Mrs. Elizabeth White, wife of Mr. William White, died on Saturday afternoon at 3 30 o'clock ot peratocetis after an illness of less than a week, aged twenty-nine years. Mrs White wa3 a daughter of the late Col. R G Howard, of Florence county. She leaves one child, a daughter, six years old. She was a woman of fine character and lovable disposi? tion, and ber early death is a cause of sincere sorrow to a wide circle of frienas. At tbe Presbyterian Church Sunday after? noon at 4 o'clock, the funeral services of the late Mrs. Wm White, occurred. Notwith? standing the inclement weather a large cum? ber gathered to give expression by their pres? ence of their deep sympathy and esteem. Seldom bas a sadder death occurred in Surxter; the deceased was eo young, and life bad so much wrapped up in it for her Around ber pure young heart were entwine*' affections the tenderest on earth As tbe sorrowing cortege bealing their pre? cious burden reached tbe open church door the crgaa in plaintive notes broke the solemn hush of that peeceful Lord's dr.-' evening, deepening in sadder cadences as the beautiful words of a familiar hymn mingled io vocal tenderness, tbe scene wa3 most pathetic ; every heart waa touched, and each face bore tbe mute impress of unspoken sympathy a? the now broken home circle gently pressed to? ward the altar, accompanied by that precious one's "ewe lamb" now motherless. The ser? vices were most impressive, the pastor as be alluded to the deceased, speaking of ber as a saint, was visioly affected. During bis touch- ? iog remarks there was scarcely a dry eye in the church The casket was covered with floral offer ings, geraniums and flowers, which loving bands had gathered from the balmy atmos? phere of the conservatory. Tbey suggested a spriog time elsewhere than without, where tbe now scarce melted snowdrift told of win? ter's deadiy chill. And so amid the gloom and utter desolation of the hour seemed to come tbs inspiring refrain : "There everlasting spring abides, '.And never" fading flowers "Death like a narrow sea divides . ;,Tbat heavenly land from ours." The interment took place at the csmetery. Mrs. Frances Dickins, widow of tbe late Lao?don H. Dinkies, died ai ber home ic Jor? dan at 12.15 Tuesday moroi?g.

Nov 1-3m i MAYOR'S COURT. * Jim McLean was arrested last Wednesday nigbt ry policeman Weeks for disorderly COD dnctdisturbng the peace andatrempting tom cite a row on M*io Street. At tbe trial next day be plead not guilty but tbe evidence wes against Dim, showing that bis conduct was such that be would have provoked a difficulty had he not been arrested. The Mayor gave McLean a lecture aod warned him against creating a row and a fine of $3 was imposed. The first cases brought against citizens for violating the anti-bcg ordinance were bear? in the Mayor's Court Saturday morning- The cases were brought by Health Officer Rear? don, and the, offenders were arrested on war? rants issued by Mayor Hogbso? on the affi? davit of the Health Officer The offenders were Horace flarby, W E. Brunsoo and J. I Bronson. When Messrs. Harby and J. I. Bronson were arraigned before the Mayor they made statements in explanation ot hav. iog bogs oo their premises-Mr. Harby stat? ing that be purchased the hogs a few days ago and having been very bnsy had neglected to >end them out to bis farm, but bad sent them out this morning; Mr. Brunson said that the fence of bis bog pasture, which is outside of the city limits, bad been broken and be bad put the bogs in tis lot until the pasture fence could be repaired. The Mayor dismissed the charges without imposing a fine, but gave notice that in future tbe ordi? nance will be enforced to tbe letter and no excuse or explanation will be accepted &s a plea in extenuation of a violation of the strict construction of the terms of the ordi? nance Mr. W. M. Graham was before the Mayor Monday morning for violating the anti-bog ordinance. His offense was keeping a drove of bogs in bis twenty acre pasture on bia farm in the Turkey creek bottoms. This pasture lies within the city limits and while it is remote from all dwelling houses and tbe keeping of hogs cannot De injurious to the health of the community still it is a violation of the ordinance to keep bogs io it and tbe Mayor so regarded it. A fi9e of SI was imposed and Mr Graham w*s directed TO remove tbe bogs at the earliest possible day. The session or the Mayor's Court Tuesday morning was quite profitable from a financial point of view, and, a9 the cootributors are old timers, they are hardened and do not mind giving up their money. The docket was as follows : Martha Sumter, disorderly conduct, and usicg obscene language on Red and White Row. She plead guilty and paid the fine of $10 without a flicker. Dora Pringle, disorderly conduct, usicg profane language oo Red and White Row. A plea of not guilty was entered but the evideoce was against ber a;id the fine was $5 or 10 days. Samuel Bracey, alias Big Stuffey, public drunkenness and disorderly conduct, fie plead guilty and the fine w&s fixed at $5. -^? It has been demonstrated repeatedly in every state in the union and in many for? eign countries that Chamberlain's Congh Remedy is a certain preventive and cure for croup. It bas become the universal remedy for that diseasa. M. V. Fisher, of Liberty, W. Va , only repeats what has been said around the glo^be when he writes: ,CI bave used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy iu my family for several yeare and always with per? fect success. We believe that it is not only the best cough rea edy, but that it is asure cure for croup. It b?s saved tbe lives of our children a number of time3." This remedy for sale by Dr. A. J. China. The Teacher's Association of Sumter Coun? ty met in monthly session in tbis city la3t Saturday. Tbe attendance was good, and a number of new narres were added to tbe roll. Practical work was given in metoods of teaching arithmetic. The next meeting will be beldFab. 