p ■ MU £ ffltnmiitHii — -- .iV-w.H ... i DARLINOTOS, 8. 0. M » " . ^ J Wednesday, Nov. 9, 1892 i i Miss Carrie Godfrey of Chtraw, is visiting Mrs. Michie. Look out for the McCabe and Young Minstrels tomorrow night. They are highly spoken of by the press. In our next issue we will give detailed description of the funeral servioes of the Thir4 Party, in this State, in which Col. Dargan and Mr. Bowden will appear as chief mourn ers. The residence on Mr. C. 8. McCul lough’s place, just over the creek, was burued down at two o’clock on Friday moruing. The origin of the fire is unknown. The insurance was 1200 dollars. -A £ Vity We sincerely trust that Thanks giving Day will be universally ob served. We have every reason to be thankful for the many blessings that ween joy, and ought to show our grati tude by observing the Day. Onr enterprising friends, McduT- lough & Blackwell, have bought a nice new omnibus, and have discard ed the old one. The same horses are used, and they hope to last as long as the new vehicle. The C. 8. & N. R. B. will sell round trip tickets to Columbia on ac count State fair at Columbia Nov. 13th, to 18th, inclusive with final limit of tickets Nov. 21st, on basis of about one cent per mile for total distance traveled. . Rev. J. A. Brunson, who has just returned from a three years so-journ in Japan, where be was a missionary, preached in the Baptist Church on Sunday night. He will not return to Japan but take charge of some church in this State. We direct astention to the adver tisement of the Receiver of the Champion Canning Company, in which is offered for sale tie proper ty of this corporation. This is an excellent opportunity for some man, who understands the business, to se cure an outfit at a reasonable price. As we insisted in Thb Herald that the Primary was binding, we, despite the fact that there was no opposition, voted for the whole State ticket, and of course the National ticket also. If Mr. McLaurin don’t have the opportunity to open his shooting gvllery in Washington >t wont be our fault We very much regret that The Herald will appear just after the day of the General Election, as this prevents our giving full returns of the election; but as it will probably be Thursday or Friday before we can be certain about the National elec tion, we have thought it best not to defer issuing the Paper. Weaver got twelve votes at this pre cinct, and if there are any out of the twelve who did not vote at the Pri mary, we would be glad to have their names, in order that we may omit them from the charge of violating their obligations. Not a single one of the men who were guilty of this should ever, under any circumstances, be allowed to vote at a Democratic Primary again. For sometime past we have been receiving, *Our Dumb Animals,” a periodical devoted to inculcating the spirit of kindness to the brute crea tion. We wish that- its circulation was universal, as it is doing a great work in teaching kindness to animals. It is the organ of the Massachusetts Society for the prevention of cruelty to animals, and the editor devotes his whole time to this humane work. Whereever possible the society secures the punishment of any person who illtreats any of the domestic animals. Mr. J. W. Hammono, the editor of the Florence Messenger has just re turned from the Keeley Institute, and has published an open and man ly statement of his experience, and says that be feels better than he has in fifteen years. We are sorry that we cannot publish bis article, for lack of space, as we have not, for a long time, read My thing that appeal ed so much to our sympathy or has so filled ns with admiration. The man who has the courage and candor to write such a confession has with in himself some of the highest and noblest attributes of true manhood. Mr. Hammond will have the kindest wishes of everyone, Md all will join in the hope that his future life may be a happy and prosperous one. Selllaf tut at Cost. Owing to short crops and hard times generally we have decided to ' sell out strictly on cash our entire stock of Buggies, Wagons, Road carts and Harness. N. L.

This is great news for the whole country an.l es pecially for our section. If the Dem ocratic leaders will wisely use their power, it will be the death blow of the Republican Party and its in numerable train of evils. It means not only a staggering blow to the Republicans, but is the death knell of the Third Party and its idiotic claims. The heart of every good citi- sen in the country ought to be filled with sentiments of the profoundest gratitude. In the State elections the vote was very light, and not a grtat deal of interest was manifested.

