Died near Sardinia last Sunday night
Miss Bessie Player, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. 3. M. Player. The deceased
was about sixteen years of age and had
-for a long time been an invalid. The
funeral took place at Midway church
Monday evening.
We are happy to say, now that our
our scl-ool is nearing its close we have
heard nocomnplaintsaganstOurteachers
K. and we hope i~he trustees will re-elect
every one of the present faculty. Pro
* fessor Bovd has accomplished a hercu
]ean task-~served a whole session with
out a rumpus being kicked up.
Daniel Carter, colored, died in this
todrn last Monday of lockjaw, caused
from a nail getting stuck into his foot.
The deceased suffered intensely for
five days and death was a relief. Carter
enjoyed the confidence of his white ac
* quaintances, was well-behaved and very
reliable. Colored citizens like him al
ways have many white friends.
* We take pleasure in calling attention
to the candidates' cards of Mr. C. R.
Felder for Clerk of the Court. Mr.
Felder has a host of friends throughout
the county,was Clarendon's'first Super
visor and has otherwise served the
county. Mr. F. ~Earle Bradhanr for
* Superintendent of Education. This is
,a high honor graduate of Wofford col
lege, and since, he has been engaged inm
practical teaching.
Died at her home near Manning last
Friday night, Mrs. Mattie Ridgil,aged
about 40 years. The deceased was not
ed for her untiring energy and good
ness of~ heart, and she will be sadly
missed in the neighborhood. She left
surviving, her husband, Mr. B. Frank
* Ridgill, and six children. The funeral
services were ennducted by Rev. G' T.
Gresham3 at Fellowship church, and
were attended by a large number of
relatives and friends.
The 'efort being made for the local
cemetery is a laudable one and should
receive the active eneouragement of
every person. An association should1
be formed which should purchase some
of the adjoining property and extend'
the present limits of the grounds. The
own~ers of adjoining property, we have
no doubt, will sell the association at a
more reasonable figure than they would
to individuals, and now while there is
vet a surviving trustee of the old asso
ciation mrch complication can be avoid
ed by getting together now.
Two of Clarendon's citizens made a
close call from a watery grave last
Thursday afternoon, while sailing in a
boat off Sullivan's Island. Billy Dyson
-andC.J.Gibson while taking in the sights
at the reunion joined a party from Fort
Sumter to take a sail, Dyson proved a
Jonah, his hat blew off, and in attempt
ing to recover it the boat capsized and
two of the party were drowned, the
others were rescued by soldiers and the
'life saving crew from the Island. Dy
son and Gibson were taken to the hospi
tal and the doctors gave them the nec
essary medical aid to return home the
next day.
News has reached us that the people
in the Salem section are chafing under
being left out of representation in the
Legislature, and they are going to
have a meeting of their respective clubs
to ascertain Salem's choice for a Rep
resentative, and endeavor to present a
man for the rest of' the county to vote
*for. It is a fact. Salem is by location.
as well as taxable property, entitled to
a share of the public offices: it cer~
tainly ought to have representation on
the legislative ticket. Every man who
runs for office cpaters strongly for the
Salem vote. Now the Salemites are
tired of vote furnishing for others to
hav all of the offce-getting.
The Mutual Dry Goods Company had
quite a successful "white goods open
ing" last Wednesday evening and
Thursday. The attendance was fine
and the display beautiful. These young
men never do things half way and all of
their undertakings are with a view to
make a lasting impression.
We are told that Captain Wilson has
about arranged a schedule for the Wil
son and Summerton railroad which will
enable those living along the route to
reach Manning in the morning by con
necting with the train from Charleston,
and return to their homes in the after
noon by connecting with the train from
Columbia. We hope this is true, as it
will be almost as much help to our town
as if the Wilson train came direct into
Manning. With such a schedule peeple
from St. Paul, Summerton, Davis and
Jordan could shop a whole day here
and get back to their homes in time for
supper, which, will be a great induce
ment to turn the tide of trade from
Sumter to Manning.
Mrs. S. A. Geddings of Paxville left
Manning Tuesday of last week to visit
her daughter at Harpers, on the
Georgetown and Western railroad. On
reaching the water tank near that sta
tion the porter rushed in calling out
"Harpers" and grabbed up her valise.
rs. Geddings naturally followed the
porter, and when in the act of stepping
from the car the train moved otr and
jerked her violently to her knees se
rerely injuring her. A Doctor Lee and
some others came to her assistance at
:he station, and her brother, Mr. A. P.
Hill, wishes us to express his thanks to
:hem for their kindness. Here is a case
)f gross careless on the part of the rail
oad and it will be surprising to us if
they do not have to pay damages.
A glance over our candidates' column
will convince the most doubting that the
Chase will be more earnest for the dol
lar than for a patriotic desire to improve
the country's condition.- Let the good
work go on until the day for filing
pledges; the more the merrier, and the
[ewer votes it will take to get into the
second race. Aspirants for offize be
not dismayed by numbers. for the
greater the number the -sweeter the
victory, and we who delight in count
ing your shekels will continue gleeful
ly in counting more. Hurry up fellow
citizens, gentlemen and patriots, all ye
that are office-hungry come unto us and
we will give you an opportunity to
;peak with our friends. Come along
people while it lasts, haud us your Wil
liam and get under the starting string,
and when the flag drops our word for it
a large majority will hear the cheers of
the victors.
A very sad accident occurred to Dr.
T. J. Davis of Summerton last Saturday
afternoon. The doctor was on his way
to see a patient near Davis Station, and
having an appointment for a consulta
tion with other physicians, he was in a
hurry. Mr. Allen Shorter who was in
wagon, noticing the doctor's appar
ent hurry turned out to give him the
road. Doctor Davis' buggy wheel
struck Shorter's wagon and both were
turned over into the ditches on either
side of the road. The doctor's spirited
horse took fright, dashed ogf,threw him
gut headlong, and by some means the
lines became wrapt around his body.
He was dragged several hundred yards
and when picked up he was gasping as 1
in extremis. His head, face and body
are badly bruised and cut, some of the
wounds are quite serious, but Doctors
Wilson of Jordan, Mood and Stukes of
Summerton and Geiger of Manning who
responded immediately upon getting
the messages, and gave the sufferer]
their best attention, say that if there
ae no intei-nal injuries, the wounds
while serious and painful are not fatal.
Doctor Davis is now at the residence of
bis brother, Joseph, where every atten
zion is given him, and with the good
aursing he is receiving he will be at his
practice again, with a new horse we
ope, in a few weeks.

