Kew Use of a Hip Pocket.
One time that a bip-pocket was in the right
place, and served a good purpose as a life pre?
server, was in the surf bath-*t Pawley's
Island. ? few days ago. A lady was thrown
off her feet by a heavy wave, and before she
could recover, another one rolled over her.
Nearly strangled and hardly conscious, but
ic the exercise of the natural instinct that will
make a person straggle for life, she caught a
firm hold in the hip pocket of a fellow-bather
who fortunately came in reach jest at the
right moment, and was able to gel all right
in a short time.
Monthly "Meeting of the S~ I*. I.
At the regular monthly meeting of thc
Sumter Light Infantry on last evening a com?
mittee, composed of Sergt F. M. Spann, Corp.
F. W. Crossweli and Private C. P. Ostccn.
were appointed to ascertain how many of the
Company were willing to go to the Encamp?
ment which will be held at Sp?rtanburg next
month. Capt Wi'son stated at the meeting
on last evening that he would not be willing
to leave Sumter for the Encampment with less
than twenty men and two o??icers, and that
unless that number consented to go, he
would stay at home. Another committee,
consistng of Lieut. R. A. Brand, Sergt. F.
M. Spann, and Private W. A. Mcllwain,
were appointed to make all necessary ar?
rangements for the Promenade Concert which
will be given at Music Hall on the evening of
Inspection Day, 2Gth of this month. There
witl be a Prize Drill on that evening, after
which refreshments will bc served.
Military Encampment.
Nearly every company in the State is mak?
ing efforts to go to the Miliary Encampment
which wiil be held at Spartanburg in August.
At the regular monthly meeting of the Sum?
ter Light Infantry on last evening a commit?
tee was appointed for the special purpose of
finding out how many of the S. L. I's. are
willing to attend thc Encampment. It is
to be hoped that this fine body of men will be
well represented at this gathering this sum?
mer.
Rouod trip tickets from here to Spartan?
burg and back will not cost over four dollars,
and mea?s for the soldiers will be furnished at
figures most reasonable.
We hope that Capt. Wilson's words on last
evening to the effect that "the trip would beef
incalculable benefit to his men," will result in
bringing big men to a favorable decision io
this matter.

A Freak of Nature.
Mr. Ii. C. Strange, who lives about six
niles from town, brought to our office on
yesterday a freak of nature in the s?"?a?.e of
an ear of cern, the whole of which consists
of thirty-three ears, twisted most beautifully,
and which resembles a lady's hair artistically
coiled and studded with pearls.

