The county board of equalization held a meeting in the court house yesterday. There has been a remarkable stright ening of the feetlately, due no doubt te our concrete sidewalks. L D. Jennings. Esq., has been nomi nated Mayor of Sumter, defeating the incumbent W. B. Boyle. Cpt. W. C. Davis has joined the antrmobile cranks. He brought to town yesterday a bran new Ford. Wanted in Manning now several good dress makers. This town offers a fiD6 opening for such a vocation.

Look o~it poor folks for the honk-honk, anid then scat ter. The court house square has been pined in grass, and notices should be put on to keep people from trampling upon it. THE Tnima. editor reached the 53rd milestone yesterray. The old man is be ginn~ing to trot down toe road at a live ly clip now. Governor M. F. Ansel has appointei Capt. D. J. Brardham magistrate foi Manning in the place of Mr. E. C. Dick son, resigned. As long as-acards noit bitethere ing, and applicable to the oriinary ex perience of man. Manning must be getting famous foi i's stock market. Last Thursday one o the Sumter dealers came here to bua from our dealers. Mrs. J. F. Rhame accompanied b: Mrs. M. R Davis, left Monday for Ho Spri-s Ark. Mr. J. F. Rhame wen with them as far as Atlanta, and return home this A. M. Married as Lake City on March 4tJ by Rev. W. L. Waite. at the home e the bride, Mr. E. S. Kennedy and Mis Daisy Goodwin. The groom is a citizei of the Sardinia section. Remember it is the early bird tha catches the worm, so we suggest to th< gentlemen who aspire to offer them selves as a political sacrifice to let it b known early as we need the fiyer. Tbe communication from New Zioni not printed because it is not accompan ied by the name of the writer. We pos irtively will not print any commumica -tions that are without the name of th writer. The Republican county chairman wa convicted yesterday in Lancaster fo violating the dispensary law. He ha not been sentenced yet, but he will prot ably get a fine of $100 or thirty days o the gang. The trial of the Rehobeth school cas was tried last Thursday, the party ac ensed of assaulting the teacher pleade guilty and was fined p25. We had hope the matter could have been adjuste without carrying it to the court. The stoc-k of goods of the Strauss-Rc gan Company at Summerton was sold a auction yesterday and bought in for tb Summerton Mercantile Company fo about 65ecents on the dollar. There wer several bidders from other towns. Died at her home near Pinewood s Wednesday after a long illness. Mr: Mary C. Richardson, relict of the 1at Dr. James B. Richardson, aged abet seventy years. The funeral took plac at St. Marks church. The deceased leal es four sons and one daughter. The stranger in this town seekcin "something to drink" had better t careful to whom he trusts his money b< fore he gets the booze, because the hun ers for booze are suspected detective and the tiger element are gettang gut shv. On last Thursday night a strange who was out on the streets in the day tin selling jewelry, approached a darkey1 ge him some liquor, and gave the fe ow eighty-five cents to maze the pu chase, and now the stranger cannot ui derstand why the soon does not conr back. I I. Post of;ce box rents are duce. T7he who have no: paid by the morninz of the 1st of April, will hare their boxes cios ed, and they will be rented to another. as there are several applicants waiting for a box. Go now and pay so as to se cure the box that you have been useing! all along. Dr. E. 0. Watson of Columbia, tilled the Methodist pulpit last Friday even ing at this place, and be delivered a most magniicent addras on Home Mis sions. We regard his tribute to the New South as fine a piece of oratory as we have ever listened at. The entire ad dress was a masterpiece. The Trinity debating society recently had an election for Governor: the can didates nominated were McLeod, Feath erstone and Blesse and the vote an nounced was, McLeod. 49t Featherstone. 