POPULAR EVERYWHERE. Beginning with a small local sale in a retail drug store, the business of Hood's Sarsaparilla has steadily in reased until there is scarcely a vil lge or hamlet in the United States where it is unknown. To-day Hood's Sarsaparilla stands at the head ini the medicine world, admired in prosperi ty and envied in merit by thousands of would-be competitors. It has a larger sale than any other mediciee before the American public and prob-I ably greater than all other sarsapa rlas and blood p~urifiers combined. Such success proves merit.

Manning's First Whiskey Tr Under the Dispensary Law. Manning has at last had a whiskey trial under the dispensary law, and the result was a victory for the sight less tiger. In the language of another who was present and heard the evi dence it was a "victory over law." Upon information and belief Mr. S. A. Nettles made the affidavit charging Jake Plowden, colored, with selling whiskey on the 20th day of December last, and named in the affidavit T. A. Johnson and H. L. Tobias, both white as witnesses. Trial Justice Thumons issnted the warrant and Plowden was arrested last Friday. The trial was set for the next day at twelve o'clock, but when the hour arrived the witnest ses had not come in and the case was set for six o'clock in the evening. This being the first case considerable inter est was manifested, esveciallv among the colored people, the court house yard was full of them all (lay, and when evening came one side of the court room was packed. There was also present a number of white men. Considerable difficulty was had to obtain a jury, and this de layed the proceedings. Finally a.iury was secured composed of Messrs. P. B. Mouzon, foreman, E. B. Gamble. G. W. McCall, Alfred Dyson. Ashby Bell, nd W. T. Lesesne. B. Pressly Bar con, Esq., and A. Levi, Esq., represent d the accused. At the outset Mr. Barron objected to the trial of the de 'endant by a jury of six, claiming as a ,onstitutional right that twelve men ust compose a jury. This motion vas over-ruled. He also made a mo ion to quash the indictment on the ,round of there being no charge, laiming that an affidavit on informa ion without giving the source of that nformation was no charge. This mo .ion was also overruled, and the case roceeded. The first witness was H. L. Tobias de swore positively that on the 26th lay of December last he bought from Fako riowden a lait-pint of corn whis ey, and paid twenty-tih e cents for it. ['hat T. A. Johnson was present and law the purchase made. The trans tetion took place in Manning in Leah ?rince's restaurant' He also produc d a half niut flask with the dispen ary label upon it. The flask was hree-fourths full. He said that ?lowden filled the flask from a quart >ottle. Upon cross examination he reiterat d the transaction, and acknowledged muder the questioning of Mr. Barron hat lie haa taken several drinks of >ther liquor lie had on that day. Ie said t.he liquor in question as in his possessica ever since and hat be had never mentioned any hing about buying the liquor to any >ne until after he was brought up as witness. His manner showed evi lence of trying to conceal the man hat gave the informa.tion, which was he basis of the. prosecu!ion. This ffort had the effect of weakening his estimony, and the attorneys for. the lefense lost no time to make the most f it. T. A. Johnson was the other witness nd his testimony was brief and posi ive. He swore that he was present i the 26th day of December last and aw Plowden sell Tobias a half pint liquor, that the stuff was poured ut of aouart bottle into a half pint ask and saw Tobias pay Plowden wenty-five cents for it. This was the estimony for the State. The defense put up no witnesses nd Solicitor Wilson representing the tate at the request of the prosecutor nd the board of control went to the ury. His speech coverei the -testi nony clearly and he appealed to the ury to not al!ow prejudice to sway hem, they had an oath-bound duty to >erform and as good citizens they hould perform that duty whether hey approvedi of the law or not. -The rgument forthe defense wats opened >v Mr. Levi, He studiously doided ~calling the attention of he jury to Mir. Johnson's testi noy, but laid c-onsiderable stress to he apparenlt inconsistent statement >f Tobias. and when he said that lhe elieved Tobias lied, the negroes in he audience broke out with a demon tration of delight which caused the 'rial Justice to order his constable to o among the audience wit h instrue ions if the demonstration was epeated to. bring thme offeniders to him or punishment. At the conclusion of Mr. Levi's ar ~ument Mr. Barron made the closing peech. He also left Mr. Johnson's' ositive statement in the cold and fed he jury with a dish of eloquence that was seasonedl with what he termed the nonsist statement of Tobias, and the ack of alcohol in the flask. At the conclusion of the arguments he Trial Justice charged the jury with Se lawv and told them that the official ec as not before him but the law mblished in piamphlet form which he ad from, was the law- The'jury re i-red and after being out some little ie returned with a verdict of not ~uilty. When