Lyceum Course. j
Messrs. E. Paul Allen and P. B. I
Murphy are endeavoring to get up a I
lycenm course for Bamberg this win-1
ter, and as there will be no amuse-I
ment of any kind here during thel
winter months, it is to be hoped they I
will succeed. The attractions they J
will get are high-class including thel
Royal Hungarian orchestra and other
musical companies. The lyceum I
courses heretofore have been a source I
of much pleasure to our citizens, and I
it would seem that in view of there j
being nothing on foot in the way of J
public entertainment, that little diffi-1
culty would be met in securing I
enough subscribers tor season tick-1
ets to make the lyceum a certainty. I

Killed at Hot Supper.
Israel Holman was shot at a hot
supper on Mr. J. C. Matthew's place
jnst across the Bamberg county line
on last Saturday night by Rush
Dukes. Holman was shot by mistake.
It seems that Dukes had
bought some fish and bread and that
nnnthpp npcro re&r.hine over took a
part of It. This angered Dukes, and
taking a stand behind a tree he shot
the one he supposed had wronged
| him, but which proved to be the
j wrong man. Dukes was arrested
