Otyr Hamburg ffcralfc Thursday, Nov. 29th. 1906 Short Locals. The editor is too busy in the mechanical department this week to write editorials. Mr. H. M. Graham, real estate agent, adds some real estate to his list this week. See the ad. Mr. A. R. Besiuger brought us last week a mammoth winter cabbage. It measured fifty-three inches across. Next Monday is the first Monday in the month and salesday. Two tracts of real estate are to be sold by the Master. A petition in bankruptcy has been filed by R. Miller, a merchant of Ehrhardt. * E. T. LaFitte, Esq., represents Mr. Miller. If you want the city electric light plant to be a success you must use tbe iignts. The plant must have a revenue in order to run. Klauber has a half page ad. this week, which it will pay you to read. Note the prices he quotes ou desirable and seasonable goods. Work has again commenced on the Bamberg Banking Company's building, and the wiring for electric lights is also being done. Rev. Peter Stokes left Tuesday morning for conference in Columbia. This is his first year on this charge, and it is likely that he will be returned for another year. Two thousand dollars would lay a lot | of nice cement sidewalks on Main street. We can afford it. The money is in the city treasury, and council could spend it for no better purpose. The Ladies' Missionary Society of Georges Creek Baptist church will give an oyster supper at the Academy at Govan on Friday night, December 7th. The public is cordially invited to attend. The city now has charge of the electric light plant, or rather it is being operated by the force employed by the board of public works. The plant has not yet been accepted, as some work is yet to be done Remember to carry an offering for the orphans to the Methodist chnrch next Sunday morning. A special collection for the orphans will be taken. This is to be your Thanksgiving donation to the orphans. , John R. Bellinger, Esq., made a motion for bail foi Mr. D. Besinger before Judge Geo. W. Gage at Barnwell last Thursday. The judge granted bond in the sum of 1 fl,000 and Mr. Besinger was released from custody. Our people are not uping much electric I current. Although more than 1000 lights . are ready for use, less than five hundred are being burned at any one time. If you want the plant to be a success you ' must use the lights. The Knights of Pythias met a little : earlier last Monday evening, on account . of the performance at the opera house. Only routine business was transacted. ' The rank of Esquire is to be conferred at the next meeting. Rev. N. T. Bowen, who has been pastor i of the colored Methodist church here for 1 the past year, was moved by the recent Arvn ao t r\ \fooor?Anio /tkavrva in WUIVlVUVV vv ilAOVVUl/UlO 1U Orangeburg county. Rev. D- J. Sanders has been sent to the church here. Some few years ago the town council , appropriated $2,000 for good roads leading into town. This money was spent * on roads outside of the town. Surely * council can now spend a similar amount to improve the sidewalks of Main street. _ See Felder's line of candies. They are fine. We cordially welcome articles on our J poor telephone service. If our people c will just kick good and bard and refuse t to pay in advance, we will soon get better t service. We are entitled to it and we can [ get it if we will only tighten our purse strings. Mr. Paul M. Brice, for some years editor of the Columbia Record, died at his home in Winnsboro last Wednesday of cancer of the tongue. He was forty-two | years old and unmarried. Mr. Brice was a strong writer and will be missed by the newspaper fraternity. Mr. R. H. Cover, of Orangeburg, has | sold his interest in the Orangeburg a Patriot to Mr. J. H. Funderburg, his l partner, and will ruo a linotype machine 1 in the office of the Times and Democrat. He is now in New York learning to operate the machine. The ladies of the Baptist church will . serve a hot supper, and also have a booth J of fancy work and other articles for sale, 1 on Friday evening, December 7th. The t serving will take Dlace in the town hall. and all are invited to attend and to assist in this work for the benefit of Baptist parsonage. .j Go to N. B. Felder's for your sweets. I His line of candies is the best. | - On account of the pastor's absence at conference, no Thanksgiving service will be held Thursday, but there will be a special Thanksgiving service in the Methodist church Sunday morning. Address by Prof. T. C. Guilds. Let everybody come and bring a thank offering for the orphans. Some scoundrel stole a bicycle from in front of our office last Thursday evening, ( soon after dark. It was a Crescent model, new style, low frame, man's bicycle, with leather grips, rat trap pedals, and the enamel is off the frame in several places. A reward will be paid for its return or for information which * will lead to capture of the thief. Buy your fresh meats at N. B. Felder's. The Herald office has recently had more work than the force could handle. Everybody has been hustling day and night in tte attempt to keep customers satisfied. However, we will have another printer next week and can deliver * work promptly. Even the editor has f been forced to spend most of his time re- ^ cently in the mechanical department. < A lot of terra cotta pipe has been re- < ceived for the purpose of carrying off < the water from the roof of the Methodist < church. The water will be piped to the < ditch at the railroad, which will prevent \ the washing up of the sidewalks in front < of the church as well as keep water out < of the cellar. Now much of it soaks < through the ground and keeps the cellar < damp. Our shipment of paper was delayed again this week, and in consequence the Herald is issued one day late. We have just collected a claim for damages from the Southern Express Company for delay in the past, and it seems that we Vill have to get after the company again, for we must issue our paper on time. If the service does not improve, we will be forced to cut out the ready print pages. The graded school and Fitting School gave holiday this week for Thanksgiving Mr. Leroy Wilson, Jr., is now agent foi the C. & W. C. and the Southern Railway at Allendale. Remember the orphans next Sunday, and carry your donation to the service at the Methodist church. If you owe The Herald anything, come in and pay us if you are in town the first Monday. We are never too busy to write receipts. Everybody takes holiday Thanksgiving except the printers. This office was open all day, and the entire force was hard at work. Miss Martha Ayer Aldrich, daughter of Col. and Mrs. Robt. Aldrich, and Mr. F. G. Tompkins, of Columbia, will be married in the Episcopal church at Barnwell on Tuesday evening, December 11th. Mr. W. L. Stokes's family, with Mrs. xt a a m.vtrah tn T3ra n nhci 1 lp this ill. xi. a.uauio} ixx\j ? vu w jltamuvm..... week. Mr. J. C. Moye will occupy Mrs. Adams' residence, while Mr. W. G. Kirkland will move into the Fitting School cottage, which Mr. Moye vacates There is a desire on the part of the Methodists in the Olar section to form a new circuit composed of Salem and Mizpah churches and a new church to be built in Three Mile township, the parsonage to be located at Olar. The present conference may create the new charge Most of the stores in town were closed to day on account of Thanksgiving. Both banks and the dispensary were closed, while the post office and depot observed Sunday hours. Business was generally suspended, and few people came to town. There were no services at any of the churches. Numbers of people went hunting, and the birds fared badly. Coal is scarce and hard to get, and in consequence many cotton mills and other manufacturing enterprises are running on short time. The cotton mill here is having a hard time to get coal, and the supply of fuel at the power house is also short. The lights will only burn until 12:30 each night until a supply of coal is received. In Orangeburg the electric light plant is now running only half the nio-ht nn aonnnnt of coal. New Advertisements. W. R. Bishop?For Sale. R. C. Hardwick?For Rent. G. W. Beard, Jr.?For Sale.
