A Thrtlllag Shipwreck.—Narrow
Escape of the Crew.
One day last week the beautifnl
fishing and pleasure boat, “ Norjim,”
the property of the Darlington Nav
igation and Fishing Company, of
which two of our popular citizens
are the principle stockholders, was
wrecked in the treacherous waters of
Black Creek, and the crew, consis
ting of Mr. L. M. Norment of this
place and Dr. Payne, of Aiken, had
a very narrow escape from a watery
graven The boat was canght in a
strong cross current and despite the
utmost efforts of those on board, very
rapidlp filled with water, and was
soon engulfed by the dark and swift
flowing current of this treacherous
stream, and both boat and cargo were
a total loss. Very fortunately the
boat was well provided with life pre
servers, and aided by these and the ex
ercise of great coolness the occupants
managed to get near enough to (he
shore to be pnlled through the bn ak-
ers by the aid of a portion of the
“Life Saving Crew,” who fortunately
happened to be near at hand; and
but for this there would have been
no one left to tell the tale.
We have not learned the amount
ofinaurance but hope it will be
enough to save the company from a
very heavy loss. The “Norjim” was
built according <o the most scieutiffic
principles, and was considered by the
owners to be a very staunch and sea
worthy boat: and had passed a very
rigid inspection.
Darlington Tobacco WareHeuse
Company.
We call attention to the notice,
which we print below, of the open
ing of the Tobacco Warehouse.
This is one of the most important
and promising entepriscs ever inau
gurated in onr town, and will be of
display of his stock, which he is now
Mpleaiaiung.
Mr. li M. Norment has resigned
his position as Express Agent, and
has accepted a position with the C.
S. & N. R. R. in Sumter. He was
very popular with all the patrons of of
fice, and will carry with him the good
wishes of a large number of friends.
Mr. 7. E. Norment sneoeeds him
M agent
We calfattontion to the fact that
the Omncil have passed an ordinance
prohibiting people from leaving their
horses and vehicles on the streets sur
rounding the square, or feeding them
within these limits. This does not
refer to horses that are temporarily
hitched in front of stores.
Very mnch to onr regret, Thi
Hkbald is late in making its arpear-
anee this week owing to the lack of
force In the office. This trouble will
he remedied in time for next issue.
We have been compelled to omit sev
eral articles of interest in conse
quence of onr reduced force.
In another column we give some
more facts in connection with the
war history of Gen. Weaver, the Third
Party candidate. No Southern man
who is true to his section and who
has a decent amount of self respect
will veto tor a man who is so utterly
devoid of every principle of tone
onr prohibition friends to
, which appears in an-
of Dr. Atkins a care-
, and they will be forced
thie poiitioB r ip regard
, fo mom in accordance
pie.
The Darlington Tobacco Ware
house will be open on and after Sep
tember 27. This warehouse is con-
ttrnotod under the most improved
plans and is first-clas i in all its ar
rangements.
What farmers want above all
things is a good home market. We
propose to make Darlington a first-
class market We propose to see to
it that farmera receive at all times
the full market price for their tobac
co. The house will be in charge of
men who know their business and
men who keep posted at all times on
prices, etc. Intelligent tobacco far
mers will remember one thing, and
this is, one good buyer who holds
orders from the best concerns in the
world is worth forty men who have
no such advantages. Darlington will
have inch who will be ready and wil
ling to bny your tobacco at the very
best market prices, men who will con
trol orders from the largest manu
facturers, dealers and exporters in
the world. We will keep a supplyof
hogsheads on hand and farmers who
are not satisfied can have their tobac
co packed and shipped to any mar
ket they prefer. This will be done
by experienced men. We will keep
a force of men who know their busi
ness, to class and tie your tobacco.
The service of G. E. Webb, of the
Orinoco Warehonse, Winston, N. C.,
the most celebrated tobocco auction
eer in the world has been secured to
sell on onr opening sale, Sept. 27,28,
29 and 30
Come and heai him and let him
talk over your tobacco. A number
of bnyera from a.distance will attend
our opening sale. Take advantage of
this opportunity and get all the to
bacco you can on the floor.

