IN THE PALMETTO STATE.
INTERESTING OCCURRENCES OF VARIOUS
KINDS IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
State News Boiled Down for Quick Reading
Pungent Paragraphs About Men
and Happenings.
The president has re-appointed
Geo. D. Shore as postmaster at Sumter,
Jno. R. Cochran at Anderson,
and J. F. Richardson at Greenville.
All these are white Republicans.
Clarence Henderson, a young white
man, has been arrested and is in jail
at Spartanburg, charged with arson.
He is charged with having set fire to
Karn nf R TTarlov. but the
evidence against him is purely circumstantial.
The Seaboard Air Line has purchased
thirty acres of land at Cayce,
just across the Congaree river from
Columbia, on which it is said they
will erect a round house and shops.
This will also be used as a freight
yard. The company paid $350 an
acre for the land.
A real estate company of Anderson
has purchased the old Williamston
Female college property? and
will make it a summer hotel for persons
seeking health and pleasure.
There is a fine mineral spring at
Williamston. The company has a
capital stock of $25,000.
Franklin J. Moses, who was known
as the robber governor of South
Carolina during the reconstruction
days, died at Winthrop, Mass., Tuesday
of this week. He was sixty years
i i i _ i j
old. ne was iouna aeaa in ms uea,
at his boarding house, he being asphyxiated
by gas from a stove used
to heat the room,
William Sphram, a white boy 15
years old, Committed suicide last
week at his father's home near Abbeville.
He was found in the pasture
with a bullet hole in his head and a
revolver by his side, and died soon
after being taken home, His family
knew of no reason why he should
have taken his life.
It is rumored in Charleston that
the Southern Railway will turn over
to the Seaboard Air Line Railway
its line from Columbia to Charleston,
thus giving the Seaboard an
entrance into Charleston. It is understood
that the Seaboard was preparing
to build a branch line from
near Camden to Charleston, it having
acquired some property in that city
recently.
Sumter is a unique city in many
respects, but the most recent improvement
there is the removing of
all signs from Main street and all
wooden awning frames. The city
council requires that all awnings
must be iron frames of a uniform
height, and no signs are allowed.
This movement was started by the
ladies of the civic league. All are
delighted at the improved appearance
of the street.
The tax levy for the city of Anderson
for next year is nineteen and onetenth
mills, and yet Anderson is one
of the most prosperous towns in the
State. You people of Bamberg, who
are only paying six mills and no license,
think on the difference. Of
course if you ^re afraid to spend
money, the growth of the town will
be retarded.

YEGGMEN TO BE TRIED.
Men in the Atlanta Penitentiary to
be Brought to Aiken.
Aiken, December 6.?William McKinley
and Dugan, the two yeggmen
who burglarized Mr. J. T. Shuler's
store at Montmorenci in 1902, and
who were convicted of other crimes
and sent to the Atlanta penitentiary,
will be brought back for trial at the
expiration of their sentence. It is
l-mrlorcfrknrl that warrants have been
sworn out for them and arrangements
are now being made for their
prosecution.
McKinley and Dugan were two of
the party of yeggmen who were
"working" South Carolina at that
time. They visited Mr. Shuler's
store, breaking into it with tools
taken from a blacksmith shop. They
blew open his safe with nitro-glycerifte.
The total value of their booty
from this escapade amounted to
nearly $1,000, including $500 cash
and all the stamps in the postoffice.
Clerk of Court Presented.
The grand jury of Colleton county,
at the recent term of court there,
presented Clerk of Court H. D. Padgett
for charging greater fees for recording
than is allowed by law. The
jury stated in their presentment that
the matter had been reported to
them and they had the clerk of court
before them to explain, but his explanation
was unsatisfactory, jo they
brought the matter before the court
for investigation. Judge Purdy told
the jury that the presentment was
too general, as it stated no actual
case or any witnesses, so the presentment
amounted to nothing. It is
likely that the grand jury will make
a specific case against the clerk.

