The catalogue of the Carlisle Fitting 1
School will be issued this week from our ;
job department, and, if we do say it ourselves,
it is a fine piece of work. But
that is the only kind of printing done in

for turning out first-class work, and
our prices are reasonable, too.

We learn from the Dorchester Eagle
that Mr. W. E. Willis, former Head Master
of the Carlisle Fitting School at this
place, but who has been taking a special
course at Vanderbilt University in Nashville
for the past two years, will soon
leave for China, where he goes to do
missionary work, The best wishes of his
many friends here go with him.
Have your pictures enlarged, satisfaction
guaranteed. Frames made to order,

The friends of Mr. D. Graham Copeland
will regret to learn that he will not be
able to enter the Annapolis Naval Academy.
He left Bamberg about two weeks
ago to stand his examination there, and
while he stood a fine mental and physical
examination, the board threw him out on
account of his weight. The regulations
require that an applicant must weigh 120
pounds, and Mr. Copeland lacked only a
few pounds of the standard. We trust
that he will soon overcome this difficulty
and enter the Academy, for we feel sure
that he will make a fine record there.
The Presbyterian church is being improved
with a fresh c<>at of paint.
Look well to the sanitary condition of
the town. This is very important at this
season.
The cotton mill started up again last
Monday morning, after having been shut
down a week for repairs.
Services are being held at the factory
chapel every evening this week, and the
meeting will continue through Sunday.

The terra cotta pipe work on the street
by Mr. J. P. Murphy's residence has been
completed, and the street is now open for
travel. The delay was caused by not being
able to get dirt for the fill.
The baseball spirit is running high in
Bamberg now, and our people generally
are showing more enthusiasm than we
have seen in a long time. Let the boys
keep on giving us good, clean ball, and
their success will be reasonably certain.
The Waynesboro baseball boys area
lot of nice, gentlemanly fellows, and they
go in and play ball, evidently not expecting
to win games by kicking and making
themselves unpleasant generally. We
feel surethat they have made many friends
iu Bamberg, who will be glad to have them
come to see us again. They will leave for
home after this evening's game, by the
8 o'clock train.
Trnstees Elect Teachers.
The board of trustees of the Bamberg
graded school held a meeting last Thursday
for the purpose of electing teachers
and attending to other business. The following
teachers were elected for the ensuing
year: Mrs. J. A. Murdaugh and
Miss Leila Black, of Bamberg; Miss Gertrude
Hamilton, of Charleston; Miss Maud
Meetze, of Denmark, and Miss Isabella
Smoak, of Smoaks, Colleton county. The
last two are new teachers, and it will be
noted that one has been added to the
faculty. A superintendent of the school
was not elected at this meeting, and this
election will probably take place to-day
(Thursday.) We understand that the two
new teachers, Misses Meetze and Smoak,
are graduates of Winthrop College and
are trained teachers.
The trustees also considered the matter
of selling the bonds for the erection of a
new graded school building, this duty devolving
upon the board by the terms of
the act authorizing their issuance. It was
decided to receive bids for the $10,000 in
bonds up to Wednesday, July 15, at which
time they will be sold to the party paying
the highest price. The sale of these
bonds wilfbe duly advertised.

