NEWS AND NOTICES.
There was a very good attendance
at all the services Sunday. Pastor
Frier made an address on the three
hundredth anniversary of our English
Bible at the morning service, using
a blackboard illustration of the gen.
eral purpose and influence of the
word Of God. He read an interesting
statement from the American Bible
Society, saying that over 100000
copies of the bible were scattered in
China last year, of their own publica-
ton. His subject in the evening was,
1.-THE Messiah and His mission to
men," using Christ's first recorded
text.
Our home and foreign mission
campaign came to a close Sunday;
and the final amounts from the diff
ferent auxiliaries of the church and
general collections were forwarded
Monday. We are glad to say that
our full apportionments for these
two principal objects of our work
were fully met.
C. B. Free and G.. H. Smoak were
elected messengers to the fifth Sun
day r Getting next Sunday at Georges
Creek
There will be no preaching service
at our church next Sunday, as Pastor
Frier will fill the pulpit of the first
Baptist church in Rock Hill, S. c.,
on that day.
The theme for devotional study
Thursday evening will be, what the
Bible is to us as reflected in the
10th psalm. Special selections from
this great chapter are called for, as
they find echo in ones heart and life.
The Sunbeams had splendid pro-
gram last Friday afternoon, the sub
ject, being, Brazil as one of our mis-
sionary fields. Splendid papers
were written and read by Eunice
Hunter, Gladys Free, and Lucille
Hunter.

The Census Figures.
(Prepared for The Herald.)


The census figures for 1910 relat-
ing to all the towns of the State have
appeared. Some interesting develop
ments may be noted in the report,
but the most noticeable and notable
ia possibly that of the increase OF the
towns and cities to such large de-
gree and the. small increase OF the
rural districts. To illustrate this
take the matter of Bamberg county.
In the entire county there has been
an actual increase cf 1,24S people;
of this number Bamberg town alone
furnishes 4O4 or 1878 per cent; Bam-
berg and Denmark together furnish
about 60 per cent; while the four
towns of Bamberg, Denmark, Olar,
and Ehrhardt furnish 80 per cent.
The district which now composes
Bamberg county, had, in 1890, 12,-
1877 people, in 1910, 20 years later
we have 1884, which Is a net gain
of 6,357 or about so per cent. The
town of Bamberg has gained in that
same length of time (since 189O
1,241 people or all told over 17S per
cent. The increase from 1900 to
1910 was not near so large as for the
former decade.
Bamberg's population 1910 against
1900 is 1887 to 1888, an actual
gain of 404 people or 25.7 per cent.
Out of 155 incorporated towns and
cities in South Carolina, Bamberg
holds thirty-second place; it ranks
nineteenth of towns less than 5000;
it ranks tenth of towns less than 81
900; it ranks third of towns less than
1000; there are in the entire State
80 towns with over 1000 inhabitants
which are smaller than Bamberg.
The country districts have gained
2s3 people, the towns have gained
965. Only one township shows de-
crease, this being Midway, this town
ship falling from 1854 in 1900 to
2,155 in 1910, a loss of 1876 per
cent. or an actual loss of 399 inhab-
itants. This is what brings the in
crease of the entire county to such
low rate, the rate of increase of
the entire county being 7.2 per cent.
Two towns show loss of population,
these being Midway and Govan, but
these towns together only show a loss
of A people, so the decrease has
been in the rural districts. The aver
| age for all the towns is 33 per cent.
increase. Olar shows the best per
cent. in gains; Denmark is second.
In actual numbers of course Bamberg
! is ahead.
The following table will show just
how the population stands in Bam-
berg county:

Caesars Head Overturned.

Asheville, N. c., April 24.-Belat-

that Caesars Head, a famous peak
of the Blue Ridge, about ~ miles
from Brevard, had been oVerturneo
by the earthquake shock which ID
said to have been felt in various

But Little Damage.

Asheville, N. c., April 25.-A tel
ephone message from Brevard to-
night stated that the decapitation of
Caesars Head by an earthquake was
not as serious as first reported. It
is now said that while several large
pieces of rock had fallen, the head of
"Old Caesar" had lost none of it's
natural beauty.

GLASS COMPANY APPEALS.
Wants the $4,000 Obtained from
Them by Former Commission.

