A Column of News, Tersely Told, of
Interest to Our Many
Readers.
Mr. Carl W Hill is clerking
at the Book Store.
Mr. Walter J. Parrott return
ed on Saturday from a visit to
the Exposition.
E 0. Woods, Etq., has gone
to Columbia to attend the ses
sion of the United States Court.
Mr. J. E. McCutchen, of
Rockey Point, N. C., is on a
visit to relatives in Darlington.
Union services were conduct
ed at the Baptist Church on
Sunday night by the Rev. D.
M. Fulton.
Thanksgiving Day will be
universally observed here to
day by the closing of all places
of business.
Two men with bag pipes and
a monkey passed through town
last week, much to the delight
of the "small boy.”
The congregation of the Bap
tist Church will give their pas
tor, the Rev. R. W. Lide, a
“pounding” tonight.
The Rev. R. W. Lide is still
S uite sick. Services were con-
ucted at the Baptist Church on
Sunday by the Rev. T. Hart
well Edwards.
At a special meeting of the
members of the Baptist Church
on Sunday last, it was decided
to invite the regular annual
Baptist State Convention to
meet herein 1896.
Cheraw has a broom factory
in successful operation. Why
can’t Dai lington start such an
enterprise? It would require
very little capital, and would
certainly realize handsome div
idends.
Mr. J. D. Baird carried to
Atlanta on Tuesday, and will
arrange for their distribution
there, the pamphlets containing
the trade review gotten up to
advertise the Town and County
of Darlington.
London Roper, a colored man
who worked at Mrs. E. A.
Spinks’ boarding house, fell
speechless while at work on
Thursday last, and uied, with
out having once regained con
sciousness, on Saturday after
noon.
There will be services in the
Baptist Church at 11.30 o’clock
this morning for all denomina
tions. A collection will be tak
en up, and will be equally di
vided among the Baptist, Pres
byterian and Methodist Orphan
ages of this State.
Mr. L. R. Ives, of Florence,
has established a branch of his
candy making business here, at
the stsud next to the market
ne w occupied by C. S. McCul
lough, formerly by H. J. La-
Motte, wbere the best home
made candy can be bought at a
low price.
' It if. said that the crowd at
the Exposition is simply enor
mous—this week in particular—
that nothing like it has ever be
fore been known in the history
of this country, and that one
who has not seen it cannot be
gin to form any conception of
what it is like.
By special request, Rev. D.
M. Fulton preached at the Bap
tist Church on Sunday night a
sermon which he had preached
before in his own church. The
text was "Righteousness exalt-
eth a nation, but sin is a re
proach to any people.” There
was a large congregation out to
hear him.*
Messrs. Sligh & Rucker have
on sale black socks, warranted
fast colors, the product of the
Cheraw Knitting Mills, which
they are selling at 121 cents a
pair—a bargain for the price.
Darlington ought to have a
knitting mill, too. There is no
earthly reason, as far as we can
see, why we could not have one.
It would certainly pay.
In response to the petition
sent to the Post Office Depart
ment by a number of our busi
ness men, mails were put on
the Sunday drains to and from
Darlington on Sunday last.
There was, for some reason,
considerable delay in opening
the mail after it got here on
Sunday morning—an inconven
ience which we suppose will not
be likely to occur after the new
system has had time to get into
perfect working order.
Mr. Hairston raffled off his
fine horse on Tuesday. It was
won by Mr. Loy Wadford, who
clerks for Blackwell Bros.
There was another rise in
cotton during the week, and at
the close of the market yester
day it was bringing 8 cents.
The Agnes Wallace Villa
Company will render "The
World Against Her” at the
Opera House next Saturday
night.
The Ladies’ Mission Society
of tho Presbyterian Church will
hold an important meeting at
the Church on the second Sun
day in December, at 4 o’clock.

Mr. W. D. Coggeshall adver
tises in this issue that he will
pay a liberal reward for the re
covery of the buggy and har
ness that were stolen from him
on the night of the 18th inst.
Farmers in this vicinity are
planting oats, notwithstanding
the heavy loss in this crop last
season. Let the grain crop be
larger if possible than it was
last year, that is the only way
to live.
The Baptist State Convention
is now in session at Greenville.
A good many are in attendance
from this County. Among the
number are Rev. J. W. Perry,
Rev. N. N. Burton, Rev. C. W.
Dowell, anu Prof. A. P. Taylor.

