The idea of giving up the services at the Methodist church next Sunday niornI - ing to the educational institutions of the town is a good one, and can be carried out with the utmost propriety. Educacation and Christianity should go baud in |v: hand, and we trust a large crowd of .> '. young folk9 and older ones too will attend the services, to which they are cordially invited. fit."***?

Meeting Board of Health. i At a meeting of the board of health j held last Thursday afternoon the following resolutions were adopted: Resolved, That it is the unqualified opinion of this board that it is detri- ( mental in the highest degree to the health : of the town to allow hogs within the incorporate limits at any season and within lots of any size. This question has been ' seriously considered by the board, and . they are unalterably opposed to any 1 action which would allow hogs within the town, and they recommend to the citizens that in voting at the election 1 which has been ordered by councilt that J they maturely consider the matter, and in this connection statistics show that there ; has been less typhoid fever and other diseases arising from animal matter in ; town since the removal of hogs than be- , fore. Resolved, That in the opinion of the board, a health officer is absolutely needed, and should be at the service of the board continuously, and not for any limited j period, and the board earnestly recom- i mend to council thatlbev make this office i a permanent one, to be filled by an annual election, the officer to hold his office for ' one year, subject to removal for cause by action of council upon the recommenda * - i?

Frank Maynard, a colored youth of seventeen years, came near meeting his ah last Fridav niirht. As it is. his right arm is gone, and some severe bruises are on his head. This is, as far as we can learn, the result of carelessness on his part. When the seven-forty night train had drawn up at the depot, some one near the bank saw a body lying on the edge of the track and heard groans coming from that direction. When he got to the negro, he was unconscious; other people were attracted to the scene; doctors were summoned and the negro removed to the office of doctor Brouson. Here the badly mangled arm was amputated and the other wounds dressed. Maynard did not regain consciousness until Saturday mining. When asked how it happened, Uf said that he did not remember anything but that he was standing on the steps of the train with two other boys who had come with him from Midway, and that he had paid bis fare from that place to Bamberg; they had come to meet the excursion which had gone to Savannah iu the morning. As he was picked up about ten feet from the switch gate which leads to the cotton platform, it is commonly supposed that he was getting off the train before it had stopped and that he came in contact with the gate which threw him under the wheels.

