The total taxable property of the town of Bamberg is $371,075, which is an increase of $26,936 over 1903. This shows that the town is improving rapidly. Next . year real estate is to be returned, and :r, there will be a much larger proportionate increase. The property tax of the town for : " this year at the levy of six mills will amount to $2,260. Mr. Walter H. Savory, linotype agent, was here Monday, and we signed an order ?&!?" . for one of these type-setting machines, tvv be delivered some time during the summer.

If you don't see him, drop a card in the post office, and he will call for your horse and fix him up in nice shape. Our good friend, Miss Virginia D. Young, of the Fairfax Enterprise, does us an injustice we think. We did not see her nice little thing on spring in the Enterprise, but we read it in the Edgefield Chronicle and credit to that paper was duly given by us. She ought to know us well enough to be sure that we would not knowingly give credit to a paper not entitled to it. We have been too busy to read many of our exchanges for the past few weeks is why it escaped us in the Enterprise. But it is up to Wigfall to sue for pardon and quit sinning. f % I y m Fine heifer, one year old, for sale by W. D. Rhoad. Wanted.?Fresh country butter at D. W. Shealy's bakery. A large part of the Lexington county chain gang escaped last Monday. The tax books have closed, and those who have not paid their State and county taxes will have the penalty added. The low price of cotton, the reduction of the acreage and the use of fertiliesrs for this year's cotton crop is the almost absorbing topic of conversation these days Jno. R. Bellinger, Esq., went to Orangeburg this morning (Wednesday), where, as Most Worthy Grand Master of the State, he will lay the corner stone of the new graded scnooi Duuaing. The question is not, will the farmers continue to hold their cotton, but will they plant 25 per cent, less cotton this spring? Let this necessary sentiment be driven home between now and planting time by every friend of Southern prosperi.y. While coming from his farm Monday morning, Mr. J. C. Folk heard something in the bushes near by. On looking he found it to be an alligator. He had nothing with which to kill it with, so he crossed the road and picked up a cypress pole and knocked it senseless and then cut its throat. It measured exactly six feet. Baldoc township has a better agricultural college than Clemson is with all its fiue buildings and big revenue. The younger and more active teachers in the Baldoc school are Messrs. J. L. Ellis,* W. I. Johns, Walter Calhoun and John Fowke. They raise mules and horses, fine hogs and prize cattle, sheep, turkeys, geese, blue blooded chickens and ducks in addition to farm supplies. A day spent on their farms would be worth a six months of book learning.?Barnwell People. Hon. T. G.

He states that although the appropriation to buy a site for a public building in Aiken failed to pass congress at the last session, this omnibus bill will be the first one considered in December, and will undoubtedly pass. Congressman Patterson will surely look after it carefully.?Aiken Recorder. Kitchen Grocer Cases Decided. The State Supreme Court has decided the three cases appealed from JOrangeburg county in the suit on promissory notes for kitchen cabinets. Mr. T. A. Green, of Spartanburg, purchased the notes, and the parties who gave them refused to pay. He brought suit against J. B. Traywick, Henry S. Spires, and Jennings, makers of the notes. The Circuit Judge decided in favor of the defendants and plaintiff appealed. The Supreme | Court was evenly divided on the question, and according to the constitution the decision of the Circuit Judge stands. This means that Mr. Green finally loses the cases. Municipal Ticket. Some people seem to be in doubt as to the municipal ticket headed by G. Moye Dickinson for mayor, that is they do not seem to know whether the men on the ticket will run or not. In order that all doubts may be set at rest, we will say that these gentlemen agreed to allow the use of their names before the ticket was announced in The Herald. No man's name was used without his consent, as has been the case heretofore in municipal campaigns. The Dickinson ticket is the only full ticket in the field that we know of. The names of several gentlemen have been mentioned on other tickets, but the most of thera have told us that they will not run, or allow the use of their names under any circumstances. In addition to those who authorized us last week to say that they would not serve, several others have also said they would not run. Messrs. W. M. Cauthen, Geo. A. Jenniugs and H. H. Copeland will not consent to the use of their names. Mr. Rhoad Not a Candidate. Seeing my name mentioned in The Herald among the candidates for warden, I ask to withdraw it. I never shrink from my duty, but I served on council fopr years ago and don't think my turn should come again so soon. W. D. Rhoad. Public Meeting Suggested. I would suggest a public meeting of the citizens of Bamberg in town hall to talk about electric lights and waterworks, so we can vote intelligently. A Tax-payee. New Stationery. The Herald Book Store received this week the largest, prettiest and most complete line of stationery ever shown in Bamberg, We mean every word we say. Come and see the stock. No one can touch us in price or quality, to say nothing of variety. We have anything you can call for in the stationery line, and can suit any taste.

