The mon will be full Thursday, and
the almanac says there will be thunder
showers for the next few days.
Most folks think, though, that the
train will cease on the "full of the
moon." Here's hoping the moon men
are right.
The new artesian well has now

hundred feet, and it is hoped to have
one of the strongest flowing wells in
this section.

Workers' Council Meets.
The workers' council of the Olar
Baptist Sunday school met Friday
night at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
J. O. Sanders. The following officers
were elected: Julian Cave, president;
Dr. J. R. McCormack, vice
president, and Mrs. C. C. Morris, secretary.
Plans were then discussed
on how to make 'the Sunday school
more interesting and how to get the
people to attend. Dr. McCormack
gave several good suggestions, some
of which we hope to carry out in the
near future.
"The way of the Cross leads home"
was then sung, followed "by a prayer
by J. O. Sanders. "In the shadow
of the rock" was sung, followed by
a prayer by Dr. McCormack. Dr.
McCormack then illustrated the lesson.
He made a very good explanation.
Then "Ring the Bells of Heaven"
and "Draw me nearer" were
sung. Before the next song, "At the
Cross," was sung refreshments were
served, and dismission followed by
the president. The next place of

ADMITTED TO BAIL.
Sam Singleton, Jr., Released From
Jail Last Saturday.
Sam Singleton, Jr., who shot and
killed James Kearse and Xevy Kearse,
brothers, on July 31, was released
from the Bamberg county jail Sat-,
urday under $1,500 bond, granted
in proceedings before Judge I. \\\ j
Bowman, of Orangeburg. The bond
was arranged and Singleton received
his release from jail Saturday.
In the application for bail for
Singleton, affidavits were submitted,
which throw some light on the homicide.
It will be recalled that the
Kearses and Singleton entered into a
pistol- duel at Ebenezer colored
church near Olar on the fifth Sunday
in July, and after the firing had
ceased Xevy Ivearse was found to
have been instantly killed and James
Kearse mortally wounded, dying sev-i
eral days later. Singleton escaped at
the time but surrendered himself the
next day.
Hampton Kearse, who submitted
an affidavit in the application for
bail proceedings, swore that he was
attending church that day and that
when he started in the church for
cnrri AQ "ho IIDQTH
CiiC (tllCiUUUU CV1 UVbf JJ.VJ u. ?
pistol shot as he reached the steps.
Turning he saw Jessie Kearse with a
pistol in his hands pointed in the
direction of Singleton, and Nevy
Kearse was reaching as if for a pistol.
Sam then got his pistol and
fired several times, and the two
Kearses fell, both with pistols in
their hands. Sam ran and relatives
of the Kearses came up, one of them
got James'^ pistol and shot at Sam
as he ran.
James Orr swore that he was at
Three Mile Creek church in May and
Nevy Keaice told him of a difficulty
with Singleton, and that he, Nevy,
expected to kill Sam the first time he
saw him. He told Sam of this conversation,
and further said that he
knew Sam had tried to avoid trouble
with the Kearses. Orr also said he
was related to the Kearses, but is not
Ir\ Oiy?orlatAr?
I CiCtLCU IV
Sam Singleton also submitted an
affidavit of his version of fhe affair,
in which he said he walked off from
the Kearses at Ebenezer church, as he
was afraid of trouble with them, having
heard of their threats against his
life. ' As he walked away, "the
Kearse brothers came at him, pistols
in hand, and immediately fired at
him, he thinks twice. Sam then pulled
his pistol and fired several times
as fast as he could. He did not shoot
until he was shot at and only in defense
of his own life.

Huge Rattler Killed in Town.
Tuesday afternoon some colored
boys passing the residence of Mr. j
* j I
and Mrs. E. A. Hooton, on Kanroaa
avenue, saw a snake emerging from
beneats the hedge in the front yard.
Securing sticks they succeeded in killing
the reptile, which proved to be
a rattlesnake. It measured four feet
in length, abotft three inches in diameter
and acrried eight rattles and the
proverbial "button." The snake attracted
considerable comment on
Main street, where the boys exhibited
their kill with great pride. The attention
of the boys was attracted to
the snake by the sound of its rattles.

REMODELING BUILDING.
Johnson Hotel Property Undergoing
Extensive Changes.
Work was started last week by
Contractor D. H. Minton on the remodeling
of the old Johnson Hotel
property, purchased last year by Col.
John F. Folk, It was the intention
of Col. Folk in acquiring this property
convert it into a modern hotel,
and considerable material was purchased
last year for this purpose.
The work of remodeling the building
was halted, however, because of a
contest of the will of X. A. Hunt,
from whose estate the purchase was
made, and it was not until recently
that this case was decided and a clear
title granted to Col. Folk. In the
meantime the financial depression arrived
and the work was further delayed.
It is still the intention of
Col. Folk to convert the building into
a hotel, although this will not be
done at the present time.
The work now in progress of completion
is the converting of the stores
fronting on Main street into modern
places of business. The -stores occupied
by Guess and Utsey and E. A.
Hooton, and the places formerly occupied
by the barber shop and the
express office are being overhauled
and made new. New plate glass
fronts are being installed, with attractive
display windows. In addition,
the entrance to the old hotel is
being torn away, and another store
will be fitted in its place, giving a
fine block of five stores fronting od
Main street. Tte unoccupied stores
have been engaged by Mr. Osteen, of
Ehrhardt, a general merchant, and
the Denmark Wholesale grocery, who
| will occupy them upon completion.
I The outside of the building will be
I given a plastered effect.

