* * ?Sumter Herald.
In the third game of the series played
- . Wtcoon T.anrens and Bamberer. the visi
, tors were outclassed by the fast playing J
i _ of the home team. Hoffman pitched a
1 splendid game, allowing few hits and
showing good head work at critical meet
ments. Had it not been for one or two
- errors made by the,home team's infield,
the result would have beeu a string of
goose eggs for Laurens. As it was, Bamberg
won by a score of 9 to 2. This game
was played after we went to press Wednesday
afternoon, and it made three
straight victories for our boys over the
Laurens aggregation.
Three years ago Mr. H. J. Brabham
planted grafted pecan trees, of the celebrated
Stuart varieties, ou about a fourth
of au acre of land at his residence. By
special attention they have all lived and
*- done well. Several days ago he decided
i that they needed some trimming. From
the limbs he took off the Nursery got 500
buds for budding ou common stock.
r These trees will bear some of the largest
nuts that grow in the world, and the
ky bads sell in Mississippi for 10c each, at
which price Mr. Brabham would have
py; realizea $50 from only a dozen trees,
fethree years planted.

The family of Mr. Win. Stokes and
Mrs. M. A. Adams moved to Edisto last
week.
"Spot," the bird dog belonging to Mr.
C. J. S. Brooker, was killed by a train
last Friday morning.
Last Monday was salesday, but there
were no public sales and only a small
crowd was in town.
The section of country around Bamberg
and Denmark can show some as fine crops
as any county in the State.
Mr. A. Kirsch has rented the residence
of Mrs. M. A. Adams on Railroad avenue,
and will occupy it at once.
The chain gaug is at present doing some
good work on the New Bridge road. It
is being straightened as well as worked.
From the wa}T new stores are being
built, our people must believe that business
in Bamberg is on a decided increase.
Our merchants are leaving for the
Northern markets, and we understand
they will buy large stocks of goods, as the
?4i iT
crop ouuook is unguu
Good rains have fallen very generally
in this section during the past week, and
the crops have been much benefitted
thereby'. The prospect at present is good.
The New Bridge road on this side of
the river is beiug put in good condition.
Let our Orangeburg friends now give attention
to the other side. This is an important
road, and should be kept unwell.
Buildiug and improvement is the order
of the day in Bamberg now. Let the
good work go ou, but don't forget good
roads. We must have these to induce
people from a distance to come aud trade
with us.
The $2,000 appropriated by city couucil
is soon to be spent on the roads, aud
we suggest that the first work done
should be the building of a new road to
the Hunter's Chapel section. It is badly
needed.
One fact should make many uew exhibitors
for the next State Fair?the society
pays the freight on all exhibits grown or
produced iu this State, thus enabling
exhibits to be sent to and returned from
the fair without cost to the exhibitor.
We understand that Messrs. H. C. and
Jno. F. Folk will tit up the hall above
their three stores into an opera house
and lodge rooms. This is something
very much needed iu Bamberg, and
ought to pay handsome dividends on the
money invested.
Mr. J. C. Redmon, of this county, and
recently of this city, who graduated from
Wofford college at the last session, has
been elected as professor of ureeK ana
Latin in the Carlisle Fitting School at
Bamberg. This is quite an honor to our
talented young friend. ? Orangeburg
Patriot.
The social feature of the State Fair is
an important item in considering the
advantages of being an exhibitor. You
meet the best and most progressive farmers
and stock breeders in the State and
make many friends who are valuable to
yon. Prepare a good exhibit to go to the
next State Fair, October 27-30th.
The Orangeburg baseball team has been
disbanded for the season. The boys gave
us some fine ball and the lovers of the
sport w ill regret that "all is over" for the
remainder of the season. It takes money
to keep up a good team and we hear that
