ERVIN, Agent for Wannamaker & Brown, P'hiladelnhia. Pa. Joseph Sprotl, Sr., has Joined the Throng. Died, yesterday at his home in Jordan, in the eighty-third year of his age, Mr. Joseph Sprott, Sr. Mr. Sprott was a man who merited the love and respect of not only the commu nity in which he lived, but the large number of acquaintainces throughout the State. He took a deep interest in the welfare of his neighbors and many a one has been the beneficiary of his charity. His home was always open to his friends, his hospitality was proverbial and he dispensed charity with a lavished hand. He lived a life that is worthy of imita tion by his fellow man. Mr. Sprott was a deep- thinker and his judge meut on matters of business and politics was sought after. He was one of the twelve commissioners to locate the county seat for this county, and is the last member of the sub committee of the three who selected Manning as the site. He never would accept office with profit, but often served his people in public position where no pay was attached. When the war-broke out Mr. Sprott was in bad health and not able to go, but his remaining home was a blessing to the wives of and children of the soldiers. He supplied the wants of the soldier's families and furnished bountifully to the men at the front. Mr. Joseph Sprott, Sr., was truly a patriot, a gentleman and a man of piety. He was a consistent member of the Methodist church nearly all his life, and although having lived to a ripe old age and havingjhad the grati fication of seeing his children grow up and become staunch and worthy citizens,' his death has removed a land mark that will be sadly missed. The funeral took place to day at Jordan church. Rev. James Mc Dowell, an old friend of the deceased, conducted the service. The funeral was largely attended, and quite a number from Manning laid a side their business to go to pay their last respects to this noble gentleman. Stockholders' Meeting. Manning, S. C., April 18, 1895. In obediance to the call for a stock holders' meeting of the Manning Col legiate Institute, which was duly ad vertised and proper notices sent to each stockholder, said meeting was held in the court house, in Manning, on April 18th, 1895. Mr. James E. Davis, chairman of the board of trustees, called the meeting to order. In organizing for the transaction of business Joseph Rhame. Esq., was elected chairman and E. J. Browne, secretary. At the request of the chairman, Maj. A. Levi stated the objects of the meeting, namely: to devise some way by which the indebtedness of the Insti tute could be discharged; to elect trustees in the place of those whose terms had expired, and such other business as might properly come be fore the meeting. before proceeding further, it was ascertained that a majority of the stockholders were represented at the meeting. Of the 440 shares, 267 were either represented in person or by proxy. Maj. Levi submitted a claim in favor of The Bank of Manning for ($728.40)seven hundred and twenty three dollars and forty cents, which amount he stated was the original loans together with interest to date. Mr. M. Levi submitted a claim for ($79.27) seventy-nine dollars and twenty-seven cents. The advisabili ty of electing a board of trustees was discussed at some length. As there were no official records, they having been burned during the fire, and the members of the old board not know ing definitely when their terms ex pired, the members of the old board with one exception resigned, in order that a new board could with legal propriety be elected. Those who tendered their resignations and which were accepted were: A. Levi, D. M. Bradham, B. A. Walker, Jas. E. Davis, P. B. Mouzon, and I. I. Bagnal. Mr. C. J. Lesesne, having temporarily removed from the State, his- office as trustee was, on motion of Mr. A. Levi, declared va cant. It was thought best to reduce the number of trustees, and on motion of Mr. A. Levi, the number was fixed at five and their term of office two years. A motion by Mr. A1T Levi to elect a new board was adopted and resulted in the following members: Messrs. James E. Davis, D). M. Brad ham, I. I. Bagnal, W. Scott Harvin, and B. A. Walker. A motion by Mr. Appelt, that the secretary notify the new members of their election and a ppoint a time for them to meet and organize, was adopted. The following motion by Mr.Appelt was unanimously adopted: Resolved that the trustees -of the Manning Collegiate Institute be in structed to ascertain by proof the indebtedness of said Institute, and also be authorized to negotiate a loan to pay off all the indebtedness so ascertained, existing against said institution, and to give a mortgage of the property, if the same be neces sary, also to include in said loan enough money to keep said building insured. A motion was made by Mr. D. M. Bradham that a committee of three be appoinfed to draft a set of by-laws for th1e guidance of the board, and that the chairman, Mr. Rhame, be one of said committee and he to ap point the others. This was adopted and the other members appointed were Mr. A. Levi and Mr. I. I. Bag nal. A motion by Mr. Davis that the secretary of this meeting be author ized to turn over the minutes of this meeting, after being approved by the chairman, to the board of trustees, and also to present a copy to The Bank of Manning, was adopted. A motion to adjourn, subject to the call of the board of trustees, unless sooner called together by any num ber of stockholders representing fifty or more shares, was adopted. There being no further business, meeting adjourned. J. F. RE AME, E. J. Baows, Chairman. Sec. Pro Tem. Last Sunday's C.olumbi a Register con tained the following news item: "Sheriff Bradham of Clarendon county was in the ity yesterday and while here unexpectedly ran upon a white man on Gervias street for whom he had been look ing for some time. Whbile walking to the Union depot, down G'ervias street, the sherift saw a white man named WV. 0.

