Mirth, melody and music Is the
keynote Of the performance to be
given by the famous BLACK Patti
Troubadours" at the Academy of
Music on Friday evening, the 18th.
Those sweet singers and ebony color
ed fun makers of Dixie Land have
been recognized for many years as
q high class standard attraction in
all sections of the country. Among
the forty in it's ranks are to be found
the most talented Afro-American
singers, dancers and comedians in
the world. In this country the Black
Patti and the Troubodours, through
their refined and enjoyable stage per-
formance. have added largely to the
musical culture of The people. Their
revival of the sweet melodies of the
Southk-reminisccnt of anti-bellum
days-the plantation, the cotton
fields and the levee has been a musi-
cal revelation to millions.
The Black Patti iroubadours will
be seen at the Academy of Music Fri

seen in the local theatre and will

o COUNTY FINANCES.
Those Who Know Say They Are in
Good Shape.

A rumor having been circulated
that the financial affairs of Orange
burg County were not in the most
desirable shape, The News and
Courier's correspondent had an in
terview with Dr.. L. K. Sturkie, coun-
ty attorney, in reference to the mat
ter.
DR.. Sturkie stated that there were
no grounds upon which to base such
a report other than that at the 1907
session of the Legislature the tax
levy for this county was reduced half
a mill under a Misrepresentation, but
at this years session of the Legisla-
ture the half mill was put back and
in time this deficit will be made up.
Dr.. Sturkie further stated that
like every other county, Orangeburg
at times finds it necessary to borrow
money against the taxes which are
collected in the fall. Otherwise than
the usual prevailing conditions the
affairs in this county are in first-class
shape.
The Times and Democrat called
attention to the rumor about the
finances of the county referred to by
the correspondent in its Tuesday S
edition. This rumor had been in cir
culation for some time and we called
attention to it so as the facts in the
case could be brought out as they
have been by the above statement
from DR.. Sturkie. who is in posi-
ton to speak autnoritatively on the
subject.
County Supervisor Dantzler, who
will voluntarily retire from the OIL
fce about the first of April, will pub
lish a full statement Of the finances
of the county about that time, which,
we are informed, will lay at rest all
rnmors concerning the county imam
cos This statement will be publish
ed lust as soon as County Treasurer
Fair has made up his statement OF
the different funds.
In this connection we would state
that in publishing the rumor Inc
Times and Democrat had no idea OF
rehecting on Supervisor Dantzler' or
anv other member of the Board OF
Commissioners. In handling the
county finances, we believe that these
gentlemen have done the very pest
they could, and as good as any other
set of officials in their place could
have done under similar circumstan-
raS

Heavy Sales of Fertilizers.

The sales of fertilizers has been
heavy this year, which is Il bad sign.
If the receipts for tag tax is any IN
dication much more will be used this
year than last. The tag tax is %
cents upon each ton of fertilizer ship
ned out, the tax being placed for the
chemical analysis made by the au-
thorities at Clemson. So far this year
s117.O17.S5 has been received
against S112,745.S5 for the same
time in 1907. The total receipts for
1907 amounted to s13O,9S4.Sl
against S112,745.39 for 1906, which
was the record year. AS will be
seen the receipts are largest at this
time of the year although several
thousand dollars are received in the
fall

1t is not generally known that the
debt of five hundred dollars on the
Concrete building of the Orangeburg

let it be known that he is not afraid
of loosing one cent, his confidence
in the Baptist folks honesty is un-
bounded.

mittee at its recent meeting cast two
resolutions of vital interest to all:
First: Resolved that as an Asso-
citation we raise the sum OF five hum
dred dollars to be paid on debt for
the Concrete building, the property
of the o. c.. l., the said amount be
apportioned in prorata shares among
our churches, the money to be paid
during the year 1908 to T. NJ. NC
Michael, Treasurer.
The second resolution needs to be
read before each church OF our asso-
citation: Resolved that as an EXecu-
tive Committee we commend the re-
presentatives of both Furman Uni
versity and Greenville Female Col
lege in ther efforts to raise at least
one hundred thousand dollars for
these schools, and that we invite
Brethren Easterling and Strinfield
among our churches to raise our
share of the above amount.
I have this day sent copy Of the
above to each of our county papers
that all may read and heed.

Deafness Cannot he Cured.

by local application. as they cannot
reach the diseased portions of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness. and that is by constitutions
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an innamed condition Of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is intlamed You have rum
bling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed. Deaf
ness is the result and unless the in
hammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out Of ten are caused
by Catarrh, which is nothing but an

THE CIVIC LEAGUE.
Held an Interesting and Profitable
Meeting Tuesday Afternoon.

The Civic League. to which every
man, woman and child in this city,
who believes in making things beau
tiful should belong, held quite an In
teresting meeting on Tuesday after
noon, at which many plans for beauti-
flying the city were discussed and
acted on Among other things it was
resolved to continue the work OF i'm
proving the looks Of the courthouse
square, and a committee was appoint
ed with Mrs, R. H. ennings as chair
man to look after the work: 1t is
said some hardy towering plants will
he put out as we'll as some other
plants. The work is in good hands
and it will be carefully looked after.
Sometime ago Congressman Lever
was requested to send some flower
seed for distribution by the league.
These seed have been received and
will be given to any person who Will
use them to beautify their premises
and thus beautify the city. Mrs w.
G.. Smith and Mrs. w. l.. Glaze have
charge of the distribution of these
seed, and anyone who will properly
use them can get same by applying to
either of these ladies. Beautiful
flower gardens help to make beautl-
full city.
We are almost ashamed to state the
fact that the League has only ninety
members. 1t ought to have I'VE
times that number, as all OF us
should be interested in the work of
the league, which is entirely for the
public. An effort will be made TO
induce others to join the League,and
for that purpose committee for each
street in the city vas appointed to
solicit new members. We hope there
will he large addition to the Eem-
bers of the league, which is engaged
in a noble work and should be hearth
" encouraged by all.
