we're published Thursday Prince Won
Buelow, as chancellor of the empire
and a minister Of Prussia, declares
that the accession Of the Duke of
Cumberland to the throne Of the duchy
Is out of the question. as the duke is
still anti-Prussian in order to gain the
throne of Hanover. The two letters in
dictate that Prussia. In accordance
with the imperial bundesrath, is de-
termined not to allow the Duke of
Cumberland or his son to accede to the
throne of the duchy.
The diet of Brunswick on Septem-
Der 25 adopted a resolution asking
Prince Won Buelow to take suitable
steps to settle the controversy over
the crown of Brunswick The chan

peror William as king of Prussia,
Prince Albrecht of Prussia, the last
regent Of the Duchy of Brunswick,
died September 13. The duke of Cum
berland, son of George l. of Ham
over, cousin of King Edward and a
general in the British army, is the
rightful heir of the last duke of
Brunswick, but, having refused to
comply with the conditions which
Prussia attached to his succession,
Emperor William appointed the late
Prince Albrecht as regent of the
duchy. The Duke of Cumberland
promised his father on his death bed
never to surrender his rights to the
throne Of Hanover.

Mrs. Pinkham took great interest
In the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so

all kinds; so, if we but take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-

LOOSE TEETH
Made Sound by Eating erape-Nuts

Proper food nourishes every part of
the body, because Nature selects the
different materials from the food we
eat, to build bone, nerve, brain, mus
Gle, teeth, etc.
All we need is to eat the right kind
of food slowly, chewing it velour
digestive organs take 1t up into the
blood and the blood carries 1t all
through the body, to every little nook
and corner.
Grape-Nuts good for loose teeth?"
you'd probably say, No. don't see
how it could be" But woman in
Ontario writes:
For the past two years have used
Grape-Nuts Food with most excellent
results. 1t seems to take the place
of medicine in many ways, builds up
the nerves and restores the health

firing soothes my nerves and gives

A STRANGER DEAD.
j. j. Hennessy, a Travelling Printer
and Linotype Operator, Found Dead
By the Roadside.

From the Daily Item July u.
J. J. Hennessy, a linotype operator
who drifted into Sumter about
month ago and has been working
few DAYS at a time as a substitute op-
orator in this Office since his arrival,
was found dead near the r. NJ. Pitts
place in the Jordan neighborhood this
morning by Mr.. John Burkett. He
was lying under a tree snort distance
from the road with his coat folded
under his head, and when first seen
was thought to be sleeping. When it
was discovered that he was dead, Cor
oner Flowers was notified and an in
vestigation was made. DR.. II. NJ.
stuckey, who examined the body,
made the following statement over his
signature:
seThis is to certify that I have this
day examined the dead body Of j. j..
Hennessy, and L found no marks of
external violence on his body. I found
him lying on his back without coat.
the coat was under him, and from all
external signs j would say he laid
down to rest. It is my opinion he
died from natural causes
Hennessy was a man apparently
about forty years old, but as he was a
physical wreck from the excessive use
Of LIQUOR, it was hard to determine
his age with any degree. Of certainty.
Since he has been in the city he has
been drunk the greater part Of the
time and was not able to, work except
at intervals. He was last seen at this
Office Saturday afternoon when he
came in to draw pay for the work done
last week.
He came to Sumter from Columbia,
but his home is; supposed to have been
Pittsburg, Pa, as a working card
of the Pittsburg Typographical union
was found in his pocket.
His body was taken charge Of by
the Craig Furniture Co., at the re-
quest Of the Union printers in the
city, and it will be given decent in
terment if nothing is heard from
Pittsburg in reply to a telegram sent
this morning.

The Atlantic Coast Line and South
ern Railways have agreed to close
their freight warehouses at S o'clock
o. m. instead Of 6 as heretofore, and
no freight will be delivered or received
for shipment after o'clock. The
closing hour in all cities is said to be
S o'clock and the determination to
close at that hour in Sumter was
reached after careful consideration.
The railroad officials desire to extend
every possible accommodation to the
public and to do everything within
their power to facilitate and expedite
the dispatch of business, and if it was
thought that the closing of the ware
houses at o'clock would seriously
inconvenience their patrons or inter
fere in anyway with business the
warehouses would not be closed at
that hour.

SHOT HIS SISTER.
While on Spree Olander Brunson
Commits Murder.

Olander Brunson, a negro from the
Shannon Town neighborhood, got on
drunken spree Sunday afternoon
and accidently killed his sister Mary
A number OF negroes had assembled
at the home of Orlander for services
on Sunday and from the condition OF
the occupants of the home after the
homicide they were evidently drinking
heavily. Olander went to his trunk for
the purpose of getting more whiskey,
and at the same time took out his re-
volver. By some unaccountable means
the pistol was discharged while in the
hands of the owner, and the ball en-
tered the back of Mary Brunson, his
sister, and passed through her
body. She ran into the yard and fell
in an unconscious condition. She was
then removed to the house, where she
died in about 25 minutes. Brunson
has been arrested.

