There is much work ahead of the city
council just elected. During Mayor
Hays's administration much good work
r?f a nprniftnent kind was done on the
streets. Let the present city fathers continue
to improve the streets of our city.
*
* *
Major Hays, the retiring mayor, has left
a monument to himself in the shape of
several good streets and sidewalks, on
which permanent and much-needed work
was done during his term of office. Let
the new city fathers make as fine a record.
* *
We have no suggestions to offer our
new city council as to electric lights and
waterworks. We have discussed these
two improvements enough for the present
we think, but we do want to see permanent
work done on the streets and
sidewalks.

The decision of the United States treassury
department that Crum, the negro
collector of the port in Charleston, is not
entitled to any fees or expenses of his office
until confirmed by the Senate, fully
sustains the contention of the Charleston
people that the appointment was an illegal
one.

The bicycle scorcher is much in evidence
in Bamberg these days. The rapid
"b
pace at which many riders travel the sider'-'
walks is positively dangerous. A serious
accident is apt to occur unless council
takes steps to reduce the speed at which
bicycles shall be ridden on the streets
and sidewalks.

We hope the new city council will de^

Ehrhardt Etchings.
Ehrhardt, May 10.?A small crowd
from our little town eDjoyed a fish fry at
Howell's old mill last Wednesday. There
was quite an abundance of fish for dinner
and a very nice lot of trout were brought
home.
J. Pinckney Matheny, Esq., of our sister
town, Bamberg, spent a day and night in
;V Ehrhardt last week, the guest of A. C.
Reynolds.
By order of the town council, C. Ehrhardt,
intendant, has built on his lot next
to the old stand of the Ehrhardt Millinery
Co., a nice beef market of four separate
rooms or divisions. One of these rooms
will be rented to any one who wishes to
sell beef or any other marketable produce.
.? John Kearse, a negro man of notoriety,
t went into the room of Messrs. Edwin
, and John Frank Chassereau while they
were at supper Saturday night and helped
himself to several articles of some value.
He was caught right away after supper,
and put in the guard house with chains
about bis feet, which were locked to the
floor. It was thought that he wa9 secure.
Some friends put something through the
*r\ Kim on/1 thio mnminor it wQfi

found that be bad prized tbe chains up
from tbe floor, knocked off a board, and
made bis escape. He must have gotten
away with difficulty, as he had to walk
with the two large chains locked about
his ankles. The guard house is some distance
from any residence or place of business,
which is the reason that no one
- v heard the noise that he must have made
in effecting his escape.
Dr. Holland Carter, of Smoaks, was in
town last week, the guest ot Dr. J. H.
/ Roberts.
St. Julian Carwyle, of* the Geer Drug
Co., called on A. C. Reynolds one day
last week.
Prof. Frank Folk and family spent his
days of rest from Friday to Sunday afternoon
with his mother of Folks.
Mr. Henry Lightsey, of Crocketville,
was the guest of Miss Rubie Murdaugh
last Sunday.
F. M. Pooser, of Bamberg, stopped over
at J. A. Chassereau's one day last week
on his way from Walterboro to Bamberg.
Mr. Henry Ehrhardt has employed a
crew of carpenters from Ehrhardt to do
the wood work at the large saw mill that
he is putting up just below Lodge.
Mrs. A. C. Reynolds and Mrs. J. F.
Fender spent the first of last week in
Bamberg with Mrs. J. M. Jennings.
The annual Sunday-school picnic will

Killing in Barnwell.
Barnwell, May 11.?Willie Lutz was
shot and killed Sunday afternoon by Toy
Sanders, near the latter's home four mile's
from Baruwell. For some time previous
to the homicide the parties had been uufriendly,
and this, it seems, resulted in a
fight some days ago wherein defendant
was severely beaten b^ deceased, and
later resulting in the tragedy as above.
Deceased is a son of Mr. Jas. Lutz, a
planter living near towu, while defendant
is a son of Rev. F. J. Sanders, a well
known Baptist preacher. Coroner's jury
N rendered the usual verdict. Defendant is
in jail.
A Sore Ttiiug.
It is said that nothing is sure but death
and taxes, but that is uot altogether true.
Dr. King's new discovery forconsumption
is a sure cure for lung and throat troubles.
Thousands can testify to that. Mrs. C. B.
VanMetre, Shepherdtowu, W. Ya., says "I
had a severe case of bronchitis and for a
year tried everything I heard of, but got
no relief. Oue bottle of Dr. King's newdiscovery
then cured me absolutely." It's
infallible for croup, whooping cough, grip
pneumonia and consumption. Try it.'lt's

