Orangeburg vs. Bamberg, Though it raiued most of the day there was a large and enthusiatic crowd to witness the game of ball played here between the local team and that of Orangeburg on Thursday last. A more exciting game has not been seen here for many moons. The visitors had much the best show, inasmuch as they were in much better practice than the home team, having, it is understood, won several games this season. Things began to look blue for the locals J when in the first inning the visitors pushed three men across the rubber, but i in the opening of the second the home team caught the spirit and also sent three men across the plate, thus tieing the score. Bamberg scored another in the third, the ! visitors failing in this. Neither side | scored in the fourth, while the Orangeburgers piled up three runs in the fifth, making the score stand six to four. After this the visitors failed to cross the coveted spot, but the home team chalked up three more runs in the sixth and still another in the ninth, thus winning for Bamberg one of the most hotly coutested games that has been played here in several seasons. - - r The features oi tne gaiue were: u? Bamberg, F. Dukes' two running catches and H. Bamberg's work at second; Brabham C. did his usual good work behind the bat. For Orangeburg, Jeffords's batting, Sorentrue's good steady pitching, and Glaze's pretty work at first bag. There was one most pleant feature that is well worth noting, that is the absence of kicking. The Orangeburg team is composed of gentlemanly young fellows, j and made a good impression here. The following is the line-up and batting order of the teams: BAMBERG. ORANGEBURG. Bamberg, 2nd b. Webster, 2nd b. Osteeu, 3rd b. Glaze, 1st b. Brabham, C., c. Fairy, c. Hoffman, s. s. Sally, 1. f.

"Breathes there a man with soul so dead, Who never to himself hath said, 'This is my own, my native land'." Well may the youth of our day and time, the youth who shall eventually hold in trust the well-being of our country, read the foregoing lines and reflect upon their meaning. How many times, )Toung man, have you thought seriously of the meaning with which these words are so pregnant ? - - - ' At 111 L. Learned men ten us mai mere win ue a great crisis in the near future; how shall we be prepared to receive this? With folded arms and drooping head, and shall we stand idly by and suffer our homes to be overrun by brutes, as they were in the seventies? "if this is not to be, then let us awake to-day and prepare ourselves for the inevitable! How many true Southern lads are there who can listen to the stories of privation, shame, brutal treatment and unbearable outrages that came with the negro rule directly after the civil war, without boiling blood and a desire to avenge these wrongs, especially when told by one whose actual experiences they were. Let me say right here that there is one way to be prepared for what must surely come, and that is organization and unity of purpose. The efficiency of a wellorganized and disciplined few has been demonstrated time after time in sections where there is more thought and attention given to such matters, especially ; throughout the Northern States. Go back if you will to all the strikes and labor uprisings in the coal districts of Pennsyl1 vania and see how rapidly they were put down bv the militia, simply because they 1 were organized and disciplined. | Sad it is indeed to see what little weight : the militia of our State carries in the minds of the majority of its citizens, and more deplorable still is the fact that mem[ bers of this body seem to ignore their ; oath to "faithfully serve the State of ! South Carolina and the United States against all their enemies." In conclusion, allow me to say that 1 whatever may be the present condition of ' affairs, let each and every one of us strive to remember that we have a charge to 1 keep and strive to make the militia of ' South Carolina really "the right arm of ; the law."

In the home and at school, the children have their times of ill health and suffering. We often note the pallid and bloodless cheeks, heavy eyes, nervous movements, and twitch-1 ings of limbs and muscles. They complain of headache, drowsiness, weariness, dyspepsia, and indigestion. All such symptoms and ail- j ments mean that the seeds of disease will have j a fast and firm hold, unless proper measures are taken to restore a perfect condition of health. Thousands of wise and prudent parents have , made their children happy, healthy, and vigor-1 ous by giving them nature's medicine, Paine's I Celery Compound. In many severe and com- j plicated cases, Paine's Celery Compound has restored health when the little ones were given up by physicians. If your dear ones are not as hearty, strong, and rugged as they should be, try the health giving virtues of Paine's Celery Compound. It makes and keeps the children well.
