CITIZENS SHOULD REGISTER.
rMr. IL. D. Bland Calls Attention to the
Fact That Municipal Registration
Books Close on March 1st.

The following letter which has
been received by The Item will no
doubt be read with much interest
by the people of Sumter who are in
terested in the coming municipal
election:
The Dolly Item.
lnasmuch as under the Constitution
of the Municipal Democratic party Of
the City of Sumter, the primary cleo ,
ton for Mayor and Aldermen is to be
held on the 10Th of March, it might
be well to call it to the attention Of
the citizens of Sumter that the club
roll for this primary election will be
"a copy of the books of registration
of the City of Sumter as they are at
the expiration of the Saturday pre-
ceding such primary election,"-ia
other words, that the persons who
desire TO vote in this primary elec-
ton will have to register with Mr..
+. d. Knight the supervisor of regis
tration for the City Of Sumter, on or
before Saturday, the 18th of March.
1t might be well to add here that
in order 10 register for city elections,
it is necessary for citizens 10 first be
registered on the County registration
books, and that these books are only
open for the purpose Of registering
on the first Monday Of each month.
The first Monday in February and
the first Monday in March are the
only two days upon which persons
can lie registered on the county reg
istration books, before the City pri-
mary election.

When Lent Begins and Ends.

hear speculations as to when Lent be-
gins, and when the Easter holidays
will be here. Curiously enough, Ash
Wednesday, which is the Beginning of
Lent is fixed by the end Of Lent.
which is the first full moon on or after
March 81.
Easter Sunday is the Sunday after
the fourteenth day of the Paschal
moon. SO the earliest date it can fall
is March 20, when the moon is full on
the 21st, and that date is Saturday.
1t cannot be later than April 25, when
the fourteenth day of the Paschal
moon falls on the 18th. and that date
is a Sunday.
This year Ash Wednesday falls on
February q, and Easter Sunday on

admonition:
Pay your honest debts. Too many
people nowadays live beyond their
means, and do not pay their debts
Don't come to confession and say you
can't pay your debts. You cannot pay
them if You will not do without some
thing you want of course You get
into debt by extravaganza; you may
get out of it by just the opposite
means. Give up some little things
that cost you money and do you nc
good, and pay your debts. Every man

John MdChd|e, Archbishop of Tuam
By MAJOR E. T. McCRYSTAL.

| While in Maynooth he created a
great sensation though his identity
was unknown at the time, by series
OF controversial articles which were
issued over the pen-name of "Hiero-
philus." About the same time he is
sued convincing treatise on 1.-The Evil
dences and Doctrines of the Catholic
!. Church" which created a widespread
interest.
When it was sought by the opera
ton Of penal laws to harass and per-
secute him. with an independence pc
culiarly his, he issued his pastorals
and flaming epistles signed John,
Archbishop of Tuam" and challenged
the bigots to the conflict.
All through the emancipation war,
he was the power on whose judgment
O'Connell relied without hesitation.
His fierce and caustic denunciation of
the Poor Laws. his laundering and
convincing condemnation of the vici-
Gus features of the National Schools,
his vigorous support of Repeal" his
fearless battling for Tenant Rights,
all marked him as man Of promi-
nent measure, one on whom his coun-
trymen might rally and whom their
foes had every cause to dread.
In his time he saw organization af-
ter organization come into existence
to work for the amelioration and bet
terment of the country. He saw them
die Of dry-rot, or wrecked by the am
bilious design of the sordid; he saw
treason rewarded and exalted to places
of power and preferment; he saw his
people decimated by artificial fam
ines and the great Exodus like a de-
stroying torrent drain the very life
blood of the nation, yet still he strug-
gled, with vision undimmed, cour-
age undaunted and an ardor that, not
even when nonagenarian, ever COOL
ed.
He attended all the Councils of the
Church and at the great Vatican
Council was most conspicuous. He
spoke at length on several occasions
during the session and was always
listened to with the most respectful
attention. A master of logic, philo-
sophie mind, rich resonant voice, a
finished orator and the senior Bishop
by conservation in the church his
words carried with them great weight.
Always a Gaedhilgoer when 1.-THE
Society for the Preservation of Irish
Language" was founded in 1877, "for
the purpose of preserving the Irish
language from decay. and making it
once again the ordinary speech of the
Irish people" he became the Patron
and his word, example and his high
station gave the movement, which has
since assumed such proportions and
holds today SO central place in Irish
endeavor, an impetus that could not
1alI put DC productive OF beneflcent re-
suits.
The 7th of November, 1881, dawned
with a black cloud hanging over Ire
land for that day the light of life went
out. The pure patriot, the sterling
man, the watchful shepherd, the
faithful follower in the footsteps of
st. Jarlath had. after almost touching
the century mark, been called to his
final reward and the earthly career of
the greatest of the MacHales - 1.-The
Lion of the Fold of Judah" - was
brought to a close and Ireland was
again to mourn a loving son as the
old See Of Tuam was widowed.
