In the recent election no tickets were presented at the ballot boxes in this county in opposition to Congress man Legare, but in Charleston a few of such tickets were voted. C. M. Davis & Co's "cost sale" has certainly attracteil a great many bar gain seekers, and they are increasing since they are satisfied that they are getting what is promised them. Those who scratched the names of the regular nominees in the recent election did themselves no good, and the candidate scratched no harm. To say the least, it was a silly way to show We are told that at a roll-call of one of the largest colored congregations in the county -last Sunday over one hundred communicants were found to be missing, and it is thought they have left country on account of labor con tract and lien debts. Several complaints have recently been made to us about the existance of vicious characters being permitted to live in this town. It has been our un pleasant duty to direct the -attention of our town authorilies to this scanda lous condition several times, but it looks to us as if they will not act. Died at the home of her grandfather *Mr. D. I. Burgess, last Wednesday, Lula. Mayes a six year old daughter o the late Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Gamble. T he mother died October 21, the father followed one week later, 28th, and now the eldest child by the second marriage. Truly this has been a most wonderfully ad visitation to a family. There was a number Methodist min sters in town last Thursday, attending the Fourth Quarterly Conference. The reports from the charges were very satisfactory, showing the churches to be in good condition. Rev. A. N. Brunson's term of four years expires and he will be placed elsewhere. Mr. Brunson will leave us soon, and it is with regret the people, regardless of denomination. give him up. He has done good work here, and made many warm friends. Presiding Elder Browne presided over the Conference, and he too, will be placed in charge of another field, having served. Sumter District the me limit, On Friday evening November 23rd, there will be given by the ladies of the churches an oyster, fish and turkey supper with barbebue for the finishing touches. The supper will be given in the hall over Mr. Stack's store. Every one is cordially invited to come and bring a crowd with plenty of dough. remember the date and place and tell all your friends. A small tenant house belonging to Mr. H. D. Plowden. and occupied by Mrs. Missouri Richbourg, on church street, caught on fire. but through the prompt and efficient work of the fire engine, the young men succeeded in putting the fire out before much dam age was done. This was but another demonstration of t.he wisdom of the council in purchasing the fire ap paratus. It is gratifying to THE TIMES _editor that so many people approve his call for a mass meeting to discuss matters pertaining to the county, and he hopes it will belargely attended, and every section will be represented. Better roads, lien law, contract law, new court. house and other matters can be dis cussed with profit to the taxpayers, and the representatives will have a better idea of the people's needs. The depot and postoffice at Jordan was destroyed by fire early yesterday morning, and it is supposed that rob bery of the depot was the cause. The records of the postoffice together with a small amount of stamps was destroy ed. Mr. Bradley the postmaster thought he had succeeded in saving the records but what he recovered frouvthe burning building was other books. The department was wired to yesterday. The carnival is here and drawing good crowds. The shows are clean and worth the money. The Smith peo ple carry no gamblers, and they do rot stand for illegal grafting. Everybody can-attend this aggregation of shows, and get all that is coming to them. The "Colored Aristocracy" gives an hour of mirth provoking fun, Zora is beautiful. The Russo-Jap war is an instruction. The high diver, the best you ever saw, and the lady on the trapeze in all right. Come and have a good time, since the thing is here. Just at this time, when notices from the banks of notes due, all coming in fast and furious, our deliquent sub scibers should be remined that charity is noble. There are many of our readers who do not realize how tight the screws of debt are pressing us, or they would come to our relief. Let us beg our friends to look at the label on their paper, and it will tell them when their subscription expired. We need the money to pay our debts. The amount you owe us is small, it will not hurt you to pay it, but where there are so many small amounts,the aggregate is a large sum, and it remaining outstand ing is burdening us. We have never ressed our subscribers, but we must now ask them to help us bridge over the tight times. Again one of Clarendon's degenerates is in the limelight, not drunk and dis orderly as is her common custom, but this time she assumes the role of an injured wife endeavoring to reclaim a dissolute husband, who has joined Barnum & Bailey's circus, and was about to cut the cord of his matrimon ial handrance by leaving his entire never-to-be-forsaken bride to launch upon the stream of grass widowhood, and in her endeavors to grasp this brand from the burning she is knocked down by the brand and is found be neath the circus cars, where in a few moments she might have been convert ed into a mass of sausage meat. The heroine of this disgusting story is Nel lie Bryant, a womnau of notorious char acter, and many wild rar Nfications of debauchery and sin. On ast Friday night the'police in Columbia found this creature in an unconscious condi tion under the circus train, and she was taken to the police station, where, after she was revived, she told a story about following her husband from Dar lington to keep him from going off with the show. He knocked her under the cars and left, but she declined to give the name of this husband. If Nellie Bryant was ever married nothing is known of it at her home in Clarendon. The Federal and State commissioners met in the court house yesterday to canvass the returns of the election held on the 6th instant. The result showed a whole lot of indifference on the part of the voters, more than one half that went to the polls did not go about the Federal box, and many that voted in the State boxes declined to vote on the constitutional amendment. The State and County officers received each, 1314 votes, while the Congress man got about half as many. At Pax ville a very few spiteful voters scratch ed the Senator, as if their little con duct would make any difference t~) him, and one - of the scratchers, we understand, is a man who expects to get an office which must come under the Senator's confirmation. If a voter violates his primary pledge is he en Inoeisfted Sil Impoverished soil, like impov erished blood, needs a proper fertilizer. A chemist by analyz ing the soil can tell you what fertilizer to use for different products. If your blood is impoverished your doctor will tell you what you need to fertilize it and give it the rich, red corpuscles that are lacking in it. It may be you need a tonic, but more likely you need a concentrated fat food, and fat is the element lacking ini your system. There is no fat food that is so easily digested and assimi lated as Scott's Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil It will nourish and strengthen the body when milk and cream fail to do it.

