A small fire did somq damage on

occupied by Mr. B. F. Folk at the rear '
of the Bamberg Banking Co. building.
The fire evidently caught from
the chimney. It was discovered a

to extinguish the fire, it demonstrated
the fact that the new fire team
is on the job. ,

are. preparing to plant castor beans :
this spring. The government has
sent out the appeal to plant thist>ean, j
from which castor oil is manufactur- i

liberty motors on airplanes. A guar- i
anteed price of $3.00 per bushel has <
been offered by the government, and
as it is said these beans grow fine

pended until after the 6:37 mail is distributed.
The force likes to be !
accommodating, but is very busy after
the windows are closed dispatch- '
ing mail, and^it is very annoying to
be interrupted by raps on the wini

% DEATH OF MR. J. F. KILGUS.
iVeil Known Citizen of Bamberg Passed
Away Monday Morning.
.Monday morning, after an illness
of many months, Mr. J. F. Kilgus, in
point of residence one of the city's
oldest citizens, died at his home here
on New Bridge street. Mr. Kilgus
had been ill for two or three years,
but for the past several months had
been in a critical condition, and his
life was despaired of weeks ago.
While there was no surprise at his
death, the news caused genuine sorrow
among his numerous friends and
acquaintances, as it remoted from
Bamberg one of its most familiar
characters, a man who knew and was
known by everybody.
The funeral services were conducted
Tuesday morning from the late
residence, and interment took place
at Restland cemetery. Rev. George
P. White, pastor of the Baptist
church, conducted the services in the
presence of a large number of friends
and relatives.
Jacob Frederick Kilgus was born
in Wurtemberg, Germany, in 1865,
and would have been 53 years old
within the next few weeks. With his
parents and brothers and sisters he
came to America ab.out 1880, and liv>d
in Charleston for a few years. They
ifterward lived in New York and Boston
and finally moved to Savanrah,
where Mr. Kilgus resided before moving
to Bamberg twenty-five years ago.
Ho rarno horo as a hakor fnr C!nl.
no was lauuiiai 1 v tvuuwu, was uevei
heard to utter an unpatriatic word
of his adopted lanid, and that his love
and sympathy were with America
cannot be doubted. Quiet, unassuming,
attending strictly to his own
business, he was an exemplary citizen,
and his jovial conversation on
the streets will be remembered for
many years.
Mr. Kilgus was a loyal Knight of
Pythias, and never missed attending
a meeting until his illness prevented
his going out. \|Ie was buried with
Knightly jhonors at the grave.
He is survived by his wife, Mrs.
Mary A. Kilgus, and three children,
as follows: Mr. Charlf*? FranHs Kil
?us, of Latta; Mr. William Frederick
Kilgus, of Bamberg; and Mrs.
Louisa Kilgus $>mith, of Columbia;
and by the following brother and sisters:
Mr. Carl O. Kilgus, of Savannah;
Mrs. C. H. E. Ortman, of Anderson;
Mrs. C. R. Dickson, of Anderson;
and Mrs. A. H. Crawford, of
Lamar, Colo.
D^ath of Mrs. Frank Jones.
Mrs. Mary L. Jones, widow sst the
late Mr. Frank Jones, a valiant soldier
of the, Confederacy, died in this
city at the home of her son, Mr. Ben
Jones, on MondaV morning at the
age of about 71 years. Mrs. Jones
had been afflicted for*?everal years,
and had been almost totally blind
for some time previous to her death.
Mrs. Jones was a woman of many
fine qualities of character, and her
death is a caused grief among a
wide circle of friends, especially
amon? the older residents of the com
munity. Her son, Mr. Ben Jones, is
the only surviving near relative.-Mrs.
Jones was a member of the Baptist
church. The remains were buried at
Restland cemetery Tuesday.

