David, left to-day for Charleston to
spend a few days.
The Woman's Home Mission Society
will meet with Mrs. Kirsch next
Tuesday afternoon at 5:30 o'clock.
At the meeting of Oman lodge, A.

imaay evening, at wunu mo .mooter's
degree was conferred upon
Messrs. Chas. Schwartz and Willie
Dickinson.
- ? At the session of the Orangeburg
district conference, held at Bowman
last week, Mr. O. B. Riley, Capt. J.
B. Guess, Maj. A. C. Dibble, and a
Mr.'Wethers were elected as delegates
to'the annual conference.
Last Friday was the-day for the
holding of the scholarship and entrance
examinations for Winthrop
college, by the county board of education.
There were eight applicants
for Winthrop, and one for the College
of Charleston.
The county expenses of Bamberg
for the fiscal year ending July 1st
are less than last year, this year's
expenses being a little more than
$17,0UU. wnne most touuuw an?
increasing their expenses, Bamberg
?is economizing, yet keeping out of
debt.
Judge J. W. Devore held court
here last Thursday for a few hours,
but only equity business was transacted.
Several cases were referred
' to the Master, and several orders
were granted. The attorneys were
all ready, and the business was soon
dispatched.
A regular meeting of Bamberg
lodge, Knights of Pythias, was held
last Monday evening, but the crowd
present was too small to attempt degree
work. The Knight and Page
Ranks were to have been conferred,
and the applicants were present. No
doubt the hot weather kept the members
from attending. - s
There has been considerable com~
? w ?* J
plaint in Bamoerg recently m regaru
to the condition of the telephones.
?& v Many people have not been able to
nse their 'phones with any degree of
satisfaction. The cause is said to
' be in the switch-board, and it does
not lie with the operators, who are
competent aijd obliging.
The boys are getting along well
with their band practice, and Bamberg
will soon have a musical or|p'
ganization to be proud of. Under the
leadership of Mr. C. W. Rentz, the
rs, young men are earnest and enthusiastic
in practice. A concert is to be
given at the Fitting School auditorial
% nm July 27tl^ for the benefit of the
band.
May Harris, the white girl, and
t Richard Williams, the negro man, I
both witnesses in the case against L.
B. Tuten for the murder of J. R.
Langford, which has been transferred
to this county for trial, were, by
order of Judge Devore, transferred
to the Bamberg jail last week, where
they will remain until the November
term of court.
Recently city council has clayed
Midway avenue, the town carts being
used for the purpose. Clay is badly
needed on other streets of the city,
and as "laying by" time will soon be
here, it would be a good idea if council
tould get some of our patriotic
citizens to furnish some teams for a
day or so and clay the streets most
in need of improvement.
NAVAL EXPERTS WILL DECIDE.

Bixby Denies Making Statements as
to Origin Maine Explosion.
IP < '
,S'-.
Washington, July 6.?A board of
naval officers, experts in explosives,
Is being selected by the navy department
to study the hull of the battle- *
ship Maine in Havana harbor as
the water is pumped from the coffer-dam
now surrounding the wreck.
Because of the necessarily slow progress
of the work weeks probably will
elapse before the board will be able
. .. ... _
to uiorougniy inspect tne snip, me
board will leave for Havana as soon
i x as its personnel is made known, and
will remain there until the work is
finished.
Gen. W. H. Bixby, chief engineer,
who has just returned from Havana,
to-day issued the following signed
"statement:
"The work of unwatering the
Maine so far proves nothing as to the
origin of the explosion of the magazines,
but already shows such extensive
destruction of the forward part
of the boat that it is quite probable
that fuller unwatering will fail to
give any proofs either way as to the
origin of such explosions. I have so
far made no reports or statements as
to the origin of the explosion."

