the Tom~ give notice of a big sale of

lands to get up a genuine boom for
these towns, and in consequence the
lots will be sold at comparatively low
figures. It is to the interest of the
railroad and of the owners of the land
to offer special inducements. Let ev
ery one in any way interested give
the matter careful consideration, and
by all means attend the sale.

ble colored man, highly esteemed for
his honesty and strength of charaeter,
died suddenly at his home last Mon
day morning about 8 o'clock of heart
disease. He was as well as usual and
walking about a short time before his
death. He had, however, been com

death was not altogether unexpected.

The large barn of Mr. A. Wein
berg's "Sparkman place" about five
miles from town, was burned last
Monday morning. It was a large
building and the first story consisted
of stables. In the fire perished a fine
horse, a mule, a colt, two milch cows
and an ox. The barn contained all of
the corn, pease, fodder, and hay made
on the place during the past year,
also an unginned bale of cotton. The
place is occupied by Mr. J. A. Davis,
who said he thought he heard some
one walking in the yard that morning
about 1 o'clock, and he got up and
went out but could see nothing. He.
returned and had just got asleep,
wxhen he beard a roaring and went
out to find the whole building
enveloped in flames. He tried to cut
the horses out, but it was too hot for
him. The loss is estimated at about
$1,500, on which there was no insur
ance. It is thought to have been un
doubtedly the vork of an incendiary.

To The Farmers.
I am prepared to sell at as
low figures for the cash as
any one, and my past record
been engaged in business in
Sumter for two years, and
during that time I have done
all in my power to keep the
prices of goods at the lowest
figures, and my many cus
tomers will, I feel confident,
bear testimony to the fact,
that they have got best
goods and lowest prices from
me.
The New Year is here, and
I wish not only to retain ev
ery old customier, but to add
a large number of new ones
this year. All I ask is a
trial. I get the lowest whole
sale figures when I buy, and
I can thus give lowest prices.
I ask every farmer who vis
its Sumter to be sure to call
to see me. It wvill be to his
interest to do so.
And not only the farmers
but everybody. I cannot be
undersold.

Sumter's Strange Electric Girl.
(Sumete m aelawla.]
The strange spiritual manifestations so
mysteriously connected with the little col
red girl Daisy Robinson continue daily
with unabated activity. If there be any
change at all since we last noticed thei, I
these manifestations are more frequent and
pronounced than formerly. Every day,
startling occurrences amuse and mystify the
persons who visit the room where the little
irl stays with her sister. The pictures
hanging on the walls leap from their places.
Cups, saucers, and other frangible articles
about the room commit suicide, the old sew
ing machine standing near the door persists
in toppling over on its side, the organ now
lashed to the wall by strong cords, shows a
restless desire to make its obeisance, and is
only restrained by the strength of the cords
holding it in its place, the chairs dance
hornpipes and karo, the tables waltz around
on first one leg and then another, the mir
ror on the bureau leaves its place and
smashes to smithereens on the floor, brich
bats flung by hands invisible, fall within
the room, the organ stool capers about, and
many ether doings are events of daily occur
rence in the haunted chamber.
The things reported in the Watchman and
Soudlron are beginning to attract attention
at the North, where the papers have copied
our reports of them. Among other letters
received by Daisy we publish two from a
medium or spiritualist in Philadelphia. In
answer to the first letter published below, a
gentleman who has taken great interest in
the strange case sent the desired lock of
hair. After "sitting in diagnosis" on thr
hair the results were communicated in the
second letter. We publish these letters as
written, without changing phraseology, or
thography, or supplying punctuation. We
hope our readers may be able to understand
them. We must confess that we (10 not.

