Wednesday in one of the snappiest games a
if the season. In the beginning both ?
earns seized the bit and rushed away *
or the wire, going neck and neck for *
our innings until Orangeburg scored two ?
uen in the fifth on errors of Bamberg's J1
hird baseman and left fielder.
This was also a session for the home c
earn, and by good heavy hitting they c
mnched five ruus on the score card. a
Bamberg, Osteen and Steadmau each sent s
he sphere out for three bags, while Hoff- a
nan took second oa his long hit to right v
ield. 1
The "City on the Edisto" failed to score a
my more, but at intervals varying in L
eiigth the locals chalked up four more c
uns, thus making the score niue to two. ?
Hoffman pitched a faultless game for
3amberg, yielding only two hits; one of s

With the Guards- 1
i
Nest Tuesday is the day set for inspec- j
ion, and it is sincerely hoped that the \
Bamberg Guards, officially known as Co. t
jr, 2nd 8. C. V. I., will make as fiue a t
show as auy company in the State (
Since the reorganization under the
Dick militia law, a lot of new material
aas been added to our ranus, out we nope
;hat the men will be in fine shape when
;he critical period comes. The boys are <
irilling every night aud show a decided j
mprovement. 5
Our new kahki uniforms have arrived ]
ind will be issued to the men as fast as j
they return their old uniforms to the ,
irmory. The uew Krag-Jorgensou rifles ]
that are to be issued will not arrive until ,
ifter inspection. We have been handi- ,
sapped with old model Springfield rifles, .
that weigh 8 or 9 pounds for a long time, >
thereby lessening the efficiency of the ,
ruilitia as a whole, but with the incoming ;
Kragsthe militia (or National Guard) will
be placed on a higher plane of usefulness ,
than at any time in its history.
Our officers are looking more to the
needs and wants of the men than ever before.
There are already being planned, J
beside the encampment at the Isle of
Palms this summer, numerous picnics,
dress parades, prize drill contests, and
other things too numerous to mention.
It has not been fully decided yet
whether there will be a banquet after inspection
or not. W. C. P.

This wedding came quite as a surprise
to the many friends of the parties here.
For some years Miss Jennings has been
one of the leaders of Bamberg's most
exclusive society set, aud has won for herself
friends in every walk of life. Naturally
beautiful, her tact, generosity and
vivid personality have endeared her to the
many who were fortunate in claiming her
friendship. The good wishes of her
legion of friends go with her to her new
home, and while her friends bid her goodbye
with sadness, knowing that her place
cannot be tilled, it is with the assurance
that her welcome will be warm, and her
visits to her old home always a source of
delight to those who know her.
Mr. O'Hern, while fortunate in winning
one of the fairest flowers in our
rosebud gardeu of beautiful girls, is himself
a young man of sterling worth, and ?
a most excelleut gentleman. He comes j
af sturdy stock, of a well known and old ^
family of St. Augustine, Fla. He is travel- ^
ing agent for Christian, Keeper & "Co., g
3t. Louis, Mo., and while naturally his ^
visits here have been short, they have
t>een frequent, and he has made many
friends. g
The bride and groom left on the 10.30 t
;rain for Jacksonville, Fla., which will
3e their home for some time to come. ?
The good wishes of the town, the
jommunity and of the many friends of g
;he bride throughout the State go wun j(
,hem, wishing them a life of peace, ^
lappiness aud prosperity, and all the ^
jood things which should come to so
popular a young couple, beginning life ^
with a future so promising.?W. P. M. in ?

