W. Hamilton of this city, in a suit brought by Roy Bel lows, a merchant. The law has caused the resigna tion of about one-third of the con stables in this county, who quit rather than enforce the law. The act was . held to bo against public policy and against the con sitution, inasmuch as all the dogs in the state were not subject to the same license. It is also classed as freak legislation. It provides a tax of $1.50 on male dogs ttnd $3.50 on females in certain counties, and makes the constables liable for its enforcement and requires them to catdh 'the dogs.

Adv. 7-27-tf Start Fire Without Matches ' . Port Royal, S. C, Aug. 6 (Special) How to light a fire without matches is an important part of the training given to United States Marines at this station. The primitive flint and steel, used long ago by our forefath ers, and the old "wood friction" method borrowed from the Indians have been revived, so that the sea soldiers may dispense with matches when dampness renders thero useless. U. S. Marines in the tropics can start a fire almost instantly by using a hollow piece of bamboo. This is done by slitting the bamboo, stuffing it with dry moss, and drawing a stick to and fro across it as a violinist uses his bow. These resourceful world-wide soldiers aro expecting to find a substitute for the useful bam--o, in Frrjice. Personal And Society Miss Clara Maver of Enterprise is in town today. Miss 'S.
