Sunday-school Picnic.
The annual Sunday-school picnic was
lield at St. Johu's Baptist church, in the
lower part of the couuty, last Saturday.
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.

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,

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.

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.

Marriage in Allendale.
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.

[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.

Hartzog Happenings.
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.
