The attention of all citizens is directed to the Notice of the Board of Supervisors of Registration. Notice is given of the appoint? ments of 'be Board. Other appointments will be announced at a later date. The pic nie given yesterday by the bible class of tbe Presbyterian cbrrrch, was a suc? cess io every respect. About fifteen couples were present. ?t commenced raining just as the pic nie party was leaving the grounds with that exception it was a perfect pic nie. The li tniog yesterday struck several of the telegraph poles along the line of the Pcs tal-Cable Telegraph Company's line to Cam? den. The poles struck were badly splintered. Mr. J. W. McKiever bas made a start on the Warehouse, having already finished sev? eral of the foundation pillars. The work has to be completed by August 1st. The foundations for tbe new tobacco ware house have been laid, and the contractor will soon have a force of forty or fifty hands at work on the building. The automatic harness for Monaghan Hose* Co., No., 2 arrived yestsrday, and a crowd of Monaghan sympathizers have been around tbe bouse ever since admiring the fit. Mr. T. B. Frazer, Jr., is having a resi? dence built OD Main Street, opposite to Col. R. D. Lee:s. Mr. J. W. McKiever is the con? tractor. The special train carrying the Pioofore Opera company will leave for Orangeburg at 4:30, p. m., Thursday. There are fifty seven in the company, and at least forty-five or fifty others will go with the party. Ad? vices from Orangeburg indicate that there will be a large audience to witness the per? formance. Health officer Reardon reports'.for the week as follows : Births-2 white males ; 1 colored female and 1 colored male. Deaths-1 white female 65 years old, 1 colored female 3 years old. and 1 colored female 96 years old. John Hall, colored, was before Trial Just tice Wells Mooday, charged with assaul and battery. He plead guilty and was sen tan Ced to serve fifteen days in the chain gang or pay a fine of S ve dollars. He is now in ! the chain gang. The Ducker & Bultmao Co., is coming to j the front as an advertiser. The little adver- : ti8ementof Le Pauto Cigars, which has been maning in The Item for the past few days, j made so favorable an impression on the man ufacturers of the cigar advertised that this morning The Daily Item received an order for one hundred copies of the paper contain- j iDg the advertisement to be sent to the deal- ! er5 who handle the Le Panto. Witherspoon Bros., proprietors of the Sum ter Furniture Factory, are makiDg all the j strawberry crates used by Mr. W. M. Graham ? in sbippiDg the berries from his farm. This is a practical illustration of how oae iodustry ! feeds another and turns loose money io the' commuoity. Besides furoisbicg employ- | meat to fifty to seveaty-five persons daily, j Mr. Graham's berry farm has supplied addi tiona] work for an established maoufactur- j ing enterprise The members of the Sumter Fire Depart- j ment should have gone down to Charleston! last week to see the exhibition of the Charles- j too Fire Department. They would have learned several things that would have open- I ed their eyes and coovmced them that they j are not members of the first department on earth. Graham's strawberry farm is a beautiful sight. From seventy to eighty hands are em? ployed every day, to pick the berries. Be? fore the rain, about five hundred quarts were gathered daily, and since the rain, it is es timated, that one thousaod quarts will be ! gathered every day. A geotleman who bought 9ome berries in Charleston, says they can't compare with Mr. Graham's, either in 1 size or flavor. Thi3 class of farming should i be encouraged in this State, and especially; around Sumter. It i3 the means of giving ; work to a large number of people who could get nothing else to do. South Carolina is j bound to come to the front as a trucking State, and all such industries should be en? couraged by our people. Married. At th? heme of the bride, in i>partanourg, S. C., On the 23d inst.. Mis? Louie Lee, daughter of the ?ate Dr. Sara'! B. Mud Mrs. Charlotte K Jones, to Rev. Stephen Abram Nettles, Rev. Wm. C. Power, assisted bj Rev John E. Carlisle, officiating. Death. Miriam Virginia, daughter of Mr. and Mrs J. M Wingate died Monday afternoon after a brief illness. The funeral services were heUl yesterday afternoon at th? Webb burial grounds near this city.* -??n?