Morning Marriage. '
Miss Mary Lou Gill, the youngest <
laughter of Mrs. S. R. Garland, and Mr. j
3. B. Hoover, of Hampton, were happily
narried this (Wednesday) morning, at ,
aalf past eight o'clock at the residence of
ihe bride near town, Rev. M. L. Lawson, |
pastor of the Bamberg Baptist church, j
performing the ceremony. The wedding j
yas a very quiet one, only the immediate ]
relatives of the contracting parties being ,
present. The happy couple left on the ,
line o'clock train for a bridal trip before
aking up their residence in Hampton,
iheir future home. .
The groom is a prominent young busiless
man of Hampton and is a brother of
Or. H. F. Hoover, of this place. The
iride is very popular in Bamberg, where
ihe was born and reared and her very
nany friends here extend congratulations
ind good wishes, hoping that her future
ife will be one of happiness and proslerity.
Negro Boy Shoots Himself.
Last Friday afternoon about 3 o'clock a
ittle negro boy named John Brown accilentally
shot himself with a pistol, the
lullet causing almost instant death. The
x>y was the son of a negro woman who
:ooks for Mr. J. A. Byrd, and the accident
lappened at his servant's house in rear
>fhis residence.
It seems that the boy had been left at
tome to mind the babj', and had gotten
o pranking with an unloaded pistol. He
mapped the hammer for awhile on some
lieces of glass, but becoming tired of this
eached up and got a cartridge and put
nto it. The ball took effect over his left
?trc. on/1 Hp u'?c hefnre his mother. 1
J * ' ? ? , ,
vho was at Mr. Byrd's, could reach him,
ilthough she hurried immediately ou j
learing the shot.
There was uo one in the house at the ,
ime except the boy aud a young baby, j
>ut from the circumstances it is reasonibly
supposed that the above statement as j
o how he met his death is correct.
The pistol was a cheap weapon, of 38 ]
ialibre, and was kept at the house by the
>oy's mother. Coroner Bessinger empanelled
a jury and held an inquest over
he bbdy Saturday morning, and the verlict
was that he came to bis death from
in accidental pistol wound. The boy j
was about ten years old.
m j
Baseball (iames. j
The game of baseball at the park last ;
Monday afternoon was one of the pretti- j
ist exhibitions seen here in some time.
The Waynesboro boys play ball with a ,
map and vigor that is delightful to lovers i
pf the game, and they are gentlemanly in J
heir conduct. There was no kicking
;hroughout the game. The score was five
,o three in favor of Waynesboro, but
Bamberg would have been the winner had i
t not been for costly errors on the first
inning. ,
Waynesboro went to the bat first and
piled up four runs, but they only succeed- j
id in forcing one other man across the
plate during the balance of the game, j
Bamberg did not score on the first inning,
ind the runs to her credit were made some (
:ime later.
Altogether it was a good game, and we |
pnly regret that more of our people were
aot present. We trust that hereafter the
young men who are trying to provide
amusement during the summer afternoons ,
will have better encouragement. The}'
have gone to great expense, and our people
should show their appreciation by at- (
lending the games in greater numbers.
Some people may not think so, but nevertheless
it is a fact that good ball games
here during the summer will advertise the
town and be of benefit to us.
The game Tuesday afternoon was also
a good one, but our boys played better
ball than on Monday afternoon, and as a ,
consequence they won by a score of eleven
to five. The Waynesboro boys played
well, fcut the Bamberg aggregation of ball
tossers were a little too fast for them.
Cameron pitched for Bamberg Monday
afternoon and our own Hoffman occupied
the box Tuesday and pitched a good
game. Iu fact all our boys played good,
snappy ball, the work of Osteen, Bamberg,
Brabham and others being especiallj' fine.
Osteen was easily the star player of the
game, never ueglecting au opportunity,
and he was good for a hit every time he
came to the Oat. Me is an au-rouna player,
aud B&mberg is fortunate in having him
on her team. Some brilliant playing was
done on both sides, both teams making
several double plays.
We note with a great deal of satisfaction
that a much larger crowd was present
Tuesday afternoon, and we are indeed
glad that our people are showing a disposition
to patronize the sport more liberally.
Many out of town visitors were present,
Denmark, Blackville,and Branchville
beiug well represented. If our own
people will attend the games well we can
have good ball, for then good teams will
come here, even if Bamberg is a small,
place to support a first-class baseball
team.
The game this (Wednesday) afternoon
is about to begin as we go to press, aud it is
safe to say that it will be hotly contested.
Our boys intend to win if possible, and
Waynesboro is equally anxious to carrv
off the honors. It was hoped that A. M.
aud W. M. Brabham would arrive home
to-day from Wofford College, which
would have materially strengthened our
team, but they will not get here until tomorrow,
too late for this series of games.

