On August Is the voters of Sumter
County will pass upon the matter of
issuing 100000 of county bonds, the
proceeds to be used as follows:
$4,000 for the District Agricultural
College.
$4,000 for the improvement of the
public roads of the county.
A voter can vote in favor of either or
both of these propositions. If he fav-
ors the issue of the College bonds, and
not those of the roads, he can vote
that way, or vice versa.
In order to legalize the issuing of the
bonds it is necessary that two thirds of
the entire registered vote of the county
shall cast ballots in favor of them.
1t is not believed that there is any
opposition to speak of to the proposed
bond issues, but the chief difficulty to
be experienced is that of getting an
adequate number of voters to the polls
to place themselves on record as fav-
oring the issue of the bonds by the
County Commissioners.
The legal advertisement for the bond
election appears in the Times Recorder
of today, and will appear the usual
number of times in the weekly Times
Recorder.
1t fully explains the purposes for
which the bonds are to be issued.
For Agricultural College.
The issue of $50, 900 of bonds to pay
for the District Agricultural College
must commend itself to every citizen of
Sumter Count.
No institution in this section of the
State will be of greater or of more
permanent value to the farming in
terests than this college. There the
sons of the farmers Will be given scien-
tific training along lines that will
equip them to become more successful
farmers than they could otherwise be.
Agriculture is being rapidly raised to
the standard of profession, requiring
trained intelligence, and promising re-
wards TO the educated man equal to to
those to be found in any other avoca-
ton.

BITHULIrHIo PAVEMENT GOOD
The Work of Cutting Through Pave
ment to Repair Water Mains Proves
Its Value.

The bitulithic pavement laid on PEN
dleton streets by the Warren Construc-
ton company is better than the speci-
fications. The specifications called
for but two inches of surface, while
the surface in places is over four
inches thick and is as hard as iron.
The pavement has been opened in
five places on Main street for the pur-
pose of repairing water mains, and 1t
required workmen from three to five
| hours to cut out a section a few
| square feet in extent. 1t is almost inn
possible to cut it with ordinary tools
and there is every evidence that 1t
will last even longer than the con-
tract calls for with slight repairs.
Those who have witnessed the work
of cutting through it are satisfied that
the city has made no mistake in hav-
ing bitulithic paving.

CHAPTER III.

Lord Fairbank and his only daughter,
Lady Diana, lived in Cromwell Road,
Kensington, and it was to their house
that Hugh Chantley bent his steps a
few hours later. He had an engagement
to dine there
1t was Lord Fairbanks greatest wish
that his nephew should marry his daugh.
ter, for a small estate adjoining his own,
of which it was once q part, belonged
to Hugh, and it had always been dream
of his to reunite it to the broad Fair
bank lands in his own lifetime Other
wise he had no special reason for desir-
ing a marriage, for he thought his neph-
ew rather lazy fellow; he himself lived
busy political life and had small re-
spect for idlers. 1t annoyed him little
to think that when he died his heirs
would not take the same interest in
home and imperial matters that he did
himself
Lady Di was scented in her boudoir,
where she generally waited till dinner
was announced when no guests were ex-
peeted, for she did not count her cousin
Hugh as one.
The drawing room was very large and
rather too big for one solitary person,
and her own room was a pretty one. Her
father, when he was at home. was al
ways in the library, for he was a great
student as we'll as a politician, and when
he was not debating to his secretary-a
young man of good family, who was
making a secretaryship to such an i'm
portant man a stepping stone in political
life-he was porting over rare early Eng
lish manuscripts, of which his collection
was unique.
The hands of the ormolu clock on the
mantelpiece pointed to a quarter to 8.
Lady Diana was leaning back in an
arm chair, resting her daintily slippered
feet on the fender, for though the day
had been warm the evening was chilly,
and a cheerful little fire was burning in
the CRATE.
The room was furnished in Louis the
Fifteenth style, with its conventional
scroll and shell ornamentation; its white
walls were adorned with the gilt stuccc
work which is characteristic Of that
style, and sylvan scenes in which dainty
shepherds and shepherdesses disported
were painted ON the panels.
Lady Di was dressed in black spotted
| net. embroidered with fine silver thread.
Black showed off her fair skin 70 perfee-
ton, and her white shoulders and neck,
white as they were, gained by the con
trast with her dark gown.
| The only ornament she wore was a
| bracelet. fastened with a little paddock,
on which the word Hugh" could be cas-
ily read. She plucked at it as though
she would like to take it of, it seemed
to annoy her. A costly diamond ring
| was on the third finger Of her left hand.
When the silvery chimes of the clock
announced the hour of she rang the
bell impatiently, A solemn looking foot
man appeared in answer to the sum

Much Stupidity.

I fear you will laugh when I tell you
what / conceive to be about the most
essential mental quality for free peo-
pie whose liberty is to be progressive,
permanent, and on large scale; It is
much stupidity.
In fact, what We opprobiOusly call
stupidity though not an enlivening
quality in common society, is natures
favorite resource for preserving stead
mess of conduct and consistency of
opinion; it enforces concentration:
people who learn slowly, learn only
what they must. The best security
for people doing their duty is, that
they should not know anything else to
do; the best security for fixedness of
opinion is, that people should be in.
capable of comprehending what is to
