is thought the election will be or%
dered soon.
We were in error in stating last
week that Representative W. L. Ri*ley

on incorporations, railroads,
hanking and insurance, and military.
Mr. Hunter is a member of the committees

State Lecturer Holloway.
At the court house last Thursday
State Lecturer J. B. O'Neall Holloway,
of Newberry, gave a most interesting
and instructive address on
the principles of the Farmers' Union.
Mr. Holloway had been filling appointments
in Bamberg county for a
week or more, and he concluded his
visit with the meeting last Thursday.
,
There was a fairly good crowd
present, and it was noted that there
was. present representative ' farmers
from various sections of the county.
Mr. Holloway's address was, as stated,
interesting and instructive. He
took up the principles of the Farmers'
. Union and discussed them in
telligently and forcefully. He streesed
the fact that the Union stands for
education, and in this connection he
said that he saw some schol houses
in the county that did not reflect
credit upon us as a people. Everywhere
he saw fine churches, which
was right but that the schools should
keep step with the progress along
other lines. He spoke of the great
necssity for organization among the
farmers. All other business and
professions were organized, and
while it was exactly right for them
to organize, the farmer should also
organize. He had not come to antagonize
a single organization. It
was right to organize in any business,
therefore the necessity for the
m n who made his living by the
sweat of his brow to organize was
gre&t.
Mr. Holloway told how the Farmers
Union had its inception, and gave
an interesting history of the organization
from its beginning up to
the present time. Those present we
feel sure enjoyed his address, for
there was no attempt to array the
farmers against any other class, but
a broad, liberal spirit permeated his
remarks. There were no appeals to
prejudice, as we have listened to unfortunately
in the past from some
so-called friends of the farmer, and
we feel sure the meeting and address
will do much good for the
cause of the Farmers Union in this
county.
Business League.
A meeting of the Bamberg business
league was held last Friday
evening. At this meeting Mr. W. P.
Riley resigned as secretary and treasurer
on acount of not having the
time to devote to the duties of the
office. Mr. B. D. Carter was elected
to fill\the vacancy. A number of
matters for the good of Bamberg
were discussed and reports had from
some of the committees.
A special meeting of the league
will be held in the city hall Tuesday
evening, January 31st, at which
every business man in Bamberg
should be present. The question to
be decided is one of yital importance
to this city, and no business man
who has the good of the town at
heart will be absent from this meeting.
The meeting will be held at
seven o'clock, sharp, so be prompt.

Mr. Bamberg's Appointment.
In appointing Mr. G. E. Bamberg,
a popular young business man of
this city a member of his official
staff, with the rank of colonel, Gov.
Blease has made a wise selection
and one which meets with the approval
of the entire community. Mr.
Bamberg is thoroughly competent to
fill the position with credit both to
the State and to the town he will
represent. He graduated from Clemson
in 1902 with the rank of lieutenant
and has served for seven years
as a lieutenant of the Bamberg
Guards. For th.e past year he has
served as battalion adjutant on the
staff of Maj. R. Boyd Cole, of Barnwell.
He has many friends throughout
the State, who will be pleased
to know he has been deservedly advanced
in rank.

NEWS AND NOTICES.
There was a very good attendance
at the prayer meeting service last
Thursday evening. Why not let us
keep it up during the year and make
our prayer meeting worth while?
Dr. Hair gave an interesting account
of the laymen's meeting in Columbia.
Good congregations attended both
services on Sunday and gave close
attention to the sermons. Pastor
Frier's theme Sunday morning was:
Right Application as Necessary as
Right Views of Scripture Truths.
His theme at night was: The Social
Influence and Contagion of Sin, as
seen from the Career of Jeroboam
the first king of the ten tribes of Israel
after the division of the kingdom.
He preceded the discourse by
singing, "Some One is Looking to
You." A solemn awe seemed to pervade
the congregation as the preacher
earnestly pictured the seriousness
of leading and influencing others in
sin, closing with the scriptural admonition
to guard against its contagion
as quarantine precautions are
taken with reference to contagious
diseases.
On account of the address of Dr.
Vining on Wednesday night, as announced
last week, there will be no
prayer meeting this week.
As Pastor Frier is to preach the
missionary sermon at the Union at
Blackville next Sunday morning,
there will be no preaching here at
the morning hour. He will return
on the evening train, however, and
there will be regular service at night.
Several brethren were appointed
Sunday to represent this church at
the fifth Sunday union meeting of
this division at Springtown church
next Saturday and Sunday. Any
member attending may act as a representative.
The special program of the Sunbeam
Band for next Sunday night
was postponed on account of general
vaccination among the children.
Hightower-Sandifer.