Letter to W. R. White.
Dear Sir: Let's have a little. private
talk by ourselves on business; nobody
else, lease, read.
You want,to know how to do a cheap
ob of painting, and have it look good.
Here It is: The cheapest thing there is
in the way of a good looking job-say
nothing about its being good-is Devoe;
the regulai- thing in Devoe.
The reason is: Devoe goes further'
than anything else. Lead-and-oii is
good looking; don't go so far and costs
more. The other paints are more or
less short in one way or another: don't
go so far and costs more than Devoe.
Devoe costs least of all: you don't
mind its lasting longer do you? We can't
help it; a paint that goes further lasts
longer; we can't help it.
Yours truly,
9 F. W. DEV'OE & Co.,

our paint.
There are sorrows enough in life to
make us thank God heartily for the
music of the songs that come after.
Friendship may only be a name, but
it is fortunate for some of us it is fre
quently written on the back of a 30-day
Shylock was the man who
wanted a pound of human
flesh. There a re m a ny
Shylocks now, the convales
cent, the consumptive, the
sickly child, the pale young
woman, all want human flesh
and they can get it-take
Scott's Emulsion.
Scott's Emulsion is flesh
and blood, bone and muscle.
It feeds the nerves, strengthens
the digestive organs and they
feed the whole body.
For nearly thirty years
Scott's Emulsion has been the
great giver of human flesh,
We will send you a couple of
ounces free.

