Not Eager For Service In Cuba.

Spanish soldiers are betraying all in
surmountable aversion to a campaign in
Cuba, and desertions have been very
frequent of late This has led to the
adoption Of an extremely strict surveil-
lance along the Pyrenean frontier, and
all the trains running to France are
carefully scrutinized by the Spanish
gend;,llnes, to the annoyance and dis
comfort Of many Of the passengers.
Young men are subjected to u severe
examination, and these who are unable
to establish their identity or give Il sat
isfactory explanation CT the motives Of
their journey are compelled to alight
and are conducted to the gendarmerie,
where they are again piled with ques-
tions, all the deserters detected in this
way being at oEce handed over to the
military authorities This often entails
considerable delay, and in spite of the
watchfulress of the officials many young
soldiers still succeed in making their
way into France. London Telegraph.

THE DU DE LlSPED.
And he Likewise ETec,ual1y Disproved
Mr.. Hank II ,ompson's Theory.

-Mr. Hank IL iompSon'S Theory.
One day, III tic old days at Cheyenne.
when it wasastill the terminus of tho
great Pacific road, there arrived, all by
himself, a yo1rg man about 20 years
old, who had such a lisp and looked so
girlsh that the rough crowd looked him
over i'll establishment. It was Hank
Thompson who finally walked up to the
young mall on street corner and gruff-
| ly demanded:
Say, baby, are you lookin for your
nursin boltle?''
'Ihir, do you addreth me:" asked
; the young man as he Strengthened up.
F.; "You bet. Whar's yer ma and how
did you happen to get lost?''
Ny ma it'll home, thir, and I am not
| losth. You are very rude, thir. u
You are very rude, thir," Knocked
the terror as he beckoned to the boys to
close in and see the fun
1T theems to me, thir,' said the
young man as he looked the other over,
"that you don't like my lookths. -
mo, I donth.''
"And that you want to pick a futh
with me?"
"A fuss with baby. Ha, ha, har'
roared Hank.
''Thir, l can take care of mythelf." F"
Don't want any ma to rock you to
sleep, eb:''
'No, thir, and I want you to go
away before 1 hurt you. When I'm
riled, l thoot.
Hear him-he thoots!' shouted the
terror as he laughed all over. "Say,
boys, what is this thing anyway"
Wath you referring to me:" asked
the young man.
"Of course was. Whose trunk or
carpetbag did you escape from:'
''Thir, I thee thath you want me to
thoot you, and therefore I will thoot
unless you 90 away
He will t!loot! Ha, ha, ha! Some
body git some sugar and rag. Mebbe
he's hungry"
81 don't like to thoot, but I thee I
muSth, said the young man, and before
anybody realized what he was at he had
pulled out little pepper Of a pop and
sent six buckshot bullets into Hank
Thompson's anatomy. The big fellow
staggered about and fell down, and ev-
erybody thought he was done for until
doctor locked him over and said no
vital spot had been touched. Hank lay
with his eyes closed for long, long
time, but he finally opened them and
family asked:
"Boys, have bin shot Or what?''
eyes, you've bin shot, answered one.
"Who did it:;'
"The young feller that looks like
girl and lisps."
"Great Scott, you don't tell me!'

yer carcass, Hank, and you won't can
ter about for month to come. -
"And it was that feller?'

RAILROAD SWINDLERS.

