1THE LIQUOR CASE.
Interesting Matter Broi
Up in Magistrate's Cour
Two gallons of liquor in sii
wicker jugs caused a very inte
ing case to be heard in Magis<
W. W. Johnson's court last T
day. It was a claim for deli
directed against Chief of P
Austell by Mr. J. W. Mclxirsc
Buffalo for the delivery of
gallons of whiskey which Mr.
Larson had purchased in Spar
burg and transported to Unioi
the night train. On arriving 1
he was arrested and brought Ix
the mayor and the liquor was h
into the possession of the po
He brought action to recover
liquor, claiming that he had a
feet right to buy the liquor, ae
testified without contradiction
I hi: wugiii vnu liquor at tne
pcusary in Spartanburg, aiu
carry it to his homo for his
personal use.
Every inch of the case was 1
fought. The introduction of cei
evidence was contested strongly
| several exceptions were taken
the ruling of the magistrate,
chief of police was representei
i the city attorneys, Seaife it Ha
llin, and the plaintiff by Messrs
! F. Townsend and J. (loi
! Hughes.
Mr. McLarson when on the si
as the first witness for the plai
simply told how he went to Spar
burg and bought his liquor, ret
p ing with it that night. Gcttini
? the train, he was detained
surrounded by three policemen
; took him by the arm and tool
jugs away. "1 don't see what
want to hold me for," said
McLarson to the policemen,
ain't stole nothing, I ain't k
I nobody, an' I'll just walk on
you."
The evidence showed that
Larson was not a drunkard
that he had not been to Spar
burg but once before; it sh(
that he was not a blind tiger.
The question as to whethei
whiskey had come from a I
tiger or the state dispensary
discussed minutely by the attori
the defendants claiming that 1
dispensary liquor the jugs
have a certificate and seal atta
instead of a mere tin foil ove
cork. Dispenser Howell tesl

~ the court room when he dcclai
Bun- that ti e largest amount he had o1
I8- sold to one man at one time wh
anta, was. dispenser was "30 qua

The defendants failed to sin
that McLarson's liquor was conti
band and as the whole ease depen
mess c(^ ^ that point, the plaintiff's j
torneys asked the magistrate to c
Jhar- rect a verdict for McLarson. whi<
city was done, as the circumstances
the case permitted.
>ncs- Immediate possession of the whi
ulav ^ey was no^ S*ven as a motion f
new trial was made and therefo
five days will elapse before it wi

mgh i,0 given over to McI.4ir8on or no

signed the verdict. The jury wc
composed of J. C. Copeland, It. A

Dog Tax.
Tift) county treasurer has a notice
running in this
_ _ jn.^1 Oil MIC (log j
tax. We tako the liberty of Haying
that wc think it the duty of every
school trustee to see that every dog
in his district be returned and tax
paid on every dog, Ijecausc every
dollar raised in this way goes to the
support of the schools, and the
more dog tax you got the more
money you will have for your
schools. So be wide awake and
see that every one who owns a dog
pays the tax, whether the dog is
worth it or not.