SENSATIONAL FIND.
Undeveloped Whit? Infant Found in
a Ditch in Bamberg.
Monday afternoon a little before
sundown a daughter of S. Yeitrakis
saw a white woman whom she did
not know throw a bundle in the ditch
which crosses Elm street near his
residence. An investigation was
made soon afterward and it was
found that the bundle contained the
body of an immature white infant.
The child was wrapped in a cloth and
placed in a paper sack. The body
was brought down town and was
seen by several gentlemen. There are
a number of rumors afloat as to the
mother of the child, but nothing
definite is known so far as we have
been able to learn. It is supposed
that the mother was unmarried, but
even in this event her disposal of the
infant was certainly very queer, as
the place at which the bundle was
thrown in the ditch is right on a
public street. Besides it was not
dark at the time.
Kind Words.
Mr. Geo. R. Lombard, president of
the Lombard Iron Works and Supply
Co., of Augusta, one of the most
reliable firms in existence and one
that does a large business in this
section, wrote us the other day as
follows: ?
"Congratulate you on your fine
county paper, one of the best that
comes to our office. July 6th paper
before me well printed, full of interesting
news. Wish you the success
you deserve."
Mr. Lombard has been an advertiser
in The Herald for years, and we
appreciate his writing us. It is
enough to make a country newspaper
man feel good when a busy business
man, of large affairs, finds time to i
look over a country weekly and then
write the editor. The people of Bamberg
will in time regret that they
have not supported The Herald more
liberally and appreciated its efforts
in a more substantial way. We cannot
publish a newspaper that is a
+/-? fVio fr?wn unlesR wa cet more
V/J. VU1V VV VUV VW ff ?* .. w ^ |
business, and we ask it solely on the
ground of deserving it as well as giving
value received.
Fined Fifty Dollars.
Mr. Chas. R. Jones, a white man
who conducts a small store on the
street below Copeland's store, was
arrested last Wednesday afternoon
for being drunk and disorderly and
firing his pistol in his store. He resisted
when Policeman Moody went
to arrest him and defied him to enter
the store. He was arrested by Chief
Hand and Mr. Moody without trouble,
and was'tried before Mayor Smoak
on Friday afternoon. He was given
a fine of, $50.00 or thirty days, and
the fin? was paid. It will be remembered
that Jones was convicted some
11 _Ii._ !_ iv. 1.M1
years ago ior cornynuit^ m mo fining
of Elijah Norman in the cotton
mill here by his brother, Bragg
Jones, but C. R. Jones was pardoned
a year or more ago.

HUNT FOR RAILROAD ROBBERS.
C., C. & O. Safe Dynamited and Star
tion Wrecked?Sheriff Wounded.
Asheville, N. C., July 10.?The
station of the Carolina, Clinchfleld
and Ohio Railroad at Marion Junction
was dynamited early this morning
and practically wrecked, the iron
safe having been demolished, the
windows blown out and the roof torn
off. Only $4 was in the safe at the
time, and this was taken by the robbers,
supposed to consist of three I
men. The wreckers placed dynamite
on top of the safe and blew a
hole in it, and filling the hole after
ward with dynamite, blew the safe
open and wrecked the station.
Sheriff Mashburn, of Marion, McDowell
county, N. C., started in pursuit
of the robbers with bloodhounds,
but they eluded the pursuers, coming
in the direction of Asheville.
To-night, when No. 75, a Southern
freight train, pulled into Old Fort,
N. C., three men were seen to alight.
The sheriff, who had come to Old
Fort in pursuit, attempted to talk
with the men, when one of them ran
and commenced firing. The sheriff
was struck in the ankle and painfully
injured. A posse of citizens of Old
Fort took up the pursuit, and one of
the posse, a carrier hoy, name unknown,
was shot in the arm. The al-|
leged robbers escaped to the mountains,
followed by the entire male
population of the little village.
Sheriff Mashburn was taken to his
home at Marion for medical treat-:
ment, and several of his deputies!
were sent to Old Fort, where they]
will arrive at 2 o'clock Tuesday]
morning, to take up an organized
search for the desperadoes.
DOUBLE LYNCHING PREVENTED.
Mob Ready to Avenge Injury of Anderson
Farmer.
Anderson, July 10.?The lynching
of i. negro man and his wife, in the
Neal's Creek section or Anderson*
county, was narrowly averted to-day
by cool heads and the prompt arrival
of officers on the scene. H. P. McDaniels,a
wealthy farmer, reprimanded
his negro tenant, T. C. Williams,
for cutting down some pine saplings.
The negro resented the reprimand
and made an attack on Mr. McDaniels,
hitting him between the shoulder
blades with a large rock. One
of the shoulder blades was fractured
and his spinal column was injured.)
The news of the attack spread rapidly
through the county, and within
an hour a large throng had gathered
at the McDaniel's home, many coming
from a distance in autos. A warrant
against the negro, charging assault
and battery with intent to kill,
was secured from Magistrate Martin
and Deputy Richard Smith arrested
the negro, who offered no resistance.
Because the negro's wife attempted
to help him, by bringing out a shotgun,
she was also arrested.
Immediately after the arrests were
effected Deputy Sheriff Van Martin
and Constable Tom Davis arrived in
an auto, picked up the prisoners and
rushed them to the county jail. The
mob had greatly increased in number
and violence to the negroes wasj
expected. Col. D. A. Geer and others
held the crowds back, and prevalid
upon them to allow the law to
taKe us course.
Mr. McDaniels is a peaceable man
and one of the best citizens of the
county; his condition to-night is serious,
partial paralysis having set in.
He is about 50 years old and has
taken an active work in the school
and church of his community.
Great indignation over the brutal
attack has been expressed by the people,
and that a double lynching was
averted reflects great credit upon the
presence of mind of some of the men
present and the work of the officers,
who swiftly landed the negroes in
jail. No further demonstration is
expected.
Negro Beaten; Bathed in Tnrpentine.
Quitman, Ga., July 6.?News has
been received here of the horrible
beating of a negro, Dave Williams,
by other negroes, ten in all being
mixed up in the outrage. An attempt
was made to run Williams
away from a turpentine camp at
Dixie, so the account runs, and he
left this camp and went to that of
Wade & Co., near Piscola. The
Dixie negroes sent word to those at
the Wade camp that the negro should
be run off.
Two negroes named Lee and Miles
led in the assault on Williams and
the details as brought in by white
TYnan ora harharnns. Thft TlPCTn was I
UI^U U1 V/ WWV* ? ?
beaten almost to a pulp and it is
said turpentine was then poured over
him and he was thrown into a swamp
nearby and left for dead, as was reported
last week.
Two days after the beating a
woods rider for the camp, a white
man, found the negro in the swamp
still alive. He had him removed to
a house and sent for a doctor, who
says the man may die. A justice of
the peace court bailiff arrested some
of the negroes concerned and brought
them in, but they were released on
bond.

