To Democrats of Clarendon:
The undersigned citizens of Clar

that- are being made to unite the
white men of this State on the much

whether we shall send three repre
sentatives to a conference, looking to
the uniting of the white men which
will be held in Columbia, March 27th.
This is an important matter worthy
of the solemn consideration of every
white man and we hope this call will
result in bringing tog ether the peo
ple in a large mass nieeting.

Editor The Manning Times:-A
suspicious character was arrested
here to-day and the suspicions were
afterwards confirmed, and the party
is in limbo awaiting the arrival of
the sheriff of Sumter. The man was
a negro, who offered us a gne mule
for the sum of forty dollars, and the
small price asked for the animal was
what opened our eyes, but after some
consideration we decided that the
best place for tha one who had arouzed
our suspicion, was in the guard
house, so we lost no time in locking
him up, In less than three hours
later Mr. Dyson came up hunting the
mule. The darker and mule are now
both safe and when the Sumter au
thorities arrive the darky will be
turned over to them.
If there are any more cheap mules
up your way just let an ugly nigger
ride them down here, we are prepared
to buy such mules and niggera too.
When the arrest of this mule thief
was attempted be offered such re
sistance that we thought he would
have to be shot before he would sub
mit.
The "Blind Minstrel" gave us a
fine entertainment last Friday even
ing. The silver cup for the prettiest
girl was voted to Lutitia Reese and a
bar of soap for the laziest man, was
awarded to J. E. David. We see that
J. H. Lesesne got the soap in Man
ning, wonder if he is any kia to our
man here. They seem to have the
same characteristics even if they do
spell their names differently.

again. SuscIBER.

A What is it,'
Editor The Manning Times:-You
asked Tarant to explain his conuL.
drum published in the Times. If
you will publish Senator Irby's letter
you have it in a nutshell. The ma
jority of the readers of the Times are
Reformers, sitting erect in the saddle
and riding the middle of theiroad that
was blazed out in 1890 by the March
convention, the action of which body
had our approval, and we are happy
to say are yet loyal to the principles
as enunciated by same. We are tak
ing little or no compound mugwump
syrup in our tea this season; we
would much prefer plain reform
'lasses, the kind that's squeezed and
bilt at our Joshua's mill, who will
most assuredly lead the Reformers
safely across the political Jordan
without getting their .feet wet. In
exorable covetousness on the part of
the princes gave to Israel's great
leader and deliverer multiplied and
vexatious troubles insomuch that it
caused him to err, thereby forfeiting
the leadeiship that devolved upon
another and so be it now. Our
Joshua has been across the river spy
ing out the country, on returning a
few days since brought back some
fine grapes that he promises to let us
see and taste this summer, and I as
sure you, Mr. Editor, if they prove to
be as fine and sweet as represented,
all the compound mugwump edicts
with coo'na preamble and resolutione
can't prevent us from going wher.
they grow, you can bank on it. Mr
Editor, we have some grape connois
seurs over here and we don't propose'
to eat sour ones that will put the
teeth on edge as long as raisins are
accessible, but should tbe worst come
we will take on our plate any time
baked 'possum to cold 'coon stew.
Mr. Editor, wve fellows over here have
a righteous abhorrence to new-faneled
mixtures any wvay, We like things
straight, even if it's good old corn,
much less a 'possum and 'coon hash.
Sardinia, S. 0., March 4, 1894.
DON'Tr PUT IT OFF.
The necessity of aspring medicine is un
imersally admitted. This is the best time
of ycar in which to purify the blood, to res
tore the lost appettite. and to build up the
entire system, as the body is now peculilarly
susceptible to benefit from medicine. The
great popularity attained by Hood's Sarsa
parilla, owing to its real merit and its re
markable success, has established it ats the
very best medicine to take in the spring.
It cures scrofula. salt rheum, and all humors
billiousness, dyspepsia, headache, kidney
and liver complaints, catarrb, and all affee
tions caused or promnotedl by low state of
the system or impure blood. Don't put it
off, but take Hood's Sarsaparilla now. It
will do you good.

TOM DIXON RESIGNS
The Celebrated Gotham Divine
to Quit His Pastorate.
WILL ESTABLISH CIURCH OF HIS OWN
Career of a Young Minister Regarded a
One of the Most Remarkable of the
Century-A North Carolinian
of a "Preacher Family."
Nzw YORK, March 11.-For a long
time past there have been dissensions
among the members of the Twenty
third street Baptist church, due to the
objection of the more conservative
members of the congregation to the
"sensational" character of the sermons I
preached during the last five years by
the pastor. Rev. Thomas Dixon, Jr.
Yesterday morning Mr. Dixon an
nounced his determination to sever his
connection with the church and found
a new one on a broad and popular plat
form, and instead of speaking on "Spec
tacle versus Sensation," in reply to "an
old fashioned clergyman," as an
nounced, Mr. Dixon read his resigna
tion to his congregation, many portions
of which were loudly applauded by the
friends of the retiring pastor.
In referring briefly to the circum
stances which prompted his resigna
tion, Mr. Dixon said:
"My action is not one of sudden impulse and
has no reference to things that have happened
within a year. I determined upon It one year
ago, but found it impossible to carry out my
wish because the church was then encumbered
with financial debt. I feel now relieved from
that obligation of delay. The utmost good will
prevails between myself and the oficials and
trustees of the church. I shall establish a new
church. There will be only one creed in it; be
lief in the Lord Jesus Christ. I believe it to be
a more important part of my life work to lift
many men out of the ditch than to spend my
time in making a few men Baptists."
Mr. Dixon's resignation takes effect
May 1st.
Mr. Dixon, who is only .0 years old,
was born in North Carolina and is the
son of a clergyman. It is said he was
elected a member of the legislature of
North Carolina before he was 20 years
of age. He won five gold medals of
merit at Wake Forest college and after
ward took a post graduate course at
the Johns Hopkins college in Balti
more. He was admitted to the bar,
but believing it to be his duty to preach
the gospel, he becama a minister. His
first pastorates were at Raleigh and
Goldsboro, N. C.
Mr. Dixon came to New York nearly
seven years ago. In 1892 he preached
a number of sermons denouncing In
gersoll. He recently defended Thomas
C. Platt from the pulpit against the at
tacks of Rev. Dr. Parkhurst.

Large Amounts Consumed in This W..y In
Kansas. Nebraska. Iowa and Missou~rt.
WAsrnzwTon, March 11.-The secre
tary of agricnlture has received a com
munication from a leading manu
facturer and business man of Omaha
giving the result of his observation and
inquiries duritng a recent trip through
the state of Kansas as to the present
outlook for the wheat crop in that state
and the extent as to which wheat has
been fed to stcck by Kansas farmers.
The conclusion of the letter is:

cent of last year's crop has been used
for feeding and if the farmers continue
the present ratio more than one half of
last year's crop will beo fed to live
stock." ______
