A Bachelor at Old Maid's Convention. ~)Usines of ilmportance fored us away from home last week and to out sincere regret we iissed the "Old Maid's Convention." and on our return home our regrets were the more intel sified by the many enthusiastic expres sions of approval from those whose good fortune it was to be preselt. We knew the entertainment would be a success from every stand-point-it was bound to be. for in no town in South Carolina is there better material for an intellectual, humorous or social en tertainment. In the place of our own "write-up) we take what '-J. H. L" sent to the Columbia State. which is as follows: ianning. Oct. 20.--All lanning turned out Thuinday night to enjoy two hours of laughter and attend the tirst convention of old maids" ever held in town. Had the meeting been a bonatied old maid's convention it, could not have been more typical of women's way of attending to business. The en tertainment was given for benevolent purposes connected with the Presby terian church, and was taken part in by nearly all the young ladies in town, and sonie not so powerfully young. The costumes were most appropriate and caused much merriment, but the way the women would vote on all sides of every motion whenever they had a chance and talk out in the meeting was a comedv of errors. The supposed ob ject of the convention was solely to promote matrimonial interests, and some of the quotations on "man,." and the speeches were great. They took occasion to pay off old scores against all the young men in town, and some of the "hits" were to the point. All unmarried men who had ever been un successful in their matrimonial aspira tions, or who were unfortunate enough to be red headed, bald headed or wore false teeth, were favorite victims of well pointed jokes, and the audience was kept in roars of laughter. Every town should have an "old maid's con ve ion" to let the bachelors see how efling they are, and to let the wid owers in town learn how to go at a courtship. White Man Turned Yellow. Great consternation was felt by the friends of M. A. Hogarty of Lexington. Ky.. when they saw he was turning yellow. His skin slowly changed color, also his eyes. and he suffered terribly. His malady was Yellow Jaundice. He was treated by the best doctors. but without benefit. Then he was advised to try Electric Bitters. the wonderful Stomach and Liver rem edv. and he writes: "After taking two bottles I was wholly cured." A trial proves its match less merit for all Stomach. Liver and Kidnay troubles. Only 50c. Sold by The R. B. Loryea Drug Store. 6 New Zion Dots. Editor The Manning Times: Hurrah for THE MANNING TIMES' wide awakness. Jenkison painted the country red through the peoples favor ite newspaper. If THE TIES contin ues to improve, it will equal some of those large New York Journals. The people that could not make a tool of THE TIMES' editor, sought to crush him by all kinds of tricky methods, but instead of crushing, it seems to have aroused an activity which is the ad miration of every sensible man, woman or child, and it is commonly heard that THE TIMES is tne best county news paper in the State, and it's editorial columns are unexcelled by the great dailies, and I can say that appreciative people feel proud of being able to send out to the world such an intellectual mouth-piece as THE MANNING TIMES. Rev. Rushton of Williamsburg who has been assisting our Pastor, Rev. Whittaker in a protracted meeting has returned to his circuit to attend a :uarterly meeting. Mrs. M. A. Cooper of Scranton, is here on a visit to her parents. Mr. Tom Player, formerly of this section, now of Texas has been spend ng a few days with his daughters Mrs. J. H. Hardy and Miss Kizzie Player. Miss Lula Oxford of Timmonsville has accepted charge of the Gamble school near Mr. Nelson Gambles. This is another pleasant addition to our social colony. Mr. A. 1). Hudson of Timmolnsville, passed through our section a few da~s ago. I was glad that you woke up things about cotton in your town, it needed it. and from what I can learn, you have made Manning a very fair, market. A friend of mine told me Sunday that he sold two bales in Manning on Saturday, and his brother sold five bales at anoth er market, and the Manning cotton brought within two and one-half cents on the hundred of the other. If you can keep this up, there is nothing to prevent Manning from turning Claren don's cotton to her market. The far mers of this section would rather go to Manning. and will do so, if our Super visor will gret our roads and bridges in good condition. and we can get a mar ket price for our tobacco and cotton. They tell me little Watkins the Dan yille tobacco buyer quit Manning to hunt a market not "on the hog." and that Drummny and Pope are rubber necking looking, for wives, they are tired hunting tobacco. How much is due the county treas ury from the recent investigations? I see by the newspapers that the grand jury of Marion is after the ex-officials of that county to make them disgorge what does not belong to them. These tax executions seem t'o be tempting trouble.
