See that you have been enumerated a;
by the census enumerator. Bamberg 40
wants everybody on the census list. Sl]
j It is too important a matter to be be
neglected, so if you have reason to
think the enumerator has not gotten
you on his list, let The Herald know
P* and we will see that you are properly dc

Panic at a Circus.
pi
New York, May 16.?A mistaken kl
#cry of "the lion's loose" threw a cir?eus
crowd of women and children into
a frenzy of panic at Newark, N. J., ^
Vi ... this afternoon, and in the pell mell
rush seven -children were badly __
crushed and cut, one man fell in a
fit, a woman had her shoulder dis- W(
located and many other persons suf- d(
fered minor injuries. One little girl lo
lad her jaw Done DroKen.
The panic occurred outside the cir- w
cus tent during the parade. Because n(
of the size of the circus?one of the
largest in the country?the streets ca
were packed with sight-seers. Suddenly
the band struck up. A mounted A
policeman's horse took fright and ai
bolted straight for the thick of the y(
crowd. Before he could get it under u]
control, somebody shouted, "a lion's
loose," and the crowd went mad with
fright. fc
Adults and children rushed for the
nearest point of safety, upsetting tl
baby carriages and trampling upon
the babies in their charge. Some al
jumped into front yards, and a near- ir
by grocer's shop was wrecked. The
windows were broken, the couhters m
overturned and the floor covered with tl
o spoiled goods. a:

TO HELP COAST COUNTIES.
?2r ?^
Ixpert Agricultural Workers Plan
Campaign for Drainage.
\
Columbia, May 13.?As a result of
be recent conference at Clemson of
be expert agricultural workers of
he State, a systematic campaign to
romote the drainage of the coast
ounties of the State is to be inugurated
on the 23rd of this-inonth
nd kept up vigorously until definite
ractical results are reached in all
tie counties on the coast.
The Clemson faculty, the various
"ederal agricultural workers, Comlissioner
Watson's department and
tie high schools in that section will
11 concentrate their energies in this
irection and now that some practial
results have already been obtaini
at several points in that section the
armers will enthusiastically co-operte
in the campaign, m
Drainage work in Horry, Georgeiwn
and Hampton counties being aleady
well under way through farm
emonstration work in those counts
and the Charleston drainage
ammission having already accomlished
effective work in Charleston
Dunty, the points of attack will be
rst in Orangeburg and Dorchester
aunties. The first meetings of exerts
with the farmers will be at Jederg,
on May 23, where Clemson two
ears ago established an experiment
:ation with a view to working on
rainage principally. The Bowman
igh school has accomplished good
?sults in that section and the neighoring
farmers are taking interest in
le work.
The next day the experts will ride
rer the Columbia and new Charles>n
highway to Branchville where the
sdburg performance will be repeat1
except that there will be no agrilltnrnl
hi^h sobnnl students t'o ad
ress there.
The campaigners will th^n take a
>st until the second week in June
hen a big drainage, mass meeting
: experts and farmers will be held
; Jedburg. It is the purpose of the
impaigners thrbughout the work to
duce local brickmakers to go in for
te manufacture of tile for drainage
lrposes. This form of draining
ill be demonstrated at all points,
[ready in two counties pipes are beg
made at brickyards with great
iccess. Heretofore all this had to
i gotten in other States.

What a Daughter Can Do.
There is so much a daughter can
for her mother that it is hard to ;
low where to begin.
Suppose we start' with how she can
dp with the house-work and <kre of
e younger children.
For years the mother has had the 1
tire charge of both, and it is time
e was relieved:
Patiently and uncomplaininly she '
,s drudged along with no thoughts 1
it for her children's welfare and
mfort. 1
It should be the daughter's joy, as
ill as duty, to bring a little recrea>n
and pleasure into her mother's !
e. A
Remember, girls, that all your lives 1
ur mothers have been sacrificing
emselves for you.
. - ^ 11
jnow you nave a cnance iv revers*;
ings.
Your shoulders are young and
rong; help lift the burden a little '
Dm the tired shoulders that have '
]
rne it so long. 1
Let her see that you appreciate all
at she has done for you. .
Take the heaviest part <Jf her 1
>ues-work off her hands.
Make her stay in bed in the morng
while you get the breakfast. (
Send her out to enjoy herself while
u look aftdr the children.
Of course, you cannot do this every (
,y, but you can do your share of it.
If you are a business woman, you
nnot do much of this sort of thing,
it there are many little pleasures
>u can give her.
Something pretty to wear will
ease her. She is a woman, you
iow, and likes pretty things as well
you do.
Confide in her and tell her your
>pes and ambitions. She is better
an all the girl friends in the world,
id will never tell your secrets.
The trouble about mothers is that
e get so used to them that we
>n't half appreciate them until .we
se them.
Then quickly enough we realise
h^t all that' divine care and tenderjss
meant. x
No matter how much you do, you
tn't begin to return all they have
>ne for you, but do the best you can.
little love and petting is always
ipreciated by mothers; try itywith
mrs and see if she does not thrive
ader it.
As for the girls wno taiK anu act,
^respectfully toward their mothers,
>r them no criticism is too harsh. If
they only knew what outsiders
link of it, I think they would stop it.
The prettiest girl in the world is"
bsolutely devoid of charm if she is
pertinent to her mother.
Begin to-day, girls, and save your
others all the worries you can; show
lem all the consideration you can,
nd give them all the love you can.?