COUNTRY NEWS LETTERS.
SOME INTERESTING HAPPENINGS
IN VARIOUS SECTIONS.
News Items Gathered All Around
the Coauty and Elsewhere.
Ehrhardt News.
Ehrhardt, December 10.?Mr.
and Mrs. Jacob Ehrhardt returned
from a trip to Newberry last Wednesday.
Spent Wednesday night with
Col. Jno. F. Folk and family and
drove out Thursday.
Wasn't the shower Thursday night
refreshing ? It settled the dust and
made traveling more pleasant.
Some farmers have had a hog killing,
and they would be glad to get
u ??4-i
some cuiu weauici, m uiuci tu luic
their meat.
We notice that most of our merchants
are not buying much Christmas
goods for their stock.
Mr. W. P. Pate, who has been
agent at Ehrhardt for the A. C. L.
Railway Co., has accepted a position
at Laurens. We all regret to see
him leave, but we are glad his wages
are nearly double what he was getting
here, and the responsibility lessened.
He is a good agent, prompt,
positive, and accommodating. He
will make friends in his new home,
as he has here, is our prediction.
Messrs. Sam W. Copeland, J. C.
Kinard, and G. B. Clayton have gone
to Oklahoma to look at their purchases
they made from an agent earlier
in the year. Hope they will
enjoy the trip.
Mr. E. P. Copeland, who has been
in Florida for some time, is spending
some time with his parents. He
thinks of staying until after Xmas.
Farmers are inquiring for cotton
seed meal, but seems as if the mills
are oversold and are reluctant about
giving them prices on their output
of meal. The up-country farmers
say their cotton seed are better than
any other fertilizer they can get, and
are not selling off their cotton seed
as usual.
The school girls are making their
arrangements so as to spend their
Xmas holidays at home with their
parents.
Mr. Barney Hiers is clerking for
C. Ehrhardt & Sons, and will be
pleased to serve his many friends
with the rare bargains they are giving
all of their customers.
The laborers are moving about
rapidly, hunting for the best places
and the easiest places. Someday they
want to go on the farm so they can
rest up. One thing they will find,
that supplies will not be as easy in
1907 as they were this year.
Mr. Ramsey has taken up the depot
agency at this place. Hope he will
be pleased with the job.
A short trestle was burned on the
railroad inside of the corporate limits
last Saturday night a week ago,
but it was found out in time to repair
the damage before the train came in.
Mr% I. D. Copeland will move to
town this week. Mrs. Moore, who
now occupies his dwelling, will move
down in Robertsville and occupy the
house recently vacated by Mr. Joe
Kinsey. Jee.
Carlisle Fitting School.
At the recent session of the South
Carolina Metodist conference, the
board of education made the following
report as to the work and condition
of the Carlisle Fitting School at
this place:
We are glad to report that the
Carlisle Fitting school is in good
working order. Our new headmaster,
W. S. Hogan, Jr., with his assistants,
W. r Roberts, J. C. Guilds,
Jr., and Mis* ena Walser, has the
work well in h. nd,'and the prospects
of the school are bright. Short crops
in that section have interfered materially
with the attendance this year.
- The enrollment for 1906-07 to date is
75. We have assurances that others
will enter at the beginning of the
second term.
The school property is worth $30,000.
The endowment of $5,000, a
gift from the late Gen. F. M. Bamberer.
is safelv invested, bringing in
an annual income of $500. All expenses
have been paid, and about
$500 surplus remained, which was
expended on improvements.
All things considered, the health of
the student body has been remarkably
good. Only one case of serious
sickness occurred during the past session.
Pure artesian water flows into
both dormitories, and is the only
water used for both drinking and
cooking purposes.
During the past summer all of the
buildings have been repaired and
renovated. Five hundred dollars
was expended on improvements. A
new artesian well has been bored
and electric lights have been installed
in all of the buildings and dormiItories.
In addition to the regular
studies, classes have been organized
in Greek and French.
The Cotton Market.
Tuesday the government estimate
of the cotton crop came out, which put
this year's crop at 12,546,000 bales.
This estimate caused the market to
rapidly decline, it going off sixty
points Tuesday. To-day (Wednesday)
the price being paid in Bamberg is
10? cents, and the receipts for this
week were about two hundred bales.
TRAGEDY AT SPARTANBURG.
Little Boy the Innocent Agent of a
Fearful Accident.
Spartanburg, December 6?What
will probably prove to be a triple
tragedy occurred this afternoon at
Cedar Springs, by the accidental discharge
of a shotgun in the hands of
Heintish Coggins, aged 8 years. His
twin sister, Hattie Lou, is dead, and
Heintish and a colored girl are fatally
wounded.
Lisco Coggins, the father of the
Coggins children, had just returned
from a hunting trip. He placed the
gun in his room and it was picked up
by young Coggins, who pointed the
gun at his sister. The gun went off
accidentally, the load entering the
body of the boy's twin sister, killing
her instantly. A colored girl, who
wets sumuiug xicoi, iccci vcu a wuu
of the load and may die at any moment.
When the gun was discharged
it recoiled, the butt striking the boy
in the head, inflicting a serious
wound.
Trip of Inspection.
Messrs. A. K. Sanders, of Sumter,
and Jno. G. Mobley, of Fairfield,
were in the city Monday. They are
members of the board of directors of
the State penitentiary, and were here
to inspect the county chain gang and
see how the convicts belonging to
the State are being treated. These
gentlemen say this is a mere matter
of form in Bamberg county, for the
convicts on our county gang are the
best treated of any in the State.
They were carried out to the chain
gang by Supervisor Bruce, the gang
now being in camp at the Simms
place below Midway.
Preacher at Mission Chapel.
Through the efforts of the congregation
of the Methodist church, a
preacher has been assigned by the
conference to the mission chapel
here. The minister sent is Rev. J.
C. Thomas, and he will arrive in the
next few weeks to take charge of the
work. The money to supply this
minister was raised by subscriptions
of $100 from the Woman's Home
Missionary Society, $50 from the Ep
worth League, and other pledges
which run tine amount up to $300 or
more, and the conference mission
board subscribed $200.. This work
at the chapel here has been* very
near to the heart of Rev. Peter
Stokes, and he has worked hard and
faithfully in order that the chapel
might be supplied. Mr. Thomas will
live here and devote his whole time
to the work.

