LITTLE FALLS VS.. A1rKIN.

What promises to be one of the
most Interesting games of the season,
is the basket ball game between the
Atkin high school team and tho lccai
high school team which is to be pulled
OF tonight at the local opera house.
BY their easy victory over the
Staples team, the locals have shown
that they have speed aa well a judge
ment. But this has not had the effect
of tending to make them careless in
practice. which proved to be 20 with
the football team last fall. They have
been practicing right along 90 as to
be in condition for the games
scheduled for the season, which
includes Q game with the st. Cloud
high school team.
To beat the latter named team is
what the locals are aiming for. and Of
course they will do their utmost to
defeat all the teams on tho schedule
which are thought to be inferior to
the st. Cloud team.
Monday afternoon the first and
second teams were p,tted against each
other and very lively game was the
result Both teams are very coed,
and it was with extreme difficulty
that the 6rst team could wIest the
game from the second team, the score
being 30 to % in its favor.

THEY MAKE THEM TOO HARD.

THEY MAKE THEM TOO HARD.
Last Tuesday afternoon q certain
party, who evidently had been the
victim OF little more than his share
of some youths sport, accosted the
chief of police and asked that some
effort be made to protect the in.
offensive citizen from the wiles of
certain youths, stating that their
sport, while undoubtedly enjoyable to
them. was public nuisance. The
party stated that it was bad enough
when soft snow-balls were used, but
that in the case mentioned hard
snow balls were used, and that that
was just little too much for any
citizen to stand. Others have taken
the same stand as this party in this
regard, and Is q consequence the
youths are warned to disc ontinue
this nuisance.

four opera boxes, and q parquet 47x7O
feet. There would also be q semi
basement 47x8O feet, and also two

Office rooms on the second hcor.
The location for this proposed

as to give q se ating capacity Of 800

be just back of the opera building.
The playhouse would have stage 80

press. brick front. At present writing

presented it will add another to
select from. --.-..-.-

of Probate E. #. Shaw Tuesday OF
last week, found to be sane, and
taken under the surveillance OF
Sheriff Long, l+ft the shelter and
board offered by the sheriff and has
disappeared completely since Monday
night.
The only explanation that can be
found for the mans leaving the

too much for one OF his rowing
nature, and when the sheriff
acquainted him with that combina.
tion he thought it was high time to

MR.. LEVERS GOOD WORK.
The $4,000 Appropriation for the
P0st0ffiCe is a Certainty.

Mr.. r. I. Manning is in receipt of
a letter from Congressman Lever in
forming him officially, as president of
the Sumter Chamber of Commerce,
that the appropriation for the Sumter
postofice building has been increased
to $4,000. The house added $4,000
to the previous appropriation and
Senator Gary at Mr.. Levers instance
added an additional $40, 900 when the
public buildings bill came up in the
senate. An effort was male to cut
out the second appropriation and it
required hard fight on Mr.. Levers
part, backed up the entire South Car
olina delegation, to induce the con-
ference committee to let the item re-
main in the bill. Mr.. Lever made a
good fight in Sumter's behalf and
succeeded in obtaining an appropria-
tion sufficient to erect building that
will be adequate to the present and
future needs of this city. The people
of Sumter are sensible of the hard
work Mr.. Lever has done for this city
and they not only give him full credit
for the gratifying results, but are ap-
preciative of his efforts. 1t is only
since Mr.. Lever has represented this
district that Sumter has had evidence
that we are represented in congress.
MIR. Lever has demonstrated that
congressman can be of practical ben
eft to his district and in consequence
of his work for his constituents he is
easily the strongest man in public life
in the Seventh District.-Sumter

easily If pinch Of salt is added.
Egg stains on silver can be readily
removed by rubbing with soft cloth
dipped in fine salt.
Fruit stains may be removed by
covering with Vet salt, while fresh.