The Federal Comraissioners re ceived by mail a formal protest from lAaron Prioleau giving notice that he will contest the seat of Hon. Geo. S. Legare. Prioleau is in the Charleston jail, convicted in the United States court for tampering with the mails. but this shoc-button-head statesllan has got the nerve to contest a seat in Congress, and will continue to have as long as Congress allows expenses to such cattle. The Tenth Anniversary. On Sunday. November 25th. the Bap tist Church will celobrate the Tenth Anniversary of the dedication of its present building. Visiting Ministers and Singers have been invited to assist in this service. The public is cordially invited to attend these exercises. Mass Meeting. The time is drawing near for the General Assembly to meet. and feeling anxious to confer with the taxpayers of the county upon matters of importance to their interests, I assume the respon sibility for calling a mass meeting of the taxpayers of Clarendon counsty to assemble in the court house Monday December 3rd. to consider the advisa bility of instructing the legislative del egation to take steps towards provid ing the means to build a new court house, and to consider and discuss a plan for better roads, and other matters pertaining to the welfare of the county. I do hope the attendance at this meeting will be from every section of the county and that all of the Repre sentatives elect to the lower house will be present.11 Respectfully, Louis APPELT, Senator-elee.t.

Prop. ZULU WAR TACTICS. Method of Attack With the Crescent F'ormationl. Zulu military tactics are associated with the name of Tyaka, the ruthless Zulu conqueror, who welded into the stock of the Amazulu, the people of the heavens, all the young men of the va rious tribes he conquered, incorporat ing them ito regiments and thu~s building up a powerful military na tion. Yet it was to Dingisiwayo, the wanderer, that the inception was due. This man, the son of the chief of the Umtetwa, wvas driven into exile in con sequence of an abortive plot to seize the reins of powecr. During that exile he lived in Cape Colony and saw the military methods of the British. With instinctive gentus he saw how the idea could be adapted to his owvn nation, and, on his return and accession to the chieftainship he divided his people into regiments. dis tinguishing them by names and'eby a special color of shield for each regi ment, though for a time thefretained the umkomto, or throwing assagal, -as their chief weapon. He heard the great use made by the British infantry of their favorite weapon, the bayonet, and so he replaced the umk-omto by the ixwa, or broad bladed stabbing assa The- peculiarity of the Zulu tactics has earned It the name of the crescent formation for attack, and it 'is note worthy that, broadly speaking, it was the method employed by the Tjoers in their invasion of Natal and ado~ted by Lord Roberts iii his advance through Orange River Colony, and it was the fear of its success which kept the Boers continually on the run. The best thing with which to compare it is the head of the stag headed beetle. Horns are thrown out widely on either flank. while the main body forms the head itself. From the main body a small force is detached to engage the enemy while the horns creep around the flanks. -This force in the days of Tyaka was frequently dispattched with the com mand, 'Go, sons of Zulu, go and re turn no more," and death ait thie hands of their fellows was the fate of thoso who returned. While this force was holding the enemy the horns carried out their task if possible, and as soon as the two horns had met in the rear of the enemy the head or chest was launched upon the position, and the upshot was ~that the whole force of the foe tasted the assagai, for in war no quarter was given or asked.-South African Sun.
