DISPENSARY DIRECTORS MAKE A GOOD START Hold Up Illegal Purchases Made By the Old Board. THE LIGHT TO BE TURNED ON. A List of Goods on Hand to Be Pub? lished to Show Condition When New Board Took Charge-An Effiort to Be Made to Enforce the Law Strictly and Honestly. Columbia, arch 7.-The new State board of dispensary directors assumed control of the business yesterday after? noon, adopting a sensational set of resolutions as a starter in what prom? ise to be a highly interesting adminis tration. t The resolutions assert that "several hundred thousand dollars worth of high priced goods have been purchased by the old board with Wo, legal record of purchase" and appar? ently not ordered shipped in accord? ance with law." Therefore, the resolu? tions say, the board will employ the best counsel it can find and in the event this suspicion is confirmed "the shippers of these goods will be noti? fied that these goods here are subject to thefr orders, and the same must be removed at once." - The resolutions go on to instruct the clerk to publish a Complete invoice of the goods on hand" so that the peopk j of the State can and will see the con? dition of affairs on the 1st of Juarch, 1906. And "the commissioner is hereby I instructed not to receive any gooda ! claimed to have been bought by our predecessors in office, or any goods, now in transit; and that no goods whatever shall be ordered except goods purchased by the present board of di? rectors." The dispensary investigating com? mittee is called upon to furnish the names of any whiskey houses suspect? ed of unfair dealings with the State "so that we could hold up their bids." The request .blank feature of the law which Senator Tillman "roasted" the old board for allowing to fall into disuse is called back into, operation in no uncertain terms, delinquents in this respect to be jerked up before the gov? ernor. Another recommendation of Sena? tor Tillman is carried out in changing the form of the advertisement for bids so as to put them on a competitive basis. Senator Tillman had a confer ! ence with the new board here last week. Although the State dispensary is in j urgent need of certain lines of sup j plies only about $1,200 worth of pur? chases were made (cheap goods to supply the immediate needs). The board adjourned to meet again on the 20th, when the legality of purchases made by the old board will be further canvassed! The annual stock-taking now in progress will not be complete for sev? eral days. Commissioner Tatura esti? mates the stock on hand at the State dispensary at $400.000. Probably more than that amount is in the sub dispensaries throughout the State. Five.cars of high priced whiskey are now standing in the yards. Commis ?foTi?r Tatum having refused them. How much more ts on the r ?ad is no! ^??SS^^i?e old ^ooavd has not yeti made its report to the legisl&hre. The j only-member of the old board preTeru ? yesterday to transfer the ' usiness to the. new board was Mr. Eoykin. The new board gave out a number of clerical jobs today. M. H. Mobley was made clerk of the board to suc? ceed G. H. Charles, resigned. J. S. J. Faust of Bamberg, was general book? keeper to succeed Mobley. Miss Sadie Thrailkill of Richburg. succeeds Mis? Florence McKenzie as stenographer to the board and William F. Lamar of Columbi^, succeeds Joe L. Thorp as inspector. There was a disposition on the part of Major Black to call in the newspa? per men and have meetings in the fu? ture open to them as was done in former years, a custom the present board did away with, but the other two members were against him. With all due respect for the ability and character of Col. G sorge Johnstone, the brilliant Newberry lawyer, it may be doubted whether his savage and builyragging cross-examination of Miss Verne Sheridan in the Easty trial at Gaffney was of any benefit to his client. This lady had the sympathy of the people of Gaffney and of the jury and was a poor subject for the exploitation of Col. John stone's talents.-Spartanburg Journal. Don't Be Imposed Upon. ?Foley & Co., Chicago, originated Honey and Tar as a throat and lung remedy, and on account of the great merit and popularity <>f Foley's Honey and Tar many imitations are offered for the genuine.

It is the best laxative for women and children as it is mild and pleasant, and docs not gripe or sicken. Orino is much supe? rior to pills, aperient waters and all ordinary cathartics as it does not irri? tate the stomach and bowels. Du? nant's Pharmacy. Isle of Pines Treaty. Washington, Mar. 7.-SenatorsSpoon? er and Bacon today reached an agree? ment concerning an amendment to the Isle of Pines treaty, which is intended to protect American interests. It pro? vides that the island shall be regarded as a separate pacvince, within the meaning ot the unban constitution. This would give to the island local self .govert meut and a representative in tae Cuban ccngress when the popu? lation of the island warrants such representation. As the Americans are in the majority on the island it is un? derstood tnat the proposed amendment will be satisfactory to them. It will be offered in the Senate when tbe treaty is' taken up in the executive session. v r-Cne would think the laxative idea in a cough syrup should have been ad? vanced long before it was.

If you have used Witch Ha? zel salve without being relieved it is probable that you got hold of one of the many worthless counterfeits that are sold on the reputation of the gen? uine Dewitt's Witch Hazel Salve.

Columbia About to Lose the Pythian Castle Hall. The contest for the handsome new ; ^tate castle hall^vhich the South Car? olina grand lodge Knights of Py? thias has decided to establish at some convenient point in the state appears to have narro wed down to a rival? y between Columbia and Sumter, though the grand lodge committee authorized to receive the bids from the cities of the state had been expecting half a dozen towns to apply for the prize. This committee, consisting of the se? nior grand officers, Henry T. Thomp? son, of Columbia; George S. Mower, of Newberry, and Charles Carroll Sinls, of Earnwell, will meet to con? sider the bids on the 15th of next ! month, and will submit a report to the grand lodge meeting which is to be held in Sumter in May. Sometime ago the Columbia lodges appointed committees to get together ? to formulate a bid for Columbia, but these committees did not transact the business and the lodges are now ap? pointing new committees in the hope of accomplishing better results. Un? less these new committees do some? thing it looks as if Columbia's claim for the hall' will go by default and Sumter will win a coveted prize which ought naturally to come to Columbia. The Castle Hall is expected to cost about $20.000 or more and will be used for a sort of state headquarters, being fitted up like club rooms, and the town having the Castle Hall will stand the best chance of getting the lion's share of the grand lodge meet? ings. The chamber of commerce has taken no hand in the matter so far, likely waiting to hear from the local lodges.-Columbia Record. ?Dangers of Pneumonia. *A c?>ld at this time if neglected is liable to cause pneumonia, which is so often fatal, and even when the pa? tient has . recovered the lungs are weakened, making them peculiarly susceptible to the development of con? sumption. Foley's Honey and Tar will stop the cough, heal and strengths the lungs and prevent pneumonia. La grippe coughs yield quickly to the wonderful curative qualities of Foley'b Honey and Tar.