A squall caugh a party of tourists on a
lake in Scotland and threatened to capsize'
their boat. When it seemed that the crisis
had really come, the largest and strougest
man in the party, in a state of intense
fear, said, "Let us pray." "No, uo, my
man!" shouted the bluff old boatman. "Let
the little man pray. You take an oar!"
The record for the highest price ever
paid for one saw log in Alabama was
broken last week,when J. G. Grayson paid
to Andrews & Co., of Huntsville, $25.43,
<->ne which will net over 1000 feet of lumber.
The log was poplar.
BAMBERG'S OPPORTUNITY.
Even as in the lives of men, do golden
opportunities come in the lives of many
towns. In some men's lives the opportune
moment presents itself when manhood's
bloom is yet imperfected; the young man
with a young man's natural ambition
seizes his chance, makes the best of it, and
is consequently successful. So now it is
with Bamberg, a young town just in the
bloom of young manhood, this chance is
even now presenting itself, and we believe
from all appearances that Bamberg
will not let her chance for development in
all lines pass by unheeded.
With a new graded school building to
be built, and the sanitary conditions of
the town in a comparatively good condition,
will come new residents, and with
an increase of inhabitants will come an
increase of trade; thus will we grow and
expand. But without a system of waterworks
how can we hope that our new
residents will be willing to invest their
money in buildings which will grace our
?l..iniiifr trtU'll V Prtf 11A oriO 1C U'lllillff tit
I Li I IV iUg tv n u . x- v/? xx v vwv w
invest his money unless he has some guarantee
that it will be protected. So let our
new city council have as their tirst purpose
the establishment of a system of
waterworks.
Our council which is going out has done
a good and lastiug work in the matter of
establishing good roads in and about our
town; the}' have brought trade to our
town by this work. Now let it be the aim
of the incoming council to keep this up
and to make people stay here permanently
by making other material improvements.
We cannot invite people to invest unless
we have some protection to offer iu
return. Now is Bamberg's opportune
time. She will either grow or decay from
now ou, and it may be as the citizens* of
the town wish. \V hich will it be, growth
or decay? Contributed.

Young Fairey Acquitted.
At the May term of the circuit court in
Orangeburg last week Mr. F. W. Fairey
was acquitted on the charge of murder
for the killing of Mr. N. G. Heape at
Branchville on March 3, the Court directing
a verdict of not guilty on the testimony
offered by the State. Mr. Fairey was
a stepson of Mr. Heape and owned the
house occupied by Mr. Heape and his
family. Mr. Heape was an engineer on the
Southern Railroad and a man who was
well thought of and well behaved unless
under the influence of drink, which he
indulged in periodically.
The day before he was killed Mr. Heape
smashed up the furniture in his house and
threatened to burn it down, and Mrs. i
Heape, with her children, left home, tak-1
iog refuge in the house of her daughter,
who lived next door. The following morning
Mr Reape began shooting and cursing
and terrorizing the neighborhood. Mr.
Fairey had always been on very good terms
with his stepfather, and desiring to quiet
him, consulted his friends, and securing
his gun went to the yard to see what he
could accomplish. On the way to the house
Mr. Heape tired at the party with a shotgun.
Fairey finally got into the yard and
got possession of Heape's rifle.
Heape then came from the back lot
with his shotgun, and Mrs. Heape ran out
of her daughter's house and called to her
son that Heape was coming and would
kill him. This infuriated Heape, and
turning with an oath he levelled his gun
on his wife.
At this Fairey stepped from the side of
the house and called to Heape: "Hold
on." Turning then upon Fairey he said:
"Damn you, I will get you this time."
Fairey fired. Heape's gun snapped, and
he fell dead. Mr. Fairey, who is now a
law student in the office of Capt Kellev,
at Kingstree, is a bright young man, and
has alway borne a good reputation. He
was represented by Judge James F. Izlar,
Raysor & Summers, H. H. Brunson and
Capt J. A. Kelley.
Richard Sweat, colored, was charged
with the murder of Anna Evans, colored,
in Branchville, on the morning of January
19. The evidence was circumstantial and
strong, but not sufficient to convince the

woman lived with her children at the
house of Sweat, who was her protector
and adviser and manager of her property,
about $1,200 obtained from insurauce on
the life of her husband who died recently.
She was shot through a hole in the side
of the house whileshe was dressing. Sweat
claimed that he was in the room, and
immediatly ran out and snapped his gun
at two men who ran off in the woods. His
wife, who was in the next room, said she
saw him run out when the gun tired. Other
witnesses who were in the neighborhood
saw no men running after the shot, and
there were no tracks leading up to and
away from the house. A single-barrelled
gun, found concealed in the house, had
been recently fired. It was shown that
several of the State's witnesses "had it in
for" Sweat, and there was insufficient :
proof of motive. !

