The expulsion of the missionar ies has been begun in 1 urkey, the first tobeexpelledbeingaMr. Knapp. Tt is thought that others will soon follow. Bicycles have been declared bag gage by the New York Legislature, and hereafter the railroads of that State will have to transport them as such. Ohio is to follow New Y'ork State in its mode of executing criminals. Beginning July 1st they will be elec trocuted, a bill to that effect having been passed. Ex-Governor Holt, of North Car olina, died on Saturday. He was the largest cotton manufacturers in North Carolina and also one of its wealthiest citizens. The Illinois Prohibitionists met in convention last week, and nominated a full State ticket. Among the offi cers were three women as trustees of the State University. The boiler of a portable saw mill, owned by Eredrich Graves, of Miamis- ville, Ohio...exploded. Two men were killed and three injured, one fatally and the other seriously. One million two hundred and eigh ty-six thousand eight hundred and sixty-three persons visited tlie Atlanta Exposition. And yet the enterprise lacked $30,000 of paying expenses. The Hon.

Five desperate men attempted hold up the West bound express The Baltimore & Ohio at Bremen, Ind., last week, but police went the resc'.e, and after a de.perate battle three of the robbers were wounded and captured. The Haytin legation at New York has just received a cablegram an nouncing the election of Gen. Tieres- ias Bimonsam, Ministier of War under Hippolyte, as President of Hayti, and that the country continues per fectly quiet. The President has further amended the civil service rules by placing under the classified service the assist ant attorneys and law clerks of the Department of the Interior.

Represantatiye Dingley, chairman of the committee on ways and means, stated that from present appearances Congress could adjourn by the 15th of May. He was not prepared to say that an adjournment would be reach ed at that early date owing to the possible contingencies, but he saw no reason why adjounnent should be delayed after June 1st. A portable crematory for mi itary purposes has been invented by a Polish engineer. It has the appear ance of the army baking oven, but is muclHdgher and heavier, and is drawn by eight horses It is intended for the bodies of soldiers killed in battle, so as to advoid the danger of epidemics from the burial of a great numbers of men. Each German army corps, it is said, will be equip{>ed with one. Not content to let the Charles ton Sun fawn over Judge Ben- et, the News and Courier must needs do a little gushing on its own account, and compliment Judge Benet because he man aged to conduct himself in an ordinarily able manner while holding court in Charleston. If Judge Benet had done anything especially worthy of favorable comment, i twould be all right to puff him a little, possibly, but when his decisions in the dis pensary cases were especially infamous, a newspaper like the News and Courier is going al most too far out of its way when it attempts to plaster on compli ments altogether uncalled for. However, theNews and Courier never seems to tire of bootlick ing those who are continually kicking it about. LOCALS. (Continued from first page.) TOBACCO GROWERS. ATTENTION. An Called for ANOTHER TOBACCO MARKET. Col. John A. Oockerill, the well- known newspaper correspondent,died at Cairo, Egypt, last Friday. Col. Cockerjll was at different times edkor of the Washington Post. Baltimore UazetU. St. Louis Post-Dispatch. New York World and the New York Morn ing Advertiser. He went to Japan a year ago as the special correspond ent of tha New York Htrald. The Governor has said that he would use the penitentiary method with the county chain gangs, giving them a rebate of one-twelfth of their sentence for good behavior. It is a good move, and will doubtle s work pood to those in charge of the gang as well as the prisoners. The Eagle and Phoenix Cotton Mills at Colmbus. Ga have shut down, throwing 1,700 employes out of work. The shut-down was the result of a strike by the 270 weavers The weav ers prevented others from taking their places.

Governor Morton derives a good deal of amusement from certain fea tures of his Presidential boom He recently received a letter, misspelled and almost illegible, from a man who said that he had always been a democrat, hut that he should like to see a President in the White House who was a good judge of horses and cattle, and that he would vote for Morton if the latter was nominated.