The Act of A Fiend.
A colored woman named Ma
ria Hopkins was placed in jail
on Monday under a charge of
administering concentrated lye
to the little son of Mr. 8. Wolf
ram, two and a half years old.
Mrs. Wolfram was away from
home, and when she returned,
she found the little one'suffer
ing the most intense agony.
Somebody evidently forced it to
take the lye, as the vessel con
taining it was on a shelf high
out of the child's reach: besides,
the mouth was burnt only on
one side, as if the lye had been
forced down its throat with a
spoon. Maria Hopkins was in
the employ of Mr. Wolfram as
a cook. She had not given sat
isfaction, and had been told
that she had to leave. The poor
little child, when asked who it
was that hurt it, cried out plain
tively “Maria”, and pointed
directly at the woman, who was
standing by. It is difficult to
conceive that such fiendish
cruelty can exist in the world.
Doctors Norment and Lanneau,
who v.ere called in to attend
the child, say that it will be
several days before they will be
able to tell what the result of
its injuries will be, Mr. and
Mrs. Wolfram have the heart
felt sympathy of the entire com
munity in their great dis
tress, and all hope that their
little one may be spared to
them.

on Dec. 27 for the purpose of
delivering his celebrated lecture
in the Darlington Guards Arm
ory is being much discussed
just now, and the prospects are

“taking, opening and embezz

to Eugene Wilson, by means of
which letters he was enabled to
locate and seize certain contra
band liquors that had been ship

Darlington at the Exposition,
The South Carolina exhibit at
the Atlanta Exposition has been
awarded one of the gold medals.
Bronze medals were given for
Darlington’s tobacco barn, as
well as the exhibits entered by
the Darlington Tobacco Compa
ny and by Mr. C. Mooney. So
Darlington carried off honors in
every-direction that ^njr effort
was made for them. It is great
ly to be regretted that the Dar
lington Guards could not have
entered the parade in Atlanta
today. That would have been
one of the best advertisements
the community could possibly
have had. They might not be
quite as pretty to look at as our
novel glass tobacco barn, but
they would have been seen by a
great many more people. Their
marching would have compared
favorably with that of any of
the State’s fifteen hundred sol
diers that are to march through
the streets of Atlanta today,
anu would have been certain to
attract a degree of attention
and comment that would have
reflected credit upon the Town
and County of Darlington.

Messrs. McCullough & Cooley
had another horse sale here on
Saturday last. About twenty
fine horses were sold at remark
ably low prices The purchaser
of each horse was presented
with a ticket, and at the con
elusion of the sale these ♦ickets
were all put into a hat and one
was drawn out by a boy. The
man whose ticket was drawn
out waj to get a free trip to the
Exposition. Mr. W. K. Bell, of
Hartsville, was the lucky man,
and was presented with a suffl
cient amount of cash to defray
a trip to Atlanta ny Messrs. Mc
Cullough & Cooley This firm
will have a sale of twenty-five
horses at Cheraw to morrow
(Friday), and one at Florence
on Saturday. Messrs. W. D.
Coggeshall & Co., the other
Darlington firm which has been
dealing extensively in horse
flesh this fall, had a sale at
Cheraw on Saturday last, which
was well attended. The next
sale that is to take place here
will be on Monday next, Dec. 2,
and it will be the last of the
season by Messrs. McCullough
& Cooley. This firm has sold
several lots of good horses here
this fall, but they advertise that
this will be the finest lot of ani
male that they have yet had.
Mr. Cooley is now in the West
buying the stock, which will
consist of forty-eight horses and
twenty-two mules. Don’t fail
to attend this sale, as it will
positively be the last one that
will take place at McCullough
& Cooley’s the present season.
* Ho, For Tho Exposition!
For several weeks past, the
Darlington Guards have been
trying to arrange to go to the
Exposition for "Carolina Day”.
They had chartered a sleeping-
car, which they were to stay in
the whole time they were there,
and the trip, if it had been car
ried out, would have been an
ideal one in every respect. It
was not to be, however. It was
ascertained on Saturday that a
sufficient number of men in uni
form could not be gotten togeth
er to go, so that the trip had,
with great reluctance, to be
abandoned. The Captain of the
Company had been in telegraph
ic communication with the rail
road authorities for nearly a
week endeavoring to induce
them to make a special rate of
four dollars from Darlington to
Atlanta and return for “South
Carolina Day”, and sent a man
to Wilmington on Friday to ex
plain the whole situation to
them. Finally, on Saturday,
word came that the rate asked
for had been agreed to, and that
the tickets would be put on sale
Tuesday and Wednesday of this
week, and would be good to re
turn on until Sunday next. The
rate was granted alike to the
military and citizens. While
the former were prevented from
availing themselves of it,
crowds of the latter did so on
both Tuesday and Wednesday.
The exodus to Atlanta during
’the past few days has been so
great that it has been impos
sible for us to obtain 'the names
of all the Darlington people who
went. Here are some of them:
The annual holiday opening