the managers had trouble to collect what
had been subscribed to the baseball fund.
?Orangeburg Patriot.
Mr. H. C. Folk is prepariug to erect a
brick store uext to his store, thus tilling
up the vocant lot between his store and
Mr. Kirsch. The building is to be 32 feet
wide, 75 feet long, and two stories. Col.
Jno. F. Folk owns the two adjoining
stores, and he will put another story on,
this making a solid two-story block of
five stores from the corner to Mr. C. R.
Brabham's. Our town is certainly on a
boom, and there is more building going
on in the business section than for years.
City council held a regular monthly
meeting Tuesday afternoon. The regular
routine business was transacted, and G.
Frank Bamberg, E. C. Hays, and G. P.
Harmon, were appointed as a committee
to act in the matter of the roads appropriation
of $2,000 by city council. This
committee is to determine where and how
the money is to be spent and on what
roads. It is expected that the work under
this Appropriation will begin during
this month, aud we understand the first
work will be the building of a new road
from Bamberg down in the Hunter's
Chapel sectiou.
Mr. C. R. Calhoun, who has been principal
of the Bamberg graded school for
the past three years, has accepted the position
of principal of the Walterboro
graded school, aud will assume charge at
the openingof the fall session next month.
Mr. Calhoun is a progressive, up-to-date
teacher, and made a most en viable record
with the school here. He almost trebled
the enrollment during the three years he
was at the head of our school, and we expect
him to make a fine record at Walterboro.
We heartily commend he and his
most excellent family to the good people
of our sister town.
Thought to Assume Charge.
Last Thursday afternoon three young
white fellows came down to Bamberg
from Langley for the purpose of having
a good time. They had been in our city
only one short hour when they were taKen
in charge by chief of police Kirkland.
They were on factory hill, drunk and
raising a row. The whole street was
taken into their own keepiug, no one was
allowed to pass the place where they had
stationed themselves. When policeman
Kirkland arrested them, all but one. a
little fellow of great age, submitted quietly.
Aid was called iu for the little fellow,
and all the Langley fellows were in
the house of the little door in a few minutes.
Mayor Johnson in bis court gave
one twenty days and another ten. The
other was allowed to go. They took the
days and are now doing time on the couuty
chain gang.
Gallftut Company G.
The Bamberg Guards, or Company G,
as it is named, returned on Monday
morning from the Isle of Palms. The
second regiment, judging from the appearance
of Company G, must have had
a big time. Haggard faces and slow
marching give signs of hard work. From
all we can gather, the encampment was
not so much of a picnic as was anticipated.
The cheers given by the Guards on
returning were not quite so hearty as
were the ones given on the setting out.
While every one confesses a good time,
we feel sure that Company G is quite
glad to be at home once more.
The Profession of "Up Jinks."
"Progressive up jinks," a most entertaining
game, was the chief entertainment
at the delightful "at home" given by Miss
Hibernia Counts on last Wednesday evening.
Those who had gathered for the up
jinkins party were welcomed by Miss
^ - ? -i - * . r .1 ai. ..A ^
uouius anu rnaue 10 ieei mai uu evcumg
j of pleasure was to be their lot. Tables
arranged iu the large parlor and drawing
room were soon surrounded by the
jolly merry makers. Most of the evening
was given to the progressors as they
went from table to table, and when the
progression had ended Mr. Vernon Brabham
had proven himself to be the most
progressive of all the progressors. He
was given the first prize. Miss Salley
Felder was rewarded with the booby.
Delightful refreshments were served
during the later part of the evening:
The invited guests were: Miss Bessie
Lee Black, Mr. Robert Hartzog; Miss
Blanche Livingston, Mr. W. Frank Johnson
; Miss Ida Livingston, Mr. Greaton
E. Bamberg; Miss Myra Hootou, Mr.

