Mr. Pierce Sweatt, of Blackville, has been appointed town marshal and entered upon his duties Tuesday. This is a good season and surely everybody can pay their debts this year.

C" We trust city council will look after the f._ matter of keeping the streets and sidet walks clear. Many people object to the PI streets 'seing blockaded "with vehicles and the sidewalks with goods. Oysters at Moye's next Friday and Satr The number of local telephones steadily increases, and the manager of the exchange is kept busy making new connections. People are beginning to realize what a &reat convenience a telephone is. The Boston Stars will appear at Denmark Friday evening, the 14th, at Guess's hall, under the auspices of the Denmark lyceum. The same company will be here Saturday night, at the Fitting School chapel. Nice line boys' and misses' patent leather shoes at "W. D. Rhoad's. By reference to the letter of Prpf. Newman in another column, it will be seen that a farmers' institute will be held hen during December. The date will fce announced as soon as possible after November first. How many more of these little "shanties" is city council going to allow oe .Main street ? They are a disgrace to th? main business street of the town, and yel there is no ordinance prohibiting theii erection, which there should be. , New, fancy grocery, with new goods lowest prices, just opened, by J. I. Kinarc & Son, under Johnson's hotel. The streets of the town are getting in very bad shape. Many of them are full ol holes, making them'very rough. In fact some of the public roads are bettei than streets in town. Why don't council have the streets repaired and kept in fix: The new graded school building is very much in need of shades,for the windows, or inside blinds. Can't the ladies get up some entertainments during the winter and raise the money to buy them ? They can if they will, and we hope they will take the matter in hand. The tax books will open next Saturday, the loth, for the collection of State and county taxes. When you go to pay, be sure to give the name and number of your school district, and if you own property in more than one township, call for receipts in each township. Fresh oysters at Moye's every Friday and Saturday. The case of Williams against Weeks has been decided by the State Supreme St" > court, and the decision confirms the cir?-/ cuit judge. This was an action brought I against T. S. Weens as rroDate juage 01 Barnwell county for recovery of money lost through his failure to require a suffifcient bond. The decision means that his bondsmen will have to pay the money. J. I. Kinard & Son offer choice fancy groceries, reasonable prices, free delivery, *pbone 55.

Also fine stationery, memorandum books, tablets, fine box papers, ink, pens, blank books, ledgers, day books, letter files, and all kinds of office supplies. See our line and get prices. We carry everything a stationery store should have except school books. M. Moye will have large, nice, fresh oysters Friday and Saturday. Bp, > A representative of a street fair and carnival was in the city last week eudeavoring to secure a lot and bring the company for an entire week, the time to be |pv the week after the State Fair in Colum| bia. We presume that he was successful ?:. and that the fair will be held here that v week. It consists of a number of free attractions and shows to which an admission fee is charged. pfe Mr. Channie W. Reeves, a young white p man of Branchville, was killed at Lang&;v ley last week by a train. He was flagman j|< on a freight train and had gone to the ^ rear to flag a coming train. He went to % - sleep by the side of the track and was 2 struck by the engine of the coming traiu fef ; and instantly killed. He was well-known iv ' in Bamberg, having lived here at one time, & and was recently married. Everything new to eat at J. I Kinard & : . Son's. Ring'phone 55 and supply your Wi wants in the fancy grocery line. Choice goods at the lowest prices. There are few if any weekly newspapers 'T in the State which print more new ads. each week than The Herald. Our advertisers appreciate the value of frequent changes, and this is the way to make advertising pay. There is no use in adver? tising if you are going to keep the same ad. standing week after week. We are always glad to change advertisements, and make no charge for it. It costs you ,ri- the same wlether you change yqjir ad. f . often or not.

Kistler and Miss Carrie Kis-; tier, of Denmark, have moved to Orangeburg, where they will reside in the future. * Don't fail to see the performance of the * Bos :on Stars at the Carlisle Fitting School chapel Saturday night. It is well worth the price of admission. 1 We hope our planters will take much interest in the farmers' institute to be held > here in December. Much may be learned * which will be profitable to them, and we hope to see a large attendance. > Change your advertisements often, but get your changes into this office not later Than Monday. We are very busy now, . and cannot change ads. when the copy i reaches us later than Monday. As a rule Bamberg has the worst kept : streets of any town that we know of. In no other place are merchants allowed the privilege of blockading the streets and sidewalks with all sorts of goods fruit stands, etc. County Treasurer Jno. F. Folk has turned over the county funds the amount of ?136.32, this being interest on daily deposits from November 1st, 1903, to September 30,1904. This amount of interest comes in very nicely for the county. The Boston Stars, a musical organization which has delighted Bamberg audiences before, will aoDear at the Fitting School chapel next Saturday night. Those who heard them year before last were too well pleased for "us to say anything in their favor. There will be no reserved seats, so you had best come early and secure a good seat. Call and see my line of suits and overcoats. They are made by skilled tailors, J and the prices are rock bottom. , ( W. D. Rhoad.

Rice bought the store occupied by him, and C. W. Rentz bought the store occupied by Mrs. Shuck & Co. It is probable that some of them at least will be enlarged and improved. Letter to E. C.

Clemson College, S. C? Oct. 7, '04. Editor Bamberg Herald, Bamberg, S. C. Dear Sir: Your paper of October 3rd contained a reference to Farmers' Institute to be held at Bamberg. Mr. W. M.

As stated in my communication referred to in your paper, these Institutes will be held during the m onth of December. As soon as practicable after November 1st, dates will be assigned for all of the Institutes for which petitions are received. No petition after that date will be considered. There is no occasion for any othel petition from Bamberg. The one already 1 recei red and on file is sufficient. Yours truly, J. S. Newman, . Director of Farmers' Institutes. PILL PLEASURE.
