SHORT LOCALS. i
Brief Items of Interest Throughout
the Town and County.
J. D. Copeland requests The Herald
to thank the gentlemen who inserted
his name in the paper last
week as a candidate for alderman;
but says that he "has already been
to the mill, and is not going again."
Whir?h mpflns we take it. that he is
not offering his services to the city
at the present time.
The Carlisle school band left Monday
morning on a tour of several
days, during which concerts were given
at Holly Hill, St. George and Elloree.
Sixteen band members, including
Captain John C. Lanham, bandv
master, made up the party. The band
expects to give several more concerts
during the next few weeks.
Dr. E. W. Sikes, president of Coker
college, Hartsville, was a visitor in
j the city Sunday. Sunday morning he
addressed the Baptist men's Bible
class and later addressed the church
at the mnrnin? service Dr Sikes is
one of the ablest speakers in the
state, and he delivered two fin? addresses
here. A large congregation
heard the address at the morning service.
P. F. Henderson, grand chancellor
of the South Carolina domain Knights
of Pythias, made an official visit to
the Bamberg lodge Monday evening
at the regular lodge convention. Mr.
Henderson arrived on the afternoon
train, and after his address left immediately
on the nine o'clock train
to return home. Later in the evening
the second rank was conferred on
two pages.
Mrs. Julia Brabham, mother of
Mrs. A. L. Kirkland, of Bamberg, was
carried to a Columbia hospital Monday
afternoon for treatment. Mrs.
Brabham, whose home is in Cope, has
been staying with her daughter, Mrs.

v . week or two. She has been in ill
health for some months, and it is the
hope of her relatives and friends
that the treatment will restore her
to health.. She is about 75 years of
age.
The Bamberg friends of Hammond
Bamberg, of Charleston, learned this
week with much regret of his serious
illness at his home. Mr. Bamberg,
who is the son of Capt. W. S. Bamberg,
of Bamberg, is suffering with
a serious case of pneumonia, and for
several days very little hope was held
out for his recovery. His brother,
Col. G. E. Bamberg, has been spending
sevral days at his bedside. The
last advices from the sick room indicated
that Mr. Bamberg is somewhat
improved. *
The "cash and carry" idea became
infectious in Bamberg a week or two
ago, when some out-of-town parties
decided to .cast their , lot in town. A
store was rented and the grocery
was opened up. In about a week's
time, the store was closed for lack of
patronage, presumably. It might be
TAmnrVpr? narpr>th?tinallv. that the
store did not carry a line of advertising
while trying to do business here.
The Herald does not say thiB caused
the store's failure. Our readers may
draw their own conclusions.
The friends of N. P. Smoak regretted
last week to learn that he had
been stricken with acute appendicitis.
The attack came on him Thursday,
and Friday morning he was rushed to
a Charleston hospital for an operation.
Mr. Smoak's condition grew
considerably worse while on the way
to the hospital, and it was found necessary
to operate immediately upon
arrival in Charleston. His condition
is believed to be somewhat improved,
and his friends sincerely hope that an
early recovery will result from the
operation.
That whitewash can be used for a
more worthy purpose than covering
investigations is exemplified in the
use of lime in Bamberg at
this time. In several parts of town
whitewash and brush have been in
evidence. Carlisle school is the latest
addition to the list. The school is
having all the trees painted white,
and it is astonishing to note the improved,
clean appearance. All of the
trees of the school property are being
thus treated to a coating of white. If
every property owner would do the
same, the town would have a much
neater appearance.
Th? worst storm of the year visited
Bamberg Saturday night. Following
a hot and sultry afternoon,
the storm arrived in the early morning,
and for about two hours the
wind blew with considerable velocity.
This was probably the tail end of,
the big storm that traveled over a j
large portion of the south during Sat- j
urdav, and which left in its wake;
millions of dollars of damage and:
which cost the lives of about 100
persons. Very little damage was done
here. Some trees were uprooted,
and the streets were filled with broken
limbs, and a few glass windows j
were broken. I
CHAUTAUQUA OPENS.
First Number of Programme Oiven
Wednesday Afternoon.
The five days programme of the
Redpath chautauqua was opened in
Bamberg yesterday (Wednesday)
afternoon at four o'clock, the first
number presented being a grand concert
by the Artists Four Singers and
Players. An excellent attendance
marked the opening entertainment.
Wednesday evening the same entertainers
gave a concert, which was followed
by a lecture, "The War on
Hunger," by George L. McNut.
The big chautauqua tent is located

