There has been over $600 paid into the
county treasury this year for seed cotton
licenses, and still there are comiplaints
abut parties violating the law. The Sn
ervisor has had the duty imposed upon
iii by the grand jury to indict the violat
ors, and unless those engaged in the illicit
traffic come forward soon, there will be a
rich harvest of fines added to the licenses
already in the treasury.

There was a report last week in genera
circulation, to the effect that the notorious
Gus Deas Lad escaped fro:a t he peniten
tiarv authoritieo. and was roaming at large.
We went to Columbia and inquired of the
authorities as to the truth ot this report.
Colonel Neal with his usual courtesy. look
ed up the record and found that Deas is
safe and sound at the Clemson College farm
and that there is no truth in the repoit of
his escape.
When a bad character is at large other
devils do their devilment in Lis name, so
if their is any stealing,. burning, or other
crimnes in this county it need not be blamed
on Gus Deas.

There are strong evidences ot The exis
tance of illicit whiskey selling in this town.
The fall season is on ns, and the principal
income of the town comes from the disp n
sary profits,the council should give the p0
lice strict instructions to pull the tigers fron
their lairs. Every drop of blind tig-r
whiskey sold either from restaurants, frmit
stands, stores, or elsewhere is that much
money taken from the town trensury and
it should be stopped. If the council find
themselves unable to have the illicit selling
stopped with their present force, let theni
employ a detective, or apply to the gover
nor for one. If tney will do this we believe
they will collect enough fines to bear the
expense and they will ascertain whether or
not there has been any "winking the other
eye," and finally rid the town of the pest.

There is a strong probabihty of the Wil
son and Summerton railroad being extend
ed to Camden. Capt. Wilson, the owner
of the road, has already advertised his in
tention to apply to the General Assembly
for a charter. The Sumter Item, in speak
ing of this application, says: "i'his may be
a bluff," Those who know Capt. Thomas
Wilson know he is not of the bluffing kind
and whenever he determines on a course,it
is business; one of his strongest character
istics is determination, and he never at
tempts to do anything without first study
ing its every detail. Now that Captain
Wilson has signified his intention to ex
tend the Wilson and Summerton road, be
fore another year rolls round the whistle of
his engines will be heard in the city of
Camden. The people of Sumter shoul.i, if
they are alive to their interests, lend every
enouragen.ent to the successful accomplis
ment of this pioject.
When Tou call for DeWitt's Witch Hazel
Salve, the great pile care, don't accept any
thing else. Don't be talked into accepting
a substitute for piles, for sores, for burns.

Our readers wvill remeriber when Mr. S.
R. Tobias, a respectable citizen of this
county, left here to go to Colorado to join
his daughter, who went off with a Mormon
elder to be married in the temple of the
Mormon faith. The old gentleman has re
cently written to a friend, and his letter
should be a warning to others who have
been deluded by the oi lv-tongue elders
that have been visiting these parts. He is
anxious to get back to his homue an d kin
ded and he save. "WVe have been badIly de
ceived, for we diid not find the Iorumons to
be the people we expected to rind; they
lack much of living up to what they teach,
and it did not take very long to catch on to
Ithe wvar some of thenm lved." 3Mr. Tobias
'is anxious to get back and he woutd appre
ciate any aid he might receive that will
help him come home. The whole letter is
teeming with discontent, not only with the
deception practiced upon him, but the
country is also a disappointment. When
Xr. TVobias does return the people of this
county will not open their dors to Mlor
mon elders as freely as they dlid once.

Death of 1r. B. DuPree Hodge.
(Ocala, Fla., Star, Oct. 6.)
The news that Sheriff B. DuPre
Hodge had died at 12 o'clock yester
day caine as a shock but not as a sur
prise, as it was known for several
days that he was very low and the
worst might be expected. though it
was hoped that he might be left to
his motherless children, but in his
infinite wisdom God saw fit to take
him to dwell with his beloved wife,
who preceded him only four days to
the spirit land. Such an unparal
leled instance of sadness was never
known in this State, unless during
some prevailing epidemic, where
both the husband and wife would be
stricken down almost at the same
time and pass away so near together.
breaking up and destroying forever
such a happy and pleasant home.
The funeral services took place
from the Baptist church at 11 o'clock,
conducted by Dr. J. G. Law of the
Presbyterian church, assisted by
Rev. W. E. Bogart, the Baptist pas
tor. The services were conducted
and the burial took place under the
auspices of the Knights of Pythias,
Knights of Honor and the Fraternal
Union jointly, he having been a
member of each. There were over a
hundred members of the lodges pres
ent, and the church was crowded to
its fullest capacity by friends of the
deceased. The floral tributes were
many and beautiful. At the ceme
tery surrounded by his sorrowing
brethren and friends, the body was
laid to rest by the side of the loved
one, whose grave the flowers had
Ihardl had time to wilt.
Ben DuPre Hodge was born near
Manning, S. C., Jainuary 29, 1852. He
moved to Hillsboro county, Florida,
in 1882 and embarked in the orange
industry, but the following year he
came to Marion county, located in
the settlement known as Elmwood,
where he was successful as a trucker,
general farmer and orange grower.
It wvas here he met Mrs. Martha J.
Libaugh. Their acquaintance rip
ened into love which led to marriage.
Their union was blessed with three
children, two of whom survive thelr
parents. Several years later Mr.
Hodge moved to Ocala and became
proprietor of what was known as the
old Central Hotel, now the St. Denis,
on North Magnolia street, and, as in
everything Mr. Hodge attempted, he
became a very popular and success
ful landlord. During the years lhe
ran the hotel he never lost interest
in his farm, in fact maintained a
steady interest in the tilling of the
soil to the day of his death.
In the fall of 1891 Mr. Hodge be
came a candidate for sheriff, his op
ponents being P. H. Nugent and A.
R. Griffin, and so close was the vote
that a second primary was held, in
which hie led Mr. Nugent by a small
majority.
So popular grew Mr. Hodge as a
citizen and faithful and accommodat
in official that in his last race for
shriff, although he had several op
ponents, he beat them all by a big
majority.
As officer and citizeu, Mr. Hodge
held the confidence and respect of
the entire community, as well as
among his extensive acquaintance
through the State. He had few ene
mies and almost every man was his
friend. He was the soul of honor in
all business transactions, and his
word was taken as readily as would
have been his bond. He fearlessly
discharged his official duties in a
thoughtful and businesslike manner,
and many deeds of crime have been
ferreted out and the guilty brought
Ito justice by his vigilance.
in miatters pertaining to the ad
vancement and upbuilding of his
town and county, in deeds of charity
and all good works, none were more
zealous than lie, and no one in want
or distress ever called on him in vaiin.
Through the long days of illness
and suffering lie manifested a Christ
ian fortitude and calmness~and when
told that he must die, said he was
ready to go.
The entire community mourns
with the orphan children, who have,
in less than a week, been deprived of
both father and mother.

New Orleans. That battery you will remember was
composed of cotton bales and was intended to break
the force of the British bullets.

vicinity from the enormous profits they have been
paying on Dry Goods, Shoes, Hats, Clothing Milli
