? There was a considerable increase
in Christmas jags this year over
last, despite the fact that the entire
country is legally dry. The local
drunks were caused, it is said, alx
most, if not entirely by home-made
blind tiger liquor, of which there appears
to be an abundance around
Bamberg at all times.

Drought Holds Up Road Work.
The contracting company constructing
the Bamberg county link
of the Columbia-Savannah highway
has almost completed the road
through the county. It is stated that
all remaining work can be done in
about two weeks, but the drought
is interfering with the completion of
the road, and very little can now be
done until there is r: . The ground
is so hard that it is practically impossible
to operate the road mach

mostly of shaping the road,
elear'ng ditches, etc., and this work
will be speed'ly completed within a
few days after the ground becomes
moist enough to permit of using the
machines.

ACCIDENTAL SHOT KILLS.
Hufas Rlioad Victim of Sad Accident
Saturday.
Probably the saddest incident to
mar the Christmas season in Bamberg
county occurred at the home of
Mr. Daniel B. Rhoad in th? Hunter's
Chapel section early Saturday morning.
and resulted in the untimely
death of one of our bright young
men of robust constitution and who
had the prospects of a splendid future
to devote to his family and his
community. Mr. Rufus Rhoad, a
young man about 17 years old, the
son of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel B. Rhoad,
had been hunting and after return
ing home with his gun had sat down
on the steps. He was amusing his
'"" ' " -x? ?: * v. <-,f V?qi? Phricf
ll Hit} aibltJI W 1 tUL UL1C VI uv-l ^ ?v?"
mas toys when the gun slipped from
him and slid down the steps, the barrel
pointing straight up under hiu..
The hammer of the gun struck the
edge of the steps and in some manner
the gun was thus discharged.
The load penetrated a part of one
of the steps and young Mr. Rhoad was
at such close range that the entire
load including a portion of,the wadding
and some splinters entered his
body plowing up into the stomach and
making a most horrible wound. Medical
aid was of course summoned as
quickly as possible and the young
man was rushed to Bamberg and carried
to a hospital in Charleston on
the evening train. Everything possible
was done and an operation performed
in a futile effort to save his
life. But despite his youth and
splendid vitality the wound was too
severe, and Mr. Rhoad passed away
Tuesday morning at the hospital in
Charleston. He and his family had a
number of friends, both old and
young, who deeply deplore this terrible
accident which cost the life of
a fine boy, and the sympathy of the
entire community goes out to them.

BRIDE-ELECT IN HOSPITAL.
Faints When Informed She Is Not
Wanted.
New York, Dec. 27.?Dr. William
G. Vermilye and Miss Ruth M. Keeney,
who came today from Monson,
Mass., to learn why the physician
had failed to appear on Christmas
day to marry her, are both patients
tonight in the Cumberland Street
Hospital in Brooklyn. Miss Keeney
fainted and was removed to the woman's
ward at the institution when
informed that Dr. Vermilye would
not see her. The doctor has been a
patient since Thursday evening.
Earlier in the day Dr. Vermilye
stated that "upon my return to the
United States I was met with an invitation
to my own wedding." He
added that he was "not hiding from
anyone" and had nothing more to
say.
Miss Keeney was accompanied by
her father, George Keeney, and a
young couple. Mr. Keeney appeared
bewildered by the sitaution and when
asked about Dr. Vermilye's statement
said that the doctor was "a man of
very strong mind and great ability
and it would be impossible for any
woman to force herself upon him."
His daughter had received many presents
from the doctor, he added.
"All we can do now is wait," Mr.
Keeney continued. "We will not
take any action at all for the present."

GAINS FREEDOM ON RECORD.
Enlisted in Marine Corps Under Assumed
Name.
Boston, Dec. 26.?How Arthur E.
Abhott, long wanted as a fugitive
from justice for the theft of $15,000
from the Federal Trust Company,
of this city, enlisted in the
marines and as Sergeant William H.
Haskell was cited for brilliant war
service, wras disclosed today when it
? ?VioH hoon wot
Was aiinuuuccu mat tic ^,ww
free on probation by the district attorney
and that he had received the
Croix de Guerre officially under his
right name.
Abbott, who was employed as a
bank bookkeeper at $20 a week, disappeared
in the fall of 1917 after
the bank losses became known, and
it was learned that he had been living
like a man of wealth and leisure
away from his family. He evaded a
nation-wide search and enlisted in
the marine corps at New Orleans as
Haskell and went overseas with the
Sixth regiment. He was one cf the
forty-four men left of the famous
1,300 marines who went through the
Argonne. He was cited for bravery
after capturing a machine gun and
nine prisoners near Vierzya on July
19, 1918.
After receiving an honorable discharge
last January he immediately
reenlisted again as Haskell. He was
detailed aboard the United - States
ship Dolphin in July and ordered to
Portsmouth, N. H., where he was
recognized and arrested. District Attorney
Palletier, of Boston, on learning
of his service record, ordered his
release on probation. He was rearrested
by the Navy Department,
charged with enlisting under a false
name, but his commanding officer,
Capt. John Grady, of the gunboat
Dolphin, effected his release in a
short time and a few days later decorated
him as Arthur Abbott with the
Croix de Guerre before the ship's
crew and a marine detail drawn up
at attention.

