The concert Tuesday night for the
benefit of the public schools proved to
be a financial success.
The gross amount derived from the
sale of tickets reached $3.50, while the
expense were not much greater than
$500.
The receipts derived from tickets
sold by the pupils go to the class rooms
to which the pupils belonged. A prem
ium of $40 was offered to the class
room which should sell the greatest
number of tickets. This was won by
the room presided over by Mrs. Bailey
at the Mesa school. IIer pupils sold
tickets to the amount of $23.50
Only Is percent of the proceeds will
be deducted for expenses, the balance
to go to the schools and for the pur-

money into bills, fold them and he would
see his money doubled. But he was
bound to get some useful secret by which
he could make money, so he sent 50 to
find out how to write without a pen and

Then he sent dollar to learn how to get

was nothing to do but put her in the
ambulance along with the man.
"After that the ride across town was
exciting enough for cowboy. At first

Annr0nriatiOn Refused.

Congress, in the closing hours of the
session refused to appropriate $3.50 900 to
the Charleston Exposition. 1t also re-
fused an appropriation to the Buffalo En-
position, but appropriated $5,O00,000 to
the St. Louis fair The story of Charles
tons defeat is told as follows in Tuesdays
press dispatches from Washington:
From 1890 last night the senate re-
NAMED in continuous session. The most
interesting feature of the session was its
receding from its amendment to the sun
dry civil bill providing for three expo
sitions, giving s.3,Goo,Wo to st: LOUIS,
S5OO,0O0 to Buffalo and $250,OOO to
Charleston, S. c. Without division the
motion of Senator Allison to recede was
agreed to. Then the senate receded from
the Charleston amendent to the st. Louis
exposition bill which had passed the
house as q separate measure. This action
passed the bill appropriating s5,0O0,OO0
for St. Louis Though suffering from i'll
health, Senator Vest, of Missouri, had re-
mained in the senate Ill night to battle for
this exposition appropriation. He said it
was not fair to make st. Louis suffer be-
cause the house would not make an ap-
preparation for the exposition in South
Carolina.
Senator Tillman showed deep feeling.
He said the legislation which had paved
the way for the St. Louis appropriation
was placed in bill last year, as were the
amendments from which the senate had
receded in the sundry civil bill. The
watch-dogs of the house of representatives
had not pounced upon this proposition
then and defeated it. Congress, he said,
had appropriated eleven millions of dol
lars for expositions, and now it was pro-
posed to give S5.O00,O00 more. His State,
South Carolina, was regarded as an out
cast, disinherited dog He would leave
it to the senate whether it was just, fair,
and right to give to St. Louis $5,00O,OOO
and refuse Charleston small $250,0OO.
Mr.. Depew and MIR. Lodge thought
that Charleston ought to be treated
equally with St. Louis.
The Bamberg herald. [volume] (Bamberg, S.C.) 1891-1972, 1901-03-07

y Congress has refused to appropriate
$250,OOO to the Charleston Exposition.
Senator Tillman made strong fight for
the appropriation, but it was killed
during the closing hours of congress.
The defeat of this measure is due to moth
ing but the same old hatred for South
Carolina and Charleston which has ex-
isted in the breasts of Northern repre-
sentatives ever since the war. They
have not yet forgiven our State for being
the first to secede and the firing on Fort
Sumter which commenced the bloody
struggle. Congress has heretofore made
appropriations for government exhibits
at expositions in other parts of the coun-
try and their action in this instance can
only be attributed to sectional feeling
and hatred.

The TOIbert Shooting.

GREENWOOD, February 2s.-A gentle
man from Mccormick brought here to-
day the first accurate account that has
been obtained of the shooting of Jim
Tolbert at that place last week.
) According to his story the people of
Mccormick, while determined to make
Tolbert leave the town, had no desire to
kill him or even inflict bodily harm.
They hit upon novel plan. They de-
cided to capture him and tie him in a
crate like calf and ship him to some of
his relatives at Anderson. The railroad
people, it is said, had agreed to receive
the freight and duly trapSal Rand the
crate was gotten in N1lDess. A party
of eight or ten men then set out to cap
ture 1.-THE varmint." Tolbert was found
at work repairing one of his houses, and
was told that he must either leave town
forthwith or he would be shipped off.
Tolbert broke and ran and the crowd
gave chase. There was no firing going
on-indeed, the whole crowd was con-
yulsed with laughter. Young Mr.. H. L.
Martin was not one of the party but
knew what was to be done, and when he
saw Tolbert runnipgup the street with
the pursuers at his heels he started to
head off the wanted man: Tolbert then
drew his pistol and fired twice at Martin,
and those of the pursuers who had pis-
tolls began firing at Tolbert. Martin was
wounded twice, as has been stated, but
neither time seriously. Tolbert was
wounded twice, once in the arm and
once in the back, the ball perforating the
lung. He was brought to Greenwood
the day after the shooting, and has since
been getting along nicely. The physi-
clan attending pronounced him out of
danger several days ago. :
TOlbert has declared that as soon as he
is able to be out he will have warrants
issued for four citizens of Mccormick
who were in the party that assaulted
him.
The people of Mccormick are still de-
termined that Tolbert shall not again
become a citizen of that town. They say
they have no special desire to do him
bodily harm, but that if he comes back
they will try to induce him to leave and
if he gets hurt he will cause it him
self.

Gov. McSweeney has not, yet disposed
of the free pass measure. We are net
apprised of why he is postponing action
on this bill, but his not having vetoed or
approved it leads us to believe he will
take no action whatever and return it TO
the general assembly next year without
his signature. We hope he will not do
this, however. He should either ap-
prove or veto it. For our part We pre-
fer decisive action.

can never reproduce these latter char
