Visit of EntOmOlOgist.

Mr.. Chas. f. Chambliss, of Clemson
College, State Entomologist, was IN Bam-
berg last Thursday. He is making tour
of the counties where the grain louse IS
especially active and where its ravages
are the most damaging. He visited
several fields of oats near town, and says
the insect which is destroying the oats in
this section is the same that is doing SO
much damage in other parts OF the State
The Herald man had quite pleasant In
terview with Mr.. Chambliss while here,
with the view of obtaining all the infor-
nation possible, for the benefit OF our
farmers.
Mr.. Chambliss says at this late season
of the year there is no practical remedy
to check the insect, that there is no use to
put on nitrate of soda, paris green, lime,
ETC., because it will be simply money
thrown away These remedies might
avail something, but he says the louise is
being destroyed by parasite (Which fol-
lows the louse) more rapidly than any
agency that can be used by man. He
showed US specimens of the parasite as
we'll as the louise, and explained the mat
ter thoroughly. The parasite is what IS
commonly called the LADY bug" and he
showed US specimens in its various stages
of development. He also showed US
another small parasite, which is very
much like small fly. This also destroys
the grain louise by singing it, causing 1t
to die.
Mr.. Chambliss says that nature has
providentially provided s remedy for the
louse which is much more effective than
anv man can use Had it not been for
the work of these parasites in destroying
the louse, he says every field of oats at
tackled by them would have been literally
ruined His idea in visiting these counties
is to save the farmers from needless eX'
pense in the way of applying remedies:
Mr.. Chambliss also expressed desire
TO eet in closer touch with the farmers OF
1.-The State, most of whom he is sure are
directly interested in Entomology. Many
a farmer often has need forinformatiol
along this line, and he will be only toe
glad to supply it. He therefore asked thu
editor of this paper to refer all inquiries
of this sort to him. So whenever any o
our farmers want information regarding
any kind of insect, if they will write II
or even give us message, we Will com
municate with Mr.. Chambliss, who VII
be pleased to give all the information
possible, making his reply practical 81
that it will be of use to the planter.

A War Incident.

EDITOR THE BAMBERG HERALD:
note from your correspondent at Pine
Vile, n. c., in reference to Governor
Tance's return to his mountain home just
after the surrender from Raleigh, which
brings to my mind little incident in my
life, which is so striking as to make me
believe that | was the green boy" whom
he came in contact with.
was captured by Sherman's army on
the 18th of February, 1865. Three days
afterwards mady my escape in the Con
garee swamps near Columbia. 1t was
some time before l could return to my
command for duty, on account Of being
in the enemy's rear.
On or about the 7th day of April / re,
ported for duty at Smithtield, N. c., about
forty miles East of Raleigh. found my
regiment under orders to 60 to the above
place. We marched that evening and all
night and arrived in the capital city the
next morning about sunrise. Not having
done much service since my escape, /
found myself broken down and unable to
keep up with my company. About three
miles West of Raleigh there was a long
freight train stopped for orders. 1t hap
pened that l was right in the centre of
this train when it stopped. l discovered
that the planks had been ripped off the
head end of a car, so | crawled into it;
about this time the train moved off. |
found myself in car with a man in citi-
zen clothes, two old mules and
wagon, one horse, and few barrels and
boxes in the front of car. About this
time the gentleman, WHO was standing at
the opposite door, discovered my being in
car and at once pulled his gun and ordered
me to get off, l was in no humOr to obey
his orders for several reasons. I discov-
cred right under my feet an old box with
ten or twelve old army muskets. do
not remember any remark that | made to
the man, but at once caught up one of
these old muskets, cooked and covered
him with it. He saw l had the drop on
him, and called out: Put down that
gun, you id fool; it might be loaded"
l promptly obeyed him. He put up his
gun and l returned the musket to the box
and went over to him and reported my
condition to him, telling him would stop
over at Greensboro and wait on my COM
mand. 1t was not long before We were
the best of friends. He was so cordial
and jolly, hightoned and gentlemanly to-
wards me, that I was ashamed to ask his
name. We landed at Greensboro about
five o'clock that evening. bid him an
farewell. While have told
this little incident hundreds of times to
my family and friends, l never once
until read this Pineville item,
that I may have met this great man on
this occasion but never knew it.

