He has opened his law office over Bamberg Banking Company, on Main street, in the offices formerly occupied by Ernest E. Ritter, Esq. Cotton seed bought at J. D. Copeland's by W. G. Hutto. He will pay. you good prices, so see him before you sell. Last Friday morning about three o'clock the alarm of fire was sounded, and it was found to be the barn of Oscar Glover, a negro, in the Southwestern part of town. The fire evidently originated from spontaneous combustion, as Glover had been hauling in a lot of hay. J. R. Kinard & Co. sell buggies and harness. They will be glad to quote prices. I By reference to his ad. in another column, it will be seen that Mr. G. A. Lucas, the piano and organ man, has moved his headquarters to Aiken. This will put him in closer touch with Bamberg, and he solicits the continued favors of our citizens, promisir?cr +Vio camo fmnH sprvine as hereto . fore. 4 We have just received a machine for manufacturing buttons, and will be glad to make them to match any piece of goods, price 25 cents a dozen.

We have just made arrangements with The American Ladies' Tailoring Co. to handle their celebrated line of made to order suits, skirts, and coats. Prices reasonable; fit guaranteed. KLAUBER'S, Bamberg and Denmark. A telegram was received here Tuesday afternoon, addressed to the mother of Joe Padgett, stating that he had been shot and was in the Grady hospital in Atlanta. No other particulars were given, so that is all that is known about the matter. We looked over the Atlanta Journal for both Monday and Tuesday afternoons, but found nothing in it about s .raugtJll ueiug suui. mo ujuluci ICH for Atlanta Tuesday night. The telegram did not state how he was shot or how badly wounded he was. Death of Little Harold Free. r Harold, the six-year-olc son of Clerk of Court C. B. Free, died at the home of his father in this city last Friday afternoon about three o'clock, after a short illness. The little fellow was strong and well up to the time of his illness, but although everything possible was done, death ended his suffering, as stated above. The funeral services and burial took place Saturday morning at ten o'clock at Springtown church, the services being conducted by Rev. 0. J. Frier, pastor of the Bamberg Baptist church. Harold was a son by Mr. Free's former marriage, his mother being a Miss Stephens. _ _ . v ... . _ .. j. ...... . _ " New Advertisements. H. C. Folk, Master?Sale of real estate in the case of E.

The September meeting of the Woman's Home Mission Society will be held next Tuesday afternoon at four o'clock in the ladies' parlor of the Methodist church. One member remarked, "The Home Mission Society has been summering it out of town." That is partly true, but mostly untrue, for in spite of the fact that the July and August meetings were necessarily not so large in attendance, yet the work has been maintained, we might say with usual vigor, for the reason that during these two months there has come an unusual number of calls for the sick and needy. Let us have a large number present at this meetine. and renew our efforts to the great work that lies before us. Our president cannot meet the demand single-handed; she must have the faithful support of each member of the auxiliary if she is to attain the best results. Road Being Worked. We understand that the supervisor of Orangeburg county is now at work on the road from here to Orangeburg. he working the section near W. O. Tatum's at present. Bamberg citizens should get in touch with Orangeburg and have the road through the river swamp put in good [ condition. No doubt Orangeburg county will do the work on her side I of the swamp if Bamberg will do the necessary work on this side. We ought to have that automobile highway to follow this route, but we must get busy and do something. Waterworks Inspected. Mr. W. W. Lyon, of Jacksonville, Fla., engineer of the waterworks system here, was in the city last Friday to inspect the work already done. Pressure was put on the mains by the pumps at the power house, and the mains were tested up to 150 pounds pressure. Mr. Lyon expressled himself as well pleased with the job and said the pipe laying was an ' honest piece of work. He was also pleased with the work of the fire pumps at the station. Work has be| gun on the reservoir, and in a short | time a well will be put down to furnish water for the system. However, property on Main street can be protected now in case of Sre, as water can be obtained from the resiervoir of the cotton mill. Water onnrco napH for testinsr 4.1 Will I.UIO 0VU1VV ?? * >- WW- ? ? w the mains. The commissioners of public works have purchased one thousand feet of hose, which is stored at the power station, and it is now up to city council to buy hand reels for this hose, obtain a hook and ladder truck, and organize a fire department. The big tank is expected here next month, but water will be