C, this morning for burial.
is CAESAR MEYERS OUT?
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.
Miss Jane Purdy presiding at the
punch howl.
i
Those enjoying Mrs. Smith's hos?
pitality were: Mrs. F. C. Manning.
Mrs, R. C. Richardson, Mrs. G. D.
Shore, Mrs, Rees, Mrs. Tom Sumter,
Mrs. John Sumter, Mrs. Slddall, Mrs.
Haynaworth; Mrs. Dargan, of Dar?
lington, Mrs. T. T. Moore, Mrs. King
man, Mrs. Jeknins, Mrs. Knight. Mrs.
Dick, Mrs. D?the, Mrs. Baker; Misses
Richardson, Ingram. Klngman, To
bln, Gentry, Purdy and Slddall.
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

: The S. L. I are drilling hard twice
a week now, Tuesday and Thursday
nights, instead of twice a month as
, heretofore. They wish to be well
drilled when the time comes for
i
them to leave on the 20th inst., so
that they may make a good showing
at Chickamauga.