On Sunday evening at 3 o'clock,
January 22, 1911, at the residence
of Rev. F. M. lHauser, Denmark, a
murriiro wna Hnlpmnized in which
Nettie Mae Sandifer and John Cleve
Hightower were the contracting parties.
The beautiful bride was attired in
a dress of cream. She is the only
daughter of Mr. John Love, and is
well known. She has a host of
friends who wish fpr Jier a long and
prosperous life. Mr. Hightower is
the son of Mr. R. J. Hightower.
Veterans Entertained.
Lee's birthday was fittingly observed
by the U. D. C. chapter at the
Mayflower Inn. Twenty-three veterans
were present in response to
the invitations which had been sent
by the chapter. The program consisted
of: i

hous, H. G. Driggs, J. K. Kisher,
Jas. Walker, S. D. Guess, J. B. Hunter,
J. F. Jones, and J. H. Zeigler.
After the exercises a most sumptuous
dinner was served, the ladies
deeming it an honor to wait upon
those who gave up "all but honor''
to answer to their country's call.
Many happy little speeches were
made by various veterans, voicing
the thanks of the camp to the daughters.
All of the old soldiers left
with sweet memeories of the past
filling their hearts, recalled by the
singing of "A Southern Girl" by
genial Capt. J. K. Risher, the entire
company joining in the chorus.

Meeting of the Old Veterans with the
, U. P. C.
The 19th of January, 1911, will
long be remembered by the United
Confederate Veterans of Bamberg
county, for by special invitation all
the old soldiers of the county were
requested by the U C. D. of the
Francis Marion Bamber Chapter to
meet here.
Tn nnmnlianpo with thie nntifipn
tion, notwithstanding the inclemency
of the weather, quite a number of the
old grays were present." Many others
whom we had anxiously wished
and looked for were prevented by
the unfavorable condition of the
weather. Will mention a list of
those that were present; Capt J. K.
lusher, Jas. F. Jones, J. B. Hunter,
L. N. Bellinger, J. D. Felder, J. H.

in all, if we have not overlooked
any. We were greatly grati

of our most worthy lady friends
were so zealously aUied in this
praiseworthy organization.
The special purpose of the meeting
was to award crosses of honor to
those that had made the proper application
for them through our organized
camp, Micah Jenkins, Capt.
J. K. Risher and James F. Jones
officiating.
The meeting was in every respect
all that could be desired. The chapter
met at the Mayflower Inn, and
with great ease and dignity Mrs. G.
F. Bamberg and her accompanying
secretary, Mrs. M. E. Ayer, presided
over the meeting. Being the anniversary
of Gen. Robert E. Lee's
birthday, as the secretary called the
long roll, many were the beautiful,
tender and touching responses in
memory of our great, noble and beloved
leader. Search the history of
modern and ancient times, he has no
superior in those esential characteristics

the great citizen, the good man, but
hv ciria he stands and finds his

of our country, Washington?first in
war, first in peace, and first in the
hearts of our countrymen.
Now as to the banquet, the dinner
which was prepared for the old soldiers,
language fails to describe, but
there was an abundant supply and
sufficient to satisfy the most fastidious
appetite, and we readily realized
that our fair entertainers had
fully met the occasion. There was
good cheer and the dear old songs
of by-gone days restored pleasant reminiscences
of early days, and sweet
memory for a brief season rolled
back the burden of years and we saw
or seemed to see the dear old homestead
and all the loved inmates,
mother, father, sisters and brothers
and all tnat once maae nomtj picaoant
with music and song. We
thought of that dear old song: "Do
They Miss Me at Home?" and only
wished that at these social gatherings
that our kind friends would devote
more time to the singing of the
old-time songs. "Tenting on the Old
Camp Ground" was good, but could
have been better.
Capt. Risher informs me that the
zealous work of the Daughters has
given new inspiration, and many
have joined ouy camp. We are in
hopes that this will also encourage
us in rasing the necessary funds required
for the erection of the Confederate
monument, and while they
are so active and earnest in their
work, let us all come to their support,
and let there be no halt until
the work is fully accomplished.

Three Killed; Eight Wounded.
There was a wholesale shooting
scrape, in which a number of negroes
were engaged, and in which three
lives were lost, near Varennes
church, in Hall township, Thursday
night.
It appears that negroes were having
a "hot supper" at the home of
Claude Ware, a negro who lives on
Mr. J. L. Jackson's plantation. Some
other negroes, it is said, came up
and without warning opened fire
from the outside. The firing was
returned by those in the house, and
a great many shots were fired.
Will Watt and Alice Bozeman
were so badly wounded that they
died last night. Jim Pressley was
found dead in a body of woods some
distance away this morning. It is
supposed that he was in the shooting
party.
A telephone message from Storeville
this afternoon said that eight
other negroes were wounded during
Chats with the Girls.
A teacher for girls of thirty years'
experience says, when a pupil was
introduced, she always noticed first
her dress. If it was plain, neat, and
tidy, she was confident she had good
material to work with. It showed
the girl had an idea of the fitness of
things. This argued common sense,
which is directly opposed to vanity.
Parents make a great mistake when
they clothe you in material suitable
for women. You will have nothing
to look forward to when you are
grown. You will feel old before your

