If the bright and hustling town of Bamberg
will pardon some advice from one
who wishes it great success and prosperity*
we would suggest that it put in a
water system and an electric light plant.
The cost of these things would be money
well spent, and would help to develop the
town as nothing else will.?Orangeburg

We commend the above to our citizens.
We have gone over this matter so often
and urged such a course at great length,
that there is no use in our saying anything
at this time.
gggpy,The
country newspaper editors are receiving
propositions to publish articles

our debts and work at these prices. "We
hope our brethren will decline the advertising

The Greenville News has been criticising
M. F. Ansel, a candidate for governor,
because he said in his speech at Bamberg,
as reported by the daily papers, that "we
are all against trusts and corporations."

>, this language, and the remark attributed
to him was evidently a typographical
error. We heard his speech, ,and what
he did say was: "We are all opposed to
trusts and COMBINATIONS," which
makes the sentence have an entirely different
meaning. This newspaper is not
r-o- supporting Mr. Ansel in his race for
governor, but having heard his speech,
we deem it nothing but simple justice to
?7.' him that this error should be corrected.
jfe Branchville Brevities.
Branch ville, July 1.?Two young
hoys caused much disturbance last week
on the streets, and it was found necessary
to exert extreme methods to keep peace
and harmony. Quietness now prevails,
but the street lamps are beintj smashed by
_ unknown parties. The "cop has suspicions,
yet no positive proof.
July 4th will be duly celebrated by a
delightful picnic at Canal Lake about two
miles from here. The public is invited,
and already multitudes of people antici'*
pate attending.
All the business houses now close up at
7 o'clock, in order to allow their respective
r clerks to recreate for the next day. One
' ' certain establishment has deliberately refused
to close up. Action ought to be
brought against these parties that will
compel them to obey.
Miss Ethel Pearlstine, who graduated
with first honors last Friday from the
Misses Gibbes' High School, of Charleston,

praise. Mrs. R. and Sol. Pearlstine attended
the graduating exercises from

CAMPAIGN MEETINGS.
Brief Reports of the Canvas*, in Some
Counties.
Marion, June 27.?The Senatorial cam>aign
opened up in the opera house here
oday. The crowd was attentive and in.elligent.
About 2o0 were present, and
jotne of Marion's fair daughters graced
;he occasion. Hon. C. A. \Voods, county
chairman, presided, and made very complimentary
remarks concerning the candidates.
John9tone got off a joke about the
claims made by each candidate to Marion's
vote. Col. Elliott made a good hit
by turning the joke to his own advantage
and showed up very well. The caudi1

received a bunch of beautiful flowers. The
candidates made good speeches.
Evans and Latimer had a lively tilt.
Evans read a letter written by Dr. Stokes
charging Latimer with distributing free
passes in the House and seeding his farm
with seed at the expense of the government
at Washington. Latimer said he
organized a party to go to Due West to
hear Bryan's speech and got free transportation
from the railroads. He took
Republican leaders from the House to
hear Bryan. He denied that he ever sent
Stokes an annual pass as stated in the
letter. The government furnished seed
for his farm for experimental purposes,
and he furnished manure and labor. The
seed from his farm are now beiug distributed

Ali.endale. June 27.?An impromptu
I~ r* tlio "9totn Mmnaicn nnrtv was
LL1CCIJ U? UX tuv Mtaiv w, j
held in the city hail here today. About
200 were present.
There was nothing unusual among the
candidates for State offices except that
Gary for Lieutenant Governor charged
Blease with being a member of the board
of trustees of the State negro college.
Stevenson being absent, Gunter did not
speak.
Dr. Timmermau for Governor stated
that Talbert had employed a secretary out
of his congressional district; that fteyward
was riding the Pythian pony, but
would not succed, and that Ansel's
"Brother Kraft" story would never materalize.
Talbert was greeted with applause. He
said he had passed the pension bills for
the. old soldiers and that he favored the
whites and negroes each educating themselves.
He eloquently pleaded for the
old soldiers.
Ansel advocated good roads and free
schools.
Tillman attacked Ansel for not answering
the question as to whom he supported
in the last primary for Governor. In
response to the same question, Hey ward
said he supported the dispensary candidate,
McSweenej-. Tillman offered his
record as a Spanish war veteran and as
Lieutenant Governor.
Heyward, amid applause, denied effectively
that he was riding the Pythian
pony, and made an appeal for good government.
He closed amid great applause.
Barnwell, June 28.?The county election
at Allendale prevented a large attendance,
aiyi only about 250 men and
women heard the candidates today.
Timmerman for governor opened by
jumping on Tillman for not being on
hand at the opening. Otherwise he made
his usual speech. Tillman urged the same
system to shut off negro teachers as is applied
to registration officers. He defends
as a Knight the attack on Pythianism
made by rnmmerman yesterday, he being
a Knight. He opposes the soldiers' home.
Heyward was greeted with applause.
He favored improved schools and good
roads. In response to a question whether
be was a reformer, he said he could have
been elected unanimously to the constitutional
convention and had been unanimously
endorsed by the county convention.
He will be the Governor of all,
regardless of factions.
Talbert was greeted with considerable

