lie was an ng-

Quite a large excursion party went
from the Carolina Midland and Port

Augusta, last Thursday afternoon, to
attend an operatic performance. Re
turning at 2 a. m. Friday they tound the
trestle across Mr. James C. Brown’s
mill pond blazing from e d to end.
There the excur-ionists were delayed
until day light, when an improvised
train of box cars frqtn Alle dale ar
rived and gave them transportation
homeward. The Barnwell contingent
arrived after breakfast time'.
Some of the pi-sei gers believe that
the fire was vet by woul I betral » wreck

'flie train had fortunately stopped at
Averill, a fiag station, to let off a pas

saw the blazing tr?*t)e.and brought Ms
TFut-n to a halt. Ext for the stop at
Averill tlie train, running over forty
miles an hour, could hardly have been
stopped between the curve, where the
fire could be seen first, and the trestle,
and would probably have plunged with
its three hundred passengers inte, the

The Annual Interdenominational 8.
S. Convention of Barnwell county was
a decided success. A rapid stride in
p-ogress of S. :*• work can be noted,
i he Sunday Schoo's are upon a strong
er foundation than ever before, and
they are developing quite rapidly. We
nrj proud to .knovy that our 8. S. re
ports were as favorable as any repre-
aented, though we are comparatively
small In number to some schools repre
sented. But we feel encouraged, with
our w’ork, and with God’s help we will
endeavor to do inofe each year for the
cause of S. S. work. The weather- w as
very favorable when we reached Bam
berg, blit it was quite to the reverse
when we left. Bamberg is a lovely
town, and we ma# truly say,“the half
lias Sever yet been told” of her beamy,
wideistreets, handsome residences, and
good artesian waier making it a pretty
town. Above all are the bospiutble
people, who open hearts and homes and
welcome you. Our delegates were en
tertained at the home of Mr. Ben
Thompson, who seemed to exert them
selves for our pleasure. We shall al
ways remember their kindness. From
beginning to end it was a most im
pressive meeting; niort of the reports
snowed encouragii.^
xeal. -But l must say I think there were
tOo many absent who were to tal»e pait
In the exercise*. The music was very
good, both vo.tal and Instrumental.
We had the pleasure of visiting the
.acjiooiA of the town, and well may we
compliment Xhe people for having two
such excellent Institutions in their
midst as ihe Carlisle Kitting School,
add the Bamberg Graded School, both
siid to bedoing an excellent work, and
from all appearances we believe It.
There was also much real pleasure oiit-
sfde of the convention. We shall e>er
remember, with pleasure our visit to
Bamberg. ' We found no church there
of our denomination, but hope our
church will be represented In this love
ly place some day.

lost a constant and punctual scholar-
one who was always Attentive and. well
behaved while in the house of God.
Resol ved 3d. That we do take courage
In our work for the Master, for in the
Case of Perry Rountree our young

Mr. James M. Brabham died at bis
home In Three Mile township on Tues
day evening last, of heart disease, in
the S5th year of liis life. He was a son
drMr. Joseph Brabham,'and an elder
brother of the late Maj. J. J. Brabham.
Upwaids of sixty years .ago lie bought
tlie place on w hich lie lived up to the
time of his death, and a few years later
married the gowl wife who wa# more
than tliree score years a help-meet, and
who is left alone by his departure to
tjie better land.
God gave them no children, but they
adopted all humanity as their kindred
and for more than two generations did
they together dispense the gentle sym
pathy of kindly deeds, of tender com-
for^of w ords to cure the aching pains
of sorrow and keep the sweet gospel of
peiice in the hearts of all that knew and
loved and triHtfd them. Not until the
la-t day oAn all the good that has gone
from that Open home be counted up, all
the good fruits gathered that were
grown from tile seeds they had scatter
ed during their long pilgrimage.
Mr. Brabham hail been (since early
manhood a member ol the Methodist
church; his house was the home of Us
ministers, and he was constant in his
loving service to that mother.
For seve al weeks be had been unwell
and his kindred, arid friends knew that
the end was near, but it came sooner
than was expected. Gently asacliilff
sink* to sleep on the mother’* breast he
yielded his spirit to (lie Maker when
culled to the home eternal.
Resolved '6th. That the bereavfM
families each have our sincere and
heartfelt sympathy in their great af
fliction, ant! that a copy of these,.pre
amble and resolutions, be tendered
them, and that they be published in
our County papers and that a blank
jutge In our minute book be inscribed to
the memory of each of our lost ones.

