The time for sowing wheat depends on
the fall weather. It is always believed
that it may be sown as soon as a killing
frost comes. As a general thing the prop.
er time is October 20th to November 20th.
, If land is prepared well it may be sown
- rapidly with some improved harrows.
fPoR Sale.?Twenty-five bushels seed

Corn has been selling for the past few
v years at from 40c to 75c per bushel, not
oi- often at the latter figure. "\yrheat always
brings $1 per bushel?and generally $1.25.
Wheat is as productive on an average as
corn, and requires muph less labor to
m^ke than com, Therefore, we say sow
wheat, "both to sell and keep."

Mrs. M. 13. Hartzog had a narrow escape
from being run over by a loose
horse on the streets last Monday. The
hprse was hitched in the rear "of Dr.
'"* Black's store, and. becoming frightened
from some cause, broke loose. Mrs.
Hartzog was on the sidewalk near Pearlstin's
store, and the horse dashed by her
twice in rapid succession, each time coming
dangerously near. Had not Mrs.
Hartzog placed herself jam up against
the fence she would no doubt have been
trampled to death, as the animal was
seemingly panic stricken, and after passing
her the second time, ran against an
awning post in front of Mr. Thos. Black's
store. The blow knocked him down,
and he-was then caught.

Monday night about ten o'clock. It q

All the churches save three were e

the Association. The collection 011 e
Sunday for missions was the largest c
sver taken. t
The introductory sermon was ?
preaehed on Thursday by Rev, A. g
r. Turner, of Blackville. The miS' s
sionary sermon was preached on j
Sunday by Rev. W. E. Johnson, of s
this place. jIt
was thought that there must c
have been 3,000 people on the ti
grounds Sunday. Rev. >Y. D. Mc- j
Millau preached at the stand. e
On Friday morning a report on s
education was read by Rev. W. E. ^
Johnson, which precipitated a warm
discussion that lasted about four
hours. A uumber of the brethren (
took part in the debate, and desper .
ate efforts were made to strike out j
certain parts of the report, all of ^
which failed, and the report was j
finally adopted.
The next meeting of the Associa- j
tion will be in Bamberg a year
hence, and we express the hope that j
it may be as good as the one just J
closed. I

proud. Assistant Adjutant am

A Worthy Negro Boy,
Hagar Dowling, a well known
,nd extremely worthy negro woman
f this city, is justly proud of her
011, Paul Daniels. She has reason
o be. Paul has been across the
ceau, and he returned to his home
wo weeks ago after four years spent
11 hard study at the Congo Trailing
Institute, at Colwyn Bay, North
Vales, a polished, cultured man,
,nd it is no wonder that his old
nammy worships-him, and that the
vhite people who are his friends
,nd well-wishers desire for himon^
he best success that the world can
iring to him. His record is a good
bject lesson to every negro in Bam erg
county?and iu the whole
ountry for that matter?for it
hows Low it is possible, even if a
oy's skin is black, to attain a poition
in life that will command
miversal respect.
Paul Daniels was bom right here
n Bamberg, and his mother?left a
ridow when Paul was a little chap
-was poor. She loved her boy and
"? x * ^1 1J

ducation. With this end in view
he worked early and late, saved
very penny, and, denying herself of
veu the ordinary comforts of life,
onsecrated her whole existence to
he task of giving Paul an education,
hat he might fit himself for a poition
in life much above anything
he had ever dreamed of for herself.
5aul now appreciates these early
acrifices for his benefit, evidenced
>y the fact that he is doing all he
:an now to better his mother's conlition
and improve her surroundngs,
so that in her old age she may
njoy the comforts which she unelfishly
did without to help him
dong.
Six or seven years ago Paul was
enrolled as a pupil at the Jenkins
Jrphanage, in Charleston, and when
reukins's Infant Band went abroad,
Paul was one of the company, and
vas left at Colwyn Bay to complete
lis education.
During the past summer Jenkns's
"Sensational Concert Company,"
composed of orphanage pulils,
has been touring the country.
Dn July 7 the manager received a
:elegiam from Paul Daniels, anlouncing
his arrival in this coun;ry
and declaring his intention of
joining the company. That night
;he troupe was at Trenton, 5J.. J.
xhe Charleston Jfessenger-, of July
L5, had this to say about what happened
there that night:
' At 9:15, while the concert was in pro.
*ress, the Orphanage Man was surprised
1 3 i. ^ laotrfl fVlO
JSVOllU worub lu acc c vc* y uvj iv_o. > v.
stage. The audience, also, became exited,
but soon the mystery was solved
dv Aaron Porter, who exclaimed that
Paul Daniels had come. Such a shaking
>f hands and welcome greetings were exchanged
that the writer cannot describe.
Paul has made good use of his
Lime during his four years' stay at
the Congo Trainiug Institute, and
he brings with him more than a
hundred letters testifying to the
high esteem in which he is held on
the other side of the ocean. His
English friends loaded him with
valuable presents when he set sail
for America, the bare enumeration
of which would fill a quarter of a
column of this paper.
Paul remained with the orphanage
concert company this summei
until its tour was ended. He cams
to Bamberg about two weeks ago
and our readers can imagine tin
welcome that awaited lpm from his
proud old m^mmy. Since his so
journ among us Paul has made nc
nnrn Hi* of himself. He is not thai
sort of a negro. Education anc
travel have failed to spoil him. H<
is humble in his demeanor, correc1
and modest in his deportment, ant
is devoting his spare time to mak
ing things more comfortable aii(
homelike about his mother's house.
Hereafter he will be connects
with tlie Jenkins Orphanage, an*
there is not a man or woman, know
ing him as his friends do, who wil
not wish for him the greatest possi
ble success achievable. He has th
best wishes of The Herald, th
I editor of which is glad of this oj
jportunity of writing words of prais
[of one so worthily deserving them.

