He is now pleasantly situated with a first class sboe house an'd he is rapidly building up a good tra.e on the road.

It is the duty of a newspaper to deal lion estlv with its readers, and especially so when a pestilence is going over the coun try. Smallpox has had its effect on busi ness by preventing numbers of people from coming to town to make purchases, but we wish to say that they are unnecessarily frightened. Manning has taken every pre caution against the pest, and although the disease has been in the county for a long time, but one case has developed here. This is, in a measure, due to the vigilance of our town authorities and the board of health. The measures of prevention have not stopped yet; the town council has re quired all persons to become vaccinated. and made it compulsory, hence about every person in town has been vaccinated. The only case so far develbped here is that of Mr. W. H. Trescott, and be is re covering rapidly and will be out soon. When it is considered that the disease has been in nearly every section of the county, it is remarkable bow fortunate Manning has been to escape with only one case. There is not as much danger from the dis ease in Manning as there is in the Silver, From Our Soldier Boys. Headquarters Independent Battalion, Camp Fitzbugh Lee. Columbia. S. C., June 5, 1898. Editor THE Tntrs: In behalf of Company "D" of the Battal ion, I desire to express our thanks to all those ladies and gentlemen in and around Manning who so nobly contributed towards sending us the several boxes of eatables a fea- days since. There was an abundance, not only for our S0 odd half starved men, but for our invited guests, the commis sicned officers of the other three comnpa nies. The chief cook of the battalion kindly loaned me cups, plates, knives and forks, and in honor of the occasion and in consideration of a well-filled plate for him self, put a little extra sweetening in the coffee he gave us. The boys were loud in their praises of Clarendlon's culinary skill, and the men from North Dakota, Missouri, Georgia. Florida and North Carolina in the com pany are of the opinion that Clarendon would be a fine field in which to shake off the agony of bachelorhood when the war is over. Esne-:ially to Mrs. Breedin, Mrs. B. A. Johnson, Mrs. E. C. Alsbrook, Mrs. F. N. Wilson, Mrs. Appelt, Mrs. L. E. Huggins, Mrs. W. C. Davis, Mrs. J. W. McLeod, Mrs. W. G. King. Mrs. J. E. Kelley, Mrs. June, Mrs. Anna M. Davis, Mrs. I. I. Bagnal, Miss Alice Harvin, Miss Lucy Barron, Miss Ria Scott, the Misses Nelson and Messrs. W. E. Jenkinson, WV. M. Lewis and A. I. Barron are we indebted. The 1st lieutenant and 2d sergeant will express in person or by letter their appre ciation of some "lemon cake" sent them by the last mentioned young la dies. There is one remarkable fact to he men tioned and our friends can judge how well ttey succeeded: There were very tew in the squad for supper that night. We shall, in our privations ot the next few months, re member our kind friends at home. W. C. DAVIS, Captain, Company "D." A~oTHEE LETTER FROM CAMP. Camp Lee, Columbia, S. C., June 6, '98. Editor THE TIMEs: IThe captain, I am told, has thanked our friends tar the many nice things sent us last week, so we will not take up any more space, only to extend my in dividual than ks. Since our last letter our company has lost, by death, one of its members, Many have heard, no doubt, of our comrade Joe MLeod's death. He diedI with pneumonia on last Friday about 1 o'clock, after an ill ness of about eight days. All the attention that could be given by the best physicians, trainel nurses and comrades was giver him at the city hospital, where he was sent just as soon as the first symptoms of pneu monia were discovered. Joe was a good boy; he was never seen in bad company, he never shirked his duty; gentle, true and kind was he, and a braver man will never enlist.. We all loved him and hated to give him up, but His will must be done; his work was o'er, his time had come, he has gone to receive his re ward "Well done thou good and faithful servant."~ We extend to his family our deepest sympathy. His remains were carried to Manning on the evening train the same day. The whole battalion marched down to the depot to ay their last respects to their comrade. He was burie d at Jordan the next day with military honors. On last Thursday we were in Cuba, the boys thought. Orders came that Major Thompson would have to give up one of his companies to complete the regiment. Of course we wvere anxious until we heard that the Sumter Light Infantry, Company "B," had been assigned this honor. This leaves us with only three companies. The other company will soon be made up, as recruits are coming in rapidly. The First South Carolina Regiment left tnis afternoon for Chickamauga, and we, Ithe battalicn, had the honor of' escorting them to the depot. It was certainlv a grand sght to see 1,500 men in line. The regi ment of twelve companies is now going to the front and the battalion will leave in a day or two. While on the march to the de Ipot Major Thcmpson read twvo telegrams to us, one saying that the battaloju had been assined to General Butlei s command in V irginia and would receive orders to move at once. Major Thoapson expects to gct final or ders tomorrow and may get out of Colum biai the next day. The battalion is delight ed with t '- idea of going to Washington, if it is on tue way to Porto Rico. Thos.e wiho have not been home to bid Itheir home folks and sweetnearts good-bye may not be able to do so, as furloughs are nowv a pleasant recollection. No one will be allowed to go home, even if his wedding day is~ drawing near; the boys will now be comeled to wait until the war is over. Grls, don't cry, we will be back some of these days Outr yel 1,, 3, WL :re we? W'e are the Manning Guards, I. B. Company "D." Hip, hip, hurrah: Yours truly, Death of Private McLeod.

