Our readers must accept an apology from us this week for the lack of news.

Loryea, the Druggist. W. E. JENKINSON AT HOME. The fun has commenced and you sliould come to Manning to see it. Our merchants have not woke up to a realization of the fact, but the fact is here all the same. W. E. Jenkinson has gone into his new store that is chock full of goods in season and all through his establishment can be seen and felt the spirit of pluck, push. and persever ance. He is in business to sell goods and that is why he advertises, and for the rea son that he does advertise he is doing an immense cash business. The merchant of this day and time who thinks he can sell gooda for the cash without advertising is simply deceiving himself. Jenkinson knows this and he finds that a free use of prioter's ink brings the people into his store and with the many inducements in the shape of first-class goods bought to com pete for the cash trade he sells the goods for the money and he feels content to leave the credit trade with its unsatisfactory results to the merchants who have not pbulie spirit enough to advertise their wares. Jenkinson has not been a merchant long, but he has taken full advantage of the time by intelligently conducting his business; the result is, as everybody knows that he has taken a leading position as a merchant, and his advertisements are read, discussed and scrutinized in every household in the county. He advertises to sell goods, and be sells goods, because he lets the people know that he has goods to sell. Watch this papar and then compare his sales with merchants who do not advertise and see the difference in their stocks of goods and their cash sales. WE HAVE REACHED BEYOND COUNTY LIMITS FOR NEWS. A Bright, Crispy and Newsy Letter From Kingstree. Kingstree, March 23.-Through the kindness of a friend, whilom of Manning but now of Kingstree, we have had the pleasure of perusing the columns of your excellent journal for several issues, and candor compels us to say we think it one of the fore most county papers in the State. Your able and well tempered. edi torials aire especially commendable, and they carry with them a force and weight that is productive of convic ion. We particularly admire the broad and liberal scope of your views on public questions, and your clear, concise and comprehensive style of expressing those views. For a live and all around first-class county newspaper we heartily commend the l'imes. We hope to be excused for this personal mention. We are not given to flattery, but we believe in "honoring those to whom honor is due." Messrs. Harper and Nelson have erected five tobacco barns on their plantation and will cultivate fifteen ares of the "weed" this season. Messrs. Graham and Thorne have also erected four barns and will cul tivate twelve acres. The tobacco culture seems to be gaining the ascendency over that of otton and it is likely tbat the "fleecy staple" will lose its dominion ere long, and be no longer king. We were glad to note the sugges tion of the Times to build a tobacco ware-house in Manning, and we hope her enterprising citizens will take the project in hand and carry it out to a successful issue. The growth and advancement of the South since the late war has been wonderful, and we think the time is ripe~ for the development of still greater enterprises. We need just such live and wide awake men as Capt. D. W. Alderman, of Alcolu, to develope the resources of our country. With the proper exercise of money, might and main our "beloved South land" would soon "blossom as the rose'and would enter upon an era cf progress and prosperity unparaleled in the history of any country. The matter of building a tobacco warehouse in Kingstree is being ag itated and we would urge that some of our public spirited citizens take hold of the matter and bring it to a consummation. Such an enterprise would infuse new life and activity in business circles and do a great deal to build up the town. If we would be successful we must strive to suc .ceed. It takes pluck, push and per severence to.make a success of any pursuit, and he who sits down and waits for "something to turn up" io help him on to "fame and fortune"' will be woefully disappointed and never accomplish any good. It takes active aggressive work to make an honest living in this world, and the sooner we realize the fact and bet ter ourselves the better it will be for all concerned. In this age of ad vancement and progress it behooves us to grasp every opportunity that presents itself and make the most of it. This is the only way of keeping up with the procession and we must keep our place in the onward march. Kingstree has many advantages and resources which, if properly utilized, would place her way along the line of industrial pursuits. Messrs. Lesesne & Epps, who came here trom Manning not long ago to do a mercantile business, are succeed ing fairly well. They are courteous and obliging young gentlemen and are building up for-themselves a prof itable and substantial trade. We are glad to have such young men come among us and will heartily welcome on and all who may decide to cast thei lot with us. We were pained to read the sad Adea of Mrs Robert .T. Alrlerman, ofj Great Sale proved by the statements of lead S ing druggists everywhere, show that the people have an abiding confdence in Hood's Sarsaparilla. Great Cur proved by the voluntary state Curesments of thousands of people, show that Hood's Sarsaparilla has great Powover disease by purifying, en Power riching and Invigorating the blood, upon which health and life depend. Hood's Sarsaparilla Is the One True Blood Puriner. All druggists. $I. are the only pills to take Hood's Pills with Hood-s Sarsaparila. Alcolu, in your last issue- We sym pathize deeply with the bereaved husband and friends, would commend them to Him who "doth all things well" for comfort in their sore af fliction. Mr. P. A. Alsbrook, proprietor of the County Record, is having a neat four-room cottage erected on Hamp ton street. Dr. Brockinton has had his drug store renovated which renders it a more attractive building. The "Wee Nee social club" are arranging for a grand ball to be given at the Coleman hotel on the 7th prox. Mr. J. E. Norment, the staff cor respondent of the News and Courier, has given given Kingstree a "write up" which will appear in that paper this week. Mr. W. E. Cook, of Scranton, S. C., has come to Kingstree to stay and can be found in the law offlee of Hon. T. M. Gilland. A few cases of measles have devel oped in this town, but they are not epidemic, we are glad to say. There are a good many candidates spoken of for the various county offices. The sheriff's and clerk's office seem to be the choice plums The caste of the candidates is good and we think a lively campaign will be waged next summer. So far as we have heard an expres sion of opinion, we think John S. Wilson, Esq., is the choice of our people for solicitor. All concede that he has made an able and efficient officer, and we see no reason why his services should not be retained. Factional politics seem to be dy ing out among our people, and we hope the day is not far distant when all strife and bitterness of feeling will be obliterated and that peace and unity will regain its erstwhile domin ion among us. The Coleman hotel is first-class in all its appointments and is indeed the "home of the traveling man." Man ager Barr is a big hearted whole souled gentleman, and looks well af ter the wants and comforts of his guests. Will lay aside the pencil and note book for the present, promising, how ever, to let you hear from us again soon. W. B. C. MANNING ACADEMY. The following pupils merited the medals for scholarships in their respective classes for tho week ending March 20: Collegiate. Marvin Strange; higher. Lu ille Alsbrook, intermediate. Grover Par son and Gertrude strange; primary, Alber tine Loyns. The conduct medal was voted to Cam mie Ridgill. E. C. AzLsBBooK. NINETY PER CENT. Of all the people need to take a course of Hood's Sarsaparilla at this season to pre vent that rundown and debilitated condi tion which invites disease. The money in vested in half a dozen bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla will come back with large re, turns in the health and vigor of body and strength of nerves. Hood's Pills are easy to buy, easy to take, easy to operate. Cure all ills. 25c. NOTICE OF TOWN ELECTION.

A.LEVI, ,ATTORNEY AT LAW MAJOR J. M. RICHARDSON Has Arrived Home Safely, and Gives Us an Account of His Trip. Editor Times:-We left Manning at 9:15, "Saint Patrick's Day in the morning," and homeward sped, bag gage checked to Columbia to facil itate matters at Sumter, where we hoped to find through tickets and checks ready for us. We were disap pointed; and learning that we would not have time to get Jthrough tickets and checks at Co'u nhia, we bought tickets to Atlanta, our conductor kindly consenti'g to arranae about checks for our baggage to the same place. On then we went, via Columbia, Newberry, Clinton, Elberton and Athens to Athnta, whic'h we reached on time; 6:45 p. m., without accident or any other incilent worthy of spe ical note. In Atlanta we soon found that we could not leave over the Vickeburg or New Orleans route before morning; and, as time was an element of im yoriande io us, W ?e shu t up... to the Memphis route. This "Hob son's choice" was perfectly satisfac tory to Mrs. R, who dreaded crossing the "Father of waters" on anything else than a bridge-fearing even that manner of passage over the great stream. From Atlanta-leaving at 8;20 p. m.,.central time, our ticket took us to Chattanooga, to Nashville, to Mem phis, to Texarkana, to Pittsburg-at which last place we arrived about 12 m. on Thursday, March 19, and where, only 16 miles from home, we had to wait until 3:10 p. m., \vhen, taking a local, we started again, reaching Dain gerfield about 4:15 p. m., central time, or 5:15 p. m. eastern or Manning time. We made the run in 2d. 8h., counting in various detentions at dif ferent connecting points, which de tentions amounted in all to at least 12h. - Our route was quite circuitous as to geographical lines, but the short est in time we could find, verifying the paradoxical old age-"The long est way around is often the shortest way home." Distance, now-a-days, is reckoned in hours rather than in miles; and it is a curious fact, veri fied by experience, that the distance from A to B, places far apart in miles, is not always the same as the distance from B to A, when the distance each way is reckoned in hours: that is, the time required to traverse the miles from A to B is not always the same as the time required to traverse the miles from B to A. Our trip was marred by neither ac cident tor loss of connection, nor was it marked by any incident of special note. The weather was not unfavor able, conductors and other officials were polite and attentive, and every thing proceeded harmoniously,though all the track was not smooth, nor every coach and waiting-room as tidy as it might have been. But what's the use of finding fault? Railroads and railroad officials are often un mercifully abused. How could we get along without them? Although they are not perfect, they are great conveniences-indispensable, in fact, and as nearly perfect no doubt, as their abusers are. At Memphis several young "Saw bones," as Sam Weller calls them, boarded the train and made our coach lively, but not in an unpleasant way. Whilst chatting along the route a medical incident was related, some what as follows: Dr. practiced medicine for many years with more or less success. Tiring of dosing men with boluses he determined to stuff them with sau sages. Accoi-dingly he retired from the practice of medicine and opened a tavern, waiting himself at the table upon his guests. Full of fun and quips and quirps, he one evening excited the ire of a testy stranger at supper, who, laying aside his knife and fork, looked angrily across the table at the Doctor and exclaimed "I'll have you to know, sir, that I have killed my man!" "And I'll have you to know, sir, roared the Doctor in reply, "that I have killed nmany a man!" The stranger glared at the Doctor, who was of massive frame, hesitated, but finally resumed his knife and fork, finished his supper, paid the host the customary half dollar and departed peaceably. How the Doc tor had killed his "many a man," whether with bolus or sausage or with some other weapon, he did not explain, and he waP, no doubt, well satisfied with the success of his bluffE But I must not kill you and your readers with a prosy letter, and so I'll close.
