A Strong Letter From Business Maa.

Mr.. Louis .Appelc, Manning, S. c;
DEAR Sna:-As I have heard nothing
of the cotton mill for Manning and
Clarendon county for some time, /
thought perhaps few lines in your pa
per would bring this very important
subject to life again.
A little over a year ago discussed
the matter with a few of our leading
business men and they did not seem to
take it or see it as I did. l have been
watching the course of events since
and the impression made on me is that
a first class cotton mill at Manning is OF
vital Importance to the merchants, far
mers and laborers of this community
and large part of the county. And
if some leading citizen with few thou
sand dollars would take the lead in this
matter have no doubt that the money
for this mill could be raised in short
time. Now we will 60 over the ad'
vantages and see what they are.
First, the Merchant. Suppose we
build a mill that will employ 500 hands
at so cents per day they will average
more), there will be 81. 800 in cash to be
spent each week with the merchants,
farmers, butchers, gardeners, drug
gists. churches, etc. This is not just
one week. but every week of the year.
Suppose The merchants of this town had
this mill now, in the distressing condi-
tions under which they are laboring,
what blessing it would be to them.
Now take the laboring class of peo-
pie. What would this mill be to them,
# they could get employment in this
mill, 500 of them, say with each to have
three others to support, 800 little
ones, old mothers, old fathers?
Take the farmer and gardener, who
have made nothing this year. Next
spring when they could come to the
mill and sell their truck for the cash
what a. blessing it would be to them.
In the fall the farmer could sell his cot
ton, or a. large part of it, to the mill at
fair prices. >,
Now take the land owners. It would
increase the value of real estate more
than double, which will be much more
than the mill will cost; this has proven
so in all Of the cotton mill sections;
And it will pay the stockholders a good
profit besides-if it is properly man
aged.
I do not write this from hearsay--1
have some experience. We work 50
white people in my mill-the Manning
Hosiery Mill-and they all seem to be
happy and living nicely. / am sure
they support over 250 people, while
without this employment some OF them
could not support themselves.
I hope this will bring this very I'm.
portant matter to the attention OF
every citizen Of Clarendon county. Let
them think seriously of it, and if they
will put their shoulders to the wheel,
Clarendon will have g. cotton mill o!
which every one of them will be proud.
Yours truly,
W. SCOTT HARvIN.

The Brsilssord- Richardson Marriage.

St. Matthias Episcopal cnurcn, sum,
merton, presented scene OF life and
| loveliness on Thursday, December 18th.
The occasion was ''Christmas Wed
ding" The principals were Mr.. Lu-
can Edward Brailsford and Miss Ele-
nora Norvelle Richardson.
The little house of worship had been
transformed into a thing OF beauty by
the friends of the bride. The bright
red berries of the holly tree were arts.
tically inter-twined with festoons OF
wild smilaX, which were draped ABOUT
the chancel and walls of the church IN
beautiful harmony.
The decorations about the chancel
were very elaborate. The altar was
pure white with delicate sprays OF ivy
gracefully draped about it. Above the
altar was q pyramid Of one hundred
lighted candles reaching up to the line
of the pointed arch. A bell of flowers
and evergreens was suspended from the
arch and about the bell burned clusters
of candles. The decorations were ar
tistic and beautiful and St. Matthias has
never before been so lovely.
The hour OF the marriage was high
noon, and as both of the young people
are favorises the building was crowded
with their friends.
At the appointed hour or few min
utes thereafter, just sufficient to cause
the interested audience to grow a little
impatient, the bridal party arrived.
To the strains of MenGelssohn' ia
nous Wedding March, rendered by
Mrs. Jno. C. Manning, with violin ac'
compartment by Maj. Il. B. Richard
son, the party entered the church.
The ushers, Messrs. J. W. Rigby and
Shannon Lining first entered. Then
came the bridesmaids and groomsmen,
as follows:
Miss Hattie O. Simons OF Charleston,
with r. c. Richardson of Fulton.
Miss Mayme Richardson of Fulton,
with Murrette Mouzon of Manning.
Miss Taisie Manning of Sumter, with
Willie Gordon Belser of Columbia. =,
Miss Irene Brailsford OF Richmond,
with Thomas G. Richardson OF Panola'
Miss Marguerite Tindal of Fielder,
with H. B. Richardson, Jr., OF Fulton.
n IS Maude H. Brock Of Pamela, with
A. H. Boykin of Camden.
Miss Katie Anderson of Summerton,
with S. A. Harvin of Sumter.
Miss Henrietta Brailsford OF Camden,
with William Nj. Richardson OF Orange
burg.
Miss Elenora Richardson of Fulton,
with Edward Haynesworth OF Sumter
Miss Lizzie Boykin of Camden, with
James NJ. Brailsford of Sumter.
Next came the bride with her Maid
of Honor, Miss Susan Richardson, and
the groom with his best man, Mr.. J. NJ.
Richardson, Jr., of Pamela.
Beneath the bell the couple took their
place and as ''Oh. Promise Me-" was
softly played, Rev. H. H. Covington
performed the ceremony.
The bridesmaids wore gowns Of rich
crimson organdie, Gainsboro hats, black
suede gloves, black slippers, and carried
lovely punches of holly tied with
streamers of white satin ribbon.
The maid of honor was gowned IN
white organdie with crimson stock and
belt, Gainesboro hat and carried a spray
of holly tied with crimson ribbon.
The bride was loveliest of all in her

