The attorney general so instructed the county board; they must wind un the affnirs on or h?fnro Dec. 31. We claim that the- board is without authority of law. A reply from Mr. Hughes I was heard; counsel has failed to cite a single case in support of his cor.- * tentions; no grounds for appointing a receiver when the property belongs to a municipality or a State. The law says you cannot sue a county in this particular case. The act clearly meant that the dispensary be closed on Dec. 31 and then its affairs be wound up. Quite a discussion nere arose between Mr. Young and Mr. '< Hughes as to the interpretation of the words of the act relative to clos- 1 ing and winding up the affairs of the 1 dispensary. 1 Judge Sease, after hearing both the complaint and the answer, together j with the argument by the attorney ' representing each side in the con- ' test, stated th$rt he would weight the 1 matter and make his decision in a day or two. HOME ECONOMICS CLUB. The Home Economics club will meet the second Tuesday in each month at 10 o'clock a. m. at the Chamber of Commerce rooms and the officers are anxious for every housekeeper in Union to become a member and unite with them in working out the vexing problems of housekeeping. The club was organized several months ago by Mrs. Dora Dee Walker, assistant State organizer, and much enthusiasm was expressed. The literature is furnished absolutely free by the demonstration agents and all the assistance possible is given the club. An erroneous idea has gained ground that dues to a considerable amount were collected each month. This is not the case. It costs VOU nothincr tn ho a moniKfl- ~1 ^ r vw "V/ ??

Albert Lacey, of Anderson, Drinks Carbolic Acid Before Bystanders Can Prevent Him. L Anderson, Dec. 28.?Albert Lacey, a white painter, aged 35, committed suicide this afternoon by drinking carbolic acid in the presence of several jt acquaintances. He had asked one of these for carfare to Belton and then jr remarked: "When I swallow this, I won't need the carfare." He swallowed the contents of the bottle and then resisted strenuously when four ^ men held hi'm so that a doctor could pour an antidote down his throat. He ^ died within 15 minutes. Lacey became despondent while talking with the acquaintances, and this is attributed as the cause of his m taking his life. He was separated sev- a eral years ago from his wife, who is supposed to be living in Columbia now. The county has taken charge of M the body. ca ~ st YOUNG BANDITS ROB BANK. ar Hugo, Okla., December 27.?Two y0 youthful bandits late today robbed the Bank of Grant, at Grant, Oklahoma, h, * A AAA L- ^ vi uui were overtaken and w] captured a few minute^ later by ch Cashier Webb, of the bank, who liberated himself from a vault, into CQ which he had been forced by the men. u.
