Every well cultivated field had a heavy crop on it, though to our surprise the farmers were still complaining of tbe gloomy outlook. Cotton was not so good, but even it, where it had the advantage of careful cul? tivation, was far' better tban we bad hoped to possible. Dr. Stackey, the Messrs. Woodward and others on the road to Bishop ville can show what . good farming can achieve. . _ Rattlesnake Colonels. The season of 1886 has,been late in open rog, but ?ie- present offering is for a full crop. A inge snake was exhibited in town last Friday, killed by Abram Ruffin io Pocotaligo Swamp.

Another ratitesanke, some fbnr feet or more in length, and with seven rattles and a bot ton, was shown on the streets yesterday. It was killed jost below the depot ia the yard of a mos named Gary, by Mr. Shu 1er, employed in the R. R. depot. ? i ?-m-~* . - - Quarterly Conference.

That Pledge-A Kew Departure for the Democracy. Mr. EditorIn the "Regulations for Pri? mary Elections" put forth by thc authority of the Democratic Executive Committee of Sum? ter County, the XI Article reads thus, "Before being permitted to cast a vote, each person shall take in good faith the following pledge : I solemnly affirm that I am an enrolled mem? ber of this club, that I have not voted before at this election and that I will support the ticket nomioated at tbisPriniary election. A refusal to take this pledge, or any part of the sane, shall be a good aground of challenge and rejection." j3;r Does not that pledge bind each voter to Mipport tbe whole ticket at the general elec? tion no matter what may be the composition of that ticket ? If there is a nominee on the ticket who he believes is incomp?tent or unfit from any canse to fill the office sought, must not the humble voter "for the oath's sake''' still vote for that nominee? . Should be vote a "scratched ticket" will it not still be counted as a whole ticket by the Managers of election ? If these q';e>?ir*is must rrcive fffirms'iv*? ttoswcts, is there not involved in them a seri? ous infringement upon one's inalienable right of free suffrge-an infringement so serious as to prevent some Democrats in the County from voting at all ? It looks so. It is believed there is more thnn one man in Sumter County to-day who will not stultify himself by taking a bliud pledge. A VOTER. The Greeley ville Explosion. CAMDEN, S. C., Aug. 29, 1886. Mr. Editor: Being sent to Greeleyville, on some business Wednesday, the day after the terrible explosion of tbe boiler of Mr. S. C. Hogan's mi?, I somehow have been so im? pressed with the situation of this affair and that it might be interesting to the readers of your valuable paper to bav* a detailed account of same, I will try and give it to you in as short form as I can. Greeleyville is a small place on the Central R. R., io the sou th-western portion of Williamsburg Co. On the day of this terri? ble affair, Mr. S. C. Hogan was running his saw himself, and for amusement was trying to saw logs faster than his brother-in-iaw, Mr. Willie Boyle, could bring them in on the cars from the woods. About 10 o'clock, Tuesday 24th, Mr. Boyle, engineer of the lo? comotive, had just returned with a car load of logs. He stepped off his engine and Mr. Hogan met bim on tbe log bed,and tbey were in conversation when the explosion took place. It is thought that the water got below the crown sheet of the boiler, and Mr. Hutson, the lumber inspector, noticing that tact, at once turned on the inspirator which rushed cold water into an overheated boiler, gene ratiog steam fastet than it could be exhausted and hen re the explosion. When it took place j the larger part of the boiler with dome and safety valve, picked Mr. Hogan op on one end, cutting off one leg where he was stand? ing, and revolving dropped the other leg, bojlh arm3 and head as it passed along in tbe air. It struck the ground, cutting anew cross tie in two, and rising again hit a large pine, passicg through a shaiity where a white woman and three children, were living, com? pletely demolishing it. lt tore up the earth on'the other side for some distance. The dis? tance from the place of explosion to where this large piece of boiler is now resting is 125 yards. A piece of tbe boiler took Mr. Willie Boyles bead off. Mr. Smith*? and Mr. Hutsoo's bodies were terribly mangled with ragged edges of tbe