The sound which comes to our ears daily is that of hammer and saw; as it reaches us we make our interpretation of the sound and it is: ''Invest, iuvest," and the saw keeping time with the hammer says in reply "It will pay." The sign of activity on every side is an invitation for an investment of your money in Home industry. Any one going the rounds of our town these days will be struck with the signs v* activity to be seen on every side, activity which means improvement, not easygoiug carelessness. The work down at the oil mill has placed that enterprise above all nearby competitors for the cotton seed trade and giuniug. Seven gins of seventy saws each have recently been placed uuder one roof, and the business being done is very gratifying to the directors. Between seventy and eighty bales are daily ginned. 1 The repairs at the cotton mills have , been thorough, the plant being renovated ] from top to bottom. The boilers have been , changed in position, being placed on a new foundation, and new furnaces have i been built. A reservoir of 100,000 gallons , has been constructed, this being a long- needed necessity. Everything is being ( put in splendid condition, and when the j hum of the wheels begins again on the first of October there will be no hitch. The resetting of the boilers aud other improvements are being carried on under the supervision of Mr. Miscally of the Riverside Iron Works of Charleston. i The larire stable of G. Frank Bamberg ; is being added to on a large scale. A building 58 feet by 108 feet is being built just in rear of his sale stables and will reach back to his other stable, making room for the accommodation of two hundred head of horses. The upper story of the building will be occupied by buggies and carriages. This speaks well for our town, for it shows that the citizens have faith in the future of the city and do not hesitate to invest their money. The young men's dormitory of the Fitting School has undergone a considerable amount of improvement during the] summer. The place has been fixed up on the inside, and new iron beasteads placed in all the rooms. The campus is being mowed and cleaned and when school opens next Wednesday,the Fitting School ? campus will present a good appearance. ^ The stores of Messrs. Counts and 1 Pearlstine are being pushed to completion J and will be ready for occupancy in a short while. The material for the stores of 1 Messrs. H. C. and J. F. Folk has been < placed on their lot and work will very probably begin shortly. 1 The Southern Railway will no doubt 1 place a new fence around the flower garden at. the depot before long. The * old one has about served its purpose, aud a new one is next in order. 1 m ! Our Cotton Market. ^ The Orangeburg papers take issue with ( :he statement that Bamberg's buyers pay higher prices for cotton than those in l Orangeburg, and cite in support of their contention the fact that an Orangeburg buyer bought cotton on this market and had it shipped over there. They ask why should this buyer have come to Bamberg 1 to buy cotton and paid the freight on it j to Orangeburg if be could nave oougni 11 3u that market at a lower price. The most reasonable explanation of this is that the buyer mentioned could not get the cotton in Orangeburg. The staple was not coining to market as rapidly as it this point, aud he bought it here because it was ueeded right away and it was not obtainable there. Our information is that one of the cotton mills there wauted the cotton, and wanted it at once. Possibly the higher prices being paid j bere explains why the receipts here have been larger than at other points. } An Abrupt Departure. i Because he thought it more profitable from a financier's standpoint to pocket J the money received for a bale of cotton, . than to stay home and pay his debts, J Daniel Jackson, a negro who lived out at . "Crouch Hole," left friends, family, and J property to seek other lands. Jackson 1 was a trusty negro, well thought of and very thrifty. By honest work he had ac- ! cumulated some property and at the same J time a record which invited the trust of those with whom he dealt to be imposed in him. Considerable surprise was expressed by those who knew him, when 1 they heard of his abrupt disappearance. 1 But debts accumulated must be paid off either with honest pay or by the sacrifice of a good name. 1 Suecial Notice.

Our Edacatioual Institutions. Among the institutions in our town which should be the pride of our citizens are the Carlisle Fitting School and the graded school. Prof. H. G. Sheridan, a teacher of twenty-three years' experience in successful school work, is the Head Master of the one; and Prof. N. M. Salley, a teacher of six years' successful work in the school-room, is the principal of the other. These institutions are great factors contributing to the manhood and womanhood of our young people. They both deserve and expect the support of our people. Tuition in the one necessarily is $17.50 per session ; in the other it is free, being supported by taxation. We do not hesitate to say that both these institutions ought to be supported by our people. The graded school will be supported. The question is: Will the Fitting School be supported? We understand that last year fifty-eight young people came from other sections of the State to obtain the train ing there offered ; from the town of Bamberg came ten. We learn that those who have finished the graded school can obtain an advanced course in mathematics, physics, literature, history, Latin and Greek in the Post-Senior class at the Fitting School. This then is an excellent opportunity for those who do not go from graded school to college to complete their education at the Fitting School. Then the advantages of literary societies and libraries are important in the training of our young people. Fine advantages are offered in the music department uuder Miss Watson, an experienced teacher. We hope to see a larger attendance from the town, showing to those on the outside that Bamberg takes pride in this institution and that it is considered as a part of iher educational system. Through Prof. Sheridan an invitation is extended to all j who are interested in the institution to be present Wednesday, September 23rd, 11 a. m. ' Notice.?Mr L. A.

Owes His Life to Neighbor's Kindness. D. P. Dougherty, well known throughout Mercer and Sumner counties, W. \ a., most likely owe9 his life to the kindness of a neighbor. He was almost hopelessly afflicted with diarrhoea; was attended by two physicians who gave him little, if any, relief, when a neighbor brought him a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic Cholera, and Diarrhoea Remedy, which eured him in les9 than twenty-four hours.

C., going to Charleston ran into the rear end of the passenger train from Columbia, which is due here at 5:30. The passenger train was standing at the ilepot and the air brakes of the excursion train, which wa9 running second section, failed to work. When the engineer blew the distress signal and reversed his engine the load being so great that the engine did, striking the rear end of the passeng ar train.
