Shuck. \ .* It was a great shock to the people of this city to learn Tuesday night just after dark that Mr. J. S. Shuek had died suddenly at the home of his sonin-law, Mr. C. W. Rentz, in this city. Mr. Shuck suffered with heart failure, aid had been forced to give up active * work on this account. He was a newspaper man by profession, and had been connected with the Rome, Ga., Tribune, for several years, but a few months ago he suffered an attack of heart failure, and his wife and relatives persuaded to give up his work at Rome and come to Bamberg. He was sitting in a chair reading a newspaper when the fatal attack came and without making an ^ outcry he quietly passed away, almost - as quickly as he could be reached and s put upon the bed. The burial will take place this I (Wednesday) afternoon at 4:30 o'clock' at South-end Cemetery in this city. The honorary pall bearers are: J. A. Byrd, J. D Cope land, S. W. f Johnson, H. C. Folk, C.

Foster, pastor f 6f the Bamberg Baptist church, will conduct the services. Mr. Shuck had been a member of the Baptist church for many years, and held his membership in file church at Aiken, he having formerly lived there. i The deceased was sixty years old. t His father was the Rev. L. H. Shuck, | of Barnwell, a Baptist minister of r sainted memory, who was the first ' missionary to China, ard for fifty years labored and endured the hardships of a missionary's life in that : country. Mr. Shuck was born on I Hong Kong Island, while his father twas on his way to China. His mother died and was buried in China during - - ' " ' ^ T? _ I their residence in mat country, xveturning to Barnwell with his father, they afterwards moved to California, it seeming to be the delight of this missionary to go into new and hard f fields and prepare the way for the f' spreading of the gospel. His father died and was buried in Barnwell. While at the Citadel, a mere boy, Ithe war broke out, and Mr. Shuck entered the Confederate army from / that institution. In fact the school was broken up, for all the cadets entered the army and did valiant ser* vice. After the war he engaged in _r the newspaper business in Aiken, F . where he was the editor and . proprietor of a weekly paper. Afterwards he moved to Barnwell, where < he ran a paper for many years. Durjf ing his eventful life he had been [ connected with thirteen newspapers I in this State, Florida, Georgia and ? ' Alabama. He worked on. thp At-. < lanta Journal, the Constitution, the Columbus Enquirer-Sun, the Roihe Tribune and other Georgia newspa,pers. v [ Mr. Shuck married Miss Kitty Ingram, of Barnwell, and she with three daughters, survive him. Their > children are: Mrs. S. W. Jones, of Fitzgerald, Ga.; Mrs. J. C. Davis, of Neptune, Fla., and Mrs. C. W. Rentz, of this city. They have a number of grand-children. Mr. Shuck has worked in almost ! every department of the newspaper business. He was a strong and versatile writer, and his mind was a vast (storehouse of information on a va riety of subjects. He was a great reader, and kept posted on the leading questions of the day. The Cotton Market. Cotton is selling in Bamberg to-day fWpdnftsdavi for 10? cents the pound.

"Pembroke's Last Battle" Written By a South Carolinian. Two weeks ago the Herald published a story based on the fight at Rivers' bridge in this county near the close of the war. We said the story was no doubt written by a Northerner, and we thought it was. But it seems this statement was made through ignorance, and that the writer is a South Carolinian. We are glad to know it, and we take pleasure in reproducing the following article from the columns of the Winnsboro News and Herald, of which our good friend, J. Frank T7< 1 ? J.-i. r wsiie, is cuiuui . How true the old statement, a prophet is not without honor, save in his own country. Here comes the Bamberg Herald with fiour columns of its last issue, filled with a most interesting story, "Pembroke's Last Battle," based on the fight at Rivers' Bridge about the close of the war in that county. In noting this fact our esteemed contemporary adds: "As it was no doubt written by a Northerner, we feel sure our readers will read it with interest." Written by a Northerner (big "N" at that) and credited in the very beginning to E. Crayton McCants. If the authorship was not known and had to be guessed at, is there any more reason to guess that it was a Northerner than a Southerner? Surely this conclusion - could not/ be reached simply because it was copied from a Northern publication. Certainly not in this instance, for this is not the first time that the author's * 1 XT J_1 name nas appeared in a lNortnern magazine. Just for the Herald's information \Ve take pleasure in saying that E. Crayton McCants is no Northerner, no, not upon your boots, he is not. He is a South Carolinian, to the manor born, being a son of Greenwood county, and now superintendent of the city^chools of Anderson, where he had served as principal for several years before being elected to his present position. Amid the busy and exacting duties of the school room, he has found time to make a liberal use of his pen and his "Among the Red Hills" is one of the interesting books of South Carolina fiction. His magazine contributions have been numerous, and have been well received. No, he is not a Northerner, more than that, he began his magazine work when he was teaching right at the very doors of our contemporary, being principal of the school at Blackville. Now, Brother Knight, do the knightly act by making a full and free confession, and, instead of giv ing credit to another section for the authorship of this most excellent story, join in the good work of introducing the people of your county and your State to this bright young author, whose writings are becoming | more and more popular. Nor in the future be guilty of the unpardonable sin of giying credit to the North for an author, whose home is not known. If his writing is good enough for you to publish, why claim the credit for the South, for South Carolina if you please, till you find the credit belongs to some other State. Serious Affray in Anderson. Anderson, November 4r?The little town of Iva in the lower section of Anderson county was the scene of a fracas Saturday night, the result of which is that Wayman Zeigler, a young white man, is dying, and J. R. Martin and Wallace Whitworth, two white men, are in the Anderson jail to , await the result of Zeigler's wounds. This correspondent called at the jail to-day, and from Martin and Whitworth learned that five white men of Iva were -drinking together Saturday night, and that they fell out with.each other and began fighting. Some of the men evidently used razors, as Mart'n's arm is badly lacerated; and Whitworth also received some gashes. Zeigler was shot three or four times, one bullet piercing his stomach. nr. D. W. Hair Killed. Barnwell, Nov. 4.?Mr. D. W. Hair, one of the most prominent business men of this town, met with a violent death at his sawmill, a few miles from here, this afternoon. Mr. Hair was walking past the driving wheel of his engine when his foot slipped and he fell, striking the back of his head against one of the spokes in the rapidly revolving wheel. The force of the blow carried off the top of his head and killed him instantly. Mr. Hair was a young man 01 aDout 30 years, was progressive and a moving spirit for the advancement of his town. He was a member of the Baptist church and was also a member of the Barnwell lodge, Knights of Pythias. The funeral services will be held some time tomorrow. The editor can't find out everything.

