The best thing that has happened for Augusta in many a day was the purchase of The Chronicle last week by H. H. Cabaniss and T. W.

Let the present city fathers continue to improve the streets of our city. * * * Major Hays, the retiring mayor, has left a monument to himself in the shape of several good streets and sidewalks, on which permanent and much-needed work was done during his term of office. Let the new city fathers make as fine a record. * * We have no suggestions to offer our new city council as to electric lights and waterworks. We have discussed these two improvements enough for the present we think, but we do want to see permanent work done on the streets and sidewalks. * * * The decision of the United States treassury department that Crum, the negro collector of the port in Charleston, is not entitled to any fees or expenses of his office until confirmed by the Senate, fully sustains the contention of the Charleston people that the appointment was an illegal one. ** The bicycle scorcher is much in evidence in Bamberg these days. The rapid "b pace at which many riders travel the sider'-' walks is positively dangerous.

Ehrhardt, May 10.?A small crowd from our little town eDjoyed a fish fry at Howell's old mill last Wednesday. There was quite an abundance of fish for dinner and a very nice lot of trout were brought home. J. Pinckney Matheny, Esq., of our sister town, Bamberg, spent a day and night in ;V Ehrhardt last week, the guest of A. C. Reynolds. By order of the town council, C. Ehrhardt, intendant, has built on his lot next to the old stand of the Ehrhardt Millinery Co., a nice beef market of four separate rooms or divisions. One of these rooms will be rented to any one who wishes to sell beef or any other marketable produce. .? John Kearse, a negro man of notoriety, t went into the room of Messrs. Edwin , and John Frank Chassereau while they were at supper Saturday night and helped himself to several articles of some value. He was caught right away after supper, and put in the guard house with chains about bis feet, which were locked to the floor. It was thought that he wa9 secure. Some friends put something through the *r\ Kim on/1 thio mnminor it wQfi 11UU UCkl Vv UlUi auu fUiu Uiv**4?u^ *? " found that be bad prized tbe chains up from tbe floor, knocked off a board, and made bis escape. He must have gotten away with difficulty, as he had to walk with the two large chains locked about his ankles. The guard house is some distance from any residence or place of business, which is the reason that no one - v heard the noise that he must have made in effecting his escape. Dr. Holland Carter, of Smoaks, was in town last week, the guest ot Dr. J. H. / Roberts. St. Julian Carwyle, of* the Geer Drug Co., called on A. C. Reynolds one day last week. Prof. Frank Folk and family spent his days of rest from Friday to Sunday afternoon with his mother of Folks. Mr. Henry Lightsey, of Crocketville, was the guest of Miss Rubie Murdaugh last Sunday. F. M. Pooser, of Bamberg, stopped over at J. A. Chassereau's one day last week on his way from Walterboro to Bamberg. Mr. Henry Ehrhardt has employed a crew of carpenters from Ehrhardt to do the wood work at the large saw mill that he is putting up just below Lodge. Mrs. A. C. Reynolds and Mrs. J. F. Fender spent the first of last week in Bamberg with Mrs. J. M. Jennings. The annual Sunday-school picnic will be held at Mt. Pleasant Lutheran church on Thursday, May 21st, and everybody is invited to" attend. The speakers for the day are Rev. J. P. Miller, of Orangeburg, and Rev. E. P. Munroe, the present pastor. The welcome address will be delivered by Mr. Conrad Hartz. Lemonade by the barrel. Ge Col. Killing in Barnwell. Barnwell, May 11.?Willie Lutz was shot and killed Sunday afternoon by Toy Sanders, near the latter's home four mile's from Baruwell. For some time previous to the homicide the parties had been uufriendly, and this, it seems, resulted in a fight some days ago wherein defendant was severely beaten b^ deceased, and later resulting in the tragedy as above. Deceased is a son of Mr. Jas. Lutz, a planter living near towu, while defendant is a son of Rev. F. J. Sanders, a well known Baptist preacher. Coroner's jury N rendered the usual verdict. Defendant is in jail. A Sore Ttiiug. It is said that nothing is sure but death and taxes, but that is uot altogether true. Dr. King's new discovery forconsumption is a sure cure for lung and throat troubles. Thousands can testify to that. Mrs. C. B. VanMetre, Shepherdtowu, W.

Even as in the lives of men, do golden opportunities come in the lives of many towns. In some men's lives the opportune moment presents itself when manhood's bloom is yet imperfected; the young man with a young man's natural ambition seizes his chance, makes the best of it, and is consequently successful. So now it is with Bamberg, a young town just in the bloom of young manhood, this chance is even now presenting itself, and we believe from all appearances that Bamberg will not let her chance for development in all lines pass by unheeded. With a new graded school building to be built, and the sanitary conditions of the town in a comparatively good condition, will come new residents, and with an increase of inhabitants will come an increase of trade; thus will we grow and expand. But without a system of waterworks how can we hope that our new residents will be willing to invest their money in buildings which will grace our ?l..iniiifr trtU'll V Prtf 11A oriO 1C U'lllillff tit I Li I IV iUg tv n u . x- v/? xx v vwv w invest his money unless he has some guarantee that it will be protected. So let our new city council have as their tirst purpose the establishment of a system of waterworks. Our council which is going out has done a good and lastiug work in the matter of establishing good roads in and about our town; the}' have brought trade to our town by this work. Now let it be the aim of the incoming council to keep this up and to make people stay here permanently by making other material improvements. We cannot invite people to invest unless we have some protection to offer iu return. Now is Bamberg's opportune time. She will either grow or decay from now ou, and it may be as the citizens* of the town wish. \V hich will it be, growth or decay? Contributed. Hartzog Happenings.

