In concluding bis retort Clerk Walsh says: Io compliance with Sections 660 and 674 of the Revised Statutes 1893 and acts of the General Assembly amendatory thereto, the County Board of Commissioners would most respectfully submit the foregoing 56 pages as showing the claims 6led audited and paid and unpaid for the months of November and December 1895 and for the fiscal year 1896, leaving a balance unpaid for the two months of 1895 of $1,899.13, nod for the year 1896 of $17,753.45 all of which will be liquidated from the taxes collected for 1896 The condition of the highways and bridges throughout the county is remarkably good, considering the amount of work done in time alloted for road workmg. The chain gang work is as yet but an experiment. We are undecided at this time whether or not it will be to the interest of the county to continue to thos work the convicts. The Poor House and cabins on the farm are in fair repair and tolerably comfortable. The inmates of the Poor House are well cared for and have had but little serious eickoess or disease for the past year. Weare now pay? ing 16 cents per day per inmate, a reduction of four cents per day per inmate from 1896. There are now 27 iomates of the Poor House, 21 white and 6 colored. The County Board of Commissioners would further state that they have endeavored to apprentice some of the pnuper children, but so far have met with no.success, the chil? dren being not at all desirable for appren? tices Why will you buy bitter nauseating tonics when Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic is as pleasant as Lemon Syrup. Your druggist is authorized to refund the money in every case where it fails to cure. Price, 50 cents. Declined the Appointment Mr. I. M. Nichole, of Privateer townehip, who was appointed Magistrate of 2d District by Gov. Ellerbe, h?s declined to accept the position, and another appointment will re necessary. Mr. Nichols was not an nppli cant for the place aud his recommenda? tion by the Legislative delegation was due to a recognition of his qualifications for the po? sition and the wishes of a large number of the residents of the 2d District that be should be appointed. Mr Nichol's determination to decline the appointment will be generally re? gretted in bis district. Mayor's Court.

The Story of the Reformation as presented at the Academy of Musjc Monday evening under the direction of Mrs. H. E. Monroe, of Phila? delphia, was witnessed by a crowded bouse. The storv was well told by Mrs. Monroe, who exhibited a thorough familiarity with the life and history of Martin Luther and the man? ners and customs of the ttmea a? well HS a wide acquaintance with the extensive litera? ture bearing on tbe reformation inaugurated by Luther. The lecture was illustrated and arxpli?ed by a series of magnificent stereop ticoo views, allegorical processions and real? istic scenes from the life of Luther, in which a hundred persons took part.. Tbe costumes were reproduction of the styles in vogue in the different countries of Europe in the 16th century, and the performance as a whole is well conceived to implant in a receptive mind a true and vivid conception of the character aod surrounding of Luther, the trials he underwent and the obstacles he surmounted by the force of bis brave and indomitable spirit. The various members of the cast entered into their parts with spirit, and made of an historical occurrence a living and realistic drama. The cast *was as follows : Errurth Mook, Mr S R. Chandler. Soloist, Mr. D. L. Rambo. Emperor, Rev. J. C. Trauger. Elector* Mr. J. M. KnigbL Cardinal, Mr D. M. Young. Luther, Rev. S. B. Hillock. Melanchton, Mr A. G Flowers. Spalatin, Mr. J. F. Laogbrey.

The performance waa repeated last evening ing with greater perfection and those pres? ent enjoyed the entertainment. Captain Dick Again The second performance of "Capt. Dick" did not draw a9 large an audience as the first, which was not unexpected, as there was such a handsome turo out of theatre goers on Tuesday eveoing. There was, however, a fairly good audience,' and the play wa9 folly as well presented ss oo the previous evening. The audience, was delighted and the applause was liberal throughout the evening. Capt. Dick scored a success in Sumter and would draw a crowd whenever played here. The Road to Camden. We have it from good authority that the ?. R. & C. will begin the building of a baoch .line from Camden to Sumter about the 1st of April. This line bas been projected far a long time, but we are informed that it will surely be built this Spring, The distance is only 30 miles and will give the O. R. & C. important connections -Lancaster Ledger. The People's Ice Co. The People's Ice Mfg. Co advertises to-day for bids for erecting the buildings for the fac? tory, which is an indication that tbe direc? tors are going ahead with the work of get? ting the plant in readiness for ice making when the warm weather commences. The contract with the manufacturers of the ice machinery which was signed about two weeks ago specifies that the plant shall be completed within ninety days. The first payment far the plant was made when the contract was signed and there is DO doubt but that the factory will be in operation within the time specified. The plant con? tracted for is of the latest improved type and makes ice more cheaply than any system now ou the market The compression system is the one selected by the directors after a care? ful and painstaking investigation of the mer? its of al! the systems offered them, and they are satisfied that the plant will be as com? plete and economically operated as any in the State The people who subscribed to the stock of the People's Ice Company are too deepiy interested in the success of the en? terprise to allow anything to prevent the consummation of the plans, and they will see that it ia a success, for upon the success of the People's Ice Co. re3ts the certainty of cheap ice in the future.
