The June tcrm or court began here iondaV. with Tudge S. XV . G. Shipp, Flo-ence. presiding, ard Solicitor tol1 and Stenographer Wood at their Spctive Iosts of duty. This is Judge ipps lirst yisit as .urige to Manning, L there baying been a general charge iven to the grand jury at a previous :rM. he did not think it. necessary to harge them at any length. He did, oever, remind them of their duties, ud he emphasized the fact. that good :ads should be maintained, and that was a part of the grand jury's duty see that we have the highways in ood condition: they should make an ispection of the county officers. and se that each officer did his duty. Judge Shipp was especially pleased ) be in Manning and preside over the :urt in such a well appointed court ouse as is here. He said it reflected pon the character and the progressive ess of the people. they have every aason to feel proud of it. The docket is quite light, on Monday ot a case was tried by a jury. Jesse ad Ezekiel McKenzie each pleaded uilt.v to assault and battery of a high ad aggravated nature. and were each ud $25 or .'0 days. This small sentence 'as given because of the fact that the efendants had paid the doctor's bill )r the prosecutor. and for his lost .me, and as they thought. settled the se. The bond of John Anderson for $200 i the case of the State against John .nderson, and Josephine Simons, was treated and paid. Jeff Evans pleaded guilty to the barge of assau.it and battery of a high ad aggravated nature and was sen mced to 30 days or a fine of 25. The ise of special interest at this term is e State against M. Davis, the blind ian who is charged with the burning the several stores at Foreston. He -as arraigned and the time fixed for -al yesterday. He is being represent I by Davis & Weinberg. The grand jury returned "No Bill" i the cases against Willis Davis and mes Richardson, charged with stor ig liquor. Ellison Tindal wiho was caught selling quor in one of the store lots in this )wn nleaded guilty and was sentenced pay a fine of or days on the ang. Tindal had previously been pun hed by the town authorities tor the Lme offence. Willie Bethune was brought intq )urt and sentenced to be hanged on ie 14th day of July for the murder of [r. G. B. Mims. This is the third time ie defendant Bethune has been sen need. The crime was committed on ie 21st day of February 1909, tried and )nvicted before Judge Gage at the ine term of that year. He was sen nced to be hanged July 30th same ar. An appeal was taken and the ver et of the court below sustained. The 'isoner was again tried to have the iestion of his insanity passed upon by jury at the June term of 1910. The try pronounced him sane, and Judge [eminger sentenced him to be hanged the 1st day of July of 1910, another 3peal was taken to the supreme court, hich court again sustained the lower yurt, and yesterday Bethune was again utenced to be hanged on the 14th day July next. The defendant was repre ted by Mr. Manning of Sumter bar, t on account of illness he was forced retire from the case, and his friends quested Hon. J. H. Clifton to act for r. Manning. Mr. Clifton was present the sentencing of Bethune yesterday e did not intimate whether there ould be another move made for the isoner, nor do we think there will be the highest court has had the case fore it twice, the only hope Bethune n have is an appeal to the pardoning wer for clemency. The case of the State against M. avis charged with arson, the burning the stores at Foreston consumed ~arly the wihole of yesterday. and was ell conducted on both sides. The pros. ution wore a net of circumstantial idence around the defendant but Capt avis for the defence took the State's idence as a basis for the defence, id showed to the satisfaction of the ry the fallacy of the prosecution. he arguments on both sides were rong, and Judge Shipp's charge was ear, defining the law so each and *ery juror could understand, neverthe ss when the jury went into the room .ey got hung up, and it. was after 11 clock last night when they brought in verdict of "Not Guilty." resentment of Grand Jury for the June term of court 1911. o His Honor S.

The "Racketeers" tennis club, ssisted by the Summnerton Fire Depart nent, was instrumental in its presenta .ion: and each is to receive a half of the >roceeds. Summerton is to be congrat ilated upon her wealth of local talent. Another evidence of this possession vas manifested in the well rendered >rogram at the closing exercises of the summerton graded school, which took >lace Friday evening. The chief feature >f the program was an oratorical eon est, in which six boys took part. The ;elections were good, and each acquitted iimself most creditably. The decision >f the judges, was rendered by the Rev. ?ershaw, who acknowledged their dif iculty in reaching any conclusion. The rote, he stated was not unanimous, but vas foubd to be in favor of Mr. Winfred lodgers. Tbe medal was then present td to Mr. Rodgers by Mr. Ellison Ca >ers.

Ow ing to circumstances oyer which we had no control the date of the starting of our train has been some what delayed and it is now planned to get it under way about the 5th of June, and arrive at Manning- June 22nd. The people of this State should un derstand that while this train is plan ned and equipped by Winthrop and Clemson colleges yet had it not been for the hearty and liberal co-opera tion of the railroads of this State its operation would not have been pos sible. The three great systems of the State, the Southern, the Seaboard Air Line and the Atlantic Coast Line have from the very beginning met the proposition in the most cordial and liberal manner. Not only are they furnishing the equipment in the shape of cars for this train but they are also moving that train entirely free of charge. I think it but proper that this fact should be known as an evidence of the interest tl)at these roads are taking in the welfare of the people of the State. Since the last notice of this train was given to the public another car has been added thereto by Winthrop college. This car will be filled with an exhibit of Household conneniences and should prove quite an attractive and of educational value. It has also been found possible to add more stock to the equipment of the Live Stock Car so this feature will be es pecially complete. The visit of this train should be of particular interest to the boys of the various corn clubs of the State and it is expected that they will turn out in force, therefore, special work along the line of corn judging and cultiva tion will be given by Prof. Napier and the train will als6 be accompan ied by Prof. C. B. Hadden who is now in charge of the Boys Corn Club work in this State, working under the joint direction of Clemson college and the U. S. Farm Demonstration Work. I Miss Hyde, in charge of the Win throp cars, will have a competent corps of assistants and has outlined an extremely interesting program for ladies who visit the train. It is hoped that everyone will real- < ize that it will take the full day to i get the maximum of benefit from this train and that they will make it a point to reach it early. One day is all the time that can be allowed at a sin gle point and we want to urge all who can to be on hand promptly so as to get the greatest benefit out of i ihe train possible.

