The county chain gang is now in
camp on the Hunter's Chapel road,
near Mr. G. E. Hutto's. Work is being
done on this road.
The cool weather of this week has
been much appreciated, and as the \
weather has cleared up, cotton pick- i
ing is progressing rapidly again. i
On account of the opening at Carlisle
School this (Wednesday) even- 1
ing there will be no prayer meeting e
services at Trinity Methodist church. *
A post office has been establish- j
ed at Edisto. The office is called T
Embree, and was established at the j
instance of the Edisto Lumber Com- s
pany. a
The U. D. C. scholarship commit- I
tee met Sept. 14th and awarded the v
young man's scholarship to Mr. e
Clyde Kearse, of Olar, S. C., and the i:
young lady's ;o Miss Mamie Morris,
of Bamberg.

ed last Friday afternoon at a linen t
cVinwor for Miss Inez Lemacks, and I v
Mrs.H.J.Brabham entertained Tuesday
afternoon of this week with a J
shower for Miss Lemacks. c
The notice of the county treasurer, v
published in another column,is inter- ^
esting to those who believe in educa- a
tion, for it shows that many school e
districts in this county carry a spec- *
ial levy in addition to the three mill v
constitutional tax. What we want s
to see is better school houses in more ^
of the districts. There could be
great improvement along this line in
many districts.
a
Congressman A. F. Lever wishes
to announce that he has secured ?
from the department of agriculture
a number of bulletins on the game
laws for 1913, a summary of the
provisions relating to seasons, export ^
sale, limits, and licenses, and if any
one desires to secure one of these
e
interesting bulletins will drop Representative
Lever a card, he will
gladly see that the same is sent to
their address.
The Bamberg Guards are to be
inspected on Wednesday, October |
Sth. It will be remembered that the
company did not make the showing
the adjutant general thought they
should at the last inspection and u
he recommended that they be mus- c
tered out of the service. However, *
they were given another chance, and ?
if they make good at the approach- r
ing inspection they will remain a a
part of the State militia; if not, they t
will be disbanded. *
f
A press of other matters caused
us to forget to mention in our last
week's issue the death of Rev. S. P. t
Chisolm, which sad event occurred
r
the Saturday before at his home in
the Colston section. Mr. Chisolm
was seventy-odd years old, and leaves ?
v
a widow, a son and daughter. *
He had been a minister and teacher j
for many years, and many persons
whom he trained in early life remember
him with love and affection. He t
had been in bad health for some
time.
The boys and girls have been coming
to town in numbers for the past

day (Wednesday.) Opening exercises
will be held this (Wednesday)
evening, in the school auditorium, to
which the public is cordially invited.
The enrollment so far is much larger
than ever, and more will no doubt
come in the next few days. There
is no question but that the new dor- ?
mitory now being erected will be
easily filled. ]
Get Your Ads. in Early.
Again we beg our advertisers to J
let us have their copy for ads. not
later than Monday afternoon of each 1
week. It is a physical impossibility ?
to give good service when ads. are
brought in Wednesday morning. Last (
week our force set up two half page j
ads. Wednesday morning, besides doing
the other routine work of getting
to press, also setting a number of
small ads., and as we go to press
Wednesday afternoon it can easily c
be seen that we cannot print our
paper on time if ads. come in so late. 1
We want to oblige our customers, ]
and we want all the business we 1
can get. That's what we are here s
for, but there is no reason for ad. (
copy being so late coming in. s
In Honor of Miss Lemacks.
Beautiful in every detail was the
linen shower given by Mrs. J. A.
Williams at her home Friday after10on
in honor of Miss Inez Lemacks.

Xo Routes at Present.
Postmaster Knight recently took
ip the matter of the establishment
if the two additional rural routes
rom the Bamberg office with Congressman
Jas. F. Byrnes, as the
outes were surveyed several months
nriH nothing had been done about
he matter, so far as he knew. Mr.
Syrnes writes that the appropriation
<?r rural routes has been exhausted,
.nd that no more can be established
his year. However, he feels sure
hat he will be able to get these
outes through for us next year. So,
.11 the patrons can do is to possess
heir souls in patience until next
ear, but they can rest assured that
he postmaster and Mr. Byrnes will
:eep right behind the matter and
let the routes just as soon as posible.
There is no question but that
he routes will be established later.

