Richards, Evangelist of Pee Dee Presbytery, will preach at Center Point Church next Sabbath at 11 a. m. We republish the grand jury re port in order to call especial atten tion to the recommendations con tained therein. We are told that we are to be “spotted.” Well, there are some men whom no honest man cares to affiliate with politically or otherwise and so it is to be hoped that the “spotting” will continue. Talk about the Democracy’s uni ting. Give us something decent to unite on and then it will be consid ered. If A. C. Haskell is a “traitor to South Carolina,” many of the host people in the State stand in the “same boat” Corporal Hardee, of the State Pris on, came over last Friday for the prisoners that had been convicted at this term of court We are glad to state that J. A. White, the foreman of the Darling ton News, is able to sit up. Mr. White’s illness has been the subject of much regret to his friends who hope to see him back at his post at an early day. The delegates to the colored Bap tist Association at Society Hill re turned the first of this week. Miss Beckey West, of Laurinburg, N. C., has been visiting her sister, Mrs. D. W.

Brethren, let prayer be made that this occasion may be blessed in a largely increased efficiency of all our Sunday School work. C. L. Fike, State Organizer for the South Caro lina State Sunday School Asso ciation. The Late Fair. It is with a feeling of deep regret that we have to confess that our re cent Fair was uot as good as it should There were some fine What Darlington Has. Two banks. Two dentists. Two hotels. One florist. Seven churches. One laundry. Two bakeries. Two photographers. Two livery stables.' Three drug stores. One ice house. Two hardware stores. Two wholesale groceries. One fruit dealer. One tin shop. One marble yard. One canning factory. One cotton mill. One ginery and oil mill. One opera house. Eight physicians. Four insurance offices. Six cotton buyers. Three fish dealers. One brick yard. Three shoe shops. Two restaurants. One real estate agent. Four barber shops. Twelve lawyers. One book store. Seven bar rooms. Six blacksmith shops. Three furniture dealers. Two weekly newspapers. One job printing office. Two harness shops. Four millinery shops. Three planing mills. Three jewelry stores. One pool and billiard room. Four carriage and buggy shops. Water works and artesian well. Nineteen general merchandise stores. Staudard Bred Horses. The following are the latest regu lations adopted by the American Trotting Association governing the registration of animals in Wallace’s American Trotting Register: 1st. Any stallion that has himself a record of two minutes and thirty seconds (2:30) or better provided any of his get has a record of 2:35 or bet ter, or provided his sire or dam is al ready a standard animal. 2nd. Any mare or gelding that has a record of 2:30 or better. 3rd. Any horse that is the sire of two animals with a record of 2:30 or better. 4th. Any horse that is the sire of one animal with a record of 2:30 or better, provided he has either of the following qualifications : (1) A record himself of 2:35 or better. (2) Is the sire of two other animals with a record of 2:35 or better. (3) Has a sire or dam that is already a standarb animal. 5th. Any mare that has produced an animal with a record of 2:30 or better. 6th. The progeny of a standard horse when out of a standard mare. 7th. The female progeny of a standard horse when out of a mare by a standard horse. 8th. The female progeny of a standard horse when out of a mare whose dam is a standard mare. 9th. Any mare that has a record of 2:35 or better and whose sire or dam is a standard animal, the exhibitions have been, admirably managed, and the comparative fail ure of the last Fair is in no wise at tributable to the officials of the com pany. Without exception they have labored with both zeal and intelli gence, and the many successful ex- hibitionslin the past are evidences of what can be accomplished under a great many difficulties. The whole trouble is that the people generally are not sustaining it as they ought, and it is very much to their discredit that this has to be said, but it is true, and it will be a reproach to allow the Fair to fail from this cause. These annual exhibitions have been productive of much good, and it would certainly be a step backward if they can ro longer be held on ac count of the apathy of our people. They are not only a great help in a material sense but in a social way also, enabling people to enlarge the circle of their acquaintance, and be ing instrumental in giving the op portunity for the meetings of friends who but for this occasion would rare ly meet. Sometime in the future we will have something more to say on the subject, and hope to do some thing in the way of renewing public interest in the Fair.
