A good shoemaker can make a good living in Bamberg. The town is now without a good workman, and we need one. We hope some white man who knows his business and will attend to it, will come here and locate. The editor of this paper will glad y answer inquiries from those desiring to come. Fire Thursday Night. Last Thursday night a little after twelve o'clock fire was discovered in the Bamberg Iron Works, operated by F. M. Pooser & Son. However a crowd quickly gathered and the flames were extinguished before much damage was done. The fire originated ill a barrel containing waste paper, and had it not been discovered so soon, would have destroyed the building. Picnic at Lodge.

The county gets $504.16. Pardon Granted. We take the following from last Sun day's State, showing that Gov. McSwceney has pardoned W. II. Brabham, of Barnwell county: In the case of W. II. Brabham, Barnwell county, who was convicted of assault and battery with intent to kill and carry ing of concealed weapons and was scn> tenced to two years hard labor.

Sor licitor Davis in his endorsement makes < the following recommendation: "I can' not endorse the language of this petition; with one exception. It is true that there was a contlict in the testimony, the jury unhesitating!)' believed the prosecuting > witnesses, and 1 want to say that I do [ also, but in deference to the jury who 1 tried this case, and who recommend this , pardon I will not interpose any objection, I but will join and ask t hat if the executive J can sec its way clear the defendant he . pardoned." i Stops the Go ugh and Works off the Cold. a Laxative Bromo-Quinine Tablets cure e I a cold in one day.

