4 Youthful Burglar.

On the 18th inst the exceedingly unus-
ual crime OF burglary was committed N this
town by Alex Walker, q little negro about
ten wears old. He had been doing some
work on the premises Of Mrs. Matte Bur
CESS, but on that day the lady was away
from home spending the day with rela-
tive. On arriving home that night she dis
covered that her house was in much dis
ordered condition, and an Investigation
followed. 1t was discovered that some one
had cut the front blinds, raised the sash, and
effected an entrance; heG trunk, bureau,
and closets had been ransacked and pllter-
ed, the thief carrying away some pieces OF
iewelry belonging to herself and some cloth
ing belonging to little Eddie Horton, who
lives with her.
The next morning on entering the cook
room she discovered that the thief had
built q fire in the stove, cooked some eggs,
and helped himself to the bread and butter.
The matter was kept quiet in order that
the thief might be found out. On the fol-
lowing Monday q colored woman told Mrs.
Burgess how nicely Mary Walkers two lit
tie boys looked in their new suits the day
,etore at church. Mrs. Hurgess's suSpl-
cions were aroused, so she sent for Mary
Walker, and on inquiry found that Alex
had carried the clothes home and told his
mother that they were given to him by Ed
die Horton, which was impossible, as Eddie
was away from home with Mrs. Burgess.
No arrest Of the boy has been-made. and
it is doubtful if he will be, but the parents
should be taught Il severe lesson for recc!v-
ing stolen goods, and the boy should be
put in condition that his breeches Will be
uncomfortable for q month to come.

The Town Lot Owner.

The town lot owner is n somewhat pccul-
lar individual. He wants to sec the town
grow and its population increase There S
no doubt of that, for increase OF population
and business adds TO his wealth but as a
general thing what does he do to promote q
citv's growth Is he found at meetings
called to consider enterprises that will en-
ploy labor and develop the couatry? Not
often. Does he subscribe literally when do
nations are necessary to establish valuable
industries? For answer consult the sub
scription list. Does he encourage improve
ments by placing his lot on the market at
reasonable figures? Ask the would-be pur-
chaserS. Is he. as 4 general thing house
builder himself? His vacant property at
tests his Iackwariness in this respect. Inc
town lot owner usually relies on the efforts
of other people to enhance the value Of his
property If appealed to for aid will tell
you he is the poorest man in toxin. tie
will acknowledge that lie owns "a little
property" but will not give small portion
of that to something which would double
the value Of that which remains. The town
lot owner is not always pointed out rs one
of the towns cnterprising and publ!c-splr-
tied citizens. The people know him. IL

Grains from Sandy Grove.

SANDY GROVE July 20.-We are all about
through laying by crops but are suffering
considerably for want Of rain in this imme-
d;ate section. We hope however, to get ii
soon as rains are passing about. The
swamps are very low and quantities OF fish
are being caught. Picnics and fish din
ners are frequent.
We will have q quarterly meeting at the
new Free VIII Baptist church recently or
sanized near Johnson's crossing on the
third Saturday and Sunday in August.
AIr. w. H. Culry, Of Sandy Grove, will
open a private school near st. Johns church,
in Florence county, the 20th inst.
We are infor:ned that the Salem railroad
is progressing slowly accoua: of the
want Of hands. Only four miles have been
built We learn Mr.. W. d. McFaddin has
applied for the contract of cutting the read
way to the Pudding Swarlp road.
| am sorry to say our ln.il from Manning
is becoming more irregular. Mr.. Editor
what can be done to remedy this trouble,
and whose fault is it:
1t is disgusting to think or Governor
can scarcely make al appontmcn; or 4 re-
moval without criticism or probably taken
through the courts, but il will not hurt them
so much w!c., they get used to it.
We have had good deal Of sickness.

pcarcd the following: MIR. c. L. Emanuel,
OF the Fork, challenges any farmer in the
county to show I, finer crop than bis. The
farmer that does so Will be licensed 10

Last Monday morning Capt. L. r. Had
gins, Of Foreston. called at our office and
claimed that he is entitled to the license.
He says that a gentleman from Summerton
was at Foreston lately, and spoke OF III.
Emanuel's cotton as being the finest n tnc
county The Captain invited him to :t,1t :
look at his, and When they approached Ike
first field which was young cotton, tA:
Summertonian said it was good: then they
came upon the second field. which brought
forth an exclamation of praise. When they
arrived at the third field the Captain re-
qucstcd the gentleman to get out OF The We
hicle and to go through it, which he did,
and when he came back to the vehicle he
remarked, '.You have turned him down,
and turned him down badly.
Therefore, with the above showing, Cap
tain r. r. Hulsins, Of Forcston, is hereby
licensed to brag until some other farmer

A Reliable Assistant.

The poet aud The almanac-maker
agree that all seasonshave their signs,
but those Of spring are most active
and insistent 1t IS then that nature
throws off the lcthargy Of winter and
prepares 10 renew her bounties. 1t
is then, also, that nature attempts to
throw of, the impurities that have
lain dormant il the human system.
This effort manifests itself in various
ways-in the increased activity of old
affections, in the appearance of boils,
carbuncles, and other eruptions, and
in the various symptoms so familiar
to those who have suffered. It is at
this period that nature finds an active
and trustworthy assistant i'll S. S. S.,
which, in the work Of purifying the
blood and strengthening the system,
has proven to be the most perfect
spring medicine ever offered to the
public.

Strange He Did Not Serve Him.

One of onr colorcd citizens is experience
ing some trouble with his landlord, who
saws that his tenant is several months Ii ar
rears with his rent, and will Lclthcr vacate
the premises nor will lie pay the rent.
After several attempts to collect the rent,
without success, the landlord appealed to
tie strong arm OF the law, and Il distress
warrant was issued last "Wednesday, and
placed in an officers hands for execution.
As the officer. armed and equipped with
his legal document, was in the act OF ap-
preaching the colored citizen, al kinds OF
evil thoughts flashed through lis mind,
and it occurred to him that it often happens
that men are arrested and thrust into dark
and dismal prison cells by Just such Strange
looking officers, armed with similar looking
documents. The SIGHT before him was
gioonv-clankins chains, jails. pcnitenti;l-

his vision, and with his mind irelShted
with such terrible thoughts, ne became so
nervous tLat his pedal cXtreMltics became

would approach the faster would the color
ed citizens legs move, until he ana the oiI-
cer were both dashing through the town at

the growth so dense that tie constable gave
up the chase without having served his pa

Some time daring the night information
was sent the colorcd tenant. OF the nature OF
the document to be served, and he returned
home to await the further action OF the
court.

The suggestion made by the MANNING
TINES that several sub-alliances join IN
having a grand picnic, has been adopted
by Doctor Swamp and Oak Grove. Their
Joint picnic takes place next Friday at Mr..
Jeff Hol.aaays. There is no better way to
increase the membership OF any order than
by bringing the people together and ex-
planning the objects Of the association to
them. Hence at these gatherings persons
ought to be invited to deliver addresses.
These speeches would not only add to the
DAYS pleasure, but would also be a ay to
educate the masses on the important topics
of the day.