secured as was used for this purpose
last year.
It is understood that these is excellent
reason to believe that the advance
sale of season tickets, supplemented
by the cash gate receipts, will
amply cover the cost of the five days'
entertainment. The Apollo Music
club, under wrhose auspices the Chautauqua
is presented in Bamberg, has
made a guarantee of about $1,350 to
the chautauq,ua people. The advance
sale of seats has been very satisfactory,
even though the conditions are
very unfavorable at this time.
The Chautauqua is offering a splendid
programme of entertainment during
the next four days, including several
lectures, concerts and other entertainments.
Saturday night the
play, "Nothing But the Truth," will
be presented at he tent. This play
play is said to be one of the best
comedies on the road,-and has been
highly praised wherever given. The
last night of the Chautauqua, Mandav,
will be the "joy night" of the Chautauqua.
On this last evening the
Swiss yodlers will give a concert, followed
by cartoons and readings by

The talent is making Bamberg
this year under considerable difficulty.
The dates on the programme
were changed to prevent a possible
local conflict, and in order to give
Bamberg a different dating, it was
necessary to arrange for the talent
to come here from Thompson, Ga.
They leave that point on the night
preceding their appearance in Bamberg,
reaching here at 5:15 a. m.
They leave Bamberg the next morning
for Williston.
Frost again visited Bamberg county
Tuesday morning. Early risers report
that plants were covered with
white.

Last Sunday week while Mrs. Julia
Miller was attending-church services,
some one entered her home on Main
street and stole about $50 in money.
Entrance to the house was effected
through a window. This was the
second time Mrs. Miller's home had
been burglarized; a short time before
a quantity of household goods being
stolen.
Petitions are being circulated for
signatures calling for an election in
Bamberg school district No. 14, to
decide whether or not bonds shall be
issued in the amount of $30,000 for
the erection of a new high school
building. The petitions were started
out yesterday, and they were being
freelv signed by both property own
ers and voters.
Seventy Carlisle students Lave
registered for the R. O. T. C. camp at
Camp Knox, Ky., beginning June
16th. W. C. Walker, traveling agent
of the Southern railway, met the men
recently and arranged to have two
sleeping cars at their disposal for the
trip. The cadets will meet at Columbia,
where the cars will await
them. The cadets will be reimbursed
for their tickets on arrival at Camp
Knox.

UREAT COMMONER AT OMR.
William Jennings Bryan Addressed
Audience Saturday Night.
William Jennings Bryan, thrice nominated
by the Democratic party for
president of the United States, and
former secretary of state in the cabinet
of President Wilson, addressed
an audience of Bamberg county people
at the Olar high school auditorium
Saturday night last. Unfortunately
weather conditions were bad,
and this perhaps contributed largely
to the smallness of the audience. Perhaps
not more than 150 persons heard
the great commoner.
Mr. Bryan had been secured by a
j committee of Olar gentlemen for the
engagement Saturday night. Mr.
Bryan had been wintering in Florida,
and is on his way to his home in Ne|
braska. The day before he spoke in
Savannah. It was quite an enterprising
venture for the citizens of
Olar to secure the great orator, whose
I fame is known around the world, and
| it was a matter of great regret that
conditions prevailed which prevented
a packed house, as Mr. Bryan is one
of the greatest orators in the world,
and has a message which apepals for
the betterment of th? American people.
Mr. Bryan was introduced, after a
prayer by the Rev. Peter Stokes, presiding
elder of the Orangeburg Methodist
conference, by R. Fair Goodwon,
cashier of the Bank of Olar. The
subject of Mr. Bryan's address was
"Man's Relation to Government, Society,
and God."
The speaker made, as usual, no
attempt to produce laughter, but in
replying briefly to the introduction of
Mr. Goodwin, Mr. Bryan stated that
it was customary when he was introduced,
to be spoken of in terms of
greatness; a form, he said, he did
not sanction. The best introduction
he had ever had, said Mr. Bryan, was
given when he was a young lawyer
and was about to give an address.
The chairman was an Irishman, and
Mr. Bryan thought it would be a good
opportunity to get some good advertising.
He asked . the chairman to
introduce him as William Jennings
Bryan, attorney at law. The Irishman
forgot the words and was coacher
in the phraseology several times,
but at th? last moment the Irishman
again forgot, and introduced him saying,
"Mr. O'Brien will now speak."
The address was one of Mr. Bryan's
celebrated lectures and was presented
in the commoner's usual striking
manner. Politics figured very
little in the lecture. Mr. Bryan did
take occasion to say that the first
four years of Mr. Wilson's presidency
was one of the most progressive administrations
in the history of America.
He also stated that had America
signed the peace treaty soon after
the signing of the armistice the country
would now be much nearer a normal
condition than it js.
Mr. Bryan remained in Olar Saturday
night. H? was entertained at
the home of Dr. and Mrs. L. A. Hartzog.
A number of Bamberg gentlemen
braved the stormy night to hear
Mr. Bryan.