applause, ne spone civqucunj m wtua^
of the old soldiers. He wants each race
to educate itself. He favored high education.
He had a good number of friends
in the audience and closed amid applause.
Ansel favored good roads and told his
"Crawford" joke.
Blease and Gary wrangled as to the record
of each on the dispensary, each
claiming that the other had voted against
it, both "denying.
Gunter left his record as an assistant
attorney general to the fact of his appointment
by Bellinger. He closed amid considerable
applause. Stevenson replied
vigorously.
The sensation of the day was furnished
by Messrs. Wilborn and Caughman, for
railroad commissioner. Wilborn had
said a lot of fice were hounding him, and
Caughman took exceptions to the remark
and replied warmly. Both men
started toward each other* to fight, but
were kept apart.

The Same Old Story.
J. A. Kelly relates an experience similar
to that which has happened in almost
every neiehborhood iu the United States
and has been told and re-told by thousands
of others. He says: "Last summer
I had an attack of dysentery and purchased
a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, which I
used according to directions and with entirely
satisfactory results. The trouble was
controlled much quicker than former attacks
when I used other remedies.' Mr.

Mr. Ware, the commissioner of pensions,
received a letter from a man in
Illinois a few days ago which read:
"I am now getting a pension of $30 a
month. Recently the Lord has prospered
me, and I do not think I should get so
much money. I gave my services to the
country, and I think I should have some
pension, of course, but I think $30 a
month is too much. Is there auy way I
can have my. pension reduced or suspended
while I enjoy the prosperity that is
mine at present?"
This is only request for a reduction of
pension ever received by the bureau. It
was referred to the pension examiner in
the district which the man lived, who reported
as follows:
"I have the honor to inform you that
the person who applied for a reduction
in his pension is now in the insane asylum
at this place, and has been for some
time."

The Turk; and Life Insurance.
One man was complaining that he
had insured twenty years before In a b
mutual benefit company which prom- C
ised all sorts of things, and now the t
time was up lie received less than he t
would have done if he had invested his e
money elsewhere. A wise Turk who 1
was sitting close by said it reminded c
him of a camel belonging to a friend of i
his. It was a most intelligent brute, f
and the owner was convinced that if 1
he found a really good teacher it could
be taught to talk. Presently a Hodga r
appeared who said he was of the same r
opinion and would teach it, but it t
would take a long time, probably thirty f
years. The owner was delighted and ?
agreed to pay the Hodga a fixed sum t
per annum and a big bonus when the t
animal talked, the Hodga promising to c
pay a heavy fine if it did not A friend i
afterward went to the Hodga and said: t
"What on earth induced you to make t
that agreement?- You know you can 1
novor thp ramel to talk." "Oh." ?
said the Hodga, "I know that, but during
the thirty years either I shall
die or the owner will or the camel.
Anyhow, I am ail right, as I have my

