Law and Order League Organized.

In view of the prohibition period
now in force and of the approaching
election on the dispensary question,
largely attended meeting of the
leading citizens of Bamberg was held
in the court house Monday after
noon of this week for the purpose
of organizing law and order league
for the purpose of enforcing the pro-
hibition law. DR.. Geo. F. Hair was
made temporary chairman of the
meeting, and the following were
elected as permanent officers:
J. F. Carter, president; J. A. Hunt
er, vice-president; R. c. Jones, secre-
tary.
A committee on constitution and
bylaws was elected as follows: Geo.
F. Hair, J. F. Carter, and H. NJ.
Graham. The committee on mem
bership consists of J. T. O'Neal, Jno.
F. Folk, and Geo. F. Hair.
Quite a large membership was en-
rolled, and the meeting was most
enthusiastic one. Our people are de-
termined that no liquor shall be sold
illegally in Bamberg, and it is the
intention of the organization to make
the membership as large as possible.
Immediately after the prohibition
meeting here to-day (Thursday) an
effort will be made to organize
leagues throughout the county, and
also to organize county league. The
move is good one, and we are glad
to see that our people are waking up
on this question.

ORDERS HIS OWN EXECUTION.
Wounded Officer Slain by Subordi-
nate to Escape Torture from Moors.

Madrid, July 30.-The death of
Lieut.. Col. Hanezmarin on July %,
in an engagement around Melilla,
was most dramatic. The Spanish
regiment was decimated. Hanez-
marin was wounded, and he ordered
a sergeant to finish him, in order to
prevent his falling into the hands of
the Moors to be tortured. The SER
geant obeyed the order. He closed
his eyes and sent a bullet into his
colonel's heart.
Estimates of the Spanish losses
have been raised to 400 killed and
wounded. The mountain passes are
filled with the bodies of Moors, over
which the jackals and birds of prey
fight. According to advices received
here, the tribesmen are armed with
rifles of the latest pattern, and have
plenty of ammunition, indicating
that a huge contraband trade has
been going on.

Byrnes Making Good.

A citizen of Aiken has received the
following letter from a prominent
business man in Barnwell, which
shows how Solicitor Byrnes is re-
garded in that county. Among other
things he says,
"You have no doubt been observ-
ing with some small degree of envy
that Barnwell county is doing things
in the way of convicting white men.
Murder with recommendation to
mercy is better than what we usually
get, but it is hard to understand the
justification for the recommendation.
Byrnes still continues to cover him
self with glory, and his argument in
the first Kennedy trial was by far
the best speech I ever heard in the
court house, and I've heard all worth
while for the past fifteen years. -

Case Compromised.

named Wilkerson and w. B. Rey-
nolds went over to Orangeburg last
Saturday to witness a game of base
ball between the teams Of the mill
here and at Orangeburg. They hired
a horse and buggy from the livery
stable of J. R. Kinard & Co., and

tion that he died late that afternoon,
and it was charged that his death
was due to hard driving. A warrant
was sworn out for the young men,
and they were taken in charge Mon
day morning, but the case was COM
promised by their paying SIS for the

Tybee Hotel Burns.

Savannah, Ca, July 31.-Hotel
Tybee, at Tybee Island, was burned
shortly before daylight this morn
ing, a hundred guests fleeing from
the building in, their night clothes.
So far as is known no lives were lost
and no one was injured.
The flames made a clean sweep
from Tybee depot to the seas edge
through the big hotel, bath houses,
pavillions, etc.
The loss Is practically complete,
and it is thought that $4,000 will
cover it.
Many of the guests after the first
fright returned to their rooms only
to escape again from beneath falling
walls with a few Of their most valued
belongings.
