I learn from the Bamberg papers that Prof. Willis has resigned the position of head master of the Carlisle Fitting School, and intends to enter the Vanderbilt next session to enlarge his facilities and to get1 better equipped in mental machinery. The board of control of the Fitting School passed complimentary resolutions m n- j gard to the past work and efficiency of j Bro. Willis. By the way, ye trustees of j said school, call yourselves something ; else?say board of visitors or something like that. There is another board of control that handles another institution iu the State.?Circuit Rider. Clemson College. We have received from President Henry S. Hartzog an invitation to attend the fifth annual commencement of Clemson College, to be held June 21st to 23rd.

There was a large attendance of the good people of that community, and the day was very pleasently spent. Exercises a cre held in the church at twelve o'clock. Superintendent Carter first made an adIress, and he was followed by Rev. E. W. Peeples, pastor of the church. Senator 5. G. May Held was then introduced, and made a fine speech, along the line of properly t raining the young. The addresses were much enjoyed l?y the large crowd present. The church was crowded, and many persons were forced to stay on the nit side. After the exercises in the church were concluded, the good ladies spread a bountiful dinner. Free lemonade was dispensed in large quantities, and every one was well looked after. It i9 always a pleasure for us to visit that section of the county, and we never miss an opportunity ;o be with those good people. Shooting Affray. An unfortunate shooting affray occurred near Ehrhardt last Saturday evening about S.30 o'clock, in which Mr. Geo. I. fliers shot and seriously wounded Mr. A. C. Carter. The parties live near each ether. their lands adjoining, and thedifti iulty appears to have occurred in referjnce to a ditch. From the best informa;iou we can get, it seems that Carter had ;ut a ditch which fiad flooded Hiers's land. Hiers then built a dam to keep off ;he water, and Carter had gone to cut the lam when the shooting took place, fliers fired five times. One bullet entered Darter's left breast, and this is the most >erious wound. Carter married Iliers's istcr, and their connection makes the iffair all the more deplorable. Although Darter is seriously wounded, it is thought ie will recover. Contributed Locals. Mr. Jacob A. Hunter, who has )>een pursuing a post graduate course at Funnau University, is now at Bamberg in the inerest of* the Baptist Courier. He has >een elected president of the John Gibson Institute, located at Bowman, Georgia. This promises to be the leading college hi Sorth-east Georgia. Mr. Hunter has accepted, and will begin his work on the irst of September. Misses Bulah and Elbe Felder, of Harleville, S. C., who have been spending ;ime with the family of Sheriff J. B.

