Died in Sumter last Sunday evening, Dr. D.' R. Mc( ollum, aged about 79 years. The deceased was well known in Clarendon. The number of Ford automobiles in this county is due to the hustle of Mr. D C. Shaw of Sumter, who advertises in The Times. The young folks, in honor of th~e vis itors, enjoyed a trip to Martin's Lake last niight, but were disappointed in not cettinxg any fish. Cotton has been reported at several markets in this State, so far none has come to this one, but the crop is the best in several years. When you come to town try and think up the happenings in communi ty, ana tell us about it so that we can get it in our news columns. The election at Home Branch school house last Thursday to ad~d an addition al levy of four mills for school purposes was carried by five majority. The Bottling Works of which Mr. E. C. Thames is manager, was burglarized last Saturday night, and the money dawer obbhhd of several dollars, Arant's ad., is worth five cents. Save it. Mr. R. L. Bell who for many years has conducted a wheelwright, black smith and horse shoeing shop in Man ning has decided to open up an estab lisbment at Trinity. Dr. H. H. Huzgins left for Hender sonville Sunday to spend his vacation, and during his absence Dr. White Nel son has charge of the prescription case at the Dickson Drug Store. Charlton DuRant, Esq.. one of the members of the Manning bar, was out last week giving his services in the cam paign against the establishment of the dispensary in Calhoun county. We would ask our readers to scrutin ize the advertising columns of THE TIMS, and then when they are ready to buy goods visit the stores that are eeking trade through the c o u n ty newspaper. There was a double header sale at "lark & Cothrau's warehouse yester lay at which nearly 60,000 pounds was I ;old, altogether Manning sold yester lay about 75,000 pounds of tobacco at prices averaging 16.52 cents. We had a pleasant call this morning from Hon. C. M. Davis, of Summerton, irho is greatly encouraged by the pros pects in his section for a good business ason and he agrees with us in our iews to urge the farmers to plant to )acco as a side crop. Beginning with the service next unday at 5 p. m., the pastor, Rev. C 3eorge Pierce Watson, will conduct a 1 eries of evangelistic services at Trin- t ty throughout the week, at the same 1 2our daily. The public is most cor- s lially invited to attend. t Harry Thaw's flight for liberty was :ut short yesterday being arrested in anada and the authorities expect to leporz him as an "undesirable." We md hoped that he would have succeed- t .4 in getting out of the country and re- I naining out for the rest of his days. It was reported to us last Monday that t n earof cornugrowinginthe field of Mr. . W. Ridgell measured 14 inches in tircumference and 12 inches long-some orn, the party who gave us this infor nation says Mr. Ridgell has the finest. ora in the county that he has seen. - A shooting occured last Saturday iear Bloomville. Howard Hodge and dr. Charlie, Ridgeway became in rolved in a difficulty. Hodge struck ,dgeway, whereupon his son, Nettles Uidgeway. fired a pistol, hitting Hodge n the chin, inflicting a painful but not s serious wound. There are persons throwing dead an- E mals in Black River at the bridges, 0 rich is against the law, and the cou- b y supervisor will prosecute if he can v ecure the evidence. There is right c iow a large hog under one of the s ridges which is filling the air with an L mbearable stench. s Died- last Sunday night at Fonda, 0 Tew York State. John A. Quacken- y >usb, a former resident of Ciarendon, a ate of Summerville, S. C. The deceas- t d was the owner of a large mercantile r isiness and a fine plantation in the I ;antee section of this county which he c old about two years ago. i The mayor-elect in a recent election e t St. Matthews declines to accept be ause out of a total vote of 171 cast, 28 egroes voted. We presume these 28 S egro votes came from qualified voters, t ut he refuses to take the office under a he circumstances. We doubt if there - an be found a precedent for this gen- h leman's action. Rev. George Pierce Watson, of the cal Methodist church, is now deliv ring a series ot sermons on topics rawn from "The Sermon on the fount." A large congregation paid nost respectful attention to the first of be series last Sunday morning. . The beme for next Sunday morning is Five Gates to Heaven's Earthly C anquet House."E Let every merchant in this town and I nd the surrounding of the county use ~ is influence with the farmers, black I bd white, to plant a fe w acres of tobac- t o next year. The time to urge this im- I 4ortant matter is now, and keep it up 1 Ltti every farm within a radius of s wenty miles of Manning will have ome tobacco on it. Postmaster Antoine Deloria, Gaid- p ter, Mich., speaks for the guidance of C hose troubled with kidney and bladder rregularities, and says: "From my own :perience I can recommend Foley Kid-f tey Pills. My father was also cured of I :idney disease, and many neighbors rere cured by Foley Kidney Pills." Fori ale by all druggists every where. f Notwithstanding the fine r e por ts rm the several sections about the 'otton crons. there comes a discordant towe occasionally from some sectionsv aying that the stalks are not fruiting o well and that cotton has gone back ~onsiderably in the past three weeks. 