Shot December 21,
Died Last Thursday
The death last Tnursday of Clara
Thompson, a negro woman, ended
the second chapter in a local tragedy.
Clara has been at death's door
for the past four months, during
which time she has suffered agonies
as the result of a pistol shot at the
alleged hanjls of Carrie Whitmore
or Carrie Stephens, as she is sometimes
called. The shooting occurred
on December 21, last, and she died
on April 20, lacking one day of beins:
four months.
An inquest was held over the bodv
\
of the dead woman by Magistrate
Edgar Dickinson, the verdict being
that she came to her death from a
pistol shot wound at the hands of the
Whitmore woman. Only one witness
was examined at the inquest, a, negro
woman neighbor of the Whitmore
woman. She testified that Clara
came to Carrie's house in December
and inquired where Sarah Robinson
lived. She was greeted with a pistol
shot. One of those who came to the
house after the shooting asked Carrie,
the witness swore, why she shot
Clara, t'he reply being that women
had been worrying her asking where
other folks lived and that she intended
to kill the next one.
AccorjJing to statements of the
dead woman, this was substantiallycorrect.
S'he-stated, so it is said, that
she did not know the Whitmore wo
man at all, and was completely surprised
when she was shot. TJie dead
woman, it is said, bore an excellent
reputation, while the Whitmore woman's
character is ^aid not to be so;
good. She has been placed in jail.

Carlisle Downs Wofford Fighters.
/
Carlisle defeated Wofford Fitting
school here last* Thursday in a game
that was far more interesting than
the score indicates. Fleming pitched
well for Wofford but suffered from
poor support. Mooneyhand hit a
double and triple out of four times
up and scored two of the visitors'
runs.
The features for Carlisle were the
pitching of Sauls, the hitting and
fielding of Large and the hitting of
Folk. Large got a double and triple,
while Folk got a double and two
singles. Thompson caught a pretty
game, got a hit in a pinch and stoie
three bases. Thomas started behind
the bat for Wofford but was forced to
retire in the second wHhen he was injured
by a swing from?Large's bat.

the affairs of the party in this cofunty.
Owing to a rather light vote through

Shifters Order Has
Arrived in Bamberg
The other day a young man walked
into the book store and asked to purchase
some "o. k. paper fasteners."
This was an unusual purchase, as
these little brass paper clips are used
very seldom; in fact the book store
has some on hand that have been
here for some years. On rare occa
* * V? i
sions some office people witn unus^iai
taste want this particular variety of
clip. ,In view of t'he unusual purchase,
the clerk was prompted to inquire
to what use they would be put.
Imagine the surprise when the young
man stated that he was buying them
form for badges for t'he "shifters."
He said the "shifters" are here
and there is lots of fun in it.' The
idea is to get one or more members;
the new member must get another in
order to get his money back." Eveerybodv
has read much about the
"shifters" in the large cities. Now,
when you see a young man or young
woman wearing a little brass paper
fastener, you know that individual is
a "shifter"?whatever that is. There
is a code that invites flirtation among
members, it is said, although the
young gentleman buying the badges
says It is entirely harmless, and provides
only innocent amusement.
| High School Girls Denounce Shifters.
(
! At a meeting of the girls of the
Bamberg high school held yesterday
morning, the following resolutions
were unanimously adopted in regard
to the "Shifters," and all girls holding
badges in the so-called Shifters
VionHoH thpm in and re
u^auiMuvu -
flounced further connection therewith:
"Whereas, an organization known
as the Shifters has appeared in our
town, and
"Whereas, some of our high school
girls have* innocently become menN
bers, having no idea of the purpose
or the influence of such an organization;
' ' % '
"Therefore be it resolved, that we,
the girls of the Bamberg high school,
one hundred per cent, strong, do
denounce in emphatic terms this organization;
'
"That every high school girl who
is now a member will turn in, throw
away, or destroy her badge;
"That the badge be looked upon as
a symbol of shame;.
"That we resent being asked to
join this organization;
"That'we refuse to associate with
any boy who is a Shifter or who
wiars the badge;
| "That we, as a body of girls, will
do everything in our power to get
rid of this evil influence in our town,
state and nation;
"That we call upon the hign scnooi
! girls of every school in the state to
take a positive stand against the
Shifters, or any organization of its
'kind;
"That if necessary we hand ourselves
together in a state-wide moreI
ment for the uplift of our boys and
girls;
"That a copy of these resolutions
be sent to The Bamberg Herald, the
Bamberg County Times, the State,
and the New^ and Courier, and that
a copy be kept on record ih the superintendent's
office."

Chandler Submits Proof.
"Doctor" Chandler says some folks
reading The Herald last week were
inclined to doubt his boll weevil
story, so 'he has brought fort^ his
proof. Garland Smoak was with him
at the time he saw the weevils wintered
snugly under some pine bark,
and Mr. Smoak vouches for the truth
of all Chandler said?and more. In
fact, Mr. Smoak says, a wire fence
'had been cut in a nearby field and
the farmer's hogs got out. His opin-?|
ion is that the ?boll weevils did it,
for it is a commonly known fact that
bolT weevils are enemies to hogs.
Hogs have been advertised for several
years as weevil beaters. ^Jle infers
that the wonder of the thing is
that the weevils did not kill all the
hogs, but they seemed to overlook
that minor detail. As Mr. Chandler
is very particular about details, it
ought to be said that the boll weevil
discovery was made in Barnwell
county, instead of Bamberg, as stated
i**- rrv> ^ Uoro 1H 'act treplr TnflSmilCh
Hi 1 LLC Xl^/lUiu luuv f? vw*?*
as Mr. Chandle^ proves his story by
Mr. Smoak, and Mr. Smoak says he
can prove it by Mr. Chandler, it must
be so. Anyway, The Herald does not
doubt it.
Mrs. Mina C. Van Winkle, the only
woman holding the?rank of lieutenant
in the Washington police'department,
has been ordered before the trial
court for refusing to obey orders.
