Died Tuesday of last week near Pine Grove, Mrs. Willie Beard, aged about 25 years. Mrs. James Bell of Columbia is visit ing her daughter Mrs. J. N. Brown at Paxville. Judge Townsend will preside at the coming term of court which convenes November 17th. Krasnoff has taken the agency for the celebrated Douglas shoe and he carries a biz line of them. Mrs. Thomas Nimmer sent us a dish of Syrian figs. which came from her native land, and they were delightful. Mr. W. P. Hawkins has returned from St. Louis where he has been to purchase stock, and he has a fine lot sure. Mrs. W. S. Harvin who has been so journing at the north returned home last Saturday very much improved in health. Mr. John Cousar of Sardinia who has been very ill for the past six weeks is now, his friends will 'be glad to learn, getting better. There will be a festival at Home Branch school house Friday evening 31st inst., for the benefit of the school. The public is asked to attend. H on. Joseph F. Rhame spent last -week at the Florence court, where he was engaged in the defense of Messrs Smith &Dnnis on trial for arson. The entertainment at the Paxville academy last Friday was a great suc cess, and turned into the coffers of the school $84, which will be used for equipment. Mr. Elliot Mc~addin, aged labout eighty years, and a land mark in the .Sardinia section of the county is quite sick and his family are very appre hensive of his condition. There is a sly rumor hereabonts to the effect that a man who has been hobbling about on the carpet for a num ber of .years will take unto himself a wife before this year ends. Governor McSweeney has appointed Mr. J. Calhoun Baker, o.f New Zion a member of the board of county commis sioners to fill the unexpired term made vacant by the death of .Mr. W. J. Turbeville. tMr. J. Calhoun Baker has been rec ommended to the Governor for appoint ment to fill out the unexpired .term on the board of county commissioners, made vacant by the death of W. J. Turbeville. A bale of cotton was stolen from the lot of Mr. J. W. McLeod belonging to Mr. John W. RidigilT, and it was found in the lot of Mr. B. A. Johnson by the *owner. Mr. Johnson bought the cotton from a negro. Mr. Ridgill got .his cotton back. Mr. S. R. Venning has on a counter in his Jewelry store a show case which he built himnself and it is a splendid piece of mechanism. Venning is car rying an excellent stock of goods suit able for wedding presents, and he is *selling them cheap. We are tired of having people com :plaining to us about certain roads be ing in bad condition. If they cannot get their complaints lodged in the commissioners office, than salt them away for the future. We cannot help them to get better roads. The cash sales with our merchants were never better, and it is a Ssplendid sign that the people are mak ing good use of the results of the fine crops. A great many farmers are putting their money in the bank to pay cash for their next year's supplies. Whenevever we have something in the Institute hall again it will be well for the authorities to have some officer present to arrest a set of boys, wvho annoy the audience with their bad be havior. If one arrest is made and a v' good stiff fine is imposed, there will never again be cause for complaint. The case of Smith and Dennis charg ed with arson-the burning of a large portion of the business part of Tim monsville was tried in the Florence court last week and resulted in a ver dict of not guilty. This was the se cond trial for the case, the first, the jury stood 11 for acquittal and one for guilty. Some of the managers of the prima ry election do not~ seem anxious to get their money, and the chairman cannot _pay us for our work until he finishes paying the magagers. we do wish those managers who haven't called for their pay would do so. We will ascertain whso have not been paid and publish the list so they will be reminded that there is money coming to them. The Boston Stars a company under the direction of the Alkahest will be in Manning Nov. 5th, and a delightful en tertainment is assured. We hope the entire town will turn out, and that many of our friends from the county will come also. This company comes to us highly recommended, and from 6, the various newspaper criticisms we judge they are a very superior attrac We have not cut on all of the deli quent subscribers, because there are some who we believe are perfectly good, and will pay us as soon as they come to town. Those we did cut otl were a class that have been here since we gave notice, and they did notshow a disposition to pay this honest debt. On the 15th. day of November we will strike from our lists those who are im arrears over a year, and especially those whom we believe will not pay. Tobocco continues coming to the People's warehouse, and the growers are so well pleased that they say the tobacco crop in this county will be doubled next year. There are as fine tobacco lands in the Fork section, and also in the Deep Creek section. as there are on Puddin swamp, and they should be utilized for this money mak ing crop. Tobacco is the thing for light lands. A crop that will turn out an average of x150 per acre beats cot ton all hollow, and this is what tobacco is doing. The farmer who plants to bacco does not have to plant but a few acres to make more money than he ill make on a two horse cotton farm. The Avant Mercantile Company at Summerton find their business so large that they are forced to