; Be girls first, fun-loving, frolicsome
girls, intent only upon getting a
strong mind, and a strong body, so
when the duties of life come, you
will be prepared for them. Be thorough
in everything you do, if it is
only sweeping a -room. Keep your
eyes open, and learn "something of
everything," and which is more .important
"everything of something."
Find out what suits you best, and
then direct your efforts mainly to
acquiring knowledege that will make
you self-sustaining. The richest
girl as well as the poorest, should
know how to do at least one thing
well. See how the Queen of England
is bringing up her daughter.
"Princess Mary, daughter of the
king and queen of England, has been
reared in a thoroughly practical
manner and though only thirteen
years old she is perhaps much better
equipped to earn her own living
now, were such a necessity imposed
upon her, than a girl in a poor
family. She has been required to
learn French, German and Spanish,
but the languages figure as the least
of her accomplishments. Her mother,
who is clever at needlework, has
taught her to make lace and even
to make her own clothing. More recently
she has taken up the typewriter.
She has begged her father
to dictate letters to her, as she wants
to be of help to him. She says that <
when she gets older she will learn
stenography. The princess is thrifty,

I am convinced that girls generally
think entirely too much about
dress and at entirely too early
an age. You see, girls, you can be
intemperate as well as the boys.

truthfully said of some of the fash-;
ions nowadays? The more they cost,
and the more ridiculous they make

was gorgeous in the extreme,

been a more profitable investment
to spend the time and money thus

while the elaborate dress will last
only a season or two. Another
thing, things are pretty by contrast. ;
A jeweler always uses a plain setting
for the sparkling diamond. Too
many gorgeous things do not look
well together. When an artist
paints an angel, he always clothes
her in plain garments. The face
should be the attraction. But I
hear you say, "We are not all pretty."
True enough, but fancy clothes
only aggravate a homely face, while
they do not add to the charms of the
beautiful.

But is, when unadorn'd, adorn'd the

Fire in Orangeburg.
Orangeburg, Jan. 24.?The ^wholesale
grocery establishment of Jennings
& Smoak was destroyed by Are
last night. The fire was "discovered
shortly after midnight and upon the
arrival of the fire department the
building was a mass of flames. Despite
hard work on the part of the
firemen the building was a total loss.
This large brick warehouse is located
on Sellers avenue, in the manufacturing
and railroads sections of
the city, which is some distance from
the business sections. The loss on
stock and building is about $15,000,
while the insurance on the building
was $2,000 owned by Dr. W. S. Barton,
of Orangeburg county. The fire
is thought to have been of incendiary
origin.
This is the second large fire at
Orangeburg during the past week.
The origin of the fire that destroyed
the cotton ware house of John Cart,
containing 1,000 bales of cotton, on
last Thursday, is also thought to
have been the work of incendiaries.

LIE PASSED IN COURT. V ^
Grace and Mordecai Create Disorderly
Scene.
Charleston, Jan. 23.?A lively
wrangle between the lawyers,
Messrs. Grace and Mordecai, with
the exchange of epithets marked the
hearing to-day of the will case of the
late Michael C. O'Neill in the probate
court, necessitated the adjournment
of the court, on acount of the
confusion, but not until Sheriff Martin
had been sent for to restore order.
Capt. Edmund Kemble was op
the witness stand on cross-examination.
A question of an originhl paper
in the case precipitated a dis
cussion between tne attorneys wnicn
then became personal between -% ,
Messrs. Grace and Mordecai. The
case will be called to-morrow morning
at 10 o'clock.
Attorney Smith representing Mr.
Mordecai asked for the production
of one of the original papers in the *
case in the possession of Messrs. Logan
and Grace, attorneys for the
Misses O'Neill, bringing the remark
from Mr. Grace that he feared to
at ?
let it leave his custody.
Mr. Smith inquired to know if Mr. ,
Grace meant to infer that he would ik
steal it, which Mr. Grace denied as
to Mr. Smith, and when Mr. Mordecai
who was at the side of his counsel
asked if the attorney referred to
him, Mr. Grace said that he did.
Mr. Mordecai then called Mr. Grace
a liar.
* /
Court Adjourned.
Mr. Grace attempted to reach him
and the disturbance occurred which
brought about the suspension of the
court for the day, with the probate
judge sending for the sheriff to restore
order.
In an adjoining office and in the
corridor of the build, ig the lawyers
came together but no blow was pass- / j
ed. According to Mr. Grace he demanded
an apology which was refused
unless he would retract the
charge of theft. Mr. Mordecai suggested
"a meeting outside of the
State" while Mr. Grace wanted to . ^
have a fisticuff settlement Mr. Mor- j
decai said that he was not physically
able to meet Mr. Grace when Mr.
Grace expressed a willingness to use J
"hot lead." Serious trouble was
however averted.
Grace Makes Statement.
The lawyers in the case refused to
make a statement, save Mr. Grace, L
who said that the charge grew out
of the recent disappearance of the
Mordecai will and .declaration of c O
trust from the office of the clerk of
the supreme court until the probate ^
judge ruled recently that the papers
Bhould be again proved, when the .
papers were suddenly found and forwarded

Xegro Fires into Posse
Gainesville Ga., Jan. 24.?When a
posse of citizens yesterday went to
the home of Henry Shackleford, a
negro, to give him a horse-whipping
for an alleged insult to two white
girls, the negro began shooting, killing
Ebb Wily a well known young
man of this town. The remainder j
of the posse fled. Shackleford made
his escape and has not been captured.
