Bamberg is a good point at which to
locate a general wood working plant, to
supply building material and supplies of
all kinds.

Friday morning.
It's up to you?what??dry wood?where

The young ladies of the Epworth
? >' League will serve ice cream and cake at
the town hail JL'hursaay evening ana
night. Everybody is invited to come.
The first of the month brings trouble
both to the collector and the fellow who

as to which of the two has the most
trouble.
I have moved my meat market in rear
of store. 'Phone orders promptly filled.
L. C. Price.

contest of Isaac Myers, who wants J.
O. Patterson's seat in congress. Hearings

.game.

during the summer months, the
brokerage office of Mr, F. G. Gyles at
this place has been closed until next
September.

> A standard warehouse at Bamberg will
be a great thing for the farmers of this section,
lor they can store their cotton here
and draw money on it in case the price
did not suit them. Build the warehouse
by all means. Every planter should own
at least a few shares,of stock.
Be sure to attend the lawn fete at Mr.
E. J. Brabham's residence next Monday
and Tuesday afternoons and evenings.
The hours will be from 4 to 6 in the afternoons
and from 7 to 10:30 or later in the
evenings. The ladies propose to make
this one of the nicest affairs ever held in
the town.

wagon will be put on as soon as
season fairly opens. Any quantity can
now be supplied at ice house. L. C. Price.
Mr. J. T. O'Neal is soliciting subscriptions
of stock for a standard warehouse
to be erected here. The warehouse is to
be owned by a joint stock company, and
will be used for the storing of cotton and
other valuable goods. It seems now that
the warehouse is a certainty, most of the
stock having been subscribed. The building
is to cost about $3,000 or more.
At a meeting of Bamberg lodge, No. 38,
Knights of Pythias, held last Monday
evening, delegates were elected to repre-1
sent the lodge at the session of the grand I
lodge which meets in Beaufort May 16th.

Bamberg ought to have a board of trade
or some such organization of the business
men of the city. There are a number
of matters which such an organization
could carry through successfully if concerted
action was taken.
The State convention of the Epworth
League is to meet in Columbia this
month. The Bamberg League has elected
delegates to the State meeting. Misses
Marie Stokes and Gwendolyn Risher and
Mr. Isaac Felder are the delegates, with
Misses Mamie Gee Jennings and Myra
Hooton as alternates,
i. "Work on the new Methodist church is
going forward satisfactorily these days.
Most of the roof is on; and it is hoped to
have the building completed in time for
the commencement sermon of the Fitting
School. Our opinion is, however, that it
will not be finished by that time, as the
commencement is to take place the latter
part of May.

Contesting Mr. Patterson's Seat.
Congressman J. 0. Patterson was in
the city last Saturday, as a hearing was
held here to take testimony in his election
contest. Isaac Myers, a negro, is
making a contest for Mr. Patterson's seat
in congress, and the hearing took place
in the office of E. T. LaFitte, Esq., who
with Jno. R. Bellinger, Esq., represented
Mr. Patterson. Myers was represented
by a negro lawyer named Moorer from
urangeourg.
Two witnesses for Myers were examined
: D. D. Jeter and Charles Robinson,
both negroes, but their testimony
did not amount to anything. Myers evidently
has no idea of being seated, fie
is working for the $2,000 expense money
which congress allows for election contests.
Something should be done to stop
this sort of thing. It is simply a moneymaking
scheme for a few "smart Alex"
negroes.
New Game Law.
There is a new law on the statute books
which requires a license for hunting and
fishing. No game must be killed out of
season, and bond must be given by each
sporisman in the sum of $200. For catching
or shipping shad a license fee of $100
must be paid, and fortaking or shooting
wild duck and other game of this kind a
license fee of $50 is required.
Lawn Fete.
Next Monday and Tuesday'afternoons
and evenings, the ladies of the Methodist
church will give a lawn fete in the park
at Mr: H. J. Brabham's residence. Fancy
work will be offered for sale and various
kinds of refreshments will be served.
There will be various features to interest
both the young and the older people, and
the ladies promise a most enjoyable affair.
The proceeds are to be used to purchase
'? * *? ? -? A^nrnti
seats ior me new uxctuuuiob vuiuw>.
There is still considerable money to be
raised for this purpose, and all should
attend and help out the good cause.
Coming Marriage.
Handsome engraved cards have been
issued announcing the approaching marriage
of two of Bamberg's popular young
people, Mr. Angus M. Brabham and Miss
Clio Cope. The ceremony will take place
Wednesday evening, the 26th instant, at
six o'clock at the home of the bride's
parents in this city. The bride-to-be is
the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Jno. H.
Cope, while Mr. Brabham is a rising
young business man, being a member of
the firm of C. R. Brabham & Son.
What He Had Re(a)d.
A story is going the rounds in the
Court House of an Irishman who recently
went before Judge Stephens to be naturalized.
"Have you read the Declaration of In^onpnHence?"
the Court asked.
"I hov not," said Pat.
"Have you read the Constitution of the
United States?"
"I hov not, yer honor."
Judge Stephens looked sternly at the
applicant .and asked:
"Well, what have you read ?"
Patrick hesitated but the fraction of a
second before replying:
"I hov red hairs on me neck, yer honor,"

