There is a Crowded Calender, and Hardly Tliird of Cases Ready for Trial will l.ikely l>e Disposed of. . The court of Common Pleas for ' 1 terry county will convene here on next Monday October 23rd, Judj/e K'Miest (Jary presiding. The jury list to serve at this court was pub lished some weeks ago. There are thirty four cases 011 the civil docket to be tried by a jury, besides the 211 Ourant cases. The roster as.arranged by the attorneys of the bar of cases which will be tl ied is as follows: 1. Donahue & Melson vs. Insurance (Company. 2. Durant oa?os (2!) of thorn.) 'h S irah J. Lewis vs. D.

Tin' six above named will likely take up all the time of the court, and there will be fourteen eases or more that cannot be tried It is different in Horry now davs since the era of prosperity and growth struck the town and the county. Short courts used to be more than sufiicient to dispose of the business. A lar^e new court house and longer and more frequent, terms are needed now. and some change will have to he made. Six I.umber Concern. The Southport Herald says: "Hapt. W. A. Sanders informs us that an enormous saw mill is to he built in the near future in the lower end of the county near Little Kivor. The projectors of the concorn recently went down on the Coinpton to complete arrangements. The name of the firm to build the plant is Messers. Hammer vt Co- of Philadelphia. Thov have bought in the neighborhood of HO,000 acres of timber land, and expect to ship all their product by light draft schooners by the way of Little River.?The Wilmington Star, ? ? Groundless Complaint. ? Wo are requestd by Mr. W. K. Holt, the now Country Supervisor say that some complaints recen tly made in reference to the blood hounds used in the recent trouble at Cool Sping, are groundless. It -seems that it was reported that the blood hounds had been purchased by Mr. Holt at the expense of the county, but the fact is that two of the hounds were purchased by Mr. Holt with his own private funds some time before he went into ollice. He had purchased them and Edmonds from whom he bought them came down to deliver them at the time of the occurrence at Cool Spring. The two hounds are the personal property of Mr. Holt and he freely gave the use of them to the county in an atempt to ferret out the perpetrators of the shooting at Cool Spring. - ? ? I lcpliant Helps the Canvassinen. Mary, the big elephant with the John 11. Sparks Shows, is not only the best trained, but the most intelligent and docile in America.
