V Mrs.tR, T, Robison and children, Cn/’are visiting friends in oo. s ticket to be nominated to day represents the intelligence and morality of the Democratic party of this county, we must exclaim, “Golly, how diit oat fish am swunk I” Up to date one hundred and sev- enty-ono bales of cotton have been shipped from this depot. Martin Hanley, the “Irish Consul,” is making improvements in his place of business preparatory to opening a restaurant this fall. Mr. George H. Edwards is again at his pos| in the Bonk of Darlington, after a summer trip. He is looking well. | .« Mora than fifty bales of cotton were seen on! onr streets on .Saturday.

The colored State Farmers’ Alii- j ancc met in Columbia last week. C. Brewer represented Darlington conn-; ty; and AV. V. Gray, of Darlington, was elected one of the trustees. Quite a number of young school girls left by the night train on Alon- day to resume their studies in Alon- roe, N. C. The depot presented quite a lively appearance. AVork on the water works has been suspended for a few days, awaiting the arrival of some of the machinery. AA'ork will soon be resumed and pushed to completion, when the town will be supplied with an abundance of pure water. The contracts for the heavy iron work on the Charleston, Sumter and Northern Railroad have been award ed as follows: For bridging the Pee Dee, to Phoenix Iron Company, of Pittsburg, Pa.; fortrestling the Pee Dee swamp, to AVilliams & Truly, of AA’est Virginia. Rev. John O. AVillson, Presiding Elder, will preach at the Methodist church in Darlington on Sunday morning and also at night. Mr. AVillson, who once was in charge here, has many friends in Darlington who love him both as a man and as a minister. E. Al. Brayton, chairman of the executive committee, has issued a call for a State eon vent ion of the Repub lican party to meet at ’Columbia, S. C., on AVednesday, the 17th day of September next, at 12 M., to elect an executive committee for the State, and “to transact such other business as may be deemed advisable.” Dar lington is entitled to three votes in the convention. On Thursday Lem Scott who had come into the Sheriff’s office to testi fy for a friend of his who was in trouble, was at once recognized by SlwriflyColq as a fugitive from Flor ence ccgtmfc}’. He jumped out of the window and escaped, in spite of a few shots fired over his head by the officers. On Saturday another negro by the name of Jack Eady tried the same experiment, but he was caught before he got out of the window. Mr. C. A. Seabrook, of. Darlington, was in Columbia yesterday making arrangements preparatory to opening a high school for boys in this city. Mr. Seabrook has taught school for many years and tho reputation he has so well earntfd in Darlington as a ‘ I If the action of the County Con vention in electing delegates to the September and Congressional Con ventions was illegal as decided by Irby, then the choosing .of a new Ex ecutive Committee and adopting a new Constitution by the August Convention was null and void. AVilliam Terry, a white mechanic from AVilmington, had his hand bad ly crushed in the wheel of the water works on Thursday. This is the first accident which has occurred to any workman in the employment of AV. F. Carter, who has had a good deal of such work to do hero. Char’i t Kelley, a negro of tho Stokes Bridge section, was struck and instantly killed by lightning last Friday. He was the only person in the room who was hurt. He had his baby in his arms at the time, hut strange to say the child was not in jured. The same stroke of lightning killed the largest hog in a pen near by without injuring any others. AA’e commend the utterances of the Darlington News in its issue of August 21st to the thoughtful con sideration of every citizen who has the good of the State at heart. Con demning as it does all that is contra ry to the clearly defined law of the Democratic party its labors are di rected towards a peaceful solution of our difficulties. The Exercises of Aliss Corinne Player’s school will be resumed on Monday, September 22, at her school house. Aliss Playeris too well known in Darlington to need any commen dation from us. The high stand taken by her scholars at hoarding schools is sufficient proof of the thorough training which she gives. The congregation of Jhe Baptist church, becoming imbued with the spirit of enterprise and improvement perme iting our city have determined to make extensive improvements to their church. The choir gallery will be remodeled,' and the stairs changed so as to land near the front door, which will give more room in the vestibule and in the gallery. The vestibule ceiling will be raised; the walls and ceilings will be repainted, new flues will he put in, and other improvements made, whieh-will add much to the beauty and comfort of the church. The carpenter work and plastering will be done by Air. Win. F. Carter, and the painting by Prof. Bowles. The work will be fin ished in three weeks, and the well known reputation of the contractors is a guarantee that