There is a gang of loafers in this town that should be looked after. How they liv is a mystery, for they do not work aud - pay no taxes. Something should be don to get rid of them. In the larger towni this class of individuals are hauled up and. put in a chain gang to do work on tho r streets. It is actually a shame that strong, able-bodied men should be allowed to han around in idleness, rags and filth. Some - of them have not enough clothing on theil - persons to eover their nakedness, and thel seem perfectly happy when basking in th4 sunshine or sitting around a street fire Give one of these chaps a cigarette and i few soda crackers he will get along elegant Ily all day, and at night he will get the resi from his visits to chicken coops.

If supply and de. mand could control prices we would forn; some kind of an idea what the future wil bring forth, but as supply and demand hai 'but little influence upon prices there is n< one outside of the manipulators that car give any definite guess.

It has been convincingly demonstrated that a tobacco warehoust araws a large amount of trade ti a town -and by Manning not having..such an insti r tution this year, thousands of dollars wortl .of Clarendon's tra.le went to Sumter. Dar lington, Florence. Timmonsville, and othe: ' points. Now let our business mon look t. their interests with the beginning of thu Snew year. A few hundred dollars will pu up the necessary building, and the thing will pay for itself in the first ye-ar. It mat t ters not in what part of the town the insti tution is located.

A full line of nuts, such as brazils, al monds. pecans and english walnuts, at J W. .\cLeod's - This year an effort was tuade to get graded school for Manning, it failed be cause those in charge of the matter put of their work until the 'last mnnment and die not give themselves time to examine int< the law. Now there is no excuse for a re Spetition of this failure. A graded school il needled here and it is wanted by a largi -majority. The way people should look a t a matter of this kind, is to find out what will do the most good to the greatest nunm br, and if it is found that a graded schoo will be better than our present system and will do the greatest goo.1 to the greates number. th.-n by all means we should hay< one. 'There ar,- men in every communit' opposedl to graded schiools at d any othe: r kind of free schools, bnt the majority rule: r and if th.- ioij.>rity want such a school ani they will begin the agit-tion in time ani a then comply strictly with the Ia', the wonl will be accomplishedl.

U&8 W. H. GEIGER DEAD. The Victim of Manning's Catas trophe. Our readers will remember the sad. sad. story of the conflagration of recent date in Manning and its fearful results. William H. Geiger, aged twenty-six years, and un married. was the one most seriously hurt. and after four davs of constant care and at tention, his soul winged its flight to Hi;.. the giver of souls. About two o'clock last Friday morning Willie Geiger breathed his last. He was conscious to the last and hit passing away was like a sleep. The re mains were at once prepared to be taken to the home of his family and on the morn ing passenger train the body wasataken, ac companoel by the father and tuo brotheta. Dr. R. B. Loryea. Capt. D. J. Bradham and Mr. Louis Appelt. On reaching Columbia the trip to the church was made by private conveyance, a distance of about sixteen miles across Lexington county. It being late in the afternoon when the party reached the residence of Mr. Gerard Muller it was decided to stop at his house and have the funeral Saturday. Captain Bradham and the writer remained with the corpse and the Messrs. Geiger went to their home. At eleven o'clock the body was met at the church by a large number of people, and the services were conducted by Rev. Livingston a Luthern minister. The serv ices were impressive and the sermon was magnificiently delivered. The ministers references to the deceased were grand tributes and not a dry eye was there with in the sound of his voice. After the service the body was laid to rest in the church yard by the side of his ancesters. A genuine ghost-story has yet to be at tested; but, not so a genuine blood-purifier. Over and over again it has been proved that Ayer's Sarsaparilla stands alone among medicines as the most reliable tonic-altera tive in pharmacy. It stood alone at the World's Fair.