CHARGED WITH SELLING LIQUOR
Arrest of Fort Motte Mayor Sensasation
in Calhoun County.
i
St. Matthews, July 10.?The latest
sensation in Calhoun county liquor
circles was the arrest of George W.
Willard, at Fort Motte, this morning,
on the charge of selling liquor.
Mr. Willard is mayor of Fort Motte
and highly connected by marriage
and otherwise. Sheriff Dantzler
brought him to St. Matthews this
afternoon, where he waived a preliminary
and gave bond for his appearance
at court of general sessions.
It is a matter of profound regret
to Mr. Willard's numerous friends in
the county and it is earnestly hoped
by his friends that he will be able to
clear himself of the serious charge.
Numerous citizens of the Fort Motte

plaints to the authorities about the
matter and detectives were employed
to work up the case. Out of consideration
for his official and social
standing, he, it is said, had been duly
warned, in order to avoid the final
sensational climax.
DAMAGE $100,000.
Hail Storm at Beulah, Ala., Proved
Disastrous.
_
Opelika, Ala., July 6.?Further reports
from Beulah, Ala., the scene of
the disastrous hail storm on Tuesday,
estimate the property damage at not
less than $100,000. Crops were the
chief sufferers, although 30 families,
both negroes and whites, are in want
of the necessities of life. An army
officer from Fort McPherson is en
route here to see what aid can be
given by the war department.
Woman Rescued from Quicksand.'
Shortly after 11 o'clock yesterday
morning a telephone message was received
at police headquarters, to the
effect that some person was sunk in
the mud along the Ashley river at the
foot of Bee street, so deep that only
the head showed above the surface.
Privates Eason and Wermann hurried
* " of.
10 1116 scene aiiu tuiei ucmcuuuua
fort and considerable risk, they succeeded
in rescuing a negro woman
who proved to be Gracie Lindsay,
from the clutches of the treacherous
mud.
The warning had been given to the
police by Mrs. Welsh, of No. 8 Chinquapin
street. She said that early
Sunday morning she had seen a black
object far out on the marsh, and that
when she saw it move she thought
that it must be an animal, or bird of
some sort that frequents the mud
flat. When the object did not change
its position for several hours, however,
her curiosity was aroused and
she mentioned the fact to her husband,
who examining the marsh with
field glasses made the startling discovery
that the supposed bird was
- - - - ? - f 1- xi
tne neaa or a numan oemg m iue
grasp of the quicksand. It was then
that word was sent to the police,
and the prompt arrival of the .two officers
resulted in the rescue of the
woman.
The victim of this terrible experience
is a typical old fashioned family
servant, probably between fifty and
sixty years old, and was dressed in
the conventional apron and turban
of the class. When rescued from her
peril in the mud she was plainly not
in her right mind, and whether the
condition was the result of her exnn^Annn