Closing of Summerton Graded Scbool.
The past three days Summertrn has
been in a state of gaity and expectation.
The occasion was the closing of its
graded school. The people of that
:ommunity feel proud of their educa
tional institution, and their children, I
nd well they have a right to be. We
regret exceedingly that lack of space
md help forbids making any extended
>bservations. Rev. J. G. Beckwith de
ivered the annual sermon Sunday to a
arge and appreciative audience. Mon
ay evening a very elaborate program
.as excellently carried out, and those
,vho were present speak especially well l<
)f a debate. Subject: Resolved, That 1

XI. L. Smith, Speaker of the House of
Representatives was to be the orator, n

Sumter's Chaingang Is Distinguished. eo
George Washington Murray, colored,_
rho enjoyed the distinction of having
een given a certificate of election to
Jongress over General E. W. Moise by
he first Reform Board of State Can
assers, was convicted last Thursday in 3
he Sumter Court of General Sessions
>f forgery and sentenced to pay a fine ~
>f $250 and to serve three years upon
he chaingang. Murray's attorney en- in
leavored to get a new trial wvhen the a
ury brought in a verdict of guilty, and
ailing in this, he has appealed to the
upreme Court.I
The testimony in the case showed je
hat Murray, like a great many other
reedy money-makers, in the desire to
leed those they have in their power, ~
resort to means unlawful and criminal,
ut in this case the graft was held up
Ld taken to the courts.
There are many white Murrays who, ]
id they get what they .deserve under ai
he law, would by serving terms on the S
~haingang also.
The conviction of Murry should be a
arning to a class of merchants and
noney-lenders who have and are con-d
inuing to get rich by unlawful devicesC
o take advantage4>f the poor and igno-L
,ant. We know it to be a fact that
~here tare men occup-ying conspicuous
~ositions in church and society, whose
awful and moral place is "doing time"
or the county or State in criminal ~1
~arb. The reason these men have not ti
een torced to face a jury is because i'
he class of people they rob are afraid -
o demand their rights. The poor white
nan dare not and the "nigger" thinks
e has no show. The result is that -I
hese mercenary fiends, feeling safe in rt
he fears of their victims, continue to
leed and rob them. But take care,
auman vultures, lest you oppress the
~vrong man, and when you do, like ri
iurray,whose ownership of eight thou- o
sand acres of land could not save him ..
Erom the chaingang, nor will your
wealth and white skin save you..
A Cure for Piles.
"I had a bad case of piles," says G.F.
Carter of Atlanta, Gr., "and consulted C
a physician who advised me to try a boxd
:f DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve. I pur- e
:hased a box and was entirely cured.
[t is splendid for piles, giving relief in
tantly, and I heartily recommend it tod
all sufferers" DeWitt's Witch Hazel i
Salve is unequalled for its healing qual- c
ities. Eczema and other skin diseases,
also sores, cuts burns and wounds of
every kind are quickly cured by it.

Dyspepsia a0
1s generally caused or aggravated by
constipation and improper diet. It is
easier to point out the cause than the 0
remedy. But the sufferer can get infor- a
mation at RHAME'S DRUG STORE,
which will at once open the .door of
hope. The remedy is simple, inexpen
sive, harmless and in nine cases out of
* ' ten effective from the first day. a
Some of the best citizens of Claren
don can testify to the above. Names
will be furnished when requested by any
one troubled with indigestion. e

Ofcourse these are only a few lines in dry goods. I -
e er i n that department, and if my prices are
not as low as the lowest elsewhere, then I do not ask your
patronage. I do not offer one article at a below cost price
oand make double the profit on something else.
SHOES! SHOIES!
This department is where my experience as a mer
chant manifests itself. I know a good shoe, and to retam
trade I must sell a good shoe. Come and look through
this line, and I believe I sell you shoes which wvill give =
you good service and save you money.
CLOT HING.
Iis all nonsense to assert that "we are the only
ones."I Inspect my stock and if I cannot give you a fit,
Ianothler market you will have to seek. Besides I have
accepted the sole agency for the celebrated made-to-order
line of D'Ancona & Co., fashionable tailors of Chicago,
and every suit I make is with a guarantee of no fit no
money. "Come and see the samples now on exhibition in
my store. A gentleman can have a suit made to order
and get a perfect fit for almost what he can get a hand
me-down for. Give me a trial order, I know I will please
y want your trade, and to get it I must meet compe
tition. This I will do, for I am in business to sell goods
and am doing business on the principle of live and let
live.