They were accompanied by a small company of friends who witnessed the ceremony. After a short "benediction" bad been pronounced by the Sheriff, the young hearts were made light and gay, and they both went their way rejoicing. A Delightful Reception. Although, at five o'clock last Friday afternoon, the dark gray clouds hung lowering and threatening, the home of Mrs. G. Frank Bamberg was beautiful and bright, for it was the occasion of a reception, in honor of licr fair visitor, Miss Arnold. Only those who were so fortunate as to be present, can fully appreciate how pleasing a picture was preseuted to the eye upon leaving dark clouds and muddy streets, and entering the cosy parlor, where bright lights shone o'er beautiful palms and cut llowers. The feature of the evening's entertainment was "A Story in Song," which afforded great amusement to the guests. The first prize was won by Mrs. Ilaveloek Eaves, the "consolation" by Miss Addis Hays, both prizes being exquisite hand-made handkerchiefs. After the awarding of the prizes, the charming hostess served dainty and delightful refreshments, and all present spent a most pleasant afternoon. The guests were as follows: Misses. Rertu Johnson, Addis Hays, Allie and Mamie Gee Jennings, Mabel Brabham, Von Etta Eaves, Pearle Counts, Florrie Black, Miss Sample, and Mrs. J L. Eddlcinan, Mrs. \V. Paul Riley, Mrs. Havelock Eaves, Mr. W. I). Rhoad, Mr. L. C.Price, Mrs. (E Move Dickinson, Mrs. J. H. Cope, Mrs. A. W. Knight, Mrs. J. A. Murdaugh, Mrs. Minter, Mrs. H. S. Dowling, Mrs. C. K Cobb, Mrs. R. L. Risher. Denmark Doings. Denmark, June IS.?A beautiful church wedding was celebrated at the Methodist church last Wednesday evening at caudle light. The contracting parties were Mr. William Osteen, Jr., proprietor of the Denmark Bottling Works, and Miss Eola Montez, the charming, beautiful daughter of Mr. H. C. Rice. The popularity of the new couple is universal. Therefore, it is appropriate to say that the marriage was a popular occasion and was witnessed by a large gathering of relatives and friends. The chancel was tastefully decorated. A graduated bowery of beautiful potplants formed the back ground of the floral attraction. Dr. W. D. Rice, venerable in age and stately in form, stood just in front of this mass of sparkling plants and performed a sweet, abiding ceremony. The charges were deliberate and were responded to by the contracting parties with an equal degree of earnestness. The approach of the wedding party was heralded to the waiting audience bv the sudden outburst of instrumental music, possibly a prelude to the solemn march which followed. Miss Anna Elwell performed with grace and kept her part of the interesting program in the realm of ecstacy. The ushers were Messrs Walter Dunlap, Decania Dowling, William Riley, and Wade Faust. The maid of honor was Miss Estelle G. Rice, a sister of the bride, accompanied by best man, Mr. William Smith, of Orangeburg. The entrance was begun by the ushers, down right and left aisles. The waiting couple came down middle aisle and separated at the altar, making an opening for the bride and groom. The entrance of the bridal couple caused a slight commotion as all eyes weretumed upon them. They were the eyes of hundreds of true friends. The beautiful "Danish Belle," if not blushing, showed in her tender, sweet face the halo ot goou nature sue invariably carried in every walk of life and her admiring friends seem to have loved her the more for it. The groom was solemn, possibly overcome with the contentment that he had won so fair a lady, the greatest gift of a distinguished father, and the most popular young lady of a large circle. The solemn tread was soon over and the strong, deliberate voice of Dr. Rice was rapidly weaving out the everlasting binding contract. The ceremony over, the Initial party, accompanied by a hundred or more relatives and friends wended their way to the Rice Hotel, where a reception was held and a most delightful supper served, the compliments of Mr. and Mrs. Lang Rice. The happy couple boarded the evening train via Augusta for Asheville, N. C., where 1 thej' will spend several weeks. Mr. Osteen will make Denmark his permanent , home. The presents were numerous, use- ' fill and valuable. The rainy weather has almost demoralized the farmers of this section. Many ( of them are still hopeful. The season ( has been protracted so long until is is feared that tbe shortage in crops will be a serious factor in the fall, when obliga- I tions will have to be met. It is no dis- , grace to have grass these days, as present indications point to the fact that the hay crop may be the most valuable production ' of the year. Cotton may surprise the i farmers, but corn is poor and its season . is now on ; the favor of weather will increase the chances of a good crop. The trustees of the High School have completed the selection of teachers for ! the next term. Mr. Wiggins will be assisted by Miss Mary C. Leland, McClellanville; Miss William Southard, Union; Miss Mattie Leach, Greenville; Miss Carrie M. Reeves, Marion; and Miss Mary T. Nance,Laurens. The selection promises to be fortunate, as all of the assistants were very highly recommended. Possibly a music teacher will be elected later. The 1 trustees are thinking of adding this department. The field of usefulness of a good school is being covered by degrees , and iu a few more years this community will have the very best educational ad vantages. The present board of trustees : has served the community for six years. * ' - Q?,l normunpnt. me SCUOOI, lis ri-puwuuuouu establishment is a monument to their lal>or. The office of a trustee is often very trying. The destiny of this school has*been time and time again thrust iuto their hands. At these critical seasons, a j mistake would have ruined the future and even disturbed the success of the past. 1 No mistakes like these have occurred. ' The line of duty was hard at times, but i right sustained them and the wave of ; success that followed was ample endorsement. The A. C. L. R. R. Co. is erecting a new : depot. The "block system" tower will be placed at the crossing this time. Air.

Let each Union arrange for a Sundayschool mass meeting for Sunday mom ing, at 10:30. The committee suggests that the churches at which the meetings are to be held provide dinner on the ground and entertainment for the delegates for the night. Let all the delegates come prepared to remain for the Sunday serrice. J. I. Ayres, C. E. Bl kts, Committee. Mr. W. S. Whedon, Cashier of the First National Bank of Winterset, Iowa, in a recent letier gives some experience with a carpenter in his employ, that will be of value to other mechanics. He says : "I had a carpenter working for me who was obliged to stop work for several days on account of being troubled with diarrhoea. I mentioned to him that I had been similarly troubled and that Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Kemedy had cured me. He bought a bottle of it from the druggist here and informed me that oue dose cured hint, and he is again at his work. ' For sale by Bamberg PliarJ rnaey. ' ' Allendale Locals.

