I> The glorious Fourth was celebrated \Manning with a double-header ball tr .me between Sumter and1 Manning.The go tinter boys could not play ball, and it is evident from the start. The first Ih: .me resulted in Manning dressint gr em down with a score of S to 0: a su arciful rain came along and saved J e e Sumnterites from further humilia- ni: >n. The second game was almost as e d, for again Sumter peeped out at p e little end of the dilema. Manning as >n the second game with a score of 4 wI 1. The Sumter Mechanics ought not sel go away from home to play ball, we ey might do all right in the back lots sp ouind Sumter. but when they under- a ke to play in town like Manning they th ast realize that they are not one, two, ree-.t THE TTns editor, who is a candidate fal Sre-election to the Senate, has been a 'ormed that there has recently been a f rty out profesing to be electioneering in his interests, and he wishes it dis- er actly understood, that he has not re- b essed nor employed this or any other WI rson to electioneer from him, that he gi lies solely upon the people themselves r his return to the Senate, and that is absolutely opposed to having men sployed to go over the country elec meering for him. If any man went, in- mi any section of this county as the h~ nkesmn for THE Tnra editor, it was IE thout authority. If he has a friend th ing in a comunnity who voluntarily a terests himself, it is appreciated, bute cautions his friends to look upon per- c ibulators from this section as impos- in 's, their pretended friendship is a 1 ek, which will crop out later. The ci st and safest plan is to gieteep-s rnbulators the "aha." ieths e The ball fans were greatly disap- sol inted last Thursday in not being able ar play ball. The rain beat them to is. toi inter was here good, strong and bc ingry to "eat 'em alive;'' they have 4 the time 'o practice, and came to co inning fresh from a series of games WI th St. Matthews, therefore they were1 ra good fetter. The Manning boys, were sci t only without practice, but they ye done no team work whatever, not cu en having had an opportunity to play r'a ge.ber, therefore it would not have f m en much of a victory had they played ar Thursday and Sumter won. Friday e boys managed to get out on the ~iden lot to play a double-header. The tendance was not quite as good as ey have it when the big leagers play Detroit or Chicago, but they started any way. The first game resulted in inter getting itbyva score of I to 0. a iich was in our opinion a splendid hievement for Manning considering: eir lack of pmectice, and team work. ie second was broken into by the rain out the third inning, and th~ey had to c lohn D.

He went into he war a lad of about 16 years, fough1 l through it and was often spoken ec .s one of the "South's most daring and >rave.'' He took an active interest in ocal affairs, always taking a position or the good of his county and State. Ic als community he was a friend and kelper by his excelleUt counsel. Mr. MlcFaddin had a most genial na ure. alwasv.. had a warm greeting for hose he came in contact with. He was delightful companion, and a splendid itizen. His home life was most beauti u!. a devoted wife and loving children atelligent and relined, and in this home is friends and his neighbors were wel ome. S. J. McFaddin was the most un e:tish man we ever knew. and his death as removed a patriot and a gentleman. The following account and sketch was eat to The State from Harvin: Harvin, July 4.-Capt. Sam John Mc 'addin. who had been so very ill from eptic poison for the past few days, died bis morning at 5 o'clock. The funeral ervices were conducted at the family esidience at 4 P. in.. by Iter. A. R. Voodson and the interment in the Man ing cemetery. Mr. McFaddio was ending his G6th ear at the time of his death. He was a rominent aud active member of the 'resbyterian church. taking much in rest in all that tended toward the rogress and uplift of religious work in eneral. and the church of his choice in articular. Mr. McFaddin had his early :hooling at Whitney academy. Whit ey. Ga.: from Whitney. Ga.. he enter I King's Mountain Military academy. ad from there he entered the Confed rate army, joining Butler's cavalry, rving faithfully through the entire ivil war. In 18~6 he served his State Tectually in the united effort to redeem outh Carolina from corrupt rule. He married Miss Kate Hodee of this ace, and isaurvived by his widow and ne children, M'rs. Ben H. Harvin, A. MeFaddin of Columbia, Mrs. J. B. rogdon of Harvin, NMises Maggie, ittie. Eunice and Edith and Joseph D. [cFaddin and Mrs. L. J. Nettles of partanburg. It is reliably stated that he was one of number who, amid a terrific fire from se Union army. rescued the late Judge . C. Haskeli when he was severelv ounded in the head which caused the ss of an eve. In the death of Mr. McFaddin, Claren m county loses an intelligent modest mntleman. a patriotic citizen, a devoted bristian, whose every effort in life was r the betterment of mankind, and the -omotion of all that tended to good gov -nment and honesty and patriotism in unty, State and national policies-a 3ristian. a patriotic gentleman of the d school has gone to rest. The County Fair. Mr. W. T. P. Sprott of Foreston was Manning yesterday in the interest of e county fair project. Whether the rmers and merchants of this county come suaiciently interested to take active part in getting up the fair we not know, but that they should is t to be questioned. If the fair is to a success there is one thing certain at its support, in the way of contri itions, must come from all over the unty anid not from a few individuals the county seat. Summerton should as liberal as Manning; Pinewood ould comue across as well as Sardinia .d Turbeville, Paxville, Foreston, ivis Station and the other business ints together with the help of the rmers themselves, should make con ibutions of that whicn is necessary e success-money. The county fair idea is a good one, it s a stimulating effect and results in eat good, but to make the project ccessful something more than wind is eded. Manning by itself cannot fur shi the money ftor the fair and if those :o are pushing the scheme are de oding on Mlaiming alone, they might well save their labor now. The iole county must go into the fair bieme with an enthusiasm that will be >rthi while, it must go into it with a irit to help the county and not with purpose of making something for emselves. We believe in countyv fairs and hope is one will be made a success, and so Sas this newspaper is concerned, we e willing to give the scheme all the se publicity that we can, but as we timated before. there must be a gen tl pull-together, and if this cannot had, then the proposition may as 11l be abandoned before expense be. is to be made.

