Mr.. Frank S. Sutton, manager of
Union Club, Pittsburg, Pa, was in the
city a few days last week, and met
many old friends and made the ac-
quaintance of many new ones. He left

Iuuieration Convention.

In response to the call OF Hon. G. NJ.
Davis for corention to send delegates
to the State convention which convenes
next Tuesday, q number OF gentlemen
representing varied interests met in
the court house last Monday and after
being called TO order by Senator Davis,
who explained the purpose of the meet
ing. MIR. J. D. Rutledge of Summerton
was made chairman and Mr.. Louis Ap-
pelt secretary.
After discussing the needs OF secur-
ing good class of immigrants the fol-
lowing gentlemen were elected to rep
resent Clarendon at the State conven-
ton, with authority to select their own
alrernates in case they find it impossi-
BILE to attend:
D. W. Alderman, Alcolu.
Rev. r. \. Sublett. Summerton.
". D. Gamble, New Zion.
J. E. Tindal, Fielder.
It will be noted these gentlemen rep
resent the various sections, and each
and everyone Of them are largely in
terested in the development OF the
country as all Of them are men OF prop
erty. and whatever they do for the
country at large can be safely set down
as having been done on business prln,
ciples. We hope each of these gentle
men who have been selected will go.
and thus have Clarendon represented
by good, strong, substantial citizens.

Tom Leitch.

The protracted meeting now in pro
gress in the Methodist church is doing
good: its methods are being criticized,
and this is a healthy sign. We have
heard expressions like this Il don't
Hike Mr.. Leitch's style of preaching
that man is too rough, his structures
are TOO severe. why that man is vul.
gar he speaks OF women standing on
their hind legs, and OF men IS old
frauds and rascals" etc. We have
attended several of the meetings and
have reached the conclusion that Mr..
Leitch's methods and style will have
the effect of making scars on the con
sciences Of some who have been posing
as very holy men," but whom the
world has known to be hypocrites OF
the first water. Mr.. Leitch pounds
heavy because he is L Judge of human
nature, and he has discovered he has
thick skulled callous hearted material
to work upon Asa rule we are aversed
to hearing uncouth expressions in 4
church but not one expression has come
from the lips OF Mr.. Leitch which in
our opinion is unwarranted He calls
men "old frauds" ana they are, if they
profess piety, when they lie, cheat and
steal. He calls men ''Scoundrels. and
and they are. when they profess reli-
eion. and are known TO be Of rotten
chastity. He refers to ''snagglet!-tooth-
gossipy-women. and they are, when
they profess religious, and go about
breeding all kinds OF mischief among
the neighbors. by circulating scandals
and CARRYING news. ii the man is tel
ling the people what ais them, and
points out the remedy, we see nc reason
to censure, but can find great reason to
commend him. \ doctor is called TO q
patient, he diagnos' the case, and pro
nounces it ''leprosy," is he to De con-
demned because he has discovered a

warning of such q man; the aliurlnS
whisperings of the Devil who is ever
ready to build sentiment agains5 man
who is interfering with his business, OR
who is endeavoring to entice away those

Go out to hear Rev. TON" Leitch, he
cannot hurt you. and if by some express
sion YOU are shocked, 1t IS an electrlc
shock. and it may have the effect OF

whom we know, although raised in a
religious atmosphere, have no more
appreciation of the meaning OF religion
than goat, we become sickened and
feel like setting dozen "Ton" Leitch's s
upon him, just as a hunter sets q pack
of hounds after fox. Stop cavillng
and listen to the man, and if you Will
not listen then stay away and keep
Your mouth shut, which will at least
keep you from exposing your unworthl-

This will give the citizens of Manning

ing their eyesight tested FREE by one
of the most removed as well as reliable
Opticians in the United States:
MIR. Hawkes. has all the modern ap-
pliances for the scientific adjustment OF
Spectacles and Eyeglasses to the eye:
There is no Optician in the United
States who snjoys the confidence OF the
people more than Mr. Hawkes.. His
name is a familiar word throughout a
section of the country inhabited by over
twenty-five millions OF people. MIR.
Hawkes. has probably fitted glasses to
the eyes OF more people of national ana
international fame than any other Op-
tician living. His wonderful success IS
due To his superior Crane OF glasses,
and TO the confidence the people have
in his ability as a practical Optlclan.
This firm was established in 1870, near
ly thirty years ago.
Call early as he will positively re-

A Fake Scheme Exposed.

To All Agents:
quote below copy of communication
received from Mr.. E. f. Macleod,
Chairman, Western Passenger Assocla-
ton:
- new swiadle is being perpetrated
by what are known as floating brokers,
namely, those making large meetings
going about from City to City
The scheme is as follows: The brok-
er opens shop in a City where there
are a good mang eXcurslonlsts coming
in: he usually has some correspondent
in Mexico, or some bank that handles
Mexican money, and through this meth
cd obtains three or four hundred dol
lars worth of Mexican money which he
secures for fifty cents on q dollar or
even shade less, and when the farmer
or sucker as he is called, comes into
the Office to buy a ticket he gives him
this money in change"
ssAs an illustration. say a person
came into Chicago from Joliet on a
round trip excursion ticket and wanted
to go to Kankakee on visit. He drop
ped in one of those brokers who made
a rate of half or even less than the reg
ular fare, which would probably be
about sl.00, if the passenger handed
him a ten dollar bill he would give him
five silver dollars and four Mexican dol
lars in change, placing the American
money on top: the purchaser would IN
all probability see that he had the cor
rect change, but would not notice the
Mexican money, as it looks like ours,
and nc the Mexican money is worth
half of ours the broker would make 9
profit of 50 90 on the money itself"
'.This scheme was worked in Chicago
! and is now being worked in Kansas CT
ty by two brokers, and it is said thai
over $1,000 worth Of Mexican money
has been floated in that City, and sstll
being practiced."

GRAY SILvER'S HOME BURNED.
GOES UP IN SMOKE "WEDNESDAY
AFTERNooN.
Nothing saved from shc Building Ex.
cept Few Articles Was
Insured

The two-story frame house owned
and occupied bv Mr.. Gray Silver, the
well-known stock dealer, which situ-
ed near Inwood, caught fire Wednes :
day afternoon from defective flue, and
at 0 clock the building was heap
of smoking ruins.
Almost everything in the house was
DESTROYED, Mr.. Silver saving nothing
bat few articles of wearing apparel
and some furniture.
Mr.. Silver. his mother and sister
were at home when the blaze was dis
covered, and determined effort was
made TO save their home. Twice he
thought he bad the fire under control,
but each time it broke out in another
place, and finally got beyond his
power TO check it with the limited
means at hand.
No one was injured. The loss will
be about 1913, 600, partly covered by in,
surance.