Allendale, June 13.?A beautiful wedding occurred in the Methodist church at this place last evening, when Miss Louise Wilson, one of Allendale's most charming and popular young ladies, became the bride of Mr. Eugene Hutto Weissinger, of Blackville. The church was artistically decorated with pot plants and cut flowers, and the bridal party passed through floral arches aud formed a graceful group before the garland-wreathed chancel. The bride and groom stood directly under a beautiful horseshoe of white flowers. Mendelssohn's "Wedding March" was exquisitely rendered as a duet for organ and cornet by Mrs. J. L. Oswald and Mr. John E. All, and the Rev. C. W. Creighton, pastor of the Methodist church here, conducted the impressive ceremony. The attendants were as follows: Miss Jennie Bostiek, with Mr. Herman Brown; Miss Ruth Connor, with Mr. Harry Maloney; Miss Florence Brabham, with Mr. Samuel Matthews; Miss Phebe Oswald, with Mr. George B. Kearse; Miss Ethel Folk, with Mr. Charles Maloncy; Miss Gertrude Mixson, with Mr. Govan Weissinger; Miss Sarah Elizabeth Fanner, with Mr. Charles Groves; Miss Addie Weissiuger, with Mr. L. Wilson, Jr., and Miss Ella F. Dunbar, maid of honor, with Mr. Faber Weissinger, whose role was that of "best man." The ushers were: Messrs B. F. Wilson, I. D. Ellis, J. E. Searson and Dr. W. H. Breeland. The marriage was witnessed by a large crowd of friends and acquaintances, including many from a distance. After the ceremony an elegant reception was tendered the party at the residence of the bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Le Roy Wilson. The color effect in the decoration of the supper room was pink and whjte, and the parlors were cool and sweet-looking in the garlands of white and green. The presents were numerous and handsome. Mr. and Mrs. Weissinger will make their home in Blackville. Miss Minnie Zciglor. Editor Tiif. Bambero Herald:? Perhaps in all organizations, whether secular or religious, there is apt to be one leading spirit who impresses his or her individuality upon the others, giving tone and direction to their thoughts and purposes. So to the good people of Bamberg it may be of interest to hear of the good work done by one of her former residents, Miss Minnie Zeiglcr, in a class of nine girls in the Sunday-school of St. John's church, Augusta, Ga., of which she is a member, j The life and interest of the class lias been much quickened and vitalized since the coming of this earnest christian worker, who by her consecrated devotion to the*cause of her Master lias given a fresh impulse to those about her. It has been the plan for sometime past for each girl in turn to teach the class on Sunday, the teacher taking her place in the class among the scholars, and many sweet and interesting truths were brought out in the course of the half hour of the lesson study. And Minnie Zeiglcr, always in her place, by her ready christian sympathy and words of help and cliecr was an inspiration alike to teachers and scholars. And the influence of her consecrated life was also felt in the Epworth League and other organizations of the church with which she was connected. When she left Augusta last week to take a position as typewriter in Sumter, S. C., for which she had fitted herself by her studies in Osborne's Business College, there was a feeling that her place would be hard to fill. In tokeu of appreciation by those with whom she had been thrown, a warm friend of hers, Mrs. W. II. Turner, gave a delightful musical entertainment, after which refreshments were served and the guests present wished Miss Minnie Zeigler God speed upon her new life of usefulness. Her Sunday School Teacher. Augusta, Ga., June 12, 1001. Alver Bronson Reynolds [Lines affectionately dedicated to endear children, Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Reynolds, on the death of little Alver.] Oh! Angel of death why did'st thou come? For this blight young life, that had just begun, He was papa's pride, and mama's joy, And grandma's precious little boy. We loved him so, his gentle smile, - - ? - - v ?t l 1 Would brignten me iiarKesi u.?y; And when thy wings came fluttering near, We kissed him and turned away. Dear little heart that is stilled forever, Never to throb with sorrow again. Safely at rest in that far bright heaven, Gone* from a world of sin and pain. Dear little lips, so cold in their stillness, Lips we have kissed so oft with love, Lips that the angels now are tuning. To join in the chorus of praises above. Two little hands folded softly together, Like twin lillies so spotless and pure. Dear little hands that only have dealt with All things sinless, stainless, and true. Yet, my children, don't let your hearts be weary, Or grieve for your baby absent,dead; Don't let your fondest hopes be buried Down in that dark and narrow bed. But look upward, press onward, faith the star That guides your feet up the mansions of love. And let hope whisper fondly when sad is your heart Of the blessed reunion that waits you above. And when adown the rolling river, You too float by the sunset lea, Softly you'll enter the evening shadow. Into the light where be waits for thee. Mama.

Haktzog, June 17.?It seems that you scribe from Ilartzog must be too bu>y t write the news nowadays, and I think li is, from the amount of rain we are ha\ ing and the general crop condition. Th cotton crop is at least thirty days !at with no prospects for more than half crop. In this locality for the last thin days, beginning on May the ISth, up t this date. June 17th. we have Juki oni about 10 good sunny days; in fact thi spring has broken all records. First, w had a cold, wet spring; just asourcotto was up we had a frost that caused us t have to plant over; then the hail cam along; and last, but not least, the ban washing rains fell almost every day; ii fact crops are drowned in places wher they were never known to be ruined be fore. We have stood the vicissitudes o the weather for a long time, but we can not stand it much longer and expect t< | make anything like a half crop, but tin moon changes to-morrow and then tin weather will change for better or worse we hope for the better and perhaps it i: not as bad as I think, and if not, all i: well that ends well.
