PROJECTION 70 PROPERTY.
Chief Bradford Offers Suggestion
to Those Who GO Away
During the Summer.

While With the limited force at his
command, Chief Bradford feels that
the residents of the city who 90 away
for the summer could afford some mea-
sure Of added security TO their proper
ty.
To that end he requests all resi-
dents leaving the city for anv consld-
erahle length of time to furnish police
headquarters with the number Of their
residences and any other information
that will be of value in exercising q
special care over the property and pro-
tect ug it against burglary. In form
er times an officer on beat. seeing
light 10 a house, would not have bis
suspicious aroused, but under the
present arrangement should the u.u
on the beat kEog that the occura':ts
of the tesider3e we're awey from the
city he could investigate any seeming
irregularity about the premises.
Tie plan of Chief Bradford appears
to be splendid one and the public
should cooperate with him heartily in
his efforts to protect property. He
gladly assumes the added responsible
ty and it is as little as residents car
do to hand in their numbers to police
headquarters.

There are all Kinds of Fools.

About o'clock last Sunday after
noon ]. B. Prevatt, lineman for the
Manning Telephone Company, created
somewhat of a sensation by putting
the contents Of a laudanum vial into
his stomach, and then went off and
fell into a deep sleep. Marion Smith,
colored, saw Prevatt drink the stuff,
and gave the alarm. After sometime,
the services of Drs. Geiger and Dick
son were secured. They made con-
nection with the victims stomach by
means of a stomach pump, which
brought up lot Of food, but no laud-
anum 1t was then discovered that Pre-
watt had faxed, what for, can only be
found in the mans peculiar manner
Of making himself notorious. What
gave the matter the appearance Of
reality was a letter he wrote which
was very despondent, attributing his
desire to call up central Of the other
world, being tired Of this life, and do
nestic trouble A few days ago he
spoke to lawyer about divorces, and
to some one else he mentioned his
family troubles. It was fortunate for
Prevatt that those who went to his
rescue did not know his fake game
sooner, had they, we believe they
would have resorted to remedy that
taking laudanum would have been a
sweet dream to it. He would have
been placed across barrel and sooth-
ed into a wakefulness that would
have for long time driven away any
thought Of drowsiness. Mr.. Prevatt
had better not try such a game any
more if he appreciates the comfort Of
a sitting posture when fatigued.-

WHY NOT CAMP HERE?
Sumter Offers Splendid inducements
to Soldiers.

The militia Of South Carolina will
10 into camp this summer, an appro-
praation having been made by the
United States government to defray
The expenses of the encampment and
to pay the officers and privates while
On duty.
. AS yet the place of Aacampment has
not been selected and it will be sew
eral days before a&Ndecision Will be
reached. Sumter offers as many in
ducements as any other town in the
State and the encampment, it is ar
gued by military men, should be held
in this city. Encampments have been
held in Anderson, Columbia, Green
vile. Camden and Charleston and
Sumter should be given an opportunl-
ty to entertain the citizen soldiers Of
South Carolina.
Sumter is we'll located for the next
encampment. The climate is delight
ful, the nights being cool and there
are no mosquitoes to worry the SOL
diers. Then besides there are several
sites in close proximity to the city
that could be converted into a splen-
did camp ground. There is an abund-
ance of good fresh water and the
markets furnish good things to eat
that soldiers are so fond of.
Columbia is making strong pull
Tor the encampment, but as yet no
decision has been reached, and if the
people of Sumter want ,ne military
encampment the right sort Of effort
should be made to capture it.. Sumte.
should send in an invitation at once
and delegation consisting Of military
men and business men should appear
before the proper military authorities
and set forth the advantages Of Sum
Ter as the place for the military en-
rampment.

MEETING RELD FRIDAY
Of Merchants, Bankers ard Farmers TO
Consider Warehouse Question.

From The Daily Item, June 20.
A meeting was held in the
Bank of Sumter at II o'clock
yesterday to consider the cot
ton warehouse proposition. All
of the banks Of the city, the cot
ton dealers and farmers were
represented. Hon. Richard L.
Manning was elected chairman.
A full discussion was held as
to the desirability and advisa-
oility of building standard
warehouses in Sumter.
A feeling Of general and wide
spread interest in the enterprise
was manifested. And the opin.-
ION is universal that great adj
vantage to Sumter will be the
result of the establishment Of
warehouses here.
There are certain questions
arising in connection with the
matter which the meeting con-
sidered wise to determine be-
fore attempting a permanent
organization. Committees were
appointed to take up these pre-
liminary questions, Obtain all
possible information and report
at a subsequent meeting to be
called by the chairman.
Should the reports of the COM
mittees be of a favorable nature
a permanent organization will
likely be made at an early date.

EARLY MORNING FIRE.
Residence of Mr.. w. d. Colciough
Burned to the Ground.

