TRY OUR SERVICE
The first case of arrest and prosecu
tion to come under the provisions of
the local option law In Union county
was made last evening when a man
named Ed Thompson was arrested
for disposing of beer to employes of
the O. R. & N. In the blacksmith
shop of the local round house.
Information gleaned from officials
of the company, resulted in Constable
I. W. Faulk going to the blacksmith
shop -and making the arrest. The
man was held In the city Jail last night
and today arraigned before Justice
Angus Stewart on two charges, one
charging the defendant with selling
and giving beer to one Anderson, a
blacksmith. The other charge was
Identical, except that the man named
as recipient of the forbidden drink
was John Keeney. . Before the court
Thompson pleaded guilty to giving
the beer away. On motion of Prose
cutor Hodgln, one charge was dis
missed. Tolls IIU Story.
Before pleading Thompson told bis
story.
"You see, judge, we had been flop
ping In de Jungles nnd had to corns
to town to get some chuck. We hid
de four bottles of booze In de grass
back of do railroad shack while I
went In to get de stuff. When I comes
back we all took a pull at de beer,
and while we were doing it, dem guys
In de blacksmith shop waves der
mitts at us to come over. Well, I
thinks how dem guys were swettin'
in de warm place and how sumo booze
would Uo em go. ul, over I goe.1'
"How often did you plve it away,"
came from rrosc-eutor Hodgln.
"Well, you (iee. .1ud;u. we had two
bottle, nnd I takes do first load.
When It got around, all ih-m mug

To Launch, South Carolina.
Washington, July 10. Another
mighty battleship will be added to
Uncle Ram's navy tomorrow, when the
South Carolina, a sister ship of the
new Michigan, will be launched at the
Cramps shipyards at Philadelphia.
Imposing ceremonies will mark the
event. . Later the vessel will go to
Charleston. 8. C, where the people of
the state for which It Is named will
hold a great celebration.
The South Carolina and Michigan
represent the Initial attempt of the
United States naval officials to con
struct a type of vessel, the principal
a!i4aH of wMK - rrvln nt mm
many guns of even calibre as her dis
placement will permit.
The new ship, like the Michigan,
has a displacement of 16.000 tons,
making It slightly less powerful than
the vessels of the British Dread
naught type, which have 17,000 tons.
It is alleged by experts, however, that
the South Carolina will be able to
fire as many guns broadside as can
be fired from the five turrets of the
Dreadnaught.