Yesterdta aiternoon the battalion was drawn up in line at Camp Lee, and with Ma2,jor Th'ompIIson inl commland andl t:)ib step of til~ed drums the line of mtarch to the Union station was begun.

Jones, of Newberrv, is chair man of the executive committee of he so called Prohibition party which s now trying to overthrow the organ ized democracy of the State. He has eveloped a talent for writting to the .ewspapers, but his communications rc generally in self defence. It ap ears that MIr. Jones wvas in M~anning hen Gov. Tillman called upon the anning Gaurds to go to Darlington o help preserve the peace when the reat riot was going oii. He did all e could to keel) thbe company from >beyng orders. M1r. Jones says: "I did advise the Manning millitary ompany not to go to Darlington andl would do the same thing again under similar circumstances." We dho not intend to revive the ~emories of tile Darlington insurrec tioul for it w~as an unhappy incident. A fewv words however will serve to showv how M1r. Joues acted in this mergency. when the 3Manning comn ay wa~s ordered to thle front a mob as pursuing the constables through the coun try to wreak vengeance upon them. The Darlington military com pany stood firm and was maintaining the law and preserving the peace. I'ey needed assistance and the Mlan ning comp~any was ordered to the front.. MIr. Jones then got in his work advising young men who belong ed to the militia to throw down their us when ordered to uphold tile overnment Gen. Capers was giving the same bad advice in Columbia. The Charleston companies, it is said, had shipped their armns to tile insur gents at Darlington and the Ne'w berry soldiers had thrown down their gus and gone home. The whiskey league was attempting to ship arms and ammunlition: to the insurgents, determined to destroy the State gov ernment rath~er than see the sale of wvhiskey regulated by the dispensary law. The wvhole unfortunate out break wras inspired by lawless men wvhose purpose was to bring back the grogsop system to our State. 3Mr. Jones acknowledges that he tried to keep the MIanning boys from going to Darlington. In this great crisis his ininaence wvas therefore against law and order against Till man and the State government and against Henry Thompson and the Darington militia. His influence in favor of the mob that pursued the constables and iired into a railroad train .tilled with innocent and help less women and children and in sup port of men, whlo wearing the uniform of South Carolina threw down their arms and fled to their homes rather than help to suppress an insurrection precipitatcd by whiskey men for the restoration of the unholy tratlie. MIr. Jones says ne "would do the same thing again under similar cir cumstances." lHe is executive chair man of the new party and must rep resent its views, if so, this party' I"would do the same thing again" if another whiskey insurrection should arise. In othler words they would be against the enforcement of law.-Ab bevill Medium. The Sure LGrippe Cure. There it o usei sn L-.ring roi tils ti adful inaady. ifyo:t will onl get the r h rmely.
