was rear end collision at this place this
evening, in which an excursion train from

irrita.ions, pains, agonies, inAammations' and
swelines peculiar to rheumatism, faine S
Celery Compound should be used without

Oar Educational Institutions.

Among the institutions in our town
which should be the pride Of our citizens
are the Carlisle Fitting School and the
graded school, Prof. H. &. Sheridan, Il
teacher of twenty-three years experience
in successful school work, is the Head
Master of the one; and Prof, N NJ. Salley,
a teacher of six years successful work in
the school-room, is the principal of the
other. These institutions are great factors
contributing to the manhood and woman
hood of our young people. They both
deserve and expect the support of our
people. Tuition in the one necessarily is
$3.50 per session in the other it is free,
being supported by taxation. We do not
hesitate to say that both these institutions
ought to be supported by our people. The
graded school will be supported. The ques-
ton is: Will the Fitting School be sup
ported? We understand that last year
tifty-eight young people came from other
sections of the State to obtain the train
ing there offered from the town Of Bam-
berg came ten. We learn that those who
have finished the graded school can obtain
an advanced course in mathematics, phys
les, literature, history, Latin and Greek in
the Post class at the Fitting School.
This then is an excellent opportunity for
those who do not go from graded school
to college to complete their education at
the Fitting School. Then the advantages
of literary societies and libraries are i'm
portant in the training of our young peo-
pie Fine advantages are offered in the
music department under Miss Watson, an
experienced teacher.
We hope to see larger attendance from
the town, showing to those on the outside
that Bamberg takes pride in this institu.
ton and that it is considered as part of
her educational system. Through Prot:
Sheridan an invitation is extended to all
who are interested in the institution to
be present Wednesday, September 23rd,

We do not like to put duns in the paper,

have accumulated during the summer,
and we need the money due US. Now
don't neglect this matter, for If you DO
you are liable to forget it and we will be

An Abrupt Departure.

Because he thought it more profitable
from financier's standpoint to pocket
the money received for bale of cotton,
than to stay home and pay his debts,
Daniel Jackson, a negro who lived out at
Crouch Hole" left friends, family, and
property to seek other lands. Jackson
was trusty negro, we'll thought OF and
very thrifty. By honest work he had ac-
cumulated some property and at the same
time a record which invited the trust OF
those with whom he dealt to be imposed
in him. Considerable surprise was ex'
pressed by those who knew him, when
they heard of his abrupt disappearance
But debts accumulated must be paid OF
either with honest pay or by the sacri'
flee of good name.

The sign of activity on every side IS an
invitation for an investment OF your
money in home industry.
ANY one going the rounds of our town
these DAYS will be struck with the signsc..
activity to be seen on every side, activity
which means improvement, not easygolng
carelessness The work down at the on
mill has placed that enterprise above all
nearby competitors for the cotton SEED
trade and ginning. Seven gins of seventy
saws each have recently been placed un-
der one roof, and the business being done
is very gratifying to the directors. BE-
tween seventy and eighty bales are daily
ginned.
The repairs at the cotton mills have
been thorough, the plant being renovated
from top to bottom The boilers have been
changed in position, being placed on
new foundation, and new furnaces have
been built. A reservoir of 100000 gallons
has been constructed, this being a long
needed necessity. Everything Is being
put in splendid condition, and when the
hum of the wheels begins again on the
first of October there will be no hitch
The resetting of the boilers and other
improvements are being carried on under
the supervision of Mr. Miscally of the
Riverside Iron Works of Charleston.
The large stable of G.. Frank Bamberg
is being added to on a large scale. A
building So feet by 10S feet is being built
lust in rear of his sale stables and will
reach back to his other stable, making
room for the accommodation OF two
hundred head of horses. The upper story
of the building will be occupied by bug
gies and carriages. This speaks well tor
our town, for it shows that the citizens
have faith in the future Of the city and
do not hesitate to invest their money.
The young mems dormitory OF the
Fitting School has undergone consider
able amount of improvement during the
summer The place has been fixed up on
the inside, and new iron bedsteads placed
in all the rooms. The campus is being
moved and cleaned and when school
opens next Wednesday the Fitting School
campus will present good appearance.
The stores of Messrs. Counts and
Pearlstine are being pushed to completion
and will be ready for occupancy in a short
while. The material for the stores OF
Messrs. H. T.. and J. F. Folk has been
placed on their lot and work will very
probably begin shortly.
The Southern Railway will no doubt
place a new fence around the flower
garden at. the depot before long. The
old one has about served its purpose, and
q new one is next in order.

still sulkily, and with the briefest saluta-
ton to the pastor and his daughter, made
his way directly downstairs, resolved that
IL there was to be any misunderstanding
in the lee of opened doors, he would not be
the man to spoil sport.
But, all unconsciously, Cavalier coun-
tered him, and with a parting salutation as
brief but far more gracious, intimated that
since he had business with this gentleman
which would in nowise stand over, It would
be convenient for them to depart forth,

home, and knowing in addition that about
that hour her fathers lodger must be be-
taking himself to keep his appointment
with Jean Cavalier, q wholly unexpected
and unauthorized interview took place in
the doorway OF the westermost tower by
the Templar's Gate of La Cavalerie.
Frances Wildwood was hurrying home.
It was already late in the autumnal after
noon. Her father would be there waiting
for the cup Of tea which only she could
brew for him, or (more likely having
waited in vain, he would be gone out TO
complete his surfeit of good works." as
she irreverently called his rounds of ex-
hortation and visitations among the poor
of La Cavalerie.
Suddenly Pierre the WAGNER stood before
her. He appeared cloaked and hated from
the dark Of the entry. With a certain for
getfulness of his assumed position he held
out his hand to Flower-o'-the-Cor frankly
and freely as one Of her own nation might
have done.
II have again to thank you for saving
my life" he said. 81 did not venture to
trouble you yesterday morning with a for
NAL visit, because / saw you had other mat
ters to occupy you. But now / do! The
preservation of my life may not be much
to be thankful for. 1t is Of small value to
anyone but myself, but such as It is am
no way likely to have another and am
grateful to you for saving the one have.
I know-there is something stupid in the
u%ttering OF such things, but briefy If there
is anything in your life in which a man can
help you, think Of Pierre the wagoner!"
II thank YOU" said Corn
coldly, but in case OF need TO which camp

She was thinking OF the suit Of French
clothes wrapped up by his servant so care
fully in their coverings Of rough mating.

with confusion.
