Judge's Able Charge to Grand Jury?Cases Disposed Of. The fall tei'm of the court of general sessions opened here Mondav morning at 10 o'clock with Judge T S Sease of Spartanburg presiding The term was especially interestirg made so by the dignified manner ir which the session was conducted anc the executive ability with which the presiding Judge dispatched the bus iness of the court,with the assistance of the local officers and Stenographer Wood of Sumter, whereby at least one day's time and expense were saved to the county Judge Sease in presenting the various bills to the grand jury prefaced his remarks to that body with b bri^f but eloquent address upor their duties and responsibilities, es pecialiy stressing the importance ol the law and its application to the criminal who sought to molest the peace and happiness of the home 01 to lawlessly trespass upon the rights of the individual citizen. The law caid thp .Tildes was made and Dro vided for the protection of the tax payers, and that it was the duty ol grand jurors to see to it that such protection was given by bringing tc justice those who would disregarc i the laws guaranteeing protection t( every citizen in the pursuit of pea? and happiness. During the term the followinj ' cases were brought before the cour and disposed of "with fresh alacrity and force renewed": In the case of the State vs J Na than Floyd, charged with breach o: trust with fraudulent intent, on ? warrant sworn out by the Singei Sewing Machine Co, defendant wa! found not guilty by the jury.

Baseball at Cades. r Cades, October 2:?The local base. ball team was defeated on its grounds last Friday by the Kingstree High school team in a slow, ragged, yet enthusiastic game. The game was called at 3:30 o'clock by Umpire Blakeley. The Cades bunch was out| classed and they realized it from I the start, yet they put up a orave fight and never let up during any I stage of the game. McGill, who , did the twirling for Kingstree, was , too much for the Cadites. He did not succeed in striking out many of the men, but they were unable to slug his balls. Very few were knocked out of the diamond. Knight for the locals started off in big league style but soon slackened his , pace and after one inning's work he was shifted to third base. He was relieved by McElveen who put up a nice pitching exhibition but was unable to check the sluggers from Kingstree. SPECIAL NOTICES Phone us when you want to get a notice under this I heading.
