During the reunion at Charleston,
it is stated, that 2,000 gallons
of beer and other liquors was
seized. If reports are true there
was plenty of it there
Mr. S. W. Perry, magistrate for
Dorchester county has tendered
his resignation. He claims that
the office is an expense instead of a
profit. This is the first office
holder to our knowledge that has
got tired of his job and quit.

from nervousness ; some of the
papers say excessive smoking
caused it.?Chester Reporter.
It may he the smoke from the
Philipines instead.
Two small hoys who evidently
read of the treatment of Sam Hose,
attempted to hum a hov at the
stake in a hack street in Brooklyn,
N. Y. The shrieks of the victim
attracted the attention of a Miss
Jackson who rushed to the scene
in time to save tlie little fellow.
An application for a charter
has been made by the Southern
Chautauqua Association. The
corporators are from Charleston,
Columbia, Augusta, Columbus,
Greenville, Spartanburg, (.Memson,
Rock Hill, Due West. New
berry, Williamston, Camden,!
Sumter, Clinton, Anderson and
Edgefield. The capital stock will
be $25,000 in live thousand
shares. The object is to establish
ami maintain colleges, schools
and Lecture Halls and to forward
in every way Literary, Scientific,
Moral and Aesthetic culture. The
Ilso of Palmes, Charleston, S. C.,
has been selected for the Chautaugua
home.
Mr. A. B. Williams editor of
the Greenville News has this to
say in ji recent issue of this
pa per:
am on my way to New York
by easy stages and will repose in
that town awhile. I have some
work to do there and am also
willing to gratify some of my
kind contemporaries who have
displayed so much interest in my
personal affairs and so much
curiosity regarding my return
from New York a year ago and
the causes for it. Thev mav fie
interested and will possibly be
pleased to know that I am going
back to my old plaae on The
Times and could have done so
any time the last twelve months.
Their conviction that I had made
a failure there was so profound
and their sorrow was so acute
that I am happy to be able to
relieve their feelings.'1
Pneumonia, Ia grippe, coughs, cold*,
croup and whooping-cough readily
yield to One Minute Cough Cure. Use
this remedy in time and save a doctor
bill?or tlie undertaker's. Crawford

The Slave Pension Swindle.
Washington, May 17.?Register
Lyons says he is glad to see
the newspapers are exposing the
scheme to lleece ex slaves by the
promise of pensions. He says he
has received hundreds of letters
from colored people from all
parts of the South and Southwest
asking him what chance there is
for such a pension scheme going
through Congress. He has invariably
replied that there is net
the slightest possibility of such a
law passing Congress, and the
promoters of the scheme know
full well that the bill, which has
been regularly introduced each
session, is a bastard measure presented
"by request," because the
member introducing it declined to
be responsible for it. lie says he
has advised his people not to contribute
a cent to such a barefaced
swindle, and not to waste two
cents for a postage 6tamp to communicate
with the promoters of
the scheme. He knows of a
number of instances where col
ored people have been induced
to subscribe to the registration
position, and also tor the charter
privilege. In one little town in
Georgia over two hundred victims
were caught for twenty-five
cents each. Register Lyons says
thero ought to be some law
against such a transparent imposition
on the credulous colored
people of the country by design
ing men.?News and Courier.
Some of the results of neglected
dyspeptic conditions of the stomach
are cancer, consumption, heart disease'
and epilepsy, Kodol I>yspepsia Cure
prevents all this by effecting a quick
cure in all cases of dyspepsia. Crawford

The 8. A.L. Conn act ion.
From what can be ascertained
here the Seabord Air Line has al
ready begun the work of constructing
its line from Cheraw
and Camden. It is said that the
authorities have not yet been
able to determine what they will
do about the terminal and passenger
depot here. Several
schemes are being given the most
careful consideration, but nothing
has yet been agreed upon. The
j two principal plans for entering
the city are totally different in
all respects. It is proposed to
have the road cross the Congaree
below the present bridge ot tbe
Southern railway.
The system, it is stated, proposes
to give the people residing
along the line a chance at the
grading and excavating contracts.
?The State.
Before the discovery of One Minute
Cough Cure, ministers were greatly
disturbed hy coughing congregations.
No excuse for it now. Crawford Bros.
What are vou doing to improve
the road?
How is the road in front of
your house?
i Horses should have good roads.
' Motor vehicles must have.
We should never tiro speaking
a good word for the broad tire.
I An ounce of smooth road is
I worth a pound of whipping the
horse.
(rood roads and adequate
means of transportation and coin- I
munication are among the essentials
to full enjoyment of country
life.
