G. A. Ducker, Bamberg, S. G.. Read
the following testimonial:
Branchville, S. c., Aug. II, 1909.
Charleston Drug Manufacturing Co.,
Charleston, S. C.
Dear Sirs:
For a number of years l have been
a great sufferer of rheumatism and
backache. About two months ago l
heard of YARNS Rheumatic Remedy
being fine, and a sure cure for rheu-
matism and backache, and went to
the Wimberly Drug Co. at once and
got a bottle. l have taken two bot
ties, and am proud to say that am
just as clear of rheumatism and back
ache as l ever was. I am 62 years
old, and l consider this medicine
wonderful to cure a man at my age.
You, nor any one else, can recon-
mend it too highly.
1 consider it great blessing to
humanity that this remedy has been
discovered. I gained six pounds
while l was taking two bottles.
Yours respectfully,
A. H. BRUCE.

Waterworks Inspected.

Mr.. W. w. Lyon, of Jacksonville,
Fla. engineer of the waterworks sys-
tenn here, was in the city last Friday
to inspect the work already done.
Pressure was put on the mains by
the pumps at the power house, and
the mains were tested up to $50
pounds pressure. Mr.. Lyon express
ed himself as we'll pleased with the
lob and said the pipe laying was an
honest piece of work. He was also
pleased with the work of the ire
pumps at the station. Work has be-
gun on the reservoir, and in a short
time a we'll will be put down to fur
nish water for the system. How
ever, property on Main street can be
protected now in case of fire, as
water can be obtained from the res
ervoir of the cotton mill. Water
from this source was used for testing
the mains. The commissioners of
public works have purchased one
thousand feet of hose, which is stored
at the power station, and it is now
up to city council to buy hand reels
for this hose, obtain hook and lad
der truck, and organize fire depart
ment. The big tank is expected here
next month, but water will be avail
able at the town plant as soon as the
reservoir is completed and the well
bored. This work will be finished in
about three weeks.

Rhett Takes Steps to Enforce Law.

Charleston, September 14.-Mayor
Rhett, who since his return from his
holiday has been studying better
methods for enforcing the liquor
laws in Charleston, to-day had bill
introduced into city council to stiffen
the ordinances for preventing the il
legal sale of liquor here, and also
gave out for publication two letters
which he has written to Solicitor
Peurifoy and to the foreman of the
grand jury of Charleston county, in
viting these gentlemen to cooperate
with him in better enforcement of
the liquor laws.
The ordinance to be passed next
month makes it unlawful for persons
or firms to lend their names to tigers
for the importation Of liquor through
the police lines, unlawful for citizens
to use the names of persons or firms
for this purpose, unlawful for firms
or persons to deliver contraband
liquor, and also works into the pres
ent city laws the fact that revenue
license is prima facie evidence of vio-
lation of the dispensary law.
To the solicitor and grand jury
foreman he has written that he urges
a serious effort on their part to en-
force the law, and calls attention to
a number of cases which have been
brought before the grand jury but
not tried. He suggests that the So
licitor get from him list of revenue
licenses held in Charleston which will
provide evidence for conviction. The
mayor believes that the juries have
not given him the right support, and
says so.

"Unloaded Gun" May Cost Sight.

Union, Sept. 14.-Another "un-
loaded gun" has nearly resulted in a
terrible tragedy, even though no ia
tality occurred, and may make little
boy blind for life.
1t was at Buffalo, in this county,
that Elmer and Luther McCreight,
aged 10 and years respectively, sons
of Mr.. Robt. McCreight, were playing
on the bed with shotgun that was
supposed to be unloaded, as their
father usually kept it that way, but
was loaded now because Mr.. Nc
Creight had loaded it to kill some
dogs that had been worrying him. In
playing with the gun it suddenly
went off, the charge tearing a large
hole in the ceiling of the room and
few of the scattering shot entering
Elmer's eyes. Just how badly his eye
sight will be affected cannot be told
by the physicians who were summon
ed promptly.

Girl Takes Life by Poison.

