Several from Bamberg attended the . carnival in Orangeburg last week. Many of our people are attending the Elks' carnival in Augusta this week. Jones Bros, have on hand some extra stylish driving horses. See them if you 5/ want to buy. The Masonic picnic at Lodge takes place next Saturday. A large crowd will no doubt attend. The agitation in regard to annexing - Blackville township to Bamberg eouuty seems to have died away completely. Misf.es Allie Jennings and Addys Hays, of Bamberg, were among the fair dancers at the carnival ball in Orangeburg last week. We have no definite information on the S; subject, but we suppose all ttie stores in town will be closed next Thursday, the 27th, as it is Thanksgiving Day Magistrate Lightsey sent Malcolm Holman and Nathan Salley, both negroes, to the chain gang Monday for thirty days each for stealing chickens from Mr. S.

Brown, of Sumter, in the Baptist Courier, nominates Dr. Lee Davis Lodge, now president of Limestone College, for the position of president of Fur-1 man University. I Rev. W. W. Lawton, missionary to China, conducted both services at the Baptist church last Sunday. His descrip|T tions of the life and customs in China ?j were very interesting. Tuesday Mr. W. H. Bamberg showed us some pea vines which were covered with blooms. He said they had made one crop and died down and were now sprouting out and blooming for another crop. Let all our citizens attend the good ? roads mass meeting in the town hall next Monday afternoon at four o'clock. Our Senator and Representatives will be present, and will no doubt address the j meeting. ? ? See the great bargains on Klauber's 5c. and 10c. counters.

D. Felder. Call at once and get your money. County Treasurer Folk has finished his rounds and now has his office in the court house open every day to receive State and countv taxes. Better pay up before the first of January and save having the penalty attached. ' - The protracted meeting at the Metho- j dist church still continues. Rev. Mr. j Hook, of Bamberg, assisted Rev. W. A. Betts in this meeting, and our people I were much pleased with him.?Fairfax correspondence Barnwell Sentinel. 300 pairs ladies' shoes just received atj Klauber's. Hon. G. Duncan Bellinger and C. Arthur Best, Esq., have been retained to assist in the prosecution of Messrs. Ben and Arthur McKirley for the killing of V R. B. Klein near Elko On the night of the 3d inst. The trial promises to be a sensational one.?Barnwell Sentinel. It is very doubtful if there will be any Sr extension of the time for paying taxes. The governor and comptroller general have declined to take action, and those who delay payment in expectation of an extension are likely to have to pay the penalty. Better pay up and be on the safe sicle. Well informed persons tell us that a lot of this talk about a top crop of cotton amounts to nothing. One man says that the top crop in this section will not amount to one per cent. If this be the case v throughout the cotton belt, those who are expecting great things from this source will be disappointed. See Klauber's line of Griffon clothing before buying elsewhere. A ? ?

Fortunately there are very few of these, but we want those to pay up. We cannot afford to send the paper on ' longtime. We have been lenient with some, but must now insist that they settle up. Papers will be discontinued in the next two weeks to all owing for over a year unless settlement is made during that time. Large lot of rugs just received at Klauber'a, $1.25 up. The post office at Kearse has been discontinued, and the people in that section are now served by the free rpral delivery ruote from Olar. " There are still a few of our subscribers who have not yet had their paper changed, and we would be glad to have them advise us whether to change to Olar or Ehrliardt. The papers bow go to Ehrhardt, and the subscribers get them there, but it is best to have the address changed. A queer damage suit was tried in Barnwell last week. It was the case of Mrs. Jennie Brown vs. The Carolina Midland Railway for $10,000 damages. The suit was based on the alleged fact of a defective stove being used in the railroad's depot which caused a fire to destroy the depot and also communicated itself to the canning factory and ginnery of plaintiff. The jury gave a verdict of $5,100. This . is certainly a novel case. If this is to set * a precedent, hereafter any one can claim damages for a tire which destrovs property if it can be proven that the fire resulted Jr from the negligence of the parties against whom suit is brought.

