BRANcHv1LLE, Oct. ga regular com.
munication of the Branchville lodge, A..
F. NJ, was held Friday night, the 10th
inst, in the city hall, the regular meeting
place of the lodge. There were four can

of apprentice. There were number of
other lodges represented at this meeting,
among them Blackville Bamberg, Orange
burg, St. Matthews, st. George, Smoaks,
Hope, and Walterboro. Altogether there
were about a hundred visiting members
of the order present. This lodge is in q
very prosperous and growing condition,
by some of the best material of the COM
munity. Mr.. Jno. R. Bellinger, of Bam-
berg, grand master of the State, was
present at this meeting and assisted
Worshipful Master j. B. Williams in
raising the candidates. At the proper
time banquet was served at the railroad

TRIED TO KILL HiMSEH.

P. B. Love, Of Cherokee County, Tries to
Commit Suicide.
GAFFNEY, Oct. 24-Mr P. B. Love, a
resident of Cherokee county, attempted
to commit suicide few miles from this
city early Saturday morning. Mr.. Love
was until recently resident of this city
but was removed to the country about
month ago when he was stricken with
paralysis. The attempt to take his life
was made with an old knife that had been
in use in cutting tobacco. His throat was
gashed with the knife seven times but
although some of the cuts narrowly
escaped the jugular vein it was not cut
Mr.. Love had been in ill health for some
time and this coupled with the stroke OF
paralysis had recently caused him to be-
come very despondent and to attempt to
take his own life.
Mr.. Love is not dead, and it is impos'
sible to say at this time the extent OF his
injuries.

Old Homestead Quartet.

The first number of the Carlisle Fitting
School Lyceum course was given last
Saturday evening by the Old Homestead
Quartette.
If the first attraction may be taken as
specimen of what will appear here
under this management, the lyceum de-
serves to succeed. The appreciation ex'
pressed from time to time during the
evening, and comments heard afterward,
certainly are suficint guarantee that the
people here will back with money this
course. The singing, while not so splen'
did, perhaps, as some that has been heard
here, still approached the high standard
usually set by lyceum boards. 1t is to be
hoped that such a course will become
permanently established here.
The next attraction will be about the
latter part of November.

Electric Lights for Bamberg.

Now that our citizens have decided that
they want electric lights under municipal
ownership, and have voted for the bonds
and elected board of public works, they
can rest assured that matters will be
pushed forward as rapidly as possible. 1t
will be the intention of the board to put
the plant into operation as soon as it can
be done, but due consideration must be
given to the matter before acting, for
mistakes made at the outset will be hard
to remedy.
It is the duty of city council to issue
the bonds, and this will be done at an
early date. In the meantime the board
will be getting all the information and
data available as to the plant, for we all
want to see Bamberg have the very best
plant We can buy. Still we want to get it
at as reasonable cost as possible. While
we want good up.to-date electric light
system, we have no money to spend on
unnecessary fixtures or machinery.

Mass Meeting.

In obedience to the call for mass meet
ing of citizens to nominate three men as
as board of public works, published in
this paper last week, about twenty-five
citizens met in the town hall last Thurs
day evening. Mayor G. Moye Dickinson
presided and A. W. Knight acted as Sec
retary. The duties of the commissioners
were defined by E. T. LaFitte, Esq, and
the matter was discussed by several gen.
tlemen.
Then nominations were made, and Col
:Jno. F. Folk, Messrs. C. R. Brabham, and
J. A. Byrd were nominated and declared
the choice of the meeting for members OF
the board. These were only the three
nominations, and the meeting then ad-
iourned.

What He Overlooked.

A western lawyer recounts story OF a
trial he once witnessed in Texas court.
A hard looking tough was the defendant.
His counsel, in voice apparently husky
with emotion, addressed the jury some
thing in this wise:
"Gentlemen, my client is poor man.
he was driven by hunger and want to take
small sum of money. All that he wanted
was sufficient funds wherewith to buy
bread, for it is in evidence that he did not
take the .pocketbook containing $500 that
was in the same bureau drawer"
At this point the counsel for the defense
was interrupted by the conyulsive sobs OF
his client.
"Here, man. exclaimed the judge" "why
are you crying so?"
Because, your honor" replied the de-
fendant, "because I didn't see der pocket
book in de drawer?'