A "Bamboozled” Legislature.
[Columbia Cor., News and Courier.]
Mr. Evans thought the section
was for the protection of our
own ports as against other ports
Some of the railroads are not
being run in the interest of our
ports. As a member of the rail
road commission he would like
for some foundation to be built.
He said that last year an Act
was reconsidered whereby the
Charleston, Sumter and North
ern Road was gobbled up by the
Atlantic Coast Line and it was
done by the lobbyists. The
members were told that one
road could handle business
cheaper than two roads. • The
two roads were combined by a
special extension for the Atlan
tic Coast Line to gobble up the
Charleston, Sumter and North
ern and now neither rat^s nor
service are any better, and per
haps worse. Mr. Evans was
satisfied the article could do no
harm to provide that there
should be no discrimination in
rates.

Convention Echoes,
[News and Courier.]
Columbia, November 24.—
There is such a thing as getting
enough of even the best of
things. The Constitutional
Convention for a long time was
of the greatest attractiveness to
many of the members, and, as
Col. Talbert would charge,
many let their “automatic
mouths run just to hear them
go.” There was a time when
well rounded and rhetorical
speeches were the delight of the
members aud visitors, and when
an hour’s speech was quite the
fashion. Things have changed
wonderfully since then. Ten-
minute speeches are now the
maximum, and the members
are even anxious at times to
divide the minutes. The mem
bers, now that they have been
forced to make short speeches
and explanations, seem to have
developed the faculty of getting
at the marrow of a matter with
facility. It looks very much as
if members have been seized
with "genera! weariness” cou
pled with a desire to get home;
many are bent upon getting
through in time to go to Atlan
ta, and the “steering commit
tee” has helped materially in
expediting the work of the body.
In fact many things h»ve con
spired to rush the work, and the
members are quite willing to go
through the strain of a ten-hour
session if they can only see the
prospect of returning to their
business and families.
The “steers,” as they are po
pularly known, are getting more
acceptable, and the fact that
they have saved much time
seems to counteract much of the
feeling against them which was
showi at the outset. The mi
nority has entered its final pro
test against the curtailment of
debate, and now matters are
moving along without that ele
ment of friction.
The ambition of the Conven
tion now seems to be to get
through with the various arti
cles by Tuesday night, aud if
need be to return here the next
week and receive the report of
the committee on order, style
and revision and ratify the Con
stitution. Thesteeringcommit-
tee promise that this can be
done and the members are hop
ing that the promise will be ful
filled.
Every article of the new Con
stitution has been practically
agreed upon, none of the articles
remaining for the second read
ing, and those that have not
been finally agreed upon and
ordered to be enrolled are on
the calendar for a third reading,
which is the final consideration.
The calendar shows ttiat there
are for the third reading the
articles on finance and taxation,
education, legislative depart
ment and judicial department.
The other matters that are to
be considered are of somewhat
minor importance, being pro
positions for the creation of
special new counties, the pay
ment of Court expenses by the
State, the creation of a sinking
fund to pay county back indebt
edness, and provisions for the
publications and operations of
the new Constitution.
No one now expects any big
fight on any of the unfinished
business, for the general rule is
that whatever fights are made
are on the second reading, and
it is exceptional when changes
are made on the third reading.
For instance, in the article on
corporations, which was con
sidered yesterday, there were
very few changes of any conse
quence and those with reference
to street car lines and the sur
render of the common law lia
bility on freight by contract
were the only material changes.
The general opinion is that
there will be more litigation re
sulting from the article on cor
porations than almost any other
that has been adopted. Some
seem to think the provisions of
this article drastic, others that
it is purely legislative. Others
that it has undertaken too much,
while the members of the com
mittee contend that such of the
report as is legislative is for the
common good of the people and
may as well be fixed in the Con
stitution, so as to avoid changes
by the Legislature.
The article on education,
which seems to be growing in
popularity, will be considered
tomorrow, and the expectation
is that the contest will be on
ihe sections relative to the high
er educational institutions and
the use of the dispensary profits
for the schools. The likelihood
is that a mandatory provision,
with a maximum amount of the
taxes to be used for the colleges
will be offered. The present
provision leaves it discretionary
to continue any of the State’s
colleges, and members think
that if the Legislature be re
stricted in the amount of money
to be appropriated, the manda
tory provision will prevail.
Some of the members continue
to oppose the use of the dispen
sary profits for the schools, but
have not yet made any fight
against such use of the profits,
and have a decided majority
against them. The intention is
to have the dispensary profits