FAILED TO REGISTER.
Clinton Johnson Arrested, Examined
and Sent to Canip.
Clinton Johnson, a young negro
of Denmark, was arrested a few days
ago on the charge of evading the
draft. Johnson was carried before
| the local exemption board, duly registered,
given the physical examination,
accepted, and sent at once to
Camp Jackson as a member of the
Bamberg contingent in the new national
army.
Johnson, it is said, left his home
at Denmark when the time came to
register and went to Barnwell, where
he told the authorities he was under
the draft age. After the registration
and things had quieted down, he
came back home, with the above re^
suit.
William Johnson, another negro,
was also arrested a few days ago.
This Johnson had failed to fill out
his questionnaire, although he was
duly registered. However, he failed
on the physical examination, and
was not, therefore, drafted into the
service.
Under the draft law all parties
j failing to register or fill out ques|
tionnaires after registration, if they
are within the draft age, are to be
immediately arrested and sent to the
training camps.
Bamberg High Loses
Denmark, Feb. 24.?In one of the
most, exciting games played by Denmark
this season Bamberg high
school was defeated by a score of 21
to 14. The game was hard fought
from the beginning to the end, each
team playing in fine style. The following
girls took part in the game:
\ For Denmark: Misses Cecile Hope,
John P. Folk, and later served in the
same capacity for Mr. J: A. Spann
when thfejatter purchased Col. Folk's
bakery. A few years later Mr. Kilgus
purchased the bakery business
from Mr. Spann, and- continued to
operate it until his health compelled
him to retire from active business.
For many months Mr. Kilgus had
known that his illness would be fatal,
but up until he lost consciousness
on Friday before his death he
was cheerful and appeared to be perectly
resigned to his fate. He always
looked on the bright side of life, and
never failed to have a kind word for
everybody he talked with. Mr. Kilgus
was a man of a great many most
commendable traits of character and
he was generally liked by everybody.
Although he was a native born
German, many years ago he secured
naturalization papers. In the delicate
position in which he was placed when
a state of war was declared to exist
between Germany and America, he
acted in a most decorous manner.
While he undoubtedly, and naturally,
had a deep love for his native country,
when the exigency arose calling
forth loyalty to America on behalf
of all its citizens, "Uncle Jake,'.' as
Ruth Folk, Julia Cox, Rachael LeCroy,
Sadelle Cain, Anna Matthews
and Georgia LeCroy; for Bamberg:
Misses N&nnie Faust, Mary Williams,
Evelyn Brabham, Lucile Folk, Rebecca
Dickinson, <Thelma Bruce and Ida
Brabham. The officials of the game
were: Referee, Prof. C. S. Major,
of Carlisle; umpire, Miss Ella May
Martin, of the Bamberg high school.

