The PicxPocKEr OF PARIS,


This play comes here next Friday and
Saturday nights, and one would infer from
the following press notices that it would be
worthy of good patronage:
The play Is = good one. and the company
equally 80. Miss Eugenia Florence gave .
most exec llent impersonation of Gertrude,
the peasant girl, and the Countess Vincenzo.
and fully established herself in the good
graces Of her hearers as an actress of unusual
power. The Marquis of Geo A. Hender-
son was a finshe piece Of art, showing .
r. marksble adaptation of the actor to the
part-or. perhaps the part to the actor
Mr.. Hendsrson's acting was so easy and
natural that one would almost believe it
was the Marquis himself who was on the
stage - Chicago Daily NeWs.
A fsirly good house greeted the "Pick-
pocke, Of Paris" at the Grand Opera House
last evening. The play is a good one

the ruined Marquis, who has descended 80

PIcnics, Politics, and Nonsense.

EDITOR MANNING TDNEs:-Some time ago
Mr.. Zone Eye" or General Speaker, in CIV
ine an account CT Picnic and Politics in
Sandy Grove" says, giving vent to his feel
ings, he started for the picnic at MIR. j. j.
McFaddin's. After an acute observation he
found that some Of the ''outs" were there
No doubt Mr.. lone Eye" felt that he was
out of his pew, for he was among men that
knew him too we'll to see with both eyes,
and fortunate for him he only had one eye, or
he could have seen politics and picnics in a
different light, but we excuse him as he only
can see one side.
Mr.. lone Eye" saw somebody from u
neighboring county with the wisdom Of
Solomon, but Clarendon ought to see her
aspirant and General Speaker" displaying
his wisdom and compare him with the ''long
nose" man and you would conclude that q
greater than Solomon was there. Acute OBJ
server hes found the record of so and '63 Of
the ..long nose" man and says his nerve
won't do now. Well those who know him
best will admit that he must have nerve"
or he could never be farmer, mechanic, or
eanizer, general speaker, I'll with lone eye. !"
Now if you don't believe lone Eye" has
nerve Just let him entertain you one night
at his home and see if he has not nerve
enough for anything.
If Mr. lone Eye" has not found the pres
ident of Sandy Grove club, he can find him
by searching the records of the outs. We
hope that after the convention Of the 29th
inst. Zone Eye" will be honored with a
permanent occupation in his native ele-
ment l. P

The State Democracy Will Not Split.

The Eceainy Record contains the follow.
ing: Although it has been kent very
quiet, it was learned Yesterday thar w. W.
Russell, who took such Il prominent pant in
the independent movement in this State
some years ago. came to the city a few days
ago and began to feel the Straightout pulse.
He approached a well-known Anti-Tillman-
ite, and said he wished to talk sense and
reason. He then made a proposition, rs
follows: Owing to the dissatisfaction the
StraightoutH felt at the notion of swallow
ing Tillman, he said, it seemed 10 him that
it would be better for them to put ont a
ticket and cndeavor to beat linn. This, he
said, could be done. He then said that his
party could carry sixty thousand votes in
the State, and proposed that they would
give the Straightouts these votes if the
StralghtontS would in return give their par
ty the Congressman in the 4th district. The
Straightou heard him through, and then
quietly declined to be 4 party to the
scheme"

Resolutions by Trinity Alliance.
TRINITY HALL, CLARENDON Co., $.

September Gtll, 1890.
At a regular meeting Of Trinity Sub-Alli-
ance, No. 90l, held this day the following
officers were elected to serve the ensuing
term: John S. Cole, president; T. ]. Cole,
vice president; P c. Cochran, secretary; j.
II. Tindal. treasurer; A. J. Tindal, chaplain
S. r. Bradham, lecturer;J. B. and Z. b.
Tndal, door keepers; W. l. Hudnal, bust
ness agent.
After the election of officers and the tram
saction of other business the following res
olutlons were submitted and unanimously
adopted:
WHEREAS we the Trinity Alliance believe
that the recent sudden decline in the price
OF cotton is due not to an overstocked mar
ket, bnt to the Sche,ning of spectators to
keep the price down until the poor farmers
have been forced to sell their cotton crops at
disastrous prices to them; therefore be it
Resolred, That we the Trinity Alliance
appeal to our managers in authority to de-
wise some plan by which the farmers can
meet their obligations, upon deposit Of their
bale cotton, without being forced to sell at
the present ruinous prices.
Resolved, That we the Trinity Alliance ap-
peal to the members of our order through
ont the cotton States to hold their cotton
crop as long rs possible until the prices are
remunerative to the farmers.
Resolred, That the secretary send these
resolutions to the Cotton Plant and county
papers for publication.

Sunnerton News.

SUMMERroS, Sep. l6.-Cotton picking
has been very much retarded the last ten
days by til, constant rains. and if it contin-
ues much longer the cotton will sprout in
the boil as it did two years ago.
Brock & Rutledge's ginnery is running
on full time 1t is the most complete ar
rangement I know OF. You deliver your
cotton in the hopper from the wagon; the
elevator takes it up to the gins; You drive
under the seed box. and your seed is all
dumped in your wagon; your cotton is
packed and delivered in your wagon: You
don't see your cotton after it leaves your
wagon unit! it is ready for market.
The c. S. u n. railroad will have tele-
groph Office at the Summerton depot in q
few days. 1t will be great convenience
for the cotton buyers of this place.
The Harmony Presbytery will hold its
fall session in the Presbyterian church at
this place, commencing Thursday evening,
at o'clock, the End of October. DR.. John
L. Easterling will deliver lecture in the
academy next Friday night, commencing at
o'clock. The Doctor is the only lecturer
Clarendon county can boast of, and all in
reach should come out to hear him. c.

SILVER, Sept. 16.-Now and then we find
dot for our column in the TINES. Our
daily mail facilities, which has so
closely allied Us to Manning closes
on the 18th. By this change our
Manning mail must necessarily take the

This works to some extent hardship to
the subscribers of the TINES.
The Connor Mounted Rihemen, COM
nanded by Capt. A. L. Lesesne. performed
their fourth and last drill required by law
on the 18th, having in line their full quotum

is to take place. The Hampton Light Dra-

ton. We expect grand day for Silver. A

The colored folks had much display to-
day, fixing up things. Hog, rice. lemonade,
and other eata bles were in abundance. 1t
has surprised Us to know what fine dinner
they could fix up. They seem to enjoy life.
They evidently deserve much credit for be-
havior where so large crowd were assem-
bled. While our would-be politicians were
assembled at Manning, devising schemes
whereby to obtain foothold, the colored
people here were massed in the pleasures Of
q sociable picnic.
The store Of Mr.. A. D. Rhame was bur-
glarized and robbed on the night of the
18th of valuable articles. Before Mr.. Rhame
could get out warrant for the arrest OF the
miscreant he left for parts unknown.
