B. Loryea, Manning; L. W. Nettles, For eston; H. L. Wilson, Jordan. Col. John P. Thomas, the State's histo rian, passed through Manning last Thurs, day on his way to Summerton to see Col H. L. Benbow with reference to the mak ing up of the Confederate rolls, and i conversation with him he informed us tha the outlook for the Citadel Academy wa very bright and he thinks the people wi! rally to that institution more than ever since the Citadel authorities took the posi tion they did in the Cantey matter. I proved to the people that a breach of d:~ cipline will not be tolerated, an d he furthe said that he~ as a trustee or a member of th Board of Visitors, took great pleasure endorsing and approving of Cantey We have been informed that the Seloc package of Tr Ti-tas failed to reach its destination last week, and a similar condi tion existed at Packsville the week before. We regret this very much, but the fault is not with us, ani must be with the. uail routes, because we are very careful with our papers, and make it a specialty to see that each package of THE T rins is mailed 1 rowl tlv on time. It is our idea that the taekagc is taken out at the postofices on the star route before they reach their desti 1 nation. We will thank the postmasters to inform us in the future whenever TuE TIaEs fails to make its appearance and then we will make complaint to the government, who will send an inspector to tind where the fault is.

Every bottle guaran teed or price refunded. 3 Teachers' InstItute. The Teachers' Institute held in Manning last week, and conducted by Professor S. H. Edmunds, superintendent of the Sum ter graded schools, assisted by Professor E. C. Coker, superintendent of the Marion graded schools, was a success as far as ben eticial results are concerned. Those teach ers who attended were greatly benefited, and the fruits of the Institute will be felt in .e public schools whoso teachers at tended. We cannot understand why the attendance was so small; not near all of the teachers that draw money from the school fund were present, and as the State pro vides these opportunities for teachers to learn the latest and most improved nieth ods of teaching without cost to the teacher, their remaining away is at mystery. The work of the Institute was divided, and Professor Edmund- discussed each day in a very clear manner English, Physiology and School Government. Ihs address the last day of the session on School Govern ment was worth an audience of every school teacher in the State, and the pa rents of children as well. Professor Coker's work consisted of prac tical illustrations in Arithmetic. He also gave fine lectures on History and Reading. Professor Snyder of Wofford College was to deliver an address on Tuesday evening, but owing to the late arrival of the train it was postponed until Wednesday. He gave an instructive talk on the Teaching of En glish and the substitution of English class ics for the ordinary reading books, after which his promised address on tne "School house" was delivered. We have heard many addresses on many subjects, but we have yet to hear a more unique, up-to-date and mind-reaching lecture. It was deliv ered in a superb manner and it is to be regretted that the court hcuse was not packed with listeners. Professor Griffiths of Furman University gave a talk on Writing Compositions, and afterwards delivered a well-prepared ad dress on "Soul Culture." The last day of the proceedings was de voted t, the usual exercises with the addi tion of a splendid talk on Anatomy by Pro fessor Edmunds from an illustrated chart. At the conclusion of the exercises Pro. fessor Edmunds thanked Miss Carrie 1egg for furnishing music and flowers, and the teachers for their good attention. Superintendent Richbourg, in behalf of himself and teachers, rose and in appro priate language thanked Messrs. Edmunds and Coker for their magnificent conduct of the Institute and expressed the hope that next year they both will be sent back here, and the attendance will be more general. Valuable to Women. Especially valuable to women is Browns' Iron Bitters. Backache vanishes, headache disappears, strength takes the place of weakness, and the glow of health readily comes to the pallid cheek when- this won derful remedy is taken. For sickly children or overworked men it has no equal. No home should be without this famous remedy. Browns' Iron Bitters is sold by all dealers. Another Soldier Boy Crosses the Rlver. Died at his home at Brogdon's last Wed nesday night, Private J. Fant Stuktes, aged 23 years. The deceased was the only son of Mr. and. Mrs. J. Carson Stakes, and his death is naturally a severe afiliction to them. When the present war was declared and a call for volunteers was