Some of the shade trees recently set ont are succumbing to the effects of the dry weather. Who wants to run for Congress, the State senate or the l/'gislature? Don’t all speak at once. There was a fine rain at Society Hill on Wednesday afternoon. It was very much needed. The crop reports from different sections of the county are generally good, but rain is very much needed in some places. Dr. J. C. Willcox showed us on Wednesday the first cotton bloom that we have seen this year. Mr. James Large brought in one on Thursday. The latest news from Mr. Stout is very unfavorable, aud his coudition is regarded as dangerous. Our whole community will join in earnest prayer for his recovery. Wc hope that the grand jury iu their uext report will pitch into those farmers who plow out into the public highways. The very last one of them ought to be fined for this inexcusable trespass. Amoug the graduates of the Winthrop College we find the name of Miss Margaret Mclver, of Flor ence comity. Her home is just within the Florence county line, but nearly all her family and friends are residents of Darlington. Lost.—On Monday night, between the Nachman building, on thesquafb and Cashna street and the Armory, pair of steel-framed spectacles in Breedei Granted Ball. Ex-Judges Hudson and Townsend, Col. Knox Livingidon and Mr. T. W. Boiieheiv, of the Bennettsville bar, were iu towu the first of the week. They cam* over to represent Mr. II. T. Breeden in his applica tion la-fore Judge Bennett for bail iu the case of the State against him for murder. The solicitor was assisted by Mr. T. I. Ungers, also of the Bennettsville bar. Messrs. T. L. Breeden, J. B. Green, C. D. John. J. F. Breeden, W. A. Moore and T. K. Adams, all of Bennettsyille, were also here iu connection with the case. The amount of bail was fixed at $5,000. To be Investigated. The grand jury are investigating the matter of the management of onr public schools, and will make £ special report in connection there with to the next court. They are also inquiring into the matter of the teachers being compelled to sell their pay certificates at a considerable dis count. We do not. know who, if any one, is to blame for this condi don of affairs, lint it. is a great hardship, especially for the teachers, that those who hold claims iigainst the county should lie compelled to sell them at less than llieii* faee value. It ought to he that these claims would be taken at their full f.ice value, and under a proper sys tem i>f tihaiii-e this would be the case. We hope the jury will make a full investigation. It Ought to be Broken lip. The Marion Star calls attention to the fact that a groat many fish are being caught in Little Fee Dee with seines and nets, and says that, unless the custom in hriiketi up the li.-hing in this line stream will he ruined. As it is well known this kind of fishing is contrary to law, aud ttie Star suggests that ihe violators ought to be prosecuted and calls on the different fishing clubs to look after the matter. Some of our citi zens resort to this stream for the purpose of fishing and they onght to unite with the Marion fishermen and take steps to abate the evil. Something in this direction should be done immediately. Church News. being leather case. The finder will be suitably reward by leaving them at The Herald office.

It is hoped that a large crowd will accompany the players. The Hook and Ladder Company were ont for practice on Wednesday afternoon and put their ladders up to the top of several stores and ascended them.

We have nothing hnt commenda tion for the report of the grand jnry, which we publish in another column, aud to say that it reflects the highest credit on the men who compose it. They have, in an entire ly nnpartisau and candid manner, discharged their duty us they con ceived it, and both the members of the jury and the report itself would be highly creditable to any county of My (Hate. After the reading of tbe report the Jury were warmly com mended by Jndge BeneL We would be very glad to hear from some of our farmers on the important subject of how best to improve and keep our public roads In repair. Not only this but we woulo like to have articles on any topic of interest to those who ar engaged in tilling the soil, us any thing that bos a tendency to improve theurm and make it jwoduce large crops, is of paramount importance. Those who have tried experiments iu the culture of new crops, especially if those experiments are successful, ought by all means to give the result of them for the benefit of their brvtlw farmers. The town came very near without any preaching last Sunday, the only service being at the Presby terian Church, the Baptist aud Methodist Churches both being closed. The service at the Presby terian Church was conducted by Ilev. 8. E. Bishop, as he was unable to preach at night the union service was called in. There was the usual lay service at the Episcopal Church on Sunday morning. Her. J. E. Carlisle will return in time to fill his pulpit oti Sunday morning. Hey. J. G.

The union service will be held at the Presbyterian Church. fourt Proceedings. Most of the coses were postponed until the October term of the court, anil only two were disposed of at. this term. The first was that of W. L. Best, indicted for murder. The jury brought in a verdict of acqnital. lie was defended by E. Keitb Dargan, Esq. The other case was that of Theo dore Hatn for house-breaking and grand larceny. The indictment as to the house - breaking was noil prossed. He plead guilty to the charge of grand larceny and was sentenced to serve ten months in the penitentiary. Report of the Grand Jury. State op South Carolina, \ County of Darlington. / To the lion. W.

C. iu this county about twenty-five years ago, and who afterwards re sided in Texas, is in jail iu Birming ham, Ala., for what is said to be the deliberate murder of a 17-yeur old boy. Bowman had had some trouble with the aged father of the boy and the latter was seeking him, Bowman, to ask an apology. Justus be en tered the saloon, where Bowman was drinking, he was shot in the neck and instantly killed. Bowman had to leave Sumter on account of some trouble, aud hU leaving was a very hasty one. He did not have a very good lepnlation in our sister town and no one who knows him will be surprised at his getting into trouble. He is fussy and quarrelsome but an arrant coward nevertheless. He has, for some lime, been the right hand man of the notorious Populist leader, Kolb, aud his getting into this trouble will have a serious effect on the Populist campaign. Has Very Little to Buy. In talking the other day with one of our farmers, he remarked that the hard times were not troubling him very specially as he had uotbiug to buy, iu the way of provisions, except a little sugar and coffee and that he could easily scare up enough money for that. Now we happen to know that this farmer makes good crops of cotton, but he does not depend on buying meat and com from the proceeds of this one crop. It would lie well for our improvident farmers to follow the example of this gentlemen aud to make a point of not buying anything iti the way of provisions, except sugar and coffee. Even tnolasse* can be made at home« and when properly boiled is equal to any that comes from New Orleans. It will take about 3,000 bales of cotton, at a very low stimate, Ur pay for the meat aud corn that has been brought into the county this year. Some have calculated that it may take 5,000 bales for this purpose. Skinner for aiding in altove State offices be required to file with esJapc of J. D. McLendon.
