ure. There a ill be a law aud order
The Blind Tiger Liquor Uw,
We learn from the Wavhaw Ku-
terprise (hat there is some discus
sioii about the liquor law iu this
county. The Walts bill distinctly
says that no previous temH-rame
legislation shall l repealed by it.
As for the special uet for this
county, it was made to catch blind
tigers and will molest no man who
dis'S not want to break the law by
selling blind tiger whiskey. To
eat eh these impudent violators of
the law this act was made strong
on purpose, and it will catch 'em,
too. The law abiding in'opleof the
county will now see to it thai the
festive blind tiger will qui! Ins
mean work or go on the chain
gang for a rest. This business is
coming to lis row's end in I'nion
county, us Judge Allen says. It
has had a long and tlourishing
reign, but the people of Monroe are
going to end it, ami the oilier com
munitiesof the county ran do the
same thing.
If a man swears out a warrant
against a sus-iccted thief for lar
ecny, the latter's premises can Is
searched for the stolen goods. This
law gives the same right after u
warrant has Im-cii sworn out by
some responsible iicrson, who shall
swear he has reason to believe that
certain person is selling liquor
unlawfully, which reason shall be
stated in the uftiduvit, ami if il is
deemed suflieienl a search warrant
is given, and If thsnsieclcd patty
is found to have more than a quart
of liquor in his possession, il shall
he evidence that he is keeping il
for sale. Now, manifestly, mi man
who is not giving evidence that he
is running a blind tiger can tie
searched, and those who are giving
such evidence ought to lie. We
lake It thai nny good citizen may
keep more than a quart of liquor
on hand for his own use if he de
sires lo and not be breaking the
law. It is the fellow who is de
liauching public morals by selling
liquor unlawfully that this law is
after.
Dogs Treed Him Quickly.
It is not often that dogs "tree" a
man in this country, but they did it
last Thursday got l ight in behind
him and "put In in up a tree," as
the 'possum hunters say. A negro
mimed Jet Met ask ill was the game.
Jet called on a colored woman over
iu llroouitown and asked her to
take a walk with him, and IsTause
she refused ho whipped out n pis
tol and shot her. The ball went
through the woman's thigh and
struck a half grown girl standing
liearbv and embedded itself ill her
shoulder. Jet started for his walk
alone and the woman nolilied the
police.
They went over, but finding thai
the ucirro had lied, scut to the
chain gang und got Superintendent
Fletcher and his dogs. The ani
mals took the trail at once and fol
lowed it into the cowntry, all the
police force and several others fol
lowing them us fast as they could.
Xo one being mounted but Mr.
Fletcher, only he got up with the
game when the dogs did. When
they pame up with Jet he was sit
ting snugly up a dogwood tree near
the Healsstrd trestle about two
miles from towu. They didn't
have to cut the tree down to get
him, but, like Davy Crockett's
squirrels, be cnuie dowu on do
maud. Court being in session, the
grind jury found a billagniust him
at onee, he was tried next morning,
and that afternoon began to serve
a year's senteoce on the chain
gaug. Quick work awl good, all
the way through.

evidence slmseil the use of a Ikm
and the employment by each side
ot mean epithets and bloody nil's

through a cotton ticld.
And there mas a well dressed,
good looking young white woman
on trial for a vile, unuaiiiable of
fense, and men sneered and grinned
at the evidence of her degradation
ami she herself seemed not to
care, licliiml these scenes were the
w recks of two families.

The next was another story of
the blight of a once happy family.

had followed her and made murder
oils threats. She gm-s lo her iieo-

children there's ulways the pity
of il nil they reiuaiu at the broken
up home.
To Is- sure such eases are old
stories iu the larger places, bu'
here they are so unusual as lo still
excite comment and challenge
pity. The remainder of the court's
time was taken up w ith the regular
inn of I he petty cases of weak mid
ignorant or vicious uegns's who
get from thirty days to two years
ou the chain gang, for stealing,

received a sentence this time which

Successor to C. E. HOUSTON.
I desire to call the attention of the people
of Monroe and Union county to the fact
that I have purchased the stock of drugs
of Mr. C. E. Houston and that I shall run
A First-Class Drug Store
in every particular. Only the best drugs
that can be bought will be used in our
prescriptions, and only the most careful
and painstaking men will be employed.
I hope that all of Mr. Houston's custom
ers will continue with the business. They
shall be accorded the same fair, faithful
and generous treatment heretofore receiv
ed. All who have not heretofore patron
ized the store are cordially invited to come
around and try us. Kespectmiiy,
