The court of general session of Richland county convened in Colum bia Tuesday morning and is now down at hard work.

The acts of the Legislature for 1900 are ready to he delivered by the clerk of court to the different magis trates of the county. Millican’s Minstrels hold sway in the city tonight. They have their performance under canvas and will doubtless receive a liberal patronage. ■Mrs. W. F. Brown has received the Crosses of Honor for the Confeder ate soldiers entitled to them and would he glad for them to come for same. B. G. Kuhne, -a prominent monazite man of the city, has purchased an automobile. The machine is a mod ern one and compares favorably with the many others that now fre quent the streets of the city. A message was received in Spar tanburg Tuesday night announcing tiie death of Mrs. Jane Earle, widow of the late Rev. Thomas J. Earle. Her death occurred at the old family home at Gowansville Tuesday after noon. The uniforms for the Gaffney base ball team .arrived Wednesday. The uniforms for this season are white, trimmed in royal blue. A tasty and attractive combination has been af fected in the make-up of the suits. The work was done by the well- known sporting goods house of A. G. Spalding & Bro. Magistrate C. T. Bridges has an nounced his decision in the case of William White charged with uulaw r - fully obstructing a stream. This case and one with Rufus Ray for as sault were tried Monday. Ray was acquitted hut. the verdict in the case of White was reserved. The magis trate announces an acquittal. Prof. R. J. Herndon, of Yorkville, the well-known hand leader, lias Ar rived in the city and is now engaged in instructing the Gaffney band. Prof Herndon is a man of prominence throughout the State and South as a cornetist and leader of ability and the announcement that he is to have charge of the local band insures a creditable organization for this city. There is an excellent prosnect for some really good ball games in tills city in the near future. Negotia tions are pending with several fast aggregations and if the games are arranged the baseball lovers of Gaff ney wil] have a glimpsq of the na tional game as demonstrated by the local players. A difficulty in tiie way of suitable grounds for playing will probably be remedied in a few days. Jim Epps, a young negro hailing from Pacolet, was arrested in this city Wednesday. The arrest was made by Sheriff Thomas, the charge being a serious one—bigamy. Epps is now in jail. Epps, it se#ms, sesses more wives than it is. good for him, tbe superfluity in the number having landed him in jail. H e left a wife behind in him in Pacolet and af ter coming to Gaffney decided to wed again, which he did Sunday. Cephas Littlejohn, a young negro well known in looil fidice circles, was arranged before the mayor Wed nesday with “drunk and disorderly” staring him in the face. He had im bibed not wisely but too well on Tuesday evening and raised a rough he- in the western part, of the city. As his \isitg to the city court are too frequent for the welfare of himself and the commonwealth. i« was fined $15 or thirty days. He admitted a deeded preference to the days and is now experiencing the novelty of man ual lat;or for tiie good of the city. /A Law That Doesn't Seem to Work. (CecH Democrat.) About the only indication that li quor is not legally sold in Cecil county is the reduction In public rev enue. Drinking, drunkenness and ail the kindred evils areoniy too con spicuous, and furnish proof oosltive that Cecil’s prohibitory law does not prohibit. A large percentage of the liquor drank in the county doubtless is bought beyond the countv’s Iku- ders, but the apparent celeritv with which it is obtained suggests that it is hein# sold here in considerable quantities in defiance of law. It is impossible to prevent the sale and drinking of intoxicating liquors, and the sensible thing to do Is to license the sale and thereby control it to a degree.

AN ANCIENT DOCUMENT. Copy of Contract Used Between Visits Spartanburg and Cowpens and Landlord and Freedmer*. The following copy of a very old document will be read with interest by many of the present generation, as it throws much light on the style of contracts by our forefatners just after the great struggle between the States which closed in 18G5.

Gaffney, June 6.—It has been truly said “Peace hath its victories no less renowned than war.” This thought impresses itself on on rt who travels along Pacolet river and Lawson's hork, which three years ago today was a scene of the most disastrous floods that ever devasted this coun try. To see the magnificent bridges, cotton n.'iis and machinery of every kind that is, now standing ’along these streams, impresses one with an idea of the irrepressible pluck, ener gy and perseverance of our people. M e attended the commencement exercises at Converse College Satur day night and witnessed the tday "Ail’s Well that Ends Well.” This Play was written by Miss Perta Inez Wood, daughter of Mr. and Mw. Smith Wood. She died last winter. It was a splendid play and was wit- nessed by an immense audience. Miss Wood was an exceptionally bright girl and much beloved by her teach ers and college associates, as well as Others with whom she came in con tact. We had a complimentary tick et and were very kindly treated dur ing onr visit to the city. As full proceedings of the commencement have been published iu the leading Spartanburg papers it is not necessa ry for us to say more. Spartanburg i s a magnificent city and full of business.

He is an old Union county man who cast his lot with the progressive town of Spartanburg about twelve years ago, ami has ac quired and maintains a g(r»d busi ness. During our travels w e came across many of ou r old acquaintances, whom we have not seen for many years.
