DISPENSARY NUN SAYS HIS SUES ARE PICKING UP The North Augusta dispensary sold SBSO worth of whiskey yesterday. That is hardly an average Saturday's business, though better than it has been several times. An official of the dispensary tokf a Herald reporter last night that to his certain knowledge certain Augus ta "blind tigers" are accustomed to send representatives to the North Augusta bridge, with instructions to Intercept prospective purchasers of whiskey at the dispensary and turn them toward the illegal places of salt on this side of the river. About two weeks ago the dispens ary salts began to pick up. The in erease is attributed to tin monthly, exodus of Carolina farmers to mar ket. Most of the dispensary trade is with country people, for the business from Augusta has dwindled down to he of very small consequence. The dispensary opened about the first of I!RI8. For the first eight months it did a .and office'' business. Then sales began to fall off and the decrease continued, up to two weeks ao, but the slight pick-up which be gan to he noticed about that time Is probably accounted for correctly by the dispensaries, in their explannt ion, stated above. In its palmy days, the dispensary, frequently sold as much us $2,000 j worth of liquor on Saturday. Now Its sales on that day hardly ever run above SOOO. The lowest Saturday on record brought In SOOO CLIMAX (SHIER TO HAVE HEARING Special to The Herald. MACON, Gu.

Georgia for the Capitol City Route, and Judge Eve, who is a member of the executive committee of the Geor-j gla Good Roads Assaeiation, will no doubt, he present and have something j Interesting to sav in regard to tho matters to lie discussed.

C.—That military commandants assigned to college duty by the war department consider J themselves equal to the college presi -1 dent in authority or above him, was j one of the reasons given today by j Dr. P. H. 4 Mell for his resignation yes j terday from Clemson Agricultural Col : l"ge. Dr. Mell issued a statement in j which he said that lack of ciearness !in the college rules prevented the ' military commandants from realizing i that they were not the college presi j den*’s equal in authority.

The board refused to accept Dr. Mell’s resignation and called a meet ing for August 12 to consider the situ a ..ion. NATIONAL LEAGUE batted McQuillan hard.
