The convention sermon will be preached by the Rev. W. B. Oliver or the Rev. W. E. Wilkins. Klauber realizes the situation.

Our passenger trains continue to be late almost every day, and the delay is a source of great annoyance to our business men and the traveling public. We ought to get after the railroads and see if conditions cannot be bettered. Rev. J. B. Traywick, pastor of the Denmark Methodist church, preached in the Methodist church here last Sunday night. The church was lighted by electricity, this being the first service for which the lights were used. Fourteen clerks were kept busy Saturday supplying the eager buyers with the numerous bargains offered at Klauber's big sale. This is certainly the greatest merchandising event ever seen in Bamberg. Next Saturday is the last day. Last Thursday Chief Hand carried the navy deserter, Fisher, to Charleston, where he was turned over to the United States authorities. There was a reward of $50 offered for his capture, which w& paid to Poliecemen Hand and Dickinson. There was a typographical error in the advertisement of sale of land by J. A. Chassereau.

School was suspended at the graded school last Thursday and Friday on account of the furnace being out of fix.

Work has been stopped for three weeks on the new building for the Bamberg Banking Company because the contractor cannot get brick. The trouble is that the railroad does not furnish cars for ' shipment. After considerable trouble and correspondence, the bank officials have at last induced the railroad to furnish a car, and the brick will possibly be here this week. It will be the first of January before the building is ready for occupancy. Millinery. Dry Goods, Notions, Etc. I have bought out Mrs. M. L. Counts's millinery, and have moved same over to my store.

Will be pleased to have you call and inspect my goods, and will appreciate your patronage. Respectfully, J. A. SPANN. Bamberg, S. C., October 31,1906. Two Runaways. There were two runaways on Main street last Monday, which created a little excitement. Two mules were hitched to a wagon standirg in front of the Bamberg Furn iture and Hard ware Company. The wagon was being loaded with furniture when they dashed off up Main street at a lively gait, turning the corner at Copeland's store. There was no one in the wagon but a little negro boy, but he grabbed up the reins which were lying loose and swung manfully on. He succeeded in checking their speed somewhat and some one stopped them near the dispensary. No damage was done. Later in the day Mr. E. D. Felder'g horse hitched to a wagon was being * A * - ?1~ iUr. ?* O *?*ATn oil OTT hofWAPn driven mruugu wc uai * w n uaivjt ww ?r wv.. Burton Felder's store and Brickie's bicycle shop, when a cat jumped out and scared the horse. The wagon struck a post and he ran out on the street with only the shafts clinging to him. But he was not frightened much and was stopped without difficulty. Some damage was done to the wagon and harness. The Cotton Market. Cotton receipts continue very light on this market, and it seems that the crop in this section is about gathered and sold The staple is worth 10 5-16 cents the pound here to-day. Taken as directed, it becomes the greatest curative agent for relief of suffering humanity ever devised. Such is Hollister's Rocky Mountain Tea. 35c, tea oi tablets. H. F. Hoover. Ehrhardt News. Mr. Isaiah Rentz, of the Clear Pond section, who 'has been clerking for Messrs. C. Ehrhardt <fc Sons, died very suddenly last Friday evening at the home of Mr. Jacob Ehrhardt of hemorage. Mr. Rentz was taken sick at the breakfast table Friday morning, and he died at seven o'clock that night. Mr. Rentz had made many friends here during his stay in town, all of whom offer sympathy to the bereaved family. He was buried at Bethlehem Lutheran church by Ehrhardt Lodge, No. 98, K. of P., he having applied for admission into that order and received the first degree just a few days before he died. Mr. Eddie Bishop left last Tuesday for Columbia, where he will enter Draughn's business college. Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Copeland went to Bamberg last Monday. Mr. J. D. Jenny, of Jenny's, was in * ? ' 1 Ct_4. J town a snort time last oaiuruay. Capt. W. E. Sease, who has" been sick for some time, is now in town, drinking the artesian water here for his trouble. From the very first day he has been improving. That this water possesses mineral properties is shown by the analysis, and that it has curative properties, especially for kidney and bladder disorders, has been demonstrated more than once. The citizens of town don't appreciate this water as they should. Mr. T. D. Jones and family spent last Saturday and Sunday with Mr. F. P. Sease, of Ashton. Mr. and Mrs. John F. Loadholt, of Jenny's, spent last Sunday at the home of ' Mr. J. F. Copeland. Mrs. T. L. Belvin left last week to spend time with her daughter, Mrs. E. D. Grant, in Cheraw. Mr. and Mrs. J. W.
