Petitions are being circulated thre'igh *out the State soliciting signatures, asking the Citadel Board of Visitors to reinstate the 64 boys who were expelled from that institution recently.

Look-look-go to B3rockinton's for that wonderful Celery Compound, only $1. per. bottle. Next to M. Levi's. Two cases of smallpox have broken out in Sumter and it has caused the people great anxiety. The board of health has taken prompt measures to prevent an epi demic. A lady visiting this place from Sumter was about to return home last Mon .iay morning and while waiting for the ar rival of the train she was handed a telegram from her husband telling her to remain in Manning, as the pest had broken out in that city. Rhame's White Pine Balsam will cure that cough which keeps you awake at night. The Democratic ciubs of Clarendon coun ty are to assemble at their respective places on the 30th inst. to elect delegates to a county convention and to name a member of the~County Executive Committee. There should be a good attendance at all the *clubs as this year will be full of election interest. There will be a number of issues involved and the voters will have an op portunity to j ud'ge of men and measures on their merit. Rhame's White Pine Balsam is guaran teed to relieve the worst coughs and sore S no doubt be a great relief to the -a .- f this county to learn that it has newded that tbe government cannot - .- -nemnber of the State militia out of ted States, and if the Governor is .pon to order out the militia, they used to defend the State from inva sion. The probability is, that if the Gov ernor of South Carolina is called upon to order out his force, they will be sent to Beanfort, Georgetown and Charleston. It is a great leap from the old-fashioned doses of blue mass and nauseous physics to, the pleasant little pills known as DeWitt's Little Early Risers. They cure constipa tion, sich headache and biliousness. R. B. Loryea, Manning; L. W. Nettles, Foreston; H. L. Wilson, Jor dan. Died last Sunday evening, at his home in Manning. Mr. Ashby H. Bell, aged. about 27 years. The funeral took place Monday at Oak Grove church. The de ceased leaves a wife and a child a year old the day of its father's death. Mr. Bell was a printer by trade and for many years he worked on Tn: TDlIEs and only gave it up wvhen his health forced him. He was, when in health', a faithful worker and a trusted employee and by his high integrity won We would call the attention of the town authorities to the pasturing of cows in the streets. The owners of these cows entrust them to little negroes who take up their time in playing instead of watching their charges, and it often happens that little children are frightened by the cows being on the sidewalks. We know that cows must be pastured and some one has to drive them. but the authorities should re quire of the owners that their cattle be not permitted to feed on the sidewalks. A toroid liver robs yon of ambition and ruins your health. DeWitt's Little Early Risers'cleanse the liver, cure constipation and all stomach and liver troubles. Rt. B. Lorvea. Manning; L. W. Nettles. Foreston; H. L. Wilson, Jordan. The Manning Guards may be called into service before many weeks and we feel sure that, although their attendance upon drills has been slim, Clarendon will have no rea son to feel ashamed of them when the bu gle blast is sounded. The Manning Gaards of '61 made a record that Time will never blot out and the same blood flows through the veins of the Manning Guards of '98. When Captain Davis receives orders to go forward, every man on his company roll will respond; there will be no laggards. Thirty-five years make a generation. That is how long Adolph Fisher of Zanas ville, 0., suffered from piles. He was cured by using three boxes of DeWitt's Witch Ha zel Salve. R. B. Loryea, Manning; L. W. Nettles, Foreston; H. L. Wilson, Jordan. Last Thursday afternoon the new coun cil was sworn in and tby elcteed Messrs. George H. Huggins and Samuel J. Clark po licemen and Mack Richardson lamp-lighter, after which they took a recess until even ing, when they elected Mr. E. J. Browne Clerk and Treasurer; that gentleman quali fied on Saturday and the books and papers were turned over to him. The new coun cil has on hand a qaantity of disinfectants which it will soon have distributed, and we understand they expect to have the artesian well gone into again, to see if a better flow cannot be had. Children like it, it saves their lives. We mean One Minute Cough Cure, the infalli ble remedy for coughs, cold.,, croup, bron ehitis, grippe and all throat and lung trou bles. R. B. Loryea. Manning; L. W. Net tes, Foreston; H. L. Wilson, Jordan. The Manning Minstrel troupe appeared last Friday night before a large audience in the Institute hall and from start to fin ish they were the recipients of applause. One of the features of the evening was the trio by Messrs. Joe Wells, Joe Rhame and Joe Gough; these three black Joes brougbt down the house. The boys did very well and their performance was an. improve ment on the Mayesville troupe. We under stand that this troupe propose in the near future to visit Packsville and we would also advise them to go on to Washington and appear before the angry Congress; perhaps they might succeed in smoothing the wrinkles out of the brows of our belliger ent statesmen and put them in such a good humor that the war idea would be driven from their minds. The farmer, the mechanic and the bicy cle rider are liable to unexpected cuts and bruises. DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve is the best thing to keep on hand. It heals quickly and is a well known care for piles. R. B. Loryea, Manning; L. W. Nettles, For eston; H. L. Wilson, Jordan. We have received a letter from Col. D. W. Brailsford. commander of Harry Ben bow Camp, informing us that on account of a previous engagement which cannot be broken, Miss Lucie Barron, one of the maids of honor to accompany the veterans to Charleston, will be unable to go. and that in her stead Miss H enrietta Brailsford, a charming daughter of Capt. A. M. Brails ford, has been appointed. We regret ex ceeding that Miss Barron is prevented from taking this trip because we know that her gentle manners and sunny disposition would add much to the pleasure of the bat tescarred heroes, but she has a double in Miss Brail'sfor., who is s'veet sixteen and an elegant entertainer. The veterans will have a sponsor and maids of honor who will, by their loveliness, make the entrance into the "City by the Sea" a halo of glory and a pathway of' roses. A little boy asked for a bottle of "get up in the morning as fast as you can;" the druggist recognized a .househeld name for "DeWitt's I-ittle Early Risers," and gave him 3 bottle of those famous little pills for constipation, sick headache, liver~ and stomach troubles.