NEW COUNTERFEIT FOUND.
Photographic Copy of $100 Federal
Reserve Note.
Washington, Dec. 28.?Detection
of a new counterfeit of the $100 note
of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta,
Ga., is announced by W. H.
Moran, chief of the secret service division
of the Treasury Department.
It is a photographic counterfeit on
two pieces of paper, between which
silk threads have been distributed,
j It is not a deceptive bill, Mr. Moran
j says. The paper is very brittle and
tears easily. Some blue coloring has
been applied to the numbers and seal
on the face of the note and green Ink
or water color on the back, but the
original photograph can eas'ly be
seen through these colors. The counterfeits
all bear No. F86203-A and
the check letter is C. The note bears
the portrait of Franklin and the signature
of W. G. McAdoo, Secretary of
the Treasury, and John Burke, Treasurer
of the United States.

GO WITH PULLMAN CO.
Bamberg Colored Barbers Secure Positions
on Trains.
Matthew Stewart, who for many
years has been a barber in this city,
moved this week to Columbia, where
he has a temporary position as a barber
in a Main street shop. Within
the next few weeks Matthew expects
to go into the Pullman car service as
a porter. He has sold his house and
lot in this city to Mrs. J. M. Kinsey,
and has bought a res:dence in Columbia,
where his family will reside and
which will be his headquarters.
Matthew Stewart has been connected
with Arthur Nimmons's barber
shop in Bamberg for 23 years. He
started in as a bootblack and when he
had learned the barber trade he operated
one of the chairs in the shop.
Being absolutely straight and reliable,
Stewart posseses the entire confidence
of the white people as well as
members of his own race, and the
customers of the shop and his white
friends generally regret very much
that he has left town. Matthew Is
an upright, honorable cit'zen.
When he applied for a position
with the Pullman company he was
required to furnish white references,
and a representative of the company
was sent here to investigate his character
This representative stated that
he had never before had such satisfactory
references as Stewart had furnished,
and after an interview with
one of the gentlemen whose name
had been referred to the company, he
stated that further investigation was
unnecessary.
Arthur NImmons recently sold his
barber shop here to Mr. E. H. Duncan,
who also owns the other shop in
town. Nimmons has also gone with
the Pullman company, running on a
dining car on the A. C. L. that passes
through Denmark. He will also probably
move from Bamberg, but not in
the near future. These two colored
men, Arthur and Matthew, hove both
accumulated considerable property in
Bamberg. They both fully realize
that the white people are their
friends and they have lived accordingly.
The consequence is they carry
with them on leaving town the best
wishes of their hosts of white friends.
Nimmons and Stewart are the calibre
of men who are a credit to their
race.

THIS STATE LEADS IN DRIVE.
South Carolina Has Largest Percentage
of Oversubscriptions.
South Carolina is lead'ng the entire
South in the Baptist drive for
$75,000,000, according to information
received from general headquarters
at Nashville. Th's State has
oversubscribed her quota by over 35
per cent., which puts the Palmetto
commonwealth ahead of any other
State. Georgia is second with approximately
31 per cent.
All the States with the exception
of four have raised their allotments,
and it is believed these will come
very near reaching their quota before
the work entirely ceases. The
total has passed the $88,000,000
mark and is still climbing.
Arkansas, --Illinois Louisiana and
Missouri have not yet reached their
quotas, but may yet do so.
TRIBUTE TO VEDRINES.
Monument to French Flyer Placed
On Roof.
On the spot where he accompl'shed
one of the most daring feats, a monument
has been erected to Jules
Vedrines, the noted French flier kill
ed a few months ago in an airplane
crash. It was last January that M.
Vedrines demonstrated that an airplane
can be landed in a short distance
by fringing h's plane safely
down upon the small roof of the Lafayette
gallery in Paris, says Kansas
City Star.
It was the first time an aviator
had dared attempt such a landing,
where a misjudgment of a few feet
would have meant death. M. Vedrines's
accomplishment was regarded
as a milestone in aviation development
as well as proof of his own courage
and mastery of h's mach'ne. Now
a marble slab on the roof of Lafayette
gailery stands a tribute to the
flier and his feat.
OFFICER BURNED TO DEATH.
When Barracks at Camp Jackson Are
Consumed by Fire.
Columbia, Dec. 26.?First Lieut.
Charles Poates, of Washington, commander
of the remount station of
Camp Jaikson, was burned to death
at Camp Jackson early Christmas!
morn'ng when the officers' barracks I
in which he stayed was consumed. I
The remains have been placed with
a local undertaking establishment
awaiting burial orders from his relat:ves.
The fire and resultant death
is be'ng investigated by a board of
inquiry and its report will probably
be made public in a few days, the
camp authorities stated. J
GASOLINE TAKES A BATH.
Five Tanks Recovered From Edisto
River None the Worse.
On Christmas day the big gasoline
truck hauling gas for Mr. J. J. Smoak
the local agent of the Gulf Refining
company, while being driven by Mr.
Riley Morris, came very near crashing
through one of the small ai>proach
bridges over the Edisto river
at New bridge, on the Orangeburg
county side of the river. Mr. Morris
was making a trip to Cope with ten
tanks of gas and when the big truck
was on the bridge it suddenly gave
way, and began to sink. It being impossible
to get the truck off the i
bridge with the heavy load, it was 1
necdssary to throw off five tanks
before the truck could be moved.
These five tanks went into the river
lake. The following day men were Hi
sent to the river and succeeded in I
rescuing tne five tanks, all of which 1
were in good order and none the ^
worse for the cold bath. The tank*
are, of course, tightly sealed. |

of the war are often discolored by ^

Cons'der the notably beautiful paintr
ing done by R. McGill Mackall for the

bearing in his arms the limp body of 1
a doughboy, the shirt open at the J
throat, the dusty helmet slipped back I
so that the light, catching its tilted
rim, leaves the faint suggestion of a
halo above the boy's head. A
And the real doughboy, looking at fl
it, will not say: "That's the bunk. He a
musta fell in the battle of Camp Up
