This is fine weather for colds and sore throat. *V' Try a Herald ad. and see your business increase. Look at the date on the label of v your paper and renew promptly as your time expires. We do not send the paper on credit. Last Monday was the first Monday in the month and salesday, but there were no public sales and there was not a large crowd here from the country. Cotton is selling in Bamberg today (Wednesday) at 8% cents the pound. The receipts continue light and the staple bad on account of the bad weather. Dr. O. D. Faust showed us last Friday a mammoth radish, in fact the largest we ever saw or heard of. It was grown by Capt. W. S. Bamberg and weighed seven pounds. A very pleasant social event was the miscellaneous shower given Tuesday afternoon by Mrs. J. Clarence Moye for Miss Annye Moye, who is to be married November 30 th to Mr. m G. S. O'Neal. The board of county commissioners was in session at the court house here Monday, but mostly routine v business was transacted, the passing bills, etc. A new road was granted for the Ehrhardt section. The Francis Marion Bamberg Chapter United Daughters of the Confederacy will meet next Tuesday afternoon at four o'clock at the home N of Mrs. G. Moye Dickinson. A full V attendance of the members is requested. % Sanger's Circus was about one of the greatest fakes that has struck Bamberg recently. It was the same circus which was here two years ago, although under a different name, and about half what it was then, with no menagerie this time. On Saturday, Nov. 11th, at 11 V. A nonniniinn U C1UVK. it. 111., ?I xcacucia xiODW/iauvu will be organized at the Ehrhardt school building for that portion of k? A Colleton and Bamberg counties. The promoters urge all teachers in reach of Ehrhardt to be present. A meeting of the stockholders of the Peoples Building & Loan Association will be held in the town hall this (Thursday) afternoon at four o'clock. Every stockholder is asked to be present, as this meeting is held ,fr. to wind up the affairs of the Associ ation. Prof. J. C. Guilds, Headmaster of y?.' the Carlisle Fitting School at Bamberg, made two fine talks at the Rowesville Methodist church on last Sunday niorning and evening. While aat PnvoDrillA Pmf "Guildn was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Hopkins. Jjpo ?Orangeburg Times and DemocratMr. T. S. Delk, who is now in Punta Gorda, Fla., sends a money order for The Herald and says: "I think it is the most newsy paper in the South, and gives me the news from home and lets me hear from my folks." Mr. Delk is a brother of .Mr. D. J. Delk, of this city, and he spent most of last year in Bamberg. Hon. Jas. P. Byrnes, congressman from the second district, and D. D. G. C. of this district for the Knights of t Pythias, will deliver an address on Pythianism at Olar next Monday ' evening, the 13th, under the auspices of Olar lodge. The address free, and all Knights and the public generally are cordially invited to be present. The carnival which was here last week did not do a rushing business, and we are glad to see that our peonlo nrft tint -waRtine so much money Bjjgf on the class of shows seen at such SJ - attractions. At one time a carnival jifev in Bamberg was demoralizing, but that day is past. We have no idea that the shows here last week did more than pay expenses, if so much. Qur good friend, Mr. H. W. Chitty writes us as follows: "I will be at Bamberg when court convenes and will renew my subscription, for it is the best county paper I ever saw. Long live The Herald and its editor." We trust our friend will forgive us for publishing this, as he did not write for publication, but we are proud enough of his good opinion to want other people to know it. If you have made up your mind to live in this town-, then stand up for it, and if you know positively no good, then silence is golden. Do all you can to help along every man ? who is engaged in legitimate business. Do not send away for everything nice you want and still expect the home men to keep a stock to suit the whim of one or two customers. The success of your fellow g " townsmen will be your success. From the article in this issue from ? the Laurens Advertiser, it appears that Rev. J. H. Walker has been in another church row and the officers of the law had to be called in to restore order. It was a similar case as happened here when the colored Baptist church wanted to get rid of Walker as pastor. He seems to be somewhat of a trouble breeder wherever he goes. He was deposed as pastor in Laurens just as he was here. Barnwell Baptist Association. The executive committee will meet at Bamberg on Thursday, November 16th, to consider applications for aid from State mission board. Churches desiring aid will apply in writing on p that day. Will Begin Sentence. R. Chestnut, who was convicted of manslaughter for killing W. R. Sabin, was taken to the penitentiary Friday to begin his sentence of fifteen years. This would indicate that the appeal in his case has been abandoned, if one was ever contemplated ? ??OnoBfirahnw TimM Afld as icpvi tcu.?V??UDVM?. o - ?? I Democrat.

