CADMIUM PRODUCED
IN UNITED STATES

Washington, Dec. 29.-There Is a
new American industry. 1t is the pro-
duction OF metal which possesses re-
nlarkable properties. Until recently
cadmium used in this country was i'm
ported from Silesia. but now we are
producing so much Of 1t at home that
we import very. little of II.
Cadmium melts at lower tempera-
ture. and. like bisinuth lowers the
melting point of alloys in which 1t Is
used. Bismuth, however, forms brittle
alloys. but many alloys OF cadmium
are ductile and malleable, yet hard.
The melting points of these alloys are
lower than the melting points OF any
of the metals composing them. Sew
eral of them liquify at temperature
considerably below that OF boiling

great astonishment of the tea drinker.
The chifc source of cadmium is zinc
ore. though small quantities of this
comparatively rare metal are contained
in some lead ores.

Trenholm Shoots Himself

Charleston, April 20.-George M.
Trenholm, son of the late George NJ.
Trenholm, shot himself last night
while handling pistol at his board
ing place at Mrs. O'Neill's residence,
on Legare street.
The report of the pistol startled
the household and upon investiga-
ton Mr.. Trenholm was found to be
lying on the floor of his room in a
pool of blood. He was Immediately
removed to the Riverside infirmary,
where his wound in the right breast,
near his shoulder, was found to be
quite serious, but not necessarily IA
tai.
At the infrmary this afternoon it
was stated that Mr.. Trenholm's con-
dition was still quite serious, but the
young man appears to be holding his
own, and may recover from the
wound.
The particulars of the shooting
could not be definitely established to-
day. The shooting is generally re-
gretted by the numerous friends and
acquaintances of the young man. He
is well connected, of much ability
and although it is said that his
health has not been of the best, he
has every promise of attaining sue
cessful career. Mr.. Trenholm has a
fancy for the sea and only recently
he returned to Charleston after a
long voyage.

A LITTLE DRAGGING.

Our paper is little late this week,
but it could not be helped. There
is limit to the endurance of the
editor and his faithful force, and if
our readers knew the amount of
work turned out of our Office during
the past week they would wonder
how we got out any paper at all. Our
job work for last week amounted to
more than double what it used to in
an entire month. We are glad to
say to our friends and well-wishers
that our business is growing all the
time, and if our out-of-town patron
age keeps on as it has been for the
past few months, we can max a
living Independent of any business
from the town of Bamberg. Work
received from elsewhere brings more
money into the town and enables US
to employ larger force who spend
their money with Bamberg mer-
chants. Every business in town
should endeavor to extend its teri
tory for trade.

Civic Association.

The successful and prosperous city
of the future is not so much the city
which can afford citizens Of wealth
and prosperity, but that which can
boast Of men deeply interested in the
best conditions of health, cleanliness
and safety. We are all desirous OF
seeing Bamberg prosperous and
growing. Let us therefore make 1t
clean and thereby healthy. In most
cities and towns day is set apart by
the mayor Just at this time of the
year for a general street cleaning.
Why not in Bamberg? A concerted
movement in any enterprise is always
the most successful movement. One
can scarcely be enthusiastic over put
ting his own premises in perfect
state of sanitation when he sees his
neighbor over the way sitting con-
tent with his back yard filled with
decaying vegetable matter and pools
of filthy water, or possibly his back
lot knee-deep in Maud and slime all
breeders of disease. Every day that
we put off this campaign against dis
ease and pestilence adds to the dan
ger of the towns safety.
It has been demonstrated that the
mosquito and house fly are largely
responsible for disease in the human
family. AS they thrive only where
there are filthy barnyards or stables
and standing water, let us keep every
place scrupulously clean during the
summer months, allowing no cess
pools or stagnant water near our
premises. Then, as sickness can be
brought by flies from a neighbor's,
let us have our houses and food 80

We do not know very much about
affairs at Clemson college, but after
reading the statements of Capt.
Minus and President Nell, as well as
the statement of one member of the
board Of trustees, coupled with the
fact that other members Of the board
decline to talk, it rather looks like
Clemson needs a new president or a
new board of trustees or possibly
both. Something is radically wrong
at Clemson and has been for years,
and if the board of trustees cannot
manage the institution properly, they
should resign and give place to 9TH
ers. There has been more trouble at
Clemson in the last few years than at
all the other colleges in the State
put together, and surely, the students
cannot be blamed for it all. Boys
will be boys, and unless they are
controlled wisely and yet firmly,
trouble and insubordlnation will re-
suit.

Claflin Concert Company.

The concert given at the colored
Methodist church in this city Mon
day evening OF this week was large
ly attended by the white people OF
the city, and they seemed to enjoy
the songs and recitations of the ne
groes. On the whole it was a very
good entertainment, but the negroes
composing the company would do
much better work if they would at
tempt only such songs as suit their
voices and would vary their program
more. They had too many songs
which were very much alike. The
behavior of the negroes present was
remarkable, in fact you could not
find a better behaved audience any,
where, and at the close of the pro-
gram they kept their seats until all
the white people were. out of the
building. There was large crowd
present, and the entertainment was a
financial success, which was due to
the efforts of j.. A. Nimmons, the
barber, and Rev. D. J. Sanders, pas
tor of the church.

Floyd Not Confirmed.

opposition from Spartanburg citizens
and business men has practically
ceased, the senate to-day again failed
to confirm w. M. Floyd as postmast-

had asked that the confirmation be
held up and had not notified the

session being called before Senator
Smith had withdrawn his opposition,
the committee would not act on it.
A petition signed by numerous
prominent citizens of Spartanburg

Smith to-day, but it was accompanied
by the statement that it was sent
only as an evidence of good faith and
was not intended now to be present.