made Mr. Stukes repnddad connected himself with the reanin Gad.He became a true sol dier from the beginning, and when the heavy hand of affliction was laid upon him, his mind was constantly on his duties. He took sick with typhoid malaria about five weeks ago, and after a short while in the camp hospital he asked to go to his mother and he was permitted to go home. l'he disease continued its work, bafling the skill of his physicians and the loving at tentions of his family. At one time the sunshine of hope found its way into the household and everything pointed to his recovery. He was able to sit up and, al though very weak, be could walk about the house. A relapse set in and speedily he was gathered to his long rest. The news of his death was a shock to his many friends here,and many an expression of sympathy was there,for the family whose hearts are lacerated by this terrible bereave ment. Captain Davis, in response to a telegram, commanding the following detail, Sergeant Tisdale, Privates Clark, Enos Cockerel, Newton Cockerel, Ingram, Gatrdner, King and Tiller, came down from Columbia and Iattended the funeral as an. escort of honor to their dead comrade. The body reached Manning at 5:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon accompanied by a large procession of sor rowing~ friends from the Brogdon section, and on arrival were joined by another large concourse of friends. The funeral took place in the Manning cemetery with a religious service conducted by Rev. J. 0. Gough, assisted by Revs. McDowell and Hodges, after which the body was laid away for its long sleep with military honors. The Best Remedy for Flux. Mr. John Mathias, a well known stock dealer of Pulaski, Ky., says: "After suffer ing for over a week with flnx, and my phy sican failed to relieve me, I was advised to try Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhea Rtemedy, and have the pleasure of stating that 'the half of one bottle cured me." For Eale by Rt. B. Loryea, the drug gist. Farmers' institute at Clemson College. A Farmers' Institute will be held at Clemson College from August 8th to 15th, 1898. A course of lectures on agricultural and seientific topics will be delivered by Ithe professors of the college. Distinguished :1visitors from abroad will make occasional addresses. The leading railway systems have offered reduced rates. If the president of the col lege is notified in advance, hacks will meet the trains~ at Calhoun and Cherry's. board and lodging will be furnished for 5 cents per day. The beds are not pro. vded with sheets. Visitors are expected to brng sheets and towels. Ladies will not be received in the barracks. A limited number can be provided for at the botel. A cordial invitation is extended to the pub. lic to attend the Institute. About one month ago my child, which is fifteen months old, had an attack of diar rha accompanied by vomiting. I gave it such remedies as are usually given in such cases, but as nothing gave relief, we sent for a physie:an and it was under his care afor a wveek. At this time the child had been sick for about ten days and was hav ing about twenty-five operations of the bowels every twelve hours, and we were convinced that unle..s it soon obtained re lie it would not live. Chamberlain's Colic, tCholera and Diarrhea Rtemedy was recom Imended, and I decided to try it. I soon rnoticed a change for the better: by its con e tinued use a complete cure was brought about and it is now perfectly haeathy.--C. L. BSoggs, Stumptown, Giilmer Co., .W . Ya. rsalec by IT 33 Toa , the drnggkt. The most careful and conservative esti mates of politicians in Colnmbia and else where, whom we have met in the last ten days, reach the conclusion that the race for Governor lies between Governor Ellerbe and Mr. Featheistone, and that they are al most ceitain to make a trial of strength be fore the people in the second primary. This conclusion is mainly predicated upon the fact that they are the only candidates in the field who will get votes at nearly all the precincts in the State, which is an ele. ment of strength that always tells most for cibly.mii elections. A race between them will be a direct test for or against the dis pensary.