it will be well done. Airs. Catherine AVindham, of the Philadelphia section, died sometime ago of pneumonia. For some reason tho people of the section suspected foul play, and the coronor was sum moned to hold a post mortem exami nation which he did. Dr. AV. J. Garner, the county physician, failed to find poison and gave as his opinion that the condition of the lungs was such us to produce death from pneu monia. Agreeing with the attending physician, the jury of inquest gave a verdict in accordance with theahove, but it is thought that the matter will not stop here. A Good Man Gone. Another good and useful man has fallen. A gloom was cast over this community on Thursday by a tele gram announcing the death of Air. L. L. AIcG ee, which sad event oc curred at Greenwood, where he went to visit his wife at her former home. Air. AlcGee had been in Darlington only a few months, but during that brief period had already taken a stand in Gie front rank of our enter prising business men. He was pleas ant and affable, and made friends of all with whom he came in contact. He will be missed by our people, and they all unite in heartfelt sympathy for gi-icf-stricken relatives. May He who doeth all things well heal the broken hearts. The remains were interred in the family burying ground at Belton on Friday last. Hartsvillc Happenings. The general health of our commu nity is very good at present. Miss Janie Kilgore, of Florence, is visiting friends and relatives at this place, and as she is a very agreeable lady we wish her a pleasant visit. t Mr. E. AV. Sutton, a photographer foi,..:r!y of Darlington, has located in our midst and desires the patron age of the surrounding country. Give him a call. Messrs. J. L. Coker & Co. contem plate moving into their handsome new store this week. AVe say confi dentially that their store cannot be e .celled anywhere in the county. Dr. McFarland, a leading physi cian of tliis place, who happened to the. misfortune of losing his horse stables and barn by fire recently, will commence to rebuild the same at an early date. A protracted meeting convened at Damascus church on Sunday last and will probably continue for about one week. Air. C. J. AVoodj’iiff, a partner in the firm of J. L. Coker & Co., re- reoce. at an early day.—Columbia Register. On Alonday night as the 8:35 train was leaving the depot a tramp tried to steal a ride. He missed his hold and was thrown. His leg and foot were badly crashed. He was brought into town on a wagon and his wounds were dressed by Dr. AV. J. Garner. His partner succeeded in going on the train. Unclaimed Letters In the 1*.

Fate has gone to Charles ton this week on a business trip. AVe are having beautiful weather for picking cotton. A few stray bales arc coming in. Aliases Effie and Alary DuBose, two of Camden's fairest belles, are visiting friends and relative here. Air. Alexander, of Charleston, agent for the K. of P. History, has been at Cypress in the interest of Ids book. He spent Sunday with us. The colored brass band of Stokes Bridge passed through this place on last Saturday morning and treated us to some good music. There was a moonlight picnic last Nonday night at Airs. Eliza DuBose’s. A large crowd of beautiful young ladies attended, and the affair was a pleasant one. Every one present seemed to enjoy themselves. Air. II. Al. DuBose, a highly re spected citizen of this place, died on AA’ednesday morning about 2 o’clock. Ills remains were interred at Cypress church. He leaves a wife and two small children to mourn his loss. The sympathy of the entire community goes out for the bereaved family. Your correspondei.t took a trip through Sumter and Clarendon counties last week, and the most striking thing he saw was the rapid rate that the Sumter and Northern Railroad was grading and building their road. They say that they will have it completed and cars running through to •Darlington by the last of September. I also learned that work would be commenced at once on the Carolina Central, that is tfi pass this place, and that this road would be built very soon. The Democratic club of Cypres, met at t his place last Saturday morn, ing to elect delegates to the county convention, which meets this week. The Tillmanites had everything their own way. The Anti-Tillmanites just sat and looked on as if they were as tonished at the way the Tillmanites do things. A few of the leading ones go into a caucus, lay out their plans and prepare their ticket; and when the club is called to order one of their smartest chaps leaps to his feet and nominates their crowd and they all stick to them. Palmetto Points. Crops are looking very well. Gen. AV. E. James has gone to Co lumbia. The farmers are about done pulling fodder and have made a start to pick cotton. Tobacco curing will soon be over, and won’t sleepy eyes rejoice; al though it has been quite a success in this neighborhood. Airs, and Aliss Cooper came up to Palmetto From Florence to visit the Depot Agent, Air. R. B. Cooper, last Friday. Alisses Ann Alclver and Bettie James spent