Court, which was to have been for two weeks, adjourned this morning, or, more correctly speaking, the Judge ordered a recess until next Saturday, the regular time of adjournment and Instructed Sheriff Watson to convene court on that day and adjourn at once, sine die. A number of cases set for trial at this term, were by agreement of coun sel, set for trial at the May Criminal Court, including the several suits against the Telephone and Telegraph Company, and cases Nos. 149, 152, 153 of the calendar. ' ' The last case tried yesterday was that of John Robert Tew vs. The Car olina Telephone and Telegraph Com pany, and verdict of $75. was given the plaintiff.

SHERIFF WATSON f MAKE8 A BIG FIND. Seizes an Eighty-Gallon Still and 1800 ' . Gallons of Beer. From Saturday's Dally. Last night Sheriff Watson captured one of the biggest moonshine outfits ever known to exist In this county. Accompanied by Deputy Sheriff J. C Culbreth, he pentrated the wilds of Oallberry Swamp a distance of about a mile and a half from 'Squire John Roslia Smith's, at the very head of which he found one of the most com plete moonshlnlng outfits imaginable. The proprietors of the establishment were evidently at their homes taking a few hours' Bleep, aa there waa not a soul visible, although everything was In apple-pie order for the recommence ment of operations. s.T In a small clearing stood the still, of the very latest make, all copper, and of eighty gallons capacity. So heavy Was the cap alone that one would have difficulty In lifting it Surround ing the still were eight big stands, con taining eighteen hundred gallons of beer, Just abouWirihrghTTyofiaT Won to be turned Into corn whisky. Near' ly was a large driven pump and in a . thicket waa found a pen con taining thirty or. forty beer-ted hogs. Placed In aa orderly manner about the HUH, were forty or fifty big jugs, kegs and barrels, waiting to be ; filled. Thero were also several barrels of dried peaches, ready to be turned Into peach brandy. Scattered about In different places were found twelve suits of overalls several lanterns and Innumerable utensils of all sorts. !TV aherlir , and Deputy Culbreth took possession of the still, spilled all the beer they could, and returned to town, reaching here after midnight The other stuff they did not disturb, It waa ten o'clock, when the bnV eers, after wading knee deep through the, swamp, ran upon the still, and as It Waa as dark as Egypt, It waa no pleasant job. . The thirsty in Rockflsh township will have to remain thirsty for while, we guess, or patronise some moonshiner not so handy. Marrlaae License. During the month Just ended, the Register of Deeda granted 46 marriage licenses, 30 to whites ahl lit w : ne groes. The last one granted was to Mr. J. 0. Springa and Miss' Virginia Boyd.

He "will be taken to Wit mlngton this afternoon' by Deputy United States Marshal Colvln, who will also have In charge Dave McCain, Dan Dixon, and Heman Wilson, all col ored and charged with retailing.

Fro Monday's Dally. At seven o'clock this morning, Mr, J. L. Sherwood, a patient in the High smith hospital, leaped (or fell) from the window of his room in the third story of the building and struck the pavement below with terrifflc force, and it was thought that he sure must have been killed. Though unconscious and It was thought that he must surely was not dead.-' He was carried back into the hospital and an examination disclosed the fact that besides some terrible bruises, his right leg was broken above the knee and his right arm was fractured. At four o'clock this afternoon he is still unconscious' and his condition is critical. s . . Mr. Sherwood, who several years ago was In the employ here of R. Burns ft Co., came from his home In Fork, South Carolina, Wednesday to the Highsmlth hospital, suffering with extreme nervousness from excessive drinking. At times he'was lucid, and again he would see all sorts of imag inary things, and often he would Imag ine that some one was pursuing him. Though the attending physician did not think him sufficiently cured to cut off hlB Bupply of whisky altogether, he was apparently in pretty good shape when a nurse took him his break fast shortly before seven o'clock. He was in bed and undressed. She had hardly stepped out of the room when she heard him shout for help, and rushing back into the room she found him gone. Mr. J. A. Colvln, who happened to be standing on the opposite side of the street, was the sole witness of the tragedy. He heard some one . shout for help and looking up, he saw a man in night clothes swing out of a third story window of the hospital, holding on to the window sill with one hand. He struggled a little while and with a laBt shout for help let loose his hold and fell to the pavement, nearly forty feet below, with a heavy thud.. It all happened In a second, and Mr. Colvln could but stand amaz ed anfflook on. , It is possible that he fell from the window from the fact that he tried to save himself, though it Is more likely that he imagined that he was being pursued and while under this illu sion leaped from the window. Dr. Highsmlth says that some of the stuff drunk around here produces the queerest effects upon people, but It is not strange, he says, as here are some of the beverages frequently Im bibed as substitutes for whisky: Pe runa, lemon elixir, pure alcohol, Hoyt's German cologne, Jamaica ginger, com pounds with wood alcohol in them, etc. Mr. Sherwood was quite popular whan living hem, and he haa a num ber . of friends in South Carolina, a delegation of whom came up from Dil lon this morning on reclpt of tho news, among whom were the follow ing: Messrs. W. L. and W. T. Bethea, T. L. Bass, L. C. Braddy and E. R. Hamer. Mr. Sherwood Is Dead. From Tuesday's Daily. Mr. J. L. Sherwood, who yesterday morning jumped from a third story window of the 'Highsmlth hospital, to the pavement nearly forty feet below, died at six o'clock yesterday afternoon, without recovering consciousness. His remains were taken from here to Fork, S. C, by a delegation of friends from South Carolina, who came up on the noon train yesterday, after learn ing of the terrible occurrence. His friends say that he had been drinking hard for the past twelve months, which would account for his extreme nervous condition. However, it was but a second after the nurse had left the room, and after he had eaten his breakfast and told her he was going to sleep (the nurse had been reading to him some time before brakfast), that he leaped to the window, broke through the wire screen, and shouting that something was after him, swung out of the win dow, and held on to the sill. It was at this moment that Dr. Highsmlth thinks the unfortunate man came to himself, and shouted for aid when it was too late. It may be a blessed thing that the nurse waBnoLin-the room at the time, for he might have picked her up and carried her with him out the window. He was a large, powerful man, and a most generous, good-hearted one, says Dr. Highsmlth. There was no previous Indication that the man would do anything rash, and his hallucinations seemed to be of the mild, tractable kind The deceased waa an unmarried man about 37 years of age.