17. The anti bog ordinance is not a dead letter, and between the health officer, police and mayor the people who bave bogs within tbe city Itmi's will find tbat they cannot disre? gard the law and escape punishment. The weather bureau wired City Clerk Hurst Sunday to look out for snow an1 freezing temperature Monday. The snow came on schedule time, but the sun made its appear? ance about noon and tte temperature mode? rated considerably for a short time. Later it turned colder and a freezing temperate has since prevailed. , The petition foran election to decide a9 to tbe issue of bonds for s'reet improvements is being quite generally signed, very few to whom it bas neeu presented having declined to sign it It will be well for those to whom the petttioo is presented to remember tbat only freeholders are allowed to sign a peti? tion for an election. There was a fusiiade of pistol shots on Lib? erty Street, between Church and New Streets la8tThor3day night that startled and alarmed a gre*t many people Toe police who were on duty a; the time hurried to the scene but the persons who did :ne snootlog bad made their escape and no one who knew anything about it coutd be found The police suspect certain persons and they will keen an eye cn them for some time to come. There 19 no doubt but tbat the Gisturbances ar.d firing of pistols that have occurred lamely during the night were the acta o' reckless and irre? sponsible par';P8 who neither respect them? selves, nor regard tbe peace and order cf the city. Their conduct is culpable ?ad dis? graceful aod cannot be condemned too severe? ly, for it is such things that provoke difficul? ties and bring on rows. it is to be boped ibat the police will succeed in spotting the guilty persons and obtam evidence against tbem sufficient to insure iheir severe punish? ment. August Flower. "It isa eurprisiog fact," says Prof. Hou too, "that in my travelp io all paris of tbe world, for tbe last ten years, I have met more people having used Green's Augu3t Flower than any other remedy, for dyspepsia, de? ranged liver and stomach, and for constipa? tion. I find for tourists and salesmen, or for persons filling office positions, where head? aches and general bad feelings from irregular habits exist, that Green's August Flower is a grand remedy. It does not injure the system by frequent use, sad is excellent for sour stomachs aud indigestion." Sample bottles free at Dr A J Chtua's.

The mission now being conducted by Father Burke, of New Yo k city, was well attended last night The P-uhst community of which Father Burke is a member is spe? cially engaged in work of this character. At present there are five of its representatives preaching in South Carolina and are to con? tinue their lacors here for a few weeks. The mission in Sumter is io last one week. In j speaking of bis work today, Father Burke, said : "In the year 1858 five Catholic priests, with Father Hecker ag their leader, all of whom were converts to the Catholic Church, started a society which is known aa the \ Paolist Fathers. From the beginning their work bas beeD to preach the truths of reli ! gioo to the people of this country. One of I their chief works bas teen to explain Catho? lic teaching to non-Catbolics ; and every? where words of praise and appreciation have been accorded them for the simple reason that their preaching is free from abuse aud con? troversy." . "Eneoies write that we area money-loving people without deep religious earnestness. But these missions, given throughout the United States, prove clearly the falsity of this accusation Catholics and non Catholics are found everywhere, whether in large cities or small country towns, rsady ana eager to listen." "There is one feature of our work," contin? ued Father Borke, "which should 8tiract every fair-minded person Tbis is the Ques? tion Box. It is of course almost impossible TO toucb upon ail points of interest by means of sermons or lectures. By means of tbe question-box tbe missionary receives sugges? tions that enable him to give briefly and clearly a reply desired by one person which may be just what another wished to know, but did not kcow just bow to ask it " "It is always urged that all honest icquirers make free use of this mode of securing infor? mation, aod ii invariably proves helpful. Kindly answers are given always, free from sarcasm or iovective. It is found to be won? derfully effective-tbe gentle answer-and calls forth many complimentary expressions from all non-Catbolics who may be present." All non-Catbolics of the community are cordially invited to drop questions bearing upon moral and religious topics io the box which will be found at the door of Church: Through tbis means tbe Catholic church and ber doctrines can be ?et forth in sucb a way that fair-minded people may appreciate what io reality sbe is and what are ber teachings Too maoy have ontaiced knowledge of ber from second hand sources and oftentimes from ber enemies. The role of the missions given by the Pauhst Fathers, is that there be no tbnse of creed or individual. The ques? tion-box deserves to be patronized, for it is an institution for fair play. mm I > i mm* - Monument to be Unveiled. The monument erected to tbe iate W. P Wactor by Hollywood Camp.