SMALL POX WARNING.

Health Officer Reardon Gives Notice
OF Case and Makes Suggestions.
There is case Of. small pox
in Epperson's Hundred. There are a
number Of colored servants from that
section working out. Also good deal
Of washing done there for families.
The health officer says that is safer. for
all parties to withhold washing from
that section (Epperson's Hundred)
until after further notice from the
health depart tment, and to see that all
servants are thoroughly vaccinated
who live in that section. Colored
nurses have teen taking children in
there before It was announced that
there was any smallpox, and mothers
should be careful to see that
nurses do not go in that neighbor-
hood. The case is under quarantine
and the inmates of the other houses
cannot occur, owing to the fact that
our population is kept vaccinated,
nevertheless sporadic outbreaks may
occur as long as any unvaccinated
persons are in the city. The case

PosroFFICE SITES.
Statement of Methods Employed by
the Treasury Department in Secur-
ing Sites for Federal Buildings.

Whenever an Act Of Congress au-
thorize the acquisition Of a site for
a proposed public building-whether
by purchase or gift-the treasury de-
partment invites, through an adver-
tisement inserted in a local newspaper,
bids for the sale, or propositions OF
donation, and directs that the same be
submitted to the Secretary OF the
Treasury at Washington. This adver-
tisement gives such information as to
the approximate dimensions OF the
site required and the general condi-
tions and requirements as will enable
intelligent preparation and submission
of bids or offers.
The bids and offers obtained in this
way are opened at the Treasuray De-
partment in Washington at the time
stated in the advertisement, and as
soon thereafter as practicable an agent
Of the department is sent to make a
personal examination Of the properties
offered, and upon this report, together
with representations in writing from
other sources, the Department makes
selection, conditioned, nevertheless,
that the tile to the property be ap-
proved by the attorney-general. When
the land is thus acquired on which
buildings are situated which are re-
served by the party selling, notice to
remove the same is given after land
has been actually acquired and title
approved.
! Whenever the department is unable
to obtain an acceptable site at rea-
sonable price in the manner above
outlined, it frequently makes selection
and authorizes the Department Of
Justice to begin and prosecute con-
demnation proceedings in which the
price to be paid is judicially deter
mined.
AS soon as practicable after the ac-
ouisition of the site, plans for the pro-
posed building are prepared and
contract let for the construction there

THE MANNING KICKERS.
The Unjustiiable Charge That the
Umpire Robbed Them Out of the
Games in Sumter.

From the Daily Item July Is.
The Manning papers are charging
that the Manning baseball team was
robbed by the umpires in the games
played here this week. So far as we
are informed neither of the editors of
the Manning papers witnessed the
games and their charges are, we pre-
sun:e, based on hearsay. The writer
witnessed but two Of the games, those
played Monday and Tuesday. On
Monday there was a great deal
Of dissatisfaction expressed on the
grand stand and bleachers with the
decision Of the umpire, both Manning
and Sumter people asserting that
wrong decisions were made. If eth
especially in calling balls on the pitch
er that appeared to spectators to be
directly over the base. Manning nev-
er had a chance to win the game and
but for Buesse's home run would not
have scored. In the Tuesday game
the umpire was changed and Mr..
Burroughs who has umpired number
of games with other teams and given
satisfaction, was asked to umpire at
the personal request Of Manager

man to the bat being put out Of the
game for cursing the umpire when he

Odiorne made use of profane Ian

ager Dwyer and told him that odiorne
would be put out Of the game if he
did not stop cursing. Odiorne ad-
| vanced toward Burroughs saying that
he lied if he said he had cursed. They
! came together and a few blows passed
| before they could be separated
Odiorne was then ruled out Of TIE
game. The game proceeded without
incident until a Sumter batter hit a
fair bali over third base. Buesse in
attempting to field it failed to do so
and the ball reboundeds from his
| hands and fell just without the foul
line. The umpire called it fair,
Buesse began kicking anu made no
effort to field the ball while two Sum-
ter runners scored. There were two
other decisions that Manning objected
| to, one at first base when Sumter
| runner was declared safe because the
Manning first baseman did not have
his foot on the sack and failed to
touch the runner, the other a very
close decision at second when
Manning runner was declared out
when he was apparently safe. But
even granting that all Of these decis-
| ions were incorrect, which we do not
concede, Sumter won the game by
heavy batting later in the game, not
to mention two or three close decis-
ions that were in Mannings favor and
| to which there was objection on the
part of Sumter spectators.
+ The third game the writer did not
! witness. It was umpired by Mr.. A. K.
Sanders and it is stated that there was
not a, kick by either side during the
game.

ty ball playing and every
team that has been here has been CIV
