School Site Selected.

The building committee for the new
graded school building held meeting
last Monday morning and decided on a
site for the building. They were regoti-
ating for several lots, and finally decided
to buy the O'Neal property on lower
Main Street, opposite the residence occu-
pied by Mr.. Spann Steadman. The lot
contains three acres, and the price paid
was 81 $50. Itcontains cottage of several
rooms, now occupied by Mr. O'Neai, a
barn, stables, etc. 1t is the purpose of the
committee to move the dwelling On one
corner of the lot and fix it up for the use
of the superintendent of the school, thus
placing him where he can take good care
of the school building. The committee
expect to begin work on the building at
an early date, and the bonds will no
doubt be offered for sale in very short
time

Baseball News.

The baseball spirit in Bamberg just
now has the right of way. Our boys have
organized crack team, and we will no
doubt witness some good games here
during the summer. The park is to be
fenced in this week, a lease having been
obtained upon the ground for term OF
five wears. A number of other improve
ments will also be made at the park, and
it is to be hoped that our people will
literally patronize this fascinating sport
during the season and thus encourage the
young men who are endeavoring to
furnish entertainment for the dull summer
months.
There will be three good games here
next week, on Monday, Tuesday and
Wednesday, when the team from Waynes-
boro, Ca, will come here for three games.
These games will no doubt be fine exhi-
bitions, as Waynesboro has semi-pro-
fessional team.

Ehrhardt's DiSpensary.

The county board of control has re-
ceiyed a letter from the State board in re-
gard to the Ehrhardt dispensary matter.
Two petitions were presented: one to
close the dispensary at that place and one
against. The State board has declined to
act in the matter, and give as their reason
that no charges were preferred by those
who wish the dispensary closed. Mr..
Williams wrote the letter for the board,
and states that the legislature has given
authority for the opening of dispensaries,
and for his board to close them simply on
the ground that the signers to the petit
tion are opposed to the sale of liquor In
any form, would be an attempt at legisla-
ton on their part. So they declined to
take action, and it is likely that the dis
pensary at Ehrhardt is fixture.