ter having been cleansed of the mud
and furnished with dry clothes she
was sent to the hospital, where she
will he treated as weak-minded, and
her condition carefully watched.
While no consecutive story of the
way in which she got into the mud
could be gotten from the woman the
one which she repeated most often
was that a man put her into a boat
and pushed her overboard when far
from the shore. The name or description
of the man could not be obtained
from the wandering negress,
and whether the tale is fact or fancy
can not be determined.?Charleston
Post.
After the Cotton Trade.
Houston, Tex., July 7.?What Is
regarded here as the most aggressive
move yet made by Orientals to obtain
a share in the South's cotton business
was put into full swing to-day by the
chartering at Austin of a $100,000
company by K. Fukushima, a Japanese.
He is manager for the Mitsui
Banking house of Japan and has
opened offices here. The purpose is
to export cotton to Asiatic countries
! through agencies to be established
throughout the Orient. These plans
follow the personal visit to this
country about a year ago of Baron
Mitsui, who studied the cotton and^
| rice Dusmess.
Mistaken for Mulatto.
Louisville, Ky., July 7.?Because
she was mistaken for a mulatto on
account of her dark complexion and
[ compelled to ride in a "jim crow"
car, Miss Rella Ritchell, of Kokomo,
Ind., was awarded $3',750 damages
against the Louisville and Nashville
railroad.

\
HELD FOR KILLING.
Shooting Took Place Just Outside of F
Greenville City Limits.
*
Greenville, July 9.?Holding Les- 1<
ter Bryant responsible for the killing S
of Charles Stewart, Coroner Batson's p
jury this afternoon returned a ver- o
diet in the fatal shooting affray which y
occurred about 2 o'clock yesterday c
morning in the Cripple Creek section a
just beyond the city limits. Bryant a
surrendered to the county jailer n
about 3:30 o'clock this morning, admitting
that he killed Stewart, and r
is now in jail. A warrant charging v
him with murder will be taken out a
to-morrow morning by Coroner Bat- h
son, and it is probable that the case I
will be tried at the next term of the v
court of general sessions. 3
There were three witnesses to the u
shooting, two women and one man.
The location of the killing has a rather
disreputable character, and the
shooting followed a slight quarrel t
between the dead man and a woman 15
who was with Bryant. \ f
Both men are residents of the Poe T
cotton mill village and are unmar- *
ried. Two pistols were brought in- 1
to use, and it is certain Bryant had t
one, and probable that Stewart had f
the other.
Locomotive Struck Auto.
Spartanburg, July 8.?Mr. and 1
Mrs. J. L. Cantrell, whose plantation
is three miles from Liberty in Pick- 1
ens county, and Warren Smith, who *
lives in Liberty, were injured, Mr.
Smith more seriously than the oth- (
ers, when an automobile in which
they were driving to Spartanburg *
was struck by a locomotive at Tu- 1
capau at 9 o'clock this morning and
wrecked. Mr. and Mrs. Cantrell's
two small children, who were also in
the machine, were thrown out, but (
escaped with scarcely a scratch. j
The party left Liberty early in the ?
morning to come to Spartanburg to I
visit Mrs. Cantrell's sister. Near 1
Wellford they' were running along 1
the national highway at a smart clip ;
when the accident occurred. In front |
of the home of L. N. McMillan the I
A
highway crosses a siding leading j
fmm thp Southern railway to the Tu- J
capau mills. There is a sharp curve
in the road and the party in the automobile
did not see the engine bearing
down upon them until it was too
late. The collision smashed the
touring car and threw the occupants >
out into the road, but clear of the
track. The children were unhurt,
but Mr. Smith was rendered uncon- <
scious and Mr. and Mrs. Cantrell |
both sustained painful scalp wounds. (
All of the members of the party were ?
taken to the home of Mr. McMillan, i
Dr. Moore and Dr. Vernon were call- ^
ed, and dressed their wounds. Mr. ^
and Mrs.' Cantrell recovered sufficiently
to return to Liberty with their (
children in the evening.
It was regarded as unsafe to re- ]
move Mr. Smith, and he is at the
home of Mr. McMillan. He regained ,
consciousness, and Dr. Vernon stated
that he seemed to be doing well.