The second school month of the present session has closed and the teachers have gotten their grades well in hand. While they have been working under great disadvantages on account of the unexpected large enrollment, yet the work has been up to the required standard. Every year the teachers have looked forward to occupying a new building, and as the numbers increase they think surely the time can't be far off. As they read of the Hue buildings going up at other places they are filled with envy. At Yorkville with one third less enrollment a $18,000 house is nearing completion; it will have a large auditorium with electric lights. At Bennettsville with an enrollment equal to that here a $80,000 school house will soon be ready. They think of their own cramped and miserable quarters, and see the children playing in the dust}' public road (they have no other ground) and sigh for what might be. But this only fires them with a determination to do for the children that which they can do with all their power. The honor roll is as follows: Finth grade?Willie Cauthen. Seventh grade?Eula Rowell. Sixth grade?Henry Stokes, Annie Laurie Rice. Fifth grade?Bessie Armstrong (2), Harold Mouzon (2), Adrine Padgett (2), Alfred Ray (2), Lucile Lightsey, Elise Rentz, Edith Simmons. Fourth grade?Pinckncy Bellinger (2), Henry Felder (2), Carrie Saudifer. Thanksgiving Box for the Orphans. The ladies' home mission society of the Methodist church held a meeting Tuesday afternoon, at which a number of contri- . butions were received for the Thanksgiving box the ladies are preparing for the orphans in the Epworth Orphanage at Columbia. They would like other con- . tributions so that the day of thanksgiving may really be one of rejoicing to the motherless and fatherless little ones who are under the care of the church. Will you not help, dear reader? There is no i charity more beautiful than that of contributing to those little ones without home or parents, and tlicy need your gifts. All contributions, no matter how small, will be gratefully received, and 1 gifts should be sent to the Methodist par- 1 sonage here. t ? iiyvciiui Aiiiaviiuu, , The next attraction of the Bamberg Lyceum will be the Ladies Ariel Quartette, a musical organization composed entirely of ladies. This is one of the star attractions of the course, and will no doubt draw a crowded house. The Quartette will appear here Saturday eveninsr, November 29th, and the Lyceum will make the price of admission low, as the object is to furnish entertainment and recreation for our people and not to make money. We feel safe in saying that the Ariel Quartette will please our people. A Recital Friday Eveuing. A recital in elocution and music will be given in the Carlisle Fitting School chapel on next Friday evening, November 21st, at S o'clock, under the auspices of the Sheridan Literary Society. The young ladies of this society have fortunately secured the co-operation and services of Mrs. T I). Willingham, the widely-known elocutionist. She has in the past been connected with the Lyceum bureaus, traveling among many cities of the South and rendering most effective work in elocution. Wherever she has appeared most complimentary remarks have followed and in the program the audience of Friday evening will have good cause to be pleased. Besides her own elocution efforts there will be music rendered, both vocal and instrumental, by musicians from Bamberg. Altogether a most enjoyable evening should be anticipated. After the program a reception for the young people will be given. The admission fee will be twenty-five cents for reserved seats, twenty cents the regular admission fee, and fifteen cents for children under 15 years of age. Little Girl Wins Musical Prize. A little girl, formerly of Ruffin, Colleton county, won the gold medal in a musical contest at the Florida State Fair, held in Lake City, last week: "The gold medal offered by Mr. Holloway of the Ludden-Smith-Campbell Music Company of Jacksonville, for the best piano playing by a child under twelve years of age, was awarded to-day to little Miss Mary Elizabeth Edwards of Lawtey. She is a pupil of Mrs. C. P. Gougar of Lawtey, who came to the fair to be with her bright little pupil during the contest. The fine playing of little Miss Edwards reflects great credit upon her teacher, and Mi*s. Gongar is naturally as proud as the medal-winner."?The Florida Times Union and Citizen. Jndge Izlar to Preside. Gov. McSwceney has appointed Judge James F. Izlar to preside at the Colleton term of court in place of Judge Gage, who is still suffering from a broken arm. Judge Izlar will also preside at the Court in Kershaw county. Governor McSweeney again calls attention to the fact that his fund for the payment of expenses of holding these courts has been exhausted and the officers of them will have to wait until after January to get their money, though almost any bank would advance the money. Commfite& Meeting. The ladies composing the Bamberg ladies' auxiliary committee of the Bamberg county monumental association are requested to meet next Monda}* afternoon at four o'clock at the residence of Mrs. (4.

