Begged the Dead Mans Pardon.

A curious scene was witnessed at the
funeral of David Ruben, prominent
pawnbroker Ruben started in business
five years ago with A. Kline Business
falling off last winter the firm dissolved.
A few weeks later Kline rented quarters
next to the old place and started in oppo-
sition to Ruben, and went around ask
ing the latter's customers for their bust
ness. This so preyed on Ruben's mind
that he was taken sick and died of ty-
phoid fever, and his funeral took place
from an undertaker's establishment.
When the friends were all assembled, to
the surprise of everybody Kline walked
into the room, and advancing to the cof-
fin >hrlnbly begged the pardon of the
dead man for the injury he had done
him. Those present were deeply affect

Visions of a BROTHERS, Death.

A special from Richmond, Ind, says:
Some months ago Samuel Nutting, of
this city, was run down by switch en-
CINE and instantly killed. He had no
relatives here. but had a sister some
where in the west, of whom nothing had
been heard for years. Yesterday Post
master Jenkinson received a letter from
the sister, who lives near Davenport, Ia,
asking for information as to her brother,
and stating that she had dreamed that
her brother had been killed in an acct
dent and had felt worried over the mat
ter. so she determined to write and learn
if something had happened to him. Par
ticulars were sent to her today of the
death of her brother

The Safe the Kaiser Took with Him.

The Safe the Kaiser Took with Him.
Those who saw the emperor's luggage
brought ashore at Port Victoria will re-
member the iron safe which formed part
of it. In this safe was the large collec-
ton of jeweled snuff boxes, silver ciga-
rette cases. diamond breastpins, signet
rings. etc.. which the kaiser brought
with him for distribution among the
members of the queens household and
many other officials with whom he was
brought in contact during his visit.
These assorted gifts. which have been
cased up by the emperor during the past
two years literally by the gross. have
now been duly distributed, and have
probably-for such is human nature
caused more heartburning and disap-
pointment than delight.
Large as the stock was, it did not
prove quite large enough, and several
members of the kaisers suite were en-
gagged for some time at the West End in
buying a further assortment of trinkets
to serve as presents from the kaiser.
The German Orders which the latter has
distributed were brought over in a sep
arate case, and in quantity which re-
calls the incident of the Russian baron

Two MILES a Day by Rail.

Some illustrations of modern railway
speed cited before the parliamentary
committee on the cross country railway
bill merit special attention, showing
what can be accomplished when rail
way company makes an effort. A Bux-
ton coal merchant says that sometimes
the Midland company manages to con-
yey coal from Buxton to Chesterfield in
eleven to thirty-four days, and as the
towns are more than twenty miles apart
it will be seen that sometimes the coal
trains dash along the line at the rate of
two miles day. Once the witness
found Il birds nest in truck which had
been thirty days on the way, and he
reasonably believes that the nest was
built and the eggs laid during the
month Yet this Buxton merchant is
not happy and desires a change-En-
gineering.

The Now Silver Designs.

1T is not likely that another compe-
tition will ever be tried for the produc-
ton of designs for United States coins"
said Assistant Director of the Mint Pres
ton. 1.-THE one just ended was too
wretched failure. Doubtless it was
the first contest of the sort ever opened
by any government to the public at
large. The result is not very fattering
to the boosted artistic development Of
this country, inasmuch as only two of
the 300 suggestions submitted were good
enough to receive honorable mention.
So the affair has been handed over to the
engraving force of the Philadelphia
mint. which will produce the dies re-
quired according to such patterns as its
own sense of the beautiful suggests.
The designs for Uncle Sans coins
hitherto have been produced at the
money making establishment at Phila-
delphia where the dies for all the minis
are turned out. Anticipating a severe
popular criticism, the chief engraver
will do his utmost to render the five
cameo pictures called for as unexcep-
tional as possible, esthetically speaking
There must be a substitute of some kind,
representing Liberty, for the schoolmarln
on the dollar, the reverse of which re-
quires a better type Of bird than the
present buzzard.
Also the unprepossessing female, seated
upon cotton bale, is to be removed
from the half dollar, quarter and dime.
Plaster casts of the patterns evolved will
be submitted for approval to the director
of the mint and the secretary of the
treasury, and as soon as they have been
pronounced satisfactory dies will be
made and small change of new and love-
ly mold will thereafter jingle in the
pockets of the people.
No alteration is to be made in the gold
coins. because they are really exquisite
now, and could hardly be improved upon.
1t is realized that the money Of a nation
is expressive of its art culture. There
fore, lest posterity imagine the present
generation to have been barbarous, it is
desirable that our silver pieces should be
as handsome as may Washington

