Fire Lapt Week.
The house of J. J. Brabham, a
negro, situated just outside of the
city limits, was burned Ijjonday of
last week. He sayk that the house
contained five rooms and was insured
for $300, with $250 insurance
on the furniture. The fire broke out
about 11 o'clock in the morning, and
much of the furniture was damaged
in moving, while a portion of the
household goods were destroyed.
Brabham says the fire originated
from the kitchen stove flue.
The house was to have been sold

Dr. H. J. Stuckey, of Bishopville,
Lee county, was in the city last week
prospecting for a location, and he

of his profession. He came in this
week, and will make Bamberg his
home. We are delighted to welcome
him. There is room in Bamberg for
all good citizens.

Contract Signed.
At last it seems tliat the Southern
Railway is going to install electric
lights in the passenger station. Last
week the contract for the lights was
signed by A. W. Knight, chairman
of the commissioners of public
works, and the. railroad authorities,
and it is their intention to hurry
the matter as rapidly as possible, so
they say. This will be good news to
the traveling public, for the station
has been without adequate lights
for a long time. The board of public
works has been after the railroad,
for several y^rs about this light
matter, and naturally they are gratified
that at last their efforts are to
meet with success.

see them quick. They also have a
nice lot of mules on hand, also buggies

Platform Being Enlargeck
The large amount of cotton coming
to Bamberg this season has made
the enlargement of the cotton platform
at the depot necessary, and
this work is now being done. It will
be remembered that the enlarging

the cotton buyers, and Superintendent
Wassum was prompt in complying
with their request. Let the railroad
pursue this sort of policy all
the time, and they will have less
complaints.
^
The Cotton Market.
Cotton is selling in Bamberg today
at eleven cents the pound, the
price having gone down in the last
few days. The receipts at this point
are very heavy, wagons coming in
from every direction, as the buyers
here are paying more than at other
towns in this section, and in fact
more than in most towns of the State.
The record shows that the Bamberg
market has been away ahead all
the season, and as a consequence
lots of cotton is being hauled here
from a distance.
Judge DeVore in the sessions
court at Orangeburg on Tuesday
fined one blind tiger $250 and another
$100. They were both white
and had pleaded guilty.

IMPORTANT NOTICE.
On and after this date the
subscription price of The Bamberg
Herald is $1.50 a year.
Persons who have paid in advance
for the paper will not be
affected by the change in price
until the time they have paid
for expires. Of course we
could not change the rate on
them after they had made a contract
with us to furnish the paper
at $1.00 a year and had paid
for it. The newT rate will apply
to new subscriptions and old
snhsrriotions as they expire.
The rate now is $1.50 a year,
75 cents for six months, or 50
cents for three months. Please
remember this. Subscriptions
must be paid in advance.
This increase in price is made
necessary by the advance in
everything which enters into
our business, and we cannot
publish such a paper as The
Herald at one dollar a year and
live. Our expenses have gone
up more than fifty per cent,
and a dollar paper is no longer
possible. The Herald is worth
$1.50, too. It is all printed at
home, and gives more reading
matter *than any weekly in this
section, and we feel sure that
none of our readers will object
to the increase in price, but that
all will realize the justice and
necessity of it. ,

U. D. C; Chapter Meeting.
The members of the U. D. C. Chapter
were entertained at the hospitable
home of Mrs. Jno. Cooner last Tuesday
afternoon. After two months of
inactivity it was a pleasure to come
together and enter with new vigor
and ardor into the work which is
now of all-absorbing interest to the
Daughters of the Bamberg Chepter?
the raising of funds for the Confederate
monument so soon to be unveiled.
This undertaking to raise an ,
amount sufficient to erect a monument
which will be a credit to the
town and county, an object of pride
to the surviving veterans and to the
loved ones of those soldiers who have
gone on before, and an inspiration to
the childrell of coming generations,
has been 'no mere child's play. This
band of patriotic women, led and
aroused into, enthusiasm whenever
their spirits flagged, by their president,
Mrs. G. Frank Bamberg, whose ,
enthusiasm never wanes, has managed
to raise a goodly sum. But
$900 is still necessary before the last
payment can be made, and on the ,
loyal patriots?men and women?of
our town and county, they must depend
for help in raising this amount.
Right generously has every appeal
ben met, but some have given nothing
as yet, others have promised to
increase their subscriptions when
the monument had been erected.
To these this appeal is directed; a
bountiful harvest has been given us,
and now, if ever, each citizen is able
to do his part.
Pay your subscriptions directly to
Mrs. G. Frank Bamberg, or, if more
convenient to those coming in from
the country, to Mr. A. W. Knight.
He will be glad to receive them and
give you credit for the amount. Remember
that history demands the
erection of these monuments, for in ;
coming years out glorious past <
would be unknown but for their imperishable
record. This monument,
our tribute to our lauetu neroes,
will soon be erected. Can you feel
satisfied in years to come if you shirk ;
your duty and have no part in its <
erection? ^ 1
The unveiling ceremonies will be ;
held some time in the latter part of
October, the day will be given in our ,
next issue. This is going to be the
day which will go down into the annals
of the history of Bamberg. We
want not only the whole of Bamberg
to have part in.it but the surrounding
country, and all of our
firends throughout the State.
Miss Huey Will Wed.
Invitations have been received
here to the wedding reception of Miss
Jessie Huey, which will take place

here as one of the teachers
in the graded school.
Worth the Price.
The Bamberg Herald has raised its
subscription price from one dollar to
one dollar and a half per annum.
This is a wise step on the part of The
Herald, and it should be promptly
! responded to by its subscribers. If
a newspaper like The Herald is not
I worth one dollar and a half per annum
we confess that we know nothi
ing of newspaper values. All country
newspapers now published at one
I dollar per annum ought to follow
The Herald's example, and raise .
their subscription price.?Orangeburg

Cotton Receipts Large.

the crowd of wagons was so greal
that the streets were lined with them

Over five hundred bales were
received here last Saturday. The
reason is that Bamberg is paying