A startling incident, of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject, is narratted by him as follows: "I was in a most dreadful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no ap petite-gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Fortunately, a friend advised trying Elec tric Bitters; and to my great joy and sur prse, the first bottle made a decided im provenent. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed the grave of another victim," No one should fail to try thema. Only 50 ets per bottie at 1R. B. Loryea's Drug Store. 6 All Aboard For Charleston. We received from a railroad official this morning the following letter: On Tuesday 26th inst. We will run a special train from Columbia to Charleston, leaving Columbia at 3 p. m. passing Sum ter about 4: 15 and Mi.nning about 4:45. This train will be rtin c n account of the U. C. V. Rteunion at Char'eston, and on it we will carry Camp Hams. ton and its friends from Columbia; also +he Sumter Camp and Harry Benbow CamF. We would also like to take the good people from Claren don who may wish to go. T1,is train will reach Charleston at 6:30 p. w. Goe to Charleston. Editor Thz Tinrs: Please give us a short space in your pa per this week to say that we will probably leave Manning Tuesday, 2eth, about 4 p. m. for Charleston. An extra train has been promised which will arrive in Charleston before sundown, so all who desire to go must be in Manning and report to me be fore 2 o'clock of that day. Any one can go for $1.65 round trip, and we would be glad for as many friends to accompany us as possible. We feel satisfied that we will have accommodations in the city for at least twenty old soldiers, and others can be ac commodated about the city for $1 a day, so no one need stay away. Dinner will be served at 2 o'clock on Tuesday end badges furnished to the Veterans. Col. Brailsford wil be down early that day (unless he has to go to war before that time) and arrange all necessary papers. Let everybody come. Damtr J. BnaDHaa. CASTOR IA For Tnfants and Children. The Kind You Haye Always Bought Bears the Resorting to Slander. There appeared a communication in te Sunday News signed James 'i. Ilolhue', which undertakes to condeinn CadeL Ca-n t:y upon a statement from an expelled cadet, and the fllowing day Cadet Catacy replies with the folowing c,trd: To the Editor of tie News and Courier: Heretofore I have thonht it my place to have nothing to say concerning the recent events in o.. corps, as the authorities have had the matter in baud, and I consile: all the charges madc against me in the news papers sufficiently met by their actionb; hut when such an infaimous and icious falsehood as apueazed in a couiuinniegtiou to the Sunday News. is published against me. I think It my place to publicly deny it. I still desire to have nothing to say concerning the matter except to deny thati statement. Mr. James G. Holmes states positively (his authority being a "reliable, expelledi cadet') that I, finding that I had "'unwit tingly caught one of iny friends in t1. "trap set for first-class men," sent hi: word that I had !et the trap for irst-chtss men who were down on me, andi wonl not have made the report if I hatl known that my friend would suffer. I would simply state that this is an infamous, taaliciaoL and Dremeditated falsehood. I have never thought nor said anything that could be so constmued. SAMrEL 0. CANTEY. Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

NONE SO BLIND AS WILL NOT E We Recommend 1o the Writer the itead ing of Cantey's Statement. Editor Tn TimEs: You did right in upholding Cadet Cantey in his stand in that most tin fortunate affair. He is a Clarendon boy, and I believe THE MANNING TIsms is the only paper published in the county. Sad indeed would have been the situation had his conduct been such that his own county paper could say no word of praise. But what I wish to call your attention to is your trying to make a hero of him, and load him down with the honor of his father and uncle. If you admired the zeal of the young man and de sired to praise him for his keen sense of duty and his daring to do it, even when not on the post of duty, do it, of course, give him all the credit he is entitled to, for his own actions, but none that belongs to others. Give honor or blame where it is due. I would not withhold a mite, but give no more, as the poet expresses it, "Neither praise or blame unduly." The board did perfectly right in expelling sixty-four refractory stu dents, for certainly we all know they were not expelled for trying to de fend their "schoolboys' code of hon or," but for their disregard of supe rior officers and teachers. They have been sufficiently punished and de serve some sympathy. They never dreamed that it would drift into any thing more than showing a school boy's disapproval of a "tell-tale." Cer