Was Takien In.
We have often read of the work of con
fidence men, an d the sliek tricks of bunco
steerers., of gold brick brokers and other
swindlers. but these thaings generally occur
in a crowded city where men are too busy
to stop to think about such things: bu: the
slickest trick we ever heard of was worked
in Manning one day last week upon a
gentleman living no't a hundred miles from
Davis Station. He was at one of the livery
stables and there became involved in a
discussion about the DeSehamps case: the
party with whom he was talking duffred
with~ him and the argum-nnt waixed warm
and warmer until our friend was called a
liar, and being of a spirit. a nature he felled
the man with a single blow. Realizing
himself in town, he turned t, leave while
the fellow was picking hiuself up.
but before h-e had gon' mny ss
another mtan, repcrsentintig hmelf
to be a town pohCl-ima, caight him by the
arm and arresed him, with the remark that
be had violated a town ordinance and it
was either a "put up" of $1v 0 o'r-) to the
guard house. The gentleman from n nar
Davis Station would not be humiliatd by
going to the guard house for ten tins m10,
so without questioning the athority of the
man who arrested him, he ran hai; hand
into bis vest poeset and haol out the re
quired ten and gave it up. Tie pretended
oficer took the money, reletasd his prison
er, and left to mingle with the rest of the
world without dis1osing his identity, not
leaving as much as his card. W hen we
heard of the incident we di act cred't it
and thought the matter a joke, bat after
talking with the man mainus ten we are con
vinced that he was "hoo-looed" out of his
lucre.
THE GRANDEST REMEDY.
Mr. R. B. Greeve, merchant, of Chit
howie, Va , certifies that he hal consumrp
tion, was given up to die, sought al medi
cal treatment that money eould procure,
tried all cough remedies he could hear of.
bt got no rchef;spent many nights sitting
up in a chair; was induced to try Dr. King's
New Discovery, and was cared by use of
two bottles. For past three years has been
attending to business. and says Dr. King's
New Discovery is the grandest remedy ever
made, as it has done so much for him and
also for others in his community. Dr.
King's New Discovery is gnaranteed for
Coughs, Colds and Consumption. It
don't fail. Trial bottles free at R. 13.

A Graded School.
We ate glad to learn that steps are being
taken to arouse onir people on the graded
school question and that a petition is being
circulated for the signatures of freeholders,
as the law requires. This is a question
which will commend itself to the consider
ation of every man, woman and child, be
cause all are interested alike and the mat
ter is for the general welfare of the town.
\anning has a population of nearly L.500
and the promise is, that in a few years
th ouain will be doubled. It is our
dut togetoutof the old beaten track and
btake.ourselves to the progress that is in
v .elsewhere. There is no town the
se 0;Manning in this State so far behind
in school facxlities, not that the scbools we
have here are not as good as those else
where, but they are not within the reach of
all. A graded school supported by taxation
will put our school faeilities within the
reach of the poor as well as the rich and the
burden is borne according to the property.
We want to see a graded school here, be
cause it will be an inducement for people
to move to Manning. Our population will
increase the faster and every line of busi
ness will be quickened. Do not let this
effort fail, and let every freeholder wyork
for this much needed institution.

DANGERS OF THE GRIP.
Tne greatest danger from La Grippe is
of its resulting in pneumonia. If reason
able care is used, however, and Chamber
lains Cough Remedy taken, all danger will
be avoided. Among the tens of thousands
who have used this remedy for la grippe,
we have yet to learn of a single caae hav
ug resulted in pneumonia, which shows
conclusively that this remedy is a certain
preventive of that dreaded disease. It will
efet a permanent cure in less time than
any other treatment. The 23 and 5) cent

A Brilliant Young Lawyer Movies to a
Larger' Field.
F. Barron Grier, Faq , of Kingstree,
spent a few day inMang before leav
ing for his newly chosen tield of labors.
IMr. Grier goes to Greenwood, S. C., to
Iopen ani office and to make that prosperous
Itown his future home. He will succeed,
because the p)ople of that section are ener
getic and progressive andl in their new
townsman they will have a man whose
ability will assert itself and by his me-ri
torious power and his unsullied integrity,
there is no obstacle large enough to ob
struct his passage to the front. Mr. Grier
does not leave Kingstree for the lack of
clients, but on the contrary, his practice~
wvas second to-none at that bar, and he was
fast making his reputation as a lawyer : he
leaves Kingstree because his love ior his
profession and his ambition to g.ro-. in it,
makes him crave a larger field, lie is a
close student, painstaking in the prepara
tion of his cases and an honorable mua'.
We feel that in his new field of action his
opportunities will be greater and that his
many friends in Manning, ais well as K ng+
tree, while they reget to part with him, yet
they feel that his ability to properly develop
itself must of necessity have a more ex
tended field. We but voice a general s-.n
timent when we wish Mr. Grie- a "may you
live long and prosper."
Hood's Sarsaplarilla is known to be an
honest muedicine~and' it actually cures when
all others fail. ?ake it now.