boiler. Mr. Bradshaw was only a visitor to the Mill. He was seated on a log on tbe other side of the Mill near the R. R., and a piece of boiler took his bead off. Bob Boyd was under the mill shed-a colored boy was also killed. I found Mr. Willie Campbell, book-keeper, of Mr. Hogan's busi? ness very kind and attentive to me indeed, b;it seemed demoralized over the affair. Messrs. Varner & Taylor, merchants of Greeleyville with all others I met seem to have gloom depicted on their faces. I was kindly entertained while in Greeley? ville, by Mrs. and Mrs. Varner, and any one who will be so fortunate *-s to visit their home will find as kind hospitality as any where in the State. A gentleman informed me that Mrs. Hogan wonld soon be ?xe? up and thought the mill would be operating .13 before. WAL?JBR L. WJLS0N. -?^^^^- -- Questions for the Candidates. Mr. Editor: Various questions are being put to candidates offering for the different county offices, to ascertain their views, aad "where they stand," in relation to subjects interesting and important to the public. These question? inviting answers, look for? ward te purposes- and^resu-1ts, experimental, financial and remedial, which may or may not favorably affect the welfare of the people at large, and, except in one instance, only, nothing ?3 proposed, looking to the moral and social advancement of our people. To supply this omission, many /oters of this, as well as other counties, in our State, ac? anxious to know the sentiments and proposed course of action of those who seek public favor and election at this time, and especially those who aspire to the position of Legislators, upon the subject, more than all others,, so full of interest to the p?wents and'friend's of the youth of our County ?nd State,, and to the Christian, and'. the conservative portion of society generally, viz : the Prohibition of the Liquor Traffic. .We therefore request you will favor us by admitting this communication to your col? umns with these questions to the candidates now offering for election to our county offi? ces, at the ensuing election : Do you favor licensing the sale of intoxi? cating liquors in Sumter County, or do you favor its abolition. Do you favor the prora? tion of the manufacture and sale of intoxica? ting liquors as a beverage throughout these United States, or do jou favor the continu? ance of this gigantic evil which multiplies drunkards, paupers, criminals, misery, want, and degradation, for all who come under its influences. We want answers to thc above-we want to know how to vote for the best interests of ourselves and families, and our fellow citi? zens. SUMTER COUNTY. props, Prohibition, Entertainment. MANNTILLE, August 27, 1886. Mr. Editor : I have delayed writing for some time because of press of business, but it ' may be interesting to some of your readers for me to give a few dots from our neighborhood. Crops are much better than we anticipated when we were having such heavy rains. God has blessed us abundantly, af we will make good use of the blessings in living economically acd in giving back to him, but I fear that some who profess to be Christians even, will let some of it go into the coffers of him who deals out destruction and ruin to human souls. Oh I if the pro? fessing Christians would take a decided stand against strong drink, what a change there would be in a few years. I heard a promi? nent professor of religion say not long since that if it was put to vote he would vote against prohibition. What a responsibility some men are willing to take? We had the pleasure of having Mfss Fannie Pack with us recently. She gave a very in? teresting entertainment at Bethany Baptist Church, last Tuesday night, 24th instant. The entertainment was given io the interest of Forman Univer?ity, and consisted of read? ing, recitation and singing ;'ud was apprecia? tive to all. We hope that some impressions were made which will not soon be forgotten. Rev. D. C. Hardin announced at the conclusion that he was making ai effort to raise money enough to buy Miss Pack a new organ, as her old ooe was about worn out, and it is hoped that he will be successful, for the object is a very worthy one. I was present at the opening of the cam? paign in Bishopville and heard the different candidates express their views on the general topics of the day, and I think the result of the