Race Trouble at Trio.
Last week the town of iViO
find vicinity seem to have beeh
threatened with a face fidt,
which happily, we udders taiid,
has been averted. We have not
been able to ascertain definitely
the cause of the trouble, but it
appears that ill-feeling* between
the races grew out of the summary
whipping of a negro for alleged
insolence to a white man.
Certain persons charged with
taking the law into their hands
were arrested, but the case was
compromised between the part*
ies involved and peace lias been
restored for the time being, at
least.

COLIC, CHOLERA
AND DIARRHOEA REMEDY.
"Allow me to giv9 you a few
words in praise of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,"
says Mr John Hamlett, of
Eagle Pass Texas. "I suffered one
week with bowel trouble and took
: all kinds of medicine without getting
any relief, when my friend, Mr
C Johnson a merchant here, advised
rae to take this remedy. After taking
onedose I f?lt greatly relieved
and when I had taken the third
dose was entirely cured. I thank
j you from the bottom of my heart
j for putting this great remedy in the

Persistent BurglarsThree
times in four nights last
week DrDC Scott's drug store
was entered by burglars, viz.,
Thursday, Saturday and Sunday
nights. Why the burglars
were so persistent in their repeated
depredations upon this
particular building?for to the
ordinary robber a drug store offers
nearly as little temptation
as a print shop?is not very
clear; yet despite the apparent
lack of incentive, the building
shows unmistakable signs of
thr-AA Kiircrlarinns entrances bv
two different windows, all of
which were effected, it appears,
with small difficulty and no unpleasant
incident to disturb the
even tenor of their way.
As the result of these visitations
there are missing from the
store about two dollars, taken
from the cash drawer, a Smith
& Wesson pistol and several
bottles of cologne. Other merchandise,
such as patent medicines,
calomel and porous plasters,
might have been taken
along for good measure, but not
in quantity sufficient to be
missed. But whatever might
have been the motive, it is a
fact worthy of serious consideration
that we have in our community
these bold and defiant
robbers who can commit three
burglaries almost in successive
nights and go their way unmolested
and without a clue to
their indentity. Is any build
ing in the town safe should they
take a fancy to posess themselves
of the contents? This is
a question worth considering, it
seems to us.

Kingstree's First Bale.
In conformity with his custom
of several years' standing- our
popular and progressive merchant,
W T Wilkins, offered a
premium of fifteen cents a pound
for the first bale of cotton of the
new crop brought to Kingstree i
this season. Last Friday Mr
Hugh McCutchen complied with
the conditions and brought in
from his farm near Indiantown
postoffce a bale weighing 635
pounds. Mr Wilkins was as
good as his word and exchanged
for the bale that now occupies
a nrnminpnt iincitinn in front of
his wholesale store the sum of
$95.25 in good U. S. currency.
On Saturday following, Mr T
J Hogan of Greelyville sent
in a bale to compete for the
prize, but owing to the delay in
getting the cotton ginned he
found that he was ju9t a day
too late.
Whose Faalt is This?
Editor County Record:
On last Saturday, August 20,
the mail from Rhems and Dock
that went up came back and then
had to lie over till Monday. The
mail from Rhems and the mail
from Kingstree meet at Indiantown
P. 0., and each driver
turns back, so the mail from
Kingstree went back there.
Now, Mr Editor, I think someVvtw/Jtt
cVirtiilri suffer for such con
IA/VIJ u>Mvr%?>%* ?
duct, as this is not the first time
this thing has happened and unless
some action is taken in the
matter it will happen again.

After Fifteen Years.
Mr W P Stack of Elloree visited
friends in Kingstree several '
days recently. Mr Stack, who is J
now a prominent merchant in
his adopted home, was reared in
this county and his return was
after an absence of fifteen years.
During that period he said the
town has grown so much as to
be wholly unrecognisable as the
Kingstree of his boyhood days.
There were only a few buildings
that seemed familiar and most
of the people he knew were
gone. Mr Stack appeared to be
much gratified at the enterprise
and progress that the old lethargy
he remembered had given
nlace to. and as an earnest of
I - - W
his intention to keep in touch
with the town he had the date
of expiration of his subscription
to The Record (whose weekly
visits he regards as a message
from his friends here) shoved up
to the fall of 1906.