Dr. Robert Black addressed the school on the lesson Pastor Frier preached at both morning and evening hours. His subject at the morning service was the Sermon on the Mount, bringing out some high ideals and principles of Christian life presented therein in contrast with corrupted teachings and practices of this day. At night his theme was Christ the sure foundation. Those contributing to the orphanage box that the woman's missionary society is getting up, will please take notice to carry same to the residence of Mrs. R. C. Jones, the president of the society. Our offerings next Sunday morning, the first of the new associational year, will be for State missions. Some heroic work must be done this month, or a debt will again hang over our board and hamper its work. New Advertisements. G. Frank Bamberg?Two Car Loads Horses and Mules. C. H. Dorsett?Wanted. J.

Mr. F. M. Stubbs died at his residence on Railroad Avenue 'in this city Tuesday afternoon about 2:30 o'clock, after a short illness. He was taken sick one day last week, but was not seriously ill, but on Friday afternoon he suffered a stroke of paralysis and also developed a case of pneumonia in both lungs. He grew rapidly worse until the end came Tuesday. The body was carried to Sanders ? ? * * - ? a x* o ville, lia., Tuesaay mgnt on tne o o'clock ijrain, for burial. Messrs. John Cooner, Henry F. Bamberg, W. D. Rhoad, and others from here accompanied the remains. Mir. Stubbs was about sixty-five years old, and had made his home in Bamberg for the past few years. He was a resident of Augusta, and a few years ago he was married to Miss Hattie "Bamberg, of this city, and later came here to live. He was a good man and a good citizen, and will be sorely missed in the community. He was a member of tne board of stewards of Trinity Methodist church, and took an active interest in church and Sunday-school work. The bereaved widow has the sympathy of her very many friende in this hour of sorrow. Coming Marriage. Mr.'and Mrs. M. A.