Columbia, April 21.-The move
was made before the new dispensary
commission to-day by the Carolina
Glass company, Of this city, to have
returned nearly $4,000, seized by
the old dispensary commission out
of funds owed the company by the
several dispensaries, and also to
have a rehearing upon the whole
Carolina Glass company case, involv-
ing a judgment against the COM.
pany of over $51, 900 by the old dis.
pensary commission. The samount
sought to be recovered was taken
over by the former commission, Of
which DR.. William J. Murray was
chairman, on this whole judgment,
from the money owed the Glass conn
pany by county dispensaries for
goods furnished.
The amount the commission claim
ed was owed the State was the DIFF
ference between the whole judgment,
$1,000, and the amount owed the
Glass company for goods furnished
in State dispensary days, $4,000 In
round numbers. Thus the alleged
over-judgment was about $4,000.
Upon this nearly $4,000 was ap-
piled, although counsel to-day con-:
tended the supreme court had ruled
the commission had no authority to
inquire into other things than that
which the State was indebted for,
or the claims against the State.
Thus, by this contention, the $2S,-.
900 could not be collected from the
Glass company.
Stevenson Letter Again.
Among matters brought into dis
cussion again are the Stevenson LETT
ter, in which the Glass company
claimed it was assured the funds in
the county dispensaries, for sales
after a certain date, would not be
touched; and the decision of the SUI
preme court, by which the conten-
ton is that the commission could not
collect any over-judgment against
the company; and the large amount
paid Attorney Fielder on the over
judgments. These matters appear
more fully in the formal papers filed.
Attorney W. H. Lyles, represent
ing the Glass company, stated that
this firm owed the State Of South
Carolina nothing, and that it was uIl-
lust to have this money taken over
from the county dispensaries and
half of it 20 to Attorney Fielder.
Mr.. Lyles understood from Mr..
Felder's published letter that this
was counsels expectation. Argu-
ments were completed to-day In the
case. The Carolina Glass company
was represented by Lyles & Lyies,,
J. T. seibles and D. w. Robinson, or
this city. Attorney General Lyon was
called before the commission. He
outlined the history Of the Glass
company case, telling OF the previous
course through the courts and other
things about the case that are mat
ters of record.
The question has been suggested
! whether or not an act OF the legls-
lature will be necessary to get the
fund from the State treasurer at tnls
stage, should the Glass company be
successful in it's case.

CARLISLE FITTING SCHOOL.
Many Improvements Being Made
Faculty Enlarged.

Things are taking on new life at
the. Carlisle Fitting School these
days. The buildings and grounds
are being quite extensively repaired
and improved. The authorities are
beginning the work of having the en-
tire plant put in first-class shape be-
fore the beginning of the next ses-
sion. Before the battle is over
it is intended that our school here
shall be as we'll equipped as the
highest efficiency of service de-
mands. We want a school here that
not only Bamberg but that the entire
State might we'll be proud of. 1t
won't be so hard or take so long If
we will all stick together and work
together.
Faculty Enlarged.
1t will doubtless be gratifying
news to the friends of the institution
that the teaching force is to be en-
larged another year. Next year four
men of college and university train
ing will be employed in the depart
ment of instruction. This will make
possible very much more satisfac-
tory service.
The faculty will consist of those
who are now members and in addi-
ton MIR. Horace B. Anderson, OF
Spartanburg. Mr.. Anderson is an A.
B. graduate of Wofford and comes
to us most highly endorsed by those
who know him. They all say he is

Recognized by Southern Board OF
Education.
Head Master Guilds has received
the following letter from DR.. Stone
wall Anderson, secretary of the Board
of Education of the Methodist Epis-
copal Church, South:
Pres. J. Caldwell Guilds, Carlisle
Fitting School, Bamberg, S. c.
Dear Sir: take this method of in,
forming you officially that the Board
of Education through it's Classiffica-
ton Committee, at it's meeting in
Montgomery last week, placed your
institution in the list Of "A" Grade
Academies.
Yours very truly,
STONEWALL ANDERSON.
This means that the Carlisle Fit
ting School ranks with the best pre-
paratory schools of the South. This
recognition on the part of the Board
of Education is a decided compliment
to the work of the school. This
means that the people Of Bamberg
could not send their children to
preparatory school in the South
where they would receive better pub
lie recognition than those who com
plete the course of study at the Car
Isle Fitting School. We think that
speaks pretty well for our little town
and our little school.
Talk to your friends about 1t;
write to them about it. Let them
know that we have something here
in the preparatory school line that
Is really worth while.