From henceforth for twelve motzths will our legal documents be designat ed as drawn in the "135th year of the Independence of the 1inited States.' In other words. to'lav. the 4th day of July coitmeinorates the birthday of America's independence. Or to put uore mnodern expression to the satne fact, today is the "Worious Fourth." But for the closed doors. Summerton ians might lose sight of the fact for as vet none of the significant evi dences are apparent; but on the other hand, our farmers are celebrating in their own peculiar way. So welcome i: Zhe sunshine that they are putting forth every effort to get in soune much needed attention to tneir crops. This section has been having entirely too much rain. and even the more opti mistic of our planter friends are esti mating the coming crop at an aver ace of ;O per cent. The claving of the Eastern portion of Main street is being pushed stead ily forward, as are also some snaaller improvements in the streets within the town. The recent rains have lei some badly washed places in the low portions of town, but the town coun cil together with the county gan:g is gradually but surely reaching them all. The North Western Railroad's corps of workmen have been occupied for the past ten days on that part of the road in and around Summerton. They are now engaged in filling in the Taw t Caw trestle abnut a mil- from this depot. This seetus to be a wise un dertaking, and will no doubt render transportation much safer. We do not now consider oarselves too vision ary to iuuse upon the probability of improved accommodations on the North Western. We are even accept- I ing the rumor that a passenger and mail train is to be put in operation at the beginning of another year. On last Wednesday. a number of young people had a very enjoyable all-day trip to Scott's Lake. At the instigation of Mr. Pete Anderson the excursion was planned, and suffice it to say that the participants got their full measure of pleasure therefrom. In spite of several hard showers during the day, the outing was quite a suc cess, and none were inconvenienced by the slight "ducking." On Friday evening, Miss Annie Rut-, ledge entertained in a most charming manner in honor of her guest, Miss Sopbia Branson. The disappointment occabioned the guests upon their ar rival to find that the guest of honor had been detained, was soon compen sated for in the many pleasures of the evening. Quite a number of the town's young people faced the un promising weather and were happy participants of Miss Rutledge's hos pitality. Mrs. J. C. Baily and children are visiting at the home of Mr. M.

After the contest cream and cake were served. Music and gaines made the affair a most pleasant one. Another enjoyable social functioni was that of an excursion party Thursi day evening at the Methodist parson-' age for Miss Pauline Horton of Heath' Springs. In the large parlor chaiis were arranged so as to present the ap pearants of seats in a street car. Th esel were filled with couples and the ex cursion began with Rev. E. P.

June 26th, the people of Olanta, both young and old. had; their souls refreshed by another sing. ing convention, at the Methodist church The convention of last yeAr had such a wide spread effect on the people that they came from far and' near to help partake of the blessing and sing their Creator's praises. The convention was advertised well and proved to be a great success. At 10 o'clock, after the church had been filled and every one quiet. Mr. F. W. Truluck. manager of the con. vention. rose and gave a short ad dress of welcome and a few remarks about the convention, then prayer was offered by Rev. Will Truluck. Immediately after this the choir was arranged on the rostuin. facing the audience and began to sing, "I Love to Tell the Story." From 10 until 11 o'clock was spent in singing old familiar hymns. From 12 until 1:30 o'clock was given for all to eat lunch. After noon the singing began again, and for about two hours proved to be the climax of the day, it was spent in special selections of songs. First, was a male quartet, 'We Will Sing a New SonX," by Messrs. Truluck, Merritt, Gamble and Gamble. Second. a vocal solo. "Tcll Mother Ill Be There,', by Mr. Merritt. Third, a male quartet, "We're Going Down The Valley," by Messrs. Merritt, Truluck, Floyd and Gamble. Fourth, a mixed quartet, "Worthy is The Lamb," by Misses Lizzie and Letha Thomas, Messrs. Floyd and Truluck. The convention was conducted a zhort while by Mr. L. Truluck, leader of the Btbel Baptist church choir. He aroused the spirit of the convention and led everal beautiful songs. The con ention was then conducted by Prof. Lerrict, whose wonderful voice makes him gifted as a leader. He arged the entire audience to join in singing, which proved to all that his fforts were not in vain. Mr. E. Gamble led the convention n singing several songs which pleas d the hearers very much. Mr. Gam ble is widely known for his wonder ul voice and cheerful disposition. The convention was very glad to 1ave Rev. Will Trulack, of Concord, who gave a short talk on music. The Ludience gladly received his remarks which were inspiring and elevating ;o each and eveiy human heart. The convention was favored at his period by a voexl solo, "Over L'he Line," by Miss Letha Thomas.I The music was successfully kept ip ov the organis.t of the church, kiss Lizzie Thomas, assisted by Prof. ierritt. At 4 o'clock the convention closed ~rih several old familiar songs for lie old folks, the last ',being God Be ith You 'Til We Meet Again." I The convention proved to be a suc ess which was due to Mr. Truluck's nanagement. Prof.: Truluck's inilu nce aod devoted service as lae f this convention will always be ppreciated by those who attend. The convention closed with prayer vy Mr. Green.
