Bank of Charleston, was IN the city iaSl
Thursday evening, and addressed called
meeting of city council in the town nall
which was also attended by several cltl'
zens of the town. On account OF the

travelin" in the interest OF the Charleston
Exposition, and his visit to Bambers was
for the purpose of getting the city council
to subscribe for stock in the Exposition
Company, as we'll as to solicit suoscrip'
tions from private corporations and IN
dividuals. Mr.. Pringle was heard with
interest and attention by those present
but council decided not to take up the
matter until the regular meeting III Au'
gust. Mr.. Pringle left Friday morning
for Aiken. .,
1t is safe to say that there will be nc
stock taken by the city council OF BAN
berg. While our people would no doubl
be glad to see the Exposition. great
success; still we need too many improve
ments here at home to invest IN an en-
terprise in another town.

Serious Runaway.

Last Friday morning Mrs. J. L. Eddie.
man and Mrs. Gray were out riding and
while driving down Railroad avenue, the
ten o'clock train came along. The horse
became frightened and turning to the left
ran up on the sidewalk, where the buggy
struck small tree. Both ladies were
thrown out, and seriously hurt. The
horse then ran across the railroad and
left the buggy in the ditch on the side OF
the embankment. The animal was badly
frightened, for it ran next against the
front yard fence of Mrs. Julia Brabham,
breaking it down, and went into the yard,
where it was caught,
Both ladies were badly hurt by their
fall. Mrs. Eddleman was bruised on the
head and body, while Mrs. Grays shoulder
was seriouly injured or broken, besides
other bruises. AS soon as possible they
were carried to their residence, the John
son Hotel, and they are doing as well as
could be expected at this writing. The
buggy was broken up badly, and the horse
received cut which is not serious.
