TO SAVE TIME.
Breezy Paragraphs Boiled Down for
Brief PerusaI.

The following is a correct roll of
the commissioned and non-commis-
stoned officers of the Sumter Light
Infantry, as it now stands:
G. B. Yeadon, Captain; J. q. Minis,
End Lieutenant; o. L. Yates, lst
Sergeantt; P. J. Gallagher, End Serg-
cant: T. L. Flowers, Sd Sergeant; T.
NJ. Bradley, 4th Sergeant; VIM. D.
Shaw, 9Th Sergeant; J. W. Bradford,
lst Corporal; D. R. McCallum, End
Corporal; Gilland Fishburne, 3rd Cor
poral; Julian Wilder, 4th Corporal.
It is expected that T. M. Bradley
will resign as Sergeant, as he has left
the city. This will cause some promo
tions. Mr.. j. D. Minis has been COM
missioned paymaster of the End Regi-
ment. 1t is not known whether be
will resign as Lieutenant of the S. L.
l., or not. The duties of paymaster
would not conflict with his duties as
Lieutenan5 of the Company.
When the boys are in camp Uncle
Sam will pay captains S. per diem !;
1st lieuts., So; End ieuts., 50. 1st
sergts., 80c; other ssrgts., 60c; cor
pals, 53c; privates, 43c. This will
be in addition to transportation, sub
sistence, medical attendance, etc.
On account Of so much supplies being
bought this year the encampment will
not last as long as next year. a better
thing was never undertaken by the
U. S. government. It will give the
soldiers real taste of regular army
life on the field, and at the same time
train them for battles, skirmishes,
marches, etc.
The selection of the Isle of Palms
as the camping ground gives general
satisfaction to the boys. They will
have an opportunity to get different
diet than that from the interior, and
the luxury of the salt sea breezes,
and plunge every day in the briny
deep, will make them healthy and
enthusiastic. Hurrah, for Camp
"Clinch' Hayward!
The officers expect to have at least
forty men 60 from here on the encamp-
ment. The citizens hope that the S.
L. l., will make a fine showing, for
it is Sumter organization for the
pr0JecJlOn or Sumter clJy. iJ is some
thing to be called Sumter soldier.
One Of the most enthusiastic friends
that the S. L. l. has, is ex-Capt. T.
S. Doar. He takes a lively interest
in the affairs of the company.
The Item will have "war CORES
pondent" along with the boys who will
keep the 'dear ones" at home posted.
The general delivery window at the
postoffce closes at 8 O'Clock at night.
The carriers window close at $50.
No stamps are sold at the carriers win
dow.

wEDGEFIELD NEWS.
The Sad Death of a Young Man-Per-
sonai Items.

Wedgefeld. July 16.-After brief
illness, Leroy, the only son Of Mr..
and Mrs. F. N. Tryon breathed his
last yesterday afternoon. The funeral
services were conducted at their resi-
dence this afternoon by Rev. S. O.
Cantey, and the interment was at the
Wedgefeld burying grounds. 1t was
an unusually sad death, being so far
from relatives, their nearest relatives
living in Ohio, and the only son, who
was just entering into manhood. To
have ones hopes thus bllghted seems
hard, but the future will reveal to
them where it was best for the hand of
a kind Providence to strike them so

assistance possible. The floral tribute
was very petty.

The Manchurian Matter.

Washington, July 14.-Far reaching
in its effect on the -Manchurian ques-
tion was the conference at the state
department today between Secretary
Hay and Theodore Hansen, the Rus
sian charge d'affaires, who called, it
is understood, to bring important ad-
vices from St. Petersburg regarding
the ports in Manchuria which Russia
is willing China shall open to the
United States. This has been the
question that has deadlocked the ne
gotiations for some time. What trans
pired at today's conference can only
be surmised as both of the conferees
declined to discuss the meeting.
It was indicated today by state
department officials that the next few
days might bring to light important
developments regarding the Chinese
American treaty.