ARSON IS ALLEGED.
Boy Arrested is Said to Have Set Fire
to House Tuesday.
Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock the
fire alarm sounded, and the fire department
found the flames at the cotton
mill cottage on East Main street
occupied by Johnnie Sandifer. The
flames were soon extinguished and little
damage was done. It is said that
this was the fourth time this house
has been found to be afire within the
past week or two, the last previous
time being Sunday night.
Chief of Police Moody arrested Alfred
Young, a step-son of Sandifer,
and placed him in the guard house
charged with setting the house on
fire. It is said that kerosene had been
pourned and ignited, and the boy is
alleged to have been the guilty par
ty.
The matter is now being investigated,
and if the charge is found to be
well founded, it is likely that steps
will be taken to have the boy committed
to the reformatory. He is about
ten or twelve years old, and is in the
I third grade at the graded school. The
boy denied the accusation.

BIDS FOR ROAD OPENED.
W. D. Mayfield Submits Ix>\vest Bid
for Construction Work.
Last Friday at noon bids for the
construction of the portion of the
Charleston-Augusta highway between
Denmark and the county line of
Barnwell were opened at the office
of the county board of commissioners
at the court house. There were
five.bids for the construction work,
and it was found that the lowest bid
had been offered by W. D. Mayfield,
of Lees, the amount of whose bid is
$15,464.30. The contract will probably
be awarded to Mr. Mayfield, if
his bid receives the approval of the
state highway department, in whose
hands the matter now rests. The
right is reserved to reject any or all
bids.
The construction work involved in 1
the contract calls for the building of
4.242 miles of highway, which will
carry the road' from the BarnwellBamberg
county line to the corporate
limits of Denmark. The bids of the
other contractors bidding on the work
ranged from around $16,500 to $23,000.
The bids submitted were propositions
from H. B. Hoffendeitzel &
Co., Atlanta; Thomas E. Hook, New
Brookland; L. P. McMillan and E.
W. Watson, Bamberg; Smoak & Reid,
Walterboro, and W. D. Mayfield, Lees.
Messrs. Smoak & Reid, of Walterboro,
submitted the second lowest
bid for the construction work.
As soon as the final contract award
is made, and proper bond is arranged,
it is expected that work will be started.
The road will be straightened
out and will be practically a new
route most of the way.
As previously stated in Th? Herald,
it is believed that an equitable
arrangement will be made whereby
the road will be built through the
corporate limits of Denmark, a distance
of nearly or quite two miles. .
As this involves an expenditure, at
the rate estimated on the remainder
of the road, of approximately $4,
000 a mile, Denmark does not feel |
equal to the occasion., Federal aid
can b? secured for Denmark's portion,
if the remainder can be raised.
The road from Denmark to Bamberg
will be constructed by the county
chain gang. This road is already
in fairly good shape. A good roadbed
has already been built, and very
little grading is necessary, and for
this reason it is believed that the
chain gang can build this link more
economically than if it is let to a
contractor.
With the link from Denmark to the
county line, the Denmark corporate
limits link and the Denmark-Bamberg
link completed, about half of
the road through the Bamberg county
limits will hav? been finished. # It is
contemplated that the remainder of
the road to the Orangeburg line near
Branchville will be completed next
year. Half of the cost of the highway
through the county will be paid
by the government through federal
road aid.
This present contract will be the
second work constructed in this county
with federal aid. The completion
last year of the county link of the
,Columbia-Savannah highway marked
the first work of the kind instituted
in Bamberg county. It is contemplated
that federal road aid will be car- 3
? - ? ? 1
ried forward progressively as raym-|ly
as possible. The county utilizes
each year all of the motor vehicle tax,
amounting to several thousand dollars
annually, in this manner, which
sum is supplemented by other available
funds. , ]
PENSION MONEY READY SOON. "
'
Pension Roll Now Being Made Up By
County Pension Board.
1
The county pension board is ex
pected to meet next Saturday, at
which time the last work in connection
with the county pension roll will be
completed. The probate judge is
expecting the pension money any day,
and it is likely that he will be ready
to pay the veterans and widows their
pensions next week. The pension
roll has already been made up, but
the work of classification, which is
left entirely to the county board, has
not yet been finished.
There are 104 pensioners on the
county roll this year. Of this number
43 are veterans and 61 are widows.
The sum of $6,240 will be distributed
among the veterans and widows
in this county. There are 9,783
* - - x _ i. ^
pensioners in tne state.
Barnwell county has 62 veterans
and 96 widows, with an allotment of
$9,480; Aiken has 138 veterans and
193 widows with an allotment of
$1 9,860; Allendale has 32 veterans
and 4 7 widows with an allotment of
$4,740; Calhoun has 20 veterans and
31 widows with an allotment of $3,060;Colleton
has 96 veterans and 153
widows with an allotment of $14,S80;
Hampton has 45 veterans and
76 widows with an allotment of $7,260;
Dorchester has 4 9 veterans and
77 widows with an allotment of $7,560;
and Orangeburg has 133 veterans
and-183 widows with an allotment
of $18,960.
CANDIDATES NOMINATED.
Six Candidates for Mayor and 18 for
Aldermen Named.
Pursuant to the call of D. J. Delk
and others in the last issue of The
Herald for a citizens' meeting at the ]
LaVictoire Theatre Tuesday after- !
noon, a small number of men assem- <
bled and named six candidates for !
mayor, eighteen candidates for al- !
dermen and three candidates for com- 1
missioners of public utilities.
D. J. Delk, who was instrumental ]
in calling the meeting, stated that it
was his idea not to nominate a single j
ticket, but to pursue the good old ]
Democratic rule of letting everybody
run. The main trouble seems to have s
been that none would voluntarily ;
offer for the offices. 1
i
in order tnat mere may oe a wiae
field to select from, six aldermen were
nominated for mayor and eighteen i
for aldermen. It being felt that a better
selection could not be had for i
commissioners than the gentlemen
who are now holding the office, they
were nominated.
E. H. Henderson was made chairman
of the meeting, and R. M. Hitt
secretary. The following gentlemen
were nominated: '
For mayor?L. P. McMillan, F. K.
Graham, D. J. Delk, LaVerne Thom- <

