So Rules Judye Shipp As to "Blind Tijer" Purchasers. Anderson,February 19:?In South Carolina the buver of whiskey from a blind tiger is guilty of a violation of the law and is punishable just as( is the seller, according to a decree handed down today by Circuit Judge Shipp in dismissing several appeals from the Recorder's court of this city. The defendants, convicted in the Recorder's court of the charge of transporting contraband liquors, appealed on the ground that they were acting as agents for purchasers and that the whiskey was not contraband because it was to be used for a lawful purpose. The defendants stated that they secured the whiskey from a blind tiger, naming the man, and they merely carried the whiskey from the tiger to the pur cuasci. Judge Shipp stated that the defendants knew the whiskey was contraband when it was in the hands of the blind tiger and that its character did not change when it passed into the hands of the defendants, al-j though it may have been obtained by them for a lawful purpose. The cases will probably be carried to the State supreme court. Should that tribunal affirm Judge Shipp's order in dismissing the appeals and affirming the judgments of the Recorder's court, the blind tiger business in South Carolina will be dealt a staggering blow. ? . CLARENDON MOB LYNCHES BOY. I Prisoner Taken from ConstableUsual Verdict at Inquest. Manning, February 2.1:?A negro boy narne'd Marion Cantri, aged 17 years,was shot to death by a mob of 12 or 15 masked men at Tindall's Mills, six miles west of .Manning, about 1 or 2 o'clock this morning. The boy had been arrested for assault and battery on a young white man named Joe Mims and was sent up for trial by the magistrate at Paxville. The magistrate's constable,it is stated, started to Manning to lodge the prisoner in jail, but after traveling about four miles he was overtaken by an armed mob, which took the prisoner and 9hot him. Coroner Gray held an inquest to1 1 1 A. day but no evidence was aaaucea 101 indicate who composed the mob. i The jury returned a verdict that the deceased came to his death from gunshot wounds at the hands of "parties unknown," Poaching on 'Possum Preserves. The Columbia State warns us that Editor Wolfe, of the Kingstree Record,is poaching on our 'possum preserves. It's kind of The State, and it's mean, lowdown in Editor Wolfe. We want it distinctly understood that poaching or trespassing: upon the preserves of the Loris 'possum is strictly forbidden. We have worked hard to establish this industry in the South and have succeeded in producing a 'possum that has no equal. Its fame has gone abroad, and now that the British Parliament and the German Reichstag have passed laws exempting it from duty, we expect to do a land office business in the foreign markets. Orders are already booked from the King and Emperor, and we have assurance that the Ahkoond of Swat, who had a taste of j the Loris delicacy on board an Asiatic steamer, will include it in his private bill oi iare. So, fair warning to Editor Wolfe and all other wolves who would encroach upon our private preserves! The law is strict and we will use it with a heavy hand upon anyone who disregards this notice. Besides, we have set man-traps at1 every cross and intersection road and 16-pound rapid-fire guns are planted every 200 yards along the line. So, beware!?Lor in Metes. Surprise Your Friends.

From the dim and shadowy past there have been handed down to us some charming legends, and though we know that they are not altogether true, vet we love to think and speak of them. We have always been under the impression that the sycamore tree is a safeguard from lightning and the legend tells us the reason. As the virgin mother of Christ was on her way to visit her cousin,Elizabeth,the mother of John the Baptist, a thunder shower came up as she was traveling along the road, which led through the hilly , country of Judea.and to shelter her- ( self from the rain she stood under a sycamore tree which happened to be near by. Another sad and sweet legend is that when our blessed saviour was being whipped and scourged by His enemies, one of His persecutors stripped some branches from a willow tree which was growing near by and used them in scourging our Lord and Saviour. As the legend goes,that tree has been holding down its head ever since in shame and sorrow that it should have been used for such a purpose, and that is the reason it is called the "weeping willow." Still another legend says that while our Saviour was hanging on the cross a robin,as it was flying by, saw His sufferings and in pity tried ( to take out one of the thorns which was piercing His forehead, as it did en n Hrnn nf that sar*rpd hlond fell on its breast,and from that time the robin's breast has been red. 'On the cross the dying Saviour Heavenward lifts His eyelids calm, Feels, but scarcely heeds the trembling On His pierced and bleeding head. Stained with blood and never tiring. With its beak it doth not cease, From the cross 'twould free the Saviour. Its Creator's Son release; And the Saviour speaks in midness, 'Blest be thou of all the good, Bear as token of this moment Marks of blood and holy rood.' " I would like, before closing, for you to consider with me the death and burial of Moses. What an honor to be buried by angels! Moses led the children of Israel up to the land God had promised them, but he could go no farther?he was allowed to view this land, but not. to enter. "By Nebo's lonely mountain, On this side Jordan's wave, In a vale in the land of Moab, mere nes a loneiy grave. And no man knows that sepulchre, And no man saw it e'er; For the angels of God upturned the sod And laid the dead man there. And had he not high honor? The hillside for a pall. And God's own hand in that lonely land To lav him in the grave?" A Citizen of Williamsburg. Kingstree, February 17. Dr King's New Discovery.