4; and Blesse, 19. If this is an indica tion of the sentiment of Clarendon Mc Leod is by a long shot the favorite. The town of Foreston was visited by a fire Tuesday of last week, and destroyed a two story building occupied by a scbool down stairs and the %lasonic lodge up stairs, and a dwelling ijoining belong ing to Mrs. Agnes Drose. The Masonic lodge lost its entire parapbenslia. The Masonic lodge bad a small insurance. The first marriage license was issued in Greenwood last Thursday. Several have inquired about this Act. but we were unable to give the information be cause we were-not certain that it found its way through the lower house. The Act should be published if it passed. so the people might comply with the law. We are informed that Mr. W. E. KeeLs, who was recenLir recommended for the position of census enumerator for Plowdens Mill township. has moved to Georgetown to accept a po-ition there. The census taking is to begin the 15th of next month. and we presume the supervisor will fill this vacancy at once. Hon. Richarn I. Manning of Sumter. has definately announced that he will be a candidate for governor in the coming primary this summer. This announce mnent although expected, will cause some changes all over the State. as Mr. Manning has a considerable following in every county. He is a Local Option ist, this time. In another column we publish a full text of the game law enacted at the re centsession of the general assembly, and would suggest that those interested save, this issue of THE TDES. We found this Act in last week's County Record of Kingstree and presume it is correct. As soon as we can secure a copy of this fish Act our readers shall have it in these columns. There are several animas coming in to this town that should have the at tention of the law officers, who should enforce the law against cruel treatment of animals, some of these horses belong in the town. There is a law upon the statute books forbidding cruelty to beasts, and when a man works a r: ipple animal be should suffer the penalty of the law. The Trinity Literary Society will give an entertainment on Friday night, March 25th. Refreshments will be served, and various kinds of little tricks, which will make a fellow love his mother-in-law, and secure a mar riage license for nim and his other girl before daylight. Admission, one cent a foot, that is, if you are four feet tall you will nay four cents, tive feet, five cents and so on. Come and you will be the last to leave. The town of Lancaster employed de tecives. and on last Saturday they re ported 32 cases. The Mayors court tried four cases, convicted three negroes and one white man. The o:iier cases are yet to be tried. Gee! Lancastzer must have been running wide open ever since the dispensary was vote out,. which made the tigers very tame. but since the au thorities are taking a hand in the game these pesky animals will be more secre tive but the violations wtil go on In a number of towrns in this State the town authorities require these running automobiles to come to a standstill at prominent street corners, it is a good idea and we think council should make a similar rquiremnent at the corner of Brooks and boyce streets. Make them stop within twenty-five feet from the corner, and blow their whistle before starting up again. It might save life or limb. We call attention to the new adver tisement of Dr. D). 0. Rhame of Sum merton, the live busmness wire of that row 4gs town. Doctor Rhamne has prof ited by the use of TEE TitES advertis ing columns, and therefore when he has a good thing to offer to the public he does so through the people's newspaper. Go to his store and be delighted with good music these spring afternoons. The Doctor is au expert performer on the phonograph. To prevent any misunderstanding we think it would be well for all of the can didates for municipal offices L. get to gether and agree upon a blar. t ticket. If it is agreed to we see no reason why all the names of candidates cannot be printed on one ticket, for the voter to scratch as he sees St. Under the law as we understand it this would not be the kind of ticket required for general elec tions, but- an agreement can be made which will make the blanket tickets all riht for practical purposes. The splendid dwelling just completed belonging to Mr. John W. Ridgill about five miles southwest of Manning was de stroyed by fire last Wednesday morning. No insurance. Mr. Ridgill is one of the best farmers in Clarendon and his many friends sy-nuathize with him in his great loss. In trying to save some of the con tents Mr. ~Ridgill was badly burned. Very little of the contents was saved, Iand among the things lost was some very valuable papers that cannot be restored. Rev. R. V. Miller, of Henderson ville, N. C., will be at the Baptist church, beginning April 10th, to teach - a course in Bible study beginning with - Genesis, and conciuding with Revela - t~ions. Mr. Miller will be here about 