Stone, of Missouri, has ap pointed Mrs. Alexandet H. Kayser. "Captain General of Commonwealth It is explained that this unique ap pointment is the result of her partici pat ion in the interstate prize drill at the fair grounds last July. She was sponsor for the Kansas City Zouaves, and devoted herself enthusiastically to the service of the soldiers. Mr. and Mrs. Kayser met Gov. Stone on one of his recent visits to St. Ixmis. when Mrs. Kayser, in a bantering way asked him about her appointment. Gov. Stone replied that he had notforgotten her, and the commission, signed by the Governor, with the seal of the State upon it. has been received. THE "LILLY WHITE” CONVENTION. The Melton faction of the Re publican party held their con vention in Columbia on Tues day. C, 8 Nettles, Esq. was elected temporary chairman and Dr. 8araps. Pope permanent chairman. The former made a short speech in which he pictur ed the glories of the Republican party and spoke of the assemb ling of the Republican conven tion in Columbia as a happy day for South Carolina. Dr. Pope, in his address, after tak ing the chair, dealt some heavy blows to his former associates, the Tillmanites, which weie doubtless very much appreciat ed by his new found friends. The platform adopted by the convention is conservative, con sidered from a republican stand point, and worthy the approval of democrats and republicans alike who believe in honest gov ernment and fair elections. The following delegates were elected to the St. Louis conven tion: L. D. Melton, E. M. Bray- ton, Geo. W. Murray, S. E. Smith, R. M. Wallace, A. T. Jennings, T. L. Daniels and A. M. Dawson. The convention adjourned just after a memor ial to Congress was adopted asking that body to investigate and ascertain as to whether a Republican form of government is in force in this State. JOHN D. KENNEDY Gen. John D. Kennedy died at his home near Camden early last Tiiesday morning of appo- plexy. Gen. Kennedy was a gallant soldier in the war and was much beloved by all who knew him. He was appointed consul-general to Shanghai, Chi na, by President Cleveland dur ing the latter’s first administra tion, and filled the position with signal ability. Harrison, how ever, did not allow him to con tinue to hold the place, and Gen. Kennedy was forced to return to the United States. After re suming his law practice at Cam den,he met with success beyond his expectations, and his sudden death is a blow to Camden and the State, as well as to his r'anv< ily. He was about 56 years old at the time of his death and full of health and vigor. DO YOUR DUTY AND REGISTER. It is reported that some of our people are indifferent about registering as they do not care to vote again. All who reason thus make a mistake—the time may soon come when they may want a registration certificate more than anything else. No man can be compelled to vote and the possession of a regis tration ticket does not neces sary imply that the possessor will make use of it. Therefore, all patriotic citizens should go and register at once. The pres ent condition of things is not going to continue forever and it is absolutely necessary that the intelligent voters of the State register immediately. The outcome of the meeting of the Irby committee in Col umbia last week was somewhat of a drawn battle between Irby and Tillman. Resolutions were introduced in the interest of both champions and withdrawn and compromise resolutions substituted. Both sides claim ed the victory and the bolting question was left to the May convention. There will scarce ly be any necessity, however, for Ben Tillman to bolt at Chi cago, as the convention will probably endorse free silver. Not being able to bolt the Dem ocratic party and organize and lead a silver party, “Our Noble Leader” will be left somewhat out in the cold. Important Meeting April 21. The Tobacco Growers’ Associ- _ L ation will hold a meeting on The Warehous-i at Lamar to be Rebuilt,- t , ie 31st of this mon th, and, as Making the Fourth in Thi* County. ! it v/ jji be xer y important One, it The tobacco warehouse at La ! is hoped there will be a full at- mar is to be rebuilt, and as the tendance. It is to the interest of citizens of Hartsville have de- the town and county that an cided to build one at that place, approximate estimate of the the Lamar warehouse will make crop to be planted in this coun- the fourth in Darlington Coun ty. With four warehouses in the county for the sale of this year’s crop of tobacco, there is no reason why a single pound should be sent to foreign mar kets. It is an unquestionable fact that the local market paid as good prices for tobacco last year as any market in the south, and the fact that the sales of the two warehouses here amoun ted to something over two mil lion pounds hears out that state ment. With two warehouses here, one at H irtsville and one at Lamar, besides the markets of Florence, Sumter, Timmons ville and other places in the State, every pound of tobacco raised in South Carolina this year should be sold within her borders. The buyers on the South Carolina markets hold or ders from the largest tobacco manufacturers in the world, and can and will pay as much for the leaf as the buyers on the markets of North Carolina and Virginia. The tobacco men of this State have worked hard for the establishment of a good, sound tobacco market in '4outh Carolina, and now that we have it, let us retain it! ty this year be made, and the different members of the assoc iation can contribute greatly to this end by gathering together as much data as possible be tween now and the mooting. The more tobacco planted the better and more numerous will be the buyers on this market, and every tobacco planter in Darlington county should do what he can towards making Darlington the leading market in the State. Charleston is to have, about September 1, a direct line of steamers to Liverpool. The South Carolina and Georgia R. R. is now having plans prepar ed for the docks and terminus of the railroad on the Cooper River. Let us all rejoice at this good news. If Charleston’s business men will do their best and render all possibleassistancetotbis new enterprise, the old city will un doubtedly regain her commer cial supremacy. There is money enough there to make Charles ton a largb city, and if her peo ple will invest it in Charleston, the improvement in the business of the port will be truly won derful. The Laurens Advertiser of last week says: _ The Press and Banner sars, that it does not iret the Congressional Record since Wade Hampton went out of the Senate. And who does? The Congressional Record comes to The News jffice reg ularly, sent, I suppose, by kind ness of Congressman McLaurm. It cannot be said against Mc- Laurin that he does not accord the newspapers the courtesies to which they are entitled from their Congressman. While I was editor of the Cheraw Re porter, 1 never received a sin gle public document from Dr. Strait of the Fifth District. President Cleveland has ap pointed Gen.

A petition has been circulated and nutnerousiy signed by the citizens of Darlington request ing the Postal Telegraph Co. to extend their line to Darlington.

If the Pos tal could see their way clear to come to Darlington they would get a first rate business. Machine needles, oil or parts for anv machine at Blackwell Bros.’ Mail Business Men Want A Morning on the Sabbath. The business men of the town are very anxious for the post- office authorities of the govern ment to inake provision for a Sunday morning mail for Dar lington. The freight train does not run Sundays and people have to wait until Sunday night to get their mail. If the gov ernment would establish a “star route” from Florence to Dar lington to operate on Sundays only the citizens of Darlington would be greatly benelitted and appreciate the effort made to give better mail facilities. Since the above was put in type, Mr. Bright Williamson, President of the Board of Trade, has received the following let ter from the Second Assistant Postmaster General: “Again referring to your re quest for establishment of Sun day morning star service, one trip, between Florence and Dar lington, S. C., I have the honor to inform you that an advertise ment has been issued to day in viting proposals for carrying the mails on such route, from July 1, 1896, to June 30. 1900, and, if a reasonable bid be receiv ed, the service will be estab lished.” 500 cans of “Good Luck” bak ing powders given away last week.

If advertising doesn’t pay why is it that the most success ful merchants of every town, large and small, are the heav iest. Is it because they want to donate a part of their earn ings to the newspapers? Busi ness men are not generally built that way. There must be some other good reason for it. Annual Mseting.
