Baking.
Powder
Economy

The manufacturers of Royal
Baking Powder have always declined
to produce cheap baking powder
at the sacrifice of quality.
The Royal is made from the
most highly refined and wholesome
ingredients, and is the embodiment
of all the excellence possible to be
attained in the highest class baking
powder.
Royal Baking Powder costs only
a fair price, and is cheaper at its
price than any similar article.

fine house set in a grove Of beautiful
trees and flanked by fragrant fields.
Mr.. Olinghouse is a pioneer Of Wads-
worth and came In advance of the

The ancients believed that rheumatism
was the work of a demon within a man.
Any one who has an attack OF sciatic or
in1ammatory rheumatism will agree
that the infection is demoniac enough
to warrant the belief. 1t has never been
laimed that Chamberlain's Pain Balm
would cast ont demons, but it will cure
rheumatism, and hundreds bear testi-
mony to the truth of this statement.
One application relieves the pain, and
this quick relief which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. For saletby

The RATE IS LESS
THAN WAS IN 1899.
Sumter Will Pay Less Tax Than II
Many Years.
COMMISSION MADE A REDUCTION
Rate is Cut From SO so per Thousand
Last Year to SO This Year and This
With Decrease in Values of $780,
600.

The taxpayers of Sumter county will
be gratified to learn that a very SUBJ
stantial reduction in the tax rate for
the current year was made by the
Board OF Commissioners yesterday.
It is reduction of scots. per 1000
from the rate assessed last year.
The County Commissioners met
Monday for this purpose and labored
long to the end of reducing the rate
of taxation.
A grave problem confronting them
was the heavy slump in the digest this
year, property values showing a very
considerable falling off from values as
shown by the digest for 1899.
But in the face of all this the com
missioners reduced the rate.
Last year the taxpayers paid 50. sc
per 81, 900 whereas the rate for this
year has been fixed at 80 even. And
this, too, in the face of the adverse
conditions noted above.
The specific rate for county purposes
is $50 mills and for the state 5. 90 mills,
or rate of less than one per cent. the
smallest in many years.
Sumter's commissioners cut even
deeper than did the state authorities,
the latter making a reduction of II
mills while the county board cut il
81 mills.

CoRRALED THE ENTIRE CROWD
Wagner Wanted Cotton Pickers And
Got Them.

The demand for colored cotton pick
ers here yesterday was greater than at
any time during the season, and re-
suited in an advance in prices among
the late corners. A driver of spank
ing team got in after sunrise and found
that all the available labor had been
cornered, Watching his opportunity,
he drove up alongside a wagon filed
with light hearted darkies, and was
told that farmer Blank, who hired
them, had promised 45cts. The wag-
oner was not present, whereupon the
other hired the entire gang at an adj
vance of 5cts. hundred and drove
merrily away, the owner of the empty
wagon making the atmospheric bright
cerulean hue when he discovered the
trick played upon him.

BULLS STAMPEDED
GRIzzLYS AGAIN,
Worst Rout of the Enemy Ever
Known to Trade.
A FEARFUL STRIDE IN FUTURES
While Spot Market Advances Firmly
Half Cent a Pound. -Americus
Paid 10 10 Cents Monday And Mar
ket Going Higher.

ETo the astonishmont of cotton men
here the market jumped nearly hun
dred points yesterday, beating all
records, and at the close the gain was
not only firmly maintained but strong
gains were likewise made in Septem-
Der deliveries, while spot cotton ad-
vanced full half cent.
It was stupendous jump, and the
end is not yet in sight.
It was believed that reaction would
follow the tremendous strides made
last week, but instead of a slump the
market scars higher than ever before.
Cotton men who had been in the
trade for years declared they had never
witnessed anything like it. January
contracts opened up sixty points above
Saturdays close, though this record
was clearly beaten by September,
which closed Saturday at $50 and yes
terday at 1880, gain of just one hun
dred points in a day.
This month made dash of 40 to 80
points on the closing call,
The monthly bureau report, issued
at noon yesterday, was not especially
publish" as expected, the general
average being 68 o., and the great
jump in prices cannot be attributed to
this source.
It is nothing more nor less than an
unprecedented demand for spot cotton,
and to what extent this may put the
market up still higher is only matter
of conjecture where the opinion Of
bootblack is worth as much as that
of professional. Eleven and even
twelve cents is talked here.
Cotton sold freely in Americus yes
terday at 10k cents, the highest point
reached in years. Tt may bring 11cts
or even 10 cents today, or it may take
tumble. No one knows.
