Brief Items of Interest Throughout ? the Town and County. e Ephraim Parker, one of The Her- c e aid's loyal colored subscribers, presented us with a couple of fine rutag basa turnips last week. o Bamberg is being "put on the ^ map" these days. With the coming | ^ of the big league game here April 5th, Bamberg bids fair to receive a u large measure of good advertising. o Mrs. G. W. Folk requests publication of the following: "I wish to announce through the columns of your valuable paper that the picnic held annually at my home on Good Friday has been discontinued." w From present indications we are ai getting some good work along the ^ lines of selection of seed sweet pota- ^ tes and establishing one variety in fi: the county. Every day I am getting 0] inquiries about pure seed and where ^ to find them.?J. D. Brandon in 3, -Clernson News Notes. fa 1I The county commissioners have . in erected a shed in the rear of the sc county jail for the housing of the uj county road implements and trucks. The shed is large enough to house all \ of the county's rolling stock, and was u] built from an appropriation by the county delegation made for the purpose. Monday was the first day of spring. U The day was warm enough for midspring. The weather sages, however, freely predict cold weather the last of this week, the usual Easter w frost being confidently expected. d? Others say the full moon will bring H frost. Inasmuch as full moon and Easter come about the same time, it re seems frost is bound to appear, yet Js it seems most unlikely at this writ- C( ing ,with the thermometer registering 86 in the shade. ? , M Rev. D. H. Owings, for several years pastor of a field of churches in this county, including Ehrhardt and Hunter's Chapel Baptist churches, ar has accepted the pastorate of the at Mt. Pleasant Baptist church. He ^ moved with his family to Mt. Pleas- er ant a week or two ago to assume ex charge of his new 'field of work. ca Mr. Owings resigned his pastorate st: in this county last fall. His many friends wish him much success and happiness in his new pastorate. ? -b> ? H. WOULD TRAIN IN BAMBERG. Bi 0' Columbia Base Ball Team Inquires of Bamberg's Possibilities. The Bamberg chamber of com- J. merce?which isn't?received a tele- of gram last week from W. Dixon Foster, president of the Columbia base IC ball club, inquiring what proposition, if any, Bamberg would make the club Bi to train in this city.

In view of the widespread interest 11 the part of the depositors and ustomers of the Farmers and Merhants Bank of Ehrhardt, which reentlv went into the hands of receivrs, The Herald requested James H. Iraig, state bank examiner, for a tatement concerning the condition f the bank's assets and liabilities, 'he statement of Mr. Craig, in part, allows: "I would say at the outset that it 'ould be very difficult at this stage f liquidation to state what Kind 01 sttlement the receivers will be able ) make of its outstanding obligaons. "There were a good many large )ans insumciently secured, and a reat many small loans secured about 3 average loans are in banks, upon hich collections could not be made t this time. The bank had paid its ills payable down to a very reasonhie amount, but perhaps this fact ampered them to some extent in nding ready cash to meet the checks c their depositors. "The liquidation of the bank is in le hands of a committe under orsr of the court, who are entirely imiliar with the entire clientage of le bank and with the collateral even i chattel mortgages. It would take >me time for these receivers to wind p the affairs of the bank, but it is ?lieved that in the end they will ake the closest possible collections, i this event, the depositors should itimately be paid off."

Bamberg's newest industry, the ice , ant recently erected by the Cotton 1 company, is now ready for operaDn, and will within the next few * iys be in continuous operation to pply the demands of the city.

Fisher, under whos< supervision the work of malaria con trol was carried on in Bamberg las year, was in the city last week, an< made an inspection of the work here with a view to necessary work o maintenance. Capt. Fisher wen over the city thoroughly, and mappe< out some of the work that will b< necessary to conserve the results ob tained last year. It is understood that the work o maintenance win oe started witnn the next week or so. A specal ta: levy was fixed in the Bamberg drain age district to maintain the mos quito eradication work, and thii fund will be employed this spring an< summer. Previous to Capt. Fisher's visit s representative of the Internationa Health Commission visited Bamberg incognitio and inspected the work making himself known in his officia capacity to only a few of the authorities of the town. In this man ner the official became thoroughl} acquainted with the situation here and it is understood that he mad* some recommendations which will be carried out. He gave the assurance that Bamberg would receive a square deal in every respect, and that his commission would see that the work is properly conserved. On his visit here he interviewed a number o1 residents, and secured their opinions and complaints for the use of the malaria work this year. It is understood that his commission stands ready to give the city some more financial assistance if certain cooperation is given. hi ? . Court Adjourns. The court of common pleas came to a sudden end last Wednesday night, after a session lasting only three days. A number of cases was continued until the next term. WednpsHav niarht the court officials and members of the Bamberg bar journeyed to Edisto river, where his honor, Judge T. J. Mauldin, and the court stenographer, Ernest L. Allen, wer? complimented with one of Bamberg's famous fish, suppers. The case of J. J.

