DONATIONS TO BUILDING FUND
Worthy Colored Citizens of Sumter
Contribute.

Among the very few cash subscrip-
tions turned over to the Times-Re-
corder for the Veterans Home build
ing fund are those of James W. Rus
sci and E. S. Richardson, two very
worthy and respected colored citizens.
Each gave one dollar towardsth the replac.
ing of aroof above the heads of disabled
Confederates, and the impulse inspir-
ing such generosity is a noble one.
Ofthe five subscriptions thus received
by the Times. Recorder, two come from
coIored people-men who understood
even at that time the cause for which
the Confederacy stood. Their dollars
and their kindly motives will be fully
appreciated. Richardson likewise
gave dollar to the Mckinley monu
ment fund, which the Times Recorder
cheerfully forwards.

PERRY's DOOM IS SEALED NOW
Americas Negro Will Be Executed
on Tuesday.

Within forty-eight hours Charles
Perry, of Americus, may have stepped
through the death trap of a galIows in
Philadelphia and, with his life, paid
the penalty of an atrocious murder
committed IN that city.
Such is,the information received by
Perry's friends here.
The execution has been deferred
once or twice within the past six
months, but Perry writes that it will
be sure pop this time.
It is stated that, in letter written
by him to relatives in Americus a day
or two ago, the date of his execution is
fixed for next Tuesday morning. Both
of Perry's accomplices will swing with
him.
Perry's wife, it is said, is still with
him in Philadelphia.
His colored friends here, it is said,
are making up a purse wherewith to
defray the expense of bringing his
body home. If this is done he will
have a great funeral.
The crime for which Charles Perry
and his accomplices, Ivory and Ster'
ling, are to die, the brutal murder oil
Prof. White, Philadelphia lawyer, il
we'll remembered in Americas and
elsewhere.
Vain efforts were made to have the
death sentence in Perry's case com.
muted to life imprisonment, many in

a petition to that effect.

AN EXHIBIT IS DECIDED UPON.
Farmers viii Represent Sumter at
The Fair.

Sumter county will be splendidly il
Iustrated at the Georgia State Fair, tt
be held in Savannah November 6.h tt
18th, and if the enthusiasm aroused
Yesterday increases to any extent few
counties will have finer exhibits.
Sumter can compete successfully fol
the prizes offered.
Her enterprising farmers know this,
and at the meeting of the County Agri.
cultural Society yesterday it was de-
cided to go in, and to wiz.
Mr., James Montgomery was select
ed to take charge of the county exhibit
and will also look after the interest OF
any who send articles to be exhibited
for individual prizes. He is eminent
~ the man to do this satisfactorily.
Already Mr.. Montgomery is at work,
and asks the cooperation OF the farm
ers upon behalf of the Society. For
the exhibit IS that of Sumter county.
Much interest in the undertaking
was manifested yesterday.
For some time past an effort to this
end has been carried forward success
fully, and now that the County Society
gives it official sanction and aid it is an
assured fact that Sumter will have q
most creditable county display.
Every citizen of the county should
feel interested, and give the effort his
hearty cooperation.

Slightly perfume all dresses, underclothing. writing paper, bed linen. beds-that is a new and de- lightful use for delicate sachet powder. A flat pad Ia used between the mattress and the lower sheet. sofa pillow, etc., but never sufficiently to become very noticeable to others.
 A violet scented atmosphere, for in- stance, makes those who are surround ed by its influence religious, affection ate and peace loving. Women of low able natures are always fond of violet. Heliotrope generally finds devotees among the dainty, neat and rather un- assuming dispositions, who dislike fuss or notoriety.
 Rose perfume Is most frequently used by warm hearted. imaginative temper aments. who are inclined to extrava- gance and have disregard of the more serious issues of life.
 Lavender numbers its admirers among natures with high aims. and with a love of detail and exactitude. Eau de cologne Is accepted by hon. orable and reasonable natures having high aims and ambitions. Lily of the valley Is used by women of imaginative temperaments who are both affe2tionate and demonstrative but ob:'tinate to a fault.
