In Congress Hall. yesterday. Capt. Charles
Conrad. Third United States Cavalry and
Acknowledgement of the Jefferson Guards,
is charged with committing the offence
complained Of
On account of the large crowd at the
nan, Capt. Conrad took personal charge of
the guards detailed to handle the crowd
Before Miss Keller appeared all the seats
were occupied and the aisles were filed
Among those standing near the front Of
the hall was Mrs. Gore. When word came
that Miss Keller and escort were approach
ing, orders were given to clear the aisles
Capt. Conrad ordered Mrs. Gore to move
back with the Others She replied that she
was member Of one of the worlds fair
juries of award and the wife Of foreign
commissioner The officer replied that
she would nevertheless have TO move as
the aisles would have to be cleared and
asked that she step between two rows of
chairs. Mrs. Gore turned her back on
the officer and stood her ground.
Capt. Conrad then called guard and or
dered him to escort Mrs Gore from the build
ing. The guard did SO, but with out using any
force, it Is stated. Mrs Gore complained
to her husband, who at once laid the matter
before President Francis, demanding an
apology for the insult to his wife. The
complaint said that unless an apology was
promptly rendered the commissioner would
be constrained to adopt drastic measures. I"
The complaint was forwarded by Presi-
dent Francis to Capt. Conrad. The latter
construed the language of the letter to
mean that unless suitable reparation was
made Commissioner Gore would seek per-
sonal satisfaction. Capt. Conrad, in reply,
declined to make an apology and urged the
commissioner to adopt any measures that
might seem best to him.
Commissioner Gore, after reading the
letter OF Capt. Conrad, made no comment,
but at noon to-day took train for Washing
ton. He said before leaving that he would
lay the matter before the War Department.

The

This is just tremendously
good story of a strong man and
strong woman grasping for
happinessr-a story SO good that
there is not any better mot novel,
but story)-anywhere on earth.
1t is written by born story tel
ler-no mere writer. 1t deals
with people who have red bio cd
in their veins and when you get
that, things happen. When it
was running serially people kept
writing in begging for advance
proofs, one reader pleading that
he had heart disease and feared
he might die before the story en-
ded.
The book-which by the way
is by Mrs. Thurston, rather a
new writer-has been out Just
seven days and in that short time:
The bookstores have sold out.
A new big edition has gone to press.
II Is already being made into play In England
and into a different play In America.
Requests have been received for translation into
French and German
The publishers rather expected
wide interest in the book, but not
quite so sudden an attack upon
the supply.
Thus far-and this is unusual
-every single review has been
not only good, but almost fever
ishly enthusiastic.

Bamberg Guards Inspected.

The passing of the annual inspection
Tuesday, March Goth, marked the pass
ing of another mile stone in the history
of the Bamberg Guards.
This is, as is always the case, an event
looked forward to with much interest
and no little apprehension by the average
military company. This the time that it
is the desire of every one concerned to
show up every favorable point and to be
able to respond to and execute the hard
est commands.
The complimentary words of the in
spectors, Col. Jno. NJ. Patrick, of Colum-
bia, and Capt. Gilmore, of the Z. S. A.,
stationed at Savannah, were enough to
convince every one that the company
was up to the standard of efficiency re-
quired by the new law, which was very
gratifying to those who have worked hard
to make it success.
The attendance was not what it should
have been by any means, but the condi-
ton and the handling of the arms was
pronounced excellent.
From here the inspectors went to
Orangeburg to inspect the two companies

A Word Personal.

This newspaper feels pardonable
pride in the growth of its business dur
ing the past year. 1t is true we have
gone to a great deal of expense during
the last few months to enlarge and i'm
prove the paper, but results have amply
justified the wisdom of such course. Our
subscription list is larger than it ever
was, and more of the subscribers are paid
in advance. The advertising patronage
has increased wonderfully, and is now
almost double what it was some time ago.
Our job printing department has also
kept pace with the increase. We have
turned out during the past four months
more than double the amount of job
work ever done by this Office during the
same length Of time.
All this is especially gratifying to the
management, and We feel like telling our
friends and patrons about it, for we feel
sure they are interested in the paper and
its success. 1t is our desire to stay close
to the people and let them feel an inter-
est in the paper and its editor, for we
want to make it essentially the peoples
paper-one that will represent them in
every respect. .
The growth of our business demands
new and more improved machinery and
material. To this end We have. disposed
of some presses and in the next few
weeks will install new and larger job
press as we'll as lot of new type and
other material for the better and more
quick dispatch of work. We have been
handicapped in the matter of presses for
some time, but we feel that with the ad-
dition of this new machine We will be
able to take care of every job of printing
that comes our way. We are grateful
for the business heretofore given US, and
we can promise better service for the
future. To the end that this Office may
become worthy representative of live,
progressive Bamberg and its people, we
ask the support and patronage Of all, as
suring them that they will get value re-
csived for every dollar spent with US.