G. Moye Dickinson, E. C. Hays, C. W.
Rentz, Sr.
Several of the citizens present
at the meeting have requested
the secretary to add the name of
M. J. Black to the list of nominees
for aldermen, his name having been
inadvertently omitted.
The following were also nominated
for aldermen, but have declined to ;
accept the-honor: J. D. Copeland, E.
A. Hooton, W. E. Free, B. D. Carter,
C. R. Brabham, Jr., and L. C. Smoak. ,
Mayor Smoak presented the meeting
with a telegram he had received
in regard to a state meeting to protest
against the increase in telephone
rates in the state, requesting that
delegates be named from Bamberg.
J. J. Smoak and LaVerne Thomas
were named to attend this meeting :
in Columbia.
There being no further business,
the meeting was adjourned. j

MRS. H. J. HAYS DEAD.
Aged Bamberg Woman Follows j
Daughter to Grave Monday* w
A telegram was received in Bam- i
berg early Tuesday morning an- l
nouncing the death at Appalachicola, '
Fla., of Mrs. Hibernia J. Hays, relict
of the late Major Hays, of this city,
Monday night. The death of Mrs.
Hays is peculiarly sad, as she has fol- 1
towed to the grave her daughter, Miss
Addys Hays, who died just two weeks
previous.
Mrs. Hays had been in comparative
?ood health for one of her age until
recently. During the fatal illness of
Miss Addys, Mrs. Hays suffered a 1
slight stroke of paralysis, but she hail A
appeared to rally from the effects of ^
the stroke, and when her son, N. R. j
Hays, returned to his home in Appalachicola
after the death of his ^
sister, Mrs. Hays accompanied him <
to the Florida town. She stood the d
trip well, and was getting along very ^
well, and the news of her death came
as quite a shock to her Bamberg |
friends and relatives.
The body was brought to Bamberg
Wednesday afternoon arriving in 1
Denmark about 4 o'clock. The funeral
and burial is expected to be held
this (Thursday) morning at South
end cemetery, where the body will
be laid to rest in the family plot. Her
pastor, Rev. S. O. Cantey, will conduct
the services this morning at 11
o'clock.
Mrs. Hays was the daughter of the *
late Mr. and Mrs. Jhk? Cooner. She
was born in the Farrell's section of
the county, and resided in this com- *
munity all of her life. She was mar- 'i
ried to the late Major E. R. Hays,
who died fifteen years ago, and for
many years past has resided on Mid
way street in this city.
She is survived by the following _ a
children: E. R. Hays, of Appalachi- m
cola; E. C. Hays, of Bamberg; Mrs. j fl
M. L. Counts, of North Carolina; and
Mrs. J. A. Spann, of Bamberg, Mrs. j
Hays was in her 81st year. She was
a member of Trinity Methodist (H
church, this city, and was dearly be- ^
loved by a wide circle of friends and
acquaintances. '
The annual picnic of the Duncan-, m
ville school will be held Saturday, I
April 23. The public is cordially in- H
vited. ' 1
