NEWS AND NOTICES.
The Sunbeams had a good meeting
last Friday evening as usual. A large
number were in attendance and an
interesting program was carried out.
The Philathea class contributed
five dollars as their part of the Sun
day-school collection Sunday. But
they always do liberal things. Next
Saturday is orphanage day over the
State, and Sunday will be the time
for collecting through the channel
of our Sunday-school the results OF
Saturdays labors. Let us make 1t a
red letter day in point of benevolent
contributions.
Pastor Frier preached at both

and at the close of the service Sun
day night, Misses Grace Hill and
Won Eta Rentz were baptized:
The church in conference Sunday
provided for representation in the
Barnwell Association, which con-
venes the latter part of next month.
We are behind some with our ap-
portionment as a church to missions
and general benevolence. Let us be-
stir ourselves to make clear re-
port to the Association. Especially
those who have been in the habit. OF

Next Sunday will be the regular
time for celebration of the Lord s
Supper.

ATTEMPT TO WRECK TRAIN.
Spikes Removed from Rails on Tres
tie of C.. and n. w. Near Gastonia.

Chester, Sept. 19.-News reached
here to-day Of a dastardly attempt
to wreck No. 10, the Charleston and
Northwestern Railways north-bound
passenger train, at the trestle across
Crowder's Creek, just over the
North Carolina line. Engineer R. D.
Smyer was at the throttle and Capt
w. w. Isaacs had charge of the train
and it was the keen outlook Of these
experienced trainmen that enabled
them to see the danger and slow
down in time to avert serious dam
age. The spikes had been drawn
out of several rails on the trestle and
the irons carefully laid back. For
tunately, by the trains speed being
reduced, the engine remained on the
rails and the train was held on the
track.
The train was heavily loaded with
passengers, and if a wreck had oc'
Cured as planned, and the train
been thrown down into the 50-foot
abyss, the loss of life would have
been frightful. Posses from York
vile and Gastonia are said to be
securing the country for the miscre-
ants.

Damage by Lightning.

The heavy thunder storm of last
Thursday afternoon did considerable
damage in Bamberg. The lightning
was especially vivid, and bolt
struck the telephone exchange, set
ting fire to the Office and doing lot
of damage to the switchboard. The
escape of the young Lady operators
was narrow, as they had just left the
switchboard when, the stroke came.
With the aid of fire extinguishers
the flames were soon under control,
but Mrs. Ruth Bamberg came near
sustaining painful burns while pull
ing down the asbestos curtain to pro-
tect the board. ~ .
Lightning also did considerable
damage to the electric light lines.
One transformer was burned up, and
the fuses on several transformers
were blown, causing some patrons to
be without lights Thursday night.
At the house of DR.. F. B. McCrack1n
the switch cabinet was torn out, a
hearth torn up, and other damage
done, the electricity coming in on
his light wires. Fortunately no one
at his home was hurt.

TILLMAN HANDS OFF.
"Won't Help a Damn Soul in Race
for Governor.

"I will be a candidate for re-elec-
tion to the United States Senate If l
am alive and not in articulo mortls.
Yes. by God, I believe If I am dead
I'll let 'em vote for me a little any
how"
In this emphatic language Senator
Tillman is quoted by correspondent
of The Augusta Chronicle as dispos-
ing of rumors to the effect that he
would not be a candidate for re-
election.
At his farm near Trenton Senator
Tillman talked the matter over
with representative Of The Chron-
icle, and in language more or less
Tillmanesque, as the various phases
demanded, stated that he believed
he would be elected again without
trouble.
"It has been said often, that l
could sit on my porch and be re-
elected" said he. II don't know
why they always mention my back
porch for the front porch is mucn
more cheerful and use 1t the more,
but I suppose they mean to imply
that I need not even show myself in
the campaign and that my friends in
South Carolina will see that l go
back, if I want to-
Senator Tillman was busy on his
farm. but he took time to say this
much. 49,, -,
To those who are familiar with the
oft repeated statements as to MS
failing health it may come as sur
prise to know that he sleeps well,
eats heartily, gives the whole farm
his personal supervision by walking
and riding over it every day, in fact
many times a day, dictates his prl-
vate and official letters to his secre-
tary. and that his mind is as clear as
a bell, and his old time fire of speech
and manner blazes out at opportune
times. The only real reminder OF his
past afliction is the cane he carries
and he sometimes forgets that and
gets along seemingly as well as with
it.
Barring death, he will be in the
race, and he will make speeches too'
and he says he doesn't care who or
how many enter the field. Any one
has a right to offer who wishes to:
Senator it has been more than
hinted by some that you are encour-
aging, and will back Gov. Blease for
reelection as Governor, next sum-
mer. The Chronicle wants to know
directly from you, if you will give it,
how much truth there is in these
hints and rumors?" was the direct
question asked Senator Tillman by
the representative of The Chronicle.
81 am not going to help damn
soul in that race. 1 am going to De
strictly hands-off and neutral, and
furthermore I have not given anyone
any authority to say that I was for
or against either of the candidates
who have announced. I am not 60
ing to mix in it or have anything to
do with it,
