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

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.

The Story of the Reformation.
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.

Isabella (Soloist), Miss Carrie Solomons.
Catharine von Bora, Miss Daisy Nash.
Hilda, Miss Helen Brown.
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.
