The sale of lots here last Friday
was largely attended by the colored

at good prices. Rev. Richard Carroll, '

There are several big plugs of tobacco
sold in Bamberg for 10c, but

The Bamberg Herald's job printing
department has just finished
printing the largest brief for the
Supreme Court ever printed in this
part of the country. It contains 340
pages of printed matter, and handling
a job of this size is impossible to a
country office without a linotype. The
brief was printed for Hon. S. G. Mayfield,
in the case of Still et al vs.
Wood et ai, an appealed case irom
Barnwell county.
Just received at Klauber's, twentyfive
sample coat suits. They were
bought at a big discount, and will
be sold accordingly. You had better
hurry.
The cotton mill here is running on
short time for the present, being
closed down Friday and Saturday of
each week. It is understood that
this is only temporary, and that the
mill will run on full time as soon as
some necessary repairs are made.
This arrangement plays the mischief
with The Herald, as we have to run
our linotype Thursday, Friday, and
Saturday nights in order to make up
for the loss of Thursday and Friday.

We therefore had to get out

from the city plant at night.

Negro Gamblers Arrested.
Monday night of this week policeman
C. C. Rowell went out in Varnville
to the house of L. B. Davis, and
rounded up a gang of nine negroes
who were gambling. The parties
arrested were: Moses Frederick,
Willie Frederick, Willie Jones, Elliott
Jones, Hobsie Wright, Boisie Pinckney,
Joe Whitmore, Philip Price, and
L. B. Davis. They were all put in
the guard house, but were soon released
on bond. They were tried before
Mayor Wyman Tuesday morning.
All plead guilty, and were let
off with a fine of $5 each. All paid
up, and the city council treasury is
$45 better off.
Marriage Near Ehrhardt.
Mr. R. F. McMillan, of Bamberg,
and Miss Jassie McMillan, of Ehrhardt,
were quietly married at the
home of the bride's parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Jasper McMillan, Wednesday
afternoon at 3.30 o'clock.
The bride wore a soft white gown
trimmed with "baby Irish," and
had rose buds in her hair. After
Monday Mr. and Mrs. McMillan will
be at home to their friends at the
home of Mrs. Beach, Carlisle and Elm
streets, Bamberg, S. C.
A GUEST.
Buys Home in Spartanburg.
Mr. John H. Cope, president of the
Bamberg cotton mills, and one of the
most prominent and progressive citizens
of Bamberg, has bought a handsome
home in Spartanburg, and his
family will move there next week.
However, Mr. Cope himself will remain
here for a year or so longer and
devote his time to his interests in and
near this city. That he will eventually
move to SDartanburg is deeply
regretted by his many friends here,
for no citizen of the town is more
popular or patriotic and progressive
than Mr. Cope. He is one of our
leading men in business and church
circles, and his removal from Bamberg
will be a distinct loss to this
community.
Hurt at Oil Mill.
Kelly Williams, a negro, had a narrow
escape from death while at work
at the oil mill Monday morning of
this week, and as it was he was painfully
hurt. The heater had become
somewhat choked, and Williams took
an iron rod to unchoke it, and the
mixing knives of the heater struck
the rod when he pushed it in too far,
causing the rod to strike him on the
side of the head and knock him off a
block he was standing on and against
an iron column. His jaw bone was
broken by the blow and several of
his teeth knocked out, and he was
also cut on the head. He is getting
along all right. His wounds are the
result of his own carelessness, and no
doubt he will be more careful next
time.

Cotton is selling in Bamberg today
(Thursday) at 13*4 cents the
pound. The market seems strong at
this price, and many people are beginning
to expect cotton to go to fifteen
cents. The receipts continue
heavy here.