-Greenville Mountaineer. Bears the The Kind You Have Always Bought signature of ~~~z Let Them Speak Ont. Being a believer in the restrictions which the dispensary law puts on the sale of liquor, this newspaper is consequently opposed to the Prohibition party which would authorize drug stores to sell liquor at cost as a medicine. The open bars are more desirable than a drug store full of liquor, surrounded by unscrupulous doc tors who Pllow their patients to name the medicine that they need. If some of the Prohibitionists will tell us what whiskey is good for as a medicine we might change our mind, and join the Prohibition crowd who won't furnish their thirsty neighbors with liquor at cost. Let all temperance people find out whether our candidates for the Legislature favor these drug stcre bars before voting for them. The public is entitled to know who would favor legislation th tt is favora ble to the sale of liquor. The morals of our people should be carefully guarded against the dangers which the alleged Pro hibitionists would bring in their Trojan horse. -Abbevi lle Press and Banner. A Clever Trick. It certainly looks like it, but there is cally no trick about it. Anybody can try it wLo has lame back and weak kidneys, malaria or nervous troubles. We mean he can cure himself right away by taking Elec tric Bitters. This medicine tones up the whole system, acts as a stimulant to the liver and kidneys, is a blood purifier and nerve tonic. It cures constipation. head ache, fainting spells, sleeplessness and melancholy. It is purely vegetable, a mild laxative, and restores the system to its nat ural vigor. Try Electric Bitters and be convinced that they are a miracle worker. Every bottle guaranteed. Only 50c a bottle at U. B. Loryea's drug store. 3 Featherstone's Fallacy. Sometimes the Prohibitionists, like the engineer, is hoisted by his own petard. The Southein Presbyterian in preaching prohibition found it necessary to specify some practical illustrations of its benefits. Rock Hill was cited as one of the towns where prohibition had done much good. Here is how the Rock Hill Herald exposes the hollow mockery of prohibition as preached by Featherstone and expounded in the platform of his faction: "We are much obliged for the compli. ment the writer pays our little city, but he evidently did not know much about the :onditions here during the time that Rock Hill was a 'prohibition t'own. Whiskey was not sold in open bar-rooms, but drug stores icnurished, dishing out liquors by day and night, for medicinal use.' Prohi bition' does exist here now as never before, because we have no dispensary and no so called 'prohibition.' permitting of the sale f liquor in drug stores for 'medicinal, me chanical and scientific purposes.' So far as the people of this little city could, they tried to restrict the sale of whiskey to nec essary purposes when sold in drug stores, bt they were powerless to do so, and there seemed to be no help for it "Rock Hill is the only town of its size in the State in which there is no dispensary and no serious effort has been made to have one opened here, but we are sure our people would prefer the establishment of a dispensary in their midst to a return to 'prohibition' with the sale of whiskey in drug stores. We tried it for ten years and during that time there was as much whis key sold in Rock Hill, on which men be came inebriated, as if we had have had Ii ensed bar-rooms. 'Prohibition' will not prohibit if men are permitted to sell whis key for any purpose in drug stores or in oter places."-Exchango. Aa Old Idea. Every day strengthens the belief of' emi nent physicians that impure blood is the cause of the majority of our diseases. Twenty-five years ago this theory was used as a basis for the formula of Browns' Iron Bitters. The many remarkable cures effected by this famous old household remedy are sufficient to prove that the theory is correct. Browns' Iron Bitters is sold by all dealers. Fellowship. Editor THE TIMEs: There appeared an article in the TIMES dated May 30. 1898 giving ar account of our work, as a Sunday school at old Fellowship church, which was not only very gratifing tc those engaged in this noble work,but brought back happy recolections 01 years past. When such men as Bros. Umphries, Cuttino and other such servants of God worship there. Our school is in a thriving condition, we now have enrolled 146~. There are a good many who would have joined on last Sunday eve had the weather permitted their attendance. I do not know of a better field foi work. We have had two of our be loved and consecrated servants o: God to preach for us-Brothers Con. nors and McDowell. They were very earnest in warning the people of the danger of sin',and exhorting them tc accept the Saviour as their only means of salvation and a higher life. We will welcome them back when ever they come to us. Oh, that God will impress the im portance of this work on the hearti of His people. May His servant: hear as did Paul the Macedoniar cry. Brothers, "come over and hell us;" we need your sympathy and co operation. Give us your encourage ment and prayers; help us with th< work, it is all to the glory of God and may He rule over and direct 1 all to the avne ntof His king domn on this earth.
