He does not promise to remain in town a great while longer. Remember in time. Prof. W. B. Bonham, we regret to state, is quite sick at the Central Ho tel. Messrs. S. A. Rigby and D. Levi have returned from their Northern trip. Miss Zula V. Skinner, of Bamberg, is visiting at Dr. J. G. Dinkins'. The publication of the TiEs was delayed a day this week in order to give our readers the result of the pri mary election. The table given c;an tains the complete vote of every club. Mr. J. B. Andrews, of Worth Coun ty, Ga., is visiting in this county. Mr. Andrews is originally from Claren don, and his friends here will be glad to learn that he ranks among the pro gressive business men of his adopted home. Married on Sunday evening, the 29th, at the residence of the bride's father. by Rev. L. W. Nettles, Mr. Muldrow Brockington, of Williams burg, to Miss Ida Holladay, of Sum merton. The newly wedded pair stopped over at the Central Hotel Monday, on their way home. Mrs. Brockington, nee Miss Holla day, is the daughter of our esteemed citizen, Mr. W. W. Holladay. The "Dime Reading" at the resi dence of Mr. J. T. Stukes, on last Monday evening, proved to be a suc cess. A recitation by Miss Lizzie Benbow was the feature of the even ing. The next "Dime Reading" will be at the residence of Mr. Scott Har vin, Tuesday week. Extraordinary but nevertheless true. 'We refer to the announcement of B. F. Johnson & Co., of Richmond, in which they propose to show working and energetic men how to make from $700 to $2,500 a year, over and above expenses. The improvement in the crops du ring the last three weeks has been 'wonderful. From the reports of ex perienced farmers, and what we have seen in onr late journeyings over the county to political meetings in the wake of candidates, we feel confident in predicting that an average crop will be made. In tbe Jordan, Sum anerton, and santee sections we pre 'dict that the harvest of cotton an-I corn will be larger than usual. We published some time ago that The town council had had made sign boards, with the names of the streets of the tow~i, and would put them up in short arder. We have looked for a long time to see these boards in their proper places, and now begin to wonder why our usually active City Fathers are so dilatory in this one thing. Hang the sign boards out to the breeze, gentlemen! Friday at Wilson's mill was the last appointment for the candidates. Quite a number of the eitizess of the Deep Creek section assembled to hear them speak. When the hl of candi date speakers was finished, Col. HK L. Benbow who was present, was called The 3 jesephF.

Conyers are in the race for Scho< and L. Appelt, for Probate Judge. '1 primary are: A. M. Brailsford, T. J.( The report here given is not all oci for by general and loud acclaim. Col. Benbow delivered a stirring address on the farmers' movement and the educational institutions of the State. He was, he said, heartily in favor of both. He regarded the most impor taut act of his life when as Senator he voted in the interest of the South Carolina Uuiversity. Referring to the Citadel Academy, Col. Benbow said, I that the name of General Jenkins should make that institution hallowed in the eyes of the people. His ad dress was received with great enthu siasm. The Black River Union met at Dudley's Church on the 27th, 28th, and 29th of the present month. The I only minister attending was Rev. W. I H. Mahoney. This venerable, patri- t archal pastor came to the front, and with energies surprising in one so I aged, discharged the whole duties of t the occasion witlh consummate ability. f His sermons were unusually fine- I the one on Sunday is spoken of as be ing amiong the ablest efforts of his life. The Union was largely attended and a spirit of harmony and spiritual entlmsiasm prevailed. I The next meeting of the Union will be with the Manni Church on the,' 5th Sunday of October. C -I4' * ~4- C -Nature in an Uproar. it On Tuesday night our town and community was thrown into a state of ! wild and feverish excitement over 1 the violent earthquake, which shook t every building in the place to the cen tre, the earth reeling and shaking like s s a drunken man. In the business por tion of the town, in each store, were gathered groups of persons discussing the results of the exciting primary election, the returns of which were e coming in from the different pre cincts, when, after an ominous roaring, d as if a tempest were gathering, the buildings began to tremble and sway l from side to side; merchandise falling g and tumbling aboat, heavily framed b pictures performing acrobatic feats t amid the falling of chimneys, and a I wild and weird accompamiment of fe- S male shrieks-all made a scene never t to be forgotten by the many who wit- 0 nessed it. The plastering in many of a the houses was thrown down and s walLz cracked by the same. The first '1 and most violent shock lasted from P three-fourths to a full minute-and g was followed all through the night at t irregular intervals by other shocks, each, apparently, growing less severe, until we had terrafirma azain. Many of our colored people joined h in the chorus of alarm, and thought a the whole only a precursor of "the a vengeful day, when Heaven and Earth C shall pass away." b After some hours, a measurable P quiet prevailed, and many sober and a solemn assemblies, on door steps, I kept up a restless vigil all through the long night, The citizens of our town have no m desire to. experience any more earth quakes and think that the memory of T this one will prove quite sufficient for all time to come. At an early hour on Wednesday miorninz an effort was made to com muuicate with Charleston and other points, by telegraph, but could make no connection. Rteports have reach ed us that no trains have left Charles ton, or reached that point, since the occurrence herein referred to, and, consequently, no mails. Wild ru mors are anoat as to the cause of de tention. One is, that a part of the North Eastern Railroad track has been engulfed in a huge opening in the earth, and that hissing, boilingk steam, is shooting madly from the 0: fissure thus violently made. We do not vouch for the truthful- A ness of the latter. The Eff'ect on Our Colored Friends. Aug. 31, 1886. A shock or shaking of houses took place about 10 o'clock and continued until twelve-the people were horror 0 stricken. They fled from their hous- i es in every direction, screaming and t Icring, judgemnent ! judgement !!

Hall, the telegraph )perator here, reported about midday hat one of the Charleston operators iad walked to Monck's Corner and vired that the south water front of the ,ity was almost totally destroyed by a idal wave; the northern part fearful y damaged by the earth quake, and hat the central part was on fire. This news in a short time spread ar and near, and excited our citizens o a feverish state. Being shut off rom any communication with the city, othing further has been heard. Base Ball. Lovers of the "national game" (we aean the one played with ball and 'at) were treated to a contest on last 'riday, which, for an amateur game, -as finely played. It was the result f a challenge from the "Wild Cats" f Sammy Swamp to the Manning sam, and was played on the Manning Pase Ball field. The game was open d with the "untamed felines" at the at-they were retired in one, two, iree order. The Manning boys then iade two runs-the visitors followed uit on the next inning, leaving the ,ore equal on uneven innings. This -as changed by the home team ma ing one run on the inning due it. p to this period of the game it look I very much as if Clarendon was go ig to make herself a reputation for ininutive base ball scores, but alas >r human hopes! "Jumbo" took the ad in some of the most fearful slug ing ever seen on the diamond, and oth teams followed it up, carrying ie number of runs up to the "teens." must be said that the size of the ,ore is not due to bad playing, but > their splendid batting. At the end the game, which occupied about a hour and three quarters, the score ood 21 to 16 in favor of Manning he unpleasant duty of umpiring was rformed by Mr. P. B. Thames, who ave entire satisfaction by his impar al decisions and gentlemanly bear La Quite a large crowd was in attend ce, and all were unanimous in the :>pe that they would soon again have other opportunity of seeing such well contested game. The "Wild ats" left for home that night. Come ick boys, again. Its a pleasure to Lay with such courteous gentlemen ; you, after reading every day of At nta's club. ith a wife and sixteen ragged little kids )u'll find that it isn't any fun, hen the candidate calls with a starved out horse, wo dogs and a six foot son.