C. Copeland's place near Mr. G. Frank Copeland's rpsiHpnnp vpstprdav afternoon. The contracting parties were Mr. Breland and Miss Kinard. The officiating clergyman was Rev. Counts. The marriage was to have come off at 3 o'clock, but it took them until near 5 o'clock to get ready. When the groom and bride came out the groom was on the left of the bride. This had to be changed. After this the Rev. Counts said he wanted to tell them a little anecdote before proceeding with the ceremony. He told the groom that over in Africa the groom was given a club, and he hit the woman three' times with same over the head. If she lived she was to take the same club and hit the man over the head three times, and if he lived they were man and wife. He said the difference in Africa and ? X ? /^A fViAIV iniS country wab, uit?re uicy wv uatu fighting before marriage, and here they do their fighting after marriage. He also told the groom that there was a habit among the colored folks that the husband goes to the store and buys two pairs of stockings or two pieces of calicc, or two pieces of bacon, having them done up in separate packages, bringing one to his wife, and taking the other to another woman. He told the groom that he did not want him to treat this woman so, but bring all to her. Then the Rev. Mr. Counts went on with the ceremony and married the couple, making them happy. A big supper was served to the guests present. They retired in good order, without any quarrel or fight. Jack Frost has put the farmers in this section to digging potatoes and stripping sugar cane.

Hood, a white man employed by the Southern railway on construction work between Gaffney and Blacksburg, was held up Tuesday night on his way to. Gaffney from Blacksburg by a negro named Wesley Wilkins, also an employee of the Southern railway. According to the account given here, Hood was held up at the point of a gun by the negro while he was walking through a deep and dark cut. He proved himself an equal to the, highwayman and his gun. The two men fought for a solid hour, the negro trying to wrench his gun arm free and pour in the hot lead, and Hood trying to beat him up 1 ;ui u:i? as mucn as possiuie wmic nc nciu gun out of reach. The two men beat each other so badly that they were completely exhausted from the loss of blood. Finally Mr, Hood knocked the negro down, or rather shook him off, and left him lying on the ground. He struggled and got a little distance from the place, but was so weak that he had to lay down by the way. While he was resting the negro came on him again, he too, having recuperated sufficiently to peregrinate on a small scale. Mr. Hood gave his guest a warm welcome, and for a second time they went at it tooth and claw, fightirig most desperately. Finally, they both sank down from mere exhaustion, and were found lying side by side when discovered a little later in the night. The negro Wilkins is under arrest and in jail at Gaffney. He did not succeed in robbing his man.?Spartanburg Herald. Corner Stone Laying. A postal card from Rev. J. B.