3ut all the same Clarendon will maket big crop, and the beauty of it is there till be a plenty of corn. T h ere was begun at Pine Grove thurch, at Turbeville last M on d ay tight, a protracted meeting which is eing conducted by Rev. J. R. So ourner, assisted by Rev. F. H. Shuler, if Latta. The n2eeting will continue en days or more Some people went 1 ver from Manning last night to meet ,heir former nastor, Mr. Shr'er, who is Sfavorite with the people c.' Manning egardless of denomination. Mr. George W. Hammel, of Augusta, 3. has been spending several days in anning with the frie~nds of his boy ood. Mr. Hammel was born in Man ming and at an early age learned teleg -aphy, he has filled a number of imnpor ant positions in and out of this Suate, tnd he now holds a very important po ttion with the Western Union. His riends here were delighted to see him, ad rejoice at his success in life. Manning will handle more tobacco this season than ever before, and the! prospect is that next year the tobacco ac re a ge will be greatly increased.t Earmers throughout the county who have never ventured in the enterprise express themselves as favoring t h el raising of the weed, and if they do Manning will be in the cener of this money producing crop. Every merch ant doing a time business should use l his influence to have his customers try the experiment. Mr. ;,. '' 'n Dennis, of Turbeville,1 sold the . ,f his tobacco in Manning1 yesterday. M~r. Dennis planted s i x acres, and he kept a strict account of the income from these six acres. He realized $1.408.80, which is an average of nearly $235 per acre Is there any other kind of a crop a farmer can raise in this section that will realize him as much real money so early. Mr. Dennis was not in position to say what the cost of this crop was because he did not employ labor to inake it, having done the planting. cultivating and the cur ing himself. One of our subscribers called on us Monday in response to our plea to be re membered when selling tobacco. He said that we should not hesitate to dun a delinquent In person, as the monev due is honestly outrs, and that THE T~IES has certainly earned its due-s. Subscribers, it is not pleasant to be constantly urging those who owe us to pay what they owe, but demands are being made on us. we must pay printers, and we must live. We need money. Look at the date on the label of this issue and it will tell you when your subscription expired and then ligure how much you owe, then remember the small amount will be mreatly apprrciater. The colored farmers are to have a great rally at the colored graded school Friday. 22nd inst This will be an ed ucational institute aLd not one of themi should miss attending the sessions. The speakers will be President Wilkerson. of the State Colored Agricultural Co! lege: Dr. C. C. Goodwin, President of the Colored State Fair Association; and R. W. Westbury, General Superinten dent of the State Colored Agricultural Fair Association. These institutes are of great value to those interested in in telligent farming. and the colored farm er who neglects to lend his presence to an opportunitv of this nature is doing himself an injustice. So do not fail to 3ome to Manning on the 22nd. According to the reports from the iquor elections yesterday, seven coun- t Aies vote for the dispensary, three de- I %ea: zhe proposition Florence and i Jacper hold on to the dispevsatry. and 1 Bamberg. Barnwell, Calhoun, Dor hester and Orangeburo join them in I he wet column. Abbevilie, Lexington, Williamsburg and Sumter remain dry. 'he elections were al! close, except Ab yeville, where the vote was about two to l )ne against the establishment of t he dis 2ensary, but in Sumter the dries won by r mly 12 majority; Lexington by 5 major- I ty; Orangebur-g the wets won by 3 ma- t ority. Williamsburg, went dry by a t lose vote. The vote was generally light. a A Big Day in a Good Town. Clarendon county masons was rep esented at Kingstree's Big Day last S rhursday by delegates from Manning, t ;ummerton and Foreston-the occasion as the laying of the corner stone for he Kingstree Baptist church, a new )rick edifice now in the course of con truction, when completed it will be a me of the nicest places of worsbip in his part of the State. The attendance ,t the ceremonies was large, the ac Iresses of The Most Worshipful Past rand Master, Hon. J L. Michie, and Ion. Charles A. Smith were excellent, he former spoke on Masonry, and the atter spoke on the Mission of the Turch, paying a handsome tribute to he unity of spirit which brought about he accomlishment of the purpose to 0 rect the magnificent building. Metz's amous band from Charleston furnish d the music for the notable occasion. s ,d the local quartette did the sinning. 