Rooseyelt's Southern Trip.

1t is really good sign of the times to
note the very cordial reception which has
greeted the President on his tour OF the
South. That all party lines may be rele-
gated to the rear for the time being at
least, is particularly pleasing, for there
are times when the differences which
nominates one man Democrat and anoth-
er Republican, should be forgotten that
all NAV rise up and say "Our President"
It is this which makes Us prosperous
people, this spirit of one purpose, and that
the perpetuation and perfection of great
National Republic.
There was time when Roosevelt the
man acted unwisely toward the South,
but now he rises above Roosevelt the man
to become the peoples President. May
his trips South be more frequent in the
future than they have been in the past.

Miss Missouri johnson.

Miss Missouri johnson died at the
home of her brother, Mr.. s. W. johnson,
Friday morning. Miss johnson had been
sick for only few days, with what was
apparently slight attack of fever, be-
fore the time of her death, and when
death came it was unexpected by her
friends. It seems that there was a giving
away of the heart and death came with
out delay.
Miss johnson had been living here for
several years past, making her home with
her brother, the proprietor of the John.
son hotel. The burial services were con.
Quoted by Rev. W. T. Duncan of the
Methodist church, of which denomina-
ton she was a consistent member. The
interment was at the old cemetery in this
city.

Placing the Responsibility.

A small boy, not more than seven OF
eight years of age, was once sent to the
Office of Brooklyn school principal fol
some offense. The principal saw the little
fellow had an unusually straightforward
and honest appearance, so he concluded
to lead up to the proper punishment fol
the young offender by asking him few
questions.
"If you were teacher what would you
do with q boy who acted as you did this
morning in the classroom" he asked.
"Td send him to the principal, prompt
ly replied the boy.
What do you think the principal ought
to do with such a boy?" continued the
questioner.
"That's up to you," was the reply.
The boy escaped punishment.

Thursday, Oct. 26, 1905

President Roosevelt loves the South
20 much, it appears to us it is time he was
making some practical showing to estab'
lish his claims. Nice words are well
enough, but what we want is deeds
Mere professions don't count for much
with Us.
Wade Plummer, the boy hero of Lam
Ar, Darlington county, has received a
medal of honor from the Carnegie hero
fund commission, and $500 for education
al purposes. This is an honor justly be-
slowed. Plummer saved companion
from drowning by risking bis own life.
Let this example be an encouragement
for other boys and men to do something
for their fellow man.

Mrs. Mcmillan Burned to Death.

Mrs. Cary Mcmillan was burned at her
home near Cope Monday morning and
died from the effects few hours later.
It seems that Mrs. Mcmillan was
feeble, being seventy-three years OF age,
and while in her room alone, attempted
70 rise from her chair and in so doing
fell forward toward the fire. Before she
could regain control of herself, the flames
had caught herssclothing. She rushed to
the piazza, where her invalid son who was
abed in an adjoining room, soon followed
her. With hands, bare he tried to extin'
puish the flames which now enveloped
the aged lady, and in so doing had his
hands severely burned. For four hours
she fingered, suffering great pain from
her horrible experience. But to the end,
save a few minutes preceding death, she
retained consciousness, and fought the
grim battle of death with remarkable
fortitude.
Mrs. Mcmillan is survived by her hus-
band and two children, Mr.. W. Frank
Mcmillan and Miss Mary Mcmillan; and
the following brothers and sisters: Mrs.
81. j. Brabham, of this place; Mrs. E. 4.
Cleckley, of Cope; Mrs. A. G. Faust, of
Columbia; Messrs. P. P. Jennings, of
Winder, Ca, and A. s. Jennings, of Cope.
The funeral services were held Tues
day morning at eleven o'clock at Old
Union Church, the interment following
At the cemetery of the church.
