LADIES, DAY.

Stranger wins she Kegatta-Good Time
 Made-The Evenfng's Gala Scene
 Yachts DecoraHed-Musfc,F FfreROrks .,
 Ladies, Lanterns-ThOse Who Were
 There.
 Stiff winds blew up the harbor yesterday afternoon and roughly tossed the pretty little yachts as they waited to get first whiff of the coming contest. The sun, however, looked brightly down from July sky on the many fair ones who came to see their brave and brawny tars ride the sea, and the ladies' hearts partook of the fearless bravery and tried seamanship of their masculine friends. Boat after boat carried gay crowds of ladies from the club house to their yachts, and the face of the harbor seemed to smile with sud- den life as the brilliant throngs moved to and fro over the waters.
 The upper verandas of the club house were filled with the bright faces and gay costumes of the fair guests. Many more were present than on the first Ladies' day of the season, and the attentive yachtsmen made the time pass as lightly as possible for their light hearted friends. The start was almost half hour late and when the little brass cannon on the club house balcony sharply gave the sig. nal the yachts gave their canvas to the wind and gracefully circled over the waters. An- other gun and all turned their bows to the starting line.
 The regatta committee owing to the veloci- ty of the wind changed the course so that all the yachts rounded the turning buoy at Par dee's Bar to the windward.
 The first craft to sail down the harbor was the Niagara with her rail far submerged, while her topsail curled gracefully to the breeze. She, however, was not in the race. The Alsne, owned by Commodore Fred Hughes of the New York Yacht club, also accompanied the fleet down the harbor with Meme of New York.
 The fair sailors on the several yachts were:
 Wilful, Commodore 0. Cooper Clark-Miss Alice Merwin, Miss Edith Merwin, Miss Hattie hunson, Miss Emma Munson, Miss Gertie Perry, Miss Mabel Lucy, Captain Frank Andrews-Mrs O. ". An Grace Lincoln, Miss curtiss Miss Fannie snerrS rSs Miss GrunneIl Miss Andrews.

 Vidette-Captain H. G. Shepard Miss Ella Gran. miss, Mrs. George Hasley, Miss Addie Ashton.
 Fast time was made and the high wind and sea furnished most glorious sailing. Before the stake boat at the start was reached a sec- ond time the Wilful, Vidette, Hydros, En- deavor, Sea Belle, Jewel, Lucy and Phillis had dropped out of the race. A fair course was sailed and the boats skipped over the water in way to joy sailors heart. The data for those boats who stayed in the water

What Shall the Convention Do:

.Nr. E:laor.-There is some talk of the
County Convention, called for May 18th,
elec5ing delegates to the congressional and
judicial conventions, but as the democratic
voters OF the county have not been notified
OF any such contemplated action would it
not be unjust to them to do so? The princi-
pal business for the Convention is patent
on the face of the call Of the Executive Com
mittee, namely, to elect delegates to the
State Convention and new Executive
Committee. The new committee will then
shape tine party's future action and notify,
as it should do, the voters when the Conren-
ton will meet to elect delegates to the con-
gressional and judicial conventions? There
are many that will not attend the first meet
ing of their clubs as the notice is so short,
who would attend were they notified; it
seems to US that it would be unfair to them,
at least, for the Convention to rush through
any such unexpected movement.

appreciate the many varied advantages oe'

are alive to their work, who wish to increase
their proficiency, who wish to teach better
school, and who desire to enjoy the social
and literary feature incident to such meet
ines, will not fail to be in attendance. Ihe
expenses for weeks session are very light,
but the excellent lectures by eminent edu-
Gators, the presentation of modern methods
of teaching, school management, school
discipline, school organization, and the
"feast of reason and flow of soul" will
abundantly repay any one for his time and
expense whether he be teacher or not

Alive With His Brains Exposed.

Wewent to Foreston one day this week to
see Absalom Frierson, son of Bill Frlerson,
of Santee, who was so terribly wounded at
Greeleyville two weeks ago yesterday. It's
one of the most remarkable cases in nledi-
cal history, no similar case being on record.
The boy was carelessly loafns around the
mill. when he was caught by the gearing
and pulled up against revolving wheel.
His head was drawn against the wheel just
VIII ere the lead Of On iron bolt was project
inc, and before the machinery could be
stopped this wheel had possibly rerolved .
hundred times, the iron bolt each time tear
ing through his forehead: When released
from the machinery his head WAS a terribly
mangled object. The bolt had torn . pas
sage through his forehead, from the top of
his head to tie middle Of his nose, about
five inches long an inch and a half wide,
and On inch deep. The brain was exposed
! in this passage for about three inches by
one and q half inches and snail parts OF 1t
were destroyed The nasal bone except a
very small part was torn out, and cavity
an inch and half deep is made where the
nose should be. It was fearful sight, and
there is no parallel case on record where
person survived such shock to his
nervous system, to say nothing Of the wound
itself.
Frierson was taken to Foreston, and put
under charge of Dr.. L. W. Settles, who,
though having DO hopes whatever Of saw
ing the life Of the patient, at once did all
he could, and under his Treatment the boy
still survives. and says he will not die, but
will get we'll The boy has to be kept on
his back, for should his head be turned
face downward, a slight jar would likely
throw his brains out of his head. a fit OF
vomiting would prove fatal. Both the mem
branes that cover the brain have been torn
away, and the only hope is that nature Will
supply another The cool weather has been
favorable towards suppressing infamma-
ton, the greatest danger being from in
fammat;on or blood poisoning, either of
which would prove fatal. The wound ap-
pears to be healing, the boy says he feels
great deal better, and it is possible that ne
may get well He has about one chance
out of hundred thousand.
Several physicians have gone to Foreston
to see the young man, but none OF them
can suggest anv treatment more than IS
being done. It is Just one OF those anona-
lous cases, that battles books and doctors.

A Cotton Buyer for Manning.

Mr.. ". L. Lake, of the firm OF W. J.
Lake & Son, cotton buyers of Newberry.
S. c., passed through Manning on his re-
turn home from an extended trip through
Florida last Friday, and through the per-
suas;on of our advertising agent was IL
duced to make calculation on the advisa-
bleness Of opening branch Office in this
place. Mr. Lake sized up tie crop Of the
county from the data furnished, and was
not long in discovering that it will pay.
he has therefore requested US to say to the
people OF Clarendon his Office will be open
by September 1st, and he will guarantee
Charleston prices. The TINES has been
long advocating this long felt need,
and when it gets q man here who has the
means and is willing to pay the highest
prices we hope the farmers will bring every
bale of their cotton to their county seat.