30 days. He is said to be one of the greatest bible teachers in America, his services are in demand from Canada to Mexico. This is no denomnination'al r affair and the public is cordlially invited s to .ttend, and we may state also there ~will be no charge for these Bible les sons. It is said of this gentle-men that he can reci'.e the New Testament word e for word from memor'y. In looki ng over our subscription list we notice a large number of naimes that are on the verge of being cut ofT be cause their subscriptions expired a year or more ago. Friends., look at the lable on your paper, the date thereon masta you have paid to that date. adudrthe postal regulations, we r cannot send the paper after you are :n e Iarrears one year, unless we aflix a one. cent stamp thereon. Let us urge you Ito give this matter your immediate at a tention, and send in your subscriptions . now, so we will not have to cut your e name off. Manning seems to be marked by those out soliciting alms or money for any and every object: the local char ities we can stand very well because gIwe know who it is asking us, hut we e Iare getting heartily tired of being soli -- cited by people from the length and -breadth of the United States, and o: , course. we do not have to give unles: we want to, vet. a man does not like t<: rrrefuse when called upon by a lady. lt e order to out a stop to this nuisance w( o would sujggest that the council adopl I- an ordinance against this sohciting business. In some places they have -- been forced to resort to such a protec e tion and we think it would be well for Manin to safeguard its citizens. Manning is sadly in need Of dess mkers. and until hey come here there is a great disadvantage to our dry gnods mrchat. We believe it would h o the interes.t of the dry goxls merchants to club together and open up a dress making department, or better still haC at least on- merchant employ dre,' makers to supply the demand for ladies wearing apparel. The concern that does this will be rewarded for its enterprise we have no doubt. In last week's issue there was a card from Mr. B. P. Fulton. asking THE Ticts to give to the :'ublic the names of the members of the Audubon Society in CIarendon. we did not have the names convenient at the time, but since then. we have gone over the report of the so ciety and the following names are given therein as members: C. M Davis Sum wmerton: E. S. Dingle, Summerton: J. W. Lesesne. Summerton: W. M. Plowden, Manning: A. G. Herriott. Manning: C. . Sprott, Manning: Joseph Sprott, Manning: W. E. Jenkinsou: Manning, now living in Kingstree. These gentle men joined the society at tie time the Secretary. Mr. .1. Henry Rice came in to the county and delivered some ad dresses. Mr. Aaron Abrams is back from the markets and the depot contains a large quantity of goods that he will put into his store the latter part of the week. Abrams says the people of this county know nothing of bargains, and will not, until he throwshisdoors open again. He proposes to light the torch so the peopte will come to town and see their way to saving money. and if he hap pens to make anybowy throw a fit it doesn't matter to him. because. he is now prepared to give them hydro phobia, hypocondria, or something else that will make them ztet up nights and wonder how it happened. Just wait before buying until Abrams gets his books out again. which will be in a few days. and he promises to make the wamtng pay you. One of the best citizens of Turbeville, Mr. R. A. Green, dropped dead within about 150 yards of his home last Sunday morning. The deceased had been over to the home of his hall brother. Mr. Willie Rush, and remarked that he was feeling unwell, and started for home, when nearing his house he fell. a nerro woman s w him and ran to Mr. Green's house and called up Mr. Robert Tomlin a neighbor, told him about see ing the deceased. and Mr. Tomlin went at once where he lav in the road. Th. deceased was about 49 years of age, a widower with four cnildren. He was a very industrious man and was in very ood financial circum.tances. He was a member of the lodge of Knights of Py tias of Turbeville, and was a good sub stantial citizen who will be missed. The funeral, which was largely attended, was conducted by R-r. E. P. HutsJO a; Pine Grove church. He was buried with Knightly honors. Itch cured in 30 minutes by Wool ford's Sanitary L)tion. Nver fails. Sold by W. F. Brown & Co., Druggist. Did You See The Hats.