You will hear good speeches and lend inspiration to the cause by your presence. We trust the merchants will close their stores during the meeting, so that they and their clerks may attend. Special Session City Council. At a special meeting of the city council held Tuesday afternoon, called for the purpose of discussing the good roads question, after full discussion of the matter, the following resolution was offered and adopted: Resolved: That it is the sense of this meeting that city council, through the columns of the two local papers, call a mass meeting of the citizens of the town for next Monday afternoon at four o'clock, the 24th instant, for the purpose of discussing and formulating sorifb plan to improve the roads leading into our town, and that our State Senator, Mr. Mayfield, and our two Representatives, Dr. Black and Mr. Dowling, be requested to address the meeting on the subject of good roads. The meeting will be held in the town hall, and there should be a large attendance of our citizens. Maj. Hays, our mayor, and all the aldermen are deeply interested in the subject of good roads, and the taxpayers should stand solidly to them in their work. Across the Savannah. Millen, Ga., Nov. 17?Thanksgiving services will be observed in our city on on the 27th. The sudden disappearance of Mr. Overby from Cushionville (a railroad station near Millen) which was discussed at length in the daily papers recently, still remains a mystery. Mr. Overby took out a $30,000 life policy a few days prior to his disappearance and many in our vicinity think he is absenting himself in order that his family might claim his insurance. Detectives are at work on the case, and some excitement meters in anticipation of the outcome. Miss Daisy Sawyer, of Fairfax, left our town this morning after spending several days here, the guest of Mrs. W. V. Lanier. Miss Sawyer is a lino character, and could grace a worthy man's home with the same ease, I Saw(y)er grace the printing office last spring! Denmark Doings. Denmark, November 17.?Mr. N. B. Dial, a prominent lawyer of Laurens, S. C., is visiting Capt. J. B. Guess. We are sorry to state Mrs. Dial does not improve, and will return with her husband to Laurens. Miss Nettie May Rice came home from College last week on sick furlough. She is rapidly improving. Among those who attended the carnival in Orangeburg we note: Mr. Peter R. Barton and daughters, Misses Ella and Sue; A. D. Pearson, Esq., and Miss May Pearson; Miss Essie Gue, and Roy Campbell and John Tyler. We did not get the Boston Stars, but we had a "star" of equal magnitude, viz: the Wakeficld-Currie Company. Miss Maud Metz, who is teaching at Lee's, visited her parents yesterday. The Presbvteriau church was dedicated Sunday. A large congregation listened with pleasure to an able and thoughtful sermon by Rev. Alexander Sprunt, D. D., of Charleston.

Govax, November 17.?A lunch box party was given at the new school house last Friday evening for the object of raising mone}'to help furnish the building. The party was begun by music, which was furnished by the Colston band. Next was a play, acted by Misses Gussie, Emma, and Daisye Kennedy, Mrs. Lucy Lancaster, Messrs. Dude Free and Jack Hutto. Each acted his or her part splendidly. After the play the beautiful boxes were auctioned off by Prof. Breeland. The box given by Miss Eula Jones, an attractive visitor of Mrs. C. F. Rizer, sold for five dollars and fifteen cents, which was the highest sale. The amount realized was twenty dollars and eighty cents. When the boxes were disposed of the hall was given up to the young folks. There was a large crowd present, among which were many visitors. We trust that everybody had a very pleasant time. Prof. Breeland and Miss Emma Kennedy went to Bamberg last Friday morning, and when the couple returned that afternoon our little village was surprised to learn that Prof, and Mrs. Breeland had arrived. The bride and groom claim that they did not decide to marry on that day until after leaving home Friday morning. The bride is the charming daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jas. A. Kennedy. The groom is a very refined gentleman from Walterboro, who has charge of the Govan high school. ^T? ? A t\or! o mrr liUV. tl 111'. u. nil )#a i'ttvuvvi c? twj interesting sermon at Salem Sunday.