available at the town plant as soon as the reservoir is completed and the well bored. This work will be finished in about three weeks. Offered Fitting School. As soon as the local board of the Carlisle Fitting School heard of the fire which destroyed Columbia College, they wired to President Daniel and offered the use of the Carlisle Fitting School buildings. Dr. Daniel wired his thanks for the offer, but the board of trustees at their meeting last Friday, decided to use the Colonia Hotel in Columbia as a dormitory and the class rooms of the University of South Carolina will be used. The college will open as usual, and the building fund is being raised. The Cotton Market. Cotton is selling in Bamberg to-day (Wednesday) at twelve cents the pound, and the farmers seem to be pleased with this price. The receipts continue heavy, twelve hundred bales or more being received this week. Nearly three thousand bales have been marketed here so far this season. Our farmers will find that Bamberg 1 ill _ 1 +V.Q uuyers win aiwavs ya> me ivp market, and it is a fact that as a rule the market here is higher than surrounding towns. Robbery Tuesday Morning. Tuesday morrning of this week, about two o'clock, some one broke the large plate glass show window in the hardware store of J. A. Hunter with a brick and took therefrom two double barrel shot shot guns, both of them being high-priced. The store was not entered and nothing else from the window was taken. There is no clue so far to the thief. No doubt the reason the thief was so bold was that the electric lights were out that morning, on account of the big belt at the power house having to be taken up, so the plant was stmt down about one o ciock Tuesday morning and the belt shortened, in order to give it time to dry so that the service would be interrupted as little as possible. It will be remembered that only a few months ago the window at the Simmons Hardware Company was broken on two occasions and several shot guns stolen. The robbers steal guns only. -i-". . ~ $ Meeting of Farmers' Union. Ehrhardt, S. C., Sept. 6, 1909. Editor Bamberg Herald?Dear Sir: A Will you please state through the columns of your paper that there will be a public meeting of the Farmers' Union of Bamberg county at the rr court bouse in Bamberg on Thurs- a: day, September 30th, 1909, at eleven o o'clock a. m., to which all farmers tl and business men are invited. We ei hope to have good speakers. s: Yours truly, p j. e. mcmillan, m Sec. and Treas. for Bamberg County, h' n Missionary Rally at Carter's Ford. 0 cl The W. M. U. of Carter's Ford Baptist church will have a mission- tl ary rally at Carter's Ford church on n; the third Sunday, September 19, 1909. Miss Haynes will speak to the congregation about State missions. She is an experienced worker, and we will be glad to have her with us and rl hear what she has to say. Every- n< body is invited. Dinner will be serv- G ed on the grounds, and the regular tl services will take place in the afternoon. ADA CLAYTON. C Now for a Fire Department. The laying of pipes, the blocking a of streets, and the placing of hy- b; drants, and all the other things nec- h< essar to a water works system, hav- b< ing been completed to the point ed where they, can be utilized for fight- tl ing fire, the question now up to the g< citizens of Bamberg is to have a reg- tl ular organized volunteer fire depart- ji ment. a< At a meeting of the city council o last week it was decided to issue a w call to the citizens of the town for y Monday evening, September 20th, to m form an organization which shall be a permanent one. The meeting will hi be held in the court house, as the di seats have not yet been placed in the w city hall. The hour has been set for half past eight, and it is hoped that a large crowd will be present. Some other plans will probably come up ber -a: c? J : lure tut; meeting iui uistussiuu, sum as dividing the city into wards, the B erection of an alarm bell, and such others as may be incident to such a g< meeting. b< The work done in the past years b< by the men of the town in fighting ul fire, when there was little to fight Ss with, is a sure guarantee that the de- S< partment when systematized will be n< one of the best amateur teams in the ei State. Heretofore only bucket bri- se gades have been available for the most part, but now that a full equip- S( ment of hose is on hand, with the fa prospect of purchasing ladders and ai reels in the near future, the condi- ti< jtions which naturally existed where I there is no fire department, will be changed, and there will be no reason | why a building in reach of the long t hose should be even badly damaged. As soon as the department is in working order and has all its equipments, Bamberg will doubtless have " its insurance rates materially reduc- ?c ed. * Remember the call for next Mon- Aday evening in the court house at 8:30 o'clock.
