Herald and News in its remarks on
the fire company and the public.
About the most annoying and provoking
thing to undergo and endure
is for a collector to be told to "come '
again", by men who could pay at the J
time. It is all right for him to be
put off by one who is not able to pay j
just at that time. But some men like \
to give one all the trouble they can. j
They never seem to think his time is
limited and that he has something els*
to do.

A message came to Newberry on
Wednesday morning giving Auditor
Eugene S. Werts and other relatives
much uneasiness and anxiety until the
mistake was found out. It seems that
a colored man by the name of Werts
had dropped dead in Richmond on
Tuesday morning. That was about
the time Mr. D. P. Werts expected to
be in that city. The message came to
Prof. Clarence L. Werts. It was intended
for Belton Werts, colored,
whose brother was the man dropping
dead. But there once was a Mr. Belton
Werts in Newberry and it was not
strange that the message did not at
first get into the right hands.

Death of Mr. J. S. Salter.
Mr. Jesse Sh~ppard Salter died at
his old home at Helena on Wednesday
night at 11.30, having arrived only a
couple of hours before on the Cannon
Ball train. He had come to visit his
relatives and ser? if the trip would oe
beneficial to his health, which was
bad and had been for several years.
He was very weak and the trip was
too much for him in his enfeebled condition;
he reached home completely
exhaust-d. Mr. Salter was accompanied
by his family, and also by his
brother, Mr. DeWitt Salter, who met
them in Atlanta, on their way trom
Niceville, Fla. where Mr. Salter had
been resting from his work on vacation.
His home was in Lake City,
Fla., having lived there since lie left
Spartanburg. Before ^oing to Spartanburg
he spent about five years in
Athens, Ga., where he located upon
leaving Xewberry, and where he married
\ficc Wpl.cn \"iohr?l<? whn survives
him with two little sons, Sheppard
and J. Z., his oldest child, an only
daught-r, having died about two years
ago at the age of about three years.
His surviving sisters are Miss Elizabeth
Salter, of the city; Mrs. Arthur
Kibler, of Helena; Mrs. E. C. Witt, of
Newberry, and Miss Minnie Salter, of
this city. His brothers are: Messrs.
A T^QW iff Qo1_
OcillCl, U1 L11C V/ltjr , T? 1U KjtJL*.[er,
of Atlanta; LeRoy Salter, of the
2itv, and Clarence Salter, of Chattanooga,
all of whom are present for
the funeral.
Mr. Salter was 34 years old. He
was a son of the late J. Z. and S. E.
Salter, of Helena, and grandson of the
late John Sheppard, of Helena. The
Iopoqcph inherited tho nronounced and
narked resp-ectability and quiet demeanor
of his parents and was a
?ood man. His father and mother left
him a good name which he has handed
down to his children.
The funeral service will'be conducted
it the old home on Friday morning at
).30 o'clock, by the Rev. J. E. Carlisle;
interment in Rosemont ceme:ery.
A Suggested State Ticket
Bamberg Herald..
Speaking of a State ticket for next
pear, an ideal one to our mind would
3e composed of newspaper men, say
something like this: For gov-ernor,
Harry L. Watson; lieutenant governor,
Ed. H. DeCamp; secretary of
State, William Banks; comptroller
general, Mason C. Brunson; superin
:endent of education, E. H. Aull;
State treasurer, August Kohn. Under
present conditions it would be a
nighty fine thing to eliminate all facions
in South Carolina and put in a
set of newspaper men all round,
rhey'd certainly make a record for
;he old State, too.
O'Seall Street M. E. Church.
Rev. A. M. Gardner, the pastor, has
*eturned from a short vacation. Mrs.
Gardner and children are still away,
