Miss McDonald's Opening. A glance into the windows of Miss McDonald's Millinery and Ladies' Goods Em? porium, not to speak of her show cases and well-filled shelves, reveals a scene of beauty which is well calculated to draw the dollars out of the pockets of the ladies. Such bewil? dering beauty is a terrible temptation these times to purchase some of the lovely Spring novelties displayed bj Miss McDonald, whose opeo i ng. to-day has been a great success. The opening will continue to-morrow, and Miss McDonald will be glad to see ail her friends. Colored Mass Meeting. Oa Monday night at Matthiessen's Halla large number of colored men, together with a few whites who went for curiosity, assembled to discuss the issues involved in the municipal campaign. M. B. Fields was elected Chairman, and J. C. Whitaker, Secretary. The meeting was boisterous at times, and red bot speeches were made by Z. E. Walker and J. C.

It is said that this meeting is to be followed by others until the election. The magic, silent sewer-The Wheeler & Wilson, No. 9.

This is the name of a- weekly paper pub? lished tn this city by colo.td mea for colored men. The first nnmber is before us. Editor, Rev. C. C. Scott, A M.; Rev. W. G. Deas, business manager. The paper is printed in the office of tbe Sumter Herald. The salutatory states that tbe effort of the paper will be "to promote unity among tbe colored people of tbe State, and at tbe same time endeavor to do our pnrt in bringing about harmony be? tween the two races dwelling together bere." If we are to judge of tbe methods proposed to effect these commendable results, by the tone of the editorial note on tbe Gayden murder, we must say that the endeavor is not likely to prove a success. -.m~mmn^ ^<>- -+mm?m-~ Spring Opening. It is a difficult matter to give an idea, in words, of the beautifol display of Spring and Summer goods at Schwartz Bros., therefore the attempt is not made. It is sufficient to say that in every department all of the fashionable goods could be seen so arraoged as to create the most pleasing effects. A "Ferris Wheel," constructed of doilleys, was a perfect reproduction, in.minia ture, of the Chicago, Wonder ; and a bicycle of lace and trimmings also received consider? able admiration. The display of novelties io the millinery department attracted tbe greatest number of visitors and kept that portion of the store filled all the time. It is said by many that this opening proved to be the crowning effort of the Messrs. Schwartz. Farmers' Insurance Association. There was a conference of the County Pre? sident, Board of Directors and local agent of this enterprise, with the State agent of the company, held last Saturday in the Director's room of the Bank of Sumter. The State agent tead statistics showing the immense sums that went out of the State for fire insur? ance every year, and the little returned to pay losses, and spoke of the work done in other counties, and the prospects of the Asso? ciation. The businessof the Local Association was shown to be in a healthy condition, and growing, in spite of the stringency of the times, and the season of the year. It was stated that there are more than $160,000 in the Association, which is daily increasing in membership. The members feei that they have passed toe experimental stage of devel? opment, and consider that their co-operative schem? is des iced to save more money to the people of tbe county than any financial organ? ization ever established here. Proceedings of Court. Since our last issue, tbe Court of Sessions bas wound up its business. The sixteen persons convicted of penitentiary offences were sent to that institution Monday night.' Since our last report the following cases j have been disposed of : James Boatright-assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature-not guilty. Jack Mcilwaine-assault and battery with intent to kill-not guilty. Enos Cockerel I-same charge-same ver? dict. James Holmes-assault and battery of a high aod aggravated nature-guilty and sentenced to one year in tbe penitentiary. John T. Hurst-assault of a high and ag? gravated nature-guilty- 3 months in the County jail or pay a fine of ?50. Fine paid. Burr and George Smith-assault and battery of a high and aggravated nature not guilty. The mle against J. E. Wilson and E. M. Cooper to show cause why their bond in John R. Keels' case should not be forfeited was called op and upon motion of counsel j for respondents the matter was continued j until the next term of Court. In the matter of the rule against B. G. Pierson's bond in the Allison case, the rule was argued and Judge Benet reserved bis de? cision. Counsel for defendant made a motion for a new trial in the case of John Evans, but the motion was refused. The dispensary cases pending in the Court have not been tried. Upon tbe conclusion of the business nf the Court of Sessions the civil business was taken up. Quite a large plumber of judgments have been entered up at this term, and it is pro? bable that the Court will cot adjourn before Friday. ? ? mmmmm Our Advertisers. D. J.

Tho Gayden Murder. Last Thursday morning . Robert Weeks, believed to Se implicated in the Gayden 1 murder, and surrendered to the police in Charleston by his uncle, was brought here by Deputy Sheriff Gaillard, and lodged in jail. Weeks, upon being questioned, told what appears to be a straight story. He said he and Andrews bad "beaten" a ride on the freight from the Camden Crossing on the Friday previous, to Columbia, arriving there about 4 o'clock p.m.; that they two went to a Mr3 Strobel's on Washington Street and got their supper, leaving there about 9 o'clock, and repaired to the depot, wh?*re they boarded another freight for Augusta: that they reached Langley about 8 o'clock next morning, when Andrews got off, while he went on to Augusta ; that returning later to Langley he waited there until about 6 o'clock p. m. when be boarded a freight going to Charleston, arriving there about 5 o'clock Sunday morning. The rest is known. Mrs. Strobel appeared before the Coroner at Wedgefield Monday morning, while in this city where she spent Sunday night. Mrs Strobel corroborated Weeks' story as to his I whereabouts up to about 10 o'clock Friday night. It would not hare been possible, if this is the correct hour, for Weeks and A Dd rews to have reached Bastover by the time the robbery at the depot occurred that night. The result of Mrs. Strobel's testimony was to effect the re ease of Week*. Ii is said that the indictment against Andrews will also be withdrawn for the same reason. The deputies sent to Barnwell on Saturday to iodentify a man supposed to be McLeod, returned Sunday evening, tbe man not being McLeod. Neither McLeod nor Weeks nor Andrews have neen seen on this side of th? Wateree river since the robbery of the Eastover depot, but McLeod's coat, if it is his coat, found in the depot, fixes the crime of robbery on him, it would seem, but beyond that the evidence does not go. It is piain, however, that Mr. Gayden was not murdered tor bis money, because his body was not robbed after be was shot. It is therefore most pro? bable that be bad arrested or bad come up oo the party or parties that shot bim. Who these were it is impossible at this time to say. It strikes us, however, that unless the alibi sought to be proved by Week9 and Andrews is sustained by a more exact and complete story of his or their movements from supper time Friday, until Week's appearance in Charleston Sunday morning, his release is rather premature. Did either or both of the freight trains on the W. C. <fe A. road leave Columbia that night after 9 o'clock. This is very important Is there a freight leaving Columbia for Angusta at 11 o'clock at night ? Does it make less than eight miles an hour? For if it took from ll p. m., until between 8 and 9 a. m., to make Langley, which is not more than seventy miles from Columbia, the train is pbeoominaily slow. Why should he and Andrews part company at Langley, when both were going into Georgia, and con? sequently, through Augusta? Why did be also not get off at Langley when Andrews did, if he had changed his miud and intended going to Charleston ? Many other questions suggest themselves, such as an explanation of their conference with McLeod, and tbe depar? ture of all three afterwards towards Columbia? j But we suppose that if we had all the testi? mony before us, as the Coroner did, we would be able to answer some at least of these ques? tions to our satisfaction. ? ? -- The Mutual Life Insurance Co. of New York. The business of the Mutual Life Insurance j Company of New York, for the year 1893, shows a marked increase compared with the | financial exhibit made during any prior year, !