Bold Attempt at Robbery. a
Some excitement was created in town 0
ast Monday about twelve o'clock when 8
he news came here that a negro had
obbed the house of Mr. Nathan Padgett, *
ind had also iusulted his wife, and that j?
)lood hounds were wanted to trail him.
dr. Padgett lives out on the Ehrhardt 81
dace, about four miles from town on the jj
Buford's Bridge road, and several from "
lere left for the scene of the trouble at 0
nee, among them being Supervisor E. C. n
Bruce, who carried one of Sheriff Hunter's
lood hounds.
The facts we were able to get from him
u regard to the matter are that Mr. Pad;ett
was at work out in front of the house,
.bout two hundred yards away, and that H
Irs. Padgett had been out in the garden ^
n rear of the house, gathering vegetables "
or dinner. She was out some time and S
n her return went into the kitchen aud Cl
leard some noise in the front part of the 0
louse. Thinking it was a dog she called
>ut and to her great surprise a negro ran a
>ut by her, carrying her husband's gun, P
md as he passed struck her lightly on the
hunlHpr with a stink or his hand, saving
is he did so that if she told on him he ?
vould kill her. Of course she was very a
uuch frightened and called her husband
it once. The negro did not stop but ran
>n out through the garden, at the comer J?
>f the fence of which he dropped the gun, t(
joing away erapty-hauded.
The neighbors at once gathered and
earch was made for the scoundrel, but "
le had made good his escape. The blood
lound could not take up the trail either, V
is so many persons had walked over the 1
legro's tracks before she was put on it. n
The lady says the negro was a stranger
o her, but she noticed that he was a **
nulatto and wore a light shirt. If caught J*
le will no doubt be severely dealt with, ?
:or our women must be protected, and "
he only way is to make an example of e
he guilty ones who forget the fate meted ?
)ut in the"past. 1
A Trip to Orangeburg.
It was our good fortune last week to
spend a few days in the hustling and pro- t
jressive city of Orangeburg, in attendance
upon the sessions of the grand lodge
Knights of Pythias, as a representative
from Bamberg lodge, No. 38. While there ^
we were delightfully entertained in the ^
Mine of J. A. Berry, Esq., a rising young
ittorney of that city, and it was also our t
pleasure to meet many of our old friends,
among whom were Editors Parks and :
Sims, and Col. W. G. Smith, as well as
many others from various parts of the t
State. The session of the grand lodge
was a most harmonious one, and the proceedings
were characterized by the utmost ^
pleasantness.
J. M. Knight, of Sumter, was elected
grand chancellor; J. A. Summersett, of
Columbia, grand vice chancellor; B. A. j
Morgan, of Greenville, grand prelate; J. c
A. Berry, of Orangeburg, grand master at
arms; G. W. Reeves, of Branchville,
grand inner guard; M. H. Witt, of New <
Brookland, grand outer guard; J. H. '
Thorn well, of Fort Mill, grand keeper of
records and seal; Wilson G. Harvey, Jr.,
of Charleston, grand master of exchequer;
M. L. Bonham, of Anderson, supreme
representative. Maj. Havelock Eaves, a
member of Bamberg lodge, was re-ap- {
pointed chairman of the ways and means
committee, a position which he has filled
with credit for two years.
Orangeburg certainly did herself proud (
in her entertainment of th? visitors. It
seemed that each and every citizen of the
town took an interest in the visitors and
endeavored to make them enjoy their
stay. A banquet was tendered on Wednesday
evening, served by the daughters of
the Confederacy for the purpose of raising
funds for the monument to General Wade
Hampton. It was a magnificent affair.
Col. W. G. Smith acted as master of ceremonies,
and there were over four hundred
guests seated at the tables. Eloquent
speeches were made by Speaker M. L.
Smith, of Camden; Maj. H. Frank Wilson,
of Sumter, Governor D. C. Heyward, and
others.
We could hardly realize the town as
the same, so different was it from a few
years ago. We candidly believe no town
in the State has mader greater progress.
New and haudsomebuildings?residences,
business houses, etc , are to be seen on
every hand. And still the good work
I goes on. The finest kind of roads have
also been built in some places, and we
understand this work is to gather larger
proportions in the near future. Certainly
our friends there have just cause to be
proud of the wonderful growth and progress
of their city aloug all lines.