Sheriff Brad ham had received instructions from the sheriff at Cameron to be on the lookont for McEI ween, but he had never s en him until he accidentally ran across him yesterday. McElween, as soon as he saw the sheriff, ran and jumped over a fence and hid under a house. Sheriff Bradham, with the assist ance of two policemen, who happened to be in the vicinity, pursued the fugitive and caught him. McElween offered the sheriff money to let htm go. but this was, of course, refused, and the prisoner was turned over to the chief of police, who wired to the sheriff at Cameron for instene tions. lie will be held until a reply is seat. R1. B. Loryea has the agency for Geo A Friend's Tribute. April 23rd, 1895. Editor The Manning Times:-This morning on my way down street I was grieved to hear of the death of my life-long friend, Joseph Sprott, Sr., and determined that I would write you something about his life a3 coming directly under my observa tion. First thought about my de parted friend was, where has he gone? I turned to my Bible and I find these words, II Samuel, 22nd chapter, 20-25 verses: "He brought me forth also into a large place: He delivered me, because He delighted in me. The Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness: according to the cleanliness of my hands hath he recompensed me, for I have kept the ways of the Lord, and have not wick edly depart'ed from my God, for all his judgments were before me: and as for His statutes, I did not depart from them, I was also upright before Him, and have kept myself from mine iniquity, therefore the Lord hath recompensed me according to my righteousness, according to my cleanliness in his eye-sight." In my early boy-hood days my father's farm and his adjoined each other, and they were friends. In the year 1861 when our country was call ing for her sons to go to the front, I well remember the smiling face of my friend in urging us on, and when we were about to leave home. we had the grasp of his hand and a "God bless you, boys. I will see that your families do not suffer while you are away." This made such an impres sion on our minds, knowing that he meant what he said. When we got to the city of Charleston, I, as orderly sergeant, drew the company in line under the railroad shed, and there it was proposed that we should adopt the name "Sprott Guards" in honor to our friend, Joseph Sprott. The newspapers next, day said that we had taken the name of "Spratt Guards" in honor of Col. Spratt, of Charleston, but next day the correc tion was made so that every one might know who we intended to honor. Many a one can testify that he carried that promise out and con tinued through a long and useful life to assist not only the Sprott Guards and their families, but every one who came within his reach. At our last reunion (and he was always there) many of my comrades know how generous he was in relieving one of our number who was then passing under the rod and soon to pass over the river to rest under the shade of the trees. I could continue to write about him, but will leave it to others who are better able than I am to tell of his life. I shall always thank God for the life of his servant, Joseph Sprott, and try and profit by his pre cept and example, so that I, too, shall be ready when summoned to meet Him, and shall, with my dear, departed friend, praise the Lamb for ever. My ideal of a soldier was Robert E. Lee, and that of a Christian citizen, Joseph Sprott, Sr., and feel that I ean, with perfect propriety, close with the following lines: "The greatest girt the hero leaves his race. Is to have been a hero." DANIEL J. BRADHAM. BUCKLEN'S ARNICA SALVE.