Town Dots.
It is said that the Canal has ' been finished,
hut the Engineer has^ not made a report to
that effect.
The Water Works project may bo dormant
for the present, but is'not dead. The town is
advertising in the Engineering and Mining
Journal of New York City, for a contract for
water works by driven well or artesian well,
or otherwise, and the Clerk of Council is at
present in correspondence with Messrs. Mof
fett, Hodgkins & Clarke, bf Watertown, N.
Y., who are the contractors for the Spartan?
burg water works.
At the meeting of Council on the ll th inst.,
Messrs. Moises' & Lee were elected Corpora?
tion Counsel for the ensuing year, ending June
1st, 1883.
Triangle Fight About a Triangle
Lot.
The Sumter Correspondent of the Neics and
Courier gives the following item, which, as
far as we knov, is about the status of case :
The town council has recently had a little
trouble about a piece of land on Alain Street,
which is claimed by several parties. At the
foot of the street, just opposite the warerooms
of the Atlantic Coast Line, the street forks off
into two avenues. Between these branches is
a V-shaped strip of land owned by Mr. A. A.
Solomons. A few days ago Mr. Solomons had
this tract surveyed und started to have it
fenced, but it was found that it would almost
completely block up the street on one side, and
the Council ordered the work to cease. Mr.
Solomons will not sell the laud at a price
which will suit the town, so the Council will
probably take as much as they need for the
street, having it appraised by disinterested
parties and payiBg for it accordingly. A day
or two ago, however, the railroad authorities
stepped in and claimed fifteen feet which has
hitherto been thought to belong to the Sol?
omons tract. This puts a new face on mat?
ters and the affair still hangs fire.
Crooked Branch Picnic.
Mr Editor-: Your correspondent chanced to
be among the fortunate number who repaired
to Crooked Branch on last Saturday to join
with the people of that community in their j
annual epulation. Former ccstora had set
apart the Fourth of July as their day of pleas?
ure, rc3t and feasting, but owing to the fact
that the Fourth came on Monday, and that j
the preparations for snch an immense affair
would be affected by the Sunday before, Sat- 1
urday was chosen as the day of rejoici?g but ]
we called it the Fourth of July Picnic all tb?
same; and little does it matter, since our
highest imaginings were so far surpassed by
the pleasantness of thc occasion that for a
time we knew not ourselves and purposes.
After a long and pleasant chat with old
friends and boyhood associates, we began to
exercise ourselves beneath the beautiful shade
trees ; when we thought we did, and sure
enough we caught a whiff from zephyrs wove,
which fairly impregnated oar whole smelling
sense with the odor of roast pig, and as a
result so overcome by the glorious anticipa?
tion of the part we would perform later in
the day, that we gave way to feelings and
sang inward songs of sweet praise to that
''lubberly boy Bobo," who, Lamb tells us,
was thc first discoverer of this delicious viand.
As we viewed the large' crowd of visitors
who, as well as ourselves, had come to
perform well their part in one particular feat?
ure of the programme, we thought of ,tbe
"seven loaves and thc seven fishes," and
some mysterious hand to increase what had I
been prepared, lest some one might leave in
gloom and disappointment. But these idle
and vain thoughts were soon dispelled by the
profuse abundance of delicacies, exquisite
and nice enough to suit the taste of the most
fastidious. When our appetite was in real
sympathy with our craviugs, we were made
happy by the tasteful manner in which Messrs.
Morris, Buddin and others, dressed the long
tables with various and substantial edibles.
Next carne a cordial invitation which was re?
sponded to in a manner becoming such
smooih and well-conducted Picnic. We con?
gratulate ourselves on never having attended
a better and tnoie peacefully managed affair.
In the afternoon a very pleasant game of
bafc ball was indulged in, which resulted in
favor of thc home club. Tho game was very
j interesting and some good playing done on
! both sides, but tue home dub played too
j much after the fashion of the "three baggers"
to lose the laurels they had won by hard
i playing. The greatest of courtesy wns shown
the visiting chili and th? game passed off
without a single interruption.
We noted fine crops al! alonji the route,
and especially in the vicinity of Shiloh, and j
Crooked Branch.
In all, our day was one of untiring pleasure
and wc returned home with kind recollections
of the hospitalities we received and the sur?
roundings we were thrown into ou that day.
Yours truly, Z.

Blind Reading.
In the report of the commencement exercises
of the Cedar Springs Institute for thc Jilind,
Deaf and Dumb, on June ??Stn, published in
the y?zes and Courier, the following mention
is made of a young lady from Sumter : [
I?Miss Susie Retnbert was called un by Prof. i
Walker, and a silk handkerchief placed ovrr j
the page. Sb* ran her hands over the book
and read in?tautiy. The handkerchief was
then doubled, and S'.K: read easily. Then she
! continued to read HP the handkerchief was
doubled until there were sixteen folds between j
her fingers itnd the letters. Your correspond- j
j eut could scarce detect any irregularities on j
the surface at this sta^c of the exercise. As j
a further test Prof. Walker then plnced twen- j
! ty-four foldsof the handkerchief o ver the page, 1
j and Miss Rein bert could maize out Sottie of 1
j the words beneath it. To me it seemed as !
' smooth as polished marble. Really the fin- j
gers become eyes to the blind."

