CASE NOT BEING PUSHED, Witnesses Larking in Case Against Negress lor Conducting a Disorder* |y House, The case against Patience Robin son, a negro woman who is alleged to have been conducting a disorder? ly house off \V?st Liberty street, is about to lie dropped by Magistrate Wells for laek of witnesses. At the time that the Degress was arrested it was stated tht there would be a number of witnesses to hear evidence to tin- fact that the house she was conducting was a disorderly One and one injurious to the morals of the young men of the county. When the hearing was first taken the woman was given one wa?ek to get out of the county, but she was not disposed to leave Bumter and resisted tlie injunction of the court. Later she was arrested, but releas? ed on bail, since which time Judge Wells has been unable to secure wit? nesses who will swear that the place is a public nuisance. The woman Statt d that she would, if forced to appear in the courts, have a large number of the young men of the city appear as witnesses in her behalf. SEWERAGE LINE NEARLY COM? PLETED. The work on the new sewerage line extending from Oakland avenue down Salem avenue is almost com? pleted and probably will be by the end of this week if nothing happens to stop the good progress which is now being made on the line. A full force of hands is now en? gaged and the work has been pushed on as fast as possible during the past two months. All of the work, such as tilling in and the putting in of manholes, which was left behind by the workmen as they went along, was taken up last woek and completed . and now the work that has to be done , is all between Dingle street and Oak? land avenue. About fifty feet of pipe has been laid on this block. There are 530 feet In the block. The whole line is approximately 5,200 feet long and was to have been completed in February, but owing to the scarcity of labor and other causes it was de? layed. No bad results have been caused by this delay, howeevr, and It Is probable that the contractors ( are the only losers. The forfeit, if , they ore made to bear any because the work was net completed at the time stated In the ? ontruet, will b< discussed at the next meeting of city council. Mr. L. D. Jennings is now taking options on all available property suit? able for sites for the hotel. Those who have lots which they would like to offer as sites for the hotel would con? fer a favor on Mr. Jennlng3 by calling on him at once and signing an option for the property. NEGRO PREACHER ARRESTED. Arresten! on Charge of Purging Name ??r Mr. C. A. EUerbec to a Note. (}. B, Hunt?T, i. neun? preacher I living in this city who has been en- I gaged in getting up funds to build a| church down near the old factory Bite, was arrested Wednesday by Con? stable Muldrow On a warrant sworn j out by Mr. s. M. McLeod, cashier of the People's Hank, charging him with forging Mr. C. A. Ellerbea's name to j a note for Hunter w as unable to raise bond i and was lodged in jail until a pre- j llmlnary hearing could be arranged for. Hunter made arrangements; sometime ago to borrow the money ; from the People's Dank on condi- J tion that he could get Mr. Ellerbee to endorse the note. That morning he brought up the note to the bank, but ipon comparison it was found that the signature on the note was very ' dissimilar from that of Mr. Ellerbee's j on other papers. A warrant was con- j sequently sworn out and Hunter was ' ' nabbed as he came into the bank for I the money. \ The Item and Watchman and South- ! ron Popularity Contest.

CLEARANCE SALE OF FINE CLOTHES ^TOW comes the time when we begin to clear the decks for the fall campaign of clothes-selling; we like to have all the summer goods out of the way; as complete a clean-up as possible; and we try to do it by making special prices on what we have left. HART SCHAFFNER & MARX FINE GOODS The clothes are the same that we've been selling right along at regular prices; they're just as good now as they were then; such clothes don't deteriorate by time ; even wearing them Jdoesn't affect theip as much as some clothes. The only difference you'll find is in the prices; and we've made them low as an inducement to the men who haven't yet bought new clothes, or who are willing to buy now for next season, or for the remainder of this.