Death of John GeigOr.
John Geiger is dead. These words
convey to the mind of practically
every man, woman and child, white
and colored in Bamberg, a sad meaning.
Old John was a faithful old
black man?a black man, but who
had a white heart, and who was as
loyal an old man as ever lived.
TTnr?l<* .Tnhn had hppn sink for SfiV
eral weeks. He had been in a critif
cal condition, however, but a few
days. He died on last Friday morning
and his remains were laid to rest
with reverence on Saturday morning
at the Log Bridge colored cemetery,
in the edge of town. Rev. R.
H. Jones, pastor of the white Methodist
church, conducted the burial
services at the grave, in the presence
of an immense crowd of both white
and colored people.
Uncle John Geiger was one of the
old characters of Bamberg. He had
lived here for some forty years; and
for thirty-five years of this time had
been sexton for Trinity Methodist
church. For twenty-seven years he
was porter at the Bamberg Banking
Co. Tn these capacities he was ever
faithful and loyal. During the whole
time of his service at the Methodist
church, it is said that he missed ringing
the bell for all services only
twice up until he was stricken for
the last time.
He camev to , Bamberg from up
about Lexington, ^'here he belonged
during slavery times to the famous
Geiger family. He literally grew up
with Bamberg, and knew and was
known by everybody. Uncle John
was between 75 and 80 years old.
In addition to his jobs at the
church and 'at the bank, he served
many families in town in various capacities.
He knew his place and
stayed in it. He always expressed
himself that the white people were
the best friends of the negro. He
was a thoroughly honorable man, upright,
reliable, ever ready td do a
kindness. In return he was treated
with consideration, and was given
much loving care by his white friends
until he died.
Every time the Methodist church
bell rings fond memories of old Uncle
John will be revived in the minds
of the congregation of that church,
and his familiar pattering about the
bank, of which he considered himself
a part, will be missed every morning
by those who always saw him
there. He was a negro of the old
type. It is sad to see them go, for
they end a generation that will* never
be seen again. There are very
few old slavery negroes left now;
in a few years there will be none.
Peace be to the ashes of Uncle John!
SAW SERVICE AT YPRES.
.
One of 61 Survivors of Canadian Reg- j
iment in I5aml>erg Saturday.
1
Mr. J. A. Doyle, a native Canadian, j
now a traveling salesman, was a |
visitor in Bamberg last Saturday.
Mr. Doyle is a survivor of the second:
battle of Ypres, on the French frojat, (
in which he was dangerously wound-1
ed and sent home. His wounds have!
since healed, but he has not yet j
fully recovered?and never will be,!
for one arm is withered from a shrap- i
nel explosion, although, with the aid;
of skilled surgical attention, he is
able to use the member to a certain
extent.
When Canada called for volunteers
early in the war, Mr. Doyle gave up
his position as traveling salesman
and enlisted. He was soon afterward j
sent with his regiment to France,!
and saw service there for more thanj
two years, in tne secona ipres oai-j
tie, his regiment was almost' com-j
pletely wiped out, there being but;
61 survivors out of the 1,100 in his j
division. He was one of the fortunate
61 who lived through the battle.
This enormous casualty, he said,
was the result of a gas attack by the
enemy, the casualties from rifle shots1
being comparatively few. The ^on^j
coming wave of gas was plainly seen j
some minutes before it reached them,'
but it was then thought to be a fcg. |
He was saved because be wa^ wounded,
falling into a shell crater partly
filled with water. As water neutralized
the gas, he escaped asphyxiation,
though he remembers nothing
about it, only recovering conscious-,
ness two 'days later. A shrapnel shell;
bursting near him shattered his right'
elbow and practically carried awayj
his nose, said Mr. Doyle. He was
placed in one of the hospitals and
given treatment, and the expert manner
in which the wounded are tneat.ed
is clearly shown in his case. One:
cannot easily detect thatj^is nose lias!
been rebuilt, but he asserted this to J
be a fact. With the dangerous wound j
h? received in his elbow, a few years1
ago the arm would have been arapu-;
tated. Instead, a false joint-was
inserted, and, although the arm is
withered somewhat, it is of considerable
use to its owner.
Mr. Doyle talks in a most interesting
manner of his experiences,
and his stories of trench life were
listened to with the greatest attention.
The trenches, he said, are always
filled with more or less water
and mud. One goes on duty for fortyeight
hours, and then is given seventy-two
hours off, during which time
the soldiers may retire to the camps
in the rear, although he said that
it was quite a job to get to the
camps, which were often six of seven
miles distant, and it is frequently
very hard to make the trip through
the communicating trenches. He now
has five brot^rs doing service with
the Canadian forces at the front.
Although he describes the war as
a terrible thing, he is not at all
gloomy, about it, and seems to take
his wounds as a matter of course.
He says that Canada cares well' for
her wounded, and he could live -on
his pension if he cared to do so, but
as soon as ne couia ne went DacK to
his old job.
Ahl-Brabham.
Mr. Joe Frank Brabham and Miss
Corrie M. Ahl surprised their many
friends last Thursday by getting married.
The ceremony was performed
in the presence of only a few intimate
relatives at the Citadel Square
Baptist church parsonage, Charleston,
by the Rev. C. C. Coleman, D.
D. Mr. and Mrs. Brabham are now
residing in the home Mr. Brabham
recently purchased from Mr. H. Wick
Johnson, on Railroad avenue, this
city.
The bride is well known in Bamberg,
having been a frequent visitor
here, and she has numerous friends
already in the city, who are glad to
welcome her here. She is a young
lady of many charms. Mr. Brabham
is a prominent farmer and business
man of Bamberg. The couple are
now receiving the congratulations and
best wishes of their host of friends.
Completing the Ehrhai^dt Road.
The new road from Ehrhardt to
Bamberg has been almost completed,
and will soon be brought to Bamberg.
The chain gang, which has been on
this road for some months past, was
moved a few days ago to near Denmarrk,
where there was some urgent
repair work to be done. As soon as
this work is completed, which will
be only a matter of a week or so, the
gang will be moved to the Hunter's
Chapel road, which will be worked
next. At that time the Ehrhardt
road will be completed. There remains
only about one mile of this
mad tn ho worked before comnle
tion. Those who have been over the'
Ehrhardt road say it is a fine highway.
This road is a much needed
artery of traffic between this city
and Ehrhardt, and Supervisor McMillan
and the county commissioners
are being congratulated upon this
good piece of work.

