The hprse was hitched in the rear "of Dr. '"* Black's store, and. becoming frightened from some cause, broke loose. Mrs. Hartzog was on the sidewalk near Pearlstin's store, and the horse dashed by her twice in rapid succession, each time coming dangerously near. Had not Mrs. Hartzog placed herself jam up against the fence she would no doubt have been trampled to death, as the animal was seemingly panic stricken, and after passing her the second time, ran against an awning post in front of Mr. Thos. Black's store. The blow knocked him down, and he-was then caught. Fresh meats always at Murphy's. Pure fruit jelly retailed at Muggins's.

A Worthy Negro Boy, Hagar Dowling, a well known ,nd extremely worthy negro woman f this city, is justly proud of her 011, Paul Daniels. She has reason o be. Paul has been across the ceau, and he returned to his home wo weeks ago after four years spent 11 hard study at the Congo Trailing Institute, at Colwyn Bay, North Vales, a polished, cultured man, ,nd it is no wonder that his old nammy worships-him, and that the vhite people who are his friends ,nd well-wishers desire for himon^ he best success that the world can iring to him. His record is a good bject lesson to every negro in Bam erg county?and iu the whole ountry for that matter?for it hows Low it is possible, even if a oy's skin is black, to attain a poition in life that will command miversal respect. Paul Daniels was bom right here n Bamberg, and his mother?left a ridow when Paul was a little chap -was poor. She loved her boy and "? x * ^1 1J [etermiuea mai ne snomu ua\e ?u ducation. With this end in view he worked early and late, saved very penny, and, denying herself of veu the ordinary comforts of life, onsecrated her whole existence to he task of giving Paul an education, hat he might fit himself for a poition in life much above anything he had ever dreamed of for herself. 5aul now appreciates these early acrifices for his benefit, evidenced >y the fact that he is doing all he :an now to better his mother's conlition and improve her surroundngs, so that in her old age she may njoy the comforts which she unelfishly did without to help him dong. Six or seven years ago Paul was enrolled as a pupil at the Jenkins Jrphanage, in Charleston, and when reukins's Infant Band went abroad, Paul was one of the company, and vas left at Colwyn Bay to complete lis education. During the past summer Jenkns's "Sensational Concert Company," composed of orphanage pulils, has been touring the country. Dn July 7 the manager received a :elegiam from Paul Daniels, anlouncing his arrival in this coun;ry and declaring his intention of joining the company. That night ;he troupe was at Trenton, 5J.. J. xhe Charleston Jfessenger-, of July L5, had this to say about what happened there that night: ' At 9:15, while the concert was in pro. *ress, the Orphanage Man was surprised 1 3 i. ^ laotrfl fVlO JSVOllU worub lu acc c vc* y uvj iv_o. > v. stage. The audience, also, became exited, but soon the mystery was solved dv Aaron Porter, who exclaimed that Paul Daniels had come. Such a shaking >f hands and welcome greetings were exchanged that the writer cannot describe. Paul has made good use of his Lime during his four years' stay at the Congo Trainiug Institute, and he brings with him more than a hundred letters testifying to the high esteem in which he is held on the other side of the ocean. His English friends loaded him with valuable presents when he set sail for America, the bare enumeration of which would fill a quarter of a column of this paper. Paul remained with the orphanage concert company this summei until its tour was ended. He cams to Bamberg about two weeks ago and our readers can imagine tin welcome that awaited lpm from his proud old m^mmy. Since his so journ among us Paul has made nc nnrn Hi* of himself. He is not thai sort of a negro. Education anc travel have failed to spoil him. H< is humble in his demeanor, correc1 and modest in his deportment, ant is devoting his spare time to mak ing things more comfortable aii( homelike about his mother's house. Hereafter he will be connects with tlie Jenkins Orphanage, an* there is not a man or woman, know ing him as his friends do, who wil not wish for him the greatest possi ble success achievable. He has th best wishes of The Herald, th I editor of which is glad of this oj jportunity of writing words of prais [of one so worthily deserving them. I Fourth Quarterly Conference.

During the winter of 1897 Mr. James Reed, one of the leading citizens and merchants of Clay, Clay Co., W. Va., struck his leg against a cake of ice in such a manner as to bruise it severely. It became very much swollen and pained him so badly that he could not walk without the aid of crutches. He was treated by physicians, also used several kinds of liniment and two and a half gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but nothing gave any re- y lief until he began using Chamber- r Iain's Pain Balm. This brought almost complete cure in a week's time and he believes that had he not used this remedy his leg would have had to be amputated. Pain Balm isunequaledfor sprains, bruises and rheu- U matism. For sale by all druggists and medicine dealers. M Olar Briefs. On the night of the ISth instant, bj a large crowd assembled at our HI schoolhouse, the occasion being the meeting of the Olar Debating Society, with President W. T. Cave in the chair, and Secretary N. B. Pat- _ terson at his desk. The query, "Re- T| solved, that woman has more influence over man thau money," was debated. The following gentlemen spoke on the affirmative side: N. A. Patterson, Richard Morris, and Ernest Andrews. Those on the nega- fC) tive side were Geo. M, Barker and Wm. T. Cave. The judges were J. |sl E. Cook, M. C. Chitty, and J. E. Bennett, who decided that the nega- cc tive had the best of the argument. S. The decision does not satisfy us, afi however. We Olarites still contend ^ that woman is man's highest and nc noblest blessing. "Woman, with all thy faults, we love thee still!" With Se our friend Bill Arp we may well exclaim: "WoDian, she am a good egg!" Next Wednesday night the 18 society will discuss the query, "Resolved, that the United States is justified in waging war in the Philippines." A married woman was insulted in a grievous manner last week, near this place, by a negro. Although P( no actual violence was attempted, ^ our indignant citizens spoke mena cingly of Judge Lynch. Justice McMillan sent the miscreant to Bamberg jail. A number of our _ leading citizens happen to know him, C and they assure me that the fellow v" is demented, uud will ultimately be sent to the asylum. Rev. Mr. Chisholm, of Varnville, preaches 011 the first Saturday and , Sunday of each month at Olar Bap tist Church.
