Joyce, the man who pleaded
guilty to the charge of selling oleo
margarine at the recent session of
court, was sentenced to pay a fine
of $ioo and the costs. He did it
easy. The whole bill amounted to
$290.21 and Joyce offered Prothono
tary Terwiliiger his check for that
sum, but it was declined, until
j Simmers, the officer who prosecut
ed Joyce, and Judge Herring en
dorsed the check. Now Joyce is
I gone, and the check is no good. A
! bench warrant is out for Joyce, and
ne will near something if he gets
within reach of Columbia county
court acain. Since then one of
Joyce's attorneys has received
good che-:k to cover the amouut of
his fee, for which a worthless check
was first given. Simmers returned
here Tuesday, and ays he will eet
Joyce before he quits. Joyce is
supposed to be 111 Canada.
A Pert Youngster.
During the hearing in the Ruben
stein case on Tuesday, one of the
boys was being questioned and had
his fingers in his mouth, biting his
nails, and could not be heard dis
tinctly. Judge Staples told him to
stop biting his nails and to speak
louder, but the boy did not heed
the request so the Judge repeated
his remark more emphatically.
Thereupon the boy said " Whose
finger nails are these I'm bitin ? I
guess it's none of your business."
It was quite evident that the boy's
training had been neglected.
NORMAL MAY BUILD
The increasing patronage of the
Normal School, a. well as the
lengthened course of study, has
made it necessary that some steps
be taken to provide more class
rooms, especially for the science
departments. Whether an addition
will be built to the Auditorium, or
a new building erected ou the
Athletic field, is not yet determined
but it is quite sure that something
will be done soon to afford the re
quired room.
CONFIRMATION OlASS
A class of forty persons will be

ed at 8:00 and 10:30 o'clock A. m.
