The city council of Columbia will require the Bell Telephone company to place its wires underground on the princinal Rtreets. Bambere's citv council should require the same thing here, so far as Main street is concerned. Now the j|\ telephone company has a line of poles on both sides of Main street, and as the street is very narrow, they are very much in the way. < Keep out the flies by using wire screens for your doors and windows. L. B. Fow| ler sells them. The editor of this paper has written j?v many letters and taken much interest in the depot matter, for we realized the harm being done the business interests of the town by having no freight warehouse. We regret that the commission was v | forced to take drastic action, but they should have done so earlier. However, if we get the right sort of huilding and % platforms and get it in sixty days, we will > be satisfied. I Swimming pool will be opened from the 3oth of May.

This means that the rail road must complete toe Duuaing oy me 25th of July. We are glad the order has been issued, and we presume the work will now be commenced and pushed.

Armstp.ong-Johnson-Brabham Co, At the recent meeting of the grand lodge Knights of Pythias, a committee consisting of J. J. McSwain, J. K. Willis, D. L. Smith, Jno. F. Folk, and Montague Triest was appointed to receive propositions from towns and cities in the State for the location of a Pythian orphanage. This rommittee will visit the various places who make offers for the orphanage and will report on the matter at the session of the grand lodge to be held in Anderson next May. Why can't Bamberg secure the location of the orphanage here? All institutions of this charactei are located in the up country at present, and it is time the low country was getting busy. What say our business men in regard to making a proposition for the orphanage? . !i' ;*.' * ? * ? Fitting School Commencement.

Rob Lawrence, Jr., Agnes Eloise McCants, Mary Agnes Murph, Mary DeBow Rich, George William Ulmer, Ella Havilla Kinsey, Lissie Viola Ulmer, Lou Ellen Utsey. The faculty this year consists of Hugo G. Sheridan, Headmaster, mathematics and science; W. D. Roberts, A. B., Latin and Greek ; Jno. G. Stabler, A. B., Eng lisli and history; Miss Lena Walser, music and elocution. Miss Bessie Yarn is matron of the girls' hall, and Mrs. Josephine Beach has charge of the boys' hall. The outlook of the school for another year is bright. Plans are on foot for improvements along all lines. And there is no reason why the Fitting School should not be one of the best of its kind in the State. All that's needed is energy and i push on the part of those who have it in charge. The health of the student body has been unusually good during this sesssion. There has been but few sick ones among the students. The school is indeed fortunate in securing the services of Mrs. Josephine Beach as matron of the boys' hall for another year. Mrs. Beach is not only a very efficient housekeeper, but her kindly disposition and excellent character make her a helpful friend to every student. Certainly no school in the State can boast a better matron. Depot to be Built. A few days ago a gentleman of this town saw Bailroad Commissioner Caughman on the train, and he asked as to the status of the depot matter. The gentlemen told him nothing had been done so * i ,j 1 XT iar as ne anew or couiu see, ?uu mi. Caughman asked him to see the Editor of The Herald, and to request that the editoi write him at once if nothing had been done towards starting the work. Wc promptly wrote him that work had not been commenced and that our people were very sore over the treatment thej were receiving.
