Maj. R. Boyd Cole. Among those on the streets of Barnwell last week was Maj. R. Boyd 1 Cole, of the U. S. army, who is now attached to headquarters at Omaha, Nebraska. Maj. Cole was formerly editor and owner of the Barnwell 9 Sentinel, and was one of the most popular man in the county, and numbered his friends by the hundreds. As a graduate of the Citadel he received such military training, that after a three months training at Ft. " 1- * w /N O no r\_ ugiemrupe, ue wao giauicu a *.?,*/tain's commission, and assigned to the 323rd regiment of infantry. ^Af\ terwards he spent several months in a technical school at Longres, Prance. After the armistice he was assigned to the army of occupation in Germany. On the return to this country (he was stationed at Camp ( , Lewis, in the state of Washington, and sent on recruiting service through the Dakotas. In the meantime he had been given a cdmmission as major in the regular army, and moved to Omaha, Nebraska. * Maj. Cole/'accompanied by his wife spent a good part of his furlough with her mother, Mrs. Wm. Gilmore Simms, near Midway, and with his I own mother in Manning, before returning to his post of duty. After coming into more or less close contact with the business interests over a large part of the United States, Maj. | Cole believes that the business depression is far worse in the grain and stock raising parts of the country than it is in the boll weevil section of the cotton belt. In fact, it is S his judgment that we are better off here in a business way than people 4 in any other section of ?he nation.? Barnwell Sentinel. Anything Welcome.

Minton is at work on the erection of a -curbing around the site of the Southern railway passenger station on Railroad avenue. Mr. Minton was awarded this contract as a result of recent negotiations between the city council of Bamberg and the officials of the Southern railway compa'nv, by the terms of which about ten feet of the passenger depot site was ceded, under certain conditions, to the town's use as a street. The agreement is to the effect that the town is to erect the concrete curbing around the southern and western sides of the depot enclosure, in consideration of which the railroad cuts off ten feet, approximately, of the depot property to be converted into a part of the street driveway, thus giving much | needed room to the street at this point. The concrete curb will be left with hnioc fnr inserting an iron pi upci avivu w railing, to be erected by the railroad company, which will also complete the curbing on the eastern side of the lot. This improvement will be a great I addition to the appearance of the | depot property and at the same time I will give the town a considerable widening of the avenue roadway between the station property and the sidewalk. As this street is much used it will help?to relieve the congestion erf traffic at this point. The terms of the agreement provide t"hat the portion of street ceded to the town shall remain the property of the railroad so long as it shall not be paved with permanent paving material, but shall be open for traffic at all times by the public. Whenever i this portion of street is paved, the strip becomes the permanent property of the city. No paving is anticipated, however, at the present time. TELEPHONE BILL PASSED. House Agrees to Senate Amendments to Measure. Columbia, March 9.?A general de -L-1?T + tho | crease 01 an ieit;?muiie iaic? m vuv j state to the charges in force January | 1, 1921, is carried in the Foster telephone bill passed by the senate Tuesday night and last night finally agreed to in its amended form by the house and ordered enrolled for ratification. The measure therefore lacks only the formal routine of ratification and the signature of the governor to become effective. The bill as originally introduced by * the house provided for a scale of minimum rates for the state, but the house judiciary committee to which | the bill was referred substituted in| stead a measure to provide for a return to the rates in force throughont the state on January 1, 1921, prior to the last increase granted by the state railroad commission after [ several months of hearings and dej liberations. The senate amended the I bill in two important particulars, pro| viding, first for the reinstatement of ! the free interurban toll service, which j the railroad commission had elimi inated, and, secondly, that the telephone companies might, if they desire, appeal to the state railroad commission for any changes from the rate schedule as provided in the bill. These senate amendments were agreed to by the house without debate or opposition. i LUXURIES TAX BILL KILLED. An Cher whelming Vote Against Measure?Three to One Ballot. Columbia, March 9.?By an overwhelming vote of 30 to 10 the senate j yesterday at the day session killed the luxuries tax bill on motion of Senator Hamilton of Chesterfield to strike out the enacting words. The bill was taken up soon after the morning session was begun and Senator Johnstone's amendments whioh were offered Tuesday were read, but action deferred on them. These amendments struck out automobiles. perfume, cologne and a number of other articles as well as reduced the tax on all other articles in the bill to one-half as originally provided. They were not acted upon, however, because of the entire measure being killed. On the roll call vote of Senator Hamilton's motion to strike out the enacting words of the bill the following ballot was recorded: Yeas: Baker. Beaslev, Bethea, Black, Bonham.

One Negro Drunk, Dies From Exposure?Shoot for Possession. Walterboro, March 9.?As a result of a still and barrel o^mash, two negroes are dead and one in jail charged with murder. Levi Brown was shot by Durant Thompson Sunday afternoon at Williams, in upper Colleton, two pistol shot wounds having been inflicted at close range. It is reported that Brown and Thompson joined left hands and agreed to "shoot it out," using their right hands. Several shots were fired by each but Thompson escaped unscathed, while Brown got two bullet wounds from which he died at the Clara EsDorn infirmary Tuesday. The story as told alleges that another negro, Joe Corley, had a still, and that he made some "licker" a fewdays ago, drinking some and falling in a ditch filled with water one night. He could not get out and spent the night in the water. From this exposure he took pneumonia and died. He left a barrel of "mash" and this was found by the other negroes, it is said, and a dispute followed, one of them wanting to drink the "mash" before it was distilled and the other wishing to distill it first. This was the starting of the trouble which led1 to the shooting, which occurred in the negro church yard at Williams Sunday afternoon. Thompson was arrested by Intendant J. T. O'Quinn and brought to jail Monday morning. Upon the death of the negro, Brown, at the infirmary, Coroner Dopson held the inquest. NOTICE OF APPLICATION FOR FINAL DISCHARGE.

BAMBERG, S. a NOTICE CONCERNING PLOWING IN PUBLIC ROOADS. Pursuant to recommendation of s the Bamberg County Grand Jury, the landowners of the county cultivating lands adjacent and adjoining public roads are hereby urgently requested not to plow into or allow their hands to plow into the roads. Landowners are requested to plant two or three rows of crops adjacent to roads parallel with the road, so that there may be proper turning space without the necessity of turning plows in the roads. It is against the law to allow plows to damage the roads, and it is an unnecessary practice. The county spends large sums of money in road building, and the roads belong to the people. I have no desire to prosecute anybody, but I must insist that this practice be stopped immediately. The farmers and tenants can cooperate in this respect, and there should be no necessity to bring action against anybody^ Full notice is being given Deiore i take such action. W. B. SMOAK, Supervisor.
