something to have a piano man who

. proposition.
These pianos are among the oldest
r and best, sold to you direct from

to you. If you contemplate buying

Slow Train Story.
; , "Here's the latest slow train story,"
said a traveler. "A passenger on the
Blue Ridge railroad, which is not
noted for its annihilation of either
space or time, contended vigorously
when he reached his destination
against a looseness of laws which
would permit beggars to bother the
passengers. For miles and miles today,"
he continued, "the passengers
were almost driven frantic with annoyance
by a wooden-legged beggar,
who kept walking beside and around
the train, asking the passengers for
alms. It ought to be forbidden by
law."

A Quiet Marriage.
Miss Annie Wright, only daughter
of Mrs. Lizzie Wright, was married at
the residence of her mother in this
city last Sunday afternoon to Mr. J.
Courtney Ray. The marriage was
a very quiet one, only the immediate
family of the couple being present.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.
T. G. Herbert, pastor of trinity Methoodist
church. The bride was born
and reared in Bamberg, and is exceedingly
popular with old and
young. Her gracious manners and
fine character have endeared her to
a very large circle of friends, who
wish for her every joy and happiness.
The groom is a prosperous young
farmer of the Lees section. He is a
fine young man, and is well-known
and has a number of friends in
Bamberg, as he formerly attended
the Carlisle Fitting School. In common
with their many friends, The
Herald extends congratulations.
Denies the Charge.
Americus, Ga., July 28.?Judge C.
H. Crisp, son of the former speaker
of the House of Representatives, has
received a letter from William J.
Bryan with reference to the charge
that Bryan had failed to support
Crisp's father in the contest for
speaker of the House. Bryan says
that while he voted for Springer in
caucuses as he lived in Springer's
district and had promised to support
him, he had voted for Crisp when
the election was held in the House.
Says Bryan: Nothing but most
malignant enmity can account for the
circulation of the charge that I am
prejudiced against Southern Democrats.
Every Southern man with
whom I served in Congress is able
tn ormtrAdir.t. this. I have insisted
years ago that it does not matter
where a candidate comes from, but
what he stands for should determine
his selection.
Can't Seek Whiskey Orders.
Atlanta, Ga., July 31.?Judge Richard
B. Russell today in the Georgia
court of appeals, with the concurrence
of the entire court, rendered an opinion
to the effect that the solicitation
of orders by mail in another state for
whiskey or other intoxicating beverages
in the State of Georgia, as well
as in the State by any individual or
corporation, is a violation of the laws
of the State of Georgia, and any person
making such solicitation is guilty
of a crime against the State.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is only
one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an
inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafhess (caused by catarrh) that cannot
be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send
for circulars, free.

TRIED TO ABANDON BABY.
Heartless Negro Woman Arrested by
Rock Hill Police.
Rock Hill, July 31.?A heartless
and brutal attempt was made here
yesterday by a negro woman named
McFadden to abandon her month old
infant. The girl, whose mother is a
servant for Mr. Reid of this city,
came from Charlotte on an early
train carrying a month old baby in
her arms. Walking down the railroad
to White's pasture in the neigh
borhood or tne ice company s piani
she placed the baby in a clump of
grass and took her departure. Some
one saw the child and reported it to
the police. They at once thought of
the girl who got off the train with
the baby and proceeded to look her
up. It was a shrewd guess on the
part of the officers for the woman
had no child with her when found.
She denied knowing anything about
this or any other any child, but when
they told her she would be locked
up unless she found her child in a
hurry she gave in and proceeded to
where she had deserted her baby.
The baby was apparently none the
worse for the experience. When the
inhuman mother was found by the
officers she was singing as though as
happy as a lark and with a conscience
"void of offense." She is now on the
inside looking out.
FOUR NEGROES HANGED.
Quietly Taken From Jail and Hanged
to Famous Tree in Old Kentucky.
Russellville, Ky., Aug. 1.?The
bodies of four negroes swung from
the limbs of the "old Hanging Tree,"
when the sun rose this morning.
They had been taken from the Logan
county jail during the night and
lynched by a mob of 50 men.
The victims are:
Virgil Jones, Tom Jones, Robert
.Tones. Joe Rilev.
The cause of the lynching was the
murder of James Cunningham, a
white farmer, living near Allensville,
Ky., in Todd county, by Rufus
Browder, colored, a week ago.
Browder ambushed Cunningham because
he had been discharged;
Browder is in jail in Louisville for
safe keeping. The negroes who were
lynched belonged to a lodge, which
had passed resolutions endorsing the
move of Cunningham. For this four
were arrested on charges of conspiracy.
Last night a mob quietly entered
Russellville, went to the home of
Jailor Butte, covered him with guns,
secured the prisoners and hanged
them so quickly that the town did
not know of it until this morning.
Not a shot was fired. Two of the
negroes were in their night clothing.
Pinned to one was the following
note:
"Let this be a warning to you niggers
to let white people alone or you
will jgo the same way. You lodgers
had better shut up or be quiet."
Letter to J. A. Spann, Bamberg, S. C.
Dear Sir: A man fed his hens
half meal and half sawdust; he
thought they wouldn't know the difference.
He concluded they did
when the eggs hatched woodpeckers.
Another man painted his house

the difference?not till he paid the
painter.
He had twenty gallons to pay-for,
20 instead of 10. Got fooled $12.50
on the paint.
He had 20 da^s' wages to pay-for,
20 instead of 10. Fooled $30 in wages.
He got a poor job besides. He
paid too much for his eggs, and they
hatched woodpeckers.

Father Leading Posse.
Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 1.?Word
has been received that William Douglas,
white, aged 23 years, who is
charged with having assaulted Helen
Duncan, aged 13 years, at the Duncan
summer home, north of Indianapolis,
has been surrounded in the
woods on Whitet river near here and
a'squad of detectives has gone to the
scene in automobiles. The man is
hemmed in by a posse of farmers
headed by the father of the girl. It
is feared violence may be dealt to
Douglas if the officers are not on
hand when the capture is made.
The assault on the Duncan child
was bold, as the assailant saw the
child's mother not a hundred yards
away when he grabbed the child and
dragged her into the woods.

Getting; Ahead) f?
The problem of getting ahead in this life is a matter of shav- r ing
and saving. You must shave your expenditures until I
they are less than your income, then save the difference by
putting it into t;he bank. Or in other words, put a part of
your income mto the bank regularly and live on the remainder.
You do not have to sacrifice the comforts of living in
order to save a little out of your income. It's the idea of
saving a little and saving it with system. A bank account
helps you to save regularly. Open an account with.... I