From The Daily Item, June Z.
The residence of Mr.. w. D. Col
rlough, on Salem avenue, was burned
this morning about o'clock and the
house and contents were total loss.
The fire is supposed to have originated
in the kitchen, but when it was dis
covered the whole rear portion of the
house was in flames. When the alarm
was given the hose wagons made a
prompt response, but little could be
done save to prevent the fire from
spreading to the adjacent houses.
The loss is estimated at $4,000 with
$3.50 insurance on the house and $500
ssen the furniture.
The house was owned by the estate
ssof II. Hardy.

A FEW DRINKS.
The Dispensary Sells More and More
Liquor Each Year.

The hot Weather has not decreased
the consumption Of ardent liquors to
any S1eat extent, and it is a good guess
to say that if money was as plentiful
with a certain class as during the cot
season, fully as much fire water
would be consumed now as cooling
beverage as is used in the fall and
winter on the plea that it is needed to
warm a body up.
The dispensers reports for the MOI tn
of May show the following net prof.:
Sumter Dispensary, 1,37C 50

time past has been clerking at Harris
cigar store, has accepted a position
.as night clerk at TIE Hotel Sumter.
The Ministerial Union does not ap-

record in opposition of Sunday pleas

Sewerage for Sumter is 8 necessity.
Those who are most earnestly advo-
eating it do not do so because they
think it one of the trimmings that a
growing and progressive town should
have but because they realize that the
public health demands it.

The time to buy a lot is not when you

The fish traps in the streams Of
Sumter county have about done their
work and fresh fish are so scarce that
they are seldom offered for sale on the
streets.
There is some probability Of the
Presbyterian College being removed
from Clinton and as there is no col
lege in this section of the State this
city would be an advantageous loca-
&Siun for the college.
The boy that is not the member OF
two or three Sunday Schools at pres
ent is not regarded as very bright by
his companions. This is the picnic
season.
The dust on the streets is already a
nuisance and grows worse daily.
Unless Sumter provides cotton ware
houses for the storage Of cotton the
market will be handicapped in com
peting with other markets that nave
these facilities. The cotton business
is in a state of transition and in the
future the warehouse is destined te
play an important part in it. The day
nf selling cotton at any price the buy
ers see fit to offer is past.

structing a New Railway
Line.
Manning, June "a meeting
of the business men of Manning
was held in the Court House yes
! terday afternoon to consider the
matter of joining in a movement
to build an Independent railroad
from Charleston by way Of Man
ming and Sumter northward to
conect with the Seaboard Air
Line Railroad.
On motion Of Major Louis Ap-
pelt, Mr.. J. H. Rigby was called
to the chair, and Major Marion
Noise, of Sumter, was called up
on to address the meeting. Ma
i jor Noises interest in the pro-
jected railroad from Sumter
northward is well known, and it
was his presence in Manning
that suggested the meeting yes
terday afternoon. Major Noise
responded to the call, saying
that Sumter realized the need Of
railroad competition and had
determined to build line north
ward to conect with the Sea-
board, with the view of either
selling or leasing to that road.
He said it was agreed between
the Southern, the Coast Lire
and the Seaboard not to build
new lines into each others ter
!! ritory, but there was nothing in
their agreement to prevent the
people in this section from build
ing road and then leasing it to
the Seaboard. He said that Sum-
ter had already secured the
right of way for projected road,
and since that has been done
and their determination to build
the road had been evinced, theH
have been approached by CAPT
talists with assurance of COOP
GRAFTON if they will extend their
road on an air line to tide-water
at Charleston. This he threw
out as a suggestion, WITHOUT de-
finite promise, that an opportun-
ity might soon be offered Man
ming to secure another line Of
road by investing a little a.o44cy.
There can be no doubt that there
is a possibility of great material
! development in this section, but
even now the amount of busl-
ness done offers no little induce
ment for competition in railroad
traffic.
Major Noises suggestion was
favorably received, and on mo-
ton a committee was appointed
to look into the matter and be in
touch with the projectors should
the movement take tangible
shape. 1t would not entail a very
heavy expense per mile to build
a railroad from Sumter to Char
lesion, on a practically air line,
and Manning would not be slow
in offering substantial encour-
agement to such a road.

WHIPPED HIS WIFE
And is Now in Jail Charged With Murder

From The Daily Item. June 10.
On last Sunday Hayward
Smith, colored, who lives on the
plantation of Mr.. Luther
Thompson, near Durwood, Shi-
lob township, administered to
his wife a severe whipping. The
neighbors did not report the
affair until Tuesday, when the
woman died. The authorities
were then notified and Magis-
trate H. H. Player, acting cor
oner, had the body examined by
DR.. Tarrent, who found several
bruises on the head sufficient to
cause death.
"A jury was empanelled and
upon the report of DR.. Tarrent,
found that the woman came to
her death from the effects of the
whipping she received on last
Sunday.
Smith was Immediately ar
rested by Deputy J. w: Hines
and brought to Sumter and
placed in jail to await trial on
the charge Of murder at the
