The newest and neatest thing in a picture frame is the Collins framelet. Only 5c. at the Herald Book Store, and they are all ready to put in the picture. Many cooks and washerwomen have jumped their employers here since the cotton picking season began, and there is much inconvenience caused among housekeepers. They say "K." Brabham is doing well with his insurance companies. Well, that r is because he has such good companies and is always ready and willing to serve you. Mr. Sharp, 'representing Fairbanks. , Morse gasoline engines, was in the city I. Monday and Tuesday. He sold Mr. J. F. " Jones a 12-horse power gas engine to run his ginnery.

Remember every dollar counts. The Methodist church will be open next Sunday morning and evening. Rev. Marion Dargan, presiding elder, will preach Sunday night, and will hold the 1 third quarterly conference Monday morn- , ing. There was no preaching at the Metho- ' v > dist church last Sunday, as Rev. Waddy T. Duncan was not yet well enough to preach. He was sick while away, and has ] not entirely recovered. Mrs. Duncan has - also been sick. : Mr. G. Moye Dickinson, this week S^v bought the Bischoff plantation, situated just out of town on the Charleston and Augusta road. The place contains 400 ' acres, and we understand the purchase price was $4,000. Farmers and ginners would do well to note the deduction to be made by buyers here on cotton when bales are covered -with more than six yards. Our buyers s Tegret to do this, but they are forced to do so on account of the action of theexportgp|' ere. Bfe;. Mr. J. Norman Walker, who has been at the hospital in Augusta for some weeks |i ;y has improved very much and has been moved to his home at Appleton. It will be remembered that he was operated on for appendicitis while in Greenville some * ime ago. Cotton picking has been progessingrap'idly in this sectiou, and the gins have pr 'been overrun. Many plants are running day and night, and yet they cannot keep np with the cotton. Some times one has to wait all dav to get a bale ginned, and Iyi*; often jou arelucky to do this well. j||p; Miss Ethel Gyles and Mr. T. W. Thompson were married at the home of the bride's father in Blackville on Wednes v\ day, August 30th. The bride is a daughter of Mr. C. E. Gyles, and is well known and has many friends in Bamberg. The couple will make their home in Charleston. The Herald Book Store has just re^ . ceived the prettiest line of fine correspondence papers ever shown in Bamberg. We have it by the box, quire, or pound. A full line of general stationery just in. We can supply your wants in stationery, office supplies* etc., but we do not handle school books. The drummers of Augusta have taken up the matter of getting the early train % into that city from Bamberg, and Harry Calhouh has gone to work at it in earnest. Of course this means that we will get the train, which will be a great convenience to our people* and the traveling public in this territory. C While taking out insurance, why not get the best? A. M. Brabham has nothing but the best life aud lire companies, and is always ready to serve you. Mr. S. K. Carter brought' into our office Monday the largest pod of red pepper we ever saw. It is a curiosity, and can be seen at The Herald office. Mr. Carter raises pepper in pots, and it bears until hard, freezing weather. He also brought us a boll of cotton which had twelve locks in it. The usual number is four. Nice line Of silks, latest styles, at W. D. Rhoad's. Tom Tyler, a negro, got into a quarrel with his wife last Saturday afternoon up near the depot and drew a pistol and threatened to shoot her. He did not do * J ?- olrmno/^ Allt any uauuagc, uu?ciu, auu w.. before the police could arrest him. He has so far evaded capture, but the officers ;'v' expect to land him behind the bars in a few days. We return thanks to Mr. David Graham Copeland, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Copeland, of this city, for an invitation to attend a naval ball, to be given by the South Carolina Midshipmen of the United States Military Academy, at the St. John hotel,Charleston, on Wednesday evening, September 20th. Mr. Copeland is one of the committee. He will graduate at Annapolis next year. Just received, my fall stock of those famous Queen Quality shoes for ladies, at W. D. Rhoad's.

Mr. Sandifer has just returned from a meeting of the Baptist World's Conference at London, England. While away he took the opportunity to visit France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland and Scotland, and gives wonderful accounts of the places he visited.?Press and Standard. H'* # es A full line of caps, from 10c to $1.00, at W. D. Rhoad's. The graded school will commenc exer- . cises tomorrow, Friday, the loth, and .the Fitting School opens next Wednesday, the 20th.

Few realize that every case of bottles costs us $1.50. We put 2? cents in a bottle that costs us five cents. We cannot afford to lose them. Neither can you! We are obliged to keep account of all shortages and charge careless clerks with what they lose. We call attention to this for the benefit of those who do not J realize the cost.

Give him a chance to estimate on your work. Vaccination. The Bamberg graded school is to commence exercises tomorrow (Friday) morning, and we hope and trust that no a child will be allowed to enter who has a not been successfully vaccinated. There p is much danger of small pox appearing a here again during the coming winter,and a it is too great a risk. The board of trustees should adopt this rule and enforce it strictly. In fact, everybody, old and young, should be vaccinated, for that is the only way to prevent small pox. The few cases here last winter cost the town hundreds of dollars, and we should not have to go through this experience again. The Cotton Market. Receipts of cotton at this market con tinue heavy. More than 1,600 hales were received this week, and the price today is ten cents. p Fire Protection. n The merchants of Bamberg, or at least d some of them, are very much interested in 0 the matter of fire protection, and the suggestion of The Herald last week that waterworks for Main street alone be put in has met with hearty favor. No doubt something will be done about the matter in a very short time, and we sincerely hope so. Bamberg Graded School. 2 The Bamberg graded school will open Friday, September loth. There was an ^ oversight in the list of eight grade books. Geography was omitted. Tarr's New Physical Geography will be used. ^ Pupils will assemble in chapel at nine o'clock instead of going to individual f class rooms as is customary. Another Candidate. G. A. 'Jennings wants his friends to know that he is again with H. C. Folk, ^ where he once served you, for eleven years. Come and see him and save money; he is a candidate for your trade. Carlisle Fitting School. The fall session of the Carlisle Fitting School opens at 11 o'clock "Wednesday morning, September 20th. We wish to say to the friends iu town who will send us their boys and girls that your children will have our personal attention, and every proper assistance will be given them in their school work and school life. During study hours, all the teachers will be available to the students in town as well as those from a distance. A reduction of ten per cent is allowed when two students attend from the same home. Music per month of ten lessons (40 minutes each) $3.00. * H. G. Sheridan, ( Head Master. - 1 Fight at the Oil Mill. t Last Saturday afternoon a difficulty oc- r curred at the oil mill between Mr. George c Bessinger and a negro named Watt Nel- i son.' The trouble grew out of their both j having wagons loaded with cotton at the oil mill ginnery. Mr. Bessinger stabbed 1 the negro twice, once in the right side and once in the arm. He is not seriously hurt. They were both arrested and Mayor Dickinson, who witnessed the difficulty, heard the case Monday morning. Mr. Bessinger was fined five dollars, which was paid, and the negro was discharged. It seems that the negro had put his team in the way of Mr. Bessinger's and grew impudent when requested to move. Cotton at 11 Cents. The Southern Cotton association held I its session in Asheville, N. C., on Thursday and Friday. A resolution was adopted calling on the farmers to hold their cotton for 11 cents. A resolution was adopted looking to carrying out the association's aims, and to raise funds for the purpose?$100,000 for the national association and $100,000 for each State and county association. E. D. Smith, of this State, was elected field agent for this purpose. An assessment of three cents on each bale of cotton raised by members of the association will go to this object, and the membership fee n-oc r>h?ncrprl from 25 rants to $1 a vear. T?WW ?
