Summerton, April 19.?This week
snarks something of an "Era of New
Ufe" tn the business world of our
thriving llttls town. Much to the
satisfaction of the whole community.
W. R. Coskrey reopened this morn
tag. In accordance with announce?
ments sent out last week, he begins
today the eale of his entire stock at
greatly reduced rates. Already the
town l?r alive with thone eager to take
advantage of Mr. Coskrey's liberal of?
fer; and It seems as If there will be
no trouble In effecting Its ready die
e Mr. W, C. Johnson, who ran a soda
fountain In connection with his mer?
chandise business, will this season
m an Ice Cream Parlor In the old
illllnery department of the Summer
Mercantile Company. Mr. John
expects Mr. Arrowsmlth, his faV
^?V*rt ?oda Jerker," to arrive tonight,
parlor hat been furnished, the
fountain put In plsce. and everything
as In resdlness for the warm weather
and its call for cool drinks.
The residence being built for Mr.
W. R. CosUrey is nearlnt Completion,
and will prob Ably be occupied by
H?m in a very few days. This bulld
htg !? a very handsome and conven?
ient!, planned house, and has the
additional advantage of being located
upon one of Summerton's prettiest
residential lota It is situated on the
eastern portion of Main street In a
grove of beautiful oaks which furnish
a lovely setting for a resldnce.
Another evidence of the construc?
tive *<?rk beim? don ? In and around
town 1? the claying and rep tiring of
the streets, already allude 1 to In for?
mer letters. Dukes street which runs
at right anKies to and Inersect* Main
Street hss been cla\> i << Sf Its great?
er portion; and \v. II IrMn-d sidewalks
have been construct* | eg etthef
aide. The force of labor Is now at
work repairing the curbing on Main
and other streets. This Is only one
of the many Improvements being ef?
fected by the town ocuncll. Fre?
quent meetings are being held to dis?
cuss matters of Interest to the town.
The purchase of a tire engine Is now
being agitated; and an agent Is ex?
pected at an early date to demon?
strate the use of one which wss ret:
ommended to the council.
The frequency with which drum?
mer* are \lslting our community Is a
noticeable and ominous fact. It would
s.'( m to Indicate one of two thing*
or perhaps both: that the stocks of
our merchants and business men need
constant replenishing or else that
Summerton Is especially attractive to
visiting strangers. Every train bring*
more or less agents of all kinds, und
the three hotels are being duly pat?
ronised. On arrival at the station,
the visitor has not far to go to "Hun?
ter" Hotel; and the Hotel Central and
Benbow House vie with it in affording
entertainment to all comers.
One source of amusement and en?
tertainment to the people of Summcr
|Ofl and surrounding community dur?
ing the past week was an amateur
performance given by the young po?
ple here. "Joslah's Courtship," n
comedy In four acts, was played In
the school auditorium on last Friday
night, the proceeds of which will be
given for the support of the High
School baseball team. The different
characters were well taken, and the
play waa quite a success. The music
rendered by the "Summerton Orches?
tra" between acts was one of the en?
joyable features of the programme.
Following Is the cast as given on the
programme:
Joslah Perkins, eccentric old man,
Harry Davis.
Tom Hart, leading Juvenile man,
Grady Walker.
Richard Roland, heavy character,
F. A. Wells.
Harr> Sharp, detective walking
gent, Julian Scarborough.
Joe, Juvenile character, Percy Ten
nant.
Mike, irlsh dialect comedy, Hall
Nelson.
Jeff. Ethiopian comedy, Ceth Ma?
son.
Prlscllla Brown, old maid comedy,
Miss Annie Rutledge.
Edna Brown, leading Juvenile lady.
Miss Mildred James.
Birdie, Soubrette, Miss Lucy Mood.
Mrs. Black, walking lady, Miss
Kate Cantey.
The auditorium is well adapted to
the exhibition of plays and perform?
ances of all kinds, and is of Itself ai(
object of Interest and admiration.
The trustees of our graded school
have succeeded in getting for Sum
merton a splendid school building
which will compare favorably with
that of any town several times its
size. Plans are now being advocated
to enlarge the high school district.
Petitions for special elections are be?
ing circulated, at which time it is
hoped by the trustees that the town?
ships of St. James and St. Paul with
such portions of Friendship and Con?
cord as now He outside of the graded
school district, will be added to the
present high school district. This will
greatly enlarge the high school and
enable many more families to have
the advantage of the present splendid
school accommodations.
It was feared last evening that Olli
school would lose one of Its compe?
tent and attractive teachers. At 10:30
o'clock, at the residence of the
groom's parents Miss Cora Collins
was married to Mr. Grady Walker.
Miss Collins has for several year,
been In charge of the primary gradei?
while Mr. Walker has this year bee;
a student In the high school depart?
ment. We understand that Mrs. Walk
er is at her old stand again this morn?
ing and we hope that the aequlsltio.
of another "Grade" will not prevent
hei resuming charge of the othe.
two.
Mr. T. S. Rogan, who for some
weeks past has been away under
treatment, returned last Tuesday
night. Mr. Rogan's many friends are
glad to have him back again, and re?
joice that his condition Is so much im?
proved. We hope that very soon hit
health will be sufficiently restored to
permit of his resuming business
duties.
Mr. R. B. Belser, a prominent law?
yer and business man of Sumter.
spent a few days in town last week.
Miss Margarette Plowden has re?
turned to accept a position as book?
keeper in the office of W. R. Coskrey.
Two games of baseball will be play?
ed here tomorrow and the next day
between the Denmark High School
nnd our local team. We expect the
Summerton boys to maintain their old
time reputation, and win the laurels.
We regret to learn that after thl.?
month Mr. J. T. Frlerson will not be
employed In the Colclough Hanlw.u
store; he will leave for Charleston In
a couple of weeks?not as a result Ol
the "send-off" we gave him last week,
we hope.
Dr. Ellison Capers spent SSVersl
days laM week In Charleston and
Ceorgetown.
A Thought for the Week.
The basis of our fovsnnnsnl bslni
the opinion of the people, the vet y
first ohjei t should bg to keep that
right; sn<i were it left to me to de< i<l<
whether we should have a govern

l?e:^ without government, 1 should not
bSSftats a moment to prefer the lat?

man should receive those papers and

lUX.INS LI FF SENTENCE.
J. S. Purnell, Convicted of Murder.
Decides Not to Appeal.
Darlington, April 18.?J. S. Parnell,
alias "Dock" Parnell, under a life?
time sentence for the killing of Rob?
ert Randall In March. 1908, has aban?
doned his appeal and was taken to
the State Penitentiary last Friday to
btgin his sentence.
In March, 1908, Parneil, observing
Randall working near the line of the
lands occupied by them, and being
enraged because Randall was paying
no attention to his notices for him
not to be about trig place, took his
gur and fired without, warning, tear?
ing a great hole in Randall's neck
from which death ensued immediate?
ly.
Parnell was tried and convicted but
recommended to the mercy of the
court in the June term, 1908, but
through hia attorney, Mr. E. C.
Woods, gave notice of his intention to
appeal to the Supreme Court, and has
remained in the Jail at this place un?
til last week, when the abandonment
of his Intention to appeal was decid?
ed upon.
Since Parnell's incarceration, Mrs.
Parnell has married again.
The man in the moon is the only
