ANOTHER LETTER.

Last Friday evening the young folks
had an Easter egg hunt. The fee was
ten cents, the proceeds for foreign mis-
sions, and prizes were awarded. Miss
Ethel Brunson won first prize and Miss
May Wells second.
Mr.. S. Leland Brunson left last week
to take one year course at the Or
angeburg Collegiate Institute.
Miss Anna Burgess of Stateburg re-
turned home this morning after
pleasant visit to the family of Dr.. D.
o. Rhame.
The boys of the town raised a hand.
some sum of money by public subscrip-
ton to equip base ball project here.
Our graded school team will play the
Sumter school on the 9th, in Sumter.
The Episcopal Sunday school invited
the Presbyterian and Baptist schools
to join them in an Easter egg hunt at
the rectory this afternoon.
The surveyors for the alcolu Railway
Company made their second trip
through this town today, prospecting
for proper route over which to eS-
tend their railway through this town
to the Santee River. The coming OF
another railway here will mean much
for the prosperity OF this section, Tor
the simple reason that business inter-
ests at this point at the present time
are at the mercy 70 the Northwestern
railroad and besides we understand the
proposed line will enable the people OF
this community to secure water rates to
Charleston in addition to furnishing an
outlet to competing railroad, namely,
Seaboard Air Line.
We note that the News and Courier
has taken fright at the announcement
by this correspondent that Mr.. J. }.
Cantey will become a candidate for
Congress from the first district during
the present summer. There is no need
for this state of mind on the part Of the
Courier because when Mr.. Cantey IS
elected the interests OF Charleston will
be cared for in an able manner. The
Courier seems to make much of the fact
that Mr.. Legare has the ''ear OF the
president:;'' we never heard OF Mr..
Roosevelt doing anything for Charles
ton or the State except the appoint
ment of DR.. Crum.

Editor The Manning Times:


The proposed newspaper enterprise
for Summerton has not yet material
ized. A good paper at this point is
much needed, and will be here before
long. Sufficient money has been prom
ised to build the cotton warehouse, and
it is expected that work on it will be-
gin at an early date.
The Strauss-Rogan Co., are going to
install modern ginnery with capac-
ity of one hundred bales day.
Several architects of distinction haze
been seen in Summerton lately. 1tlooks
from this and other indications that
there will be something doing here
soon in the way OF large and costly
buildings.
Formerly the advent OF a Slnsse
stranger was something OF an event.
Now dozen new faces on the streets
cause little or no comment. What does
this mean?
A good many building sites have
been put on the market lately by
The Summerton Real Estate Agency,
these are being sold pretty fast.

bismarck and the Ambassador.

One day the Austrian ambassador
to the federal diet, Count Rechberg,
received a dispatch instructing him to
vote with Prussia for a certain impor-
tant measure, accompanied with con-
idential letter directing him to induce
the representatives Of the other Ger
man states to vote against the measure
and thus defeat it. In his haste he
handed the wrong paper to Bismarck.
who read and returned it, with the re-
mark:
There must be some mistake here"
Rechberg saw his blunde1 and grew
pale and excited. Don't be disturbed"
said Bismarck. "You did not intend
to give me this document, and there
fore you have not given it to me, and
I am wholly ignorant Of its contents"
In fact, he made no mention Of it in
bis official reports and thus won Rech-
berg's gratitude. besides having him
henceforth ION the hip"

A picnic at the school house was
given last Saturday in honor OF MISS
Annie Chandler, the teacher. Mases,
vile, Turbeville, and Sardinia was Wen
represented. Dinner was announced
about ] O'Clock and the table 1alrly
oroaned with the delicious daintles and
solids prepared by the good ladies OF
this place. After few days stay with
friends. Miss Chandler will return to
her home at Bethlehem.
Miss Marion Hicks has returned
home from her visit to Manning. Her
report of the bazaar was as great as

Misses Addie Gaskins and Maude
Gregory, two OF our popular young la
dies, have returned home from Orange
burg.
Mr.. Editor,I agree with you that every
voter should attend his club meeting
on the 18th to assist in the election OF
delegates to the county convention.
The convention should be filed with
men who are not mere politicians seek
ing Office or personal advancement, but
our best citizenship should be there. 1t
is to be hoped that when the conven-
tion assemblies the sentiment against
factionalism will be so strong that
those who would want to draw faction
al lines will not have the termerity to
do so. Let the convention discuss the
various issues if there are any,the only
one know is the whiskey, even this
can be discussed without heat and with
out making it the sole consideration.
1t is the duty of citizens to take live
interest in our public affairs, but II
they do not turn out to the initial meet
ing OF their clubs they miss having a
voice in the party organization which
is very important.
regret very much that more from
this section did not attend the meeting
in Manning Saturday. The speech OF
Mr. Smith was certainly good one. II
we had Smith in Washington, he and
Bailey Of Texas would teach the senate
what real oratory is. b.

