He was a prominent citizen of that counMost of the outside work on the new jj?,V. Methodist church is completed, and the interior is now being finished up. The building has been wired for electric With the present good seasons in the Bp > .ground, it is a good time to push fall gardening. Very few people pay suffi|| cient attention to the growing of fall and winter vegetables. The information comes that all over * the State dispensers are now requiring purchasers of liquor to sign the request books. The wonder is that this feature of the law was ever disregarded. Mrs. William Willcock, mother of Rev. Frank Willcock, pastor of the Presbyterian church at this place, died at her home in Orangeburg last week. She leaves a husband and two children. It is believed by a great many people that dispensary affairs in Charleston are even more corrupt than in Spartanburg, p.:' and an investigation of the system in that city is looked forward to with great interest. Mr. J. L. Herndon oftheFarrell's Store section of this county, sold a bale of new p: - cotton at Branchville Wednesday of last p*'" week, August 9th. The bale weighed 530 ...? pounds, and the price received was 10 cents a pound. Mr. and Mrs. S. W. Pearlstin have ish, sued invitations to the marriage of their daughter, Miss Rosye, to Mr. M. I. Kraw!; chek. The ceremony will take place at their residence in this city to-day, Thursday, August 17th. The editor of the Herald regrets that V he could not be present at the annual reQ;? union of Company G at Bethesda last Thursday, but we had to go away on a & business trip last Wednesday night and spent Thursday out of town. Parties writing articles for this newsk paper are again reminded that it often ? * gives us a great deal of trouble to handle ||?i their "copy" when they write on both sides of the paper. Please remember to write only on one side of your paper. Mr. A. Kirsch and family have moved into one of the Fitting School cottages, lately vacated by Mr. M. Moye. Mr. "Willie Stokes and family will move into Mrs. Adams's residence on Railroad AveJU nue, which has been occnpiea by Mr. Kirsch. m Mr. Alf G. Hays was tried in Green~ wood this week for killing a negro in that town several months ago. He was acquitted, the jury only remaining in the |j; room a short time. This will be pleasant news to his many friends here, where he ~ ? was born and raised. Our paper is delayed somewhat this ...\ this week, but it is not the fanlt of this gr, office. Our supply of paper failed to arU, rive as usual on Wednesday morning. Spf*?' This happens every now and then, and this time we are going to see what's the f*matter with the express company. i As a result of the competitive examinaB&* tion held at the court house here a few weeks ago, Miss Linnie Riley has again been awarded a scholarship in Winthrop IW;'/-:- college from this county. Her average was high enough to entitle her to the Bp:. scholarship for the next three years, r . The examination of applicants for the vacant scholarship in the Citadel from this county is to be held at the court house here on Friday, September 1st There are four applicants: C. W. Rentz Jr., Jack Riley, Willie Cauthen, of Bam berg, and Ralph Goolsby, of Denmark. When you want your life or property insured, go to A. M. Brabham at C. R Brabham & Son's store. There is a strong sentiment here in fav or of the town erecting its own electric light plant. Bonds for the light plam alone can be issued now, and in a fev years our indebtedness will be reducec k> that we can erect a waterworks systen too. Municipal ownership is the thing and we only favored granting a franchise to private parties because the town coulc not issue bonds for both systems. But i: we are to have only the lights at present we favor the town owning the plant. A short time ago Rev. C. C. Brown ii the Baptist Courier gave an account of e preacher from South Carolina having ai experience on the negro question in Lon don, but none of us dreamed it was th< Rev. Thomas Jefferson Sandifer, of Bam berg. However, a friend of ours fron Florida sent lis the clipping which w< publish in another column in reference t< the affair. Mr. Sandifer's friends hen await with interest his relating of th< story when be gets back home, which wil be the first part of next month. ? ; k\ i- .