with net, trimmed with pear. and satin

She carried white carnations and ferns.

gotten all he could, he gave each pur-

NORTHWESTERN DEPOT COMMENCED,
I Will be Pushed to Completion by November
|, 1901,

Work is in progress on the new
Northwestern depot, which is located
on the east side of their track lust
north OF Cranberry street. The build
ing will be two story frame Struc-
ture 2OXS1 feet and II inches. 1t will
rest on a stone foundation which
reaches from four feet beneath the
ground to 13 inches above the railroad
grade. A slate roof will cover the
building and at either end of the
structure covered platforms will
extend along the track-one 20 feet in
length and the other 80 feet in length
the width of the depot. A water tank
is being constructed about eight RODS
north OF the depot. This frame depot
is not the magnificent $4,000 brick
structure promised US by Promoter J.
5. Pennifill when he was addressing
the city council on the subject of
granting that road a right of way
through the city, but probably even
railway promoter should not be taken
too seriously when his excited imagin-
alton is picturing forth the future
growth and operations of his company.
The depot will be neat, new and
natty and undoubtedly superior to
anything of the kind in the city today
We shall have to be satisfied with it.

The Reuter- Concert.

Grand Rapids has been said to be an
unappreciative city of anything
approaching the classics in music, but
the great audience which assembled
at the Opera House last Thursday
evening to hear that high-classed
artist, Jacob Reuter-, of Wausau, in
his wonderful manipulation OF the
violin in the most difficult passages of
music, give the falsehood to such an
assertion. And they listened, too,
with wrapt attention to all the var
ing chords of soul-inSpiring symptom
les that flowed from his violin under
his magic touch, and were charmed
with his work throughout. The con-
cert was one of the highest classed
and most successful entertainments
the people of this city have enjoyed
this year. The singing of Mrs. f. W.
KickbuSh was equally well received,
and Miss Bertha Trevitt's selections
were heartily encored.
We understand that there is a
movement on foot to organize a violin
class in this city with Mr.. Reuter- as
instructor, and if sufficient encourage
ment is given he will undertake that
work here A. 2. Hirzy of the east
side is taking the matter in charge
and those desiring to join the class
had best to see him to obtain further
particulars.

Still a Little Hestile.
NTarshtield News.

MdTSIlelu news.
The Grand Rapids Reporter treats
lightly the report of the tax commits
sion, and although it infers it was
high time for commission, it cannot
refrain from referring to those from
this city who asked for the commits
sion as the "Marshfeld kickers." So
far as Marshfield is concerned it has
every reason to feel pleased with the
result. This city maintained that
there was great inequality in values
and proved it. This city was not
looking for glory, but for Justice. ~
We are pleased with the assurance
that Marshfield was so disinterested
in the matter. Looking only for
justice that city got it in great
chunks-sixty odd dollars in remitted
taxes. But justice fell heavily upon
that poor town of Lincoln, adjoining
Marshtield-S6O,O 900 increase in valua-
tion. To be dubbed "kickers" is by
no means an ignominious distinction.
The greatest good in the world is often
done by the "kickers," sometime
unwittingly. as we are inclined to
believe was the facts in this case.