~ -wmm - Ladies Memorial Association. The annual meeting of The Ladies Memo? rial Association will t;e Le!d at the office of Hon. Altamont Moses at the Masonic Tem p.e Building on Friday May 1st a? 6.30 o'clock, p. ru. Members will-please attend. By order of the President. i. C. Strauss, Secretary Gospel Temperance Union. There will be a meeting at the Methodist Church this ereniDg at 8 20 o'clock in the interest of th*' work dotie by the Gos? pel Temperance Union. All denominations will unite in this meeting and the pastors of the several churches will be present and take part in the exercises Rev L L. Abbot, the Stare organizer for the Union, who is io the city, will be present and lay bofore the meet? ing an outline of the aims and purposes of the o-gauizttion. All persons who aie in anywise interested in the promotion of the work of temperance evangelisation are cor? dially invited to be present. This meeting will be in connection with the Love Feast already announced. The First National Bank of Sumter. As will be seen by the notice published in this paper, all the conditions have been com? plied with ?ud the name ot the dimonds Na? tional Bank bas been changrd to that of "The First National Bank of Sumter." Dr. China bas offered to iet the Willing Workers' circle of !he King's Daughters have (be use of bis soda fountain during the en? campment of the Citadel boys. Should they take charge of tbe fountain then they will be able to realize quite a sum for that circle. They will have good material to work on ?nd the girls know how to make the boys drink. The Orangeburg boys will give a dance "compli-nentary to their Sumter friends," 00 the night of* the 30th instant. Sumter should send over as -large a delegation as Orangeburg sent here on a similar occasion. The Orangeburg boys have made arrange? ments to entertain their Sumter friends and a pleasant time is promised all who go. If three or four of our farmers who have farms near the city were each to plant an acre of strawberries, they could give em? ployment to one hundred hands the year round, and for two months of the year could kee^; three limes that number at work. A moment's reflection will show the most skeptical that factories are not all that is needed to make our city enter upon an era of prosperity. Several strawberry farms would bring to the city ju3t as many laborers as a factory would. Mrs. Loring, the president of the Willing Workers Circle of the King's Daughters de? sire especially to thank Dr. China for the use of bis fountain during the past two weeks; also the lady and gentlemen friends of that Circle who patronized them so liberally while they bad charge of the fountain. Quite a nice amount was realized. There is no donbt about it, if Dr. China could have as lovely and efficient clerks at his fountain the entire summer as he bas had the past two weeks, his sales of soda water would ex? ceed all previous sales. Prizes were of? fered to the two young ladies selling the largest quantity of sodawater. Misses Lillie Delgar and Bertie China were the recipients of the prizes, their sales having amounted to more than any of the other girls. The large amount of good done by the King's Daugh? ters is astonishing and they should be en? couraged in their good \.ork. The Circle here is blessed in having so capable and effi? cient a president as Mr9. Loring. She bas worked hard and has done more than any one else to build up this Circle of the King's Daughters, and she should be proud of her work, and justly so too, for we know of no organization of young people that can boast of as many pretty girls as the Willing Work? ers Circle. They are rightly named, they are willing workers, and their works will live after them. The German given to the Pinafore Company Thursday night was very enjoyable indeed The sailors and sailor girl9 looked very pretty dancing in their costumes. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Ferd Levi, Mrs. Geo. Loring; Misses Clemmie Fuller, Bertha Strauss, Theresa James, Bertie China, Fannie China, Pauline Gaillard, Mattie Carson, Carrie Solomons, Lillie Delgar, Lessie Talley, Nettie Weinberg, Marie Lee. Mr. H. Smith, of North Carolina ; Messrs. I.A. Ryttenberg, Sol Ryttanberg. Don Auld, Jim Brogdon, Alva Solomons, Paul Kennedy, Doug. Chiua, Moses Moore, Grenville DeLorme, Harby Moses, Moddie Strauss, Graham Moses. - Thompson, Willie Burgess, Louis Lyons, Frank Winn, Dave Winn. The committee wish to thank Mr. Randie, of the Sumier Music House, who so kindly loaned the new and elegant Piano used last night. Candidates' Cards. Mr. S. F. Lenoir is announced for Clerk of Court in this issue. Mr. Lenoir has consid? erable experience in the duties of the office and is qualified to fill it acceptably. Mr. John J. Shaw, of Mt. Clio, is an- j oounced for Supervisor of this county. Mr. Shaw is a substantial citizen and will make I a capable and painstaking official should he be elected. Strawberries and Cream.

