As to Congressman Croft,

Nh. A. W. Knight, Editor The Bam-
berg Herald-Dear Sir: Sometime ago
I wrote to Col. Geo. W. Croft, our con-
gresham, and asked him to try andsecures
an appropriation for draining the lower
part Of this county and thereby prevent,
hemorrhagic fever, which causes the death
of an appalling number Of people every;
season. In this letter informed him OF:
the fact that the condition had been call
ed to the attention of the governor and
had been taken up by the State board Of
health, but that no funds. were. available
for relieving the situation. Col. Croft
ignored the letter, probably because this
section did not vote for him In the last
primary, and he has done absolutely noShs
ing for the relief of his suffering con-
stituents in this section. AT the same
time it is reported by the papers that Col
Croft has asked for sixty thousand doi-
lar appropriation for public building In
Aiken. Ny object in writing this IS to|
call the facts to the attention of the people;
and let them judge for themselves as 10;
whether we have q congressman who Isl
represens ling all of the people in the
District or not. Respectfully,
JNo. F. Fox.

Bertie's Presence Of Mind.

When Farmer Reynolds espied young
Bertie Thompson industriously collecting
the apples from the topmost branches Of
his best tree he stole back to the farm
house and unhitched the stuffed image of
Pongo, his greatly mourned sheep dog.
from the parlor sideboard, says Tit-Bits.
And 10! in few minutes the stuffed dog
had been placed at the foot of the tree.
Farmer Reynolds then proceeded with
the business of the farm, and the men
wondered why every now and then he
chucked nightly.
An hour went by, and behold! Farmer
Reynolds was once more at the foot Of
the tree.
"Helloa, Bertie, lad' he cried. "What
ye doin' up my tree, eh?"
Bertie was pale and quivering with
fright; but he had not altogether lost his
presence Of mind.
"P.Please, sir" he shivered, ''that great,
big dog down there" pointing to the
well-preserved Pongo, she chased me,
he did, all over yonder medder, an,-an' I
'ad to climb this treeto get out of his way!'

New Bridge Road.

The road across over the Edisto river
at the new bridge, which goes to Orange
burg, is now one of the very best highways
in this section. Some time ago the Bam-
berg county and town chain gang put this
road in fine fix from the river to town.
Since that time it has been worked on the
Orangeburg side, and now one can drive
through the swamp without the risk of
breaking their vehicle. You can now go
in trot from Bamberg clear across the
river for miles, as all the sand beds have
been clayed, it is a good hard road, and
there are no rough places in it. There is
only one piece of road that is likely to
give trouble. This is just across the
swamp, where lot of clay has been
thrown up for some distance. This place
will cut up badly in wet weather unless
some sand is put there.

Carried it Too Far.

AChicago millionaire, George T. Cline,
had an extraordinary hobby. He was a
connoisseur of Irishmen; on himself he
would never spend more than Is or 20
cents day, he thought nothing of buying
Irishmen sumptuous dinners, with cham
pagne, in order to hear them talk in their
musical brogue. An Irishman once
played Colonel Cline false. He stole a
pair of boots from him. Discovering the
theft, the millionaire pursued the Irish
man, oyertaking him as he was about to
enter a pawnshop with the boots in his
hand. ''These are my boots; you have
stolen them" said Colonel Cline. "Sure
it was only JOKE" said the Irishman.
But the inexorable millionaire hauled the
thief before a magistrate, and here again
the man repeated. 1T was only joke,
your honor" "Only joke, hey:'' said the
magistrate. "Well, Mr.. Cline, how far
away from your house had he carried the
boots when you overlook him?' "Over a
mile, sir" replied the millionaire. Held
for court" said the magistrate. "This is
a case of carrying the joke too far"

A Cross Breed.

A buxom negro woman who had cooked
for number of years in the family of a
Jewess announced to her mistress one
morning her intention of quitting the
job.
"Why are you goingto leave US Mary?'
inquired the Hebrew lady.
, "Well Missus," explained the cook.
"rs gwintah git married"
"That won't make any difference said
the lady, 'there's room enough in the yard
for you and your husband; you don't have
to leave because you're going to be mar
ried."
"But,," replied the colored woman
sheepishly, "you don't know who rs
gwinetah mary" and, without giving the
Jewess time to ask further questions, she
said, "rs gwintah mary a Chinee, Missus."
The employer raised her hands in holy
horror. "Oh Mary" she said, "have you
thought of what you're going to do?"
"Oh, yas, .Ma'am," said Mary; "we's
thought about tive loves each uddah,
Missus."
81 don't mean that" said the Jewess,
"I'm thinking about your children, Mary.
Have you thought about what they'll be?'

meek submission and intending no insult,

QUARTERLY CONFERENCE.
Building Committee Appointed to
Erect a New Methodist Church.