COLORED MEN LEAVE. 1
4
Xinety-one Colored Soldiers IxM't For
Camp Jackson Saturday.
Saturday morning ninety-one colored
drafted men, from class one, ;
left Bamberg for Camp Jackson over
the Southern railway. Two coaches
had been placed on the siding the
day before for the accommodation
ofi the men, and they were placed
aboard the cafs previous to the arrival
of the 8:43 train, which coupled
on the cars on passing through. An
immense crowd of white and colored
people were out to the side track
to see tnem on. mere must nave
been at least a thousand colored people
in the throng.
The men, a list of whom was published
in last week's issue of The
Herald, seemed to be not at all displeased
by leaving home, and they
departed singing songs and shouting
merry farewells to their friends and
relatjves^ 'and the only tears seen
were on the eyes of those left behind.
The spirit of the men seemed to
be reflected in what one of them said.
Upon being asked if he minded going,
he said that he did, but that somebody
had to go, and he was going to
give the best he had, and fully expected
to come back kalive and well.
Incidentally he added that 'he was
\going to kill as.many Germans as he
could, and he appeared to be in
deadly earnest about it.
The men assembled in Bamberg
Friday aft.ernoon, about 100 strong;
o? rather 100 were summoned to re
port. Some of them did not have to
go, being on hand as substitutes. A
few of the ninety-one failed to show
up for one cause or another, and
these vacancies were filled by sub!
stitutes.
While in Bamberg Friday night,
they were given meals and lodging,
tickets being provided and given
4hem. This matter was in charge of
Arthur Nimmons and some other colored
men.
The colored 'men have shouldered
.iheir responsibility in the war in a
! most commendable manner, and if
there is any feeling of resentment or
unwillingness on their -part, it certainly
is not evident. That every
one of them will make a good soldier
there is no doubt, and everybody
expects the Bamberg colored
drafted men to come out with flying
colors. .
Pythian Drafted and I?nlisted Men.
A roll of honor has been secured
by the local Knights of Pythias lodge
to be framed and hung in the lodge
room. This roll of honor is to contain
the names of all the members
of the lodge who have enlisted in the
se ^ice of their country, or who nave
be?m drafted into tl\e service. A
lar^e number of Pythians ha'Te already
entered'the service, and doubtless
the lodge w-ill be represented by
many more. \ '
At a recent convention of the lodge
it was voted that the'lodge will pay
the membership dues of all drafted
and enlisted men while they are in
the service. This applies to both
officers and privates; this being a recognition
of their patriotic service to
the country.
LainJvilgus.
Mr. Charles F. Kilgus, son of Mrs.
J. F. Kilgus, of Bamberg, was on last
Saturday married to Miss Ioma Lain
at Latta, S. C. The marria^ was a
very quiet affair, only a few very intimate
relatives of the bride being
present. Mr. and Mrs. Kilgus left
immediately after the ceremony for
Bamberg, being called here on account
of the serious condition of Mr.
Kilgus's-father, who died the Monday
following. Mr. Kilgus has been
teaching school at Latta for some
time past. He has many friends in
Bamberg, having lived' here all his
life up until a few years ago. Mrs.
Kilgus is a most attractive young 1
lady, and is very popular among a
wide circle of acquaintances in her
community.
Negro Killed; Accident Claimed.
Coroner Zeigler was called to Ehrhardt
Tuesday to hold an inquest ov- ,
er the dead body of John C. Allen, a
young negro, who was shot and killed
with a .32 pistol by Henry Counts, .
another negro. It is claimed that
the killing was accidental. From the
evidence, it^ppears that the negroes
were at a party at the home of M. E.
Sanders on the place of Mr. George
T7 A 11am ....... ..am..
AIICU \\<a& veijr gcctii)
and the other negroes were teasing
him, and in order to carry the joke
further, it is said, Counts pointed
a pistoj at him, saying if he didn't
look out he would be shot, and the
pistol was- in some way discharged.
It is said that there had been no row
and no hard feelings. The testimony
in the case had not been filed yesterday
morning and a copy could not be
secured. Counts came to Bamberg
and surrendered and is now in the
county jay. j