A Large Order.
The proprietor of a certain restaurant
had "leased" the reverse side of his bill of
fare to a certain carriage manufacturer,
who prints his advertisements theron.
The other day a customer in a great
hurry ran into the restaurant, sat at a
table and was handed a bill wrong side
up by the flurried waiter.
The customer put on his pince-nez,
curled his mustache with his left hand
and shouted in a voice of thunder:
"Bring me a fly, a landau, two victorias
and a dogcart! "Got any wheel-barro\v9V"
The waiter fled.
The Wastes of the Body.
Every seven days the blood, muscles and
bones of a man of average size loses two
pounds of woruout tissue. This waste cannot
be replenished and health and strength
kept up without perfect digestion. When
the stomach and digestive organs fa 1 to
perform their functions, the strength lets
down, health gives way, and disease sets
up. Kodol dyspepsia cure enables the
stomachanddigestiveorgaus to digestand
assimilate all of the wholesome food that
may be eaten into the kinds of blood that
rebuilds the tissues and protects the health
and strength of mind and body. Kodol
cures indigestion, dyspepsia and all stomach
troubles. It is an ideal spring tonic.

Doubtful About the Future.
The boy was all right, notwithstanding
his girly curls and a fond mother who
was deathly afraid he was going to bectfme
coarse and vulgar and in other
respects masculine.
Oue day a gentleman calling at the
house engaged hint in conversation.
"Well, my boy," he said after a time,
"what are you going to be when you
grow up?"
The boy studied the question a moment.
"Really," he replied at last, "I don't
know. I suppose I ought to be a man,
but from the way mamma is handling me
I'm almost afraid I'm going to be a
lady."

Dr. Patton was delivering a lecture
recently in his course ou ethics at the
Princeton Theological Seminary and
experienced much annoyance because
some of the students ate peanuts instead
of attending to him. Finally he administered
this rebuke: "Gentlemen, I have
delayed starting the most important part
of to-day's lecture hoping that the stock
of peanuts would be consumed aud a
restful quiet restored. As the quantity
seems ample to meet the demands and
the supply appears inexhaustible, I feel
constrained to request that your appetites
be restrained until the conclusion of
the lecture. I would be greatly pleased if
in the future anyone wishing to conduct
a 5 o'clock tea in the class room would
conflne the refreshments to sponge cake."
Too Great a Risk.
In almost every neighborhood someone
has died from an attack of colic or cholera
morbus, often before medicine could be
procured or a physician summoned. Are

kept at haud. The ri9k is too great for
anj'one to take. Chamberlain's colic, cholera
and diarrhoea remedy has saved the
lives of more people and relieved more
pain and suffering than any other medicine
in use. It can always be depended

Listened to Wrong Stars.
Some years ago that bright and witty
Judge, George C. Barnard, was on the
bench listening to a young flowery lawver
arguing a motion before him. The
youthful limb of the law wound up his
peroration by remarking: "Why, your
Honor, that precedent was established
when the stars first sang together."
"Well," said the Judge; "it will cost you
$10 for being at that concert. I deny
your motion."

Dear Sirs: I have now used four bottles

J jtrong and vigorous, so that it will throw

r lystem that contracts those diseases which
jo often prove fatal. Take heed, build
op your body, keep your blood rich and
ihe circulation normal, then you need have
10 fear of disease.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is prescribed
by doctors and used exclusively in all the
prominent hospitals. It has stood severe
tests for fifty years and always found
absolutely pure and free from fusel oil
and all dangerous ingredients.
CAUTION. ? When buying Daffy's
Pare Malt Whiskey be sure yen get
the genuine. Unscrupulous dealers,
mindful of the excellence of this
preparation, are seeking continually
to put upon the market for profit
only, and will try to sell you
rlieap imitations and so-called Malt
Whiskey substitutes, which, far
I from relieving the sick, are positively
harmful. Demand Duffy's
and be sure you get It. It Is the
only absolutely pure malt whiskey
which contains medicinal healthgiving
qualities. Look for the
trade-mark, "The Qld Chemist," on
our label.
