We understand there is a movement on foot to build a cotton warehouse at Summerton. The merchants and the bank are behind the movement. If so, it will succeed. Merchants and bank ers of Manning look npon the business interests of your town. Town's busi ness interests, look upon your mer chants and bankers, what say you. Died at the home of his brother in Manning last Wednesday night, Mr. John M. Russell, aged 32 years. The deceased was a native of Virginia, and came here in the last stages of con sumption. The climate benefited him some but the disease was imbedded in his system too deeply. The funeral took place in the Manning cemetery. Rev.~J. 0. Gough conducted the ser vice. Mr. J. L. McLeod has returned from his purchasing trip at the .north, and he did not come back with an empty grip sack either-, if the quantity of goods we see being opened up in his store is any kind of an indication. Mr. McLeod made a personal selection of his spring goods, and he only asks a visit to his store to convince the most exacting that he is "It" for goods that are cheap and goods that are good.

There is to be a baby show feature added to the attractions, and the rivalry to have the prettiest baby will be fierce. this ay not be giving a "square deal" te all,~but then there are other features . amus for he ineligibles. The week past there were three deaths in this town. and this bare an nounement would not speak well for the health of Manning. Therefore it is well to keep the record straight by explaining: two of those who departed this life-Messrs. Walker and Russell were coUsumutiveS of long sutiering, and their being taken hence, was in our judgment, a blessing to them. The other. a sweet little girl became afflict ed with a malady that atmospheric or climatic conditions have no influence, hers was one of those cases which dem onstrates the uncertainty of life. Three little rules we all should keep. To make life happy and bright. Smile in the morning. smile at noon, Take Rocky Mountain Tea at night. Dr. W. E. Brown & Co.

Stukes and J. A. Weinberg. The busi ness of this institution is in a very flour ishing condition. Tt has steadily in creased since its organization, and thus far. has not lost as much as a dollar by bad loans or otherwise. This is a strong board, and with such men at the helm. the bank has a future that will eclipse its successful past. The board will meet this week for the election of oicers: and there is no doubt that the present officers will be re-elected.

Citizens, it is every man's duty to be registered so he may have a voice in the selection of our 'town government. The man who is so indifferent as to not register now while the books are open to give him the opportunity, should not complain if men get on the council who are not of his choice. We do not know whether there will be.opposition to the present council or not, so far as we are concerned, we have but little complaint to make. True. we should like to have a better knowledge of the receipts and disbursements of council, not as a mat ter of curiosity, but as a matter of right- information council should gladly furnish to the public. A report made up of "sundries" or "miscella neous" does not give the public the information as to cost, what for, and to whom paid. ft does not show whether the money is being properly handled, nor does it show whethier the money is being divided up among the members of council, or going to persons not in oosition to vote to themselves the taxes of the citizens. Insofar as the visible work of council is concerned,we think it has done well. our streets are in fairly good condition, the town is well drained and well policed, and we now have a fire fight ing machine, and a number of other improvements, but then. we should have these things and mo re.; the in come runs up near the 910,000 ;Mark and this is a whole lro- money,.Things are not now like they wefe when the town's income was s&M, then' it was necessarily run in a careless manner, but now the income is large-and grow ing larger, and people should know how their money is being spent and who is getting it. Get the Right Kind. If you are troubled with Piles and can't find a cure, try Witch Hazel Salve, but be sure you get that made by E. C. DeWitt & Co.. Chicago. It is the Original. If you have used Witch Hazel Salve without being relieved it is probable that you got hold of the many worthless counterfeits that are sold on the reputation of the genuine DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve. The R. B. Loryea Drug Store. The Executive Committee of the Cotton Growers' A ssociation met in the court house last Monday. Those pres ent were E. D. Hodge, W. M. Plow den, 3. D. Rutledge, R. E. McFaddin, Jr., B. P. Broadway, S. M. Hayrs worth, R D. Thompson; Louis Appelt. The purpose of the meeting was to ascertain what progress was being made with regard to securing stock to build a standard warehouse. and what means were to be devised for getting the necessary financial su:>port, to ar range for a field agent whose opera tions were to be under the supervision of the executive committee, and to push the welfare of the organization. A resolution avas adopted urging the cotton ginners of Clarendon to pledge themselves to collect 10) cents per bale for all bales of cotton ginned by them the coming season, and turn same over to the association, in doing this the support of the association falls equally on all. and not heavily on any. The field agent will visit each ginner to explain and urge this matter. The I Polelift Sil Impoverished soil, like impov erished blood, needs a proper fertilizer.

Leaves have their tine to fall. And tiowers to wither at the North wint's breath. And stars to set; but all T.hou hast all seasons for thine own. 0 Death:" * * r, * * * * * * * * %k * * * ''Youth and the opening rose May look like things too glorious for decay. And smile at thee-but thou art not of those That wait the ripened bloom to seize their prey.'' The above lines suggested themselves to thelwriter upon hearing of the death, in the early hours of last Thursday morning, of Sarah Margaret Johnson, aged 14 years, the second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. B. A. Johnson. The de ceased was a lovely child-a favorite with her acquaintances young, and old, and the nipping of earth's garden of such a flower, brought sadness to the people of Manning who dearly loved her. It is seldom the death of a child is so universally felt, but in this case, all felt the loss of a precious jewel, and all wauted to show respect for her memory and sympathy for her family. The funeral took place Friday morn - ing at the cemetery, her pastor Rev. mio. 0. Gough conducted the service. The stores closed and bus iness was suspended to a t t e n d the funeral. The pupils and teachers of the Moses Levi Memorial Institute marched in a body led by the seventh rade. of which Sara Margaret, was a member. After a hymn by the choir, the chool children sang "Sweet and Low," which was followed by the choir with more song service. The entire service was solemn and impressive, and deep orrow and bereavement was manifest by the tears which showed a sincere affection for the departed one, and a trong sympathy for the family whose hearts are bruised and bleeding. The seventh grade, as well as the entire school had ulaced upon the tomb beautiful floral tcibutes. The grave was banked with magnificient flowers from friends, a number of these were rare and costly flowers sent from abroad. This sweet little girl was ill but a a short while, and everything that skill, and love could do, was done, but in vain, Sara Margaret was called by im for a good and wise purpose, and we believe she is now a ministering angel in heaven. Notice to Teachers. Prof. Wardlaw has accepted our in vitation to deliver an address at the next teachers meeting, March, 17th. We hope every teacher in the county that can possibly do so will attend. Prof. Wardlaw is a teacher of teachers and it is-quite a privilege to have the opportunity of hearing him. S. P. HOLLADAY, Superintendent New Zion Dots. Editor The Manning Times: Mr. S. C. Turbeville spent a few days of last week in Charleston on business.