A Letter from Texas.
San Antonio, Texas, May 21,1903.
Mr. A. W. Knight, Editor The Bamberg
Herald?Dear Sir: The Herald has been
a most welcomed messenger since my arrival
here. Have been so much on the go
that I have not had time to write. My
last was to the County Times, and now I
;lrop you a few lines.* In my last I gave
i sketch of my trip as far as to the Sabine
River, where I passed over into this great
Empire State. A short run and we are in
:he famous oil fields of Beaumont, but
;hey are not situated near tfte railroad,
Deing some distance South of where we
massed. Yet the entire atmosuhere is iin
pregnated with the oil, and oil is the
;heme, and great quantities are to be seen
u large tanks, in transit on the railroads.
The large rice fields are interesting to
ook upon; this entire Gulf shore for hunIreds
of miles is rapidly becoming the
nost suitable place for the growth of rice
lince machinery can be used to such great
id vantage, both in the cultivation and
gathering of the grain. Sugar cane (the
ibbon) is extensively grown, and you are
:onstantly passing through great fields,
t is quite a novel sight to see the plownen
as they go in great companies coning
and returning to their labor over these
troad fields. Steam tram roads are used
o carry the cane to the large steam mills, i
Not until we reached the high rolling
lills, a dividing ridge betweeu the Coloado
and the great Guadaloupe rivers, do
rou come into a very desirable farming
ountry. Here you find the Germans and
iohemians have settled. They are good
armers, do thorough work; neat and
tandsome cottages are to be seen on all :
ides. By far the beU corn and cotton i
ields that I have yet seen.
But the entire South, as far as I have
lassed over, is very backward this year,
,nd especially the great river valleys of
his State, owing to excessive rains durng
the latter months of winter, and folowed
by a long cold spring. The farmers
re yet planting their cotton, but about
nished, now cutting out to a stand, and
joking very well, good healthy color, and
f it were not for the boll weevil, which
a3 of later years been very disastrous to
he cotton crop in this section, there would
e great prospects for a large crop here,
lut the future is doubtful. The corn is
ndeed beautiful, and as you reach the
igher elevations or tne estate, tne oats
nd wheat crops are doing well, and the
utlook is favorable for a good crop of
mall grain.
But let me drop one word for old Gonales,
the home of my early days. Here I
rst went to school, and the college walls
rom whence I graduated in 1860 are still
Landing, but have been remodeled into a
andsome private residence. My old home
as also been greatly changed, yet the old
ak that stood near the window where the
locking birds used to sing still remains.
"Oh! woodman, spare that tree,
Touch not a single bough,
In youth it sheltered me,
And I'll protect it now."
I was glad to see that something had
'ithstooa the "wreck of matter and the
rush of worlds." For truly it does seem
lat the last half century has wrought such
reat changes that we now behold a new
reation. No longer do we see great droves
f horses nor hear the tinkling bells of "
>wing herds, winding their way over hills nd
through the woods to their resting I
laces at the close of day. But in their I
;ead you see the cotton mills, electric |
nrmAo on/1 oil thinnn.

ations, conveniences and comforts of
lodern times.
But few of the old houses are now
;anding. All are new, many magnificent ,
uildihgs, both public and private. But I
>und no difficulty in finding my way, for
'hen a boy I had followed my father, the i
urveyor, who at that time had much to do J
1 the plan and survey of this city. Its
treets, even at that early period, were exjnded
far out into the country. Little did J
think that I should ever see them as they
ow appear.
I need not say that I am enjoying my
lip and in good health. I hope soon to
e with you all again. Expect to leave 1
ere about the 27th instant, and reach
ome about the last of this month, as I
xpect to stop a few days in Alabama
n my way back. Kind regards to all my
riends. L. N. Bellinger.

Indigestion Causes
Catarrh of the
Stomach.
For many years it has been supposed that
Catarrh of the Stomach caused indigestion
and dyspepsia, but the truth is exactly the
opposite. Indigestion causes catarrh. Repeated
attacks of indigestion Inflames the
mucous membranes lining the stomach and
exposes the nerves of the stomach, thus causing
the glands to secrete mucin instead of
the juices of natural digestion. This U
called Catarrh of the Stomach. Kodol
Dvsoensia Care
? mm ?'
relieves all inflammation of the mucous
membranes lining the stomach, protects the
nerves, and cures bad breath, sour risings, a
sense of fullness after eating, indigestion,
dyspepsia and all stomach troubles.
