COUNT BON I WANTS DAMAGES.
for
Family's Effort to Have Suit
Divorce Withdrawn Do Not
Move, Countess.
Paris, Feb. 9. Count Boni de Castel
lane has filed a cross-Detition in his
wife's suit for divorce, in Which he
claims heavy damages from her,, ac
cording to a report which has not been
confined.
Strong efforts continue to be made
in behalf of the Castellane family to
prevail upon the Countess to withdraw
her, suit but so far without avail.
An attempt made to obtain her
assent to a judicial separation with
out an absolute divorce has also been
unsuccessful. Probably the case will
now pursue the ordinary course. It is
expected that it will be heard three
weeks hence.
According to the French law. there
is no further necessity for the respon
dent to appear unless the Judge de
cides that his evidence is essential.
The awarding of a decree dissolves
any contract relative to marriage set
tlements, each party resuming control
of his or her own property.
A divorced woman may not remarry
within ten months after the decree,
while an appeal from a decision must
be lodged within six months.

ANOTHER CIDER
DRUM III COURT
J, D. Weaver, When Arrested for
Being Drunk-Said His Jag was
Caused by Drinking Cider. A
Big Blind Tiger was Raided
Last Night.
It has been some months since any
one has appeared before the Recorder
charged with securing a jag by imbib
ing too much cider.' This morning,
however, the monotony was broken.
One James D. Weaver, who works at
the Magnolia Mills, testified in court
this morning that he purchased enough
cider from the store of Mr. L.. H. Mc.
Allister to make drunk come. Weaver
further stated that he did not drink
any liquors and the jag he had was the
direct result of drinking cider. The
man was fined $5 for the drunk and a
warrant was issued for Mr. McAllister.
The case against him will be trieI in
the Recorder's Court tomorrow morn
ing. Officers Pitts, Youngblood and John
ston unearthed a huge blind tiger early
last night. The point of operation was
on North Alexander street, between
Fifth and Sixth streets. Will Jenkins,
Ann Turner and Jiin Johnston were
found to be in charge. This morning
in the police court Jenkins and the
Turner woman went to jail in default
of bond. Jim Johnston, who is a phy
sical wreck, was allowed to go home.
It seems that Johnston and the
Turner woman have been operating a
blind tiger for many months. John
ston, wrhile bed-ridden dishes out the
liquor to all comers. Ann Turner at
tends to filling the bottles and empty
ing the jugs as they come in from
Salisbury. The officers found, in all,
about 15 gallons of all kinds of whis
key; also a dozen or more bottles of
beer.
Adele Springs, a negro girl, who
lives next door to Jim Johnston, has
been acting in the capacity of "run
ner" for the "tiger." Last night she
secured a pint of corn liquor for Gus
and Son Abernathy. The officers
found this out and the arrests follow
ed. In court this morning Jim John
ston showed his feebleness. He was
hardly able to move and his every
look indicated the real pain that he
was suffering. He told the officers that
he knew he had only a short while to
live, therefore he would tell the truth.
He, however, made no admissions that
would, in the least, incriminate any of
those under arrest. He was allowed
to retire to his home.
Just as court adjourned, an officer
walked in, escorting one Isaac Foster,
who was fresh from Salisbury with a
little short of five gallons of whiskey
The liquor was in bright, new jugs and
Foster said he purchased the entire lot
for his own consumption. This, how
ever, was not believed by the officer,
so Foster was held for examination.
Another charge, that of an . assault
with a deadly weapon, was also lodged
against Foster. .
. The Square (?) Deal.
Commenting on the outrageous
statehood Bill which has been rammed
through the House by the Republican
partisans, with the President at the
head, the Washington Post says:
"New England has twelve members
in the United States Senate, and you
may throw all New England into either
Arizona or New Mexico and it would
require a search warrant and a posse
ccmitatus to find it. Fling the six New
England States, one at a time, into
different quarters of the proposed new
State, and they might ceaselessly
tramp around for a twelvemonth with
out any one of them coming in contact
with any other one of them in their
bewildered wanderings."
If New Mexico and Arizona had been
safely Republican it would have been
much easier to carve them into four
or. more States than to unite them info
one. Such are the "Square Deal" pro
visions of the Roosevelt Administra
tion in practice. Courier Journal.

linns uiai we Know is true: that is
Crab Orchard is entitled to the blue

Apostrophe to the Hog.
You will never know the trouble and
pleasure of life until you raise hogs.
They are a bother and a vexation to
the spirit of man while they live, but
bring joy and contentment to the soul
of man when they die at hog-killing
time. The American hog, however, is
the dad-blamedest, split-hoofed, long
snouted busybody animal we ever saw
He can make a fellow madder than
other animals that infest the premises.

CIGAR TALKS.
How Woodall & Sheppard Can Sell as
Good a Cigar As the Chico for 5c.
"You want me to talk about cigars?"
said Mr. Woodall, of Woodall & Shep
pard, to a xviews reporter.
"I think the better way is to let our
cigars iaiK xor inemseives, ' ne con
tinued. "There is one cigar in our
case, the 'Wadsworth Bros.' Chico,'
which is doing a lot of talking, even
shouting. I consider our firm fortu
nate in getting the agency for it, as it
is in reality equal to any 10c. cigar,
and it costs only 5c.
"You see, we buy it direct from the
maker, and the middleman dees not
get any profit. At any rate, it is be
coming the best seller in our case, and
people who heretofore would have
notnlug but a 10c. or even 15c. cigar,
ask for a Chico, and say they like it.
. Better try one yourself and see how
good it is." - . . -