make an ad dition to their store. They will put on 150 feet more space, to enable them to handle the increasing trade. This concern advertises in THE TIMES and one of the company told us that they are selling goods to people in all sec tions of the county, and some who must pass through the county seat to et to them. We do not doubt it, be cause when a concern advertises oats at 10 cents a bushel less than they can be bought elsewhere, it is bound to make people hitch up teams and come back loaded up. Avant's oats are talk ed about all over the county. How did the people know it? Why by read ing their advertisement in THE TIMES. While in 31anning last Sunday Pres siding Elder Jas. W. Kilgo held the fourth quarterly conference of the Methodist church at this place. The officers and pastommade a good finan cial showing for this year, and all de mands on the church will be raised in full The entire old board of stewards consisting of J. W. McLeod, Joseph iprott, W. C. Chandler, J. H. Lesesne. W. G. King, J. H. Rigby and A. M. White, were elected for the next year. [t was with great regret that official 2otice.had to be taken that this is the Last year Rev. P. B. Wells, under the Laws of the church, can remain here as pastor and resolutions were adopted ex pressing the regrets of the church at is leaving and wishing him much suc cess in his new field of work the next rear. The annual conference meets at tewberry on the 3rd, of December. Beginning yesterday the Atlantic 0oast Line has put on a train to run between Creston and Lanes which will ae a great convenience to the travel ng public. The trains will run as ollows: Train No. 47 will leave Lanes at 6.30 D. m. Tuesdays, Thursdays and Satur lays, arriving at Creston at 9.30 p. m. Train No. 46 will leave Creston Tues lays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 8.25 %. m.. arriving at Lanes 11.15 a. m. This will enable passengers leaving Charleston 4.35 p. in. on days mention ed to make connection at Lanes for Manning, Sumter, Creston and Colum bia. Passengers taking train from Creston t 8.25 a. mn. and leaving Sumter at 9.50 . m. tri-weekly will make connection at Lanes with tre~in No 51, arriving at Carleston 1.10 p. m. The people of this community have been exceedingly fortunate the past week in havingr had with them that listinguished educator, and clear Leaded student, Professor H. N. Sny ler, President of Wofford College. On Eriday evening Professor Snyder de ivered an address in the Institute hall. It was an educational addresss puel nOnh Sudymorning he de [iee nter educational address in the Methodist church, and on Sunday evening he delivered another educa tional address. He gave us three ad dresses on the same subject and each one from a different view, and each one carrying with~ it a wholesome esson. 'The first was man's relation to the school; the second, the school's re Lation to the church and the third, "The man ot to-morrow." These ad dresses were an education to those who ad the good fortune to listen to them. Professor Snyder is not only a man of Letters, but he is a deep thinker-a student, a builder of men who. have a purpose to make a grander citizenship, a purer religion, and a brighter future. We regret that we were unable to se cure a synopsis of the addresses, and we hope 'this will not be Professor Snyder's last visit to Manning. A Typical South African Store. . R. Larson of Bay Villa, Sundays River, Cape Colony, conducts a store typical of South Africa, at which can be purchased anything from the pro verbial " needle to an anchor." This store is situated in a valley nine miles from the nearest railway sta tion and about twenty-five miles from the nearest town. Mr. Larson says: "I am favored with the custom of farmers within a radius of thirty miles, to many of whom I have s:1p plied Chamberlain's remedies. .91 testify to their value in a household where a doctor's advice is almost out of the question. Within one mile of my store the population is perhaps sixty. Of these, within the past twelve months, no less than fourteen have been absolutely cured by Cham berlain's Cough Remedy. This must surely be a record." For sale by The R. B. Loryea Drug Store, Isaac M. Loryea, Prop. LOOPING THE LOOP. Diavol's Famous Act a Feature of Forepough Sells Circus. Adam Forepaugh and Sells Brothers united shows are exploiting a feature this season which eclipses in point of sheer daring anything ever attempted in any arena. it is the famous Diavolc inn looping the loop" on a bicycle. an act which created the profoundest sen stion in New York city and Philadel pia and elicited more praise and was given more space in the metropolitar press than any single act ever presen ted to the public. Looping the loop is described as dan ger deriding and death defyin.g, which~ is as near correct as wordis can make it. From the extreme height of the canvas dome Diavolo makes a thrilling dscent down the narrow plane ona bicycle and the momentum thus gained carries him around the loop at a terrific: rate of speed. At the top of the loop both the rider and wheel are upside down and going at the rate of 40 mile.s an hour. It is a hair-raising act and one that all should see, as it givesa practical demonstration of the first sientific lesson of youth-the swinging in a circle of a bucket full of wvater without siplling. The date of the show is ctober 23rd, Sumter. S. C. Goes Like Hot Cakes. "The fastest selling article I have