the verdict was announced he negroes in the court room biroke ut with a round o[ applause. The Lheering continued until the c.rowd tot into the st reet. To say the least of it the scene was most disgraceful-one and we would uggest -that the trial justice n the future preserve more rder in his comrt. Jake Plow len entered the court houise a weak mnd trembling creature, but when. he eft it, he was a hero nois considered o alone by the ignorant rabble, but le approving smiles of some .white nen who are opposed t'o the dispen ary on account of politics gave this rave this man every reason- to believe 1s having scored a victory in riolating one of the State's laws and lefeating the objects of the prosecu Some peope may be under the im >ression that juries in Manning will iot convict for violations of the dis ensary law, but they will find them ~elves mistaken and that as soon as he very next haul is made. There mre some men in this town that op. ose the law from a political stand oint and otherwise, but at the same ~ime they are law-abiding citizens and f proper evidence is placed before them ,e had as soon see them on a jury as he most ardent supporters of the law. Violators of law dont beguile your elves into believing that convictions ii fail because the State failed last saturday night. The next ease may ye so convincing in every particular bat a conviction is sure to follow. The failure to convict last Saturday ight wfms not becanse of opposition, >ut on account of a witness unaccus omed to court proceedings and to ;hield the informant told a story hich had so much the appearance of nconsistency as.to create a doubt on he minds of the jurymnen. If there tre any blind tigers in the county they ad better close their (dens, even if hat den is encased in a little hand ~atchel being swung bytthe hand.after :he maniner of a barber visiting his ustomers. Jake Plowden had a close have but the next fellow will get a thave and a clip thrown in for good nmeasure. Look out! A Sad Farewell The following is the valedictory of m Alabama paper thiat flourished (?) n a town where talent was not appre riated. It is something in the nature y a talc of woo.

The barn was tilled with hay and fodder, and nothing could be done to save any thing from it. It is supposed that the house was set on fire by some mean person who owed Mr. Jones a grudge. INone of the houses were in sured. Our advice to General Hampton is, to quit monkeying with Stokes and Evans. They are but youthful aspir ants of the alliance order, yet they feel deep. Ha, ha, ha, now really! Didn't they skin General Hampton in great big patches. Wonder if he don't feel mighty sore about it? The young people of our community have organized a string band which meets twice a week to practice. -Let's have that alliance rally of *hich the Times spo ke last week The times are suitable for such a rally, and we would be glad to see it. The alliance has done a great work, and it should be kept contindally be fore the people. The people need to be educated on all the great issues of the day, and no better method can be employed than that of frequently meeting and mingling together in grand rallies where the current issues of the day are discussed. People are busy endeavoring to make satisfactory arrangements for the present year. We do not think that the extension of the time for the payment of taxes was right. If the tax books are going to remain open for one half the year, why is it that the Legislature does not pass a law to that effect and be (lone with it once for all ? The exten sion does not benefit the poor man one iota, for he has already paid his taxes jong ago. Then who does it benefit? The rich-man, the man who is able to pay his tax at any time. The weather for the past few days has been real spring-like, and if it strould continue thus for many days several parties will begin to plant seeds for an early garden. We have been requested to state that an amateur club of our native talent will play "Ten nights in a bar room" the evening of the 19 inst. The play will be given in the academy. and the'small fee of 25 cents will be charged at the door. The proceeds of the admission fees will be equally divided, one-halt going to the Baptist church, the other to the Methodist. We are also requested to state that this play will be acted at -Panola the 12 inst. NOMEN. There ia more catarrh in this sec tion of the country than all other dis eases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incura ble. For a great many years doctors pronounced it a local disease, and pre scribed local remedies, and by con stantly failing to cure with local rein edies pron'ounced it ihcurable. Science has proved catarrh to be a constitu tional disease and therefore requires coLstitutional treatment. Hall's Ca tarrh cure, manufactured by F. J. Che ney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on the mArket. it is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful. It acts direct ly on the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. They offer one hun dried dollars for any case it fails to cure. Send for circulars and testi monials. Address F.

