Dispensary Board Meets.

The county dispensary board held
a regular monthly meeting at their
Office in this city last Monday. This
meeting was held by the old board,
and while the new members OF the
board, Messrs. H. G. Copeland and j.
q. Brooker, were present, they had
not qualified and consequently
could not act. However, the old
board went ahead and held the cleo
tions and attended to the other mat
ters before them, all this being done
with the consent of the new mem
bers of the board. All the officials
we're reelected, as follows:
Joseph Mccormack dispenser at
Bamberg, salary $500 month.
J. A. Price dispenser at Denmark,
salary $500 a month.
G.. J. Bessinger dispenser at Olar,
salary $4,000 a month.
S. w. Copeland dispenser at Ehr-
hardt, salary $4,000 month.
B. w. Miley attorney for the
board, salary $4,000 a year.
E. L. Price book-keeper for county
board, salary $4,000 month.
c. L. Kinard bother for county
dispensaries, salary $500 a month
The board also purchased supplies
for the ensuing quarter.

Are You Going?

Are you going to the Sunday
school convention in Bamberg?' That
is the question that is being asked
all around the county. The dates
are April 9th and 2Sth, and the
days are Tuesday and wednesday.
During the past week several super
intendents have responded to the
call for names, and now there is
list showing eleven Sunday-school
superintendents. Is your name
there? Is the school you represent
going to be without representation
here when Mr.. Way, the general sec
retary, calls the list of schools! Is
YOUR school going to be out OF the
nicture when Mr.. Whilden, the well
known leader of Sunday-school sing
ing, leads off in the first and the last
meeting? If you mean to be mere,
don't hesitate, don't delay, don't let
a day 20 by, write just as soon as
YOU read this, and then tell some
body else and induce them to come.
PROGRAMS have been sent out to a
number of schools, and there are
plenty of programs yet, and we wish
to send some to each school.
It is urged that every school IN the
county, regardless of denomination
or distance or anything else, send
in the names of their delegates at
once.
Remember the dates. Bear them
about with you. Bring them here
with you when they arrive at your
house on that Tuesday morning.
Bamberg wants to see you here. Mr..
WAY wants you to be here. Mr..
Whilden wants to make you sing.
So when you have considered all the
objections to coming, why decide to
come anyhow, and not only oecloe'
but come.

Death of Mr.. r. T. Delk.

Mr.. R. T. Delk, Of Orangeburg
county, died at his home last Sat
urday at twelve o'clock. His death
was sudden and unexpected. Mr.
Delk was seventy-seven years old,
and leaves his second wife and five
children, all of these being of his
first marriage. He was the father
of Mr.. D. J. Delk, Of this city. The
burial took place Sunday afternoon
at four o'clock at Clients Branch
Baptist church, near Denmark, the
services being conducted by Rev. L.
G. Herbert, pastor Of Trinity Metho-
dist church in this city.
Mr.. Delk had lived life OF useful
ness. and had reached a ripe old age,
and while his death causes grief and
sorrow, it is comforting to know
that he did not suffer in his last mo.
ments, but the end came quietly and
peacefully.

reputation has been secured for an

management has succeeded in get
ting Mr.. B:n:,; am for an engage
men, on Eric. Ai.rI 16.
1t is nee. 10 introduce Mr.
Bingham to So. uerg because he is a
man Of NOR than national reputa-
ton and when here about seven
years ago. he fairly swept the town
with his marvellous entertainment.
1t is interesting to notice, now
ever, Mr.. Binghams record. Born
at Richmond, Va, 1870. First ap-
pearance in public 1875. From
1876 to 1896 famous as the boy
Orator of America Thirty con-
secutive years before the public.
Eight thousand appearances on the
American continent. Two thousand

