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.

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

Cole believes that the business depression
is far worse in the grain

Adds Street Room
Oh Railroad A venue
} Contractor D. H. 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

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.

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 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.