Infancy to Old age.

Nothing is more remarkable than
the fact that a medicine which is
powerful enough to cure the most
horrible form of blood poisoning can
be given with impunity to a little
child that is ailing; and yet this is
the record Of Swift's Specific IS S. S.
It is e germ destroyer, a purifier, a
great remedial agent; it is powerful,
and yet harmless; it is medicine that
contains no mineral poisons; all its
results are benefcent; it is COM
pounded from natures own laborato-
ry, and works on natures lines to
cure disease; it restores, revives and
reinvigorates the system; it may be
used as a tonic by the most
delicate woman; it may be
given to build up the constitution of
a little child, OF it may be employed
to restore to health the unhappy
victim Of blood poisoning. IN each
case it will work wonderful results.

St, Paul Gatherings.

ST. PAUL, June 15.-The welcome visits
of the MANNING TINES are refreshing to MS
and are received with high appreciatlons,
and through the jealous care and prompt
and efficient management Of Mr.. R. N. Nc
knight, postmaster, we never fail to get our
papers on arrival, so the man you alluded
to in your last issue, who reads others pa
pers, does not live at this Office. If they
read from this Office they must subscribe to
the paper or else they are put TO the trouble
to tramp around to the neighbors to find
out what is going on in the State-Tillman
Terrell, Coosaw, Sub-Treasury, etc. In
other words he must "yearn it.
Our little village is rapidly improving.
New buildings are going up and the spirit
of enterprise and push is the sign OF the
times. You will find on approaching our
village from the southeast large and wide
street, which we will call Broadway. This
street I suppose will soon be put in good
repair by the jealous young merchant, Mr..
D. Levi, who always offers the hand of fell
lowship to all true and enterprising men
who come this way. Withal. Mr.. Editor
with the good promises of our surroundings
and the energy of our village (like Ton" "
your genial quill driver after the railroad
train) we are determined to 'git thar"
If we have continued good seasons upon
our crops our community will make super
abundance of provisions and cotton. Our
prospects up to this date are as good as I
have seen for many years, and if the in
crease of products of the farm continue the
probability in the near future is the farm
er will have just cause TO rejoice after pass
ing through so many years of toll and hard
ship.
The Sunday-school of St. Paul Method
ist church will have picnic at Scots Lake
Oh Friday the 26th day of June. The sur
rounding community Of all our churches
ore very respectfully invited to join and We
extend to you, Mr.. Editor, and to Tom,
special invitations.
We are hearing and reading of third
party but the people of South Carolina
with few exceptions) care for no other
party but the simon-pure old Democratic
party. We were born in it, live in it, and
expect to die in it, and such will be the
short metre doxology at the gathering Of the
clans.
We have been looking forward with much
anxiety for the promised history of Compa-
nv I, 23rd S. G.. v, from the fertile pen Of
the efficient sheriff of our county. Write,
comrade, We will always bind in our frater-
nal affections the services of that grand old
army of the South both living and dead,
and we love to read of its history and its
daring deeds of valor, that caused the world
to halt in it's vocation to admire the gallant
little South and her battle flag, the starry
cross, and her familiar cheers as she crossed
the heaps of the dying and the dead to the
lair of the enemies stronghold. The starry
cross, the emblem Of the bravest of the
brave. I.

WHY the Roll is Not Published This Week
A Patriotic Appeal to the Survivors
of the Lost Cause.
By CAPT. d. J BRADHAM.

