'The fire is believed to be the work of an The negro regiment sent out by the State of Virginia are under arrest, and has been put at hard labor, pendmng a court martial. The negroes thought that Uncle Sam's uni form licensed them to lawlessness. May a household is saddened by death because of the failure to keep on hand a safe and absolutely certain cure for croup such as One Minute Cough Cure. See that vour little ones are protected against emer gency. 1. B. Loryea. Married last Sunday at the bride's home, near Indiantown church, in Williamsburg county, by Rev. James McDowell, Mr. D. M1eQueen Ervin and Miss Sue Barr. The groom once lived in Manning; he is one of Yr. J. W. Ervin's sons. A cough is not like a fever. It does not have to run a certain course. Cure it quickly and effectually with One Minute Cough Cure, the best remedy for all ages and for the most severe cases. We recora mend it because it's good. R. B. Loryea. Every now and then, some one comes in to request us through these columns, to let the County Supervisor know that a certain road is in bud condition. We think it would be much better if the parties would see that official in person. It would have a tendency to do more good. The sooner a cough or cold is cured with out harm to the sufferer the better. Lin gering colds are dangerous. A hacking cough is distressing. One Minute Cough Cure quickly cures it. Why suffer when such a cough cure is within reach? It is pleasant to the taste. R. B. Loryea. Died suddenly 17th inst., in Williams burg county, 1r. T. M. McCutcheon, aged about 71 years. The deceased was a prom. inent citizen and well known to many in this county. He was buried at Indiantown church, of which he was an elder, and Rev.

For sale by Dr. W. M. Brockinton, Manning, S. C. A bear from Junky Yard bay was out among the hogs last Sunday night near oreston and had captured one almost too large for him to get off with.

A party was gotten up to hunt the bear, but they returned home earless.. Constipation prevents the body from rid ding itself of waste matter. De Witt's Lit tle Early Risers will remove the trouble and cure sick headache, biliousness, inac tive liver and clear the complexion. SmaLl, sugar coated, don't gripe or cause nausea. IL B. Loryea. We have endeavored to interest people from the several sections of the county to orrespond for TnE TnEs and so far have failed. It is important for a county paper to have correspondents all over the county, and we would gladly furnish those who will write news items with the paper free, but we do not mean to give the paper free to a yerson who writes a little squib once in every six months; we want regular news ontributors. The County Board of Commissioners has invited the members of the General As sembly to meet them here on the tirst Mon day in December and it would be a good idea if the newly elected Superintendent of Education and his predecessor would lso attend this meeting that they may give the Representatives such information in elation to the schools as-would put them n a position to act in concert and intellh ently on the matter of school legislation. There are certain dens in this town that will breed trouble if the authorities do not keep a close eye on them. Already boys f respectable families have been enticed into them, and taught the damming evils uch places inculcate. These hell holes ust be taken in hand by the legal author ities, or good citizens, for the protection of their sons, will be forced to take the law into their own hands, to break them up. This is no idle threat; the sleepless nights f parents has a limit to endurance. Our statement about one school district expending $320 for maps and charts, and n that district there had been no free school in several years was intended to ean district No. 10, Mt. Zion township; the statement was based upon what we hought was reliable information, but since reading trustee Plowden's letter we are con vinced that our informant was mistaken as to there being no schools in that district. While on this subject we will state that the chairman of one school district nags given the County Treasurer notice not to pay the claim for h is district as it was obtained by false representations. The great fistic-encounter between Cor bett and Sharkey came off last night in New York and in the ninth round interfer ene stopped the fight, and the Referee de' :ared charkey the winner, and at the same time declared all bets off. "Referee Kelly, gave as a reason for stopping~ the bout, and his decision in favor ot Sharkey, because ucVey, one of Corbetts seconds, jumped into the ring, and that be believes McVey was paid to do so by persons who had bet on harkey. That the tight was a fraud and a fake and the result of a fraudulent deal. The sports not into the game, are very much disappointed and now tbat the bets have been declared off, it will go hard with the toughs who have been expecting to handle lots of gold from this fight. The Best Plaster. A piece of flannel dampened with Cham berlain's Pain Balm and bound on to the ifected parts is superior to any plaster. iWhen troubled with a pain in the chest or side, or a lame back, give it a trial, You are certain to be more than pleased with the prompt relief which it affords. Pain Balm is also a certain cure for rheumatism. Lor sale by R. B. Loryea. druggist. Religious Notice. The communion meeting in Man ning Presbyterian church will be on the first Sabbath in December. The Rev. James E. Dunlop is expected to preach on Wednesday night and hursday at 11 o'clock a. m. before, and Rev. W. T. Matthews during the remainder ot the meeting. All are invited to attend. JAMES MCDOWELL, Pastor. CASTOR IA For Tnfants and Children. The Kind You Have Alwayp Bought Bears the Signature of , ,9~& 4~4 To the Teachers of Clarendon County: Believing that we can be benefited by meeting together from time to time to dis cuss matters pertaining to the teaching and management of public schools, and having been re-inested by some of the teachers of our county to call a meeting of the teachers for the purpose ot re-organizing the Teach ers Assocition, I propose that we all meet at Manning. in the bumlding where the the meetings were held last year, on the first Saturday in December in order to re organize the Association, to elect officers to arrane programs for future meetings, and o owhatever else has to be done. G. T. PUGH. Pine Grove, Nov. 19, 1898. A Wonderful Discovery. The last quarter of a century records many wonderful discoveries in medicine, but none that have accomplished more for humanity than that sterling old household remedy, Browns' Iron Bitters. It seems to ontain the very elements of good health, and neither man, woman or child can take it without deriving the eatest benefit. One Trustee Answers. Editor THE TImES: I have been waiting and hoping fur sev eral weeks past that the State Superintend ent of Education, County Superintendent or else some chairman of the various boards of trustees would endeavor to give you the information you have so earnestly sought, namely, the so-called "misappropriation of the free school funds of the county" in the purchase of mai,. charts, etc., but as none of the afore mt-itioned individuals seem inclined to give the information and as you have in this week's issue of Tnz Tim'Es made a charge that can be intended for no other than the school district I rep resent, I believe it my duty to reply. Last week you stated that in Mt. Zion township $320 had been expended in the purchase of triree articles, and this week vou stat" that "our schoo! district hal pur chased $320 worth of maps and charts and have not had a free school running for tive years." This last reference must, of course, nave boen to Mt. Zion My part in the purchase of the maps, etc., for this district was exactly in the conscientions discharge of my duty as I then saw it. I admit that now I think I (we) was imposed on in pay ing two or three times as much as the arti cies were worth, but when the purchase was recommended by the County Superin tendent of Education and asked for by some of the patrons of the school I espe cially represent, what was left for me to do? I did not consult all the patrons, but believe had I lone so a majority would have desired the purchase. In saying our school district has not had a free school running in five years is cer tainly a very great mistake. Our five schools have almost without exception been running every year as long as most others in the county and longer than a great many. To discharge the duties of a school trustee aright require time, prudence and care, in return for which he receives nei ther remuneiation and often no thanks, and in some instances the ill-will of some who would otherwise be well wishers and friends. I believe yet the people and patrons of the schools in our district will be satisfied with our action in this matter, and we do not fear the -crutiny of the "grand jury in February" or any one else in the dis charge of my (our) duties.