and Keystone States. One hundred
and sixty entertainments in the
Quaker City; So times in the Metro
polls of the Western Hemisphere,
New York city. Seven hundred
thousand miles travelled since six
years of age. Five hundred towns
in Uncle Sans domain have given
him, each, five, some of them six,
seven and eight audiences, in re-
peated recognition, confirmation
and commentator of his unequaled
artistic and natural accomplish
ments, skillful platform methods
and his inimitable public demon
strations of wit, wisdom, humor,
poetry, sentiment, tragedy, music,
melody, drollery and mirth.
Gov. Jas. K. Vardaman, Of Mis-
sissippi says of him: HE Is beyond
a doubt the greatest impersonator on
the American PLATFORM
Senator Bob Taylor, of Tennes-

gerate when I say I believe Ralph
Bingham is the greatest story teller
in the world"
The pleasure of having such a
man as this visit our town is one the
people of Bamberg cannot hope to
enjoy again in the near future. Let's
give him the biggest audience ever
known to attend a lyceum attrac-
ton. i
It is highly probable that admir-
ers of Mr.. Bingham from Denmark
and Branchville will be here to hear
him. Secure your tickets early and
get the best seats. They will be on
sale at the Peoples Drug Co., on and
after April 8.
General admission so cents; re-

NEWS AND NOTICES.
The B. Y. P. U. on Tuesday even
ing of last week, elected Miss Annie
Hartzog and Miss Erma Black mes
sengers to the State B. Y. P. u, to
be held at Florence this week.
The special music at the morning
and evening services as usual was
very good. The pastor preached on
the subject announced last week,
showing that the Baptist position on
the communion question was the
only consistent way of observing it
from a Baptist standpoint, and that
the popular objections to it grew out
of a misunderstanding of it. At the
close, the ordinance was solemnly
and impressively observed.
At the evening service the pastor
preached from l John 2:15-17. He
said that while this epistle was writ
ten that believers might know that
they had eternal life, it also showed,
as in the text, how we may know
when we haven't got it. We know
that we love God if we are seeking
to please and obey him. See l John
5:3, and John 1921. And If we are
seeking to please ourselves in SEN
sual worldly indulgences, we may
know that we. do not love God, and
are therefore unsaved.
On Tuesday night of this week
the pastor gave chalk talk to the
B. Y. P. U. on the consistency be-
tween Baptist principles and Baptist
attitudes and practices.
There was a very good attendance
at Sunday-school, but as the litera.
ture had failed to come, we couldn' t
do much. We had no Bibles. we
can habituate ourselves to walking
on crutches till we get 80 we don't
know how to walk without them.
This isn't speaking against crutches
as helps, but against depending on
them too much.
The Sunbeam Band entertainment
was quite a success, and the children
seemed to have good time.
Next week will be the last meet
ing of the w. M. U. before the BOOKS
of the mission boards close for the
year. The members
will bear in mind, and do all they
can for foreign missions by that
time.
Next Sunday the minds of the peo.-
pie generally will be turned toward
the great truth Of the resurrection
of Christ. Let us also rememDer
that the resurrection message to MS
disciples was and is still, GAS my
Father hath sent me, even so' seno
you o,..oa

McRae, Ca, April GA score of
detectives, two deputy United States
marshals and dozens Of friends OF
Pope S. Hill, the Macon attorney,
who was murdered here Sunday,
have been unable to get a clue to
his assassins. The belief that he
was murdered was greatly strength
ened to-day when a fracture OF the

is thought that the blow which
caused the fracture was dealt with a
heavy oaken bar, which was used to
fasten the rear door of the Office in
which he was found dead.

Now Lesson From old Story.

With the old, old story of Esau
selling his birthright to Jacob for
q mess Of pottage as his basis and
The Story of a Bad Bargain" as
his theme Rev. Booth delivered a
very excellent and forrceful SER
mon last Sunday evening to an at
tentlve congregation. After listen
ing to good many sermons from
this same story one would natur-
ally think that in time it would
grow old in reality and nothing at
all could be said but what has al
ready been said by some one, some
place some time before, but the
lesson Rev. Booth found pictured
there and delivered to his auditors