RECORD OF BASEBALL TEAM.
Bamberg's Team and The Record It
Has Made.
The baseball team which has represented
Bamberg during the season just
closed, has made a record of which any
team might be proud. Fast playing has
thp wnrk ?f our team and
ginger at the right time accounts for the
long string of victories for the Bamberg
aggregation. Teams in the lower part
of the State have been unable. to cope
with the fast ball tossers from this towu.
Bamberg has not lost a series to any
town in the State; she has played every
tewn in our State, which professes to have
had a team, save Columbia. We therefore
justly claim second place in the
State and leaving out Columbia, whom
we never played, we hold tirsst place.
Laurens defeated everj'thing iu the upper
part of the State until she met Columbia;
we defeated Laurens three straights.
The crowds during the first of the
season were good; but they finally
dropped off to nothing. The people of
the town have given the association good
backing and they have the sincere thanks
of the association.
This is one season that has witnessed
plenty of ball in Bamberg. Next season
let the people get togethar and put out
even a better aggregation than they had
this year. I
The following mpn composed the team
which*has been so victorious:
W. G. Hoffman) (Captain), and Laval,
pitchers; C. Brabham, and Norvell,
catchers; Holland, 1st base; Bamberg,
2nd base; McCathern, 3rd base; A. M.
Brabham, short-stop; W. M. Brahham,
left field; Wise, center field ; Kinard,
and Walker, right field.
The following is a list of the games
played by the Bamberg team this season :
Won?Bloomer girls (1), Carlisle Fitting
School (2), Orangeburg (3), Waynesboro
(2), Aiken (3), St. Georges (1), Denmark
(1), Laurens (3).

Ehrhardt, August 4.?We are now
having very nice rains for the suffering
crops. The prospect is much brighter
now than it was ten days ago for a good
cotton crop.
Mr. L. W. Ritter came to town last
Saturday with an open boll of cotton in
his hand; the first of the seasou down
here. Mr. A. W. Brabham says he has
already picked some and will have a bale
on the market in about two weeks.

Braiichville's Message.
Branchville, August 3.?At the cost
of a few dollars wonderful improvements
are being made on some of the streets and
now they present a more animated and
prepossessing appearance, which is more
pleasing to the aesthetic tastes of our
citizens and more conducive to their
safety.
The refreshing rains of last week
brightened the prospects of a good crop
to a .considerable extent. The farmers
have laid by, and are awaiting the developments
of variable August with
slight apprehension.
The "log rolling" of the Woodmen of
the World last Tuesday evening was an
en iovable occasion and was well attended
bv the frieuds and relatives of the order.
The address of welcome was made in a
graceful and dignified manner by Dr. J.
S. Wimberley, who announced the inability
of the speaker of the evening to be
present aud that short addresses would
be made by local talent. Daiuty refreshments
were served and the Woodmen
dispensed their hospitality in a lavish and
profuse manner. Miss Leila Marchant, an
accomplished musician of Orangeburg,
played most beautifully on the piano.
Mrs. T. O. Edwards was the genial
hostess ata delightful entertainment given
at her elegant home last Thursday evening.
On Wednesday evening,the 19th instant,
all lovers of the^ancing art will have an
excellent opportunity of enjoying themselves
in our spacious city hall which is
well adapted to that purpose. The young
men will give a ball on that evening in
honor of their butterfly friends, and a
large crowd will be expected from the
neighboring towns. A pleasant time is
assured all who will avail themselves of
this opportunity to relax themselves from
their daily toil and drudgery and enjoy
the pleasures of an evening. Music will
be furnished by the Orangeburg band, and
no special invitations will be issued.
Last Friday afternoou the Branchville
boys defeated the Smoaks team by a
regular Augusta vs. Charleston score of
21 to 0. This was Smoaks first attempt
on the diamond, and until Kinard and
Moye were imported from Bamberg they
had little confidence in their ability. Two
plavers could not, however, win the game,
and the result is Branchville had an easy
walk over.
The home team played two games with
31ackville last Wednesday and Thursday
?the first of which was won by Branchville
by a score of 10 to 7, the second by
Blackville by a score of 7 to 5. The batteries
were: for Blackville, Crum, Boylston
and "Bologna." Fairey pitched a most
magnificent game, striking out 23 men in
the first game and 18 in the second. The
boys were royally entertained by their
Blackville friends, and when they return
a game on Thursday everything will be
done to reciprocate for their kind and
thoughtful attention.

