The Baptist church is being renovat ed. preparatory to painting. The Ervin fiats on Church Street are about ready for occupancy. Maj. Abe Levi left this morning for a Zew days at Atlantic City, N. J. Miss Lulve Harvin of Columbia vis ited her home in Manning this week. Just turn out next Sunday and see my new hat. It makes me look so cute. Mrs. Carrie Nation is still alive thank you, the reports to the contrary notwith standing. Mrs. D. D. Salley of Orahgeburg is visiting her parents here Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Harvin. Several from this town expect to at tend the musical festival in Columbia beginning on the 20th. Mr. W. E Selby, of Columbia, and Mr. Carlisle Strauss, of Sumter, spent Sunday in Manning. The high schools of Manning and Sumnmerton will receive aid from the State high school fund. Professor J. C. Daniel. and Charlton DuRant, Esq., have been re-appointed on the county board of education. Mr. F. L. Wolfe and family went to Charleston Saturday for a few days of pleasure and returned yesterday. The plans for the Manse have been made, and it will not be long before the pastor will be in more commodious quarters. . A charter has been issued for the Avant Consolidated Company of Sum merton, with a capital stock of $.5,000. Manning's population is not as large as a great many towns but the spirit of building is here all the same. Watch this town growv. Capt. T. E. Fisher, of Charleston,.for the past weeic has been in Manning visiting the family of his father-in-!aw, Mr. A. E. Breedin. Mr. Albert Galloway and his bride. after spending several days in Manning with his parents, left for their home in Clinton Monday. Charleston and Columbia are t-ying hard to play ball. We shall see which of these cellar champions will win the down and out cup. Next Sunday morning there will be special services at the Methodist church for Easter. Special music has been arranged and the public is invited to attend. There will be anloyster supper for thbe benefit of the baseball club at Jordan Friday evening, at the school house. They want everybody to go. eat., and be entertained. Dr. Geo. Allen Huggins, formerly of Manning, who holds a responsible posi tion with the Philip Carey Company, Cincinnati, spent the week-end here visiting his sister Mrs. D. M. Bradham. Died suddenly at his home in Greely ville last Saturaav morning, Mr. John F. Register, aged about 39 years. The deceased leaves a wife and three chil dren. He was interested in several enterprises and was highly esteemed. It is said that Captain D. JT. Brad ham is the only man now living in Claren don county who was a corrimissioned odicer in tbe Confederate army. All of the other officers have passed over the river. Unless council extends the time there will be many in this town caught not having complied with thc recent sani tary regulations. We know of a num ber who have been unable to get the work done. The man we spoke of last week who went around the world to reach Man ning when there was three trains going in the direction of his nome, says the more he tries to explain the cause the more confusing it becomes. not even can he make his wife understand. Mr. R. M. Burgess has received notice that he has been given employment with the Pullman Car Company as conductor. Hie expects to leave in a few days to enter the Charleston onlice to be "broke in." We are satistied that Mr. Burgess has all the qualifications to make an Al conductor. The Eph Williams Company of col ored performers which showed in Man nIng recently had a tragic accident last Saturday night at Hartsvi!!e. Several of the men and horses were burned to des h in a car, the probable cause was fr ,m a cigarette carelessly thrown down There vgill be U protracted ineetim, at the Methodist church, beginning Monday evening, lastin ten days O1 two weeks. Rev. F. H1. Shuler, th< pastor, will be assisted by the itev. J W. Spealke, of Spartanbur-g. Tho pub lic is cordiaiiy invited and urged b the pastor. to attend these services. There has:recently been a party o prospectors in the Brewington section examining the earth on the hill of thE lake to see the quality of the Fuller' earth said to be plentiful there. Thi is not the first time this soil has beer examined, and it would not surprise us if some day it will become of value foi manufacturing purposes. On the night of the 2nd inst.. the gir house on the Coards place, near Sum merton. was destroyed by tire. The property belonged to M1r. A. S. 3riggs who informed us that he lost a lot of fertilizer, planting cotton seed of fine quality, all of his machinery, besides farming implements. The loss he thinks will amount to about z3000. Mr. Briggs is satisfied the fire was set. W. N. Powers who formerly was em - ployed by Mr. P. B. Thorn of Kingstree, was arrested in Florida on the charge of bigamy, having married a young woman in the Hebron section of Wil liamsburg county, and it is alleged that he also has a wife and children at Georgetown. He was taken to Kings tree by Sheriff Graham to be tried at the next term of court. The colored farmers conference meets here Saturday April 15th. At the last meeting of the negro farmers a corn club was organized and many success ful farmers joined. At the Saturday's meeting plans will be laid to secure premiums for those who produce the largest quantity of corn to the acre at least cost. It is expected that the meeting will be largely attended. The carnival has gone from here to Darlington, and so far as we are con cerned, let joy go with it. However, we can truthfully say that the M1etro politan Carnival Company which show ed here last week was about the cleanest that has ever visited this town. There were no gambling joints, no vulgar ex hibitions, and no indecencies so far as we could learn. It was a carnival though, and these kind of shows have had their day. There was a gentleman in Manning last Friday representing the Western U-nion Telegraph Company who told us that while in St. Louis recently he met a young man in that city holding the im :ortant position of Chief Air Brake In pector for the Southern Railway. with headquarters at St. Louis, who is a native of Manning. His name is Allen Francis. He says tris young man has an elegant home and is