 Alderman Scheibie seconded the mo- ton. When the question on the substi- ute was put, the mover urged that such action be taken. He said the city owns a water works system which is not pay ing investment due to present opposition. He urged that the purchase of the Bien- vile plant would have to come ultimate ly and the sooner action was taken the better. The substitute was lost to 2.

THE THIRD WARD UNION
IT WILL HAVE A MASS MEETING
 TONIGHT.
All Citizens Interested in Reform Movement Invited to Attend at Court House-Mayoralty
 Candidates are Busy.

The Citizens Municipal Union of Ward will meet tonight at 7:3o o'clock at the Montgomery County Court House and will receive the report of the Executive Committee of the Union, which will sub init plans for the coming city campaign.
 The meeting is not only for the citizens of the Third Ward, but everyone in Mont gomery interested in the object of the Union has been invited to attend the meeting.
 The Union was organized some time ago for the purpose of reforming municipal politics and establishing the principle of the office seeking the man and not the man seeking the office. The organization is full of enthusiasm and over 260 mem- bers have been enrolled. Capt. William Jones. prominent wholesale merchant, was elected President, and the indications are that the Union will figure largely in the campaign before the April primary.
 It is said that the Union may endorse one of the announced candidates for Mayor or may bring out a new man for the office.
 The meeting will adjourn at an early hour to enable those present to attend the meeting of the Educational Confer ence at the Montgomery Theatre.
 In the meantime the candidates for the Mayoralty are not inactive. Candidates for Mayor and Aldermen are busy vote- getting. and cards and other methods of advertising are evident on the streets.
 Every ward in the city has produced one or more candidates for Mayor. From Ward i. there Is E. J. Meyer; from Ward 2. J. T. Andrew; from Ward 3, Thomas H. Carr; from Ward 1, Charles P. An derson, John G. Finley and W. E. Hay- good; from Ward 5, J. H. Hartley, and from Ward 6, James Toole.

INSIST THAT oSTEOPATHS
 SHOULD BE EXAMINED.
Mrs. Ligon of Mobile Replies to Drs.
 Andrews, Sanders and Gaston. \ Capt. Falkner Favors Il New Science.

The regular school physicians were heard yesterday by the Judiciary Com
 nittee of the House of Representatives on the question of admitting osteopaths to practice in this State without requiring them to pass the regularly prescribed medical examination.
 In accordance with an arrangement made at the hearing accorded Mrs. Green wood Ligon an osteopathic practitioner of Mobile, representing the osteopaths, Saturday. number of the prominent phy- sicians of the city were yesterday &C., corded an opportunity of presenting their views on the bill by MT. Benners of Jef- ferson in behalf of the osteopaths now pending in the House.
 Dr. Glenn Andrews of Montgomery, President of the State Medical Associa- fion was the first speaker. He took strong grounds against the proposed in- novation. characterizing the efforts of the osteopaths as calculated to ;ndo the laws of the State regarding the practcie of medicine. which had prevailed for twenty five years, and proved of inestimable benefit to the State. He declared the law as it now stands involves no discrimi- nation against any school of medicine. that it is wholly non-sectarlan. The State merely decrees that physicians shall pass a regular examin1ti on; that if the osteopaths choose to come into the State they may do so with the fullest freedom and without fear of discrimina- tion or unfair treatment of any kind, but that they must come in the regular way, which he regarded as the only way assuring the safety of the rublic against the practice of incompetent practitioners.
 Dr. J. B. Gaston of Montgomery fol- lowed Dr. Andrews. He held that the passage by the Legislature of the bill now before it. would result in a lowering of the standard of medical education. He contended that the functions of the Board of Medical Examiners were exercised in . strictly impartial manner, and that the law now fin force had been a measure of great protection to the people of the State.
 pr. w. H. Sanders. State Health Ofi- cer, recounted the rise in the past one Thousand years of many alleged schools of medicine, most of which had fallen and been forgotten. while the legitimate medical school had gone steadily on in its researches and achievements. With these pretended schools he chased osteo- pathy. The one great feature of the Nxaaopathic system, he said, is massage.

The keys were secured and the jail doors opened. Miss Alldredge states that Mur- phree seemed to be reckless and showed a disposition to release all the prisoners. However. he was induced not to.
