It is hard to tell whether Mr. M.
A. Moye or his many Barnwell
friends felt the happier because of
ip bis long deferred last week visit. He j
surely found that his absence has ndt!
; conquered their love for him. But
there'll be trouble if he does not
come again soon.?Barnwell People.

Letters from subscribers.
In remitting for his subscription
another year, Mr. W. D. McMillan,
formerly of this county, but now of
Hahira, Ga., writes: "I am well
pleased with the paper, and will write
you a letter for publication soon. I
think I will call on you some time in
the summer. I enclose a guess for
the population of Bamberg, but no
doubt' it is very inacurate, as I have
not been to Bamberg in about twenty
years."
Mrs. J. C. Kennedy, of San Antonio,
Florida, renews for another
year and says: "Send The Herald on
to me, as I don't want to miss a week.
I Was raised in the old county (Barnwell)
near Denmark, and have many
friends and relatives all around you."
Mr. Melvin Bishop, of Cottageyille,
also renews for another year and
writes: "I enclose you a dollar which
you will please place to my credit
and continue sending your paper.
Also find my census guess for Bamberg.
I note that you have purchased
a new press and I wish you much
success. I think The Herald is one
of the best county papers in the State.
I am well pleased with it an? don't
regret the money I pay for it. Wishing
you and your paper and also your
office force a long life and prosperity,"
etc.
Great Clubbing Offer.
\
&We have just completed arrangements
by which we can send The
Bamberg Herald and the Progressive
Farmer an entire year for only
?.50. This will save you fifty cents,
as the4price of each paper is one dollar
a year and you can't get it for
less outside of this combination. The
Progressive Farmer is the best agricultural
paper we know of4, and every
farmer in the county ought to take it.
If your subscription to The Herald
is now paid a full year in advance
(that is one year from this date)
you can get the Progressive Farmer
by paying us fifty cents. If you are
now a subscriber to the Progressive
Farmer and wish to renew through
us, we can send it to you foi: 85
cents instead of $1.00. The rate of
fifty cents applies on new subscriptions
only. Every citizen of Bamberg
county ought to have The Herald,
and we_hope a number will take
advantage of this liberal proposition.
Respond promptly as we cannot
promise to hold this offer open. It
is liable to be withdrawn at any
time.

NEWS AND NOTICES. I,
The union meeting has come and | j
gone and seemed quite a success all i
the way through. About every church ,
in the district was represented, and
nearly every speaker on the pro
gram was present and filled their <
places well. We regretted that Dr. <
Potest could not be with us on Sun
day, but Bro. Hauser gave jib a good <
and well received sermon in his stead <
Sunday morning by special request. <
Bro. Jones, of Williston, was with us <
on Saturday also, and rendered valu- <
able assistance on the program.
The Sunday-school showed off well
as usual on Sunday morning. ]
Pastor Frier preached at night one
of his series of sermons on conversion
from individual experience, announcing
that he would conclude the series
next Sunday night. He also announc- \
ed that he would conclude his chart j
lectures on the Baptist position, call- t
ing attention again to the photo- S
graphs of same for the benefit of any *
who may desire to keep the outline j
before them for future study.

Our New Press. (
The Herald is unavoidably late <
this week, for our troubles came in a ?
bunch. In the first place we can run (
our linotype aiiu presses umj <*.<, night,
as the cotton mill is shut down ]
now and we get no day current. Also 1
our linotype operator was sick for j
several days, which put us consider- j
ably behind before we could get more '
help. In additicfh to all this, we had
some rush brief work for the. Su- 1
preme Court, which kept us working i
day and night. Then, our new Miehle ]
press arrived some days ago, and the
erector has been here since Monday ]
morning installing it. This, too, has
caused our office force additional ,
work and has caused some disar- 1
rangement of our routine. * j
But the setting up of the press will
be finished by the time this is print- i
ed, and we will be glad for our ]
friends to drop in and see it at work. (
It is a beautiful machine, and was ^
bought because of the large increase j
in our job printing business. It; is a 1
fine job press, and there is no better
or more .modern machine on the mar- ^
ket to-day. This equipment will en- t
able us to do book printing as well j
as all other classes of job work quick- ]
ef and better, and we are now in posi- j
tion to take care of any book Job, no j
matter how large. 1
Now if our customers will just send J
us enough business to keep this press *
busy, we shall be very mucn gratified.
Teachers Elected.

A Cariosity.
Tuesday afternoon of this week
mail carrier E. F. Free brought into
our office a small pig, only a few
days old, which was certainly a curiosity
and had it lived would have
created much interest as a freak of
nature. The animal was perfectly
formed except that it had no nose
or snout, and its one eye was in the
centre of it^ head. The mouth was
above where the snout should be, and
made its face resemble that of a
monkey. It had to breathe through
its mouth and had not suckled its
mother, being unable to do so. It
seemed to be in good shape otherwise
and Mr. Free was going to attempt
to raise it Dy arunciai iooas, out n
died Tuesday night. The animal's
mother belonged to Mr. J. C. McMillan,
of the Colston section, and the
balance of the litter were all right.
Business League. Meeting.
/
\
A short but interesting meeting of
the Bamberg Business Men's League
was held in the city hall last Friday
afternoon, this being the regular
monthly metting. Several amendments
tp the constitution and by-laws
were proposed by Mr. J. * F. Carter,
which will be acted on at the next
meeting. The most important amendment
was that reducing the monthly
dues.
Secretary Riley read the names of
those who had joined as charter
members, and the list showed that
most of the business men in the city
had joined the organization. The
league has nearly seventy-five mem