prosperous and receives a salary of $3,500 a year. Of late we have received requests to change addresses without the parties Ziving the address where the paper is going. We have often asked that when eer a change of address is desired to state where the paper has been sent in >rder that we can comply with the re quest without delay. To illustrate, if The Times has been going to Jordan, and it is desired to change to Sumter let the request say, "change address from Jordan to Sumter." This will insure imnediate attention. A colored boy by the name of Isaac erverance, who was subject to epliptic fits, went fishing last 'Monday night in x Swamp, back of the J. D. Holladay place, near Manning, and not return ing home, his family became alarmed, d his brother-in-laev, yJeff Cockerill, ent to serch for him. He found tracks n the swamp, following these, he came pon a log on which was a bait can md a fishing line, pulling the line it as d iscovered fastened, he continued ulling and drew up the body of the oy, which evidently had fallen into the water while he was in one of his [its. The coroner was noti!Sed and the nquest rendered a veroilct of accidental rownieg. We dirtt the attention of The Times eaders to the advertisement of A. Abrams in this issue. Read it. there s something to ponder over. He tells ou what he proposes to do, and what s expected of the trading public in rder to take advantage of his offerings. Abrams has arranged with Thbe Times o keep In close touch with the trading ublic and from time a. '.me he will, trough these columns, gi~e the people a hunch" on prices. A brams has now the largest and best stock he has ever arried and if there is anything in buy ng and selling on a close margin to do usiness he will give it a thorough r-out. So read his ad vertisement and hen visit his store and examine his oods. The ordinance adopted by council pro viding for the sanitary arrangements of water closets has a good purpose and if it :ould be thoroughly carried out we be lieve it would be beneficial, but we have grave doubts of it being made practic able. The trouble with carrying out such laws is that there is noway to pre vent the purpose of the ordinance being defeated by the carelessness of those who use the closets, and unless the screens arp kept closed the expense en tailed to comply with the ordinance would be useless. The requirement is made at the suggestion of the State board of health and it has the approval of the local board also. The doctors think that flies carry disease, and by screening the closets will lessen the chances of typhoid fever. To require the closets screened, and leave the stables and hog pens to breed flies. seems to us like trying to bail out a well with a pitch fork. Mlanning has a citizen who is gifted with prophecy, and when he has visions he lets his friends know so that when the dream happens they are pre lared fcr the event. Our prophet is 'Mr. D. M. Lesesne. Within the recent past he had a vision which told him that the next Governor of South Carolina would be John G. Richards. He pre dicted the election of Governor Blease, and he also predicted the election of Clarendon's senator: not only so. when the election of the senator was in doubt Mr. Lesesne said that a re-count of cer tain boxes would show a difference in favor of the man declared nominated. One of the box~es he named was re counted. and it did show a difference of four. Mr. Lesesne claimed that there were similar discrepencies in two other boxes sufficient to increase t he majority considerably. -Whenever "Dee" has 'em. and do they come irrespective of the condition of the moon, he makes his friends sit up and take notice. We shall wait to see the outcome of his latest prophecy with regard to the next governor, and if Richards is the choser: one then our faith in M~anning's Sect will be immovable. Extensive Order for New Eqnipment. The Atlantic C)oast Line isshowing its faith as to future conditions, iz: that it has placed the following ex tensive order for additional equip ment: 15 Pacific type passenger engines; 2( large freight engines; 25 passengei ICoaches: 4 Combination Hail and ex press cars; 1400) box cars; 50 Phos phate cars: 50 ballast cars; 20 caboose cars. This equipment will be delivered during the summer, and will pilacE the Coast Line in position to meet the demands of the traveling and and shipping public. This large order of freight equip. m ent, taken in connection with the extensive dou'ale tracking and dredge wvork going on at varioni points on the line, indicates that the Atlatic Coast Line proposes to keet in the front ranks of Southern Rail Her Goal Reached. One of the most beautiful lives it has been our good fortune to observe was I bourne away to her eternal home at d early morn Sunday 9th inst. Mrs. Fanny Jane McFaddin.relict Of the late Joseph Sydney MeFaddin. in the 73rd year of her age. peacefully passed out of this life at the home of Mrs. M. L. Sauls. I one of her daughters, in Manning. She 2 came to Manning from her country home to spend a few days with Mrs. J. n H. Hawkins, a daughter, and on Satur- I day went, to the home of Mrs. Sauls to be near church to attend the service in I the morning. That night she retired I in her usual heaith but about midnight 11 comphiined of feeling unwell; her phy- - sician was sent for and he promptly ad ministered, and remained with her until I about two o'clock: her condition seemed improved. he left, a little later she said E she was not comfortable, and her son in-law Dr. J. H. Hawkins raised her up, b and she sweetly passed away. n The deceased was a grand woman, devoted to her children, friends and C relatives, and their name is legion, for C she w.s connected by blood and mar riage t- most of the old families in this C and adjoining scounties: she was loved D and respected by all. Mrs. McFaddin was a woman of strong piety. devoted to her religion, it was a parL of her life. E .aithful member of tbe Presbyterian A c'urch from early childhood, and, in which, she brought up her large family of children. Her husband who pre- Y deceased her in iSS1 was a prominent s< citizen and an Elder in this church. T The surviving children are J. S. Mc- F Faddin. of Baltimore: J. McDowell sI McFaddin, Mrs. S. J.