Pottsville, Pa, Sept. 14.-Scraping
roach poison out of crannies and
crevices of her cell until she had
collected half cupful, Jennie Kane,
16 years old, who was sentenced by
Judge Brumm to four years in the
county prison for theft, committed
suicide by moistening the poison with
water and swallowing the whole
quantity. She died in agony Is min
utes later, after having swallowed
the drug.
On Monday last the girl was SEN
fenced, after a consultation of the
judges, having pleaded guilty to the
larceny of money from the home Of
Thomas Beddall.
After robbing the Beddall residence
she escaped to Philadelphia, where
she was apprehended by Chief of Po-
lice Davies, who had communicated
with the police authorities of that
city. All day Sunday she was mo-
rose, and guards in the prison heard
her muttering as they passed her
cell.

Robbery Tuesday Morning.

Tuesday morning of this week,
about two o'clock, some one broke the
large plate glass show window in the
hardware store of J. A. Hunter with
brick and took therefrom two
double barrel shot shot guns, both of
them being high-priced. The store
was not entered and nothing else
from the window was taken. There
is no clue so far to the thief.
No doubt the reason the thief was
so bold was that the electric lights
were out that morning, on account of
the big belt at the power house hav-
ing to be taken up, so the plant was
shut down about one o'clock Tues
day morning and the belt shortened,
in order to give it time to dry so that
the service would be interrupted as
little as possible.
1t will be remembered that only a
few months ago the window at the
Simmons Hardware Company was
broken on two occasions and several
shot guns stolen. The robbers steal
guns only.

Now for a Fire Department.

The laying of pipes, the blocking
of streets, and the placing of hy-
drants, and all the other things nee
essar to a water works system, hav-
ing beer completed to the point
where they, can be utilized for fight
ing fire, the question now up to the
citizens of Bamberg is to have reg
ular organized volunteer fire depart
ment.
At a meeting of the city council
last week it was decided to issue a
call to the citizens Of the town for
Monday evening, September goth, to
form an organization which shall be
a permanent one. The meeting will
be held in the court house, as the
seats have not yet been placed in the
city hall. The hour has been set for
half past eight, and it is hoped that
a large crowd will be present. Some
other plans will probably come up be-
fore the meeting for discussion, such
as dividing the city into wards, the
erection of an alarm bell, and such
others as may be incident to such a
meeting.
The work done in the past years
by the men of the town in fighting
fire, when there was little to fight
with, is sure guarantee that the de-
partment when systematized will be
one of the best amateur teams in the
State. Heretofore only bucket bri-
gades have been available for the
most part, but now that full equip
ment of hose is on hand, with the
prospect of purchasing ladders and
reels in the near future, the condi-
tions which naturally existed where
there is no fire department, will be
changed, and there will be no reason
why a building in reach of the long
hose should be even badly damaged.
AS soon as the department is in
working order and has all it's equip
ments, Bamberg will doubtless have
it's insurance rates materially reduc-
ed.
Remember the call for next Mon
day evening in the court house at
$50 o'clock.

Mayor Protein.

Home Mission Meeting.

The September meeting of the
Woman's Home Mission Society WILL
be held next Tuesday afternoon at
four o'clock in the ladies' parlor OF
the Methodist church.
One member remarked, The
Home Mission Society has been sum-
mering it out of town." That is part
ly true, but mostly untrue, for IN
spite of the fact that the July and
August meetings were necessarily not
so large in attendance, yet the Work
has been maintained, We might say
with usual vigor, for the reason
that during these two months there
has come an unusual number OF calls
for the sick and needy.
Let us have a large number pres
ent at this meeting, and renew our
efforts to the great work that lies
before us. Our president cannot
meet the demand single-handed; she
must have the faithful support OF
each member of the auxiliary if she
is to attain the best results.

Negro Killed Near Clinton.

Clinton, Sept. 14.-A negro was
shot on the plantation of Mr.. George
NJ. Davis on Sunday afternoon and
died yesterday as result of the
wounds. 1t seems that the negro
who was shot, Elliott Mcdowell, had
misused the wife of the slayer, Will
Watson, and Watson attacked him as
he was preparing to climb tree to
get some mucadines on Sunday after
noon.
Coroner Hairston was notified as
soon as Mcdowell died and he en-
paneled a jury and held an inquest
yesterday afternoon, bringing out
the facts as given above.
Will Watson made no trouble but
gave himself up at once. He was
put in charge of Mr.. G. NJ. Davis,
who carried him to Laurens to jail
to-day.
