the head with the handle of an ordi
nary carpet broom. The blow inflicted
ruptured the spinal cord causing hem
,orrhsme. Magistrate Richbourg held
the inquest, and wvalker will be tried
for murder. - . -
There is, in another column, a com
munication from Mr. B. H. Harvin
which we hope our readers will ponder
over seriously. Mr. Harvin has made a
study of the undeveloped portions of,
this and the Pee Dee sections, and he is
enthusiastic over the parospect of a rail.
road which will give this section an
other commercial outlet. He thinks~
the projected road, from Conway will
make an almost direct route to Man
ning by crossing the Northeastern rail
road either at Scranton or Kingstree,
then from Manning up left hand side of
Pocotaligo swamp to'Sumter, or direct
from Conway to Manning, then straight
on to Charleston. If there is any~
chance of inducing the projectors of
this new road to come here or to any
part of the county every citizen should
end a helping hand.
We have received a communication,
not for publication,) urging us to indi
ate through these columns who of the
,ublished list of candidates for the
Legislature would make. in our opin
on, good Representatives. This we
annot do, it would not be fair to the
andidates nor would it be fair to the
)eople, and it would only give those we
lid not mention grounds to charge us
vith attempting to dictate. We as
;ume every man offering himself for
he Legislature is known and the peo
>1e are in as good position to judge his
aerits or qualifications as we are. We
ill, however, say that as there are no
>pen issues, it would be well to ascer
ain from the candidates whether or
:ot, if elected, they favor making any
:hanges in the dispensary law. We do
:ot think a man should be elected to
,he Legislature if he favors any
hanges, unless he makes known to his
nstituents the changes he favors. In
number of counties the Bri:e bill, as
riginally introduced, is an issue. This
neasure, as we understand it, means to
>ermit towns where dispensaries are
stablished to vote them out, whereas
nder the law as enacted, dispensaries
annot be voted out by the towns, but
he vote must be submitted to the qual
fled voters of the conuty. If we send
o the Legislature a man who does not
ive a public expression on this matter
re may elect a man upon his personal
opularity who will work and vote di
-ectly against the wishes of his constit
ents. It is therefore well to have an
xpression from the candidates on this
mportant question. A man who is a
'rohibitionist from principle, or who
as heretofore claimed such must when
ie goes to the Legislature. to be con
stent, work to break up the dispen
ary root and branch, and if the voters
avor such a movement they should
rote for such an one, but if on the other
and, &hey believe we are getting the
iquor traffic under a satisfactory con
rol no such man should be elected, be
ause he would misrepresent the peo
)le who have honored him. There is
o compromise of the liquor question
rith a sincere Prohibitionist, and when
L man goes before the people who has
ieretofore posed as a Prohibitionist,
,nd now to be sent to the Legislature
>roposes compromising, or even pro
>oses to accept the question as a set
ed policy, we say he will not do. and
teither the Prohibitionists or the dis
ensaryites need have faith in him.
So far as we are concerned, we have
io favorites: when the primary comes
n we will make our selection of those
ho have announced themselves, but
o indicate to the public our choice, or
bose we do not favor, without a public
pression from the candidates them
elves is not in accord with our judg
nent.

A Rare Musical Treat.
Sometime ago several of the public
;pirited citizens of Manning began
egotiations for the purpose of obtain
g a concert from the Royal Hungarian
hurt Orchestra which will shortly
isit the Unitnd States for the first
~ime.
This Orchestra is the one attached to
e Royal Court of Hungary and fur
iishes the music for it on all State oc
~asions. This Orchestra has played
efore most of the crowned heads of
urope, and it is one of the "crack"
nusical organizations of the world.
E'hey will spend but a short time in
his country, as they are simply taking
vacation and giving a few concerts in
ifferent portions of the United States
o ay their expenses.
'The price which they have agreed to
ome is a very large one and the
,ackers of the enterprise are simply
loping that the attendance will be
arge enough to make their loss a small
e. We have been assured that the
~ngagement of this attraction, or one
f its high class is something unheard
f in a town of this size. This aggre
ration of musical artists are expected
ere September 21st, and every lover
)f music should feel fortunate to secure
,ticket.

he Picnic at Beulah Attended by Thousands.
Timmonsville, S. C., July 24.-Yes
erday quite a large crowd attended the
nnual Confederate Veterans' picnic
held at Beulah, which is just fifteen
niles from the nearest railroad. Beu
Lah is.z thriving little settlement and
there are atbouit five nice frame stores.
ll seem to be doig quite an interest
ing business. One -thing that espe
ialy attracted attention was that
nearly all the girls and boys arc at
tendig some one or other of the State
chools. The welcome which each and.
every one was extended could hardly
bave been excelled, for it seemed to be
quite a pleasure for those good people
to entertain.
The grounds where the crowd was
ntertained were just across a small
stream and they have been all cleaned
off, a new artesian well sunk and plen
ty of benches placed around. At 12
'clock the old soldiers were lined up
nd marched to a stand by Captain
Truluck and an address of welcome was
delivered by Mr. Kennedy. Mr. D. H.
Traler spoke next, then Mr. WV. H.
Wells, after which Mr. Ellis Smith, of
nhbourg, took the stand and gave
an interesting talk on national as well
as State issues.
After the speeches dinner was an
nounced and the multitudes were well
fed. There were over 2,000 people at
the picnic, some estimates being as
high as 2.500 to 3,000. Tables could
not begin~ to hold out, so numbers
spread their table cloths out on the
ground. A grander bill of fare could
not have been asked for. All sorts and
inds of food was served. Never be
fore in the history of this country has
there ever been such a large gathering.
There were heavy rains the day and
night before and in the morning _there
were heavy clouds which floated in the
heavens all day. There was no disor
der and nothing marred the most pleas
ant day of many years. It is said that
there were people from seven counties
present. A game of ball between two
nearby teams helped to amuse the vis
itors in the afternoon. The crowd did

the skies opened up and it. seemed as if ,

and took everything in the best of hu

A Drunken 31an's Wit. V
A drunken man who sought to buy a V(
ticket at a theater box office was de- bc
nied the privilege. "What's matter?" fo
demanded the applicant. "What's mat

want to know," responded the keeper
of the box office, "you're drunk." The

IBIRTHDAY WEEK SALE]
BEGINNING
Monday, August Ist,
FOR ONE WEK ONLY.
We are just one year old on August 1st. That is, just 365
days ago:we threw open our doors as the MUTUAL DRY GOODS
2 COMPANY to the fair-minded trading public of Manning and
Clarendon county. Ordinarily that is only an infant's age, but
this big Baby of ours has outgrown itself so much during those
busy twelve months that it would hardly be called a "young
ster" now and especially not by some of our neighboring com
petitors.
That the summer season-is fast passing and the time for-sell-'
ing summer goods will soon be over is.a fact that everybody
knows, so we will offer for ONE WEEK prices that will very fit'
3 tingly commemorate this our first birthday.
We are thankful for the success our young business has
achieved in this the first year of its business existence, for our
business has been larger, reaching far beyond anything we had
dared anticipate, and to show our candid appreciation we give
this
Special Birthday Sale
For One Week.
We will arrange prices to interest every one and specially
the ladies of the land, considering the quality of goods that-the, ,
Mutual handles.
We will arrange special features-and prices for each day sid
'will also make these known by handbills later..7
We will expect to see all our friends during this Special Sale,
and we promise to make it profitable and pleasant for you.
Come, whether you have aiything to buy or not, and offet
good wishes, and your presence will assure that much.
- Very truly,