with Branchville resulted in a tie?the
Branchville team winning the first game,
and the Blackville aggregation being victorious

of 7 to 5. Blackville plays Orangeburg

Mr. Walter Green, of Williston, is putting
his knitting mill into operation. Mr.
Green's enterprise is backed by substantial
capital, and the company is to put in
at once a spinning establishment and
yarn mill. The present knitting mill
employs about 75 operatives, aud when
the other departments are completed
there will be about 300 regular operatives,
making quite a good factory for Blackville.

very good here this year, quite a deal of
money being handled, as there are hundreds
of acres planted annually here now
in these crops. Several enterprising farmers
are also experimenting in tobacco this
season, aud the undertaking bids fair to
, succeed. The expert tobacco men say
, that it is a good grade of tobacco, and
I that the lands here are well suited for tobacco
culture. With melons, cantaloupes,
' tobacco, the peach and pecau orchards
being put in around town, Blackville
P gives promise of developing into a great
r truck-growing centre, and will doubtless
regain somewhat of her former flourishing
business. Indeed, she seems already
to be doing so. Success to Blackville as
. a horticultural centre.

Rescued from Suffering
and Death by
PAINE'S
Celery Compound
THE GREAT flEDICINE.
MR. ALFRED BROWN,
A Prominent and Popular Citizen; Says:
'After the Use of Paine's Celery Compound,
I Am Now in the Best of Health."
The greatest of modern physicians, Prof.
idwardE. Phelps, M. D., LL. D., after years
>f long practice and close scientific study, gave
o suffering and diseased men and women his
narvelous, life giving prescription, with the
ronviction and positive knowledge that it had
jeculiar virtues and ample powers to cure.
Thousands of the strongest testimonials from
he best known and most reliable men and
women of our country fully sustain the claims
nade by Dr. Phelps regarding his incomparj
ible Paine's Celery Compound.
One of the most convincing proofs furnished,
:omes recently from a gentleman widely
cnown in the capital city of the Dominion of
Canada. We refer to Mr. AJired brown, 91
3'Connor St., Ottawa, Ont. Mr. Brown's
etter fully demonstrates the fact that the
greatest sufferer may cast off his or her burden
sf disease and become well, strong, and happy,
[t proves, too, that the great medicine main:ains
more fully than ever before its unrivaled
place in the estimation of people of wealth
and social standing as well as with the masses.
Mr. Brown says:?
" I acknowledge with thankfulness and
pleasure the fact that I have been cured of a
very painful illness of eight years' standing by
jse of Paine's Celery Compound. I had,
during the years of my illness, tried almost all
the advertised medicines without deriving any
good results. I was also treated by several of
the best doctors of this city, hoping to find
that one of them, at least, would understand
my case.
411 was getting worse, and was told I was
incurable. I was indeed in a critical condition.
I could not go from the house alone,
as I was liable to sudden collapse. I tried
hospital treatment, but no relief or good results
came to me. I could not sleep; anything that

weak, restless, tired, and despondent; was
obliged to walk about with my hands pressed
Firmly into my left side to ease my pains; my
feet and hands were cold continually; had
inclination to vomit, had profuse, cold sweats,
quick breathing, and would be racked with
pain for hours at a time.
"After the regular use of Paine's Celery
Compound for a time, I am now in the best of
health, have good appetite, and can use any
kind of food. Thank God I am my old self
once more, all through the use of Paine's
Celery Compound."

44 If women would pay more attention to
their health we would have more happy
wives, mother* and daughters, and if they
would observe results they would find
that the doctors' prescriptions do not
perform the many cures they are given
credit for.
" In consulting with my druggist he ad*
vised McElrce's Wine of Cardui and Thcd*
ford's Black-Draught, and so I took it and
have every reason to thank him for a new
life opened up to me with restored health,
and it only took three months to cure roe."
Wine of Cardui is a regulator of the
menstrual functions and is a most astonishing
tonic for women. It cures
scanty, suppressed, too rrequent, irregular
and painful menstruation, falling
of the womb, whites and flooding. It
is helpful when approaching womanhood,
during pregnancy, after childbirth
and in change of life. It freSuently
brings a dear baby to homes
lat have been barren for years. All
druggists have $1.00 bottles of Wine
of Cardui.
