An Injunction.

Apparently forgetting that a news
paper representative was standing
near, Mr. Whiteman this morning made
remark about injunction proceedings
being instituted in connection with
the improvement of East Rose street,
but just what occasioned the refer
ence, by whom the injunction is to be
asked, or for what purpose, has not
been definitely determined
Considerable interest has been taken
in the controversy by people of the
city, and developments are expected
at the meeting of the city council
Tuesday evening. Chairman White
man, of the street committee, main
tains' that the Rich & Harris company
is doing it's best to comply with the
specifications, while City Engineer L.
w. Loehr says he is in possession of
facts and figures that will prove other
wise.

proved his contention in the test made
yesterday morning to determine as to
whether too much sand were conta med

didn't test some of the gravel in an

Veteran Policeman RetireS.

Officer Albert II. Weeks, who COM
pleted forty-three years service is a
member of the city police force on April
18th retired from active duty on Satur-
day, May 1st, and will hereafter draw
two-thirds pay as reserve officer, city
council having at the last meeting ad-
opted a resolution relieving him of &C
tive duty and placing him on the reserve
list. Officer Weeks served the city faith
fully and well, especially during the
turbulent and disorderly period immed-
lately after the war and throughout the
reconstruction era, when man of cool
courage and determination was needed
to keep the disorderly and criminal ele-
ment in subsection. For the services he
then rendered the people OF Sumter
have been eyer grateful and now that
advancing age incapacitates him for
regular patrol duty he has been placed
on the reserve lisu and will be called on
only in case of emergency. 1t may seem
little thing to provide for faithful
servant who has given the best years OF
his life to the service Of the community
and who has during his forty odd years
of service risked his life hundreds OF
times, but no act of the city OF SutnGer
is more creditable, and no taxpayer who
has grain Of public spirit or apprecla-
ton in his makeup will withhold his
approval of the pension that has been

A Business Change.

The door, sash and blind business Of
Messrs. Geo. S. Hacker & Son, at Char
lesion, S. c., which was established by
Mr.. Geo. S. Hacker in the year 1912.
has been bought by the Hacker Manu-
featuring Company The new company
is composed of some Of Charlestons best
known and most progressive business
men, and we have no doubt but that the
record established by the former firm
for fair dealing and the manufacture of
honest goods will be maintained by the
new concern. The name Geo S. Hacker
s. Son has for almost three-quarters of
a century been a SYNONYM for the best
in door, sash and blind manufacture,
and we bespeak for the Hacker Manu-
featuring Co., the good will and conf
dence of the people of this community.
Mr.. G. B. Buell., of the firm OF Buell.
& Roberts, is President of the company,
and Mr.. J. E. Davis, Constructing En-
gineer of the VasCa. Chemical Co., is
Vice President; Mr.. John B. White,
late of Cameron, S. c., is Secretary and
Treasurer and Mr.. P. J. Prendergast,
who has been Superintendent with
Messrs Geo. S. Hacker & Son for fifteen
years is General Manager.
We call attention to the advertise
ment of the new company in this issue.

THE MANNING TIMES, MANNING, s. c.. MAY II, 1909.
A Lion Hunt.

There is distinction in Africa be-
tween orr mary lions and ''man eaters, y
says T. r. MacMechen in McClure's
Magazine. The ordinary loin does not
willfully attack man. The presence Of
loins roaming at night on the veldt is
not disturbing to any native nor to
whites who have come to understand
the beast. Persons returning to their
camps after nightfall do not notice the
roaring of lions or the cries OF leopards
or hyeras.
1t is seldom that people bent upon do
mestic errands carry weapons in the
darkness, although at night the veldt
of British East Africa is alive with
roaming beasts. which may be heard
from the verandas of the houses. Lions
give the passing man wide berth, day
or night, when it is apparent that he
means no mischief an ordinary lion,
ever when wounded will try flight be-
fore fight. When its escape is disputed
it will especially if wounded, try to
maui its enemy with teeth and claws.
A lion hunt is usually chase in which
the hunters goad the game into com bat.
Once lion las tasted human blood,
however. it is no more afraid Of man.
but learns that he is the weakest of ami
mails and the choicest Of meat. Such a
lion is known as a man eater because
now he hunts alan.

Boards OF Health Are Public Guardians.

