U4 Lam gtrt Chieaco In the case of Dick Williams, a convicted retailer of spirit uous liquors in Burke county, time was of the essence of liberty, as well as of law. Williams was convicted of selling- liquor and sentenced to a term on the roads, to be worked away from his native hills on the public works of the county of Gaston Thith er he went, while hisattornevs and friends rustled 10 his be half. So well was the cause of Mr. Williams-pleaded that the Governor was convinced and on Ma- 2nd last he handed to R. L. Huffman, E-q , a pardon for his client, stipulating", however, that the latter should first pay the costs of the pros ecution. And afterwards as becomes one guilty of retailing-, who is pardoned by the arch-enemy of booze in all its forms, ramifications and idiosyncrasies remain ever thereafter 'of good behavior, sober and industrious." went back with the pardon, paid in the costs to the 'Clerk of Burke county, and the pardon was duly sent to the eriff.of Gaston. So far, so erood. But, at this ooint enters again the Governor. The Governor had seen a light. Subsequent reyelations had convinced him that the character of Mr. Williams was such that the hope of his performing the condition subsequent to the pardon a blameless life ot the tenuous filling of adream. and he granted the writ with a string- to it permitting the State to appeal. And so, yesterday the drama, con cluded in time for Christmas er?gnog-, came out of the legal hopper, Judge Brown deliyer ing the few closing remr.rks, Judge Brown was cold and brief. Incidentally he swat ted the -State for bringing such a case to the court: a habeas corpus, says he in legal parlance, is a dub unless it habeas corpuses. In other words, why discharg-e a man from custody, if he is to be held until the Supreme Court looks into the prison to see whether he is discharged or not? The judge who hears such a petition, must swing to his man or turn him loose. He can't reserve a dance, as SPURGIN-FALLS. Lieut. K. F. Spurgin and Miss A. Sr Falls Married in Washington Bride Well Known in Morganton. The following from the Wash ington Post of the 17th will be read with interest here. The bride is a sister of Mrs. C. M. McDowell, and has many other relatives and a host of friends in Morganton and the county: "Miss Augusta Shoemaker Falls, daughter of the Rev. Neil son Falls "and Mrs. Falls, was married last evening at 8 o'clock at the honae of her parents, in Hammond court, to Lieut. Horace Fletcher Spurgin, of . the coast artillery corps. Thejjarlors were decorated in red, the color of the artillery. Red roses and holly wrere used, and the bride and bridegroom stood under a bower of palms, where the ceremony was performed by the Rev. Neil- it were, or leave the decision son Falls, father of the bride. The best man was Mr. William F. Spurgin, brother of the bride groom. The sister of bride, Mrs. Cheevers Moran Barry, was mat ron of honor and her only atten dant "The wedding march from "Lohengrin" was played by Mrs. Edward Newton Macon, of Fort Washington.

Otherwise the game is delayed and the board of directors worried with trivial matters. But, coming- down to cases, the Court sustains the judge below on the merits. A par don is a pardon.

Spurgin, mother of the bridegroom, wore a black Everrlhe Governor could not call it back. It was his to g-ive; he gave it; 'twas his no long-er but Mr. Williams'. Whether the latter is really good, or whether he only awaits a chance to be bad, is not a material question. The Williams thirst cannot affect Turkish Parliament Opens New Era of Government Begun. Constantinople Dispatch. 17th. After an interval of 32 years Turkey to-day entered ui-on a second attempt at constitutional government with the inaugura tion in Constantinople of the Parliament elected under the con stitution promulgated by the Su1 tan in July of this year. The Sultan opened Parliament in person in the elaborate cere mony fashioned after the cus toms of older similar assemblies. The new legislature met in the same chamber where the short lived Parliament of 1876 assem bled. All the creeds and races of the Turkish empire sent 'their duly elected representatives. Albanians, Syrians and Arabs were among the Moslem repre sentatives, while Greeks, Armen ians and Bulgarians represented the Christian branches. Mem bers from Jerusalem and Mecca rubbed sholdiers with their col leagues from the European prov inces and the far-off Kurdish, Armenian and Arab districts on the confines of the Indian ocean.

The Governor acted. He telegraphed. When the pardon arrived in Gas ton, the telegram was already there. The Sheriff of Gaston looked at the pardon, ex amined the telegram revoking what he had, and sat tight. Wherefore he held Mr. Wil liams. Mr. Williams naturally "hollered." It may be he squalled. Anyway, he made a noise that brought Mr. Huff man running to the rescue Mr. Huffman went before Judge Justice with a writ of habeas corpus. A pardon, he said, was a pardon. Whether his client was good or bad, whether the pardon was g-ood only so long- as he was good, were now questions abstract no to say academic. He was, at any rate, yet sober; also he was industrious.

SCOTT & BOWNE. 409 Pearl St, New York Santa Claus Letters Will Not Be Deliv ered. Washington Dispatch, 17th. Postmaster General Meyer oday annouueed that he would not renew his order ssued in December, 1907, permitting" delivery to chari table organizations of letters addressed to "Santa Claus." Numerous complaints have been made to the Postmaster General -by many charitable organizations that owing to the large number of such letters taken by the various charities while the order was in force, it was possible to investigate each case, and that the presents given out fellintothe hands of unworthy persous. The practice also was objected to on the ground that it tended to make beggars of children. The Postmaster General has directed postmasters to treat the "Santa Claus" letters in accordance with those sections of the postal laws which provide that letters bearing ficticious addresses shall be sent to the divisicn of dead letters unless theaddress of the sender appears upon the envelope, in w-hich case the letters will be returned to such addresses.

He made no effort to escape and claims he was under the influence of poison ous liquor and crazy when he committed the crime. He was tried last September and con victed. He had been twice respited since his imprisonment. He was very unconcerned as to whether he lived or died. His people in Virginia had shown him no consideration. Ministers who- wished to speak to him were told that he wanted to go to hell for a purpose." He went to the gallows as cool as 'an iceberg. A chicken flew over the party while en route to the gallows and Harvey yelled out, laughing ly, "Catch that chicken," and was probably the least concerned man at the hanging. .