Woodson, who reviewed the life of this saintly mother. and pointed out si to the bereaved the consoling thought P that her life's ambition has been ful- b filled, the goal for which she battled di through life has been reached. and that now she sits on the right hand of the di Throne: the music was solemnly beauti- 0 ful and seemed a rehearsal of the heav- 10 enly life of the departed, who, although O no longer bere-in the flesh, is here in spirit to guide and care for her loved U ones who some day will join her in the tf world beyond. se The pallbearers were four grandsons tl and two neohews.

Just before the ceremony Miss Eva I Mabaffey sang "Protestatians," and her sweet voice was greatly admired. al Then Miss Jane Kennedy struck the w chords of Mendelssohn's weddin march and the bridal party entered the church.

The fact that Victor Herbert's famous orchestra has been engaged would alone attract the attention of the whole music ti world to Columbia's festival.

The Goose Tower. xie In the early years of the fourteenth Ila- century the -free cities"-Hamburg, Lubeck and Bremen-sent a delegation uise of seventy-seven members to Ki-ng ide Valdemar to demand increased rights ret and privileges in their trade with Den ial, mark. The delegates were not very respectful in their language and de ag- meanor. and the king, who was at arl Vordingborg, told them they acted like a drove of geese and clapped them into prison in the tower, telling them -tle they would stay there until they learn "Ic- ed better manners. Over the heavy ur tower door the king put up a stone tta with the inscription: fe. Sieben und siebenteg Hause: ste Sieben und slebenteg Ganse; !s. Ware nicht so viele Hause Hat ich auch nicht so viele Ganse. Translated this reads: "Seventy seven houses and seventy-seven geese. ine If there were not so many houses I )n, would not have so many geese." On top of the tower, which still )v- stands solid and strong, was placed a eil big gilt goose, with neck outstretched er. asif it were hissing. The Jerboa and the Melons. 3 An odd fact relative to a little Afri can melon is thus related by an offi cial of Khartum: 1 The jerboa or kangaroo rat is found in considerable numbers in places miles 2 and miles away from any water or even dew, and I vas at a loss to un derstand how tuese little animals could 0exist through the ten months of o drought. It appears, however, that after the scanty rains a small wild melon of bitter taste, but full of juice, flourishes in the desert. The jerboa, th as soon as the melon is ripe, bites off ad the stem and proceeds to dig away u- the sand under the melon, so that it n- gradually sinks below the level of the n, -ground. The constant wind soon cov n, ers it with six to eight inches of sand, )e which protects it from the scorching ad sun and from drying up. When all Us other moisture has evaporated the jer i boa goes to his larder and drinks the juice of the melon till the rains come el on again. One jerboa will bury as m. many as forty of these little melons o to last him through the dry season. ds d. The Automobile. ad In some respects the automobile is ,e the. most marvelous machine the world d has yet seen. It can go anywhere at - any time, floundering through two feet r' of snow, ford any stream that isn't deep enough to drown out the mag neto, triumph over mud axle deep, jump fences and cavort over plowed ground at fifteen miles an~ hour. It has been used-with brilliant success in various kinds of hunting, including coyote coursing on the prairies of Col g- orado, where it can run all around the d. broncho, formerly in favor, since it nev c- er runs any risk of breaking a leg in s, a prairie dog hole. Educated automo biles have been trained to shell corn, -d saw wood, pump water, churn, plow, e. and, in short, do anything required of n- them, except figure out where the con - sumer gets off under the tariff law. id Outing. es Teacher's Examination, May 5, 1911. >n The next Teacher's Examination will It. be held at the court house in Manning on Friday, May 5th, 1911, beginning ce promptly at 9 o'clock.