The fourth and last quarterly confer
ence for the Bamberg charge for this year
was held at the church here Wednesday
of last week, Presiding Elder Marion
Dargan presiding. At this conference
the work ofthe year was rounded up: and
final reports made. The financial reports
were very good, and showed that this
church would meet all claims upon it in
full.
The building committee for a new
church was also appointed by the confer
encc, and is as follows: 81. J. Brabham,
Jno. II. Cope, G. Frank Bamberg, Jno'
F. Folk, and J. A. Spann.
This committee held meeting last Mon
day afternoon at three o'clock at the bank,
and great deal of enthusiasm was shown
by those present. 1t was decided that the
church be built as soon as possible. Mr.
81. j. Brabham was made chairman and
treasurer and Col. Jno. F. Folk secretary.
Plans and specifications for the building
will be gotten at once and a design decid-
ed on, for the first thing is to find out
about what the ediice will cost. As soon
as the design is selected, the work of rails
ing funds will begin.
1t is very likely that the new church
will be built on the parsonage lot, the par
sonage being moved back and fronting
the cross street. The church, if built here,
will be in the center of the lot, with
entrances from both streets. One great
advantage of changing the present To-
cation is that the old church can be used
for worship while the new one is being
erected.

Good Reason For Prayer.

Aminadab Jones was Yankee grocer
in an Illinois town, who had made a
handsome fortune-not like the proverb-
ial Kentuckian, by minding his own busi'
ness-but in the grocery line-watering
his whiskey, sanding his sugar, foreclos-
ing mortgages, adding to his book ac-
count on the sly and other ways known
to storekeepers, from time immemorial.
Thinking it best to deodorize his repu-
tation in the community he took pew
in the Presbyterian church-the biggest
in the place-and was admitted to their
communion. His reputation followed
him and in the course Of month the
brethren were all by the ears about
Brother Aminadab, and he was quietly
excommunicatcd.
He then Joined the Baptist and they
had like experience-he "spiled so quick
after comm out O the water" as the
Maine skipper said Of the pullock-Baptist,
that he was turned out of that close COM
munion also. He then, as last chance for
the Kingdom of Heaven, Joined the
Methodists, and in about three weeks they
also we're in a quarrel about Brother
Jones.
The poor preacher, at loss what to do
for his people under these conditions,
went over one Sunday morning to consult
the wisest of his church members on the
painful subject. As he went up the steps of
the good mans house he overheard him
at morning prayer and waited till he
should close. What was his horror to
hear the pious brother thus express him
self: "And if it be Thy holy will, o Lord,
wilt Thou promptly remove our Brother
Jones from this world and send him
straight to hell"
The preacher could wait no longer, but
pressed in, saying: Brother Smith, am
amazed that any Christian should be
wicked enough to pray as I have. just
heard your
"Wait minute elder" was the calm
reply: stlet me explain it. If the Lord
would remove Brother Jones from earth
weshould be out of our troubles, shouldn't t
wei"
The parson assented.
"And if he were sent to hell he would
break up that institution in less than six
weeks"

A NEGRO BRUTE LYNCHED.
THE USUAL CRIME HAPPENS IN
DORCHESTER COUNTY.
Attempted Rape Upon Young Lady
Wretch Trsiled by Blo0dhounds
to His Hiding Place.

ST.. GEORGE, Nov. 28.-To be chroni'
cled in the annals of crime for Dorchester
county is the deed of rape fend, and his
summary punishment at the hands OF In
furiated citizens.
Another white home has been-despoiled
and another poor brute has been hunted
with hounds and bored with buckshot.
News was received here last night OF
an assault by a negro upon young lady
at Ross, station about eight miles distant
from here, at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon
and Immediately posse from this place
left for the scene of the trouble.
Before night there was gathered in the
Quiet little town of Ross mob aggregat'
ing 200 or 300 men from the adjacent
towns and country, bent upon vengeance
Bloodhounds were put on the trail at
1:sO o'clock this morning. and before many
hours passed they had bounded to his den
John Fogle,a negro, the perpetrator OF
the heinous crime.
Speedily he was brought before his
victim and identified.
The mob then, with the victim, hasten
ed into the woods near swamp, where
the fellow had been captured, and there
to tell the dark story, is to be seen the
negro's body pendant from the limb OF a
tree, riddled with shot.
Fortunately, by the brave fight OF the
lady, who is a member of prominent
family, the brute failed in his diabolical
purpose, but the lady was badly bruised
by being choked. 1t has ever been the
proud boast of Dorchester county that he1
criminal animals contained no record OF
this heinous crime.
