Gunnels, the former town marshal of Govan, who was convict e<i of manslaughter and sent to the penitentiary for live years, refusing to grant the pardon asked for. Mr. Townsend, who was solicitor at the trial in July, 1900, could not endorse the petition, stating that the crime was brutal, cruel and inexcusable, and the sentence was light. Judge Gary, for very much the same reasons, could not see his way clear to endorse the petitions. The governor, in view of these facts, could not grant the prayer of the petitioners.?The State. Fires. Last Thursday afternoon the house owned by H. S. Dowling, Esq., and situated on the street in the rear of his residence, was burned dowu. It was occupied by Mrs. Nimmons, and most of her furniture was saved. The fire originated from the kitchen stove flue. The house contained five rooms and was insured for $?00. Friday night about nine o'clock smoke was seen issuing from the store of C. R. Brabham. The front door was forced and the fire was found to be in a drawer under the shelves. The flames were soon extinguished, and not much damage was done. The fire was unquestionably started by rats, and it is extremely fortunate that it was discovered in time. News From Olar.

As has been announced, a revival meeting will : begin at the Baptist church on the fourth i Sunday, August 25, and it is earnestly hoped tlsat it will be a revival of religion in truth. There are some good, truepeo- : pie here who would be glad to see the 1 work of Christ revived and strengthened iu the beautiful little town. These noble < souls are willing to do what they can for 1 I a good meeting for they want to get nearer i | to the Saviour themselves and are anxious 1 | to see souls saved. Who will come up to ] j the help of the Lord? I am plain, I must ! be plain. Bamberg is very, very much in < need of a revival of religion in the hearts 1 I of the saved that they may go to work in < fr,r tiit, Mntitor 111tit others mavbe 1 saved. i I am anxious to do all the good I can i while I am in the tow n, as a servant, as i an agent, yea, as a slave for Christ Jesus. J My aim is to do what Jesus sent me to do, i viz: to preach the truth, to warn the peo- i pie, to tell them of the love of God and i of the willingness of Christ to save. f I am not narrow-minded as some people | in that they say there are no good people > outside the Baptist church, Methodist, or s Presbyterian, etc. There are noble souls 1 in other churclus who are doing a good f work for Christ, but I do want to tell the 1 people \fhat Jesus says. Now, 1 want a Christian people to be made stronger, to get a firmer hold on Christianity, and ( again, 1 want lost souls saved. I ask kind- f ly, although it ought not so to be, for it :i should be done without the asking, that c business men close their places of business for one hour each day during the t meeting and attend preaching, together s with their clerks. Hear me: whoever lets 1 anything come between him and God, fi keeping him from doing his duty, sins, i Is there a man in your employment unsaved? What are you doing that he may t be saved? Do you do anything? If not, f you had better see after your own salva- e tion, no matter how many churches you 1 belong to. Jesus tells us to go into all e the world and preach the gospel. There f is but one w ay to God, that is through a Jesus. "I am the way." John, 14:6. t "Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that s entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but cliinbeth up some other way, the t same is a thief and a robber." Jno., 10:1. J The most important thing in life is not ( makiug money, but saving souls. Men c ought to make all the money they can in c ttie right way and use it tor tne giory ox God. Do you people of Bamberg kuow n what it is to be a Christian? Men are t known by their fruit. Do you know what u the true religion is? Do you know what n was and is implied in the act of accepting b Christ? You may deceive men but you t cannot deceive God. "Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." Gal., f 6:7. H. M. Fa li. aw. p Bamberg, S. C., August 17,1901. c P. S. Subject for Sunday morning, Au- c gust 25th: "Final preservation of the r saints." J Mr. Bruee Replies. s Editor Tiif. Bamberg Herald:?In your last week's issue your Denmark correspondent, in speaking of couuty affairs, says: "If our hustling Supervisor issued checks, which he knew would overdraw funds to his credit, he too must walk up e and take his little pill." It will be no- v tieed that this is not a charge, but an in- ^ siuuation, and I am astonished that any & one should thus attempt to injure me k without knowing the facts. At the settle- V ment made November 24,t900, the county n had been overpaid $2,848.20. I went in- 11 to office January first, and at the settle- a ment made July 23, 1901, these figures a had been reduced to $1,360.87, making a h reduction of $1,487.39 in a little over six months. I think the alxovc is sufficient } answer to the insinuation, and the tax- i< payers can now see how the matter q stands. E. C. BRUCE, f County Super visor. * Girls Pummel Insulters. e Cumberland, Md., August 15.?Judge c Wolford's court was the scene of a trial this afternoon growing out of a sensational tight in which two sisters figured. ^ They were Edna and Laura McAvee, aged c 18 and 16 respectively. The girls were walking along the street in the southern j nart of the citv. followed bv a crowd of young men, two of whom," Floyd Kline 3 and Raymond Souders, made alleged insuiting remarks about Miss Edna. The t girls overheard them and they resented a them in a way that the young men will t] long remember. Turning quickly about, j Laura rushed upon Kline and planting her list under his nose demanded that he j retract the statement he had made about f, her sister. He refused to do so and she p ^uck him a blow square in the face that s sent him staggering and which she fol- a lowed up repeatedly, pummelling him in ? the face. Meantime Edna had tackled r; Souders, but got the worst of the bout, as si he struck her a blow that felled her. g Quickly regaining her feet, she made an- c other rush and with such success that w both young men may be said to have been tj completely knocked out, for they gla/il^^ consented to go wheirthe girl? WkHliem a to return to their companions, who heard u their remarks, and in the presence of the girls admitted that what they had said 1 was untrue. The young women then gathered up 0 their belongings and walked ou as if a nothing had happened. A constable, a learning of the affair, had the two young u men arrested. Souders was found guilty a and lined, but the trial judge concluded, j, that Kline had received sufficient punish- ? meut at the hands of the girls, and dis- ^ missed his case. ? The young men, while admitting that their remarks were capable of the con- t( struction put on them by the girls, denied ^ that they were intended in an uucompli- j mentary seuse. In court to-day one of the ^ girls' hands was very much swollen by a coming in contact with one of the young c men's head. The latter said that his assailant landed her blows too fast for him to put up any defence. j. Stops the Cough and Works off the Cold. ^ Laxative Rromo-Quinine Tablets cure jj a cold in one day.

"Why, yes," replied the delinquent, s "I suppose I will pay it some day or e other. But look here yourself, young man, I think I can show you a thing or s two. How many bills have you in that t bundle?" r "About forty, I guess." i "How long does it take you to visit j these people?" \ "Generally I get over my route in a i day." ? "Suppose every one of themshould pay t up " i "That would be fine!" "(). it would, would it? What would y you do for a living if everybody paid , promptly V" The collector turned the thought over ! in his mind for a moment or two, and looked blank. "Gracious," he said, "I'd be out of a job." , "That's exactly my point. Don't, there- . fore, be so infernally anxious to collect every cent due your people at one time. A few collections a day are enough. As j for my account, come around sonic day next week, and I may help you out of ' business by paying it. Good day."