News From Sardinia.
Editor The Manning Times: -.

Editor The Manning Times: ~
1t seems as if the thriving little city
of Sardinia is not recognized a one OF
the metropolis of Clarendon County, so
I will call attention to some of the hap
penings in these. parts.
The young people of this place are
now ready to be introduced at all pic
MICS for ten miles around. They have
the reputation of enjoying chicken and
rice with pretty girls as a side line.
The boys have been cooped up all Win
ter and fed on green oats and hard
boiled eggs, until they are hungry for
a change of diet, though it seems to
agree with Bill and Mood o. K.
Mrs. W. T. Rose has moved to Sum-
ter where she will make her home. She
is very much missed in this community.
Earnest and Vida will do business at
the old stand.
The Young men of this community
have organized a debating society
which bids fair to be a great help to
the community. They have few i'm
portanJ subjects for discussion and 1t
will be treat to hear the silvery-toned
orators of Sardinia PROFOUND the ques-
tions of the day. So Mr.. Editor, if you
have any questions that you would like
to have discussed eminently ~ you can
submit it to the querry committee.
The site for the new parsonage has
selected and the contract is now open
to the lowest bidder. 1t will be built
on Parson Avenue that leads from Main
street to Factory Hill
Some our young sportsmen have
bought clay pigeon traps and have or
ganized gun club. We have some of
the best shots in the country, and with
little more practice they will chal-
lenge anything in the State.
Mr.. J. NJ. Player is now in the Baker
in6rmary in Sumter where he is being
treated. He has been in bad health
for some time, we wish him speedy re-
covery.
Two of our boys (Cap and Moss have
our sincere sympathy. They had their
hopes jacked up to sucn high patch
and now at the last go-round the pretty
school teachers have scunted them.
Cheer up boys you will never do any
thing for your country if you depend
on school teachers for your bettor half.
We have some very promising young
widowers in these parts and IF you
young boys should cross their paths,
wee be unto you. D.

Hogas Convicted and has High 5alled.

The work OF the court OF general ses-
slons has about been concluded; there
are some motions to be made this after
noon and a few appeals from Magis-
trate's courts will be taken up: the
court will then adjourn sine die. The
court of Common pleas will convene on
Monday.
The morning hour today was con-
sumed in the trial of Eugene Hogan,
Jr., for an assault and battery with in
tent to kill and for carrying conceal
ed weapon. Mr.. Jennings. for the
State, made his argument in the case
yesterday afternoon. II. D. Noise,
Esq for the defense, opened the argu-
ment this morning and was followed
by Maj. Marion Noise, also counsel for
the defense. The defendant was most
ably represented. The addresses of his
attorneys were masterpieces of elo-
quence and oratory, but, alas: they
were badly hampered by their clients
lack of legal defense. Solicitor Wilson 5
clear and forcible argument drove to
the minds of the jurors conviction with
every word. Nothing escaped them,
they lent forward in their chairs: and
were held in rapt attention as if by a
mystic spell. Their faces reflected the
verdict before they retired from the
court room. Judge Ernest Gary charg-
ed the jury in bis characteristic clear
and forcible manner, and turned over
to them the record on which to write
their verdict.
In less than ten minutes an agree
ment had been reached, and the jurors
filed back to the court room and TOOK
their places in the jury box. Tic de-
fendant had left the court house.
The verdict was read by Clerk Par
rott:
Guilty on both counts.
s:W. c.. Broughton. Foreman.
Hoean's attorneys gave notice of ap-
peal.
The defendant was called for to be
sentenced, but Maj. Marion Noise,
counsel for the defendant, stated to
Judge Gary that his cliert had gone to
dinner and would return Immediately
upon the convening CT the court in the
AFTERNOON. The Judge refrained from
issuing bench warrant on this assur-
ance of counsel.
When the defendant was called at
4:30 o'clock this afternoon he failed to
appear. Major Noise stated that his
clients father was in court and desired
time to find his son: he therefore NOV
ed that sentence be suspended until
later in the criminal session.
Judge Gary stated that had 1t not
been for his great Difference and re-
spect for counsel that he would have
issued the bench warrant before recess
was taken. He refused the motion.
saving that he would leave a sealed
sentence with the clerk and immediate
ly instructed the solicitor to prepare
bench warrant. This will go hard with
