SHORT LOCALS.
Brief Items of Interest Throughout
the Town and County.

Never have We seen such rush as
there has been at the post Office this
week. The postmaster and clerks
have been rushed day and night.
DR.. NJ. Herbert Warn finds that
he cannot meet his appointment ad-
vertised for Ehrhardt for December
26th to January 9Th, and asks us to
so state.
The trains of the Southern Rail-
way which pass Bamberg have been
running badly behind time recently.
1t fact it is seldom that train reach
es here on time.
All the boys and girls who have
been away at college are at home for
the Christmas holidays. We are glad
to see them. But there are too many
of them to attempt to publish their
names.
Mr.. J. E. Fielder, a son of Capt.
and Mrs. J.. D. Fielder, of this city,
has been elected intendant of the
town of Cope, where he is now max
ing his home. You can't keep Bam-
berg boys down.
The stores will close Thursday
for Christmas, the banks will close
two days, and the post Office will OBJ
serve Sunday hours Thursday. Some
of the stores will possibly close
Thursday and Friday.
We are not printing but a four
page paper this week. In the first
place there is not much news, every
body seems intent on taking Christ
mas and our force has been rush
ed out of all reason recently. Then,
too, we have not large amount of
advertising.
Mr.. W., NJ. Brabham was taken to
a hospital in Charleston last week,
as he was suffering from an attack
of appendicitis. He was operated
on and stood it well. He is doing
nicely, and his many friends will be
glad to know that he will be back
home before very long.
The fire company has tested out all
the hose on hand and lot of new
hose has been ordered, and 8e de-
partment will be in good shape to
take care of fires should there be
any during the holidays. But every
body should be mighty careful with
fire, especially at this season.
Over in Orangeburg those people
who are behind the movement to
recall the mayor and one of the coun-
cilmep of that city are trying to
get Col'W G. Smith to run for mayor
in the recall election to be held
soon, even announcing his candidacy
in the newspapers there, but he de-
clined to run.
Notwithstanding the late trains
at night, the last mail arriving is al
ways distributed at the post office
here. This keeps the force on duty
very late, and is not required by the
department, but it is done to ac-
commodate the public. Recently the
night mail has been distributed long
after nine o'clock.
On account of the wreck near Au-
gusta Monday no mail was received
at Bamberg Monday morning. The
train finally arrived about one o'clock
in the afternoon, but there was no
mail clerk on it, and no mail was
received or sent off on either of the
morning trains. Mail was received
and dispatched on the night trains,
although both were very late, the
last mail not arriving until nearly
II O'Clock. However, the mail was
distributed and the general delivery
window opened, something that has
not been done in Bamberg in our
recollection.

Game Wardens Puzzled.

A puzzle to game wardens now
that the bunting season IS open
is the manner in which the hunt
ers are making use of the parcel
post system says the Marinette
Eagle-Star. 1t is said that the
parcel post unconsciously protect
the "bird hog" who is forbidden
bv law TO shoot more than TWEEN
tv-fve birds. The hunters are
taking advantage of the law
which prevents the game ward
ems from inspecting the United
States mail, by shooting more
fowl than the law permits and
sending them to friends The par
eel post regulations allow ship
ment of the dressed game in the
$50 mile zone.

PARTRIDGE LAW MIXUP
Season Was Closed, Then it
Opened, and Again Slam
med Shut Hunters and
Game Wardens Were All
Tangled.

One on the greatest mixups in
the game laws ever known in the
state, especially in the northern
part, was going on the past
week.
1t had the game wardens and
partridge enthusiasts up in the
air until Monday, all due to a
decision of the attorney general.
The 1913 legislature passed an
act prohibiting the hunting OF
partridge until Oct. 1st, instead
of Sept. 10th as formerly. The
law has been a hard one to di-
gest on account of its intricate
legal construction.
Up to last Tuesday the hunter
had come to the conclusion that
he would hold himself in leash
until Oct. 1st today
But there appeared in last
Tuesdays papers a dispatch
from Madison, as follows:
The open season for wood
cock, partridge, plover and
snipe is from Sept. 10 to Dec.
1, according to an opinion
given today by Attv-General
Owen to Chief Game Warden
John A. Sholts.
There appeared at first to be
some misunderstanding as to
the law because the section
which provided for this open
season enumerated a certain
number of counties in which
the law regulating the open
season for prairie chicken and
grouse should apply.
When the above decision ap-
peared the partridge enthusiast
hooked up old Dobbin and made
things lively. first, however, Sc
curing confirmation from local
game wardens.
Everything was merry and
partridge is said to have been
the piece de resistance for several
days-until Monday of this week
when the following Madison dis
patch appeared:
Because district attorneys
inquiry referred to the old
1911 statute and not the 1913
amendments, the attorney
generals department has is
sued a corrected ruling relative
to the closed season for wild
game. Under the latest stat
ute it is held that the open
season for partridge is from
Oc-. / to Dec. /.
The joke is on somebody and
it looks as though the attorney
general and chief game warden
are responsible for a few days Of
stolen sport which the average
fellow grabbed off.
Beginning today it is lawful to
hunt partridge until Dec. 1st.
Ten birds constitute a bag.

FIRE MARSHAL INSPECTS
Orders Razing of Ruins Or
posite Depot Within Sixtv
Days-Other Buildings and
Sheds Remodeled or Re-
moved.

District Fire Marshal I. E.
Kennedy gave Eagle Rivers bus
mess section a rigid investigation
last Thursday in company with
members of the local fire com
pany and the result was that he
ordered the razing of the ruins
OF the old O'Connor building,
opposite the depot, within sixty
days. Vim. Hartung of Milwau-
kee is now owner of that prop
ertv.
The Mcleod building next the
Commercial Hotel on Railroad
street, the Hanson building on
Wall street east of Hotel Austin
have been ordered repaired or re-
moved within short time. At
the same time several minor
buildings and sheds in the bust
ness district were also ordered
torn down. Easements were in
spected and in several instances
were ordered cleared of debris of
an inhammable nature.
According to a new ruling
every chief of a fire department is
a deputy state fire warden and
it is his duty to see that reports
are made to the state fire mar
shall in every instance where
there is a fragrant violation.
The local fire department must
inspect the business district every
three months and the residence
section every six months.
