Darlington Bobs to the Front with a Breach of Promise Sensaion. Darlington begins the new year with just the choicest, sensation of the sCtisou in tho Bhnpo of a suit for
:'s
breach of promise brought by Mrs. Ida Durham against Stephen G. Kersey. .The defendant is a member of the drug firm of KerFey & Booher and is among tho best, known business men in the county. Miss Durham is a comely young woman of that town against whom the tongue of scandal has wagged viciously for some months post, In hor complaint Miss Durham alleges that at one timo Steve professed to lovo her with almost cannibalist ardor. She relates how he would steal his arm around her delicate Coralino corset, draw her impulsively to his manly breast and nearly smother her with, kisses. That one stormy night in the beautiful spring time, under the promise of marriage, with tho man in the man in tho moon as .tho only witness,. Stevo accomplished hor ruin. Time sped on and Stevo's love grew colder and colder until it became as but a flit of frost. She plead with him to keep his promise, but in vain, Sho then grew desperate and threatened to bring suit. This method proved just the "article,' for Stevo came quickly forward and kneeling at her thrbno everlasting fidelity. One night Stevo brought a physician friend along 1c tho houso and under the guise of examining her condition an abortion was performed, upon her recovery Steve again grew cold. Another threat brough him onco moro to her sido and it was currently reported that cold cash squared matters. The scandol was fast dying out when tho young lady came to this city city Monday morning and employing Wright fc Seller brought suit for 85,000 damages for breach of promise. Mr. Kersey's reply is awaited with interest by his many acquaintance here.
Bullfoot's Tough Luck.
ilham Kernoodle, moro familiarly and properly known as "Bullfoot" and "Butch,'' was brought before tho court Wednesday to answer to tho charge of stealing a pair of spectacles from 'Squire Cumberland v. bile acting as best man at the Andy Snay-Lou Alley nuptials a tow weeks ag... Butch swore that Lou Alley, tho briuo stole the glasses and gave them to him as a sort of recogni tion for his services, while tho Alley woman denied all knowledge of the theft. Tho evidence of the witnesses proved conclusively to the jury that 'Bull" was tho guilty man and ho was sentenced to threo years in the poni tentiary and disfranchised for five years. Tho caso against Mrs. Shay was then oil led and uho was turned loose to seek the husband from whom sho was sepatated a few hours after tho ceremony by being ruthlessly thrown in jail. But the festive Andy had evidently repented of lnp hasty marriago for he skipped out several days pgo and Lou will havo to content herself by going it alone.
The Snake Hospital Closed. Last Wednesday Dr. D. D. Riddl® brought suit in the circuit court to have a receiver appointed for tho defunct Southerlin Institute to sell off tho prop-*'-'k erty, furniture, old gold on hand and medical apparatus. It appears that the "jaggery" was closed several days for want of patronago and Dr. Sutherlin had removed his effects back to Lado-' ga, from whence he drifted. It seems that these institutes have a mission, which when once performed, their usefulness ends. The institution was founded to cure the drunken "sots" of Crawfordsville. Some 26 or 30 took advantage of it and were cured—-somo of them temporarily and 6ome permanently it is hoped. As there were no other conquests in sight, business ceased, tho partners quarreled, and a suit for a receivor instituted.