tainly they carried it too far when they defied authority and let anger get~ the better of reason. But, Mr. Editor, we must remember that they were only boys, and have charity for them. Who of us have not boys at home that have not their own idea of honor and loyalty? Give the boys the same opinions we accord Cadet Cantey, that they were conscientious in their actions, though to older and wiser heads they were mistaken. But others have made mistakes. They were not soldiers on the battlefield that deserted ranks or betrayed their country; they were only school-boys, with proud, fond mothers at home, with fathers equally as much con cerned about the welfare of their sons. as Cadet Cantey's was of his. Knowing the power of the press and your paper being the only one published in the county, I beg you not to warp the minds of your read ers; be generous to the unfortunate boys, and lend a helping hand to have them reinstated. Cadet Cantey being conscientious in doing what he considered to be his duty, let him show true manhood now; prove to the world he has no malice towards his schoolmates. Let him urge his father to call a meeting of the citizens of this county and ask to have his schoolmates reinstated. Such a meeting has been held in Laurens and should be held in every county in South Carolina asking that the decision of the board be revoked, it not being as inexorable as the "laws of the Medes and Persians." Let Clarendon have the grandest meeting of all, urged on by Cadet Cantey and presided over by his father; that indeed would show "a worthy son of a worthy sire." _ R. E. Manning, April 18, 1898. Bears the qThe Kind You Have Always Buught of Foreston Items. Editor THE TDIF.s: I see in the last issue of THE TIEs that there is to be an entertainment to which the public is invited at Mr. C. R. Harvin's'on the evening of the 21st for the benefit of the Thornwell Orphanage, and the admission fee is one of the novelties of the occasion; at the door you pay according to age. I don't mind the 81 cents for so wor thy an object, but I am like some of the fair sex, I don't wish it to be known how many summers I have "trod this mundane sphere." Please see the committee and ask them to put a mute at the door who can't tell tales out of school. Last week our Woman's Foreign Missionary Society had a social meet ing at the Methodist church and gave us quite a treat in the way of music and addresses to the surprise of every one. They sang "From Greenland's Icy Mountains," and didn't take up a collection, to the gratification of all present. Our pastor is a natural born singer; he has improved our church! music very much and he is a fine preacher and a good pastor, but some times he forgets to observe the stop. Our merchants are holding down the door steps, while the farmer is planting 4c cotton to buy corn and bacon; they can't get anything to. lean on unless they plant cotton, Don't forget to see the committee and ascertain if we will have to pay for fractional parts as we do to Uncle Sam's establishments, Yours till the 21st, H. Foestn S C. Apnril 15, 1S9S. New Zion News. c to ''HE TIMES: Well, it's a funny thing to see the people collecting every week to hear the news about the great war that is about to be fought between the Unit ed States and Spain. Mr. Editor. while the war question is the topic of the day, rush out your paper to this office so we all can get the news too, for there is some one to read the news to others just as soon as THE TIFrs 2ets here. Some of the Salemites will laugh and some will almost cry over the idea of going to war with a little nation like Spain. I will say just here, don't grieve over such, but plant your cottou, for it is a good time to plant. I am so glad that I don't live right on the public road, for every man that passes by will say, "What is the news about the war?" Then vou may stand and talk one homu probably to a man that has work at home to (io, while the time and tide may not wait for the mai. Ai, my .riends, how often have I seen the man wait for the tide. I have seen the laboring man-the honest toiler-kill so much of his valuable time fooling with 5-cent cotton. Just as soon as war is declared be tween the United States and Spain J will enlist, and I believe others will follow, tbough I do not favor war at all, but if it is declared by Congress I an ready to aid President McKin ley, for all the way through this try ing time of the war question Mc Kinley has been asking for peace and if a set of officers run it over him then he will stand in my estimation as high as George Washington ever did. President McKinley realizes the seriousness of the situation I suppose and has plated it in the hands of Congress. I LIope that Congress will reflect credit upon our nation in the action they take upon the war ques- I tion. En GREEN. New Zion, S. C., April 16, 1898.