go towards blotting out the sup
plemental tax, and with a good
dispensary account the only
Constitutional tax that would
be imposed would be the three
mill tax and the poll tax, as the
three mill lax, the poll tax and
the dispensary profits would
make up the three dollars that
is Constitutionally provided for
each pupil. There are some of
the members who continue to
think that the people do not
want more than a two mill tax
and do not want to make even
that Constitutional. There may
be some contention as to wheth
er all of the dispensary profits
should go directly to the school
fund or whether the municipal
ities should derive their revenue
as they now do. The fairness
of giving the city its share of
the profits seems to be generally
acknowledged.
The legislative committee re
port seemed to have abounded
in snags, and the homestead
matter perhaps consumed more
time in debate than any one
question that was considered by
the Convention. A month ago
the article seemed to have been
agreed upon, but the very pro
vision that failed to get through
at that time was passed this
week, thereby, it is thought,
making the homestead more of
a protection than at first, the
essential points of the provision
being “no waiver, mortgage oi
other lien shall be permitted to
defeat the exemption in lands
after the homestead has been
claimed.” The only fear about
this provision is that it will cut
off the base of credit of the very
class of people it is expected to
assist.
preme Judge were fixed at eight
and the Circuit Judges at four
years. The prohibition against
allowing Judges to charge as to
the facts is regarded by the
legal fraternity as being very
good.
The bill of rights was adopt
ed about as reported, and per
haps the most important provis
ion is that by which Judges
cannot send prisoners to the
Penitentiary without jury trials,
as has been done iu the con
tempt proceedings that have
been brought about by the dis
pensary system.
The section as to lynching, if
carried out as it ought to be,
will certainly have the tendency
of minimizing lynchings. Not
only is the sheriff to be removed
under the provisions upon a
true bill being found, but the
taxpayers are made to feel the
effects of lynchings by being
liable for damages to the family
of the man lynched. There is
much of future good in the sec
tion, and tnere certainly seemed
to be every disposition to do .
everything possible to strength
en the anti lynching law.
The general article on county
governments and the creation
of new counties was passed as
it stood on its second reading,
and now the only remaining
difference of opinion on this line
seems to be as to the ordinance
to create Seabrook County, or
rather to make w.y for its sub
sequent creation. It is likely
that Rock Hill will try and ride
in on this wave, but there has
already developed considerable
opposition to the Seabrook
County proposition. The pro
gramme is for it to come up to
morrow.
The salary matter has been
talked about as much, perhaps,
as anything that has been done.
The members are naturally very
much interested in the increased
pay that has been given, and
the refusals to take out the ex
tra pay will be few and far be
tween.
The expectation is that the
Convention will cost between
$55,000 and $60,000.
Bagging and ties at Blackwell
Bros.’
In the last moments of the
consideration of the article, Mr.
McMahan’s provision as to for
eign land ownership and Dr.
Doyle’s protection of small es
tates were adopted without
much question.
No matter where the race
problem has presented itself
during the progress of the Con
vention, it has been the occasion
of much debate, and the repre
sentatives of both races seem
bent upon keeping them as dis
tinct as possible. The discus
sion on the question of miscege
nation showed a great deal of the
feeling that prevails here and in
other Southern communities on
the race problem.
The provision of the section
recognizing divorces granted in
other States, where the mar
riage actually occurred in other
States, and one of the contracf-
ing parties was not a citizen of
this State, was passed more
from the sentimental effect of
the letter read by Senator Till
man than because the Conven
tion wished to recognize any
form of divorce. It was the
peculiar circumstances that
have been brought about in
communities, and which ap
pealed directly to the members,
that induced the favorable con
sideration of the provision.
The article on the judiciary
department seems to be gener
ally satisfactory. There is noth
ing radical %bout it and very
few changes are made. Per
haps theraost important change
is the provision under which
county Courts, with limited
jurisdiction, may be organized,
upon the vote of the people of
each county through the Legis
lature. There was a decided
feeling in the Convention for
and against these Courts, and
it seemed that ihe only thing
to do was to effect a compro
mise and leave the establish
ment of the Courts td the Legis
lature, only after the people
voted for them, and then the
hard fight was on limiting their
jurisdiction and powers.
The opinion is that the pro
vision for four Supreme Court
justices, with eight year terms, j
and the privilege of calling the |
Circuit Judge to sit en banc is
one that will give more force to
the Court’s decisions on import
ant matters. Although there
was a decided sentiment in fa
vor of the election of Judges by
the people, the advoeates of the
present system of elections pre
vailed, and the terms of the Su*
