TAXES MUCH LOWER.
New Citizen of County Says He is
Glad to Be Bambergian.
A gentleman from the lower secI
tion of the county was in the city one
day this week, and told The Herald
how glad he is that he is now a citizen
of Bamberg county. He resides
in one of the sections cut off from
Colleton county recently. He says
he always had a mighty good opinion
of Bamberg, but now that he is a citizen
of the county he is perfectly delighted
with it. He has, of course,
very little criticism to offer against
rti/i mntVioT pnnntv hilt- in the
ma uiu iuwuvi VVVMV,, | ~ ?
matter of taxes, for instance, he has
good reason to feel thankful that he
lives in a county where we pay as
we go. Last year, he said, he paid
approximately $78 in taxes on his
property, which was then in Colleton.
This year he paid his taxes to Treasurer
Jennings in Bamberg, and the
tax on the same property was apI
proximately $52. Bamberg county
paid him a dividend of $26 for being
a citizen.
As a new citizen of the county, this
gentleman is also much gratified to
note the road construction that is
now under way and the construction
that has already been completed.
What is especially pleasing to him is
the fact that the county owes no mon|
ey, but always has good bank balances
to its credit. The Herald, of
course, agreed with him that he is
now a citizen of the best county in
South Carolina.

APPOINTED AUDITOR.
J. G. Black Will Succeed His Father
in Beaufort County.
" ^ ? 1 i-"U ~
J. liary tsiacK, ior several mouuis
superintendent of the local electric
light, water and power plant, has
been appointed by Governor Cooper
as county auditor of Beaufort county
to succeed his father, who died a
few weeks ago. Mr. Black was recommended
for the position by the
Beaufort county delegation to the
general assembly.
Mr. Black will hand in his resignation
as soon as he receives his commission,
but will not leave Bamberg
until his successor as superintendent
of the local plant is secured.
Mr. Black is well known and generally
liked in Bamberg, where he
has resided oft and on for several
years. Formerly he operated the motion
picture show here. The office of
auditor in Beaufort county carries
with it a 'handsome salary, and Mr.
Black is being generally congratulated
upon his appointment, which is
expected to be confirmed in the senate
this week.

Return By Train.
M. G. Cooner, Talbert Padgett and
George Fender returned to Bamberg
Tuesday morning after a very adventurous
"trip to Detroit, where they
went about ten days ago for the purpose
of driving gack to Bamberg some
automobiles for a local dealer. Eddie
Jackson, E. L. Spann and James T.
Burch also went to Detroit with the
party, but upon reaching their destination
Messrs. Jackson and Spann
were so unfortunate as to contract
influenza, and Mr. Burch remained
with them pending their recovery.
Latest word from Detroit indicated
that the young men were recovering
from the attack of influenza, andi
would be able to start on the return
trip in a few days.
Messrs. Cooner, Padgett and 'Fender
started out with cars over a week
ago. They encountered rough weather
and snowstorms on the route, j
and when they had got as far as
Pennsylvania the snow was so deep
that great difficulty was experienced
in making headway. Snowdrifts fifteen
feet in depth were encountered.
At Uniontown, Pa., they decided to
abandon their cars and make for home
via the old reliable. They reached
home Tuesday morning on the early
train. ,
Mitchell Admitted to Bail.
Samuel Mitchell, the 12-year-old
boy who is charged with the killing
of his brother, Edmund Mitchell, a
week or so ago, was released Monday
on bail, bond in the sum of $1,000
being furnished. Mitchell's attorney,
R. P. Bellingfer, Esq., appeared before
Judge I. W. Bowman in Orangeburg
Monday at chambers and presented
the application, which was
granted. Mitchell is alleged to have
stabbed his brother with a knife when
the latter was trying to correct him
after punishment by his mother. The
boy denies that he had any intention
of killing his brother, and says that
Edmund Mitchell fell upon the open
knife.
Large shipment of all kinds of
office and school supplies received
at the Herald Book Store this week.
Extra large line blank books.

Grant, lot near Bamberg for $1.
QUARANTINE IS LIFTED.
Condition of the Epidemic is Considered
Satisfactory.
The quarantine that has been on
in the city for the last two weeks was
lifted Sunday morning. The influenza
condition in the city has improved
to such an extent that the board
of health considered it unnecessary to
continue the quarantine. There are
now very few cases of the disease in
the city, and practically no new cases.
The churches held services Sunday
as usual, and the city schools were
opened on Monday morning to resume
work. Carlisle school, which has continued
its work under quarantine,
raised its quarantine Monday.
The condition of the epidemic
throughout the county is considered

is more or less influenza, and in some
of the rural sections the disease has
a very firm hold, but taken as a whole
the county is comparatively free of
influenza. A good many of the county
schools are still closed, however.

DEATH OF YOUNG WOMAN.
Telephone Operator Succumbs to Attack
of Influenza.
Miss Annie Smoak, a telephone operator
at the local telephone exchange,
died last Friday. Miss Smoak
had been suffering with an attack of
influenza for a week or more, which,
with other complications that developed,
caused her death. The remains
were buried at Springtown church
cemetery Saturday.
Miss Smoak was an orphan girl,
her parents having died some years
ago, and she had made her home
with her aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs.
D. L. Smoak, a few miles from Bam^
berg^ Since last November she has
held a position in the telephone exchange
here. She was 19 years of
age, and was held in great affection
by a large circle of friends and acquaintances.

days- ago she became seriously ill,

she moved to Columbia. She has
many friends in this section who are
grieved by her death.
Snow Sunday Night.
Sunday night about nine o'clock
the first and only snow of the wintei
fell in Bamberg. This fall of fleecj
ice wfis short lived, however, anc
lasted only a few minutes, meltins
almost as fast as it touched the
ground. Howrever, in some places
the snow was in evidence the* nexi
morning.
There has been no snow in Bam
berg for two winters, and as the sea
son is now far spent there is verj
little likelihood of a visit from th<
snow king.