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 is called Catarrh of the Stomach.

John Maxwell, a stout Protestant, who had taken part in the battle of Rullion Green, Nov. 2S, 1GGG, successfully defied fhe many attempts that were made to capture him. Once he naa a very narrow snave. j.ne soiuiers traced him to Edinburgh and there gave him a chase. Bolting down a close, he dashed into a tavern and explained his desperate, case to the landlady, who locked him into the chest that held the oatmeal. The soldiers then entered and searched the house from top to bottom, but could not find their man. Vowing they knew he was on the premises, they called for drink and sat down to think over the matter. One of them, seated on the box that contained the fugitive, remarked: "I wouldn't say but the Whig is In this very kist (chest). Guidwife, gie's the key and we'll see.K In no way put about, the landlady TrQnt trt *Kp dnnr on/1 ptHpH tn hpr Hrl upstairs: "Jeanie, rin to the guidman for the key o' the kist till we see if a Whig can lie In the meal and no be boasting (coughing) wi't." At this the soldiers burst out laughing, felt there was truth in the guidwlfe's taunt drained their cups and departed. Maxwell at last managed to escape to Ireland, where he died. MACARONI. One Story of the Origin of the Name and the Diah. A great many stories are In existence about the origin of the word "macaroni" and the invention of the dish so designated. According to one authority, a drunken chef employed by one of the popes was responsible both for the name and the dish. He was preparing a souffle for the papal soup, and, having taken considerably more than a drop too much, he went on stirring the floor until the souffle was of the consistency of hard tack. The assistant chef, knowing that his holiness was not overpatient about things pertain.ing to the table, ventured to call the attention of his chef to this fact, and the latter, being a resourceful man, decided to make a paste instead of a souffle. He waited the result with some anxiety and responded to a call to appear before his holiness with considerable perturbation. Visions of a stay in the papal dungeon rose before him, and when the pontiff asked, with a smiling face, for the name of the wonderful paste served In the soup he was too nervous to think of a name. "My caro" (my favorite)' he replied at last and the pontiff, not catching the words exactly. said: "Macaroni? Well, in future never serve me a meal without a dish monoFnr) "?Tnrllo rm nrvHs SpntlneL A BRAVE TOREADOR. One of tbe Moof Thrilling Incident* of the Ball Binff. The famous Spanish toreador Reverte figured in one of the most thrilling Incidents ever witnessed in the arena. It was at Bayonne. After disposing of two bulls Beverte had twice plunged his sword into a third of great strength and ferocity, and, as the beast continued careering wildly the spectators began to hiss Reverte for bun gling. Wounded to tiie very quica or his pride, the Spaniard shouted, "The bull Is stein r and, throwing aside his sword, sank on one knee with folded arms in the middle of the ring. He was right, but he had not allowed for the margin of accident The wounded beast charged full upon him, but the matadore, splendid to the last, knelt motionless as a statue, while the spectators held their breath in horrified ~ * -? -aj At - uM1l suspense, tteacnmg ms yicuih, uue uun literally bounded at htm, and as be sprang he sank In death, with bis last effort giving one fearful lunge of the head that drove a horn into the thigh of the kneeling man and laid bare the bone from the knee to the joint Still Reverte never flinched, but remained kneeling, exultant In victory, but calmly contemptuous of applause, till be was carried away to heel him of his grievous wound. A Bold nan. A handsome English girl recently returned from Spain was recounting her experiences to a circle of friends, among whom was a Spaniard. "The thing that drlfehted me most" she said, "was that charming practice they have in flpwfri of offering you Instantly what you may chance to admire." "Do you approve at the custom ?" asked the Spanish friend. "Oh, yes J" was the reply.
