TAKE NEGROES TO ATLANTA.
Augusta Authorities Fear Mob Flo-
lence Against Prisoners.

Augusta, Ca, Dec. 17.-Because
of the fact that quite number of
people from Jefferson County have
been in Augusta all day to-day, and
that the country in that vicinity
where Mrs. Jefferson Irby was muir
dered Sunday afternoon is still in a
condition of extreme excitement, the
three negroes who are said to have
confessed the crime were quietly
spirited from jail here to-day to the
Georgia Road train at Steedley' S
Crossing and taken to Atlanta.
The Governor was apprised of the
conditions and the possibility that
attempt may be made tonight to
form a crowd outside of Augusta.
Out of abundance of precaution,
though it was admitted that dozen
men could hold the Jail here against
several thousand, the negroes,
George and William Hart and Rob
ert Paschall, were ordered transfer
red to Atlanta.

EAVES.-In sad, but loving mem
ory of our dear mother, Mrs. U. M.
Eaves, who departed this life Novem-
Der 20th, 1913.
Dear mother, thou hast left us,
And thy loss we deeply feel,
But it's God who hath bereft us,
He will all our sorrows heal.
One month has passed, and oh! how
we miss her,
Friends may think the wound Is
healed.
But there's none who knows the sor-
row,
Deep within our hearts concealed.
Long days and nights she bore in pal
Long days and nights she bore IN
pain,
To wait for cure was all in vain,
But God who knoweth all things best
Did cease her pain and give her
rest.
Farewell, dear mother. thou art gone
And shall forever be.
You could not stay on earth with me,
But I can come to thee;
God called her home, it was his Will,
But in our hearts we love her still.

A committee of trial. consisting OF
thirteen preachers, some of whom
we know and respect, at the recent
session of the Methodist conference.
found Rev. S. A. Nettles guilty of
immortality and he was suspended
from the ministry for three months.
Ten of the trial committee signed
the verdict, three refusing to sign it..
AS we understand the matter Mr..
Nettles was convicted of falsehood.
and with all respect to the committee.
we cannot but believe that they
made a mistake. We have known Mr..
Nettles for many years, for a long
time being intimately associated with
him, and we know he will not lie.
Hasty of temper and action he may
be and he has his faults, as we all
have, but he is not untruthful in any
way, shape or form.

More than thirteen thousand dol
lars worth of whiskey was sold by
the five dispensaries in Bambers
county during the month of Novem-
Der. If this money had been spent
for clothing, shoes, and other things
which would be of benefit to the peo-
pie, just think how much better
off our county would be. We are not
inveighing against the system, be-
cause it is much to be preferred to
the blind tigers, but if ever there was
a. time when temperance should be
preached to the people it is now.
Thirteen thousand dollars a month
spent for whiskey in as small coun-
tv as Bamberg is a terrible drain on
the resources of the county, and we
are all bound to feel it, either direct
" or indirectly.

Dogs SIX YEAR VIGIL.
Shepherd Who Waited For Dead Mas
ter is Killed BY Auto.

Shep, the dog that has waited, in
front of the DAILY bank, six long years
for his master, is dead. He was run
ever by an automobile and was so
seriously injured that he was shot.
Six years ago Shops master, sheep
herder, came to town after sea-
son on the range. He brought the
dog with him. Shep waited outside
the bank while his master went in
side to cash a check. While inside
the man was stricken with appopleNy.
placed on a stretcher and taken to
hospital in an ambulance, says an
Anaconda, Mont, dispatch.
1t did not look natural to Shep, but
he followed the ambulance to the hos
pital and waited outside for several
days. The master died few hours
after reaching the hospital. Shep saw
the funeral procession, but it was un-
usual, and he still waited. Then he
remembered that his master had
gone into the bank the last time he
had actually seen him, so he went
there and curled up on the front
steps and waited. For months he
would look up expectantly every time
someone came out of the building,
hut his hopes began to wane. In spite
of this he kept constant vigil and
had made the front of the bank his
home for six years, only leaving long
enough to get something to eat.
He grew old and deaf during his
long wait. Each year President E. j.
Brixman, of the bank, paid his tax to
the city, but he still waited for the
sheep-herder, who did not come out
of the bank. For the last few months
Shep has been stiffening with age so
fast that that it was an effort for
him to walk Then a flying automo-
bile struck him and broke his back.

'Bamberg county is keeping up its
unenviable record for the number Of
killings within it's borders.

The Nettles case is still a subject
of interest in Methodist circles, and
it seems likely to be discussed for
some time to come, at least until
the appeal of Mr.. Nettles is decided
by the general conference. We some
times wonder if there is not just
about as much politics in the church
as there is outside. Certainly the
recent happenings at conference has
done little to strengthen the church
as a soul saving Institution.
