From the Way Chickens Are Being Stolen Caesar Must Be Free. Chicken thieves are loose In the land and it makes one wonder if Caesar Meyers, alias Georgetown Caesar, has completed his term on the ging. Last night Mr. John T. Green lost ten chickens, half Rhode Island Reds. Either Caesar Is free and at his tricks again, or he has a rival that should be run down. Mrs. Smith Entertains. On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Perci val Smith, entertained at her resi ' dence on Harvin street, complimen ! tary to Mrs. F. C. Manning, one of the season's brides. This stately and refined old home, , perhaps the oldest In the city, is ?specially adapted for entertaining with its BpaclOUl rooms, filled with old-liashioned furniture, and wide OOOl halls and piazzas, never so In 1 vitlng as on these mid-summer days. Several hands of bridge whist were played at the end of which it was found that Miss Minna Richardson ! had scored highest. The first prize, a hand-painted cake plate, was given her. The consolation, an odd and , artistic stein, fell tp Mrs. L. D. Knight, , and a lovely cut glass dish was pre? sented to Mrs. Manning?the guest of honor. The guests were then invited into j the dinning room, where iced re? freshments were served, and fruit punch dispensed by Misses Marion ; Gentry, Frances Smith and Wright.

There is a rumor afloat that j-nother hank is to be organized here, but it has been impossible to run it down and get the facts. -o The succ ess of the movement to j raise funds to build a Y. M C. A. for ; S imter has encouraged Newberry to j make an effort to do the same thing, and a campaign to raise $25,000 is to i be inaugurated at once. It is to be hoped that Sumter wi'j have many j more imitators in the goad work. -o The corn crop on the Harby lot on i West Liberty street has many people i guessing. When it was planted it was generally predicted that it would be a failure, as the wiseacres said it was planted too thick, the land was too rough, that it had too much ashes in it and various other rea? sons. But the corn has kept on grow? ing and flourishing, and now the only guess is on the number of bushels that It will yield. Most of the guess ers place the crop at more than one hundred bushels to the acre. They are not far wrong, for if each stalk produces only one good ear there will be more than enough corn to shell out considerably more than a hun? dred bushels to the acre. j The following bodies of militia be ! longing to the 3rd regiment, passed j ! through the city today en route to j j the encampment at Chickamauga: j Company G, Elloree; Company F, I Georgetown; Hospital Corps, Elloree; j : Washington Light Infantry The Sum- i tor Guards, The German Fusilliers, Company A, and Company E, all of , Charleston, and company from Con-; The invincibility of the Colonial t falls at the first test.?Rochester i Herald.
