Civic Association.

1t is the aim and purpose of the
band of women who are endeavoring
to make Bamberg a more beautiful
and more healthful town to also
make it more attractive in every
way They want it to become a
place which strangers, will love to
enter AMI from which they will be
loath to depart. With this purpose
in view, they have secured a nice
room down town which they propose
furnishing and using as Rest
Room for the ladies from the sur
rounding country when within our
gates.
A shopping expedition is at best a
tiresome one, and when it is begun
weary and dusty from long drive,
with no quiet spot in all the town
where one can refresh herself, can
we wonder that the ladies dread a
days shopping in Bamberg? .,
We believe that this room will fill
a long-felt want, and it seems Pc
culiarly appropriate that it has been
made possible by country girls. The
amount realized by the Civic League
from the play by the Kearse ANA
teur Club will be used for the rent
of the room during the first year. 1t
only remains to be furnished, and
this we feel sure the merchants will
deem a privilege to assist the ladies
in doing. The members of the AS
sociation, disliking to solicit where
aid should be offered, ask that the
gentlemen offer their contributions
unsolicited. Therefore they request
that each merchant or business man
who desires to cooperate with the
ladies in the attempt to make their
lady customers more comfortable
while in our town to at once phone
Mrs. c. r. Brabham, Sr., who is
chairman of the committee, their ap-
proval and stating, if possible, what
they wish to contribute-whether
money or some article which can be
used in the room. Do not postpone
this, as a full report from the COM
mittee on this subject is desired at
the next meeting which will be held
as usual at the Fitting School chapel
next Thursday afternoon at five
o'clock. Let every member be pres
ent.
The names of the contributors to
this room as we'll as the articles con-
tributed will be given in next weeks
issue of this paper. Undoubtedly
the progress of this undertaking will
be watched with interest by the lady
shoppers.

Death of Mr.. G.. II. HuttO.

Mr.. Chas. Henry Hutto died in this
city last Thursday night or rather
Friday morning about three o'clock,
at the home of his brother, Mr.. w.
G. Hutto. He had been spending a
few days in town with the family of
his brother, and on going home
Thursday night it was noticed that
he was not we'll, and physician was
summoned, who stayed with him un-
til about midnight Mr.. Hutto was
then asleep, and seemed to be getting
on all right. About three o'clock he
awoke and asked for water, which
was given him, and on lying back
down in the bed he soon expired
without a struggle. He had suffered
for years with heart trouble, and
this caused his death.
The burial took place Friday aft
ernoon at Salem church, near Govan,
the services being largely attended
by the friends and relatives of the
family. He was buried with Masonic
honors, this service being in charge
of Denmark lodge. of which Mr..
Hutto was a member. DR.. j. B.
Black, of this city, at the request Of
Mr.. Holman, master of the Denmark
lodge, acted as worshipful master.
There was a large attendance of Ma
sons, they being present from Olar,
Denmark, and Bamberg lodges. Rev.
T. E. Morris, pastor of the Denmark
Methodist church, conducted the re-
ligious exercises.
Mr.. Hutto was forty-two years old,
and was born in this county. He
had been a widower for several
years, and he leaves two children.
He had been a travelling salesman
for the past few years, and his gen.
erous nature and jovial disposition
won for him a number of friends, to
whom the news of his death came as
a great shock.

We are publishing in this issue
an advertisement which gives us
much pleasure. 1t is from Mr.. J. T..
Griffith, who has for sale about ten
tons of pea vine hay. This hay was
raised by Mr.. Griffith at his farm
near Denmark, and he put it up in
bales ready for sale. He did not
plant any cotton last year, and he
is better off. than many who did.
There ought to be more farmers in
this county who would do like Mr..
Griffith.
The work of improvement goes on.
Col. T. J. Counts has just finished
the work of putting in handsome
show windows and a plate glass front
in his store occupied by Mrs. A. Nc
B. Speaks & Co. as millinery store,
as well as a cement sidewalk in
front, and now he is having a
cement sidewalk put down in front
of all his adjoining stores. This
makes a solid cement sidewalk from
the railroad to near the postofice,
and is great improvement for that
side of the street.

NEWS AND NOTICES.
Rev. Arch C. Cree's stereopticon

and his missionary address after
wards was inspiring. The immedi-
ate results of this visit will be the
undertaking to support native
worker on the foreign field by the

The w. NJ. U. at their meeting
last Wednesday, not only did the

Moore, representing our State, Sun
day-school work, and Rev. j. T.
Watts, representing our State B. Y.
P: U. work, were with us Sunday and
gave us some helpful addresses on
these lines of our work. Bro. Watts
address on Christian service Sunday
morning was especially impressive.
He told of his conversion in a
Young Mems Christian Association.
Having been raised up in the Catho-
lie church, he was forbidden to at
tend any Protestant service, but he
and his twin brother were attracted
into the above service by hearing
song: LET the lower lights be burn
ing" He said the difference between
the Catholic religion and evangelical
was that in the former you
learned about Christ in story and in
art, and in the latter one came to
know Christ experimentally.
Bro. Moore gave us some good
thoughts on teacher training at
night.
We will have an old-fashioned
talk next Thursday
night from one of the greatest Bible
scholars of England.
Don't forget that next Sunday is
regular conference day. Some mat
ters of Importance need attention.

ANOTHER ARREST.
Chester Kennedy Charged With Be-
ing Accessory.

Barnwell, March 21.-New devel-
opments have shown up in the Ussery
murder case. The first is that Ches-
ter Kennedy was to-day arrested at
the home of his father, Burgess Ken
nedy, near Williston, and lodged in
Jail here tonight, charged with be-
ing an accessory before and after the
fact in the murder of Perry Ussery.
The second one is the confession
made to-day by Quitman Johnson in
reference to the killing. Yesterday
Johnson was convicted for the muir
der of Mr.. Ussery. To-day in conver-
sation with Sheriff Creech Johnson
stated that, as he had been convicted
and had to die, he wanted to tell the
truth in regard to Ussery's death.
He admitted that both he and Grubbs
had been hired to do the killing and
said that they were to receive 5000
for the job. Kennedy was to pay
S10O and 1.-The lady in Augusta" was
to pay $100. He admitted having
fired the fatal shot. He stated that
Grubbs got the gun from under a
water trough and concealed it in the
place where the shooting was done
(behind a screen near public lava
tory. He declared Grubbs carried
him to where the gun was after hav-
ing pointed Holland out to him. He
stated that twice before he fired he
raised the gun to shoot but his cour-
age failed him. On the third trial,
however, he fired and made his tenn
porary escape, as shown by the State
during the trial. He states that on
Monday night after the killing he
went with Grubbs to Chester Ken
nedy and he told them that they had
got the wrong man and asked them
to go and put Holland out of the
way, as he was sure to kill him now.
Johnson says Kennedy gave him $40
that night and was to send him the
balance by Grubbs as soon as things
got little more quiet.
The confession and Kennedy's ar
rest have caused an even greater in
terest in the case and each develop
ment is being watched with much in
terest.
