LAWBREAKERS PUNISHED. City Treasury Strengthened ami New Add) tlons to the t.ang. After a considerable rest in the work of dispensing justice Mayor Littlejohn varied the monotony a little Monday morning by passing sentence upon a few law-breakers.

I Hu occupations. fortunes never come singly, it fell to Will's lot to pay a fine of five hard- earned dollars or serve fifteen days under Capt. Thackaton. All this in addition to a drunk on “Tfi,” which, In itself, is as much of a‘‘misfortune” as any common man ought to want. Dock Winn was next on the list of offenders. Dock had been Indulg ing in the youthful sport of firing a pistol just to make a noise and to “hear it shoot,” and as he was having this fun within the city limits he was hauled up before the city’s chief executive to receive punishment for bis offense. This punishment was in the shape of five dollars or twenty-five days on the gang. Dock forked over the dollars; and the next time he wants a little pistol practice he will probaWj go beyond the city boundry line to have his sport. Lum Whitesides next paid six dol lars for some disorderly conduct in which he had been engaging. Lum claimed that be was not guilty of the charge; but the evidence was too strong, and he was fined accordingly. William Patton, white, brought up the rear with the same charge against him, that of disorderly conduct. He was fined six-fifty or twenty-five days in the service of the city. He was unable to pay the dollars, so he had to take the days, and began on his term that same day. “Tooch” Glenn is again In limbo. He had just finished serving a long term in Asheville, N. 0., and had only been at home a few days, when his propensity for “acquiring” a living without work got the better of his will power or his fear of detection and punishment, and he straightway proceeded to take unto himself some things that belonged to another. Either that, or he bad become charm ed with life on the “gang” and wanted to go back again. Any way, he was brought before the mayor a few days ago to answer to a charge of petit larceny, and as his “answer” was not at all satisfactory to His Honor, he was required to pay au X in Uncle Sam’s currency, or work twenty seven days for the benefit of the city. “Tooch” was entirely out of funds, as a matter of course, and he is now doing time under the street overseer. There were only two offenders be fore Mayor Littlejohn yestttday morn’ng, and only two dollars^paid into the treasury. George Corry^nd Bob Lyles were up for swinging on the curs while they were in motion. Each one was fined $1.00 or ten days on the street, and they both paid the dollar. HICKSON, THE ORATOR. Son of a Gaffney Minister Takes First Honor la Orltorlcal Contest. A large audience crowded the audi* torium of the Judsou Memorial Hall Friday evening, March 8th, to wit ness the most hard fought battle in oratory Greenville has ever seen. At 8:30 o’clock the speakers appear ed on the etage ready for the presid ing pfflcer, President McClain, of the Adelphian society, to announce the first contestant. The program for the evening was as follows: . Music. A. P. Hickson—In a court room. A. J. Graham—A voice aud not au echo. Music. W. W. Coleman—The race prob lem. 8. M. Wolf—The evolution of the American constitution. Music. B. L. Blackwell—Aircastles vs reality. E. B. Rice—Choice of motives. The judges were: Dr. C, 8. Gar dener, Rev. A. R. Mitchell, Col. J. A. Hoyt, Capt. J. A. Mooney and T. P. Cothran. It was sometime before the judges could decide the winner of the contest. At last Dr. Gardener announced in a brief speech that they had decided in favor of A. P. Hickson, with 8. M. Wolf second. Mr. Hickson is a member of the se nior class in which he is taking a good stand. His speech was one which showed deep study of the courts and was de livered with the most perfect style Furman has ever known. The State orltorlcal contest will meet in Chester on April 20th and Mr. Hickson is to represent Furman University in this contest. Each one of the young men who spoke did credit to himself and to Furman. Their speeches abounded In sound, practical thought, indi cating thorough preparation and study. CasiMi Nonsuited. Nothing much was done in court this week, and very little last week. On Monday the two cases of the Perrys against the Carpet Mill were nonsuited, and there being no more business to occupy the attention of the court until the following Friday (today). Judge Townsend deemed it advisable to adjourn court altogether. Accordingly, this was done, and their will be no more court until next June. Judge Townsend went to his home in Union Tuesday. A Good Cough Medli-luo for Children. “I have no hesitancy in recommen ding Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy,” says F. P. Moraif, a well known and popular baker, of Peters burg, Va. “We have given it to our children when troubled with bad coughs, also whooping cough, and it has always given perfect satlafactioii. It was recommended to me by a drug gist as the best cough medicine for children as it contained no opium or other baimful drug.” Sold by Chero kee Drug Co. KILLING IN SPARTANBURG. One Itarher Slnjra Another nt Their Sweet heart'* IIoiinc. Hpartanburg ha-i had another shooting scrape. This time an in dividual of color did the perforating act, and the result was, a dead negro. Madge or Major Cunningham and David Gilliard, two colored barbers of the city, were both infatuated with a dusky damsel by Ihe name, real or professional, of Ida Clark. They met up Sunday night at the house of their sweetheart, and Cunning ham proceeded with a “forty-four. ’ At the coroner’s inquest the evi dence was conflicting, some of the witnesses claiming (hat the shoot ing was accidintal, and otlieis that Cunningham “didn’t know it was loaded.” GillLrd made a ton- fession, however, before ho died, In which be stated that the acci dental part was not true and that the killing was purposely done. Gilliard was shot through the bowels with a 41-calibre pistol ball, and died at one o’clock Tuesday af ternoon. Cunningham is in the Spartanburg jail. ItiHliop Itounil Over. The negro who stole Dr. Pott’s horse and buggy in Spartanburg last Friday night, and who was captured here Saturday and sent back to Spartanburg, has had a hearing be fore Magistrate McGowan, in that city, and been bound over to court. He is now in jail and will probably not take another buggy ride for a long time. The Spartanburg papers say that Bishop, the real name of the negro, is a man of bad reputation, a notori ous thief and as desperate and vicious as he is depraved.. The thief had disposed of the med ical case and surgical instruments when he was captured, but Dr. Pott’s has succeeded in recovering some of them. George W. Waitt, of South Gar diner, Me., says: “I have had the worst cough, cold, chills and grip and have taken lots of trash of no account but profit to the vender. Chamber lain’s Cough Remedy is the only thing that has done pny good what ever. I have used one bottle of it and the chills, cold and grip have all left me. I congratulate the manu facturers of an honest medicine.” For sale by Cherokee Drug Ct. For Rent. fc# Advertisements under this head will be inserted for one cent a word each inser tion.