Miss Annye was born and reared in Bamberg, and has many friends hdre who wish her j every happiness. Mr. O'Neal is a fine young man, and is to be con-j gratulated on winning such a worthy woman. Winthrop Daughters. The Bamberg Chapter of the Winthrop Daughters met at the Johnson Hotel last Monday afternoon. The following officers were elected for the coming year: President, Miss Mae Zeigler; Vice President, Miss Hattie Newsom; Secretary, Miss Ollie Lee Dobson; Treasurer, Miss Stella Hair; Gleaner, Miss Mabel Webber. This organization extends all over the country and includes all graduates and former students of Winthrop college. The Bamberg Chapter cordially invites all Winthrop girls to come and join us. The next meeting will be held Friday afternoon with Miss Newsom at the home of Dr. Robert Black. City Council Meeting. A regular monthly meeting of city council was held Ihiesday evening, but mostly routine business was transacted, the paying of bills, etc. An investigation was held as to Night Policeman Moody hitting a young -white man named Sandifer over the head with his club in the restaurant of John Camaras Saturday night a week ago, or rather Sunday morning, as it happened some time after 12 o'clock. Council decided not to discharge the policeman, but will require the restaurant to close hereafter at 10 o'clock every night, as it appears that persons congregate there late at night and there is some drinking going on. Do you wish to increase your business? If so, try a Herald ad. ' * [ ? I Halloween Party. Friday evening, October 27th, in spite of the downpour of rain, 30 of Miss Homer Godbee's friends assembled at her home on Main street to enjoy her delightful Halloween party. The reception hall and drawing room were thrown into one. The hall was lit up with three "jack O' lanterns," and as they were the only light, it gave the hall a very ghost like appearance. From the hall the guests were taken into the drawing room, which was very brilliantly lighted and decorated in the season's colors. Games were played, and during the evening several beautiful selections were gracefully rendered on the piano by Miss Carolee Bradley. To carry out the Color scheme ambrosia and nabiscos were served at 10:30 by little Misses Nell and Eugenia Beard, step-sisters of Miss Godbee. Those present were: Misses Harry Delle Free, Ruth Herndon, Louise Kilgus, Arrie Free, Nelson Wright, Josephine Adams, Thelma * Lewis, Marie Ducker, Amelia Armstrong, Carolee Bradley, Inez Sandifer, Maitland Jennings, Gertrude Smoak, Messrs. Roy Cooner, Francis Bamberg, Frank Ayer, Belton Hair, Rex Stokes, Will Brabham, Winchster Graham, Ralph Simmons, W. D. Rhoad, Sam Rowell, James Fogle, Denmark; Claude and Raymond Smoak, William Hutto. Miscellaneous Shower. Mrs. J. Clarence Moye entertained at a lovely miscellaneous shower Tuesday morning from 11 to 1 o'clock, in honor of Miss Annye Moye. While Fairfax is now the home of the fair bride-elect, Bamberg still claims her, and number of friends and relatives were delighted to accept this invitation in her honor. Mrs. Moye was assisted in receiving her guests by Mrs. F. B. McCrackin, while Misses Alice Kearse and Belle Cooner dispensed fruit nectar to all within a cozy nook in the hallway. A beautiful book of white satin lay open upon a table in which each guest penned a toast for the bride. This book was presided over and the toasts read aloud by Mrs. Cliff Johnson. The rooms were all lovely in their autumn decorations of handsome vases of chrysanthemums and pots of growing ferns while the display of gifts for the admiration of the guests caused a mo^ pleasant diversion for all and an all-absorbing topic of conversation. Exquisite pieces of cut elass. daintiest of chinaware, lovely sets of lingerie, silk hose in abundance v and exquisite hand-work of every kind were included in the gifts. Most delightful refreshments were sefved the guests of chocolate cream, fruit and marshmallow cake. The hostess was assisted in serving these by Mrs. G. Moye Dickinson and Mrs. W. P. Jones.

We notice by the daily papers t^at the governor has paroled during good behavior Charles Zissett,, white, of this county, who was convicted of murder and sentenced to be hanged at the first term of court held in Bamberg county. Zissett killed another white man named Wilson, and the jury said his crime was murder. Later his sentence was commuted to life imprisonment by Governor Ellerbe. Efforts have been made for several years to get Zissett pardoned, but all have failed until now. Zissett was convicted here 1898. Successful Play Coming. Arrangements have at last been completed for the appearance at the Blackville opera house in the near future of George Barr McCutcheon's "Beverly," a dramatization of?Mr. McCutcheon's most pleasing and popular romance, Beverly of Graustark, which was orginally produced and enjoyed a long run at the Studebaker theatre, Chicago.

The Branchville Journal says the Southern Railway is preparing to erect a $10,000 coal chute and storage plant there, the timber and other material being unloaded at the site of the new structure this week. The new coal chute will be located at the site of the present plant but the structure will be of much greater capacity tjian the present one. Contractor Deering of the Southern Railway construction staff will be in charge of the work and it is expected that he will begin actual work within a few days as the material will be placed on the ground this week. It is probable that the improvement will be completed within a few weeks. Mr. W. G. Hoffman moved into his handsome new brick residence on New Bridge street Tuesday. Mr. J. J. Smoak will occupy the residenoe vacated by Mr. Hoffman. Court Next Week. There are not many prisoners in jail to be tried next week at court. The Langford murder case, transferred here from Hampton county, is to be tried, and some of the witnesses are in jail here. There is also a white man in jail, charged with rob bing a negro woman at Denmark some time ago. There is not a single murder case to be tried for this county, and not very many criminal cases. The trial of criminal cases will not consume much time, aside from the. Langford case, which will no doubt take several days. It will likely be tried first next Monday. The civil side of the court is full, and no doubt court will consume all of the two weeks allotted. NOTICE OF SALE. State of South Carolina?County of Bamberg?In Court of Common Pleas. Carrie E.