a while with Aliss Fan nie Edwards this week. The Palmetto Democratic club met August 23rd and elected Messrs. AV. E. James, A. S. Alclver and R. L. Bass as delegates to the county con vention. Rev. Thos. 11. Edwards has gone to Glenn Springs to recuperate from a long spell of fever. He is much improved. Air. Simpson Dean was in the city last Saturday. His mission was to buy tobacco, and he understands his business. AVe were glad to see him. Air. J. B. Edwards left Alonday for Society Hill and Benuettsville to visit friends. The politicians around Palmetto are a little more quiet now than (hey have been. The Anti-Tillman birds are not quite so plentiful now. The pleasure seekers, Mrs. AV. E. James, Alisses Emmie James, Aleta AVilliamson, Hattie Ervin, Afessrs. B. F. AVilliamson and R. E. James, a id Muster Kenneth Janus, have re- t irned from Pawley’s Island where they have been spending some time. There have been several cases of fever in this neighborhood for the past two weeks, but the patients are all on the “mend” now. Air. K. Al. Bransford, from Oxford, N. C., went through the city recently The C., S. & N. Railroad. [Charleston News and Courier.] Alessrs. Pringle & Co., contractors for the northern extension of the Charleston, Sumter and Northern Railroad now have over four hun dred hands employed on that line. They got one hundred convicts from the penitentiary last week and about forty hands from Eutawville. The work is being advanced rapidly and the whole line will be in operation a very short time after the date set for its completion in the contract. It is being constructed through a section of agricultural country, a richer one than which South Carolina docs not boast. Benuettsville and a number of other towns in that section of the State arc now almost entirely cut off from any other section of South Car olina, and when this line is comple ted and put in operation it will flour ish “like a green bay tree in the sum mer time.” The people of Sumter and Dar lington are very enthusiastic over the prospect that this road opens up. Sumter expects to, and no doubt will, reap great benefits in the way of trade, and Darlington will not only enjoy a like opportunity, but will be given a much more direct line to Charleston, where her cotton and all her products should naturally come. Most of the towns through which the line' is being constructed have al ready given, or will give, free of cost, land enough for depots, yards, etc. Capt. AV. R. Dclgar, formerly of Charleston, but for a number of years past auditor of Sumter county, has resigned that office to accept the po sition of soliciting agent of the Charleston, Sumter and Northern Railroad, in connection with that of the South Carolina Railway. Capt, Delgar is known in this city as well as in his present home as a man of rare business capacity and tact, and the business of the Charleston, Sum ter ami Northern will boom under Ids supervision, llis office will be located at Sumter. The Pond Bluff extension of the Charleston, Sumter and Northern Railroad, which was opened a short time since, is reported to be doing a tine business in all departments. When a delegation from Bennctts- ville and Darlington, early in the present year, sought to interest the business men of Charleston in the extension of the Charhst m, Sumter and Northern Railroad to the former town, one of the chief objections urged against it was that the road might get into the hands of some syndicate that was unfriendly to this city. So far from this being the case, it now seems that the Charles ton, Sumter and Northern Railroad bids fair to become a great factor in a syndicate which will, if properly organized, do much for Charleston. Mr. John S. Silva, president of this road, has recently secured control of the Decatur, Chesapeake and New Orleans Railroad, lie will soon be elected president of the company and will take active charge and push the road to completion. This line is projected from Decatur, Ala., to Gal latin, Tonn., a distance of 140 miles. Thirty-four miles of it, between Fayetteville and Bonneville, Tenn., have already been constructed. If certain connections arc made it is possible that this road will give Charleston another route to the Northwest, as well as to link her closely to the great- iron region of Alabama. If Air. Silva pushes this road with as much dispatchas he has the Charleston, Sumter and Northern it will be but a short time before it will be in operation. In Mentor him. A cloud of gloom was cast over our community Thursday afternoon, when the wires brought the news that Air. L. L. AlcGee was no more. A few months ago, he came into our community a stranger and passed out a friend. A man of sterling worth, he would have added weight to any community. To those who loved him so dearly, a stricken com munity extend their heartfelt sym pathy. “Gathering home, gathering home, Fording the river, one by one ; Gathering home, gathering home, Yes, one by one.” * * * Hied, On Friday, August 22nd, 1890, at her home near Concord, N.