Obituary.
In loving remembrance of our dearly
beloved one, Jane S. Counts, wife
1 of T. J. Counts, and mother of D. H.
Counts and Jane S. Saunders, departed
this life October 16th, 1905,
four years ago, at the age of 73 years.
"Farewell, dear loved one, farewell,
Peaceful be thy silent rest,
. Slumber sweetly, God knew best
When to call thee home to rest.
"Call not back the dear departed.
Anchored safe where storms are o'er,
On the border land we left her.
Soon to meet and part no more.
i
"Far beyond this world of changes,
Far beyond this world of care,
We shall find our missing loved one,
In our father's mansion fair."
Husband, Son and Daughter.
> "Best of the Bunch."
A few days ago we received a let1
ter from our friend, Mr. A. J. Eaves,
an old Bamberg boy, but who is now
living in Pittsburg, where he is manager
of the Postal Telegraph-Cable
Company, and in this letter he says
' of The Herald:
"A good many country papers from
different parts of the United States
find their way into this office and are
read by a good many persons. The
Herald is conceded to be the best of
i the bunch. A Pittsburgher here in
the office looks forward to The Herald
every week with as much interest
as I do. After reading it, he invariably
says, 'Why did you leave
that country?' I wish you continued
success."

This Store is the
Shower to Bride.
One of the most delightful social
affairs of the season was given on
Monday afternoon by Mrs. G. Moye
Dickinson when she entertained with
a linen shower, complimentary to her
sister, Miss Sadie Johnson.
After being greeted by the hostess
at the door, the guests were served
delicious fruit punch in the hall by
Mesdames Klauber and Hoover.
As each group of ladies arrived their
attention was drawn to an adjoining
room/ by the repeated superlatives
and exclamations of delight, they determined
to investigate, entered and
joined their voices to the admiring
throng. Here soon all were collected
and the many exquisite pieces of
hand-made linen were exhibited,
after which all repaired to the sitting
room and entered with great zeal
' 1 - - ?? ? ? ffiiaooinor crcj m P
into a gcugiapuiMi & us-sointj quu...
So many were successful until it was
found necessary to cut for the prize,
a handsome cut glass dish, which
finally fell to Miss Mozelle Copeland
and which she gracefully presented
to the fair honoree.
A most delightful salad course,
followed by cake and cream, was
served by Misses Lalla Byrd, Julien
Easterlin, Kate Rentz, and Mozelle
Copeland.
The guests present were: Mesdames
J. D. Copeland, C. J. S. Brooker,
H. W. Johnson, J. C. Moye, J. W.

Quiet Marriage.
A quiet but pretty wedding took
place at the Johnson Hotel in this
city Tuesday morning of this week,
when Miss Sadie Johnson became the
bride of Mr. L. A. Trent, of Leakville,
N. C. Rev. T. G. Herbert, pastor
of Trinity Methodist church, was
the officiating minister. As stated
the marriage was a very quiet one,
only the immediate relatives of the
bride being present. Mr. and Mrs.
Trent left on the 9:30 train, soon
after the ceremony, for Leakville, N.
C., the home of the groom.
The bride is the youngest daughter
of the late S. W. Johnson, and is
a young woman who has always
been extremely popular among a
large circle of friends, in this, the
home of her birth, who regret very
much that she is to make her tuture
home elsewhere than in Bamberg.
The groom is a prominent business
man of his town, being book-keeper
for a wholesale grocery firm. The
Herald extends congratulations to
this young couple who starts life so
auspiciously.
Lisbon Irons, a negro, was arrested
last Saturday, the charge being drunk
and disorderly and cursing on the
streets. He gave bond of $10, which
he forfeited, not appearing for trial.

The prisoners were brought here
last night by Sheriff Hancock, after
the coroner's jury at Newport had returned
a verdict that Mayor Newberry's
death* resulted from gunshot
wounds inflicted by S. J. Sanders and
that his brother was also implicated
in the shooting.
The assassination of Mayor Newberry
was the direct outcome, it is
said, of the prosecution of "blind tiger"
cases. Great excitement prevailed
in Newport after the tragedy occurred.
The dead man's wife was ill
in bed at the time of the murder and
his little daughter stood by his side
when he was shot.
Convicted of Safecracking.
Bennettsville, Oct. 18.?Thomas F.
Lacey, alias "Newark Tony," to-day
was convicted of housebreaking, larceny
and safe-blowing and sentenced
to twelije years in the Sate penitentiary.
Lacey, who is one of the most
expert cracksmen in the country, was
convicted on the charge of blowing
the safes in the E. N. Covington
Company's store and the Atlantic
Coast Line depot at McColl in 1904.
Lacey had recently completed a fiveyear
sentence in the Federal prison
in Atlanta for robbing the postoffice
at McColl.
