How Mines are Laid and Fired.
One of the ways in which the bel?erent
nations lay mines in har>rs
and other waters is described in
ie July Popular Mechanics Magane.
On one deck of a vessel are
veral narrow tracks supporting
ie mines, each of which is mounted
1 wheels. Each mine is in turn
lied to the stern and, by means of
ecial launching tracks, is dropped
to the sea without tilting. A mine
' the character described is made
? of three parts: A spherical floatg
chamber containing the explosive,
c.; an anchor chamber which is
nnected with the former by a cae,
and a weighted sounding line,
tie length of the lat'ter is equal to
Le depth at which the mine is to
)at. When the <md of the sounding
ae strikes bottom the lessening of
s Dull throws a pawl which pre
mts the drum in the anchor cham3r
from paying out more cable to
te sphere. Consequently the latter
drawn under water to a depth
lual to the length of the sounding
ne, as the anchor chamber settles
> the bottom. A page illustration
l the July Popular Mechanics^Iagane
depicts graphically this method
' mine laying.
HUMP OX FISH A MYSTERY.
ddity Develops Years After Planting
in Oregon Lake.
What put the miniature camel-like
umps on the fish of Rock Creek
ike is the question that Ellert El>rtson,
Rock Creek rancher, is putng
up to State Biologist Finlev.
Mr. Ellertson planted 5,000 Lake
[ichigan trout in the lake many
Bars ago, and until this year they
lowed no difference from others of
leir specie. Recently, however,
nail humps just behind the first
ack fin were seen on many of them.
; is not believed to be disease, and
le size and the flavor of the trout
0 not seem to be impaired.
There is no possibility of a cross
ith any other breed, because noth1
g but the Lake Michigan trout have
een planted in the lake, which was
riginally devoid of fish.?Baker,

REUNION OF CO. G. i
Old Soldiers Held Meeting at Bet liesda
Church.
i
The fixed day for the annual re- <
union of Co. G, 1st S. C. infantry, is
the last Thursday in July, but due to
the schedule of State campaign meeting
held at the Court house on that
day the date for the reunion was
changed for the time being till one
week later, which fell on August 3.
The morning dawned, but old Sol
was in complete hiding. This did 1
did not prevent the great throngs
from sailing o'er the various public s
highways, leading to the beautiful
grounds of Bethesda Baptist church,
"the home of Co. G reunions."
'Tis here where the old and young,
r 't
rich and poor, the pretty and less so,
the educated and illiterate, the en- \
couraged and discouraged and the <
people of various walks of life with J
their vicec-versa of Bamberg county 1
and many visitors, gather annually all .
with one cause, guided by one
thought and filled withNone intention?that
of reverence for the gray (
headed survivors of Co. G, and they <
are glad to have any other soldier of ]
the 60's present. By the time the J
church and grounds was about filled, .
old Sol commenced to play hide-andseek
with mother earth, then lit
shone out brightest upon the scene.
An interesting programme was ren- (
dered as follows: i
Songs by choir?"The Little Brown
Church," and "He is Able to Deliver
Thee." (
- Reunion called to order by Chair- i
man J. B. Hunter. 1
Song, Doxology, by audience, '
standing.
Scripture reading, from 6th chap- <
ter of Acts of Apostles, followed by !
prayer by Rev. C. E. Walker.
Song by choir?"God Take Care of
You."
Welcome address, by Mr. C. W. [
Folk. '
Response to welcome, by J. F. Carter,
Esq., in which he paid homage
to the history of Bethesda church, appealed
to the patriotism of the juvenile
age, impressed the unity of
the South and North and threw
flowered language at our great Wilson,
using the untiring zeal and unbending
stability of the Confederate
soldier during the dark times of the 1
60's as incentives leading to present
conditions.
Song by choir?"The Song of the 11
Soldier."
Roll call of Co. G, by Capt. M. O.
Kinard, with an answer of ten pres- ,
ent, followed by "When the Roll is :
Called Up Yonder," by audience ]
standing. 1
Reading of minutes of meeting of
1915, by secretary, which was accepted
and placed on record.
Address by Rev. E. 0. Watson, (
subject: "Rebuilding of the Great i
Southland." This talented gentleman
showed himself as he is. He
spoke fluently of the motherhood
and fatherhood 'of today and the <
cause of the many occasions of large
gatherings of soldiers. Laid stress
on the value of history to aid character
building and how loving and
forgiving strengthens one's life and
sweetens it for eternity. He said:
"The North was brave, j
The South was braver; i
The North thought,
The South knew"
during those trying times, and the 1
greatest general and greatest char- j
acter of the South was R. E. Lee. <
He urged reunions as long as a survivor
is living, then comemoration by
Daughters of the Confederacy.
Song by choir?"Song of Victory." 1
Standing vote of thanks by au- ]
dience to speaker Watson. ]
Talks by Veterans J. C. Copeland .
and Levi ("Kite") Folk, also I. W..
Rentz. Veteran Folk said he was
I
married while on a furlough home
during the war, something over fifty
three years ago and his bride is still

Roll call, by "Uncle Jim" Zeigler,"
of Co. H from memory.
Song by choir during which a collection
was taken by Misses Doris
Folk and Connie Carter and Capt.
M. O. Kinard, the amount collected
being $10.95. A bill was presented (
the reunion by Mr. J. R. Norris for a
table for the grounds, costing $2.40,
he giving the 40 cents to the reunion.
The treasurer paid the $2.00. A
token of $2.00, with the love of the
reunion, was sent Comrade Bessinger
at Olar, which leaves $6.95 in
the treasury.
An essay of tribute' was read to
soldiers by the secretary, which was
asked by veterans to be placed on
the minutes.
Song?"God Be With You," by
audience, during which a hearty handshake
was given the boys of the
60's. There were 34 of these special
guests present and truly 'twas one of
the pleasantest of all the reunions.
The meeting closed, with benediction
by Rev. E. O. Watson, to meet
at Bethesda the last Thursday in
July, 1917.