PUBLIC IS AROUSED. The public is aroused to a knowledge of the curative merits of that great meai1 cinal tonic, Electric Bitters, for sick stomach, liver and kidneys. Mary H. Walters, 546 St Clair Ave., Columbus, 0., writes: "For several months, I was given ' up to die. I had fever and ague, my nerves were wrecked; I could ngt sleep and my stomach was so weak, from useless doctors' drugs, that I could not eat. Soon after beginning to take Electric Bitters, I obtained relief, and in a short time I was entirely cured." Guaranteed at all druggists in Bamberg; Felder & Matthews, Denmark. Price 50c. Preacher Hnrl9 "Lie" at Blease. Newberry, Aug 15.?An unexpected sensational dispensary debatejtook place at Young's grove today, when Rev. C. M. Boyd, of Prosperity, outraged at statements made by C. L. Blease concerning the Christian church and ministry, protested eloquently. Following this and at the close of the speaking Blease was halted by the Rev. P. H. E. Derrick, who charged him with insulting and impugning the Christian ministry. On Blease's denial that he had made certain remarks in his speech Rev. Derrick threateningly and flatly contradicted him, renewing the accusation. Blease turned to walk away but before he had taken 20 steps Rev. Derrick shouted after him the words, "and if you deny it you are a liar." Mr. Blease took no notice of the words. While denouncing general hypocrisy and corruption in his speech, Mr. Blease said that if all the rascals were turned out of the churches there would not be a quorum left next Sunday, and that he had never known a preacher who would not take a gambler's money. 1 The whole affair created intense feeling. ; Mr. Jones also interrupted Mr. Blease to express his indignation. , Aside from the above incident the day i was without marked features. 1 All of the speakers acquitted them' selves well and were listened to with at! tention but at no time was there great: enthusiasm, r John C. Goggans presided, introducing Arthur Kibler as the first speaker. Dr. Geo. B. Cromer and A. C.Jones followed. ] Mr. Blease's speech followed, being the I onlyone on the dispensary side. After the j incident between Mr. Blease and Rev. I Boyd the crowd called for Mr. Boyd on the 1 platform. He responded eloquently for j prohibition. The crowd was estimated 1 at about 800.

Duncan, accompanied by Mrs. Duncan and their two children, little Watty, Jr., and Lala, spent several days in McCormick last week, and left Saturday for Donalds, where he was invited to assist in a series of meetings with the Rev. Peter Stokes, pastor in charge at that place. A friend says, "The people of Donalds, like we, all love him, as he ? ?

But when we remember his unbounded ability and his widespread popularity, which is so characteristic of him in all of his charges, this noble man of God knows nothing but to rise. We therefore could but yield to the Mighty Hand when the pioneer and faithful expounder of the truth was called to a larger field and greater work."?McCormick Messenger.

The death of hundreds of fine elm trees In the cities of Connecticut during the last five or ten years through neglect or unskillful care led to the creation of a new office by this year's legislature, says a Hartford dispatch to the New York Press. It Is that of tree warden. Each town In the state wifl have one, and he will be elected uu# nut ror U1? utwi unw. a pnsviuua act made optional with the selectmen of the towns to appoint such an official, but the new law makes his election compulsory. The tree warden may appoint as many deputies {is he sees fit and may remove them at his pleasure. The famous New Haven green was the example of lack ot care of the elms that induced the legislature to pass the bUL That once magnificent breathing spot which gave New Haven its famous sobriquet of the City of Elms Is now only half shaded. Tree aftsr tree lias fallen down, cracked branches bars been allowed to hang until the trunk was rotted Into, bugs and tree troubles of all kinds have Infected them undisturbed until the place is almost as unsightly as It once was beautiful. Dilatory In work that should have been dons years ago, the people of New Haven are just now awakening to a realisation of the terrible loss that the city has suffered. Tho same thing is true of a^.-zen cities and towns throughout Connecticut With rare foresight the forefathers laid out greens and parks In every village and planted them with elms and maples, Intending that they should be beauty spots for all time. And the aged elms stood so long and strongly that later generations came to believe that they were imperishable. The new law 3aya that the tree warden shall hare the care and control of ill public shade trees In the town, exrapt those in public parks or open places under the jurisdiction of park commissioners, and of these be shall take control if requested by the park commissioners. He shall expend all hinds appropriated for the setting out ind maintenance of trees, and may prescribe such regulations for the care ind preservation of such trees, enforced by fines not exceeding $20 in iny one case, as ho sees fit, and such rules and regulations, when approved by the selectmen, shall have the force ind effect of town laws. He shall snfbrce all laws for the preservation rf trees, provided that such laws do oot interfere with city or borough ordinances. 4 \ USE FOR OVERFLOW LAND For Ttlubk Hard wool FwwiU Along tho Ktoolaoipoft. Cne of the investigations with which he bureau of forestry has been engaged tecently is a study of the tree growth along the Mississippi river tam Cairo, IIL, to New Orleans, says i Washington dispatch to the Kansas Star. Bordering the river Is a itrtp of land about fifteen miles wide m either side, which is subject to repeated overflows; consequently a large proportion of the area is unavailable 'or agriculture. JPbUowtng the channel at & distance I ? .J . 11? 4 t willM roni III HI lll^liw Ul m iiiik: M/ mu uiuva !rom tow water ttne levees have been trected to control the stream. Between be levees and the river there can be x> question of cultivation because of he certainty of overflow. The opporunfty wtrfch the bureau, finds is this: On the narrow strip inside the levees uttonwood can be grown with almost u> care and harvested when the trees irt from thirty-five to forty years old. Behind the levees much of the land vffl undoubtedly be reclaimed for agiccltune, but until that shall be done he opportunity to maintain a forest >f valuable trees Is too good to be lost [n this forest white ash is tee most mpoct&nt species both because it pows more rapidly than oak and some >ther woods and because It Is In constant demand and can be used In small linen.