The Rev. Dr. Daniel Atkins, writ-
ing iu tlje Western North Carojjas
Methodist the two methods tlut
are proposed for effecting moral ffc-
forms, characterises the one method
as distinguished by its use of politi
cal organization, and the other by its
advocacy and propagation of priaci-
pies. Speaking of the second meth
od, he uses these just words:
The other method depends on the
power of troth and sentiment. It
works from within. It reconstructs
and reforms throat ward Hfobyre
moving the inner nature. It reforms
society by reforming the individuals
composing society. It expects pur*
representatives from ai pure eoustitab
ency. It parities the constiuenoy
from within. If there is organixtion
at all, it if merely a result, as the or
ganized plant is the result ef the
operation of the vital principle. It
works like leaven, without observa
tion, silently, quietly, often slowly,
and, to our impatience, often seenu
inefficient
We carefully avoid expressing an
opinion as to how govarameate
should act on great political and eco-
nomieal questions. For them parties
and armies may be necessary. Bnt
for Chriatidnpebple there ie bnt one
method, the latter. The New Tes
tament principle is a maximum of
leavening and a minimum of organi
zation. Jesus acted upon this prin
ciple, so did the apostles. It would
have been an easy matter for Jesns
to have formed a great party and to
have raised a powerful army. Sure
ly there were evils in bia day which
ceemed to have justified any sort of
means for their extermination.
These evils were backed by the part)
in power and strongly intrenched,
yet he persistently and positively for
bade any resort to arms or to political
method for the propagation of sobri
ety, chastity, Sabbath observance, or
any other virtue. Nor did he any
where give the slightest hint that tbr
order of conquest be established
should ever be changed or modified,
and whenever, in the course of hu
man events, this order has beeL
changed, unmitigated disaster bar
been the result
There are giant evils in our land to
day. They stalk abroad defiantly.
They intrench themselves strongly.
They obstruct the progress of tht
Church. They invade the sacred
precincts of the home. They are a
menace to society. Just as iu tht
days of our Lord, we grow impatient
in our zeal for righteousness. We
lose heart at the slow processes of
moral reform fron within! like
Peter, we draw our swords, we surren
der the oldfashioned sword of the
Spirit and call for the iron heel of
the law to crush the giant evil.
Jesus gently but steruly says to ns,
put up thy sword; they that take the
sword nius risk the consequence of
swords.

The Charleston News and Courier
of Monday contains this notice of Dr
Dargan’t farewell service:
Dr. & C. Dargan delivered his
farewell sermon to the congregation
of the Citadel Square Baptist church
last night, The great personal pop
ularity of the preacher, his well-
known ability as an eloquent pulpit
orator and the circumstances under
which the sermon was to"be delivered
Attracted to the cbnrch a large con
gregation in spite of a heavy rain
storm which set in before the hour
it which the services commenced.
Dr. Dargan selected his text from
the Book of Job, 14: 14: “If a man
lie shall he live again ?” His sub
ject w;is the resurrection of the body,
i doctrine which he said was not and
never bad been taught elsewhere than
in the Holy Scripture, The sermon
was a most eloquent one and was de
livered with Dr. Dargan's accus
tomed earnestness, and it was listen
ed to with the profoundest attention
by the cougregation.
By way of farewell to his flock the
pastor said but a few words. After
the eloquent closing sentence of his
sermon he paused for a few moments
and thed said: „Mav we meet again
to part no more amid, the glories" of
that resurrection day. God bless
you. Amen.”
Dr. Dargau was elected a profes
sor in the Baptist Theological Sem
inary, at Louisville ky., and his ac
ceptance of the poeition neceeitated
his resignation of a pastoiate, where
he bad met with a great deal of aup-
cesa. He it one Of the foregpoet men
in his church, and is probably the
youngest professor that the Seminar}'
has ever had. As is well known he
is a native of Darlington and his
many relative# and friends here are
very much gratified with his success
as a minister and theologian.