FEED BARN DESTROYED BY FIRE *S|
Al>ont $4,000 Damage.?Several lies- J
idences Have Narrow Escai>e. I
What came near being a most disastrous
conflagration occurred Sunday
afternoon when a feed barn at
the sales stables 'of Mr. G. Frank
Bamberg was totally destroyed by ^
fire. The loss was Monday estimated
at something like $4,000, which was
only partially covered by insurance.
Several nearby residences were
saved from the flames only by the
hardest kind of work on the* part of
the fire department and others who
volunteered and gave valuable assistance.
The residence occupied by
Mr. D. A. Reid was damaged to a
small extent, and the residence of W
Mr. J. B. Brickie was in great dan- 3
ger, as were also other residences
nearby in the path of the high wind ?
which was blowing at the time. i
The fire was discovered about 3 ]
o'clock in the barn at the rear of the
sales stables by Mr. D. A. Reid, who j
lives within a few yards of the rear '
of the barn. Mr. Reitl gave the alaijm
of fire, and within a Temarkably
short space of time the fire truck,
with a quantity of hose, was on the
scene. The fire department was
quickly assembled and they began
' 1 J
the fight which resulted in confining
the'flames to the barn, or rather prevented
the burning of the residences
of Messrs. Brickie and Reid.
All of the household effects in
these latter homes were quickly demoted,
as it appeared to be a matter ' v
of impossibilty to save them. . Mr.
Reid's home did catch on fire sever"4
al times, but the good work of the
firemen prevented great damage, and .
a steady stream of water on Mr.
Brickie's home prevented it from
burning.
0
The origin of the fire i$ not known,
but within three or four minutes af- .
ter the blaze was first seen the whole 2
barn was a roaring furnace. The
firemen could not approach the barn
near enough to do anything toward , 1
Baving it. "
. The barn contained a large quantity
of feedstuffs, including corn, hay
and ground feed, l.o the value of . ; ?.
nearly $2,000. All of this was practically
a complete loss. The barn
Itself was not very valuable, as it
was only an old frame structure. A
feed grinding mill and a large gasoline
engine were in *he building, f
The- feed -machine is probably a total
loss, but the damage to the large
engine cannotx be stated. While it'
appears intact, the intense heat probably
caused serious damage. *
Messrs. Brickie and Reid sustained
considerable damage from breakage
in the hasty removal of furniture, x
but suffered no actual damage irom
fire. The residences* of Messrs. LaVerne
Thomas and Harry Murphy,
on the othfer side of the street, were
in imminent danger, but the further
spread of the fire was prevented by .
saving the homes of Messrs. Reid and
Brickie.
Bamberg's fire department.did the
best piece of work that has been seen ^
in a long time. The organization
proved its actual worth on this occasion,
and under the leadership of
Mr. W. D. Rhoad, waged a successful *
fight against a fire that threatened
to menace much property. The fire
team was given much assistance by
a number of others who did volunteer
service.
CARD OF THAXKS.
Mrs. J. F. Kilgus and children wish
to take this method of expressing
their heartfelt and sincere thanks for <
the many kindnesses to them during
the long illness and after the death ,\
of their husband and father.