HARLTON DURANT, ATTonNEY AT LAW, MANNING, S.C Took the Shilling. A recruiting-sergeant one day, met an ignorant youth idling, with his bands in his pockets and standing before a house on the front of whic, :as a notice informing t4e public 4hat the building .was to. be sold. The notice ran thus: "To Be Sold by 'Private Treaty." The sergeantapproachedithegouth and asked him if he -bad'-ever thought of joining the army. "Not me," was the reply. "You'd have nothing in the army aworth talk, ing about." "Is that so?" said the other.."Well, how is it then Private Treaty has a house for sale and him only -.aptivate yet?" The youth looked thoughtful and puzzled, and presently, over a pint of ale, the possibility of owning a house by joining the army grew into .a cer tainty and the shiming changed-hands. -London Tit-Bits. Wonderful Animalculae. Of all the minute creatures that in abit this globe unseen by the naked aye there is none so astonishing, ac; :ording to the Scientific Americat, as the little living things that live in stagnant water. They are called slip per animalculee, or, as the scientist has it, the paramecium. These tiny, invisible things develop so rapidly that If they were able to live through 350 generations they would crowd every ther living thing off the face of the ?arth and form a mass larger than the planet itself. Should they go on re roducing until the nine hundredth eneration these little creatures would !orm a mass large enough to crowd he moon and stars and even the sun tirely out of space. Luckily for us his is not possible, according to na :ure's decree. The paramecium dies ifter It has attained the one hundred nd seventieth generation, and so the twful possibilities are checked of its nultiplying to fill the universe. A Bird That Is Feared. The elster (Pica candata) Is a bird hat is respected and feared through iut south Germany. It belongs to the aven tribe and is about the size of a [ove, with black and white feathers ad log, pointed tail. It builds its Lest in orchards, and its life is sacred. f it is seen three times in succession in the same housetop In a place re note from its home it is believed to be sure sign of death in that house. If t flies over a house where any one is 11 and gives its peculiar cry the sick erson is sure to die, but it it does not cream the patient may recover. It Is etter for the sick person if the bird oes not come near. No one could be dred to bother these birds for fear hey might seek revenge, and if by hance one of them should die It is a gn of bad luck to the owner of the roperty where It Is found. The ird is a valuable Insect destroyer and a this way probably more than com ensates for the fear It occasions .mong the farmers. Cursing In Korea. A strange way of cursing is that of he Korean. His ordinary swearword ; "Oenuma," or "You brute." The apanese have the same partiality for as term of endearment. But accord ig to the Oriental Economic Review he Korean considers himself especial r abusive -when he canls a person his bild or grandchild. When he wants y call somebody down the Korean emands hotly, "Are you not my ild?" And the angry retort is: Whati I your child? You are my randchfld." Then the first goes a tep further and cries, "You are a randchild of my grandchild!" to rhich the rejoinder Is: "You conceit fi fellow! Have you forgotten that o are a grandchild of a grandchild f my grandchild?" When their vi speration reaches its climax the peo le of Chosen at last come to the oc dental standard of exclaiming, "You randchild of a dog!" Servants In Turkey. Turkey is not nearly so benighted as re imagine, for there is no servant uestion there. Though slavery Is still ecognized, the kadun (mistress of the ouse) is a mother to her servants, rhom she treats as children, and no hildren In the world are better treated aan Turkish children. The most pain l thing the kadun can do to a maid to say: "The master has found a ood husband for thee. Thou wilt be iarried at such and such a time." "Oh, mistress, what have I done to e thus abandoned?" Is the usual sor Dwful response. Even alter the servant's marriage the ndly relations between mistress and iaad continue. There are no fixed rvant wages In Turkey. Faithful ervants are rewarded from time to Lie in accordance with their masters' e mistresses' good pleasure or circum tances.-Chicago Journal. Origin of Dukes. The word duke comes from the Latin dlu," a leader. In early Saxon times te commnnders of armies were called ukes-l. e., the leaders of the soldiery. other words, the first duke was the rst best fighting man. No regard was ad to- ancestry or present attainments any other sort of thing beyond the mple matter of warlike efficiency. Faturally the leader of the fighting ould when the iighting was over come i for the lion's share of the spoils and onors," and naturally again the rest f the folks would "look up" to him, rd by degrees his superiority would e imparted to his family, and a "no ility" would spring into being. It all hsted, to start with, on brute force and nimal courage combined with cunning clubbing and thrusting.-New York .mercan. Colored H-ailstones. Red hail Is not unknown, even In reat Britain, for In May of 1885 there ras quite a heavy fall of It at Castle ellan, in County Down. Red and hite fell together, and the red hue as not merely on the surface of the ellets, but went through and through. haen one was squeezed between the gers it stained them. At Minsk, In Russia, an even stran er hail shower had fallen five years efore. Some of the pellets were ring aaped, and, while some were distinctly 3ddish, others were a bright blue. ome scientists declare that the color rg is due to various mineral salts. For those wh~o may not have had the ict brought to their attention it may e of interest to lknow that, while one Lay sell a relinquishment of his claim. a homestead, such sale. does not con y title to the purchase'r, but'merely ives him first chance .to cnter the taimn as a homestead. In case one oes thus sell he forfeits thereby the :ght of entering another homestead, ut he does not lose this right if he miply abandons the claim and allows ae itl to rvert- to the government.