At the May term of the circuit court in Orangeburg last week Mr. F. W. Fairey was acquitted on the charge of murder for the killing of Mr. N. G. Heape at Branchville on March 3, the Court directing a verdict of not guilty on the testimony offered by the State. Mr. Fairey was a stepson of Mr. Heape and owned the house occupied by Mr. Heape and his family. Mr. Heape was an engineer on the Southern Railroad and a man who was well thought of and well behaved unless under the influence of drink, which he indulged in periodically. The day before he was killed Mr. Heape smashed up the furniture in his house and threatened to burn it down, and Mrs. i Heape, with her children, left home, tak-1 iog refuge in the house of her daughter, who lived next door. The following morning Mr Reape began shooting and cursing and terrorizing the neighborhood. Mr. Fairey had always been on very good terms with his stepfather, and desiring to quiet him, consulted his friends, and securing his gun went to the yard to see what he could accomplish. On the way to the house Mr. Heape tired at the party with a shotgun. Fairey finally got into the yard and got possession of Heape's rifle. Heape then came from the back lot with his shotgun, and Mrs. Heape ran out of her daughter's house and called to her son that Heape was coming and would kill him. This infuriated Heape, and turning with an oath he levelled his gun on his wife. At this Fairey stepped from the side of the house and called to Heape: "Hold on." Turning then upon Fairey he said: "Damn you, I will get you this time." Fairey fired. Heape's gun snapped, and he fell dead. Mr. Fairey, who is now a law student in the office of Capt Kellev, at Kingstree, is a bright young man, and has alway borne a good reputation. He was represented by Judge James F. Izlar, Raysor & Summers, H. H. Brunson and Capt J. A. Kelley. Richard Sweat, colored, was charged with the murder of Anna Evans, colored, in Branchville, on the morning of January 19. The evidence was circumstantial and strong, but not sufficient to convince the iin-T- on/i Riohonl VL'QC AOrttlif t.f*d TIlP j "*j? ??"? " 1 woman lived with her children at the house of Sweat, who was her protector and adviser and manager of her property, about $1,200 obtained from insurauce on the life of her husband who died recently. She was shot through a hole in the side of the house whileshe was dressing. Sweat claimed that he was in the room, and immediatly ran out and snapped his gun at two men who ran off in the woods. His wife, who was in the next room, said she saw him run out when the gun tired. Other witnesses who were in the neighborhood saw no men running after the shot, and there were no tracks leading up to and away from the house. A single-barrelled gun, found concealed in the house, had been recently fired. It was shown that several of the State's witnesses "had it in for" Sweat, and there was insufficient : proof of motive. !

The proprietor of a certain restaurant had "leased" the reverse side of his bill of fare to a certain carriage manufacturer, who prints his advertisements theron. The other day a customer in a great hurry ran into the restaurant, sat at a table and was handed a bill wrong side up by the flurried waiter. The customer put on his pince-nez, curled his mustache with his left hand and shouted in a voice of thunder: "Bring me a fly, a landau, two victorias and a dogcart! "Got any wheel-barro\v9V" The waiter fled. The Wastes of the Body. Every seven days the blood, muscles and bones of a man of average size loses two pounds of woruout tissue.

Doubtful About the Future. The boy was all right, notwithstanding his girly curls and a fond mother who was deathly afraid he was going to bectfme coarse and vulgar and in other respects masculine. Oue day a gentleman calling at the house engaged hint in conversation. "Well, my boy," he said after a time, "what are you going to be when you grow up?" The boy studied the question a moment. "Really," he replied at last, "I don't know. I suppose I ought to be a man, but from the way mamma is handling me I'm almost afraid I'm going to be a lady." (Juiek Arrest. ,T. A.

Dr. Patton was delivering a lecture recently in his course ou ethics at the Princeton Theological Seminary and experienced much annoyance because some of the students ate peanuts instead of attending to him. Finally he administered this rebuke: "Gentlemen, I have delayed starting the most important part of to-day's lecture hoping that the stock of peanuts would be consumed aud a restful quiet restored. As the quantity seems ample to meet the demands and the supply appears inexhaustible, I feel constrained to request that your appetites be restrained until the conclusion of the lecture. I would be greatly pleased if in the future anyone wishing to conduct a 5 o'clock tea in the class room would conflne the refreshments to sponge cake." Too Great a Risk. In almost every neighborhood someone has died from an attack of colic or cholera morbus, often before medicine could be procured or a physician summoned. Are liable remedy for these diseases should be kept at haud. The ri9k is too great for anj'one to take. Chamberlain's colic, cholera and diarrhoea remedy has saved the lives of more people and relieved more pain and suffering than any other medicine in use. It can always be depended upon.

The youthful limb of the law wound up his peroration by remarking: "Why, your Honor, that precedent was established when the stars first sang together." "Well," said the Judge; "it will cost you $10 for being at that concert. I deny your motion." GRE ATLY "ALARMED By a Persistent Cough but Permanently Cured by Chamberlain's Remedy. Mr. H. P.