Nothing of the antecedents or any facts
in the past life of Daisy or any member
alive or dead of her family wvas communi
cated to the writer of the foregoing letters.
The parentage of the little girl has been
withheld for obvious reasons, yet in the
second letter the Philadelphia correspond
ent speaks of p~eople who lived and moved
and had their being in this community.
The old .Joe referred to was the maternal
grandfather of Daisy.
Another letter received by the gentleman
referred to above, as having forwarded the
lock of hair, frem an entirely different
source, shows its author to be a man of
culture evidently faumiliar with phenomena
of a similar kind. Thinking that this let
ter might be of interest as showing that the
credulity manifested here is shared else
where, we publish that letter also.

DF..a Sin: Accept my thanks for the
prompt answer to my inquiry about the
Daisy Robinson phenomena.
For twelve years I have been preparing a
book upon the "Substance of the Soul." It
will soon be published. I have been verify
ing the reported phenomena. You appar
ently take scientific interest in these occult
subjets, and I have a belief I may implic
itly rely upon your representations.
Please answer:
1. Can the girl direct this powver volition
ally or is it automatic ?
2. If she can direct the power by her will
is it without bodily action, such as patting
forth her hand toward the inanimate objects?
3. What is the effect of her power upon
organized, living objects ?
4. Any specific phenomena you report
to me will be duly accredited to you in my
book.
Very respectfully and fraternally,
We do not pretend to any theory or opin
ion on the Daisy Robinson ease. These
phenomena arc to be daily witnessed at the
house of the passive agent of them. She
seems to take no active part in them. No
p~hysicatl contact with the articles ofT various
kinds that cut these queer capers is neces
sary to make them "perform."' The agency
of the disturbance is unseen and etherial,
and entirely beyond us even to guess it.
Ileal philosophy seeks rather to solve than
deny. While we bear every day the small
pretenders~to science talk of the absurdity
of these manifestations, the more erudite
knowedge is aware that the greatest discov
eries in science have been made through
belief in things quite as mysterious before.

Smakies the statement thiat she c:-ught cola,
which settled on her lungs: she was treated
for a month by her family physician, but
grew worse. He told her she was a ltope
ess vit of consauptuvo aud that no medi
cine could cure her. Her druggist suggest
ed Dr. Kings New Discovery for Consump

found herself benefitted from first dose

bottles, found herself sound and well, now
does her own house work and is as well as
she ever was.--Free trial bottles of this great
discovery at Dinkins &~ Co.'s drug storo,

Win. Timmnons, posmaster of Idaville,
lnd., writes; "Eec
more for me than all other medicines comn
bined, for that bad feeling arising from kid
ney and liver trouble." John Leslie, farnier
and stockman, of same place, says: "Find
Electric Bitters to be the best kidlney and
hi-er medicine, made me feel like a new
man." J. W. Gardner, hardware merchant,
same town says: Electric Blitters is just the
thing for a man who is all run down and
don't care whether he lives or dies; he found
new strength, good appetite, and felt just
like he-had a new lease on life. Only 50c.
a bottle, at Dinkins & Co.'s drug store.

Capt. Rt. W. Andrews the old pedestrian
who walked a few years ago from this point
to Boston was in Sumter on Saturday last
and paid us a visit. He says that he in
tends celebrating his one hundredth birth
day on Fourth of July in Sumter and that
on that day he wants all of his old friends
to assemble on C'ourt House Square where
he will promise themi entertainment. He
epect~s to lire 100 rounds on that day and
shortly after he will undertake another long
journey. He is very erect and would be
taken for a man not more than 70 years.
He ran the first stage route through Sumter
years ago.-&mloer Aldciace.

tude will overcome the most robust, when
the system craves for pure blood, to furnish
the elements of health and strength. The
best remedy for purifying the blood is Dr.
J. H. MlcLean's Sarsapaiilla.
Sick headache, biliousness, nausea, cos
:veness, are promptly and agreeably ban
ist-ed by Dr. J. H. McLean's liver and kid

If health and life are worth anything, and

tone up your system by taking Dr. J. HI.
McLean's Sarsaparilla.
Dizziness, nausea, drowsiness, distress af
ter eating, can be cured anid prevented by
taking Dr. J. H. McLean's liver and kidney
pillets (little pills.)