An interesting contest is being fought in Bennettsville between the board of trustees of the graded school of that town and the county board of education. It seems that some patrons of the negro school were dissatisfied with their principal for some reason and attempted to have the board of trustees remove him. The trustees declined to do this, after a hearing of the case, and the negroes then carried the matter before the county board of education, which proceeuea to near me case. The board of trustees appeared by counsel and objected to the hearing by the county board, claiming that it was without jurisdiction in the premises, and I gave notice of appeal to the State board of education. The count)' board went ahead, however, with the hearing, also granting an injunction forbidding the trustees to open the school last Monday, J the matter not having been decided up to that time. The trustees went ahead, however, and opened the school, disregarding the injunction. The final outcome of the matter will be watched with interest, as it will decide the question of whether county boards of education have supervision over special school districts. Country Correspondence. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Hill visited her parents, Capt. and Mrs. J. C. McMillan, at Colston, Saturday and Sunday. The Hampton school is being taught by Miss Julia Bryan, of John's Island. We are sorry to say that little Wilson Harrison has been quite sick. Miss Eva Han berry, of Denmark, visited Miss G. E. Jordan last week. Mr. J. C. Sandifer, of Augusta, and his sister, Miss Alma, of Orangeburg College, spent Saturday, and Sunday at their father's, Mr. P. W. Sandifer. Miss Irene Rentz, of Oak Grove, is visiting in our midst. Miss Lucia Clayton aud mother, of Colston, were in the vicinity Sunday. Mr. Joe Fender and mother and Mr. Julius Fender and wife were guests of Mr. aud J. B. Rentz Monday. Everybody went to Bamberg Monday and Tuesday. Some to buy, some to sell, some to vote, some to see, some to be seen and others? "Well, I don't know; they are not so many." G. November 4, 1902. News from the Citadel. The Citadel, Charleston, Oct. 2.? Carrie Nation, the home defender, arrived in the city Saturday, and oue of the first victims of her insane folly was a cadet. The new commaudant had finished his weekly inspection of arms and barracks, and a group of cadets were quietly strolling aloug King street, discussing the rigid inspection and happy that they were not among those who were to pay the penalty of a "red rust" gun or a "unsanitary" basin. One of them was smoking a cigarette, and, when near the corner of King and Clifford streets, was accosted by a woman. She began "spieling him considerably" and before he knew what was "up," she had calmly struck thfe cigarette from his hand and began one of her regular "side walk" talks. The report of the affair, as appeared in Sunday's News and Courier was greatly exaggerated. Mrs. Nation did not slap the cadet's face, nor did the cadet attempt to fight her. Doubtless had she really slapped his face there would have been a "rough house," for the cadets will always support each other in any trouble ami see that no one is wronged by an outsider. Capt. McMaster arrived Tuesday and has entered upon his duties as commandant. Although he is a rigid disciplinarian, he is absolutely impartial and has won mauy friends among the student body already. He has shown that he thoroughly understands his business and will eonduct the institution on a plan more like West Point than ever before. Col. Coward addressed the corps on the subject of "hazing," and his remarks were enthusiastically received by the cadets. He read an article written by Dr. Carlisle on the subject, and doubtless the old boys will be less severe in the future. At the last regular meeti ng of the Calliopean Literary Society it was decided to - - 11.. request Capt. McMaster to auuress me society on the first Saturday night in December. Capt. McMaster and Ex-Cadet Jas. W. Riley were elected honorary members of the society, aud the recording secretary was directed to put their names on the roll, which contains the names of many of South Carolina's most famous sous. Monthly examinations were held last week and the boys seem much easier that they are over. Our thorough course and limited time make it almost impossible for the men to pass on semi- annual exams, and, for this reason, they are held monthly with one final exam, covering the year's work. Even then however, many do not succeed in making the required GGj per. cent and have to fall out. Every year the institution loses between twenty and thirty cadets on this account and others of less moment. Maj. Coleman, vice president of the Iuter-Collegiatc Athletic Association, attended the annual meeting of the association in Columbia last week in the interest of our ball team. He attempted to get the association to reconsider its decree, suspending our team from the association for this year. As yet it is not known | | what was the result. We have fine material in school for a team and desire to | play very much. Col. Coward and Capt. McMaster, who attended the Fair, returned Saturday morning. Cdt. Corporal Willingham and Cdt. Private Jones have just returned from off furlough. It is with great regret that the cadet body' received an order at dinner to-day, announcing that Cdt. Corporal Geo. H. Mason "is reduced to the rank of private and suspended from the institution." Cadet Mason is from Jacksonville, Fla., and entered as a "rat" last }'ear. He is very popular among the boys and all are " i J \f? sorry that lie has been reuuceu. mi. Mason "'broke barracks" while on guard and restricted aild was caught. The report is a very severe one, and, while all hate to see him leave, we know that for a much less cause sixty-eight had to leave in '*JS. C. '0oAllendale News. Ai.t.f.xpale, Oct. 31.?Mr. B. J. Hiers of this place was married to Miss Sophie Miller of Summerville on Wednesday, the 29th inst. Mr. Hiers and his bride reached here Wednesday afternoon and took posession of their home, "Fairview," which has recently been remodeled and refurnished. Contracts have been made for telephone polls for a local phone system in Allendale. There is also talk of establishing a line between tins point and Fairfax to connect with the long distance phone. Farmers in our vicinity are planting plenty of oats, several of them use the combination "planter and fertilizer distributor," which machine gives good satisfaction. The corn crop in our vicinity turned out well, cotton cont inues to come in and the merchants are not "kicking" about trade or collections. "My dear," said the young husband, "did you ever speak to the milkman about there being no cream on the milk?" 1 "Yes, 1 told him about it this morning and he has explained it satisfactorily, and I think it is quite a credit to him, too." "What did he say?" "He said he always fills the bottles so , full that there is no room on the top for the cream." Fairfax Dots. Fairfax, November 3.?There was quite a crowd visited the State Fair last week. Among some of them were Mrs. Carter, from Hampton; Misses Thomas, and Sudie Harrison and many others. Mrs^M. R. Graves, who has been on a visit here, left Sunday, to the regret of her many friends. Misses May and Ada Bronson have gone to Georgia for a several weeks' stay with friends and relatives. Mr. Sam Lightsey, who lives near Sycamore, disappeared from his home last Tuesday night. He has not been seen or heard of since. Mr. Lightsey's father has hunted the country over for twenty miles around. Mr. Sam Lightsey was about twenty-three years of age. Mr. Frank Moye is visiting friends at ! Bamberg this week. The many friends of Mrs. |Med Wilson are sorry to learn that she is quite ill. ! We hope she will soon recover. Sunday is Dr. W. J. Young's most busy day. There will be another festival here the 27th instant. The public is cordially invited to attend. To Cure a Cold in One Day Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.

