. Mrs ShcrilF oatno to Anthony lato Tuosday and worked all eight procuring hatohets, axes and other implements of destruction and it was 2 o'olook this morning boforo sho had porfooted her plans for the raid.

Recent exporiuents show that all olassos of foods may bo completely digested by a preparation oallcd Kodol Dyspepsia Cure, which absolutely digests what you <at.

A ? X CONWAY PASSED THE HOUSE. Exposition Bill Agreed to by a Larga Maj -?rity. THE VOTE WAS FOUR TO ONE And Amendments Attempting to Cut Down the Proposed Appropriation Were Voted Dc wn. Tbo bill whioh passod tho Senate last week to appropriate $50,000 for a State building at the Charleston exposition passed tho llouao on Tuosday of last week by a voto of 02 to 23. This is tho badio proportion in which it passed the Sonato 4 to 1. Whon tho exposition bill oamo up Mr. Haoot offorod tho sonato bill as a substitute for tho houso bill. This was agrocd to, as tho wording of tho two almost identical and time oould bo savod by adopting the sonato bill, whioh had already passed tl o sona'o. Mr. Hailo of York offered an amend mr n I f n po/1 nert l*n r.?Ai?An?\/l * uut u v VV? I VUUUU VIIU J'l Vl'U"UU ' J ? I U $ .? 1 J ' | tion from $50,000 to $35,000. Mr. Baoot oaid tho ways and moans oommittoo had unanimously passed upon $50,000 as bniDg necessary. Tho building itsolf will oost $27,000. This building is to boar tho natno and to bo tho property of tho Htato. It may bo that this $27,000 amount must bo supplemented by tho exposition itsolf in order to erect a building along tho handsome dosigns furnished. Kaob of tho 10 oountios in tho Stato is to be enoouracd to havo an exhibit, and $10,000 will be noeded for this purposo. Clcmson's splondid exhibit will cost $3,000 to oollcot and to givo transporta tionMr. Hanks?Will this inoroaso tho tax levy? Mr. Hacot? 1 aru glad you asked tho question. Ho then road a statement from Mr. T. B. Clyburn, chiof clerk of tho comptroller general's cflioe, saying: "Tho appropriation of $50,000 provided for in the bill in aid of tho South Car olinn Interstate and West Indian ex position to bo held in tho city of Charleston, will not in any way inorcaso tho tax levy for 8tato purposes." Mr. Hailo's amendment was then rojcoted. Mr. do Loich of York moved to striko out tho onaoling words of tho bill. Mr. Croft of Aikon was tho first to apeak upon tho bill. Ho argued first tho lawful authority of tho State to uiako tho appropriation, and cited the constitution to sustain his position. Wo havo precedents for this appropriation. Tho oentonnial exposition at Philadelphia was graoed by an exhibit showing tho wonderful rosonroes of 3outh Carolina, her phosphato rock, her mauufaoturing enterprises, oto., and thero is ho doubt muoh Rood resulted from that. Charleston's oity oouncil has givon as muoh as tho Htato is asked for, and hor citirons havo subscribed $200,000 moro. Would it bo right for that oity to erect a building and to furnish tho exhibit for tho en tiro Htato? Mr. Harvey Wilson of Sumter, as ohairman of tho ways and moans committeo, statod that in the judgmont of tho oommittoo that was tho very loast amount with whioh tho exposition oould got along. Mr. J. C. Kobortson of Columbia, in bohalf of tho Hiohland dologation favorod tho bill. Thoro aro some poo nlo. ho said, whn nevnf had ?Anoliin. tional bairiors when such objoetirns affoot mattors whioh thoy favor. Ho thought that tho Btato ought to bo willing to givo this pitiful liulo sum of 150,000 to holp Charleston, for eho needs help more than any other part of the Btato. Mr. Morrison of I'airfiold, doolarod himself against tho bill. It is a dangerous thing for ono intorcat to over shadow all o'.hors in a Btato. Two 1iun dred years ago thoology impregnated tho governmont of Scotland, and wrought that government's downfall. Militarism was uppermost in Franco until that govornmont fell. Commercial interests are boiug put abovo everything clso in this country, and unless thero bo a halt tho nation will fail. Ho intimatod that cotnmoroial interests would kill tho ohild laoor bill. Mr. Tatumof Orangeburg', did not beiicvo in shutting the doors in the faoo of tho metropolis of tho Btato, but ho did not approve of tho last ecotion of tho bill whioh provides that tho buildings at the close of the opposition be turned ovor to tho Btato Agrioul tural and Moohanioal society to bo romoved from tho grounds within thrco months. Ho would at tho propor timo offer an amondmont to' allow tho sink ing fund commit sion to sell tho build ings and turn tho money ovor to tho Btato. Mr. Wolling of F% rfield saw that tho constitutional rbjiotion of Mr. doLoaoh oould ho easily disposed of, booaumc tho section is oapabloof moro than one oorstruotion. This b-ll would tend to build up tho waste places of tho | StatO. For tLe want of fnnrsrv and fnr I tho want of enterprise the great port of Charleston. t.uperior to any in Georgia, in almost idle. Tho Atlanta exposition did a great deal for Goergia, and tho Charleston exposition will do a groat ueal for South Carolina. Mr. Strom of Edg? field, said ho ap prcoiated the neot-siity of going oare fully with the 8tate money, but ho declared that tho State would never exrand if it kept dosed up liko an oyster. Ho diffcrod with his oolioaguo Mr. Mayson. and would support the bill. Mr. Baoot of Charleston argued the < % >... ?" " v , S. C., THURSDAY, F constitutionality ol the matter. He quoted dooibiooB of tho supreuio court ot tho I'oited States to show that np propriat;ons to expositions. cto , arc not for private good but for public weal, and therefore constitutional. Mr. llardiu nskod if congress has not appropriated $250,000 to tno exposi lion. Mr. IJtoot replied that the bill is ponding waiting on tho decision of the lcgHaturo of South O&rolina upon the small appropriation. Tho motion to strike cut tho enacting wards was then voted upon und overwhelmingly dofeated. Tho c who voted a>o on this motion and in op position to tho bill wero Messrs, Ashley, Austin, Brown, Dorrah, Dunbar, Kfird, Kibior, I-ivcr, Lookwood, Mauldin, Maypon, MoCall, MoLmgh'.in, Morgan, Morrison, Ncsbitt, Nichols, HankiD, C 10 Kobinsoo, It B A Bohinbon, Itueker, J B Sitiitli nod Wtngo Tho following favored tho bill: Spcakor Stcr orison and Messrs lfankj, Bates, Beamgurrd, Bivivens, Bloase, Bolts, Brooks, Bryau, Butler, Campbell, ( artcr, Coggosball, Coloook, Cooper, Cosgrovo, Croft, Oium, Dautzlnr, Dean, DoBruhl, Donnis, Dodd, Dominick, Durrant, Kldor, Kstridgo, Fox, Frasor, Freeman, Oaston, Oourdin, Galluchat, Guntor, liaile, Hardin, Hill, Hollis, llttmphroy, .Jatnes, .larnigan, .JohnsoD, Keels, Kinard, Kinscy.