THE COURT.
As "nt to pres last week the
case of Sam Thi-pen. clarged with
assault and battery of a hii and
aggravated naturowith intent to kill.
was being tried and froi the test
miony, it appears that Mr. Thbigpen
had been annoved very much by a
niegro, the prosecutor, whose name
i Eugene R ichbourg and who made
it a practice of passin-gMr. Thigpen's
house imak ing objectionable remarks.
and sing'ing tantalizing songs.
(ole of which starts: "I ain't like
)ukra no howi he eve so keen, and
he head so sharp, ain't like bukra no
how.' When Mr. Thigpen remon
strated with Richbourg and several
times cautioned him not to continue
his objectionable eondunet the darkey
cursed Imin ml an outrageous manner
and on the :rd of JaInuarv Richbourg
again went by with his insulting
manner. Thigpen's patience was
exhausted and with a shotgun in his
hands he went out to make the fel
low shut up. The negro. instead of
becoming- frig'htened tt the sighmt of
the gui. becaie eiboldened and
drew a pistowhereupon Mr. T!hi
pen fired and put a load of shot into
him.
On the examination the Solicitor
required the prosecutor to repeat a
verse of the song lie sang when pass
ing Thigpeu's, in order that the jury
might determine whether or not the
same was calculated to be offensive.
Here is what the coon Richibourg.
said he sang:
gmy grabe widi a sil rs
GiCU Cbain lit Ume dwn
Mar"te mtne at le h l, Of my l rah
To 'meCmber re dlrlin when I'm gone."
The jury remained in the room
until nearly mitnight, when the
judge had them called out and after
ascertaining that it was impossibIe
for the jury to agree a mistrial -was
ordered. We learned the jury stood
six for conviction - and six for ac
quittal.
On Thursday morning the first ease
called was against Zachariah H.
Duncan. indicted for assault with
intent to kill and carrying concealed
weapons. The defendant was absent
and the case was put on trial in hisi
absence. The prosecutor was Charles
T. Duncan, a brother of the accused.
These two brothers fell out about
soni money matters. The jury said
Zachlariah was guilty of assault of
a high and aggrated nature.
The next case w .s a-a'ust a young
blac k buck by the name of Sam Nei
on. indicted for housebreaking and
lareenv. He broke into a store be
longing to Bennie Bell, at Davis, and
stole therefrom several articles of
merchandise. The defendant had
no lawyer and p-obably it was best
that he had none, as the jury
promptly found him guilty and had
lie a lawyer he could have fared no
worse.
Then the case of Charlie 3MeFaddin.
charged with househreaking and
larceny, was begun. The accused is
charged with breaking into the store
house of Rev. R. A. Sublett, of Sum
merton, and stealing therefrom a lot
of seed cotton. MIeFaddin is ind'cted
with Chester Jeffersou and Cheivine
Jefferson.but his colleagues were not
put on trial with him. After the
testimony was taken, it showed the
proof to be entirely circumstantial
without sufficient connecting links
to convince the jury of the guilt of
the prisoner and the jury wvere not
very long in bringing out a verdict
of not guilty. 3Iaj. A. Levi repre
sented the accused.
Next was Isaae Rhame, Jr., Ben
Rhame and Isaac Rhame, the former
a mere lad and the latter an aged
darkey about 70 years of age. They
were tried and convicted for
breaking into the store of MIr. R. H.
Griffin. near Pinewvood. Capt. W. C.
Davis represented the accused.
On .Friday. the case of Will MIeFad
din and Robert Rush, charged with
breaking into the mill hoase of James
Hudson in Salem, wvas tried, that is.
the defendant Rush wvas tried, his
colleague wvas not present and Rush
was tried by himself. The testimony
was not clear and the jury could not
agree. A mis-trial wvas ordered. R.
A. Stewvart w;as defendant's lawyer.
On Saturday, Solicitor Wilson nol
prossed cases for violation of the Dis
pensary lawv against the following
persons: Rufus Brunson. WV. H.
Dyson. August Johuson and Pat
Johnson. He stated to the court that
the witnesses whomi the State relied
upon claimed they knew nothing
about the cases and it wiould be use
less to give out a bill under those
conditions.
In the Common Pleas several orders
wvere taken out by the members of
the bar and the only jury ease was
that of Boschette against Coskrey
for the recovery of land and it result
ed in favor of the defendant.
We think it p)roper to state that
owing to the many rumors which
grew out of the lamentable killing of
Thomas K. Rhame by Ralph S. De
Schamps, ther'e w'as nothing in the
testimnon" adduced on the witness
stand which gives time slightest foun
dation for scandal. The entire testi
mony from both sides showed De
Schamps to have acted1 in self defence
against a man whio.n lhe had thme
kindest feelings for, but who, unfor
tunately, must have been crazed by'
strong drink and did not know whlat
he "'as doing wshen hie shot at his~
frienid anmd guest.
i'he following sentences were im
p)osed:
Isaae Rhamie, .Jr., six months in
jail : Ben Rhanme anid lsaae Rhame,
nine months in the pemi tent iamry:
Zachariah 1U. Duncan, scaled sen
tence : Sam Nelson. one y.ear. i i
tentiary or one veam' on _chmaiin gamng.
The motion for a new trial being rec
fused in the case of Willie Cooper.

handed us by the Solicitor'.
Wec have applol inted a commn:ittee to
examine into the condition of the
counity jail. Thmis commnittee hiave
miade their exanmination, and find
that the condition of the jail is as
good as it could be expected to be, or
as good as tihe building will allow.
The present jail is a pour affair and
wve consider it unsafe, but we feel it
unnecessary to make aniy recoin
mendationis in regard to this mat teir
as~ the people of the county, in the
last election, voted dowvn a tax levy~
fom' the purp'lose of erecting a newv
jail. We will say, however, that the
coumnty is sadly in need of a news jail,
as has been r'epeatcdl y recommended
in former presentments. and we hope
that the peopile of time county will
comle to a realization of this fact and
aillow' ' suflicient tax levy' to be made
to erect a niewi one.
