We will publish the testimony from week to week, but it will take! several more installments toj compieie u. The testimony in the recent dispensary investigation was taken verbatim by Miss Mary W Riser of Newberry, who is here completing a course in telegraphy.

UgUbljr WUIUO IU . WUiiuvi J Vi vw tions. A woman without a new Eaister hat is to be sympathized with by the most callous and cynical bachelor heart; and from the stock of millinery poods 1 displayed in Kingstree by our enterprising merchants we doubt not that every fair lady in Kingstree or accessible to the town will adorn herself with a 1 "becoming" hat ere the glorious ' Easter dawns. The . Kingstree Dry Goods '1 Company, whose millinery de- 1 partment is presided over by , Miss Mena Brewington, has a 1 beautiful line of hats and , trimmings, including the "merry widow" hat?which is the J rage in New York city. It would [, be bard to imagine a prettier ' lot of goods ot tbis class than , Miss Brewington is exhibiting ' at her opening. Picture hats, pattern hats and dainty gauzy effects in form ; and fabric mark tbe ensemble of , Mrs S Marcus' Easter open- ; ing. A mere man is scarcely capable of judging this class of merchandise, but the richness ( and artistic finish of Mrs Marcus* Easter offerings speak for themselves. , Mesdames Gale A: Gale, on Rast Mr,in stwt. while newlv established here, show themselves to oe experts in the mill- i inery art and the taste and Sn- j ish of their beautiful hats appeal to the most casual observer. They have a very neat and ^ attractive place of business and display the same taste and skill { in the arrangement of their goods as in trimming their hats. < In personally selecting her < stock of milliner}' and spring j goods Mrs J S Eron was fortu- 1 nate in securing the latest and most stylish effects judging from the display of hats and trim- ^ mings at her "opening" yester day. Mrs Eron has a number and variety from which one * could hardly fail to make a ! selection. Her picture hats are v from the latest models and ( make a pleasing show. s In millinery and dress goods ( we doubt if there is a town of equal size in the State that can ' coftipare with Kingstree and it j is well worth while to visit the the stores and see the splendid j array of goods brought here by , our up-to-date dealers. ~ ~ 1 Court Proceedings (Concluded.) ( The following cases were dis- ( posed of last week in addition to those already reported: The State vs Joshua L Evans, ^ housebreaking and larceny, guilty with recommendation to ^ mercy. W F Clayton, Esq., of . Florence, conducted the defense and E L Hirsch, Esq., assisted in the prosecution. The sent- 2 ence imposed was six months on \ !SS GCX - - For T fSDAY an r Spring election, we are prepared to ioods Gc the chaingang. Evans is a white man living near Take City and I the alleged crime was stealing 1 less than one dollar's worth of I fodder and oats. He was con- I vie ted at the last term of court, I but his counsel made a' motion I for a new trial and4/obtained it. In some respects this was a remarkable case, x j Pleasant D Lee, charged with obtaining goods under false pretences, was acquitted. He was represented by Messrs Lee and Askins. Julia McBride and Sallie Nesmiih were convicted of larceny of live stock. On motion of E L Hirsch, Esq., who represented the defendants a new trial was granted Julia McBride. ? Only two jury cases were tried I in tbe court of common pleas, viz, tbe case of the Enterprise E Wood Distilling Co. and that of A. Graham against the Pied- __ mont Mutual Insurance. In tbe first suit a verdict was render- w id for $2,000 in favor of the d plaintiff and in the second the p jury found $600 against the defendant company. The case against Robert Barr, the little negro who- was charged witL) house-breakingand larceny and assault and battery, was no! prosed on account of the boy being under six years of age.
