Everything possible is being done for him by his physicians, and if his life can be saved they will do it. Every white man in Bamberg hopes that he will recover.

' Negro Drowned. A negro named George Carter was drowned Wednesday afternoon of last week in a shallow pool of water on a neighborhood road below Midway. It seems that the negro was drunk and was either thrown or fell off his mule into the water and was drowned. Carter had been assisting in driving some cows, and as there was considerable water to be waded,. the owner of the cows had given the negroes who helped him, some whiskey. Carter took all that was given him ? i 1 * i J ana asKea ior more, ana as a consequence when he started home he had to be helped on his mule. He rode off at a fast gallop and that was the last seen of him until his body was found in the water. The body was discovered Thursday morning, and Coroner Zeigler summoned a jury and held an inquest the same day. There were no marks of violence on the body, and a verdict was found that he came to his death by accidental drowning. Whiskey claims another victim. It is said that the water was not over ten or twelve inches deep, and yet he was so drunk he could not get out. Advice to mothers: Don't let your children waste away.

The lesson studied is always the one to be recited at Sunday-school the following Sunday, and the teachers of the different Sunday-schools will find these pupils ready to recite this lesson just as they recite their other lessons, with the book closed. Railroad Robbery. Mr. A. Shep Pearlstine, a well known traveling salesman, has complained to the railroad commission that he boarded a" Seaboard Air Line fast train at Denmark, intending to ?o to Fairfax, and was made to pay the same fare as if he had gone on to Savannah, when as a matter of fact the train stops regularly at Fairfax and he got off at that point. The ?xtra fare charged amounted to ?2.75. He wants this refunded. The question brought up by Mr. Pearlstine is decidedly interesting. . It is the contention of the railroad lompany that in order to keep their fast trains up to a fast schedule, :hey must discourage local traffic jpon these trains, and that only by following the practice which Mr. Pearlstine complains of can they present these fast interstate trains from :>eing crowded and delayed by local ;raffic. It is doubtful whether the railroad a 1 to _i commission can auuru xux. fconitine the relief he seeks, the train in question being an interstate train, however, the matter has been taken jp with the general passenger agent )f the Seaboard, and the commission vill do all it can to ascertain defilitely the rights of people wishing ;o use these trains for local travel.?