Organized for Business and Com? mittees Appointed The new city Cyuncil his taken hold of the affairs of the city in ? nu?iiiess-iike manner, and the organization has neen perfected on a plan that will insure a careful, systematic and intelligent administration of the municipal government. Thc follow ing committees have f>en Ap? pointed : Ways and Means-H. Barby, George D Shore. Auditing-C. M. Hur9r, Jr , and T. 8. Fraser, Jr. . Streets and Ditches-John Reid and H. J. Mc Lau ri H. Police .nnd Fire Department-R. P. Mona? ghan. The regular meeting of Council wa3 held last night and routine business transacted. Alderman H. Hardy was elected Major pro tem. ?nd will act as Mayor whenever Mayor Bossard is absent or unable to dis? cbarge his duties. Tbe Ways and Means Committee reported that there is sufficient money in the treasury for ail present needs and that there will be no necessity for borrowing money for several montb3, if at all, The street committee reported several streets to be in need of immediate repair?, and council empowered vibe committee to undertake the work of repair at once. The Opera House was reported to be in need of some slight repairs and this work was order ed done The city's share of the profits from the dis? pensary for the quarter ending March 31st, was reported as received and paid into the treasury. The amount is $626.90. A number of bills were referred to the Auditing Committee The election of City Clerk and Treasurer, Street Commissioner and members of the police force will be held at the next meeting of the Council, Tuesday evening next. Pinafore. Thesecond presentation of the delightful little opera, Pinafore, was such a3 to be a cause of gratification to those who were ebief lv interested In Wednesday's issue of The Item we gave a detailed account of Pinafore, as presented on the evening previous. We can add nothing to what was then said, except, to say that Mrs. H. J. Harby, as Josephine, enraptured the audience. She is possessed of a magnificent voice, and her solo work was excellent. She sustained her part in a pleas? ing manner, and received the enthusiastic plaudits of an audience of critics. And that Miss Carre Solomons, as Buttercup, was as perfect in this role as amateurs ever get to be. The participants were naturally more at home on "the boards" and this easeincreased the effect of the opera There was a fair audience present ; but not so many as the success of the previous pre sentation seemed to assure. Those who were present seemed to be well pleased, and many who were there on the evening bef?te were a9 thoroughly entertained as they had been on the previous occasion. Twice told tales or twice rendered operas are not usually enjoyed; but the ease, grace and naturalness which the actors acquired by their appearance on Tues? day evening more than compensated for any lack of interest that would naturally accrue by repetition. The principals changed their mannerisms to a degree sufficient to avoid the creation of a feeling of revul? sion on the part of the audience against too much sameness and yet they did not go to the other extreme and sacrifice the identity of the character they impersonated for the sake of novelty. To those who attend the two presentations of Pinafore by Sumter's ameteurs, one thing is apparent-that there is an abundance of latent histrionic talent in our midst, and nothing is necessary but practice to bring it out in full and telling force. These entertainments by Sumter's own sons and daughters are thoroughly enjoyable, and thanks are due to those who were the originators of the idea ; for we have reason to expect tbe production of some other opera, and with each successive production, we may hope for improvement and nearness to perfec? tion. The thanks of all who attended these per? formances are due to Mr. Tillinghast. He undertook a stupendous task under very in? auspicious circumstances and by hard work and unceasing care and energy he gave a Sumter audience the privilege-of attending an opera produced by her own ?ons and daugh? ters and presented io such a manner as to cause the artistic pulse to tingle with pride and hope. The Orchestra-our orchestra, of which we have so much right to be proud, acquitted itself in its accustomed manner. How much does a good orchestra lend to the enjoyment of the people of any town, who are so fortu? nate as to have ot e, and we-we express it mildly-have one unsurpassed by an> in our State. Long life to the Fourth Regiment Or? chestra ! An Affidavit.

Graded School Exercises. The Graded Schools resumed exercises Monday after the annual spring holiday, and teachers and pupils will ne kept busy until the session closes in June. There was a full attendance of pupils ?md all he tenchers were again at their posts, tho?e who have been absent on account of sickness having recovered. The re-commencement of regular work was marked by one of the public exercises that have been given on the first of each school month. The customary programme was car? ried out, and there wa3 nothing different in the exercises this morniug from those of pre? vious months. The orchestra played two selections that weie exquisite. The overture was particularly fine, and many of those present expressed the opinion that the or? chestra never played better. Rev. J. C. Trauger. conducted the devo? tional exercises and made a ten minutes talk to the school that was found both interesting and hopeful. The largest crowd that has attended any of the public exercises was present this morning which showed that the patrons of the school are becoming more appreciative of the mothiy exercises and of the efforts of Supt. Edmunds. Prof. T. C. Manning has been engaged to teach penmanship in the Graded School du- j ring the next month. He teaches in the schools of several of the cities of North Car? olina, Virginia, and Georgia, having a regu? lar engagement for each year.
