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

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

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.
