STILL WORKING LIKE BEAVERS,
Citizens of Sumter See Much of The
Candidate.

If all three of the candidates for
clerk of court are not elected, and they
are confident of this, 1t will not be
through lack of effort. All of the as
pirants, Messrs. Chambliss, Allen and
Parker, are working with will to
win, and ali have assurances of hearty
support. Three more deservedlY pop
ular young men could not haye been
pitted together, and no one will fore
cast the result of the election with any
degree of certainty. The primary on
Wednesday, March 27th, settles the
clerkship contest, and until then it is
anybody's race.

NOW LOOKS LIKE EIGHT CENTS.
Tumble In Price of Cotton Still
Continues.

Americas cotton men offered 81 cents
yesterday for the best grades of cotton,
though the average price is about 81
cents, as some of the cotton offered
now is more or less stained. There
seems to be no rallying point in the
downturn of the market, and futures
sag from eight to ten points every day.
At the close yesterday March contracts
touched $50, the lowest point reached
since last September, while May closed
at s. az. A few weeks ago both these
positions were hundred points high
er than at present.

A curious monument has been dis. covered in the dense undergrowth of .he so-called Brandhai. in the Upper Harz. It is granite block about seven feet high, resting or a stone pedesta. and on all iron tablet attached to It is the following inscription: Here. in the year 1747, the first trials were made with the cultivation of the pota. to. The German peasant of the time did not take kindly to the potato plant on it's introduction to the country. It had, however, a great friend in the king, Frederick H., wbo was convinced of its value, but who was obliged to use forcible measures to get the people of Pomeranla and Silesia to plant the bulb. The action of the Harzer's in voluntarily adopting the plant was evidently thought t-orthy of memo raal,

Hop Picking In England.

It requires q great many hands ana has to be carried through quickly. As soon as the time arrives the East Lon doners by the thousand give up thelr work and take the train to the hop ping. Then they have the finest time imagina ble They are Gdite free from any interference. No one watches over them. All day long they are out in the fields .shey are paid, and paid well, by t,a @asket Therefore they work havt the evening they have games ent , of their own devising. There is no lacy to watch the girls; no young university man good with fists let loose upon the lads; money is plentiful; sup pers are eopious; beer flows in streams; they dance and sing at their sweet will.
 The farmers. so long as they do no mischief to the crops and orchards, do not interfere. At night the girls sleep in one barn and the lads and men in another. When hopping is over, they come back to town. Like Bottom, they are transformed. Their checks, which were pasty colored, are now rosy and sunburned. They are no longer the children of Nle curb They have been adopted for the time by the field. How they get back to work do not know, but believe that in many factories the employers look forward to the hopping assertions and make arrangements ae- cordingly.-Sir Walter Besant in Cen tury.

Chautauqua Announcement.

The first meeting for this year of the directors of the Colorado Chau- tauqua Association occurred in Boul- der, Colorado, Saturday, January 19, with President J. L. Long, of Dallas, in the chair.
 Extensive improvements were out lined for the dining hall and other buildings. It was decided to make Sunday a free day, opening the gates to the public for the sacred concerts and sermons by visiting eminent di- vines.
 A splendid band is already engaged for the season; Gen. Fitzhugh Lee has been invited to make the Eourth of July opening address; and, from the class of talent already engaged and that applying for place on this years platform, it is evident that the high standard of the past will not only be maintained. but even improy- ed upon in the coming season
 The tried faYorites of the assembly will return for the 1901 assembly, and the new attractions are to be selected from among others of national repu- tation. The session this year will open July 1. and cloth August 2, last ing five weeks. 116

IN DARKEST
KENTUCKY

CORBIN, KY, Jan. 16.-A riot is in
progress here tonight as a result of the
shooting this afternoon of James Shot
we'll by Rollie White, and several per-
sons have been killed and injured.
Shotwell is in a precariouS condition
late tonight and is not expected to re-
cover.
The trouble grew out of the fact that
White had been paying attention to
ShotwelPs daughter against the will of
the latter. After the shooting White
submitted to arrest and was placed in
his brothers grocery store, where a
guard was placed over him awaiting
the arrival of the Sheriff.
At $50 o. m. a terrific explosion took
place under the grocery. So severe was
the shock that it tore the building liter
ally to pieces. There were about
dozen persons in the building at the
time. Several escaped with slight in
iuries, while several remain in the de-
bris dead. No one at this time can say
how many are killed.
Immediately after the explosion there
was rapid firing in the neighborhood by
unknown parties concealed in the dark
ness. After the shooting Susan Cox
was found dead near the wrecked
building, having been struck by
stray ball. Citizens are afraid to visit
the rioting district tonight and the
number of killed cannot be ascertained
until morning.

CONCEALED DIAMONDS.
An Alleged Cuban Merchant in Trou-
BILE at New York

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-United States
Marshal Alcott of the New jersey dis
trict has formally seized in this city
S17,600 worth of diamonds which were
brought into this country by Antonio
Ansenias without paying duty on them.
The goods We're found on AnseniaS' per-
son by United States customs officials as
Ansenias was leaving a steamer of the
Hamburg line at Hoboken.
Ansenias was not arrested but the dia
monds will be held pending a decision
by the Treasury Department. as to
whether he is guilty of smuggling. His
defense is that he is a Cuban merchant
and that he is merely passing through
this country on his way to Cuba. The
diamonds were concealed in pockets of
a large belt which Ansenias had around
his body and We're accidentally discov-
cred by customs inspector who hap
pened to place his hand on Ansenias'
back as the latter was leaning over a
trunk. There are 126 separate articles
of an appraised valuation of 1000,
which with 60 per cent duty would
make them worth $17,600.
