The Hog Nuisance Again-A Nui sance to Citizens and a Detri ment to the City. The Board of Health met at 6.15 o'clock Wednesday with all members present, except Dr. J. C. Spann, who was absent from the city. A number of citizens appeared before the board and complained of the hog nuisance in the city. Among the number were Col. R. M. Wallace, Mr. Altamont Moses, Coi J. M Knight, Messrs. C. T. Mason and F. C. Man ning. They complained that the hogs kept in small lots create such a stench that adj i cent residences become almost uninhabitable and that at night they cannot sit on their piazzas. Tba board adjourned and visited one of the premises complained of, and found that the complaint was well founded The bogs were ordered to be removed from the city and premises disinfected. The bog nuisance was thoroughly discuss ed, and the matter was taken nader advise ment, and the Health Officer was instructed to enforce the sanitary regulations with greater strictness Tbs statements of the gentlemen who com plained of the hogs were of such a character that they merit serious consideration and prompt action by the Board cf Health. They stated that the hogs were not only a nuisance and a fruitful breeder of disease, but a de'ri ment to the business and a drawback to the growth of the city. Skilled mechanics who are brought here from the north are appre hensive that the climate will prove injurious to their health, and when they are compelled to work day after day with a filthy hog lot under their very noses, it is difficult to keep them here. They attribute their sickness to tbe unsanitary conditions, and the hog pens are undoubtedly responsible for much of the fever tbat exists Tbe etty authorities and the Board of Health owe it to the city jp abate the bog nuisance and to enforce > e observance of ordinary sanitary precautions, and unless tbe city is kept clean, and healthy an obstacle greater than all others is placed io the way of establishing and maintaining manufacturing enterprises, requiring skilied labor. The Sumter County Medical Association met in regular quarterly session at the BanK of Sumter last friday. "Our baby was sick for a mouth with severe cough and catarrhal fever.

Kodol Dyspepsia Cure thoroughly digests food without aid from tbs stomach, and at the same time heals and restores the diseased digestive orgais.

Deputy Sheriff Gaillard went to Camden Friday and brought back Peter William?, colored, a cow thief who waa captured io Camden on August 2d. Williams is a professional cow thief, and the officers bare been looking for bim severa! months. Io April last be stole a cow from Mrs. Nora HcCutcban aod drove it to Camden. He sold tbe cow to Willie Roberts, bot the next day Hr John McCutchan, who was on the track of the thi*f, identified and recovered the cow. Williams made good bis escape, and hope of capturing bim bad been abandoned. On the night of August 1st a cow was stolen from Daniel Hart of Magnolia, and tbe next day Peter Williams appeared in Camden with a cow wbicb be tried to sell to Willie Roberts. Roberts recognized Williams as the mao who Bold bim the McCntcban cow in April, and notified the police at once. Wil liams was arrested, and tbe cow was held by the town authorities.

The Manning Times, after quoting from The Item the communication of "A Kid" io reference to the Manning Sumter ball game, makes the following remarks : "Whenever "a kia" tP's licked bs is al ways ready to assign a cause for it, but this Summer kid in sbapice up a cause, has per mitted bis chagrin to p!.-iy. .upon bis imagina tion nd his imagination thia time deceived bim, a3 we will show by eiving the uames and ages of tbe little Manning boys tbat proved Sumter could not ;'play ball a Mttle bit." Our boys were very much iatimidated by the big' struts acd the huge volume o cigarette smoke of the Sumter boya, and wben they went to the grouEds headed by Gallagher dreesed in a fancy ewaiiow-teil costume, it gave our inncceot country boys a feeline near akin to fright. Then when the city chaps talked of "bets, we got de stuff," etc , a felling of sadness sure enough came over our little boye But when Sumter went to the bat on tbe Sra inning and was taken down after pounding the wind instead of the bal), our boys felt better and mustered up some courage, wbicb braced them up so they could hardly recognize that Sumter bad a battery at ali. Tbe Sumter pitcher bad a left bended throw without curve or steam, and it did not take long for oar chaps to discover a soft thing. Wben the game was finished the ampire received the thanks of the Snmter boys, whether for fair decisions, or for poll ing tbe game through and leaving the Sumter boys alive, and able to go borne to "Break the News to Mother," we do not know "The following is a list of tbe Manning players and their ages : "Joe Dickson, 16 ; Leoo Walker, 16; Billy Barron, 14 ; Everett leeman, 14: Jake lee man, 12 ; Milton Weinberg, 13 : Shelby Davis, 16 ; Lawson McLeod, 17 ; Otis Tres cott, 13 " The Eick of the Kids. We notice in The Item an extract from "My Dear Appelt's" paper, in which the Sumter boys are evidently intended to te "roasted," but wbicb was a poor apology for c "roast " With the umpire manifestly par tial to tbe Manning tram on their own grounds and with players some of whom were old enough to be tbe father? of the Sumter team they should not take so enoch glory to themselves for defeating the kids from here. But they should eive ns a chance to return the compilaent. Why is it that they cannot be induced to come to Sumter? Tbey have been repeatedly challenged, and if I mistake not tbe Sumter boys were so anx ious to get them to come that they offered to pay their expenses if they would only come here, but tbey cannot be dragged here with ropes, It's a mighty poor cock tbat won't crow on bis own bill. Let the boys from "My Dear Appelt's" ter ritory come to Sumter and the kids will give them reason to return singing, "Break the News to Mother." Volcanic Eruptions.
