COMMUNICATED Editor The Times: The colored ministers and leaders ia every pommunity in Clarendon county should leave no stone unturned in having negro men between the ages of 21 and 80 present themselves at the polls June 5 to register for the selective draft according to the proc lamation of the president and the law of the Congress. Our men should be made to feel the risk they run in evading the call. Our people are not all newspaper readers. Hundreds of us are unable to 'read, and others may feel that it is a light matter that can go unnoticed. It is a serious of fense to ignore the law in this mat ter. To insist the work it would be much help indeed if every colored preacher in our county churches would explain 'the matter from their pulpits next Sunday. Let it be known that in Clarendon county the negro men heard their country's call and answered like patriotic men. That in no township was the law violated in this all important matter. I. M. A. Myers. Clara Kimball Young considers the role'of Sonia Sokoloff, which she por trays in "The Badge of Shame," to be seen at The Pastime Theatre on next Friday night, the greatest part in her film career.

Belvin, of Walhalla Taken Into Custody for Fighting His Wife at Atlantic Coast Line Station Charges of Disorderly Conduct and Carrying Concealed Weapons Dock eted Against Him. Rev. R. T. Belvin, of Walhalla, a member of the upper South Carolina Conference, Methodist Episcopal Church, South, was arrested by. the city police at the Atlantic Coast Line station at 11 o'clock this morning, the charge against him being disorderly conduct (engaging in a fight with his wife) and carrying concealed weap ons, to-wit, a pistol of unlawful size. He was taken to the police station, his gun confiscated, and he was placed under bond for appearance for trial on June 7th. But this is not all of the story, nor the beginning of the row that culmi nated in a free fight at the station for the posession of their 2-year-old child, during which Mrs. Belvin was knocked down and rendered uncon scious for several minutes. While the fight was in progress the station agent telephoned for the police, but before they arrived the fight was ended by Mrs. Belvin being knocked down and Rev. Mr. Belvin started to board the train for Columbia that canie 'into the station just then. In the excitement occasioned by the un usuel spectacle of a man and a woman fighting, a crowd gathered and as some of them seemed to block the way to the train, Rev. Belvin drew from his pocket a pistol of large size andl business-like appearance and or dered the crowd to clear the road and the road was' promptly .cleared. But the police arrived on the scene just then and Rev. Belvin was taken into custodly. .But this is not all of the story. It seems that Rev, and Mrs. Belvin have had some dlifferences and could not' live together in peace andl amity, so Mrs. Belvin taking thei rtwo-year 01ld child left her husband's home at Walhalla and esime to stay with her sister who lives in the country near this city. This morning Rev. Belvin arrived at the home of his wife's sis ter. - He walked in and took the child in his arms, got into the automobile and came to this city. His wife fol lowed quickly and as soon as she reached tbown applied to Magistrate Moore for a warrant for Rev. Belvin'sj arrest for abduction of the childi andl carrying concealed weapons. The *arrant was issued and Rev. Belvin was arrestedI. lie gave bond andl was released,. Magstrate l(oore placing him ilso under bond to keep the peace.

Immediately thereafter the struggle for the possession of the child took place with the result stated above. After Rev. Belvin had made his bond in the police court he was re arrested by order of Magistrate Moore for violating the terms of the peace bond. He is still under arrest in the custody of -the sheriff. Mrs. Belvin has employed D. D. Moise to. represent her interests and to take action to regain possession of the child, which Rev. Belvin will not give up. Mr. Moise has gone to Man ning to appear before Judge Wilson in habeas corpus proceedings to secure possession of the child. Rev. Belvin has retained J. H. Clifton to repre sent him. The rather remarkable proceedings that have taken place to day bid fair to develop an interesting legal tangle.-Sumter Item. o Richness of scenic enviroument and a crescendo of startlingly dramatic episodes reaching a gigantic climax mark, "The Badge of Shame," the new picture of life under the lash of the Russian Secret Police, in which the Clara Kimball Yoang Service World Picture-will present Clara Kimball Young at The Pastime Thea tre on next Friday night.
