New Short Train.

The new train of the Southern Rail-
way between Blackville and Kingville
was put on last Sunday. 1t passes Bam-
berg at 8 o'clock in the morning and
runs to Kingville. This train was put
on merely to insure connection with the
Columbia train for the up-country, and is
of absolutely no service beyond that. It
has no schedule returning and does not
carry passengers on the return trip. The
railroad could hardly have devised a
more expensive proposition for so little
pood

Sad Deaths.

Two sad deaths occurred in the Bu-
ford's Bridge section of this county last
week. On Wednesday Mr.. Barnie Kearse,
a most estimable young man, died of
pneumonia, and while the funeral and
burial was occurring at the family ceme-
terry, news came that his mother, Mrs.
Allie Kearse, was dead. She suffered
from heart failure and evidently the
shock of her sons death proved too
much for her weak constitution after days
and nights of anxiety and nursing. She
was buried last Thursday morning.

Ladies Shined Shoes.

WASHINGTON, May 1.-The ladies of
All Souls Unitarian church have hit
upon the novel expedient of shining the
shoes of the male members of the congre-
CATION of that church as means of rails
ing money to aid the sufferers from the
California earthquake.
About 25 of them were thus occupied
at the parlors of the church three days

San Francisco Fire.
Atlanta, Ga., April 80, 1906.

John F. Folk,
Agt. Ins. Co. of North America,
Bamberg, 8. G.
Dear Strive indulge the hope that
the magnitude of the losses in San Fran
cisco to many companies may be much
over-estimated. Pending unavoidable de-
lay in ascertaining this, however, it will
be, of course, gratifying to you and our
policy holders to know that the old In.
surance Company of North America is
fully prepared to meet the situation, and
will pursue the conservative course in
business which has marked its honorable
career of more than hundred years, in
which time every obligation has been
fulfilled, and it has paid out to policy
holders more than $123, ,0000 900 in losses.
The past record of more than century
of this reliable old Company and its
splendid condition commands absolute
confidence. Yours very truly,
EDWARD s. GAY,
Manager.

The city of Orangeburg is to hold an
election on the question of issuing bonds
for $4,000 to install sewerage system.
The citizens of Newberry in few
hours subscribed $4,000 to Newberry
college. This means that liberal en-
dowment is about to be realized for the
college.
A white man named Melton Lackey
was struck by lightning during the thun-

stantly killed. 1t occurred at Paxville,
Clarendon county.
State Superintendent of Education o.
B. Martin says the school trustees in
Marlboro county who refused to accept
dispensary money for their schools, vio-
lated the law in doing so.
The old Columbia Female college build

is to be remodeled and turned into hotel
for tourists. Messrs. F. H. Hyatt and
A. E. Gonzales are at the head of the

The Banner Tobacco Warehouse at
Timmonsville was burned Wednesday
afternoon causing loss of $4,000. The

house to be burned there in the past few
weeks.
Governor Hayward proposes to see that
the State bonds stolen from the Office of
the State treasurer are paid for. They
were stolen by clerk in the office it is
claimed, and an effort will no doubt be
made to force the State treasurers to pay
for them. The bonds were stolen during
the administration of W. T. G. Bates, W..

There was a sad tragedy at Gaddy's
mill, a place about six miles east of
Hamer, in Marion county, Thursday
morning. Two brothers, about 10 and II
years of age, became involved in quar-
rel and the younger, securing a shotgun,
fred upon his brother at close range, the
load taking effect in his back, ranging
upward and coming out just above the
collar bone. The boy died two hours
later.
Abont $50 o'clock Saturday, as south
bound freight train was shifting near
Main street, at Bethune, the 12.year-old
son of Mr.. q. G. Myers, highly respected
farmer who lives a few miles west of
Bethune, was run over by the train and
instantly killed. From the testimony of
Policeman Horton, who was the only
witness sworn at the coroner's inquest, it
seems that the boy was running across the
railroad on Main street when the engine
bumped into the cars which were stand
ing on the crossing, knocking him down,
with the result above stated. The sad
accident cast a gloom over the entire
community.

INDIAN TERRITORY
TOWNS ARE GROWING
VERE BUSY
ALL WANT TdE FAVOR
CenterS of Constitutional
Districts viii Decide.

Muskogee Okla, July 1i.-Eyery
town in Indian Territory that thinks
it has chance for county seat is get
ting buss to be made the center of
constitutional district in order to get
les delegate I'm the convention. The
fight for county seats is going to be
the disruptlng feature IN the constitu-
tioual convention and it will take
more time and more fighting to locate
county boundary lines than on all
other subjects written in the constitu-
tion. There sre a good many men
who would like TO see the county line
question eliminated from the work Of
the constitution. but the enabling act
does not permit any other course.
The districting commission has de.
cided that each district should con.
tain about $4,000 people. Tha3s
about the average population of the
counties in Kansas. This has set the
people to wondering il it is possible
that constitutional districts might be-
come counties. There are at present
twenty-nine recording districts ana
one Of these is eighty miles long.
Tbs thirteenth recording district
includes the Seminole nation and
good big slice off Of the west side Of
the Creek nation. There are two
towns in this district. wewoAa and
Holdenyille, and each wants to be a
county seat Each town has taken
census of the district. Wewoka wants
a constitutional district to include the
Seminole nation alone. This would
leave Holdenyile out. Wewoka
claims thar the Seminole nation has
has over 1880 people and is large
enough to he entitled to a separate
district Boldenville claims to have
a census which shows only 1880 peo-
pie in the entire recording district and
insists that this is too near the $4,000
mark to cut up a recording district.
Similar town fights are in embryo
all over the territory. Census takers
are busy in number of places where
it is not being made public and as
coon as a town gets its figures salts
factorily adjusted a delegation Is sent
in 70 see the districting commission.
1t is really likely that the twenty
nine towns which are now places Of
record practically county seats)swin
make a fight to have the present re-
cordng districts made into counties
as they stand, but every town in the
territory which is not a place of record
win fight this. Unless county seat
fights develop in Oklahoma the dele
gates lrom that side may stand with
the recording towns and win out.
