How the Baby Came.

Bamberg has become accustomed tr
surprises but she received one Sunday
morning out of the usual order, and
which has caused mystery that she is
still trying to solve. The surprise was
the announcement of the finding OF a
week old baby, and the mystery IS Nv hose
is it ?" and "Whence did it Gomez"
1t was three o'clock Sunday morning
that Mr.. Calhoun was awakened by the
night train from Charleston. 1t usually
slows up and enters the side track in
front of his house, pulls on down to the
station and allows the other train to pass.
A few minutes after it had done this he
heard a CRY of baby. On looking through
the blinds he saw a basket and bottle OF
milk on the piazza. He dressed and went
out but before bringing it in he called In
some ladies and a gentleman. As he got
to the railroad to cross the street the
second train was pulling by and he noticed
a man leaning out of a window gazing at
the house. He hollered at the man and
from his reply and actions Mr.. Calhoun
thinks he knew something about it.
The baby was taken out of the basket
and was found to be dressed In short
clothes that were secondhand and had
on a bonnet much too large. 1t was
wrapped in new cotton blanket andthere
were few old clothes in the basket and
the following note:
"Who ever will fine this Little Girl and
take care of the Saim will be rewarded.
Perhaps in the near future you will be
paid for fould Treat it kindly and you
will be Blessed by Its Loving Mother" D."
After keeping the baby few minutes
it was carried to Sheriff Hunter and put
in the care of the county. Our sympa-
thetic Supervisor E. c. Bruce will see that
it is tenderly cared for until proper dispo-
sition can be made of it. Investigation
is also being carried on looking to estab-
fishing its identity.

Baseball News.

The Aiken baseball team was defeated
by Bamberg at the park Thursday after
nool by score of to 2. Although
clearly outclassed by the sturdy men from
Aiken, the locals at no time lost heart,
and by punching their hits in the first
round and on account of several errors
on the part of the visitors, gained lead
which they never lost. A goodly num-
Der of both sexes were present, but little
enthusiasm was expressed owing to the
slowness of the game.
The home team took the inns with
Osteen at the bat. A pop to short and a
tumble started the game Bamberg, Hoff-
man and Gyles soon followed, being
punched by the pitcher. Before the Visi-
tors knew what was up, six men had
waltzed in on errors and light hits. With
no men down, Wise fell before Murray's
puzzlers, Kinard buzzed and Dukes pops
shy to first.
The visitors come'to the plate to lose
the ball; instead, however, Gyles proved
too many and, as result, Hogue beat the
atmosphere, Sommers succeeds in getting
the first bag on an error, Cogburn fails to
connect and Wyman makes three circles
in vain at the sphere.
The second and third rounds added
only goose eggs to both sides. With the
ending of the fourth, the visitors managed
to score their only runs. Wyman punched
the sphere high up in the air into the
right garden making the first bag on
Kinard's inexcusable error. Mitchell fol.
lowed to first, while Wyman busted the
plate on beautiful run. Mitchell came
| in before the last three in vain drove after
Gyles' menancers. Zeroes were made by
both up to the end, except one by the
home team in the 9Th. The game being
called on account of darkness at the enc

Miraculous Escape from Death.

Last Friday, Clarence, the four-year old
son of Mr.. and Mrs. J. II. Armstrong, had
a very narrow escape from death. He
with some other children were playing
near the railroad on Railroad Avenue,
and as the down local freight train passed
they all ran down near the track. CLARENCE
got too close, and was struck on the side
of his head by the steps of the caboose as
the train passed him. The accident was
witnessed by the train crew, and the train
was Immediately stopped and some of the
crew carried the little fellow home.
Fortunately the train was moving
slowly, and this no doubt accounts for the
fact that be was not instantly killed He
has a large bruised place on his head and
one of his limbs was also hurt. However
his injuries are not at all serious, and he
will soon be all right again.

cred,
Special to News-Democrat.

Salt Lake City, Utah, Aug. 19.-
Captain Thomas Phelps, aide-de-
camp to the Department G. A. R. Com
mander of Ohio, had an experience
with his roll of 1920 in greenbacks
that he will tell around the camp
fires" of the future.
Captain Phelps halls from Salem,
Ohio He is en- route to the San Fran
cisco reunion, and put up last night
in local hotel. Before retiring he
placed his roll of bills under his pill
low and was soon in dreamland.
Early this morning the Ohioan was
awakened by a noise in the room. He
felt under his pillow and his hand
touched what appeared to be his roll,
ana then he resumed his slumber.
When Captain Phelps arose he again
ran his hand under the pillow and
found that the roll had mysteriously
disappeared. He was greatly exer-
cised, and hied himself to the police
station.
Two detectives returned with him to
the house and an investigation was
made. Absolutely no clew could be
found. The search was on the point
of being abandoned when one detec-
tive noticed high place in the carpet
He at once pulled out the tacks. and
there was the roll, just 1920, the full
amount.
Captain Phelps was mystified, and sc
were the detectives. Finally the de-
tectives decided that gust of vino
had blown the money under the car
pet, but who pulled out the tacks and
again drove them in puzzled them. Al
for the girl who cleaned the rooms
she was not arrested. She said thai
she believed that the Captain hat
put 1t there in his sleep.