Editor People :
Some week or so ago your Blackville
correspondent made mention of the re
union of Hart’s Battery at Holman’s
bridge on the classic Edisto. Now in.
fir tlie ranee of Ms mention, I will say
that It is one of the bjD'at places I know
of to hold the reunion; (railroad facili
ties are complete for persons coming
from all directions; just on this side of
the bridge is an old field covered with
green grass and shaded with pine sap
lings and large water qaks; the still
ness of the night made merry by th*
rippling of the water meandering its
way down to the Atlantic coast, and the
day made pleasant by the interchange
of w.ar incidents and the Visiting friends
of the survivors.
The committee of arrangements say
JJie neca <Nary tents can be procured and
tne location seems to have the hearty
meits will be made for a bountiful sup
ply of fish fop all-present.

The Epworth Orphanage of the South
Carolina Methodist Conference w ill be
located about a mile from Columbia.
The-propcrty there donated to the Con
ference consists > qf th6 Sima place of
25 acres, on which there is a $3,500 brick
residence, and Hie Baughman place of
101 j acres adjoining, all valued at $12,-
oar to $15,000.
Twelve buildings ate to be put up
quickly and later on a home for aged
Methodist Ministers. The Conference
proposes to make an outlay of $100,000
in buildipgs alone.
Somebody has said that the seven
years of famine mentioned in the Bible,
followed by seven years.of plenty, have
been repeated rmnyAime* since, and
that in this country with, the present
vear 1895, we are entering upon the
seven years of plenty. We hope so.
TlirHabit of Saving.
The French suffer leU .from pantex
and depressions than arrj; .other people
on the globe, and it is because thrift is
tbe baaia of thei^ prosperity.
In France nearly every person saves
something for a rainy day. The habit
is almost universal, and UiOse who earn
the least are sure to be found in this
great saving class. The French saving
banks have more than 8,000,000 depos
itors, and their deposits amount to
about $800,000,000, and this large sum
is made up of email accounts.
The French schools teach the chil
dren to save money, an<L the most fre
quent prize given to a bright pupil U a
saving bank book with a small eum to
the credit of tlie owner. This is given
where in this country we would give a
medal or a book. . -
When a community her*a lot of mon
ey deposited in saving banks it is easy
‘o borrow money without going to out
side capitali-ts. The local banks are
prepared to lend to home people at a
moderate interest. Ir. the large cities
and factory towns of the Eastern States
the saving banks are the great safe-
f uard of the poor wage-earners against
haid times, and if the saving habit
was as general here as it is in Trance,
ouryeoplp would have passed through
the recent financial depression without
seriously feeling it. v • .
Every child should be taught the im
portance of saving without being avar
icious and niggardly. We need more
thrift. The average American wage-
earner wastes enough in his lifetime to
make him,comfortable in, his old age.
We should take a lesson from the-
French in this respect. They know
how to enjoy life and at the same time
work hard and save mouey.

‘ It is estimated that the cold waves of
the last winter and the present Spring
have damaged the farmers and fruit
growers of the United State* anywdiere
from forty to fifty million dollars.
Last week’s cold visitor did immense
damage up North. It killed the New
York grape crop that averages $2,000,-
000 to the growers ot that section, great
ly damaged the peach crops of Mich
igan and Delejware, seriously injured
corn in the North West and destroyed
much of the wintor wheat in Northern
Illinois, Wisconsin and Iowa.
The Journal of the House of Repre
sentatives .for the session of 1881-82
show* that a good many of the then
legislator* had about the same opinion
of the Registration law that Judge
Goff has now. At one time the bill was

and after some days finally passed by a