election will convince some of them that their views are not in accord with the masses of the people's views, especially in reference to the South Carolina College. ATER. ??B ? ? ? -H Corbett's Mill Items. MASKVILLE, S. C., Aug. 23, 1836. Mr. Editor: Last Tuesday week, lightning struck the bouse of Messrs. Reynolds and Ford who are keepiog bachelors' hall near here. It first struck a tree in the yard, then the door facing, and following a sleeper across the room, knocked two plank from the sued room. Mr. J. M. Colvin was writing near the door. It broke the chair in which he was sitting and knocked Colvin senseless. The lightning struck him on the left side, ran down hts leg and tore his shoe into pieces. It also struck Mr. Ford on the leg below the knee. Mr. Reynolds was on the bed and was unhurt. Ford and Coivin are all righi again but arenot anxious for another tussle with the lightning. We have a Pos-.. Office here now, the route running from Camden to Corbett's Mill and serving two offices-one at Antioch named "Antioch," and the one here named "Iola." As soon as the bonds are approved and a mail carrier appointed we will be all right. J. F. M. [For the Watchman and Southron.J Mt S.on Literary Celebration. Written by Request. The Second Annual Entertainment of the Mt. Zion Literary Association came off on Friday night, the 27th instant, at the sum I mer residence of Mrs. Wm. Cooper. Her j spacious parlors were filled with the elite of Mt. Zion, besides a number of invited guests from a distance.. A distinguished gentle? man agreed with me that fully two hundred persons were lhere. Mr. Geo. McCotchen the President of the Association, gave an interesting account of its organization, a little more than a year ago. Beginning with eight mern bers it has grown in favor until its membership is now sixty-three. Once a week during the Summer tbe club meets at the residence of some member, and an evening is pleasantly and profitably spent with readings, recita? tions and music, aod in social intercourse. He ended by extending in behalf of the club, a hearty welcome. The following programme will show the range of subjects : Chorus : "The Sleigh ride," by six gentlemen and six ladies, (Miss Floride Cooper at the organ,) was well ren? dered, and prepared the appreciative audi? ence for the treats to follow. Declamation : "The Polish Boy," by Mr. Harry Shaw, sbowed careful study, and ease rarely attained by one ont of public life. Instrumentalsolo: "Sonatina," by Miss Willie Cozby was enchantingly beautiful. The first Charade, "Antidote," was fault? lessly played; and admirably showed ibo effects of tbe imagination on the physical health, as well as mental condition. Miss Jeuoy Wilson's recital of "Curfew" j was superb, lt was in my opinion, the piece ' of the evening. "Birdies' Ball," a song with chorus, by ten lovely little girls, was bewitchingly pret? ty ; especially the chorus, through which they ! danced four figures. Declamation: "South Carolina" by Mr. I Hamilton Cooper was fairly well done. The second charade, "Madcap," was at:- | mirably placed, until near the close some of the preparations were deficient. In the first act Misses Marie Crane and Maggie L-tCoste, I and Messrs. R. M. Wilson, Chas. Plowden and Walter Green covered themselves with glory. The Misses McCutchen played a fine instru? mental duet. Mr. Jos. Cooper's declamation, "The Phantom Host" made our memories go back to "the days that tried men's souls." Insolo: "Uriliiant Polka" was well ren j dered by Miss Allie Cosby-; Miss WillieCozby's "Three Eiocution Les ? sons" was the most laughable recitation of j the evening. The third charade, "The Manager," had j some amusing scenes and incidents ; but not ' until the "Manager" was found in the per? son of Mr. Hamilton Cooper, did the fun really begin. .Mr. Cooperlook off the "swell dede" to perfection. Mi?s Melle McCutcben's application for a position in his theatrical troupe was amusing ; but the house was "brought down" whet) Mr. R. M. Wilson, as "Junmhan Clodhopper," applied. Vocal Solo : "The Dove," was sweetly sung by Miss Hallie Cooper. This completed the programme, and all engaged in social pleasures until 'he "wee sma' " hours. "Dright the lamps shone o'er fair women and * * * * " Two hun? dred hearts beat happily * * * * And all went merry as a marriage bell." Where all did so