U, I", n Illlf CjUU'i laino v . v/. On March 15 the regular monthly meeting of the Francis Marion Bamberg chapter of the U. D. C. was held at the home of Mrs. G. P. White. Quite a large crowd, was present, and enjoyed the programme. A reading by Mrs. Glenn Cope, a description of a horserace, was so vivid we could almost hear the clatter of hoofs and the cheers of the spectators. A selection, "Spring," from Timrod's poems, read by Miss Gertrude Davis, was in perfect harmony with the season of the year and the decorations of the rooms. Mrs. H. NT. Folk sang a solo which, as always, was a real treat. Mrs. R. C. Jones made a prayer for those members ill and grieving. This prayer, because of its sincerity and faith, surely ascended to the Great White throne. Some dues were collected and a short business session held. It was decided that the chapter would give a birthday party on its anniversary in April. Mrs. B. D. Carter graciously offered the use of her home for this occasion. The chapter hopes to tVn'c offair n rnnst pninvable SUC cess. Mrs. Sallie Owens and Mrs. John Cope were elected delegates to attend the district, convention, which meets in Edgefield in April. Our president, Mrs. J. C. Lewis, will also probably attend. Mrs. White served delicious refreshments of ice cream and cake, and Rev. Mr. White graced the dining room with his presence. He did not indicate by his manner that he had ever heard of a "thorn among so many roses." This was the chap 17? __ WILL PRACTICE HERE. Z Boston Americans to Spend Two Rays in Bamberg, April 4-,">. e C. \V. Rentz, Jr., one of the pro - moters of the base ball game here t on April 5th between the Rochester i Internationals and the Boston Amerii, cans, .Monday received a letter from f the Boston aggregation stating that t it was contemplated bv the party to I arrive in Bamberg at 9 o'clock Mone day morning, April 4th. Thus,'the - Boston Americans will spend two days in Bamberg. The time not conf sumed in the scheduled game will be i employed in team practice at Rhoad i t park. The party in the special Pullmans - of the Boston Americans will number s thirty-five persons, twenty-nine of 1 whom are ball players. Accommodations were requested for the efitire i party for the two days. 1 This game, the only big league ? game ever played in this section, bids , fair to be the biggest advertisement 1 Bamberg will have ever received. It is to be remembered that each of the - players on this famous team receives 7 a salary anywhere from $5,000 to , $20,000 a year, and the fact that the team will spend two entire days here is a compliment that a small town rarely has the privilege of receiving. The special Pullman cars carrying the team members and officers will leave Bamberg at 9 o'clock Tuesday night. The team, which is now in training at Hot Springs, Ark., comes direct to Bamberg without stop. The Rochester team will be in training at Darlington at tiie time or tne game '> here, and will probably spend only the day in the city. Ehrhardt Etchings. Ehrhardt, S. C., March 21.?I was surprised yesterday when I drove out > in the country to see that the farmers ' have gone to work so well. Many ' acres of corn have been planted, | i some cotton planted, and every one that I talked with said that he is | . not using scarcely any fertilizers, is increasing his corn crop, and reduc; ing his cotton. That is the thing to i do, I think, for the outlook. Also I am glad to hear and see that things are picking up. Times are improving lots and we are all glad to i see this. I say a lot of this is due ! to folks selling war savings stamps ' and liberty bonds. I was in a bank a few days ago and I heard it said : that t'hey are buying all the liberty bonds that the folks would sell at par value, and would continue to do so as long as the people will sell, that they think this is the way to help the times out, sell every thing you can spare and put the money in circulation. Then it helps all, not merely one. Times are bad, but not as bad as some of the people. We are all glad to see the Morningstar Cooperage company started up, and wish it great prosperity. Also J. D. Dannelly has, started his saw mill again. The ice plant has started up. H. R. Pearlstin has opened a grocery store in our town. We are all glad to hear that Mrs. Frances Copeland, who is in a hos pital in Charleston, is doing nicely since her operation, and we hope she will be back home again soon, as we miss her so much. Good Friday is here. All who have not planted their gardens, do so, for this is the day, so the old folks say. If gardens have ever been needed, this is the year. From what we hear it is time for another marriage in town. Who shall it be? I heard that Dannelly Bros.^ sold 25 nice beef cattle in Orangeburg last week. That sounds good. Farmers, raise all the cattle you can. Money comes in good and you can drive them over any day and collect. JEF. Improved Ehrhardt Mail Service. Through the efforts of the Ehrhardt postmaster, the people of Ehrhardt, and the Bamberg postmaster and through the generosity of the B., E. & W. railroad, a greatly improved mail service is now in operation to and from Ehrhardt. In addition to the regular mail service in effect for some time past via Bamberg, two new mails have been inaugurated over the B., E. & W. The first mail is dispatched from Ehrhardt at 7:30 a. m., arriving in Bamberg at 8:30, in time to connect with the morning mail to Charleston and points north. An Ehrhardt mail is dispatched from Bamberg at 9:30 a. m., arriving in Ehrhardt at 10:30, giving the people of that section a much earlier morning mail service than heretofore. Ehrhardt postofhce patrons may now receive their daily newspapers several hours earlier than they have in the past. ! ter's first meeting with Mrs. White. but if the hostess enjoyed the after, noon as much as the members, we are sure it will not be the last. Her i grace and genuine hospitality made all present her admirers.?Contributed. MRS. MARY HUNTER RENTZ. Widow of Late Jacob Rentz Ified Friday Afternoon, Age 85. Mrs. Mary Hunter Rentz died at the home of her son. C. W. Rentz, Sr., in Bamberg Friday afternoon about 2:00 o'clock, following an illness of about two days with pneumonia. Mrs. Rentz was in her usual health until Tuesday before her death. The funeral and burial took place at Hunter's Chapel Baptist church, of which she was a member, Sunday morning at 10 o'clock in the presence of a large concourse of relatives and friends. Rev. George P. White, of the Bamberg Baptist church, conducted the funeral service, and the body was laid to rest at the side of her husband, Jacob G.

Sh? was a woman of beautiful character, a loving and faithful wife and mother.' At the-death of her husband, they had been married 68 yeafc, a;record which is .probably unparalleled this section of the country. ^ i?> Baptist Church Notes. Mrs. Geo. P. White went to Denmark last Sunday afternoon and organized an R. A. band. C. W. Rentz, Jr., and Harry L. White met with the B. Y. P. U. at Denmark last Sunday to help complete their organization. s By special request the pastor was at Hunter's Chapel last Sunday afternoon.