Death of I>r. W. W. Patrick. I
Dr. W. W. Patrick, one of the |
j oldest as well as one of the most j
! highly respected citizens of this comj
munity, died suddenly at his home
last Saturday night, appoplexy being
the cause. Dr. Patrick went out to his
lot about dark to look after his stock,
and not coming back promptly, his
son, .Mr. \V. H. Patrick, went out to
look for him and found him lying
on the ground unconscious, with a
halter in his hand, which he was
going to put on a mule to water the
animal. Physicians were summoned
immediately, but he died in about
half an hour, never' regaining consciousness.
The burial took place at Southend
cemetery Sunday afternoon, the
services being conducted by his pastor,
Rev. jW. H. Hodges, of Trinity
Methodist church, where Dr. Patrick
had been a member for a number of <
years. He was assisted by Rev. W.
R. McMillan, pastor of the Baptist
church. The pall-bearers were: Dr.
O. D. Faust, J. M. Grimes, J. H. t
Dixon, H. C. Folk, E. L. Price, and
G. A. Jennings.
Dr. Patrick was born a few miles
below Bamberg, and lived in this
section all of his life. He was seventy-six
years old. His wife was Miss
Elizabeth Geiger, of Lexington county,
who died several years ago. He
leaves one son, Mr. W. H. Patrick.
Dr. Patrick was a confederate veteran,
he having enlisted at the beginning
of the war and serving until
the close. He made a gallant soldier,
and wore a cross of honor, bestowed
by the local chapter of the Daughters
of the Confederacy. He was a
good man and a good citizen. * m

Death of Mr. Monroe Kmard.
Ehrhardt, Sept. 23.?A distress- ^
ing accident occurred in about three
miles of this place on Saturday night
ir which Mr. Monroe Kinard, one of
the finest young men of our community,
lost his life.
Mr. Kinard and his friend, Mr.
Joseph Hiers, both of whom are
engaged in business in Ehrhardt,
left here after business hours Saturday
night, on their wheels, to spend
the night and Sunday at their parents'
homes in the St. Johns community.
Unfortunately they carried in
their pockets each a pistol. They
decided before entering a dark and
lonely wood, through which the
county road that they were traveling
led them, that they would fire
off their guns merely to be shooting.
Mr. Kinard fired several shots and
Mr. Hiers tried to follow suit but =
his gun refused to fire. Whereupon
he unbreeched it, and in doing so it
in some unaccountable way was dis- ^
charged, the load, a 32-caliber,
taking effect in Mr. Kinard's body
just below the heart and passing
through his left lung. Supported r
bv his friend, he walked a short ?
j,
distance in the direction from whence
n
they had come, when they met Mr.
Perry Kinard, a brother of Monroe 0
Kinard, who took the wounded man 1
in his buggy to the nearest neigh- a
bor's, where medical aid was sum- 0
moned. The physician, however, *
thought that there was nothing that *
could be done, and about 1 2 o'clock s
on Sunday he died. Before his v
death he asked that no censure be e
4
I attached to his friend at whose *
h
hands he had been wounded, as the *'
occurrence was entirely accidental.
Mr. Kinard was a quiet, sober, in- 1
dustrious young man, and leaves many
friends to mourn his untimely *
death. T
His bodv was laid to rest at St. 0
Johns church in the presence of a
very large concourse of people, the E
Rev. E. A. McDowell, his pastor, con- 13
ducting the burial exercises.
THREE SHOT DOWN BY BANDITS, d
t
Jewelry Clerks Resists when Told to 0
Throw Up Hands. s
Grand Rapids, Mich., Sept. 18? b
Two robbers with drawn revolvers b
entered the jewelry store of J. J. A
Thompson here early to-night, com- r
manded the clerks to throw up their I
hands, and when they refused, open- h
ed fire. John A. Thompson and Ed. J
Smith fell dead and Paul Townsend *
was probably fatally wounded. The t
bandits escaped. i
The three victims were alone in
the store when the robbers entered, o
Townsend, who was taken to a hos- c
pital, was able to tell the authorities s
only a few words concerning the trag- 3
edy. f
The clerks were placing watches j
and jewels in their cases for the a
night, when the men, masked, enter- E
ed and demanded that Townsend
throw up his hands. Townsend refus- I
ed, tried to grapple with the men \
and was shot down. A bullet pene- c
trated his neck. He believes the
other employees then rushed to his y
assistance and were killed. r
The jewelry store is almost in the e
heart of the business district. Pedestrians
were passing while the robbers t
I were within. One person informed r
the police he heard three shots fired.
Policemen nearby also were attracted
by the shooting, hut the robbers i
fled before they arrived. t