The tirst named in caah pair was present and opposed to tho appropriation. A M EN DM ENT8 PROPOSED A number of amendments were then read, all of them evidently hostile to tho bill Those amendments wore with ono exception killed. Mr. Mason's anion linout to appropriate the $50,000 from tho Charleston dispensary profits was voted dowu So was Mr. Lylcs' to rcquiro the exposition to keep tho administration building open to tho publio froo of ohargoone day in the wock. Also Mr. Ride's and Mr. Ijiuihx'b amendments to provide for sale of tho buildings afier tho olosc of tho exposition, suoh sale to bo at public outory. The only amendment adopted was Mr. Tatum's to provide for tho sinking fund oointniision to sell tho building afttr its object is accomplished. Mr. Richards propnBod an amendment to mako tho appropriation $25,000. 11 o stated briefly that TuoBday morning ho had boon told by tho comptroller goncral that tho tax levy would bo inoroascd if tho appropriation bo mado, as Winthrop and South Carolina college arc asking for additional appropriations. Diecussion on tho amendment was out of order and tho voto was taken. The 2d who voted to striko out tho enaoting words, with thoexoeption of Mr. Kibler and Mr. Niohols, votod for tho amendment, as did Messrs. Bleaso, Butler, Freeman, Lido, MoLiod, ltiohardfl, M L Smith, K.roman and Wolla. Tho voto againbt tho amendmont was tho nan o as that against striking out tho onaoting words, except for tho abovo ohangos; also Messrs.