Tho Court Froceedlugs. The Court Sessions when The Herald went to press last week was engaged in the trial of the famous Cox case, this case consumed the balance of the week. The defendant was requested by Messrs. E. 0. Woods, C. 8. Nettles, Cor was charged with dispoing of property under mort gage—getting property under pre tences; of cheating defrauding swind : ling. The jury retired to consider their verdict on Saturday night, after being out about one hour they brought in a verdict of guilty on all three acounts. The Judge then dis charged all the jurors until Wednes day of next week on account of the election on the Tuesday following on Monday morning. A motion for a new trial was made in the Cox case. The Judge set aside; granted a new trial on two counts of the indictment The Court of Sessions will be resum ed on Wednesday morning. latUaunarjiiyK^y home from Australia, us the Steamer Zelandia touched at Hhoolnlu for coal, it was dec ded Uy Mt-wr* McCabe and Young toiriveoneperformanceRt the Royal Hawaii Theatre befoftT the majesty, King Kalalun, the time be ing ample as the law of that coun try requires a steamer to lay at wharf twenty-four hours after day light So soon as it was decided to give the above performance every thing was gotten in readiness to trans port from the steamer t( the theatre. The customary street parade was given by the company, as they were passing up Newana street quite perfo’-mance took place which the boys of the company will always re member. It appears that Mr. Mc Cabe bears a close resemblance to Prince William the king’s eldest son, who had left the Island some two years previous, very suddenly on ac count of his father (the king) not al lowing him the privilege of marry ing the girl of his choice. So when Mr. McCabe made his appearance in the parade he was immediately sur rounded by the ladies of the island and crowned with wreaths of the choicest and rarest flowers of the Hawaian Island. It was impossible for Mr. McCabe to convince them that he was not the long lost prince,j for the more he argued the worse the situation became, until Mr. Roy, their advance agent, who had lived on the island for three years and had acquired their language, came to his rescue, When he explained to the excited people that he was none less than Mr. Dan McCabe, proprietor and manager of McCabe & Young’s famous operatic ‘minstrels, their chagiu could be better imagined then described. It is needless to say that the house was packed that afternoon from top to bottom, and no one seemed to enjoy the performance bet ter than the old king himself who laughed and applauded at every act After the performance Mr. McCabe was invited by the king to dine with him as he was hero of the day. After spending about two hours with his majesty he bade him adieu, promising to take back with him to America the fond recollections of being taken fora Hawaian prince.—San Fraricisco Chronicale, August 20,1889. w.

There is very strong reason to sup pose that some malacious person •owed turnip seed on the ground, around the Court House, that had been planted in grass, and that the intention was to choke out and kill the tender grass. If this be true, we are sure that we express the senti ment of the whole community in de nouncing the person, whoever he was, that was guilty of it. An act of this character is contemptible in the highest degree, and could only be committed by one with a very mean and perverted nature; and by one who would only lack the courage, if his animosity was aroused, to oommit a very serious crime. The act was ut terly inexcusable, and the perpetra tor, if the guilt could be proven on Mm, should be punished to the ex tent of the civil law, and in addition to that the infinitely greater puuish- mefit that public opinion could visit upost him. Notes from Doves. Our quiet little town was the scene of a daring robbery committed upon the store of Mr. Charles De Lorme last Saturday night. An en trance was effected by breaking with an axe or hntchet a panel in the front door just large enough to ad mit one man at a time on his all- fours. From sounds heard during the night the deed was most proba bly committed about half past eleven o’clock. This adds to its audacity us at .that time the moon was shin ing bright, and anyone pa.:sing along could not have failed to have seen the marauding band. Upon dis covering the theft immediate action was taken to secure the perpetrators of it. As a result Deputy Rhodes carried two negroes Alfred Hart and Caesar Powe, to Darlington Monday morning for imprisonment Alfred Hart is a notorious scoundrel, there having been another warrant taken out for him Monday fer an offense committed sometime since. Others are thought to be implicated in the stealing, and, no doubt, in a few da\s the whole gang will have a chance to hold a reunion in Darlington jail. Mr. De Lorme finds it hard to estimate his loss exactly, but thinks that it amounts to $30 or $40.- Most of the articles stolen were drygoods. Miss Mamie Cogshell of this Coun ty has just taken charge of the free school situated a mile and a half from town. She boards with the family of Mr. Charles De Lorme. The school at this place is taught by Mr. J< A. Dick of Sumter coun- ty. Well nigh all the cotton has been gathered around here. ' less than a half a crop was made.