well, it will not do to call name?; "but, li?te the newspapers, J must be allowed to violate the rule. It is said that the Wjihost attain? ment of art, is the hiding of arl iiself." This was attained by Miss Maggie La Coste and Mr. Robt. Mayes, in the first charade, and by Misses Maggie Shaw ??nd Stelle Cooper in the last charade, aw-d others nearly reached it in different par??. The entertainment as a whole would have done credit to a town of some size. One short year ago, who dreamed of the latent talent waiting for development in this com? munity? With such results in liiis rinme, \ confidently look forward to higher attain? ments in the future; and believe these annual entertainments will be handed down as the heritage of Mt. Zion's children. Her mrtgriificent highways, with fertile farms on either side, dotted with comfortable arklf tasty homes, where culture, refinement-,. and?hospitality abound, make Mt. Zion one of tbe most attractive neighbor.hoo<ls in South? Carolina. E. W. D-. Privateer Items. PRIVATEER, S. C , Aug. 27, ]886. A good rain fell on a portion of the town ship last week ; it will greatly help the cot ton that has not stopped growing. I think the cotton will yieldabout80 percent, of an average crop, bnt only about 60 per cent. of a full crop. Since 1880 we have had only one full crop of cotton, that of'82; these short crops have materially reduced the average so that the present crop rates higher than it would were it the first short one. Our corn is pretty short, but for the last two years there has beena surplus of corn made in Privateer; and I think the present crop can be made to last by judicious usiUg and planting largely of small grain this Fall, and early peas next Spring, just here allow me to cal! attection to rye ag a safe crop for winter grasing and early forage. Planted in September or October on rich land, it will furnish good pasturage from January until the natural grasses come out. ?f needed for forage, by keeping stock off, it Will do to cut with cradle by April 1st, or earlier with mower, one bushel per acre is sufficient, and Southern Black is the only kind that succeeds with us. It is indestructible; thermometer at zero, and soil frozen a foot deep, does not hurt it. Potatoes are good. Gardens tolerable. Fruit has been very faulty this season. Mr. J. J Geddings' sons have a fine patch of tobacco. "Jaw's" "political picnic at Reynold's Mill" did not' "picnic" "worth a cent," and even Mackey's soda water and lemonade did not pay expenses. Politics are qnietj but if any one wants to get into a little excitement just go down into Clarendon. Miss E. W. Brearley, of Mt. Zion, Miss Mattie Tindal, of Clarendon, Miss Cattie MeLaurin, of Wedgefield, and Miss Eva Nettles, of Foresten, are visiting in the neigh? borhood. DBW. THE PRATT GIN. Mr. R. F. Hoyt is still sole agent for the Pratt Gin in Sumter County and will be pleased to take orders from farmers iu want of same. The Pratt Gin is so well and so widely known from its excellent qualities that no wor?s are needed to recommend it. The farmers already know that it is the best gin sold. -ALSO The Peerless Engines, made by the Geiser Manufacturing Co., Presses and other ma? chinery.

In every military encampment, at sunrise, a roll of all the names of the members of each company is called by the orderly sergeant. Beginning with Allen Adaire he goes down the list to Zaccheus Z?igler; all present call out'here 1'and are so entered. If no response is heard, an inquiry is instituted and absent ones are in some way located, when the order? ly sergeant turns and salutes the captain, who is awaiting the result, and reports 'All pres? ent or accounted for !' In the office of two Philadelphia physicians there is a roll of patients who answer by letter each three weeks lo the call of the roll of their nam?3. In the list are hundreds from every State and Territory, heginning with Alabama and ending with Wiscoosiu and Wyoming. Theee patients' reports are very curious in the minutia of their details. An interesting feature is the emphasis of gratitude expressed for being cured, in many cases the patient having -amy been led to try treatment by these physicians, after every other resource, had proved fruitless. The name given to this treatment is 'Compound Oxygen,' aud if yon would like to learn more of it. send your address to Drs.