Knights of Pythias.
At a regular meeting of Bamberg
Lodge, No. 38, Knights of Pythias,
held last Monday evening, the rank
of Esquire was conferred upon Mr.
M. M. Smoak.
In view of the fact that the next
regular meeting of the lodge is to
be held on Monday evening, the 24th
instant, which is Christmas eve, and
the probability being that there
would likely be a' small attendance,
it was thought best to elect officers
for the ensuing year at the last meeting.
The following officers were
elected:
? ? ? /i
J. F. Carter?cnancenor uomr

J. Aldrich Wyman?Vice Chancellor.
C. F. Ellzey?Prelate.

DEATH OF MRS. BRABHAM f
HRS. A. M. BRABHAM SUDDENLY
PASSES AWAY.
Her Death a Great Shock to the Community--The
End Came Yesterday
Morning. .
It was a great shock to the entire
town to learn early yesterday morning
that Mrs. Clio Cope Brabham,
wife of Mr. Angus McKay Brabham,
had passed away. It was not generally
known that she was ill, she
having been sick only a few days.
A decided change for the worse came
in her condition Tuesday night, and
the end came in a few hours, blood 4|S
poison having set in. Her death is
a terrible shock to us all. She was "jp
? 1 J T? 1 1 Z
Dom ana rearea m DamDer^, uewg
the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Jno. H. Cope. In April, 1905, she |
was married, and it seems hard that
one to whom life was just opening
up as it were, should go from among 1
those who loved her so well.
It was our privilege to know her ||
well, having lived in the same house
for two or three years, and the many
kindnesses and acts of love shown to f
us and our dear ones made her very
dear to us. She was almost idolized
by her parents, and the perfect com- - M
radeship existing between herself " M
and her father was beautiful.
A bride of less than two years, her i
body lies clad in her bridal robes
awaiting burial tomorrow?but her ||
pure soul has gone up to join the 1%|
redeemed, at the marriage supper of
the Lamb. ^
The burial will take place at the v/J|j
new cemetery tomorrow (Thursday)
morning, at eleven o'clock, and the ?31
services will be conducted by Rev.

Barnwell News.
(From The People.)
In his suit against the Southern
railway for damages for personal in- *
juries received at Denmark several ^
months ago, Dr. A. Bethune Patterson
received a verdict for $700.
Herbert E. Gyles, Esq., formerly
of Blackville, now a prominent Aiken '%
attorney, will marry on the 27th ?j|
instant, Miss Mattie, daughter of exmayor
John Staub, of Aiken.
Judge Gage, the lawyers and the
petit juries have proven that special -til
terms are luxuries rather than necessities.
During the three weeks\ipaM
ending on Saturday, in addition to 'M
the criminal cases disposed of, some } |g|
twenty civil cases were tried by the |
juries, and a number settled without ?f|
trial. The calendar is left in good tig
shape and like industry at the Spring -1|
term will clear it. Judge Gage went M
to his home Saturday afternoon to , 3
rest for a few days. He will hear
eauitv cases for several days this
week. |
Judge J. 0. Patterson left Sunday ||
afternoon for Washington, to be &
ready for the opening of congress on 'M
Monday. He will have another contest