Odd Wedding Customs.
In Switzerland the bride on her wedding
day will permit no one, not even
her parents, to kiss her upon the lips.
In many of the provinces the cook
pours hot water over the threshold after
the bridal couple have gone In order '
to keep it warm for another bride. A '
favorite wedding day in Scotland is
Dec. 31, so that the young couple can 1
leave their old life with the old year '
and begin their married life with the ]
new one, surely a pretty idea. The
Italians permit no wedding gifts that
are sharp or pointed, from which practice
emanates our superstition that the
gift of a knife severs friendship. One
tiia mnat hpnntiful of all marriaee
customs Is that of the bride immediately
after the ceremony flinging her
bouquet among her maiden friends.
She who catches it is supposed to be
the next bride. ,

Word Blindnea*. .
Some curious instances of the physical
defects of "word blindness" are given
in the Lancet The disease is fortunately
uncommon. In one case the (
sufferer, an Englisman, thirty-four
years of age, who knew Greek, Latin (
and French well, suddenly lost all
knowledge of English, though he could
read and understand Greek perfectly
and Latin and French in a rather
smaller degree. Another and almost
more curious case was that of a man
who lost the power of reading at sight
This patient was able to write accu- (
rately from dictation, but was completely
unable to read what he had
written. Word blindness is apparently
akin to color blindness, but is certainly
attended by much more inconvenient
consequences.

growing? I should think a whole

be too awfully pretty.' "

A Bit of John Bright'* Sarcasm.
A noble lord once said on the occasion
of Mr. Bright's illness that Providence
was punishing him for misuse
of talents by inflicting a disease of the
brain. The following was Mr. Bright's
sarcastic rejoinder when he resumed
his seat: "It may be so, but in any case
it will be some consolation to the
friends and ramny or tne nonie xora 10
know that the disease Is one which
even Providence could not inflict upon
him."
Spinach.
Spinach derives its name from the
Spanish monks, who first used it during
fast days. It belongs to the beet
family and is generally served as a
vegetable, although it makes a delicate
and appetizing salad. In the spring,
when mint is fresh and green, a few
leaves added to the spinach will improve
the flavor, whether it is served
as a vegetable or a salad.

The Doe and the Jackdavc.
In Savernake forest I once witnessed
l very pretty little scene. I noticed a
loe lying down by herself in a grassy
ioIIow, and as I passed her at a disance
of about fifty yards it struck me
is singular that she kept her head so
ow down that I could only see the top
>f it on a level with her back. Walkng
round to get a better sight, I saw
i jackdaw standing on the turf before
ler, very busily pecking at her face.
IVith my glass I was able to watch her
novements very closely. He pecked
ound her eyes, then her nostrils, her

Amazon Ant Gardens.
Dr. E. Ule contributes to Engler's
Jahrbuch (supplement 30) some interesting
observations on "ant gardens"
in the Amazon region, where they
abound on a large number of goody
plants. They are generally spherical in
form and about the size of a walnut.
They are formed by several species of
ant, which appear to collect the seeds
pf many different plants and to sow
them in these nests, covering up the
3eedlings with humus when they begin
to germinate. In the structure of these
"ant epiphytes" the foliage and the
roots display characters which espe
:ially adapt them for the situation In
which they grow and promote also the
protection of the ants themselves In
their nest Quite a number of the
epiphytes were found as denizens of
the ant gardens and nowhere else.
The Blggeit Not the Beat.
A New York dealer who has handled
shiploads of fruit said recently:
"It Is often amusing to see men, women
and children picking out, as they believe,
the choicest fruit at the market
stands. If there are a half a dozen
large oranges within sight they will
have them, even if it is necessary to
overturn all the rest in the box or barrel,
and this is true with most all other
varieties that are sold by the piece or
dozen. They invariably get the poorest
specimens of the .whole crop and yet
are not aware of it Very rarely you
Will find a person who is a good judge
who will at once size up the heaviest
oranges, lemons or bananas, regardless
of size, and they capture the choicest

Why Two Ear* Are Necenary.
Sound travels by waves radiating
from a central Doint of disturbance,
Just as waves radJate when a stone is
dropped into still water. So far as the
hearing of each individual is concerned
these waves move in a direct line from
the cause of the sound to his ear, the
impact being the greatest In the ear
nearest to the source. This being the
case, a person who has totally lost the
sense of hearing in one ear, although
he may imagine that the defect is ot
little consequence, cannot locate the direction
of a sound to save his life, even
when the center o:! disturbance is quite
near him.

dealt in Bibles and light literature.