in my store," writes druggist C. T. Smith of Davis, Ky.. "is Dr. King's ew Discovery for coughs and colds. because it alwvays cures. In my sis years of sales it ~has never failed. I have known it to save sufferers from throat and lung diseases, who could get no help from doctors or any other rmedy." Mothers rely on it, best physicians prescribe it, and The R. B. Loryea Drug Store guarantees satisfaction or refund price. Trial Dr. Salley of Pinewood as a Promoter. Pinewood. S. C.. Oct. 17 1902. Col. D. W. Brailsford. Panola, S. C.. Mr Dear Col:-As a scheme for over coming disadvantages resulting fron our having no freight competition, and what is true of Western Clarendon ap plies t~ all sections to be benefited b3 proict to be mentioned. All of the towns in the county being dependen1 entirely upon the one system of rail road. The idea is this, and I submit it to you for consideration and if yof think, as I do. that the plan is practical Ithen discuss it with business men o your section. and lets see what agita tion may result in. The idea is to build a Trolley line from Manning via Silver, Panola, Fel der, Pinewood and thence Westward six miles and intersect with Southern railroad Levi's siding and will secure us both freight and passenger advan tages. This would increase proceeds from every bale of cotton sold in Clar endon county $1.25 per 500 lb bale, as we always get i cent below Sumter and Orangeburg both points having lower rates to Wilmington and the new con nection would place us in reach of Wil lington buyers. And as almost all cot ton mills are located on Southern Rail road the advantage of such connection is obvious. Of course there are many other ad vantages to be mentioned, but you can easily think them out. Manning would be greatly benefited and ought to sub scribe liberally, say one third of whole amount necessary, Southern railroad being benefited by such a feeder as this line would prdve to be, ought to sub scribe another third, and it seems as ,though the planters along the route and the small towns ought to be able to sub scribe the other third of required amount. Think of this and lets talk it over at some early date. Yours truly, P. M. SALLEY. A Good Scheme. Panola. S. C., Oct. 20 1902. MR. EDITOR:-I enclose you herewith a letter just received form Dr. P. M. Salley of Pinewood, which so impresses me as to the perfect feasibility and desirability of the comtemplated trolley route from Manning via Silver, Panola, Felder, Pinewood and intersecting the Southern road at Levi's six miles be yond Pinewood: that I hasten to sub mit it to you for consideration and pub lication to beget immediate public in terest and discussion. Trolley lines of twice that length through sparsely settled sections are paying handsome dividends, and this contemplated route passes directly through the garden spot of Clarendon and its densest population. But this is only a side-issue in compari son to the liberation of Manning from the domination of the Atlantic Coast Line road to give her an outlet over the Southern. And how like magic towns would spring up at points that are only now postoffices. And then the converting of the immense volume of West Clarendon trade from Sumter to Manning, which only drifted to Sumter by reason of railroad facilities: but a double passenger service twice a day only this new road would exceed any thing they ever enjoyed in that con nection. Surely the business acumen and the well known enterprise and push of the Manning merchants will enable them to realize and appreciate the tremen dous meaning and significance of this road to them and their town. I know at a glance you will take in its splendid results to Manning and will give it the full power and influence of the press and the men behind it. Very truly, D. W. BRAILSFORD.

In the olden times in Japan all the daimios (similar to the old English lord) had great sport with falcons, as they went out to-the field to catch other birds with falcons. The falcons were tamed well and used to catch large birds, mostly cranes. When people now go out hunting wvith falcons, the men in charge hold them upon their fin gers. As soon as one sees any bird he lets the falcon rush at the bird; as soon as the falcon reaches the bird he bites at the throat and throws the bird down to the ground. Meanwhile the holder runs to the place where they are and catches both of them. Falcons are not large birds; but, as they belong to the eagle family, they are strong and brave and never afraid to go at any bird to kill it, but the men in charge of falcons of cour'se take great care in feeding and taming them. Why He Laughed. Rylands, who had purchased a new horse warranted to be quiet to ride and in harness and a good trotter to boot, had invited a friend to accompany him for a trial drive. .They had not gone very far when the horse bolted, ran against a heap of stones lying in the road and pitched both occupants violently into the lane. When they recovered, the horse had disappeared, leaving the buggy shaft less and a heap of wreckage. Rylands began to roar. "What on earth are you laughing at?' dejectedly inquired the friend. "Why, the fellow who sold me that horse lent me the buggy!"-New York Times. Wellington as an Art Connoisseur. In his "Reminiscences" Frederick Goodall tells a story of Wellington as an art connoisseur. He paid Wilkie 600 guineas for hIs "Chelsea Pension ers" and laboriously counted out the amount in cash.