We are asked 'tto define the functions
and powers of the Board of Health, and
what relationship the duties Of the
boards of health is to the public vel
fare" To comply with the request
fully would take up more space than IS
at our command. The law, with the OBJ
iect of having every precaution against
diseases, plaques. contagious and cpl
denies has given to the boards OF health
almost unlimited powers to enforce any
regulations they may make. For IN
stance: A board Of health in one com
munity may make regulation that IS
imperatively necessary IN its communl-
ty, that would be altogether unneces-
sary, imperative and perhaps injurious
in another. therefore in order to exer-
else q wisdom essential for wholesome
government of community, provision
is made by the law to cover the conol-
tions and environments Of the respec-
tive communities by permitting the local
boards to make such regulations, not IN
conflict with the regulations OF the State
Board, as in their Judgment may be
deemed proper, and the law officers are
required to enforce these regulations.
What are the functions OF the Boards
of Health? The name itself suggests
their duties viz: To exercise an intel
ligent vigilence over the community for
the preservation of health, and Ia this,
they should have the support OF every
good citizen because when community
becomes lax and unsanitary from indlf-
ference, neglect or otherwise the dam
age is not to few but to the many.
Epidemics cannot be arrested at one
mans door, if his neighbor is to have on
his premises that which may breed
pestilence-flth, trash, decaying vege-
table matter, pools of stagnant water
which are mosquito incubators, and any
and all things that are not conducive
to health
The police preserve law and order in
well governed city: it is this guardian
ship which gives PEI OF mind, and
permits citizens to lie u> ~ to sleep,
having faith in the protection the gov
ernment promises to life and property.
Boards of health occupy similar rela-
tiou to the general public, they are
watchman on the tower to warn against
the approaching danger a monster more
insidious than the thief who turks about
in the night. They are to arrest the ap-
proach OF that, which not only robs the
purse and leaves property to mourn the
| l>>ss, bus with invisible mystery enters
in and robs the marrow of the bones,
and leaves it's victim sufferer OF mind
and body, and praying for the grim
monster Death for relief.
II there is one thing the people OF
this American governments can be proud
.ofand thankful for it, is the great stress
being laid by the spending of millions
of dollars for improved sanitary meas
ures. The government has been able
to stamp out diseases altogether, and in
very many sections by the strict vigi-
lence Of boards of health, has prevented
them from getting beyond their starting
point. A board OF health doing its full
duty is really more OF guardian for the
uplift and welfare of community End
giving more indiscriminate benefit than,
in our judgment, any other one branch
of government.

a Novel Case.

A case of unusal interest was called
before Magistrate Richbourg's court
az Sumnerton last Thursday. DR.. D,
O. Rhame, the mayor of Summerton,
was na!ed before Judge Richbourg
charged with selling Jamaica Ginger, a
compound, containing a large per-
centage OF alcohol The charge being
one beyond the Jurisdiction of the mag
istrate all that he could do was to hold
a preliminary, but the prosecution rep
sented by J. NJ Woods, Esq, made OBJ
lection to Judge Richbourg hearing
an exparte side of The case upon the
ground of biasness in favor of the de-
fendant. w. C. Davis, Esq, repre-
sented the defense. The cause was
moved to Manning 10 be heard before
Magistrate Dickson at time not fixed.
AS far as our information goes, there
appears TO be considerable feeling
among the friends OF Mr.. Ad Walters,
who it seems bought Jamaica Ginger
at the drug store OF Doctor Rhame,
and became intoxicated TO the extent
of becoming boisterous and disorderiy.
He was arrested and heavily fined,
which resulted, so it is claimed, in a
warrant being sworn out charging Or.
Rhame with violating the liquor laws
of the State, in that he sold compound
Or mixture which contains alcohol
when used as beverage will prod uce
intoxlcation.
This case will be watched with in
terest all over the country, because a
very important element of law enforce
ment is involved in it. If the courts
decide that the selling |of Jamaica
Ginger is in violation of law, it will
necessarily have to make the same
ruling with regard to nearly all of the
extracts being used in the households
for cooking and baking, because nearly
all of them contain a large percentage
of alcohol. Vinegar would have to be
analyzed to ascertain the percentage
of alcohol it contains; yeacst for the
making OF bread, goes through fer
menvation, and it too, may contain
alcohol.

"Suffe7 Little Children TO Come Unto Me, and
Forbid Them Not"

Editor The Manning Times:
In the MANNING TINES of May 5th
this paragraph appears in the local
column, The Sardinia school was
visited last Sunday by Mr.. Isaac II.

in the Bible class exercises, after
which he read from manuscript an
address to the Sunday school. Sub
iect, Christ from Book of Matthew" !"
Although your paper is usually
accurate, in this instance you have
fallen into several errors.
First: The writer did not partici.
pate in the Bible exercises, but mere
ly assisted few of the scholars seat
ed near him in locating the answers
to the questions profounded by the
teachers.
Second: His subject was not "Christ
from Book of Matthew but 1.-The
Cry of the Children" his text from
st. Matthew, Chapter 1871 to 2 inclu.
sive. In his Introductory he stated
that as son cf Judea and naturally
firm believer in the 'One and Only
God still he had the highest esteem
regard and admiration for his dearly
beloved young brother, Jesus the
Jew. And incidentally spoke OF
the beautiful boy Christ jour,
neying to Jerusalem to par.

tes from the land Of bondage, and as
the first emancipation of women and

the ever fascinating and touching in
cident Of the friendship of Mary Mag
dalen for her saviour in every sense
of the term, and lastly he dwelt upon
the ''Cry of the Children
! Your correspondent would add that
the address was only delivered at the
earnest request of members Of the
Sunday school, and that prior to its
delivery the manuscript was showr
to the superintendent so as tc avoic
