S.~ Cantey, has been quiteuiek at the Citadel in Charleston and we are glad to learn that he is now getting better. Dr. 3.0O.

Regular meetings of the club are held every Wednesday evening at Institute Hall at 8:30 p. m. The exer cises of the body are of a literary char acter. A boiler belonging to a mili that was be ing operated by Joe Brinson and Lewis Bennett, colored, near Bexbows, exploded last Wednesday. Sam Sessions, the en gineer, was somewhat bruised, but no fur ther damage was done. The cause of the explosion was trying to run the engine with out water. The many ftiends of Capt. I. I. Bagnal were glad to see him on the streets last Monday. The Captain is far from being strong, but we hope he will soon be him self again. He spent several hours yesterday and the day before looking at the busy merchants unpacking their fall and winter stock of goods. "Pick Leaf" smoking tobacco, 10c a package, at Brockinton's. We regret to see many of our farmers dis posing of their cotton seed. This is wrong; the seed is worth more to them than adul terated fertilizers will be. They sell cotton seed now for a nominal price and next spring they will go back in debt to buy the meal at an exorbitant price. The past should have been a bitter lesson to our farmers, and they should hereafter prac tice more wisdom. Splendid line of briar and apple pipes at I. B. Loryea's. The spirit of goaheaditiveness now being exhibited by our merchants has had a stim ulating eftect upon the business men else where, and in almost every newspaper we see there is a strong effort to compete with one another for the large amount of trade brought about by the living price of cotton. This only goes to prove that the existence of every branch of business depends on the farmer, and when that class suffers every thing suffers with it. Try our 'Only" Soap, only 5c a cake R. B. Loryea. the druggist. Mr. I. Schwartz, of the firm of Schwartz Bros. of Sumter, left last Saturday evening for New York to bay more goods for his firm. The sales in the firm's dress goods and cloak departments have been so enor mous so far this season as to necessitate the firm's representative making a second trip to the New York dry goods market-a thing almost unheard of in Sumter's trade. The goods will be shipped so as to arrive to-day or to-morrow, in order that the ladies may have an opportunity to see the latest October novelties fresh from fashion's center. Human life is held too cheaply when the individual who needs a tonic for his system, seeks to cover his wants by purchasing ev ery new mixture that is recommended to him. Remember that Ayer's Sarsaparilla has a well-earned reputation of fifty years' standing. Elsewhere will be seen an advertisement from Messrs. J. L. David & Bro., retail clothiers and gents' furnishers, Charleston. We do not hesitate to say to our readers that this firm is not only an "up-to-date" establishment, but one that can be relied upon. Any goods bought from them must satisfy or the money is refunded. They carry an immense stock-the largest and best in the city of Charleston. Their clothing is manufactured especially for them, and they pride themselves on selling clothing that will hold the shape. A gen tleman can buy from them anything he may need, either for business, wedding party or ball, and the fit will be equal to any tailor-made goods in the country. When you go to the city go there and take o look at this elegantly arranged store, and if you want something that will bring a sparkle to the eyes of your sweetheart or wife, they will show it to you. Patronize home industry is what every newspaper in the State should advocate, and we believe they do generally, but there is an industry in the city of Charleston where a couple of hundred thousand dol las is invested, and it receives very little encouragement from a source that should give it encouragement. We speak of the Palmetto Brewing Company, an institu tion built with Southern capital and man aged by citizens of this State. These gen tlemen manufacture a beer equal to any in the United States, and yet the authorities seem to prefer pratronizing the breweries of other States. We were in Charleston last week and President Doscher conducted us throgh this establishment. We were sur prised at the immensity of it. The plant~ is a very costly one and should be the pride of the State. The quality of the goods manufactured by this brewery is first-class. They make their beer of pure hops and as a tonic for nursing mothers it cannot be excelled. In another column they have their card and those of our re'ad era wanting a good, pure beer for medicinal purposes, can do no better than by order ing direct from the Palmetto Brewing Com pany. MANNING BAPTIST CHURCH. The Old Building to Be Demolished and a New One to Be Erected in the Near Future. The members of the Manning Baptist hurch, of which the Rev. J. 0. Gough is pastor, finding that their present buildirg is getting almost too small for the large congregation, which has been steadily in creasing during the past ten or eleven months, have decided to erect a larger and handsomer structure upon the site of the present old building. The new building will be fifty feet in length by thirty in width, with a seating capacity of five hundred. The 'work of demolishing the old church building will begin about the first of No vember, after which building operations wilt begin at once. Hood's Sarsaparilla, taken at this season, will make you feel strong and vigorous and keep you from sickness later on. THE MANNING ACADEMY.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is .nlv one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional reniedics. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the euitachian tube. When this tabe is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness is the result. and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its nor mal condition, bearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by citarrh, which is nothing bnt an in flamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give one hundred dollars for any ease of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars; free. F. J. CHENEY & Co., Toledo, U.