0 The audience was large. made up of r uple from the community and the urrounding country; all through the .cient ceremonies, the most wrapt at ention was given. It indeed was a reat masonic day. and the visitors a r e r e most delightfully entertained. he hospitality of the citizens of King tree was great, everybody seemed to s eel it a duty to make tbe stay of the isitors pleasant-they succeeded ad aitrably. The dinner was served on the utskirts of the town in a grove at the ome of Mr D. J. Epps. and by-the- I ray, the pine bark stew and the barbe. ue was prepared under Mr. Epps' per Dnal supervision; we would wager dol rs to doughnuts there is not a chef in e United States who can excell the te' and barbecue prepared for this 5 ccasion. Everything was in abundance, es, abundance is the word, and served s only a whole-hearted peonle can en ertain. The writer enjoyed every mo ient of his stay in the busthng town. le was deeply impressed with the spirit si f unity manifest on every hand: the mpression created was that everybody, r ven father, was working for the inter sts of Kingstree; there did not seem to e the dogin-the-manger-spirit so fre- t, uent in other communities, everybody Demed to be obsessed with the idea that ) make Kingstree grow selfishness and F tagonisms must be removed, all must nul together for the common good the andicapping of one is the crippling of be other, therefore. it is good busines a help each other and make all succeed. Kingstree has' made rapid strides rithin the past few years; it is an old awn, one among the oldest in the State, a days gone, its citizenship was content ir a keep what it had "for me and my y ife, and my son John and his wife, us ur and no more," with the result, the - t ommunity lay dormant for many, many a ears, but at last there came, a quick ning, t.he shell of selfishness w as tt roken, the scales removed from the t, es of those who had the town choked to a comnotose condition, a new spirit ~, ok hold of the people, they began to ok about them for possibilities, they o ifted the screws off from their holdings E o others could have a look in upon hem; new life was infused into an al ost lifeless being with the result. that v 11 realized the effcacy of unity of pur ese and action, this unity was not to be lI the hot air kind, but that it must be put into actual practice by the business h men of the community. The result has lly demonstrated the wisdom of those eaders who aroused a sleeping comn 2unity into activity. Kingstree today an object lesson for other towns to allow, it is a live wide awake proposi- J ion which is the aomiration of all who c 'isit the place, and especially those o rho knew it in its Rip Vanwinkle days. n Kingstree has several institutions d rbich attracts trade and furnishes ma- e erial to induce people to go there to a rork-it has no room for drones, but C he men and women with red blood in t heir veins find a hearty welcome and r neouragement to succeed, nothing that I re saw indicated any spirit oi antagon- - si; no little petty spirit to cripple, but F verybody holding up eat-h other with upport. and other means to succeed. Dhe County Record, the only newspi-. >er in Williamsburg county, is fShed C vith the livest kind of advertising, tvery business house, small and large r tas an advertisement in the paper-; the fl oard of Trade from its treasury, car- E -'es a full 1age advertisement in the I own's interests, every professional man\ eels as much interested in the up-build-\ g of Kingstree as the merchants, and1 ;o it is, the town is alive with willing vorkers. Has it paid the people of ingstree to spend their money for ad-\ ertisinn? Ask auy of the business men I o what they attribute their increase of I ,rade. and their population. Ask them 1 f their tobacco warehouses would have I ttracted the 3,000,000 pounds they ex- I )ect to handle this season. Ask them I would they be content to go back to the I yld time tightwad and short-sighted I nethods. Ask all classes whether orI ot their campaicois of advertisinz has creased the trade, and then, when( hese questions have been asked andJ nswered. verify th1em by a personal in-J restigation. If Ki-ngstrece has accomi-J >lished all of this while (other towns. etter situated. stand still, it should ! rouse business men to get together ith a determination to set the wh.!els l yf progress in motion. Greater things can only be accom- I ~omplished by united effort. No town I an prosper if the property in it is in ( 2ands that refuse to yild to pronress-( ~hose who have the town corked up ~houd do as was done in the pors ;ive towns, loosen up so it can change .nto active hands: put away piersonal ]itferenc-s, and every one strive to nify the community for the general velfare. If this course is pursued a. reat imnproveme-nt will be felt ina short time. M\anning is well situated for business, it is surrounded by the best ands in this part of the State. it bas a climate second to none. nealth perfect. good social environment, and splendid school facilities; with such fa iities and conditions. an asset many larger towns do not pos-;ess, there is no reason why this town should not be one. of the foremost in lower Carolina: it will be if the citizens will get together in the proper spirit. Sometimes the symptoms of kidney1 and bladder trouble are so plain no one can mistake them. Backache, weak and lume back with soreness over the kid neys. sharp pains. rheumatism. dull headache, and disturbed sleep. ar-e till indications of a trouble that Folev K.id ny Pills will relieve quickly anid ;ier manently.
