It gave its first performances last evening to good au diences. The pictures are splendid, and there is nothing to offend the mos1 exacting. The management of "Dream land" deserves the patronage of the people, because it took an amount o: enterprise to venture such an under taking in a town of this size. An eve ning's pleasure can be obtained al Dreamland for a nominal cost, anc everybody should go. The childrer will be delighted with it, and 'old anc young will find it a good place to drive Died in Manning at the home of he son.

Creecy. and Hugh Creecy of Min ning. The deceased was the eldest sis ter of Capt' D. J. Bradham, of Greely yille. W. J. Bradham. D. M. Bradham and J. F. Bradham of Manning anc Mrs. J. C. Stukes of Brogcion. Pail bearers: E. L. Wilkins. E. D. Hodge, F. O. Richardson. R. D. Cothran, Dr J. F. Geiger, and James Dickson. The administration of the new coun cii began last Friday evening. All the members were present, and were as signed to their respective committees. The police force remains the same, Mr. R. C. Wells was elected clerk and treasurer. Under a recent. Act of thc general assembly council appointed as a board assessors L. H. Harvin, S. Oliver O'Bryan and C. L. Mcllvcer and as a board of equalization Messrs. David Levi, F. C. Thomas and J F. Geiger. These boards will have a deli cate duty to perform, but if they per form that duty without fear or favor they will receive the thanks of the community. The:e seems to be an idea that the purpose of having these boards, is to raise the valuation of the property that more money may flow into town treasury, but we do not think such is the purpose at all, however, it may result in the taxable income being increased. The main purpose is to put the town property on the books more equitably assessed, and if in a more just assessment some have to pay more taxes it is only because they have not heretofore paid what was their just due. There was a very pleasant gathering at the New Zion school picnic last Sat urday. The day was an ideal one, and those present enjoyed the occasion. The evening before there was a large attendance at the exercises of the New Zion school, which is presided over by Miss Cravan, and who has given such satisfaction to the patrons that they have persuaded her to accept with the aid of an assistent, another term. Miss Cravan has done a good work at New Zion, and the people appreciate her services. Prof. J. C. Daniel of Manning was expected to deliver an address but he was unavoidably detained at home.But the people wanted speeches, so they made Clerk of Court A. I. Barron master of ceremonies, and he called the assemblage in the school room to order and introduced Dr. I. M. Woods, and he gave to the audience a splendid talk He =pointed out the meaning of education, its application, and its uses, and abuses. His remarks were full-of pr&tical thought and well put. Dr. Woods .was followed by THE TmxEs editor, who endeavored to give encouragement to the work of educa tion, now so manifest in that sectfon. After the speeches, dinner was an nounced, and it was a dinner in keep ing with Salem's well edrned reputa tion for hospitality, suffice it to say there was plenty of good things to eat for many times the number, notwith standing the presence of .ohn Player Tom Tobias, Swain Woods and Dan Wheeler. It was indeed a day of real pleasure The ride over there was made over the new road to. Sardinia, and with the exception of a few wash-outs from the recent heavy rains, it is the best. one in the county.r New Zion ~and DuRant played ball and DuRant got licked 7 to 5. Carried Back Bad News. There is an old waw which says, "all things come to those who wait," and considering Manning's ill luck in the base ball past the recent happenings, hope is at last turning its face this way to bring~ success once more to cheer the hearts of our local fans. On last Fri day afternoon Summerton came to Manning in uniform arrayed, and every fellow had in his eye a gleam that spelled Manning's scalp. Why, it was a dead sure thing, a lead pipe cinch, and many of the locals felt a gnawing doubt about their goozzles, because it is common r~ort that there is nc-;ning else done in Summertor these days but knocking Manning by the old, and base balls by the young, while here every fellow old and young is too busy with the things that are tc put this town on faster moving lines. that this is true, come here almost any day since January and there is dis* played great big red lettered signs pro. claiming "Bankrupt Sales," there is no time here for the study of base bal] or other athletics,not in tbislday of fast commercialism. Summerton and Manning joined is. sue, Mr. Frank P. Burgess officiated as umpire, and by it settled all doubts at to his having nerve; any mnan who car successfully umpire a game of iball be tween two such teams, not only dem onstrates a nerve, but he is entitled tc a medalion. The game was played or the school house grounds, and witness ed by a very good crowd. Mr. Ashley Avant managed the Summerton team, and to his good offices can be attributec the squelching of a number of kicks or the umpire's decisions, which, if he was in error, he distributed evenly far both sides. The battery for Summerton was Ten nant and Dingle and for Manning Ise man Wannamaker. It was evident from the beginning that Manning't battery was too much for Summerton. The boys put up a very good game, and gave the spectators much pleasure, until an accident occured to Martin o. Summerton, who was struck by a bal] from Iseman, and it was feared the boi was seriously hurt. but he .was game, and in a short .vhile was all right very much to the gratification of all of us. Sumerton carried back home tht good wishes of Manning and the besl licking of the season, Manning founc Sumter high school an easy mark, bul Summerton was worse the worst ever, The score was Manning 10, Summer ton 2.

The Confederat Veterans Association and various othe Memorial Associrtions have suggestel that this day be observed throughou the South to teach important lesson connected with the life and work c this citizen. It is a good opportunit to impress important lessons in cor nection with the history of the South er Confederacy, and the p~eriod imt mediately preceding it. Some of th schools will close before that date -however let me urge the teacherst take such times as may suit best fc each school, fer some important lessor Iand exercises of this kind. S. P. HOLLADAY, Co. Supt. of Education. Per n. c Convention. The County Democratic Convention assembled last Monday, and was called to order by County Chairman A. .1. flichbourg. Rev. S. H. Booth opened , the proceedings with prayer. When the temporary organization was perfected A. .1. Richbourg was re-elect ed county chairman, H. W. Mitchum secretary, and C. M. Davis member of State executive committee. These officers were re-elected without opposi tion. There being no issue and no contend ing delegates the convention had smooth sailing. A resolution was intro duced toeliminate from the primary the otice of magistrate at Manning. and after considerable discussion was ta bled, but in its stead a resolution elimi n=ting all of the magistrates from the primary was adoptel. This is in the nature of a recommendation to the county executive committee for consid eration when that body meets to ar range for the primary. The following resolutiou was unani mously adopted: Resolv ed, that Clarendon county pre ; sents the name of Charlton DuRant to the State convention as a delegate to the national convention at Denver.

Charlton Durant, D. M. Brad ham, J. R. Dingle, O. C. Scarborough, E. t Plowden and W. C. Davis. Lhe delegates go uninstructed and can use their own judgment.