CHARLESTON, S. C., April 19.-Several days ago a letter written by Mrs. R. C. Mather, principal of the Mather Indus trial school for colored youths, was published in the New York Evening Post and New York Tribune represent ing that the colored people on the South Carolina sea island were suffer ing greatly for the lack of food and clothing. They were represented in a starving condition and a most urgent appeal was made to the charitably dis posed Northern people for assistance. The matter was referred to Colonel T. G. White, correspondent for the News and Courier for investigation. Colonel White writes: I cannot. under the circumstances allow these statements and appeals for help to go unchallanged. and must say that any further attempt to extort more charity from the big hearted people who may be open to such ap peals would be an imposition upon their benev olence. as no unnsual distress exists. True it is that the past winter was an ex ceptionally trying one, and more so In compar ison to the winter that preceded it, when even the Red Cross. who received tons and tons of clothing for distribution, must have thought it unnecessary to distribute but a very small portion of the goods they re ceived among the beneficiaries for whom they were intended, and that by far the greater bulk of warm and more comfortable clothing was, after being sorted, replaced and reshipped to their farm and establishment in Michigan. I am quite positive that there is not and can not be any starvation or undue suffering among them attributable to the remote effect of the August cyclone, the traces of which are now almost obliterated. I guarantee that there is far less destitution and suffering in the genial climate of this section, either for want of food or deficiency of clothing, than can be found in the frigid north and northwest among the working classes. To be sure there is great depression in all branches of labor and employment here as elsewhere, but the wonderful resources of this mild and genial climate and generous and pro lific soil is proof against-any such extravagant statements of squalor, starvation and want as is attempted to be depicted by these writers, who having been responded to in their appeals, can now have nothing but selfish and merce nary consideration to prompt them in holding on the teat that afforded so much of the milk of human kindness, the quality of which being strained would bring cream to the top, but leave only clabber at the bottom of the bowl. THE MOTHER DREW A PISTOL Parental Objection to a Marriage Nearly Precipitates a Tragedy. BAMBERG, S. C., April 22.-There was a romantic love affair up in the factory village yesterday afternoon in which the old lady wat not outwitted as is so often the case. Sol Goodwin was en gaged to marry Miss Ella Jones, a pre; ty young blonde of fourteen years. The old folks objected and they were to elope yesterday afternoon. Sol went for his girl who true to her word left her home to run away with him. The girl's mother was too alert for the couple, however, and rushing out in the street just in the nick of time seized Ella and had a hand-to-hand tus sle with Goodwin who persistantly re fused to leave and did not until the old lady stepped back and drawing out a 38 calibre revolyer and placing it to Goodwin's head demanded the young man to leave the premises under pen alty of having a hole bored through his brain, which he reluctantly but wisely did. The affair attracted a large crowd who witnessed the amus ing but almost tragic fight. Spartanburg's New Roller MilL SPARTANBURG, S. C., April 22.-Quiet ly, and without any great effort, a rol ler flour mill has been organized. The leading spirits in the enterprise are: J. L. Howell, George B. Dean, John Earl Bombar and A. B.

EFFECT OF LAW MAY BE DESTROYED. The Question Rests With the Permanency of the Injunction, the Latter Re Straining an Interference With the Common Carriers. CoLrumBA, S. C., April 22.-There is considerable stir in this state occasion ed by the announcement that Dr. Sampson Pope and J. F. J. Caldwell, appearing before Judge Goff, of the United States circuit court at Clark burg, West Virginia, had secured a temporary injunction in the case of "Dunbar vs the state board of control and F. M. Nixon, commissioner" which if made permanent practically destroys the effect of the dispensary law. The important portion of the order is that the defendants-the dispensary author ities, their agents, officers and employ ees and the sheriffs and police officers of the state of South Carolina or of any municipality therein be enjoined and restrained until the further order of this court from interfering in any manner whatsoever with the commerce between the states and to that end, they are hereby restrained from in terfering with the agents or employees of the common carriers in said state in any manner whatever whilst trans porting, holding, or deliverin articles of commerce brought by said common carriers into the state; or interfering in any manner whatsoever with arti cles of commerce so bronght into the state, whilst in the hands of the con signees. thereof. The rule to show cause is made re turnable before Judge Goff here on May 2. On the face of the temporary order of injunction any one ca.p order liquor shipped here to him, and it can not be.interfered with by any one, even after it is delivered-till May 2. Those who do this will of course run the risk of subsequent prosecution, if the in junction is not made permanent. Ev erybody is discussing the situation. Governor Evans, the chairman of the state board of control gave the follow ing statement last night which makes the situation doubly interesting: All the quirks and gamins