Bamberg county 224,621, valued at Rj
$776,903; value of all buildings,
$110,310; value of real estate in

During the winter of 1897 Mr.
James Reed, one of the leading citizens
and merchants of Clay, Clay
Co., W. Va., struck his leg against
a cake of ice in such a manner as to
bruise it severely. It became very
much swollen and pained him so
badly that he could not walk without
the aid of crutches. He was
treated by physicians, also used
several kinds of liniment and two
and a half gallons of whiskey in
bathing it, but nothing gave any re- y
lief until he began using Chamber- r
Iain's Pain Balm. This brought almost
complete cure in a week's time
and he believes that had he not used
this remedy his leg would have had
to be amputated. Pain Balm isunequaledfor
sprains, bruises and rheu- U
matism. For sale by all druggists
and medicine dealers. M
Olar Briefs.
On the night of the ISth instant, bj
a large crowd assembled at our HI
schoolhouse, the occasion being the
meeting of the Olar Debating Society,
with President W. T. Cave in
the chair, and Secretary N. B. Pat- _
terson at his desk. The query, "Re- T|
solved, that woman has more influence
over man thau money," was
debated. The following gentlemen
spoke on the affirmative side: N. A.
Patterson, Richard Morris, and Ernest
Andrews. Those on the nega- fC)
tive side were Geo. M, Barker and
Wm. T. Cave. The judges were J. |sl
E. Cook, M. C. Chitty, and J. E.
Bennett, who decided that the nega- cc
tive had the best of the argument. S.
The decision does not satisfy us, afi
however. We Olarites still contend ^
that woman is man's highest and nc
noblest blessing. "Woman, with all
thy faults, we love thee still!" With Se
our friend Bill Arp we may well exclaim:
"WoDian, she am a good
egg!" Next Wednesday night the 18
society will discuss the query, "Resolved,
that the United States is
justified in waging war in the Philippines."
A married woman was insulted in
a grievous manner last week, near
this place, by a negro. Although P(
no actual violence was attempted, ^
our indignant citizens spoke mena
cingly of Judge Lynch. Justice
McMillan sent the miscreant to
Bamberg jail. A number of our _
leading citizens happen to know him, C
and they assure me that the fellow v"
is demented, uud will ultimately be
sent to the asylum.
Rev. Mr. Chisholm, of Varnville,
preaches 011 the first Saturday and
, Sunday of each month at Olar Bap
tist Church. We have a Baptist
1 Sunday-school, also, that is well attended,
and expect soon to have a
; bible class. Mr.
Pat Starr had the misfortune J
to mash off the end of his finger un,
der his truck. He is thriving, and
. the finger is rapidly recovering from
the hurt.
Friend Joiner's gin continues to
do a lively business. He is often _
forced to run all right with extra M
. hands. The cotton is nearly all
J picked. Ml
Med. A. Hoover, of Bamberg, has H
been secured by B. A. Joiner, at his
wagon shop, to paint wagons and
buggies. He does his work in
an excellent manner, giving entire
! satisfaction to all. B. A. Joiner is
4 fortunate in securing his valuable
services. Mr. Joiner is doing a good
business. His collections are excel'
lent. He will not lose a dollar on ,n
3 bis time accounts,
Olar can now boast of a first-class L.
[. barber shop Mr. Ernest Andrews,
j its proprietor, does his work in a
a highly artistic manner. He is a I
? handsome young man. He is on
j the ladies' side. I think they are
011 his. That means multiun in