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 ]uices of natural digestion. This it
called Catarrh of the Stomach.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
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.
Kodol Digests What Yon Eat
Make the Stomach Sweet.

FOR THE CHILDREN
Every Boy Needs a Trade.
Few boys take to tasks that require
thought ;md persistent efforts. Yet
skilled work is the only employment in
demand.
iioacamers ana common laoorers
I glut the markets everywhere. The
: tradesmen and artisans are the ones
I that get the easiest jobs and the most
j money. The others are always hunting
work.
Should they accidentally stumble upon
a Job they cannot hold it A superficial
knowledge will not do. It must
be thorough.
Boys, learn a trade while young. After
you are twenty years old few will
be found who will take time and
trouble to teach you one. When you
are that old you will want a man's pay.
If you don't know anything you don't
get it Know nothings work at odd
Jobs and are paid the lowest scale.?
Gem.
Mental Arithmetic.
A very pleasing way to arrive at an
arithmetical sum without the use of
either a slate or pencil is to ask a person
to think of a figure, then to double
it, then to add a certain figure to it,
to halve the whole sum and finally
to subtract from that the figure first
thought of. You are then to tell the
thinker the remainder.
The key to the lock of these figures
la that half of whatever sum you request
to be added during the working
of the sum is the remainder.
But you must tell the thinker to think
of an even number or you will have
fractions to add. Here is an example:
Think of 2
Double it 4
Add eight to It 12
Halve it 6
Subtract the first number thought of.... 2
Remainder (half of syxn added) 4
Drop the Handlcercmex.
A ring Is formed by tbe players joining
hands, while one child, who is to
"drop the handkerchief," is left outside.
He walks round the ring, touching each
one with the handkerchief, saying the
following words:
I wrote a letter to my love,
I But on my way I dropped it
A little child picked It up
And put it in his pocket.
It wasn't you, it wasn't you.
It wasn't you?but it was you.
When he says, "It was you," he must
drop the handkerchief behind one of
the players, who picks It up and chases
him round the ring outside and under
the joined hands until he can touch
him with the handkerchief. As soon as
this happens tbe first player joins the
ring, while it is now the turn of tbe
second to "drop the handkerchief."
Roll the Ball.
Seat tbe children in a large circle. A
small circle tw,o feet in diameter is either
drawn in the center or laid out
with string. Bach child in turn tries
to roll the ball Into the center, and
some one keeps count of bow many are
successful. This emphasizes accuracy,
M?? J M A MMAMAA / I
carerui juagmeui o*. uuuui^c, vicvaMvu?
courtesy for others and kindness. The
arms and eyes are trained, and rhythm
can be introduced by rolling to music.
This game, "roll the ball," can be
varied by having the children stand
and throw the ball into the ring or into
a basket
Geographical Pnule.
In the following are to be found the
name of a continent the name of a
country in that continent and the name
of the capital of that country:
Utha Meri is a slim Austrian girl who
came to this country with her parents
about six months ago. A few days after
her arrival she was sent to school
and in three months was able to speak
English quite well and could read a
newspaper, using a dictionary, of
course, from time to time. Now she
can read almost anything, so Utha
Meri can certainly be called a prodigy.
Conira drams.
How do you punctuate a fire to make
it burn? Put a colon (coal on).
Why is a dictionary like a ballroom?
Because it is full of syllables (silly
belles).
Why is the letter D like a sailor?
Because it follows the G (sea).

But spiteful P said. "Pooh for Uf"

And, calling Q, L. E to help (pole).
He really tried to hit her.
Cried A: "Now, E and C, come here!
If both will aid a minute
Good P will Join In making peace,
Or else the mischiefs In it!"
And smiling E, the ready sprite.
Said, "Yes, and count me double."
This done, sweet peace shone o'er the