Barnwell Court Proceedings. Barnwei.t., November 17.?On Saturday the Court of Common Pleas adjourned. In the case of Mrs. Mike Brown against the Carolina Midland Railway Company a verdict was rendered for $5,160 on Wednesday. The case was three days in being tried. Wednesday night Col. Mike Brown gave an entertainment to the jurors who sat on tho case and some others connected with the trial. In the case of Creech vs. the Southern Railway Company an oral demurrer was interposed to the complaint. The demurrer was overruled, but the ease was suspended in order that the Supreme Court might pass first on the ruling of the presiding Judge. On Saturday evening Duncan Bellinger, a son of the Attorney General, broke his leg above the ankle. He was playing foot ball. Judge Gage left here on Saturday evening. His arm was giving him sqme trouble and doubtless he will be compelled to get a substitute to hold the Walterboro court. plenty of Horses ar Mass Meeting. All citizens of the town of Bamberg are | earnestly requested to attend a mass meetin next Monday afternoon at four o'clock, the 24th instant, for the purpose of discussing the question of good roads.

News from the Citadel. The Citadel, Charleston, Nov. 16? The bojrs are looking forward with great pleasure to the Carnival, which is to be held during the first; week in December. The indications are that it will be very successful. The corps will appear in all the military parades and the boys will do their best to make the creditable show which was made duriug the Exposition. A cadet's life is made up largely of excitement, and he cannot thrive if there is not great abundance of it. Since the opening of school things have been very dull compared to the great times we had during the Exposition, and, for this reason, we all expect to make the most of the time given us during the Carnival. The Athletic Association held its regular monthly meeting Wednesday night and was well attended. It was decided to organize a base-ball team, in spite of the fact that we cannot play with the majority of the State teams. We expect to get games with Davidson, Bingham, V. P. I., V. M. I., and Charleston college. We have been greatly handicapped by the action of the State Association, and it has been decided not to attempt to enter it. Since we have belonged to it we have received no material benefit and have been harmed considerably. At the meeting a committee was appointed to confer with committees from the city Y. M. C. A. and Charleston College relative to competing for the handsome trophy cup now held by the former team (basket ball). We had a fine team last year, and, had we been able to have a coach, would probably have won the trophy. We have fine material in school, and expect to do our best towards "defeating the other team9. The tennis tournament has not been definitely decided upon, but it will most probably be held after Christmas. The Editors of the Annual held their regular weekly meeting Wednesday night and transacted much important business. Cadet Copeland was elected editor-inchief pro.tern, to serve until Cadet Roberts is able to resume work. It was decided to change the name of the annual to "The Sphynx," which all agree is more appro * - MMAflAnf tltln prime iliuh uiu pitdcuv uuu The Calliopean Society has every reason to be proud of the work which she is doing this ye ar. The exercises last Saturday were exceeding interesting. The quarterly orator delivered an oration entitled "What Next," which was well received. The debaters did unusually well, while the readers and declaimers rendered fine selections. An invitation was received from the Polytechnic Society to be present at an address to be delivered t>efore that society by Rev. Dr. Way next Saturday night. Capt. McMaster, our new commandant, has been requested to address the Calliopeans on the first Saturday in December. Maj. Thomas, our popular and efficient professor in mathematics, has received a sick furlough for two weeks, and is away under treatment. The corps regrets his illness and hopes he will soon be able to resume his duties. Maj. Thomas was for several years, on the United States Geological Survey. He superintended as chief-engineer the construction of the jetties in Charleston harbor, and held this position for several years. He resigned this in 189?, to accept the chair of mathematics here, and has held it ever since. The standard of our school?already the highest in the South in mathematics and on an equal with any other in the other studies taken up in our course?has again been raised by the addition of another year's work in Chemistry and Physics. The military department lias also been raised, and Capt. McMaster has complete charge. Several cadets, including the writer, attended an "At Home" Fridaj' evening given by Miss Helen Mclver, one of Charleston's brightest young ladies, and spent quite an enjoyable evening. Recruit Jones has obtained a ten day furlough arid is away having his eyes treated. Mr. Jones, son of Brig. Gen.. Jones, is quite a bright young man, and it is hoped that the treatment will be successful and he will soon be able to resu me his duties. C. '03. Ehrhardt Etchings. Ehrhardt, November 17.?Mr. L. A.