On the twentv-third of December last Ezra Tindal, Motte Ragin, Wade Kennedy, and the writer, left Colum bia together for Manning, and as we bade each other good-bye at the de pot in Manning that night, I. could not but admire the magnificent physique of Mr. Tindal. He looked as if many long years of ~leasure awaited him, but alas for - human expectations ! thir teen days thereafter lhe had fallen a victim to Death's cruel dart. He was sick only about ten days, with erysipelas of the head. He leaves a wvife and several children, and a host of friends to mourn his de'ath. I had the pleasure of an intimate aquaintance with Mr. Tindal, and al ways found him a whole-souled,honest friend.' There was no dissimulation about him, and lie never liesitated to do a friend a favor. Honesty in the broadest sense of that word was a characteristic of his. He was very popular. In the sum mer of 1892 his friends. put him for ward as a candidate for the Legisla ture, and hie was elected by the most compimientary vote any candidate for.a similar position ever received in this county. .It was the only pub lic office, I think, he ever held. He was in the prime of life, only about forty years of age, about six feet tall, and weighed about two hundred and* thirty pounds. He was one of the finest specimens of manhood iri the State, having the strength of a giant and not knowing what fear was. This imperfect tribute is- only a tear to mingle with the~ sorrows of many others who weep over his grave. 8. A. NETTLES. Manning, S. C., Jan. 8, 1894.

A good way for the taxpayer who has much property to return, is :to ake a memorandum of the:number i horses, cattle, mules, sheep and ;oats, hogs, watches, organs and pi inos, buggies, wagons and carriages, logs, merchandise, machinery, mon cvs, notes' and accounts, (above in ebtedness) furniture, &c., which will save the taxpayer time, and enable the assessor to progress in the work. Taxpayers return what they own n the first day of January, 1894. All property, both real and per sonal, must be returned this year. Assessors and taxpayers will enter the first given name of the taxpayer in fall, also make a separate return for each party for the township the property is in, and where the tax payer owns realty, to insert the post office as~their place of residence, and those who only own personal prop erty, to give the party's name who owns the land they live on as their residence, which aids the taxpayer as well as the county treasurer in mak ing the collections and preventing errors; Every male citizen between the ages of twenty-one and fifty years on the first day of January, 1894, except those incapable of earning a support from being maimed, or frdni other causes, shall be deemed taxable polls. All returns that are made after the wentieth day of February will have penalty of 50 per cent. added there to, unless prevented by sickness or out of the county during the time of isting. Not knowing the time of isting is no excuse. And all owners of real estate, might do their tenants, whoecannot read, or take a news aper, a great favor by making their returns or telling them the time of isting, and that if they fail to make their returns in time that the valua tion has to be increased 50 per cent. unless they have a good excuse. The assessing and collecting of taxes is all done now in the same year, and we have to aggregate the num ber and value of all the horses, cattle, mules, &c., as well as the acres of land, lots and buildings, and their value, that there is in the county, nd have same on file in the Comp troller General's office by the thir tieth (lay of June each year. And from th~it time to the first day of Oc teber each year the auditor's and treasurer's duplicate has to be com leted and an abstract of the work in the Comptroller's office by that time, which will show at a glance that the auditor has no, time to take in returns or do anything else much, etween the first day of March and the first day of October each year, ut work on the books and blanks. [herefore I hope that all taxpayers will do us the favyor of making their returs ini timfe. .1. ELBERT D)AVIS, Autd itor Clarendon County~. Wholesale Druggist, C HA\L E ST ON, S, C.
