Slightly Mixed. Commenting on Senator Till* mat's speech of defense in the ' United States Senate the Sumter Herald observes: Senator Tillman for all his rough ways is a scholar, and he never quoted to better purpose than when he said of .President Roosevelt, quoted from the Faerie Queen: ' Here's sigh to those who love me, And a smile to those who hate me, Here's a heart for every fate." Our usually well informed contemporary seems to have mixed his poets as well as his Tillmans. The nearest approach we can recall to the three lines quoted is Bvrcn's "Farewell to Tom Moore," from which Col James II Tillman quoted in his recent letter to the EdgeSaid News announcing his />.\nfamnloful danurfti rA fnr ftftli. vvabvui^iukvvi uvj'ui miv, *v* foraia.

The St Matthews correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle savs: "The present Legislature will be asked to pass a bill authorizing a; vote to be taken to bond the county I and town for $50,000 with which to build a court house and jail.*'I / While the canvass for the new I countv was going on the country! people were assured that ?St Mat-. tnews would build the court house j and j*:', and that, if they -voted j for the new county, they would not have to pay a cent towards the erection of these necessary' buildings.

D. C. Chapter. What is promised to be the most interesting" play ever produced at the Thomas Opera ! house will be riven at an early " 1 date by local talent. The l)augh , tcrs of the Confederacy are anxk:ous to complete the fund so 'well under way for the erection ot the monument in Kingstree in memory of the Confederate dead. A talented company of players have been invited to assume the principal characters of a new military comedy drama Vailed "Daughter of the Confederacy". A> the title suggests,the i play is founded on incidents of ! the War between the States and j not only interprets the war from a Southern standpoint, but rather by undisputed fact and actual historical occurrences. From Vurtain up to curtain down the story ot the drama is intensely interesting with strong emotional scenes and beautiful stage situations written with ev! ery requirement of refinement and portraying the heart throbs i of the. Confederacy in all its many phases. Throughout the play the plantation negro comedy has been interpolated, giving to the characters of Old Black Joe and Aunt Dinah the funny characteristics of the old-fashioned darkey during the period 1861-65.There are no people in the world who have been so universally made the theme of story and song as the I people of Dixie land. The steady march of commercialism is fast driving romance away but the Southland will be slow to yield to the invader, for it is the soul of chivalry/the home of fair women and brave men, the place where the sun shines brightest, the moonlight the clearest,where the women speak softest, the men love strongest and tight quickest. It is this spirit that is woven into the drama, "Daugh-' ter of the Confederacy,'' creating an atmosphere of its own that clings until the fall of the last curtain. Mr W A Fisher, formerly^ of the Mason-Newcomb Company, j will personally direct the. Kingstree production for the Daughters of the Confederacy. Rehearsals are now in progress' at the opera house and the* cast promises to be letter perfect and present a professional performance. With the play many splendid features are to be, t added. A mixed quartette will render popular melodies of the South and be heard throughout! i the entire play. A grand rnili- J tary chorus of girls is to re-| view Southern States and great i' Confederate generals in a fancy Is drill and song numbers* Thep military chorus has been writ-J' ten as a tribute to I'resident* Jefferson Davis and General Lee and in a convincing manner, impress upon Southern children the grand vitures of the lead- ? ers of the Confederacy and a ' just cause. Thus will the memory of the Grays be carried into | future generations and their brave deeds forever immortalized. The names of the cast, quartette and children taking; part in the military chorus will j be announced later. Don't Get a Divorce.
