Fire in Denmark.
The residence of Mrs. M. E. Koon,
near the business section of Denmark
was destroyed by fire last Thursday
morning about ten o'clock. The fire
originated in the kitchen portion of
the house, and was discovered by
Mr. Elijah Koon, son of Mrs. Koon.
Practically nothing was saved. The
loss on house and furniture is $2,000
or more, with insurance of $1,500.
An Exciting Chase.
There was quite an exciting time
in town last Saturday afternoon for
a short while. A negro named G. W.
Abel, who lives on Dr. F. F. Johnson's
plantation near town, had a row
with York Fleming and attempted to
shoot Fleming. This happened in
rear of J. A. Byrd's store. Abel did
not succeed in pulling his pistol, for
as he reached for it Policemen Moody
and Nevils were right on hand and
arrested him. He resisted vigorously,
and in the struggle lor his pistol,
Abel grabbed Mr. Mood's club and
threw it at him, striking the policeman
in the back. The negro then
ran, followed by the policemen and
a large crowd. He ran behind Dr.
Black's store and from there through
the lot of Black and Black, where he
was captured by Mr. R. L. Risher,
During the chase Mr. Moody shot at
Abel once, but did not hit him. When
again captured Abel resisted strongly
but a few taps from the policemen's
clubs quieted him and he was
locked up. Later he was released on
a bond of $100. He was tried Monday
afternoon and fined $70 or ninety
days. The fine was paid.
Abel has heretofore borne a good
reputation, and. we considered him
a good negro, and his trouble was
caused solely by liquor. Maybe he
will leave it alone hereafter. The
charges against him were serions,
and the fine was reasonable, all
things considered. There was a charge
ot' drunk and disorderly conduct and
fighting, as well as resisting an officer
and carrying concealed weapons.
His pistol was taken from him by the
officers.
Masonic Election.
At a regular meeting of Oman
lodge, A. F. M., held last Friday evening,
the following officers were elected
to serve for the ensuing year:
Dr. Robert Black?W. M.
G. E. Bamberg?S. W.
J. E. Felder?J. W.
M. E. Ayer?Treasurer.
Thos. Black?Secretary.
J. F. Carter?S. D.
L. B. Fowler?J. D.
C. A. Dean and R. M. Ervin?
Stewards.
D. W. Phillips?Tiler.
"Truth and Shams."
The lecture of Hon. Joseph G.
Camp at the Carlisle Fitting School,
last Saturday night was magnificent.
Mr. Camp won the attention of his
audience with the first word and held
it undividedly for about two hours.
The way he pictured "Truth and
Shams" to his audience?made up
largely of young people?was most
inspiring and will doubtless work
great good in the hearts of all who
heard.
Bazaar Next Week.
Don't forget the bazaar to be held
in the court house on the 17th and
18th?next Thursday and Friday.
This a cause in which each member
of Trinity Methodist church should
be deeply interested, and the ladies
in charge are confidently expecting
a contribution from each member of
the church. The departments are so
various and diversified that it is entirely
possible for each one to help
in one way or another"?anything
fuom a pocket handkerchief to a
horse and buggy will be acceptable.
Don't forget the dates?December
17 and 18?at the court house.
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE.
Our friends and customers

not allow votes. This is one of

HERALD BOOK STORE
Bleached Flour Unlawful.
Washington, December 9.?Secretary
Wilson, of the Department of
Agriculture, to-day announced his
decision in the bleached flour controversy,
holding that flour bleached
with nitrogen peroxide is an adulterated
product under the law and
that it cannot legally be sold in the
District of Columbia or in the territories,
or be transported in interstate
commerce.
Owing to the immense quantity of
bleached flour now on hand, Secretary
Wilson recommended no prosecution
of manufacturers or sellers
for a period of six months from this
date.

A Bold Robbery.
I
Last Wednesday night about twelve
o'clock one of the front show windows
of the store of the Simmons
| Hardware Company was broken into
and robbed of three double barrel
breech loading shotguns, the
value of which was fifty dollars.
The robbery happened about twelve
o'clock, and Policeman Moody and
Mr. N. S. Nevils were on the streets
at the time, which makes the robbery
a most bold one. Mrs. G. A. Ducker
heard the breaking of glass and on
1 she and Mr. Ducker getting up, they
j saw a man running up Main street.
Messrs. Moody and Nevils were at
the further end of the street, and
they were called at once, but the
thief had gotten a good start and got
safely away. There is absolutely no
clue so far.
The Civic Association.
The fourth regular meeting of the
Civic Association was held at the Fitting
Scho 1 chapel last Thursday afternoon
at four o'clock. Several new
members were present, and quite a
number of names of gentlemen as associate
members were given in. At
some time in the near future the
names of these gentlemen will be
published. Will your name be among
- * V 11J! J
those who iavor me upouuumg auu
progress of our town, or will you
leave the work to others, as you have
always done?
Several committees were heard
from and others appointed for the
next month's work. Mrs. Jno. H.
Cope, Mrs. G. F, Hair, and Mrs. W.
P. Jones were selected as the committee
to purchase the stand for the
receptacle of literature in the waiting
room at depot. Other committees
were appointed from whom we
hope to hear in the near future.
It was decided that the present
members of the Association shall give
a reception to the ladies of Bamberg
in the afternoon of the next monthly
meeting, which will be on the last
Thursday in December.
It was also decided to invite an
amateur club to give a play for the
benefit of the Association in the Carlisle
Fitting School Chapel some evening
during the holidays. Whether
they accept or not, and if they do, the
date of their coming will be givent
in the next week's issue of this paper.
This play is an unusually good one,
and we hope every man, woman, and
child in Bamberg will attend.

Death of Mr. J. J. Fogle.
Mr. J. J. Fogle, a prosperous and
prominent farmer of the Denmark
section, died last Thursday night, after
a short illness of pneumonia. The
burial took place Friday afternoon,
at Bethel church, in the same community.
Mr. Fogle was a hale and hearty
man, and was in Bamberg only a few
days before he was taken sick, and
the news of his sudden taking off
came as a great shock to his many
friends here. He was sick not quite
one week.
He was about forty-eight years old,
and leaves a wife and five children.
Mr. Fogle was well known and popular
all over the county. He served
two terms as county commissioner,
| and could have been re-elected, but
I he would not stand for the office. His
| death is a great loss to his family,
[ the community and county. His only
brother, Mr. Geo. J. Fogle, died onI
ly a short time ago.
j We are simply too busy to send out
' statements to subscribers, but we
hope they will remember us just the
same.