Representing Themselves as Railroad
OfTicials-They Relieve Local
Agent of His Job-One Takes
Charge and Finally Skips With the
Cash and Money Orders.
Swindles of the most improved
kind, and crooks of the most unpar
allelled nerve, come to light every
day or two in the newspapers, but
seldom has there been eqaalled IN
this line the scheme of a pair Of
sharpers, brought to the notice of the
public BY the express compan es OF
the city Yesterday
Superintendent Agee, Of Mobile,
was in the city yesterday en- route to
Hollendale, Miss, on the track OF two
crooks, and in connection with his
visit to that town a Times-Democrat
reporter learned the following story:
\ person representing himself as q
railroad travelling auditor alighteG
from Georgia Pacific railroad train
a few days ago, at Hollendale, Miss,
little station near Greenville, Aliss.
He had with him a man who callel
himself J. ". Healy, who was an ex-
pert telegraph operator, etc.
The assumed travelling auditor
banded his card to the railroad agent
in the way Of an official introduction:
he then proceeded to complain at the
manner he had rendered his reports,
and finally decided to relieve him
under the charge of incoupetency.
He proceeded to check up his
accounts and to transfer the agency
to bis pal, J. ". Healy, both railroad
and express accounts, inasmuch as 1t
is joint Office. When this had beeH
finished, the assumed travelling aud
itor boarded train, left that place
and the Office in charge of his pal,
]. w. Healy.
This man Healy otficiated some
two or three days as the official rep
resentative OF both railroad and ex-
press companies, until he had le-
ceived money packages and collected
money on account of the railroad
company, and finally left, carrying
with him all the cash on hand, to-
gether with Southern Express mon
ey order book bearing the following
numbers, 343: Its to 343, 1S9, both
inclusive, and IL is supposed he will
undertake to negotiate these orders
for the maximum amount o! $50
each.
Healy is known in New Orleans, as
be lived here for some time, boarding
on Wells street. He is an expert op-
orator, and while here said lie had
worked for the Illinois central rail
road at Surdis, Paro.a county, and
Armite City, La. He is man about
.lU wears OF age, five feet two luches
high, weighs about 12O pounds,
wea,s Aeavy Jl0ck mustache and
when he was at Holleudale had on a
dark suit witt black slouch hat

Charleston had q gay time OF it last
week and at the same time she filed
her Golfers to overdowing. The
country people gave every evidence
of friendl;ness towards the city by
taking advantage of the cheap rail
road rates, and the cordial invitatieR
extended by the business people Of
the eity-by-the-sea. It jsthe wish OF
the country-folks te~be on good terms
with their cjsybrethern and we hope
asS the work towards this end so
well begun will continue until the
last 7estage of prejudice is wiped out.
Charleston is the natural market for
theproducts of the farmers of South
Carolina, and with proper efforts she
will soon regain all she has lost by
political antagonism. There is no
doubt that Charleston has lost heavi-
ly through prejudice brought about
bypoliticians; the politicians, them
selves lost nothing, because they had
nothing to loose, but business in
terests, which to succeed and pros
per, had to come in contact With, and
hold close communion with the breth-
ern from the country suffered, and
that greatly. The Young Mems
Business League made a bold start
last year to remedy the evil which
was lying across Cbarleston's path
to prosperity and they made con.
siderable headway; this year the
Gala Week Association made another
effort to extend the hand of fellow
ship and it was accepted by :se
ruralites who thronged the streets
of that gaily bedecked city with glad
hearts and smiling,faces andwhen they
returned home they came with lots
of empty pockets, Cbarleston's mer-
chandise and the best wishes for the
cities future.

IMPORTANT.
Teachers Association.

After having said what we have:
we fee! that it is altogether unneces
sary to say anything further about
the reasons for organizing a teachers
association.
Remember that next Saturday is
the day on which all OF the teachers
are expected to be in Manning at the
court house by u o'clock. II you
are interested, come the first time
that the second meeting may be made
more attractive by your adding to
the program.
To the friends of education, the
same cordial invitation is extended.
Let's make this movement sue
cess from the very beginning and
then there is no doubt about its liv-
ing.

Editor TIE Manning Times:
Pamela did herself proud yesterday
and one of the largest and happiest
throncs that ever assembled there
were en- the grounds OF the acadenl>
to greet and chesr our clishins cava :
", ana listen to the band and enjoy
the bar becuc.
The intensely hot, dry summer ha'l
at last dissipated the sheet Of water
that for several years has covered
this original parade ground, and 1t
was a pleasure 70 see our cavalry
agaiu upon this iine plaza of sixty
acres as level as sheet of water and
without il single stump or hole.
The squadron presented a brave
sight in tbeir handsome new nnl-
forms, with every horse handsomely
equipped with military brides and
clothes from Philadelphia. After q
thorough inspection Of the arms ana
equipments Col. Brailsford drilled
the command in every movement
known to the school of the battalion.
Gen. Watts, in his address, declared
that in perfect truth and candor, he
unhesitatjnsiy pronounced them not
one of the best, but absolutely the
best drilled, equipped and mounted
squadron in the State. He begged
them to attend the State fair and take
part in the big parade on Wednesday,
saving that as Il representative of the
State government he felt authorized
to say bow proud the State would be
OF them.
The command has voted to go
with every man and march around
by Statesburg aud Camden. They
deserve great crcdi: for undertaking
o SO wortuily represent, rs they Ger
tainly Will, their county at tue State
fair. The Colonel has to organize
his quartermaster aud commissary

,, hundred men an:l horses can't be
