Noti by numbers, for those in atendan« e have not filled the court chamber to over flowing by any means, but the honor lies in those who did appear. Persons of honor in ihe community, those who ar-' known—and well known at that— in Gaffney, and this item will interest many on account of the fact that they are interested in it. Their connection v-ith it. in the scribe’s eye. greatly en hances the value of this skit eui a news item.

DARBY, INSURANCE. iVeeident ’ fcSviretv Honda! chemically pure, but both in different w^vs. Betsy had posed as a dealer, a human dispensary for the juice of the corn, while Bill was exactly op posite—he drank all he could get and was present with a drunk and disor derly charge staring him in the face, j B ‘tsv is about as broad as she is long, j and it is probable that the charge against her is of the same ealibre; that is.it would appear of equal magnitude, no matter from which direction it was viewed. It seems that his honor looked at it in that light, as a fine of fifty dollars or thirty days on the gang was the result of the case. It is an undisputed fact that Bill Dawkins is a well-known character. The reason for this is not known at this time and I will assign none, al though sbveral might be advanced that; would suit the occasion equally well. He glories in the honors that he has achieved and none rise up to sav that he is not entitled to them. He has been a former colorefl preacher. He achieved much notoriety by an al liance with a band of holiness negroes. He even went so far as to actively con nect himself with that branch of wor ship. until recently it was noticed that he was no longer so intimate with them. This phase naturally caused comment and no little alarm, but when I approached the one most concerned and asked him if he had been turned out of that church he indignantly re- nlied that such was a mistake, that he had quit. As he seemed reticent and not disposed to talk on the subject, it was dropped and I did not pursue the enquiries any farther. He had taken still greater glorv unto himself by his latest deed, as recorded yesterday in the mayor’s court. It seemed that Bill had taken it. on himself to cele brate Easter by getting drunk. It had gradually shaped itself into disor derly conduct, as a result of which he was soon landed behind prison bars. His distaste to prison life w as soon aP' parent, as he objected strenuously to being committed and came dangerous ly near to having a charge of resist ing an officer registered against him. When questioned he said that he sel dom became under the influence of liquor hut that ou this occasion he thought he would celebrate Thanks giving. As Thanksgiving is some dis tance awav and Easter had just made its anpearance. he undoubtedly meant the latter. He was positive that he would not have become under the In fluence of drink even then had it been in a normal condition, hut h e was ab solutely sure that it had been salted. Just what effect the said salting would have I do nor know, as we have no data on that subject. From the testimony of Bill it was gathered that in his opinion salting would increase its powers of intoxication. Bill was fined fifteen dollars or thirty days on ♦he gang. He was given his choice of the town crew or the county roads on which to spend the thirty days. He chosp the town crew, who are a work the town crew or the county roads on which to spend the thirty days. He chose the town crew, who are at work upon the citv streets. He has in the nast had experience on the county chain gang, but whether this has any thing to do with his choice of course cannot he said. B. B. Pithy Paragraphs.

Vudor Porch Shades make this possible; they keep out the hot sun, but admit the cool, refreshing breeze. They can be instantly raised or lowered, witli very little effort. They are light, but exceedingly durable, being constructed of thin strips of Linden wood fibre woven witli the strongest seine twine. Their moderate price puts them within the reach of everyone who can afford to have a porch at all, The cost is insignificant in comparison with their utility and the added comfort and pleasure they afford. Think of the many pleasant hours you can spend on your porch during the hot, stifling days in summer if it is equipped with these shades ! And then ask yourself, can you afford to be with out Vudor Porch Shades this summer? Then in connection with Shades you should have a Vudor Hammock—the best made. Come and see them.
