We have always heard of the ox the ditch, and while we've never seen <*ie in such a predicament, a good many people on Friday saw a mule in the ditch. One of the Standard Oil company's mules fell through a man-hole in the big drain on Elm street, while the oil wagon was crossing. It was found necessary, to get the mule out, to dig out a pathway and knock down the brick wall. The mule did not sustain much damage. Prof. S. A. Merchant has tendered his resignation as a member of the faculty of Carlisle school to accept a place on the faculty of Wofford Fitting school, Spartanburg. Prof, and .Mrs. Merchant left for Spartanburg this week. Prof. Merchant has been connected with Carlisle for several years, and his many friends in the city regret that he is leaving. The best wishes of many friends accompany them to their new home.

The altar before which the . couple stood was brilliantly lighted and ornamented with a pretty arrangement of flowers. Reverend Godfrey W. Barney performed the ceremony in the presence of near friends and relatives. The bride looked beautiful in a gown of duchess lace and chiffon fashioned over white satin, the bodice being embroidered in seed pearls. Her veil was of white tulle and she carried a shower bouquet of bride roses and -lilies of the valley. Miss Louise Cavanaugh attended as maid of honor. Captain Leslie G.

Call. Repairing- Baptist Church. The damage resulting from a stroke of lighting to the Baptist church several weeks ago is now being repaired. Mr. C. F. Eaves is overseeing the wofk. Lightning set f.re to the steeple of the church, and the woodwork was completely burned away, it was decided by the church c. few weeks ago not to replace the steeple, but to build, instead, a belfry tower. This will alter the appearance of the church somewhat, and it is believed that the building will present a more modern appearance by this change. The work will be completed within the next few weeks.

Aver, a former citizen of Bamberg county, died at his home in Florence last Thursday, very suddenly. Mr. Ayer was a newspaper man of considerable note in this State. He was born in this county, and was related to a number of families in this city and vicinity. The following dispatch from Florence in the News and Courier of last Thursday contained the intelligence of the death of Mr. Ayer: "It was a severe shock to all Florpnce tonieht when the sad news pass ed out from the home of Hartwell Moore Ayer, editor of the Florence Daily Times, that the summons had come to him suddenly and without a moment's warning, to lay down his pen forever, and to come up higher and rest from his labors. Mr. Ayer had been at his office all day in connection with his duties as editor and publisher of his paper, and had only j reached home a few moments prior to being stricken. He had been inoculated yesterday against typhoid and his devoted wife had just asked how the treatment was serving him." He attempted to reply, and in a halfdazed manner dropped over in the chair, in which he sat beside the fire, knd without being able to speak more, passed away. "Hartwell Moore Ayer was a son of the late Gen. Lewis Malone Ayer, of old Barnwell county. He was born the class of 1887. He later went into forty-nine years old last January. He was educated in the common schools of Barnwell county and under the tutorship of his learned father. "He attended the South Qarolina College, from which he graduated in the class of 1897. He later went into ? ? ~ ?l- ??>/l fAr o timo was 116wsyauer wui?\, auu iui a. muv connected with the Charleston World, later with the News and Courier, and then, coming to Florence, purchased the old Florence Times from Dr. C. H. Prince, the then owner. He continued the pulication of this paper for several years until he organized and became the founder of the present Charleston Evening Post. Later he returned to Florence and resumed the editorship of the Florence Times and the Florence Daily Times. He built what is known as the Times building in West Evans street, which he recently sold to J. M. O'Dowd. He was widely known as an enthusiastic newspaper man and loved his work. He was devoted'to his family and to Florence, his adopted fyome. "Mr. Ayer was a great lover of the military, and was for a time captain of the Calhoun Light Infantry, the local military organization. He believed in education and was a worker in all branches that tended that way. He was a member of the Florence City School Board of Commissioners and has done valued service. He served Florence county as a member of the legislature in 1908-1912 and was a faithful representative of the people. He was married to Miss Cornelia Walter Smith, of Charleston, and to this union several children of whnm with Mrs. WCIO UU1U, ui v ut. .. , Ayer, survive, as follows: Misses Elzabeth, Cornelia and Verner Ayer, of Florence; Mr. Banks Ayer, of Pen^ sacola, Fla., who is in the aviation corps, and Master Lewis Ayer, of this city. Besides these Mr. Ayer is survived by his mother, now Mrs. J. W. Hamilton, of St. Paul, Mipn., and two sisters, Mrs. J. R. Vandiver, of Anderson, and Mrs. Knut Okerberg, of Munich," Germany." ^ Killed With Lightwood Limb. William Brabham was struck on the head with a lightwood limb last Sunday in a dispute at a negro church just over the line in Colleton county by Lucius Jones. Both were negroes. Brabham lived in Bamberg county and died at his home Monday night. The inquest was held Tuesday, the jury finding that death resulted from the blow on the 'head Sunday, and that Jones was the slayer. The skull was fractured, causing a pressure on the brain. Only one witness, James Ealey, testified. He was a witness to the affair. His testimony follows: "The boy walked up to him and ' * " A A J rin i/1 he took off nis nai 10 III 111 cLii LI saiu 'Hey,' and Lucius turned around and took his off and handed Lucius his hat back and Lucius handed William his hat back. Th.it time Lucius said he was tired of niggers snatching off his hat, * * * and then William asked him what he was going to do to stop it, and he said he would show him what he-would do. Then I said to them: 'Both of you hush up and not have any of it,' and at that time Lucius made an oath; said he was going home and get a gun and blow his brains out, and went on, got a mule and hitched up. William walked over to him after having hitched up and William said: 'Say, here, are you going home after the-gun to kill me for that?' Lucius said: T will show you when I come back.' When he started William laid his hands on the lines and said: 'Say, here, do you mean that?' That time Lucius said: 'I am tired of you following me up,' and made an oath and that time he hit him with a limb about 15 inches long and would have hit again if I had not held him." "Nothing But the Truth" was booked to appear at Greenville, but on account of the fact that the theatre at that place has not been completed, it was changed to Orangeburg for appearance Friday, Sept. 21. It is one of the best attractions of the season.?adv. Frank Kirkland, Bamberg. D. K. Griffith, Bamberg. Cleo Barnes Branchville. Buist Dickinson, Olar. Lonnie Toomer, Bamberg. Isado Reed, Lees. J. L.

Bid well, also of Atlanta, where division headquartcis for Red Cross will be located. Both 1 - " 1 i j of tnese men are vuiumauug ^ou j services without pay for the period isii i of the war. ^ Mr. Peel is one of the most prominent men in the South. He will have charge of the Red Cross activi ties in his division, which includes * the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida and Tennessee east of the L. and N. railroad. . V ? Further plans of the Red Cross for cooperating with public health authorities for safeguard civilian populations in4the areas surrounding thenational army cantonments were announced by the Red Cross war coun- 4 cil. The Red Cross has already undertaken to aid public health ad- \ thorities at Columbia in stamping out out mosquitoes and thus lessen the danger of malaria in and around the army cantonment. " ^ The Ford Motor Company, of Detrbit has presented the American /?$ Red Cross with a gift of $500,000. * The gift is in the form of a credit on Ford factories for half million dollars worth of autos, ambulances, I parts, etc., as the Red Cross may , designate. With the responsibilities assumed by the Red Cross in France, for the support of American ambu- . J j lances, the Ford gift is particularly i valuable. Despite the large number j of ambulances in service on tbe West( ern front many more are needed. A j kitchen trailer designed by the New | York county chapter Red Cross, is j now being furnished in large numbers to ambulance companies now in. training at Allentown, Pa.