<Sam Zimmerman returned to Bamberg
last week from Washington and
New York, where he was called on
account of a hkch in the admission to
America of a brother and sister of
| Mrs. Sam Zimmerman, Rosa Pliskin
and Izzie Pliskin. The boy and girl
arrived at Ellis Island, New York, a
| week or two ago, and they were held
( at the immigration station. In fact,
; the immigration o:hcer had decided
j not to admit them, but Mr. ZimmerI
man called on Congressman Byrnes
in Washington, who used his good
| offices in*the matter and succeeded in
having the decision reversed as to
Miss Pliskin. On account of alleged
physical defect of the boy, his unqualified
release from the station
could not be secured, but Mr. Byrnes
oaciotoH \Tr Zimmerman to the ex
tent of having the lad released on
$1,000 bond, for his appearance bei

proceedings. The bond was arranged
and the boy and girl were

who brought the young lady home
with him. Mr. and Mrs. Zimmerman
express their thanks to all who so
kindly gave them assistance.

TOBACCO MEN RECIPROCATE.
Turn the Tables on Bamberg Men by
Giving Fish Supper at River.
Edisto river is a famous place for
fish fries?and stews?don't forget
the stews, though it is generally a
fry and a stew combined?stewed
fish, we mean, of course. However,
it is a rare thing for the tables to be
turned on Bamberz by having some
outside parties give the folks of this
town a stew and fry (the two words
reversed purposely.)
This is exactly what happened last
Thursday night. The gentlemen of
the Bamberg tobacco market gave a
stew and fry at Cannon's bridge, on
the banks of the Edisto, as a means
of expressing their appreciation of
the treatment they say Bamberg has
accorded them. It appeared that
there must have been a hundred persons
there, although the official count
by Friend Kittrell showed the number
to be exactly 73, and we will take
his word for it, for be it said Kittrell
is the finest cooker of fish and "redhorse
bread" in the world, and it is
his business not to make a mistake
in the count.
The occasion was a most happy
one. Everbody ate fish until they
felt finny (not funny?there was
nAtViJnor >int fpo watpr tn drink.)
uuiu1u5 uub avv t* mvw. ,
There was such a profusion of fried
and stewed fish with the usual trimmings
that another good sized
crowd could have been fed without
anybody going home hungry. In addition
to the fish, Kittrell suddenly
appeared on the threshold with a
bucket full of fried chicken?they
do not use dishes at Bamberg fish
suppers, they're tob small. The
chicken, said Kittrell, was for the
parson, Brother Cantey (why, of
course, Brother Cantey was there?
very muchly, we should say) and although
the parson disdained the
sight of it in the presence of Edisto
fish, we noticed the bucket lingered
near his plate for some time, and it
Trir>init*r mnr?li lisrhtpr than it
L I IUU f iWiUlWJ V4vu **Q
came.
After the supper, good fellowship
was enjoyed under the bright rays of
a half moon, but where twro or three
men of oratorical turn are congregated
together, somebody is going to
make a speech or bust?or both. And
so, although scarcely able to navigate
under the tremendous load the
occasion furnished, Mayor LaVerne
Thomas mounted the rostrum arid
spake as never man spake before?
under the circumstances. The mayor
expressed happiness, on behalf of the
folks of Bamberg, that such a fine
set of fellows as the tobacco men
come to this town annually, that .the
town and community are proud to
Tr-ft-Vi n e
uavc tuciu imu uu.
After this Mr. Cantev wa3 called
upon and further elaborated upon the
joy of having the tobacco men in the
community. Mr. Cantey started out
to talk until Glenn Cope had finished
supper?Glenn did not start until 15
minutes before the rest and was naturally
delayed in finishing. The parson
gave this up as a bad job, though,
for fear his congregation would go to
sleep.
Then R. J. Works?the big man of
the market, physically and otherwise
?had something to say and said it.
He said that now, while everybody's
down in the mouth about the price
of tobacco, he thought a fine time to
3-/% tn fho river. eat fish and
* U uu n ii bv vuv
forget tobacco for an hour. He said
he had eaten fish all over the country,
but never such fish as Kittrell
prepares on the banks of the Edisto,
and when he and his contemporaries
of the market remembered the supper
tendered them last year by Bamberg
people, he thought the least
they could do was to reciprocate this
year. He then talked a little about
tobacco, in which he expressed his
deep regret that the farmers lost
money this year on the weed. He
assured his farmer friends that it
hurt him when they came in the warehouse
with a frown on their faces;
he wished he could help them, as
well as himself, and he assured his
hearers he was just as sorry for himself
as the planters are for themselves;
they are all losers this year.
Mr. Works is president of- the tobacco
men's board of trade, which gave the
supper.
Plain moonlight, as well as moonshine,
produces sentiment in those
sentimentally inclined, so a dozen or
so of the tobacco men and their
friends gathered together and made
tti6 weiKin ring wnxi uau suumciu
songs, interspersed now and then
with some Sunday school selections,
and the singing formed one of the
delightful features of the evening.
The evening was thoroughly enjoyed,
and the hosts of the occasion
were unanimously voted regular fellows.
big hearted, jolly, and full of
the joy of life. Needless to say these
men have as many friends in Bamberg
county as they have acquaintances,
all of whom look forward to
their return next year, bringing with
them their same good cheer, plus better
prices for tobacco.

when Marcellus Cook, a white man ,
65 years old, had his throat cut in J
his home while the other members 1

Batesburg today followed the inquest
conducted by Coroner Weed this
morning. Barfield was arrested by BS
H. D. Oswald, deputy sheiifif. The H
prisoner claims that he is innocent
of the crime. B9
The circumstances leading to the
arrest of Barfield are that Barfield