Branchville'a Message.
Branchvii.le, June 15.?Profiting by
the experience of others and realizing I
that our soil is adapted to the culture of ]
tobacco, more of the weed has been 1
planted this year than ever before. We
are informed that $100 an acre has already <
been offered for a good part of it as it now s
stands in the field.
Ou Sunday our streets were given over 1
* - 'L - 1 huW a ronninn (
10 cue eoiujeu juasuu.i n - - ?
About oue hundred delegates were in at- <
tendance and the}7 marched in formal and i
diguified procession to their school house
where memorial services were held. t
Crops are at present in a flourishing
condition, and should the weather con- <
tiuue favorable the industrious farmers i
will reap the fruits of their toil and energy. '
We believe the stores* iu this place are i
closed later -than in any other respectable <
town its size in this section of the State.
Some effort ought to be made to induce t
the merchants to close at a reasonable I
hour iu the evening so as to give both (
themselves and their clerks time for rec- (
reation and pleasure. The moral influ- I
ence of the clerks ought to be sufficient
to bring about this much-needed result. t
Our town authorities are to be con- s
gratulated upon the good and effective i
work the}7 have accomplished within the r
past three years. By their untiring ener- i
gy and persevering zeal they have con- I
structed many permanent improvements, t
for which they deserve the gratitude of r
the community, but it seems they have t
not been mindful enough of the sewerage <
system. The dilapidated ditches on many r
of the streets ought to give way immedi- t
ately to terra cotta piping, which experi- F
ence has proven to be cheaper and more t
effective. For the better protection of 1
public health and safety a certain amount f
ought to be expended each j7ear for such t
permanent improvements. c
This town is not as badly infested with 1
vagrants and worthless negroes as it has c
been in the past, and the consequence is
there is less inebriety and vulgarity to c
disturb the respect and quiet of this ?
peaceful community. t

Dur neighboring towns are enjoying the *
benefits of these enterprises,while Branchrille
sits idly by and allows others who ij
ire shrewder and more progressive to "V
reap rich harvests from their small in- t<
pestments. 0

Several of the folks in town attended

The amateurs (fishermen) were seen
ligging bait before breakfast one mornng
last week to torment the finny tribe
vith at Howell's old mill. Their catch
ivith what they bought made them a fine
linner.
A small purse was made up here for
he flood sufferers in Spartanburg county,

all needs.
It is reported from a reliable source
hat the citizens here will send a reprelentative
to Columbia in July to meet the
Hate board to look into the matter of renoving
the dispensary from this place.
Ul of the freeholders in town signed the
)etition except four, and according to law
wo-thirds of the freeholders can have it
emoved by proving that it is an injury
o the town's interest. In the letter to
me of the petitioners here, written by a
neraber of the State board of control,
hey stated that a petition for the dis>ensary
had been presented to the county
>oard also, but the people here are at a
oss to know where the petition came
rom unless it was signed by non-freetolders
in town and residents in the
ountry. Anyway, we are expecting some
ight on the subject after the State board
neets in July.
What is the matter with our new coun:il
? No move as yet to have the sidecalks
cleaned off, although they have

Paine's Celery
Compound
CURES RHEUMATISM.
Rheumatism, which does its terrible work
in the muscles, joints, and tissues, is caused by
uric acid which gathers in the blood. To get
rid of this poisonous acid which produces the
irritations, pains, agonies, inflammations, and
swellings peculiar to rheumatism, Paine's
Celery Compound should be used without
delay. No other medicine gives such prompt,
cheering, and happy results. It is the only
medicine that prevents a return of the dreaded
disease. Paine's Celery Compound braces
the nerves, the blood is quickly cleared of all
irritating poisons, tissue and muscle are built
up, and the digestive organs perfectly toned.
Do not treat with indifference the slightest
rheumatic symptoms; the early use of Paine's
Celery Compound will save you weeks and months
of suffering. Mr. S. D. Conway,
St. Louis, Mo., was permanently cured by
Paine's Celery Compound after repeated failures
with other medicines and physicians; he
says:?
441 am 64 years of age, and have lived in
St. Louis 27 years, and all this time with the
exception of three years, I have served in the
Engineers' Department as Inspector. Last
winter I contracted rheumatism and was laid
up. I tried all remedies and doctors, but all
failed until I struck Paine's Celery Compound,
which has made a permanent cure in ray case.
I have recommended it to many, and they
have used it with the same result."