Mr. Editer: Your correspondent from
"Smithville'' is misinformed as to the where?
abouts of the offices of Trial Justices Carson
and Fraser. They are seven or eight mile9
apart. Trial Justice Fraser's office where he
resides, near the residence of AV. R. DuBose,
a mile or two from Heriot's Cross Roads and
where be holds his court Monday, Tue3day
ar.d Wednesday, is about thc centre of his
judicial district, being about 12 miles from
the Kershaw line and about 13 miles from
Bethel Church in Swimming Pens Township.
On the Stateburg Road, he :s about 4 mile3
from bia lower line, near Gallard's X Roa?s
and 5 or ? from the line of Carter's Crossing
Township, near Mrs. McKains', The line of
his jadicial district runs to within a few miles
of the town of Straiter. For the convenience
of the lower part; of his judicial district he
holds his Court at Du?ose's X Roads, near
Mechanicsville on Thursday, Friday and
Saturday of each week. This judicial dis?
trict is about 25 miles, the long woy, from
the Kershaw line to Bethel Church and nearly
the same io a South-easterly . direction to the
Sumter line. So you Bee, no other location
except one near Heriot's Cross Roads, would
seem to meet the requirements of the office.
We have had a refreshing season through?
out this section and anice rain is falling while
I am writing. Crop3 have very, much revived
and the present prospect is fine. This is the
general rule and there are not many except
tions to it.
There is no scarcity of labor and there is a
marked improvement in its general efficiency.
The thoughtful begin to see and realize the
fact that the wretched labor of past years,
particularly as to quality, has been one of the
princ e causes of so many failures ia farming
operations and the consequent depression of
all agricultural interests. The outlook is
hopeful.

Mr. Editor : At a meeting of the members
of the Lynchburg Base Ball Club, held last
Saturday evening, it was resolved that the
undersigned should reply to the communica?
tion signed "We," and published in thc last
issue of the Watchman and Southron, in which
the writer assumes to speak, as we take it, for
the Shiloh Club. This writer charges us with
interrupting the Shiloh Club during the game
by ihe "roaring aud wailing ot that dogmatic
team, together with the shouts and cries of a
number of the antedeluvian (?) descendants of
Ham :" etc., as if this wa3 necessary on our
part to beat them. This is all bosh. All
spectators were present of their cwn accord,
and no one w.is employed to hurrah in any
manner for our club. The truth is; Shiloh
Club was beaten for want of experience, as
they admitted, and as they expected to be.
See result of a game between Crooked Branch
and Shiloh Club on 2d of July : Crooked
Branch 50 ; Shiloh 20. .
At the close of the L. and S. game, an invi?
tation was communicated from the former,
through the umpire, to the members of the
Shiloh Club to attend and participate in a so?
cial at the residence of Mr. John Hawkins,
and we happen to know that the two or three
members of the Shiloh Club who are the au?
thors of "We," attended and doubtless great?
ly enjoyed themselves.
The gentleman who umpired the game, and
which be declined to do until requested by
the Captain of the Shiloh Club, acted with
fairness and propriety both before, during
and after the playing of the game.
His impartiality needs no defense from any
quarter. FI. I. K?TTRELL,

is the best Emulsion I ever used."-L. P.

? TONGUE INKN?TST
I contracted malaria in the swamps of I r u
isiana while working for the telegraph com?
pany, and used every kind of medicine I
could hear ot without relief. ? at last suc?
ceeded in breaking the fever, but it cost me
over $100.00 and tuen my system was pros?
trated and saturated with malarial poison
and I became almost helpless. I finally came
here, my mouth so filled with sores that 1
could scarcelv eat, and my tongue raw and
filled with little knots. Various remedies
were resorted to without effect. I bought two
bottles of B. B. B. and it lias cured and
strengthened me. All sores of my month are
healed and my tongue entirely clear of knots I
and soreness, and I feel like a new man.

A 3?ost Remarkable Cusc rf Scrofula ar.d Rkcu
TTta?ism.
I have a little bey twelve years old whose
knees have been drawn r.lmost double and his
joints are perfectly Stiff, and has been in this
condition three years, unable to walk. Dur?
ing that time the medical board cf Loudon
County examined him and pronounced the
disease scrofula and prescribed, but no bene- i
fit ever derived. I then used a much adver- |
Used preparation without benefit. Three j
weeks ago he became perfectly helpless and j
suffered dreadful!}'.
A friend who had used B. B .B. advised its
use. He has used one bottle and all pain has
ceased and he can now walk. This has been
pronounced a most wonderful action, as his
complaint had bafded everything. I shall
continue to use it on him.

Having tested B. 3. B. and found it to he
all that is c'aimed for It, I commend it to any
and every one suffering from blood poison. It
has done me more good for less money and in
a shorter space of time than any blood puri?
fier I ever used. I owe the comfort of roy
Hfe to its use, for I have beeu troubled with a
severe form of blood poison for 5 or 6 years
and found no relief equal to that given by the
use of B. B. B.