DRAGGED TO DEATH.
Most Horrible Fate That Befell ,
Bright Young Boy.
Anthony Howard, the 13-year-ol
son of Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Howard, o
Pink Hill Township, Lenoir countj
N. C., met a most horrible death in ,
runaway Saturday afternoon whil<
rirtinp- n miilp from t.he field to th
house to get shelter from an ap
'proaching storm.
The lad was ploughing in th
field a half mile from the house, am
seeing the storm approaching, h
hastily unhooked the mule from th
plow, threw the trace chains acros
the mule's withers, mounted am
started home. The mule shied am
threw the boy off.
The boy's legs became entanglei
in the chain, which held him fast
This frightened the mule and he rai
away, dragging the entangled bo;
along the woods road which was ful
of roots and stumps. Thus dragge*
along young Howard'^ head and bod;
were dashed against the ground
roots and stumps until life was ex
tinct. His skull was crushed ii
several places and the bones of tin
upper part of his body were broken
To add to the horror of the situa
tion the young boy's mother, seeing
the mule coming dragging her son
ran to render him assistance, bu
was powerless to do so and the panii
stricken mule dashed by her anc
leaped the fence, with the boy dang
ling to the plow chains^'
How Prices Affect Children.
Mabel Potter Daggett, who pre
sents "A Brief for the Housewife" ir
The Delineator for June, offers soim
startling statements fcr careful con
sideration.
In order to make both ends meet
the American family has tried everj
possible expedient, she says. Many
believing that children should hot b(
born into privation, have limited th(
number to what their income wil
support'. Families with less forethought,
who number three and four
and five children, are sending thenout
to earn their daily bread. Nev
York City in 1904 issued 15,191 children's
employment certificates, and
in 1907 the figures had increased tc
29,843.
Child labor is heavy toll for the
nation to pay for high prices. Il
these have been advanced by the
operation of natural economic law
it is time to restrain artificial laws
and combinations that are forcing
them higher. For this the voices ol
)
women are calling in a demand that
is growing more and more insistent.
In New York the have held open-air
street meetings to pass resolutions
urging Congress to act in the matter,
A year ago, when Congress was
giving the country the "present tarifi
schedule, women protested as never
before in .history. From Chicago came
an appeal with 20,000 signatures
written on a bale of paper, which
was drawn on a dray through the
streets of Washington to the great
white Capitol on the hill. The prohests
that eathered from every State
mounted into millions of names. They
piled up by the yard on the tables ol
the House Committee on Ways and
Means and the Senate Committee od
Finance?later to be swept into the
oblivion of the waste-basket. This
constitutent has no ballot. WThy
bother about her? Then Congress
proceeded to spend five months in
fervid oratory by which was enacted
a tariff taxing everything that the
workingman buys, while his labor,
the only thing he has to sell, was
carelessly left on the free list along
with rags and uncut diamonds.
The housewife has little knowledge
of politics. Her husband usually has
told her that the tariff is something
you have to have. It is an inherited
national belief that you do. And
mere feminine reasoning may be unorthodox
in its logic. But what every
woman knows is that there's somet-hinfr
wrnngr with a nolitical economy
that has made even little children,
along with the necessities of life, a
luxury in the American home!
Duncan Turned Down.
Spartanburg, May 14.?Judge T.. S
Sease to-day refused to grant T. C
Duncan, mayor-elect of Union, an order
restraining the town of Union
from paying from the collections ol
the present year a number of notes
given by the present administration
amounting in all to $22,400. Aftei
hearing all the arguments, Judgs
Sease said: "The debts are valid, anc
I am not going to issue an order tc
keep ^.the town from paying them.'
Bonfort's Wine and Spirit Circu
lar, a leading organ of the liquoi
trade, in a recent isue says: "The
saloon business in this country is
linipRc thp laws are so alterec
as to rid the trade of the direputabh
elements." In view of the fact tha
almost all of last year saloons
throughout the country have beei
closing at the rate of forty per da:
(as Dr. P. A. Baker reports), it is
not surprising that the liquor trad<
should find the outlook a depressing
one.

d Columbia, May 14.?The Carolii