have tried their hands on the dispensary, and now the little snappers have taken charge of it and attempt ing to attack. There is only one point in the case. and that is: When does liquor arrive in the state ? The matter has already been be fore Judge Simmons and they have gotten his opinion-and I suppose this is an effort to fix the other member of the United States court of appeals. Judge Goff's injunction will not be regarded by me in any sense of the word. It makes no difference what papers he serves, we will con tinue to seize every gallon of whiskey that ar rives within the state, and I construe the word 'arrive' to-mean when it gets within the bord ers of the state. and will continue to construe it till the United States supreme court holds otherwise.' If necessary, an extra force of con stables will be employed to take charge of any liquor dealers who may feel encouraged by Judge Goff's action. Any liquor brought into this state in violation of the dispensary law by Judge.Goff, Samps Pope or Fitz Caldwell will be as promptly seized and confiscated as i it were brought in by Jim Dunbar. Goff's Second Issue. CourmmrA, S. C., April 23.-Another sensation has been created by the pub lication of the fact that Judge Goff, of the United States circuit court had is mred another injunction against the state authorities on the ground that the registr'ation act of 1882 was uncon stitutional, there was sufficient fraud t the polls in the election last fall to itiate the.calling of the constitutional onvention,. that there was then a con spiracy begveen Tillman, Evans and thers to' commit frauds; that the greement between Tillman, Evans, Barnwell, Hemphill ane others was a onspiracy to defraud the negro of his ight of suffrage; that Evans as gov rnor had sought to carry out these onspiracies by removing notaries for aking affidavits from negroes; that he illegal acts of supervisers of regis ration were part of the same conspir cy, etc. The important portion of the >rder reads-as follows: It is ordered that the defendants, John Gary vans, governor of the state of South Carolina. in Butler McCoy. a commissioner of elections La the said state and all other persons charged ider the laws of the said state with the duty f holding or managing elections for delegates o a convention to be held on the second Tues lay in the month of September. 1895. far the urpose of revising, amending or changing the :onsttution of the state, be. and they are, ereby enjoined and restrained from any and ,ll action looking to the holding of such elec :ion or elections until the turther order of this :Ourt. It is further ordered that said defendants do how cause who they, and each of them should ot be perpetually enjoined fram ordering, olding or procuring to be held in the said tate, any election or elections for delegates to convention for the purpose of revising or hangng the constitution of said state of outh Carolina. And it is further ordered that the said de ~endant, John Gary Evans, make full, true and erfect answer, under oath to the interrogato es filed with the said bill, on or before the laid second day of May, 1895. Governor Evans hurls defiance at ~his order in similar language to that implyed by him in reference to the njunction against the dispensary and lelares that he will pay no attention o it. ____ __ lenator Gorman For Nationalt Chairman.

SOME INCOME TAX FIGURES. Collectors Surprised by the Large Returns From Western Cities. WAsHINGToN. April 22.-An analysis o! the income tax returns indicates that St. Louis and Chicago may pay more into the treasury than New York City. An official of the internal revenue bu reau says: The returns now at hand show marked di visions in prosperity and the centralization of wealth. The American farmer is poor. What is known as the "old South" makes the most scant returns. From Maryland to Louisiana the work of the income tax collector will be very light. It is from the west that the surprise of the income tax returns come. "The east, it is said, will not pay even half the tax. In nearly every instance, the west ern states have over-reached the estimate which the commissioner placed upon them. For instance, it was thought that the state of Texas ;ould contribute revenue amounting to about 8100.000. "But Texas promises to pay more than 8140, 000. Western cities like St. Louis and Chicago make splendid showing of prosperity, and states like Iowa. Illinois, Missouri, Texas and California bring up the returns from the pros perous west amazingly. "From St. Louis alone comes more than $500.000, and the returns from the rest of the state run this up to about 8800.000. While Ohio is not generally looked upon as differing In character from Indiana and Kentucky. yet Cincinnati and its many manufacturing towns place It far ahead in the returns received as compared with the other states mentioned. "Pennsylvania will give in a tax upon its wealth that will surprise even well posted economists." EVANS WILL NOT APPEAR. Declines to Make an Argument Before the Investigating ('ommittet. NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 22.-The at torneys for Mr. Evans yesterday sent a formal notice to the returning board declining to appear before them tonight This message was sent in answer to the notice served on the attorneys yesterday that they might appear and argne the effect of the evidence taken by the committee. The reason for this is that Mr. Evans' lawyers deemed it utterly useless for them to go about making argumenits on evidence which the committee had already decided upon for itself. In this new light, whether or not there will be any ar guments before the committee is a question. _________ GOLD IN NORTH CAROLINA.