McMillan and wife, of Blaokville, visited Mrs. John Martin on Friday. Miss A. Lou Guess, of Hendersouville, S. C., is boarding at Mr. S. D. Guess's and attending the graded school. By the way, we have a nice school building, an able faculty, a host of scholars, a fine library, etc., etc. If we keep on developing in the future as we have in the past, it will not be long before we have a young college. So mote it be. The people of our city and its suburbs enjoyed a treat last week. Prof. J. Williams Macy delivered a tine lecture to a large, intelligent, and appreciative audience. He was very humorous, and brought down the house. The managers of our lyceum are pleased at the outlook; financially and otherwise it looks like smooth sailing. Messrs. H. C. Rice, J. B. Guess, J. D. Baxter, W. L. Riley, S. I). M. Guess, D. B. Reed, C. C. Califf, and E. I). Raney went to the State Fair. Miss Roberta Reed, one of Denmark's fair daughters, visited Augusta last week. "Rally Day" was observed last night at the Methodist church. An excellent speech was made by the pastor, Rev. B. D. Lucas. Fine addresses were delivered by Misses Doris Goolsby, Inez Zorn, May R. Tindal, Oleena McNeeley, Jobnella Inabnett, Annie Lou Collins, anil Sidella Guess: also by William Hand and Henry M. Ray. Mrs. E. B. Guess, of our town, mourns, the death of her sister,MissHattieSmith, of Williston. She passed away last week. A few monthsago Miss Minnie Humphreys, of Waynesboro, Ga., visited relatives living here. Returning home she was taken sick with that dread disease, typhoid fever. After lingering a few weeks she died. "Old time is still a flying, and flowers that bloom so fair to-day, to-morrow will be dying." W. H. W. The Best Prescription for Malaria Chills and fever is a bottle of Grove's Tasteless Chill Tonic.

C., Nov. 3.?WoiTord College is to have a new science hall. Hon. John B. Cleveland, a worthy son of Wofford, has sent a letter to Dr. Carlisle stating that he will build a hall wherein the study of science may be carried on more fully than it has been heretofore at Wofford. What this means to the college nere, anil 10 cuuciuiuii iuiuu^uuui tui. State, is no little thing. The building will probably cost between fifteen and twenty thousand dollars. The standard in mathematics will doubtless be raised, thereby placing it above that of any other college in the State. "The significance j of Major Cleveland's generous gift," says j President II. N. Snyder, "caunot be overestimated. In the first place, by giving this hall for scientific instruction ami investigation, he has made it possible for his Alma Mater to meet, in an adequate way, a growing demand and greatly to enlarge the sphere of its usefulness. The truth of the matter is, he could have done nothing better to forward the growth of the college than the building of this hall." The plans have been decided upon and it will be but a short time before work will begin. President Snyder's great popularity is shown by the numerous invitations he receives each week to lectne before some student body or some association. He lectured last week in Greenville before the young ladies of the Greenville Female College, and this w eek at Columbia before the students of the Columbia Female College. Although early in the season, Wofiford is preparing for the base-ball season. Manager Wilson is working very hard in ?

The prospects are very bright thus far, and by the time the season opens Wofford will be ready to entertain and make it interesting for any team that chooses to battle against her for honors. Mr. McAdams, of Newbeny, was on the campus last week, making pictures of j the different classes. Mr. L. W. Foreman, of the Atlauta Constitution, visited Mr. A. M. Brabham for a few days last week. About twenty Wofford boys went to the Fair at Columbia. The result of the Carolina-Clemson game was a big surprise to all of them. An effort is being made to get these two teams to meet in Spartanburg some time soon and play a game on Wofford's grounds. On last Saturday night Mr. J. E. Stahlcn, of the Sophomore class, was elected monthly orator from the Calhoun Society. " W. Brabham. Luck in Thirteen. Bv sending 13 miles Wm.

An eminent authority says the harm done thu9 exceeds that from the excessive use of alcohol. Eat all the good food you want but don't overload the stomach. A weak stomach may refuse to digest what you eat. Then you need a good digestant like Kodol, which digests your food without the stomach's aid. This rest and the wholesome tonics Kodol contains soon restore health. Dietingunnecessary. Kodol quickly relieves the feeling of fulness and bloating from which some people suffer after meals. Absolutely cures indigestion. Kodol Nature's Tonlo. Prepared only by E. 0. DxWrTT&Oo.,OhlcafOk ThetL bottle co&talnaStttlmeathafiOc. ale*. Bamberg Pharmacy and A. C. Reynolds M. MARK!