For fear some one may say that
YOU or I, one of us, have told fb, I
write to explain why the roll of Com
pany I, does not appear this week.
Mrs. Bradham is away from home,
and the roll is locked up so that I
will have to ask indulgence for anoth-
er week.
In the mean time let me beg every
survivor of the Lost Cause to be and
appear ct the court house on Monday,
9Th July next, at which time we hope
to organize county survivors asso-
citation. Come, comrades, let us cher
ish the memory of our beloved dead.
Surely, we will not consent to be be
hind other counties in the building
of lasting monument to the memory
of our companions in arm. If FL
lott Keels, Brown Manning, Rob't
Wheeler, Richard NJ. Skinner, j. r.
Haynsworth, W. ]. R. Cantey, ". S.
Brand, John S. Whitworth, John VIM.
Hodge, Harper James, J. H. Dingle,
and a host of others Of our sainted
dead were living and We were dead,
we think something would be done.
Let US cherish their memory and love
them more and more as time passes
on and as we one by one pass over
the river to rest under the shade OF
the trees.
Lately we have been called upon to
consign to the tomb some of our
number-Henry Lesesne, Charley
Witherspoon, r. S. Conuor, and 9th
ers-and we too will soon follow.
Let us be up and doing and show to
the world that although our cause
was lost we were right in our con7ic-
tons, and as time passes away and
we remain true to our convictions we
will have the approval even OF our
enemies, as was exhibited by a North
ern man recently at Georgetown at
the unveiling of their monument, af-
ter witnessing the proceedings Of the
day when he said, Il had rather be a
defeated Confederate than a victori-
Gus Federal soldier
The world will never understand
how it was that we were defeated
when they read of the battles of the
army of Northern Virginia. Twenty.
eight battles, twenty-six victories and
two drawn battles. Bob Toombs, of
Georgia, must have been right when
he said, 'We were not defeated but
wore ourselves out whipping the Yam
kees."
Come one and all on next salesday
and let US organize SO that we may
be prepared to assist those OF our
number who are struggling for a liv-
ing and tighten their burden until
they shall be called hence. Surely,
our comrades when they faced the
foe with US and sealed their devotion
with their life's blood on the various
battle fields expected this much OF us,
and I feel sure we will not be found
wanting.

EDITOR MANNING TIMEs.-Please allow me
space to say few words in the columns of
your paper pertaining to the illegal sale of
intoxicating liquors. I think, Mr.. Editor,
that something should be done to put a
stop to this trafc 1t is shame and dis
grace for any neighborhood inhabited
themselves to be imposed on in such q
manner as the citizens of Pucksville allow
themselves to be disregarded by certain
individual. They have allowed themselves
to be soft soaped in the most approved
manner for q great while and it is hoped
that something will be done to put 4. stop
to this accursed business. It has been
talked of for some time of enforcing the
law, but it has not been done. So far they
allow themselves to be put off by promises
to quit, "let me off and l wont sell any
more and such stuff, but, Mr.. Editor, that
is not business. [ say enforce the law to
the full extent.
Citizens of Packsville, look to your well
fare, make move in the right direction.
and wipe out this grog shop from among
you from time to eternity. Don't let it be
said that you die not do your duty and
allowed this unlawful and degrading busi-
ness to run on unmOlested. Yes, our Pac%S-
vile has already been stamped with the
stain of a murderous crime. Remove this
evil from among yoI. and don t let it become
a den tor gamblers, thieves and murderers.
Now, Mr. Editor, would like to get some
information concerning q trial justice
and his duty as an officer Of the l;.S. Is
it Lot his duty to see after all such law
breaking and try TO put down ali such evils
in the vicinity to his knowledge and
enforce the law on all such liquor dealer ?
Is it right for him to go and partake with
this law breaker knowing that he is violat.
ing the laws of our country? A Justice o;
the peace to see that every one has justice
and to enforce the law to the full extent
on all such law breakers and to take the |
proper steps to convict the same-js it not
Lis duty TO do this? Think of it, trial |
Justice to uphold such al unlawful act as
this right under his eyes. Woe be unto
such an officer Of the peace.