C. DANIEL. A Sad Death at Turbeville. On last Thursday Mr. R. A. Green, of this place, aged about 49 years, whose home was darkened about four years ago by the death of his wife. walked down to the home of Mr. W. F. Rush, about three-fourths of mile, and while in conversation with Mr. Rush, he complained of feeling unwell. and he started to return home. when about one hundred yards from his homne Ihe fell. Mr. Robert McElveen who was plowing near by, noticed Mr. Green walking very fast. and suddenly saw him fall. Mr. McElveen at once went to him oniy to find him derad. Drs. Gamble and Pittman were immediately summoned. but death had already claimed :ts victim. The doctors pro ounced it a case of heart failure. The funeral took place in Pine Gr-ove 'church the next day. conducted by the pastor. Rev. E. P. Hutson. The local lodge of Knights of Pythias conducted the burial service in secordance with the ritual of that order. The deceased was a splendid scitizen, liberal to all worthy causes. a loyal supporter of his church and a warm friend to athe schools. Honest and genteel in his transactions with his neighbors, paid his debts and tooka lively interest in the up-lifting of his neighborhood. He was a great ad mirer of THF. MA~NNING; TIMES and it, editor. The deceased, by his thrift had ac cumulated a Uice property, and wr.s re garded an independent farmer. He *nad many friends, as was attested by .1the immense crowd that attended hi2 funeral, and the manifestationis o: symathv shown to the four orphat children that he left. His memory wil ever be kept green in the minds and hearts of this people who k.:ew and loved him. "-. 20E3EP-Al S-n.merton News. IThe m icipal electio: was duly con ciuded on the evening of the 15th with the following result: Intendant. Dr. D. 0. Rhame: Wardens. Meszrs. 1- . ID. Davi. IT. A Richbourg. H. R. ee!deau and H. A. Tisdale. It was thouciht for some time previous to the day of elec tion that, no one would oppose Dr. D. -(. Rbame. who offered for re-election tc the office of Tntendant: but it was found upon the eventful morning that another prospective ticket was being worked .on the quiet.," which at the pollin" precinct became known a- "the Insur :ents Ticket." This ticke:, presented Mr. 0. G. Keels for Intendant and prac. tically the same lists of wardens; the regular ticket as represented above gained an overheimng' victory with an out-turn of forty odd votes against some fourteen or fifteen. Summertoz: i6 indebted to the previous government for good results. and she has every reason to bope for a continuance thereof dur ing the ensuing year. The immense fertilizer receipts which the planters of this sections are havin: are gratifying inasmuch as the indica tions are encouraging, but an indirect result has been rather annoying. The Northwestern train has been from twe to three hours late every morning for the past week, and the rural mail car riers have been obliged to make their trips without the day's mail. These de la.s have been attributed to the prob able heavy fertilizer shipmrents, togeth er with spring goods. We could not get aiong without these nor can the busines' man bnt be inconvenienced by late mails. Our hopeful citizens are still neering into the future for a Zlimnpf-e ol ihat passeuger and mail train conceded to be something of a necessity to grow ing Summerton. Summerton and surrounding commun itLy h as always been considered especial. ly appreciative of fine horses: and we shall not dare make accusation that sueh appreciation is being diminished, but we fear that there is an instrument ol mobility which will soon come in ic claim its share of attention. Indeed, not a few around town begin to prefer the "honk-honk" to the old-fashioned neigh: Mr. J Asbby Richbourg is the second purchaser of an automobile in Summer tion, but we make no doubt that, ere lon;: they will be quite common. The ladiesof theCemetery Auxiliary Association have recent ly received quite a number of plants to be piaced in the Evergreen Cemetery. We understand t,hat this association has a good member ship, and it is very evident that some. if uo all, are working faithfully wit' an understanding which is unquestion ably a most praise worthy one. A co opera!ou on the part of the ot, ownert is all that is needed to achieve at leas1 a small measure of success. We regret to learn of the probabilit.. of the removal of Mr. S. M . Colclou;: and family to another part of the state 'Mr. Colchough. haring sold out his hard ware busines here.- expects to open i -mi:lar -'estabiishmen.t. in sorne other Carolina town.