We have often seen the sombre shadows of God's Providence across the path of 'loved ones, and we have seen the wither ing frost upon the flowers of our affections with glistening tears for departed friends, but who can tell of the fraternal sadness that gathers on the brow of the Confeder ate soldier as his comrades pass away. Oh, none but him who feels it knows, and as Comrade John M. Ridgway of Com pany I, Twenty-third South Carolina Vol unteers, has crossed the last river, and, as we keep fresh the evergreen memory of our departed comrades, we silently and sadly close up the rank of our thin grey line, soon to camp with comrades on the ever green shores. John M. Ridgway served his connty in time of peace with fidelity and zeal, and as a soldier he stood bravely at the gateway of South Carolina with the starry cross. To the family of our comrade, in be half of the remnant of the old Sprott Guards, we extend a soldier's sympathy in their sad bereavement, assuring them that behin d these dark, sombre shadows -Christ is all." A. J. I. St. Paul, S. C., Oct. 12, 1895. Ayer's Hair Vigor, which has outlived and superseded hr.ndreds of similar prepara tions, is undoubtedly the most fashionable as well as economical hair-dressing in the market. By its use, the poorest head of hair soon becomes luxuriant and beautiful. A NEW CHURCH BUILDING Being Erected Upon the Ruins of the Trinity A. M. E. Church. The ground for the rebuilding of the Trinity A. M. E. church, which was totally destroyed by fire, recently, together with the parsonage and other buildings, has been cleared, and operations for the erec tion of a new temple of worship will be begun to-day. Almost immediately after the destructiou of the old church Parson Brown set about devising means for the erection of another. It may be said that the almost immediate rearing of another building upon the ashes of the other is due to the untiring efforts of the parson and his assi-stants. The contract for the new building has been awarded to Mr. W. S. Harvin. The structure is to be an exact counterpart of the one destroyed. This will furnish employment to a great many men, as its completion will be pushed rapidly forward. BUCKLEN'S ARNICA SALVE.

Druggist, Beaversvilla, Ill., says: - "To Dr. King's New Discovery I owe my life.

DAYTHE HIGHEST PRICE FOR COT Editor: Lse allow me a few lines in your to call the attention of the people to what will soon be.a press ing need upon them. For the past two years our people have been more economical than they have ever been since that period just after the war. This economy was necessary on their part. For several years past now cotton has been going down, and our farm ers found themselves falling behind year after year, until for the past two years they had to get along without buying scarcely anything. They have not bought what they actually needed, and they were wise in so doing; but now cotton has gone up to 8+ cents, and better times are ahead. Our farmers can afford to fill this pressing need - that of supplying themselves with substantial CLOTHING AND SHOES. Judging from the past few winters the ap raching one bids fair to equal them all in severity, and this only further emphasizes your need of shoes and clothing. Anticipating your needs in these lines, I have put myself in' position to supply your wants, and to do so at the greatest possible advantage to you. I had something to say to you last week abou t my full line of clothing, anid concerning that line I will only say that since I last wrote you I have gotten in so:e~ more nice clothing, wvhich makes my stock all the more complete. Now I want to call your attention to shoes. Remembier I am the only house in Clarendon that handles They scarcely need any praise; they advertise themselves after the first pair is worn ; an absolute guarantee goes with each pair ; they are sold at a small profit, 'the price being stamped on the' box, and not a cent more or less than this price can be received for them. Then I handle the celebrated HINE & LYNCH men's shoes, which are unsurpassed for neatness and durability. E. P. REED'S AND WEYL MIAN' S LADIES' SHOES are unsurpassed. I can sell ladies' shoes from $1 up, notwithstanding the great advance in leather. I have on hand a lot of ladies' spring-heel shoes ; also shoes for old ladies-soft, broad-toe, low-cut and flat heel; also children's shoes, all sizes, and men's and women's cheap shoes. B~ut I can not tell you all. You arc invited to call and see. Full line of ladies', men's and chil dren's rubber shoes ; also gossamiers, mackintoshes, etc. Next week I shall probably tell you more about hats, umbrellas, gents' neekwear, trunks, valises, notions, etc. You are cordially invited to come in and examine, even if you do not buy.
