FROM LAKE Gin,

??? ?
MR. AND MRS.HUGGINS BEREAVED
-CIVIC LEAGUE AND TRL'CK*
ERS* ASSOCIATION FORMED.
Lake City, April 4:?The infant
twins of Mr and Mrs G C Huggins
died last week. The little boy
and girl lived only three or four
d?YR. In the identically same
manner this unfortunate couple
have lost seven children.
The walls of Mr Sauis's new hotel
are going up right along. One
portion of the building has been
carried two stories high and the
and the roof put on. The other
portion is now being pushed. Mr
Sauls says the entire structure will
be completed in about three
months.
Messrs Cottingham and Finnegan,
cashier and assistant, both being
shut in by measles, Mr B Wallace
Jones, Jr., has charge of the affairs
of the Fanners and Merchants
Bank for the time being.
"Judge" 0 S Baldwin went to
Kingstree Fridav on business. t
Mr Kenneth McCutchen is visiting
here from Latta. He is at Mr
J A Green's.
The ladies of the towm are getting
up a civic league for the improvement
of the physical appearance of
the streets, squares, etc. The
first mating was held last Monday
afternoon. The idea embodied in
the purpose of the league is being
received with enthusiastic
earnestness. When other towns
"get there," just look around and
lake City will; be found there, too.
There was quite an enjoyable
entertjiinment at the school au- j
ditorium Friday night for the bene-'
fit of the Lades' Civic League. The i
leading feature was a comedy en- J
titled "A Box of Monkeys." This |
play kept the audience roaring
from beginning to end. The proceeds
of the entertainment will be
devoted to improving the park at
n the-foot of Main street.
Constable L M Belk last Saturday
seized a package containing a
liquor branded "160 proof alcohol," j
and the printed receipe accompany-1
ing the stuff stated that the liquor
(said to measure one and a half
"gallons) would make twenty gallons
of good whiskey.
DrJD Whitehead, who moved
way from here to Augusta some
months ago, has decided that he
will undo his mistake, so far as he
can. Ee has returned. Needless to
say he is welcome. All who knew
him are glad to 9ee him here again
?and hope he will nevermore entertain
the idea of going away.
The census enumerators for this
section are: Lake City township,
Liie R Truluck; Sumter township,
W J Smiley; Lee township, W E
Cooke: Lakg township, S J SingletaE
S Oliver, Esq., who has opened
a law office in Florence, was
noted here one day last weeek.
The Lake City Truckers' Association
has resolved to see what
can be done towards securing more
reasonable freight and express
rates. The truck farmers have
grown tired of working for the
railroad and express companies and
have determined to ascertain
whether or not the profits may be
divided on a more equitable basis
than now obtains. It seems hard
to sell a basket of beans and give
the carrier more than h^lf the price
received for the stuff. The mem
bers of the association regard the
movement an important one and
they are going into the matter in
earnest and not as child's play. It
means that this section will either
become a great truck growing
center, or vegetable raising must
be earned on elsewhere. The high
rates and excessive requirements as
to refrigerator loads, have already
caused many acres of strawberries
to be ploughed up, and present conditions
give little encouragement to
vegetable growers. Now, however,
the critical moment has arrived and
either the farmers or the carriers
must give in. The carriers may
win, corporations are powerful and
\
*
they fight every effort to reduce
dividends, and fight hard. However,
if they win, the goose that
lays the golden eggs will probably
be killed in the winning. The association
has resolved to make a
straight fight anil a business fight,
open, square and legitimate.
Proceedings will he instituted
right away before xthe Interstate
Commerce Commission, and for that
purpose Messrs \Y L Pass and D M
Epps weift to Washington Monday
night. The first named will represent
the association before the
commission, and trio latter win lenn
all necessary assistance in preparing
the complaint and explaining
the rates, etc.
Mr Jo'itt J Brown of Florence, an
honorable and honored member of
the "Old Guard," was noted here
last week. Mr Brown belongs to
the two greatest'classes of men this
country ever produced?the "oldfield
school teachers" and the old
soldiers of the Confederacy.
W. L. B.
EVER HAVE IT?
If Tod Hare, the Statement of Tbis
Kinsstree Citizen Will Interest You.
Ever have a "low-down" pain in
,the back?
In the "small," right over the
hips?
That's the home of backache.
It's caused by sick kidneys.
That's why Doan's Kidney Pills
cure it.
Kingstree people endorse this.
Read a case of it:
Mrs M S Montgomery, Railroad
! Ave., Kingstren, S C., says: "I can
' ?- t^:J
recommend ix>an s iviuney rms
highly in return for the grea|t
benefit I have received from their
use. I had -a lameness across my
loins and such severe backaches
that I could not turn in bed. I
Mornings on arising, I was so lame
and sore that I could hardly dress
myself and it required considerable J
effort for me to get about. That
my kidneys were out of order was
shown by the unnatural appearance
of the secretions. Doan's Kidney
Pills, procured from Scott's drug
store,not oniv banished the backache
but restored my kidneys to a
normal condition."
For sale by all dealers. Price 50
cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo,
New York, sole agents for the United
States.
Remember the name?Doan's?
and take no other.