DEATH LAST SATURDAY. Charlie rioiVis Kills His Cousin, Levy Morris?flansum He Mil lan . Shoots Wm. Holman. : A most deplorable tragedy occur red in the Olar section of this county : last Saturday night, in which Levy Morris was shot and instantly killed I by his cousin, Charlie Morris. Both J are young white men, married, and t have families. r Magistrate W. B. Chitty, of Olar, 3 held an inquest over the dead body, 1 and from the testimony taken at the J Vioorinor it that, hnt.h the UVUiatg AV VIVT ViV^vvt _ men were drinking but that Charlie ? Morris was the drunker of th#' two. 3 They were at Levy Morris's house 1 and got into some dispute over a trivial matter, just as drunk men will, and got into a fisticuff. After some man present had attempted to separate them, they started out the . door, the dead man a little in advance, j and as they went out Charlie drew a pistol and shot Levy in the back, the 1 ball taking effect in the left side and 3 passing through the stomach. Only f one shot was fired* the weapon being s a 32 calibre pistol, and the bullet j caused death almost instantly. 3 Young Morris was arrested and r brought to jail Sunday, where he now \ is, awaiting trial. Whether the case J will be tried next week or not, we 1 are not informed, nor do we know whether he has employed counsel: It is said the sentiment in the Olar community, even among his relatives, \ is strong against him. 1 The two men were good trienas, 3 and the killing seems to have been ? the result of a drunken row. 5 Another killing occurred in the " same section some time Saturday, on 5 the plantation of Mr. M. N. Rice, ? but this seems to have been the rer suit of an accidental discharge of a shot gun. ?ome negroes were congregated together, chewing sugar j 'cane,. and one had a gun leaning up r against the house. As the owner of > the weapon turned around he knock ed the gun down and it was discharged, instantly killing a negro named [ William Holman. The negro who is under arrest is r named Man sum McMillan. Magistrate W. B. Chitty held the inquest over the body of Holman, ana the testimony taken seems to make it ? clearly an accident. Holman was 5 cook and house boy for Mr. Rice, *- - 1 A TTo i ' Deing auout ci^iiLccii jfcwo uiu. uv, j was a son of Dublin Holman, a nec gro who formerly lived in town, p McMillan is in Jail, being brought jj here Sunday. s Appreciate The Herald. We trust we may be pardoned for taking the following extracts from letters recently written us by sub scribers and advertisers: "The ad. ? certainly did me good. I look for ward to The Herald evefy week with e pleasure. Allow me to congratulate you on the nice paper you are getting i. out. It certainly is a good one." Another writes: "I am always glad to get The Herald, and appreciate reading it each week. I feel proud e of my home paper, and will send you f a geed ad. in a day or two." Both of these letters are from Bamg berg boys who,have good positions ? with large firms in Augusta and g Orangeburg. Another subscriber, who was born ^ and raised here, but who is now living 3 in the up-country, told us a few days ago how much he and his family apf preciated the paper. That they looked forward to receiving it every e Thursday, and felt lost if it did arrive promptly. We appreciate these y kind words, and we hope our income ^ ? - - . ^ will so increase that we may devote more time to editing The Herald and ~ getting up news, so that*we may make it a still better newspaper.

The recent annual meeting of the Woman's Home Mission Society was held at Manning, S. C., October 1720, and is said to be the very best yet had. In addition to 43 delegates, representing the auxiliaries, and the beloved State officers, it was .4 the delightful privilege of this conference to have present Miss Belle H. Bennett, of Nashville, Tenn., the a great leader of Home Missions of the Methodist Episcopal Churchy South, v\,.r rvlno 'linr* nroa in YV nvou tcnu^i pi^auiii5 vviv^ nw ui itself a source of inspiration, to say nothing of the never-ending supply of information which she so cheerfully dispensed to the conference. We wish that every Home Mission . worker might have had the privilege ' of knowing Miss Bennett and hearing her upon this great work?what .. ';y9 we have done, what we are doing? * S and the great needs. The delegates from the Bamberg auxiliary have a message from this great noble Christian woman to each member of this auxiliary, therefore, come to the next meeting anckreceive it. Mrs. Luke Johnson, of Athens, Ga.t superintendent of tithing, was pre^ ent, also, and spoke very forcibly the duties of auxiliary second vice* presidents. The State officers ?or another^year remain unchanged, with these exceptions: Mrs. R. W. Barber, former secretary, was elected to the office of first vice-president, to take the place of Mrs. W. T. Capers, who was removed by death. Miss Louise Bar- \ ber, of Lander, was elected secretary, to succeed her ffiother* Mrs. R. 1 T T ril l_. . . w. Earner, ana Mrs. j. l,. Moxes . . takes the place of second vice-president, instead of Mrs.' J. G. Clinkscales, who for good reasons re-' signed. It is with pride that we are 'Stable to make this statement?the * report of the Bamberg auxiliary was second to none, even with the report sent up from the societies in our largest city Ichurches. This compared most favorably, in many instances exceeding. Let us make next year's work better and greater > '. ';gBk yet, for we are well able to do it.

Prosperity, Nov. 4.?News has been received here that a few nights " ago John Bickleji, who runs a small p|j country store about 12 miles from here, near Piney Woods church, was nainf nllv wounded hv some one in the i-xMi dark. Bickley had been called out to .. " his store to sell two negroes some tobacco. After closing the store he 'heard a noise in his lot and started that way. Some one fired on him from behind, hitting him in the shoulders. Heat once made for his ..-j house and upon entering found his wife grappling with a negro man. He had her by the throat so that she could make no outcry. Upon Bickley's appearance he ran. Bickley is painfully hurt but not N _ seriously.
