estate, and Helen Dinsmore Hunting. ton, daughter of MT. and Mrs. Robert Palmer Huntington, were married to. day by the Rev. c. H. Duncan in 6 simple ceremony at Hopeland House Staatsburg, the home of the brides parents.
 The original wedding plans called for wedding in the church of St Margaret of which the Rev. MT. Dun- can is rector, with 250 spectators But the recent grave illness of MT Astor caused the change in the ar engagements.
 Following his wedding Vincent Astor was forced to retire to his room and remain there until o'clock when he and his bride left for Fern cliffe, the Astor estate. At Ferncliffe tonight he was under the care of a physician and two nurses.
 A member of the family said that Mir. Astor would have to be mighty careful" of himself for several weeks. At the end of month, it is hoped, he will be sufficiently recovered to go abroad with Mrs. Astor. Spring Laxative and Blood Cleanser.

Rivers Bridge Memorial.

The annual memorial services at
Rivers Bridge last Thursday were
we'll attended, although the crowd
was not as large as We have seen
there on former occasions. The
music by the choir was excellent,
the speech of introduction of the
venerable and honored president of
the Association, DR.. N. F. Kirkland,
Sr., who introduced Senator E. D.
Smith, was timely, and the Junior
Senator certainly did himself proud.
He was introduced by DR.. Kirkland
as a man with three hobbies: wo-
men, Confederate soldiers, and cot
ton, and taking these as text you
might say, the Senator delighted his
audience.
The day was most pleasant in
every respect. The weather was per-
feet, the crowd was good-humored
and sociable, and there was no un-
pleasant incident to mar the pleas
ure of the occasion. 1t was our
good fortune to meet many old
friends there, and we appreciated
their kind words of greeting.

Three Bicycles Stolen.

Saturday night about 1880 three
negroes living on the plantations of
Messrs. Henry Zeigler and Wilmot
Jennings, in the Fork section of
Orangeburg county, stole three bicy-
cles from Messrs. B. w. Simmons, H..
C. Folk and Evelyn Sandifer, of this
city. Their employers learned of the
theft and of the owners of the bicy-
cles and brought the negroes to the
city Monday, together with the stolen
wheels. They suggested to the own
ers that they administer corporal
punishment to the negroes, instead
of prosecuting them, as it would do
more good, and at the same time,
they would not lose their hands.
They agreed to this, and the negroes
were given a good dogging, after
which the employers returned to
their places with the negroes, con-
siderably sore, but much wiser.

Hunta-JOhns.

The friends of Hon. J. A. Hunter
were delightfully."- surprised last
Wednesday when they received an
nouncements of his marriage. He
was quietly married Wednesday Of
last week at Baldock to Miss Gladys
Johns, eldest daughter of Mr.. W. /.
Johns. Rev. J. R. Cullom was the
officiating minister. So secret had
the fact of the approaching event
been kept that even his most init
mate friends knew nothing of it.
The ceremony took place about
two o'clock Wednesday afternoon,
and shortly afterward Mr.. and Mrs.
Hunter went by auto to Blackville,
where they took a train for Northern
points of interest, on a bridal trip.
They are still away, and on their
return will be at home to their
friends in this city, where the bride
is well-known and has relatives and
friends. She is graduate of Brenau
College and Conservatory, is a skill
ed musician, and will be an addition
to the social life of Bamberg, where
she will receive a warm welcome.
Mr.. Hunter is a son of ex-Sherlf
J. B. Hunter, who, after a successful
career as a teacher, is now promi-
nent merchant of this city. He has
represented this county in the legis-
lature for two terms, making a fine
record, and is now candidate for
Lieutenant Governor. His friends
congratulate him on his good fortune
so far, and trust that he will meet
with further success politically.

NEGRO KILLED HIS WIFE.
Charlie Wright Shot Pearlie Wright
Five Times at Negro Church.

Sunday Afternoon Charlie Wright,
a negro residing on Mr.. J. H. Fend-
er's plantation, in Colleton county,
shot and killed his wife, Pearlie
Wright, at Folks Chapel, negro
church, Just over the line in Bamberg
county. Wright gave himself up to
Mr.. Fender, who turned him over to
the Bamberg authorities, and he is
now in Jail.
Coroner Zeigler held the inquest.
1t seems that no one knows what the
trouble was between Wright and his
wife. They were attending church
services at the church Sunday, the
woman being in the church. Wright
came to the church door and called
his wife out. They got into their
buggy and apparently meant
to drive away. A short dis
tance from the church his
began running back toward the
church, Wright following her. When
she was few yards from the church,
he shot her four times, it is said,
in the back, one shot going stray.
She fell Immediately, and he is said
to have stood over the dying woman
and fired another shot into her head.
She died Immediately. After the
killing, Wright went to the well, re-
loaded his pistol and went into the
church. Upon his entrance a gen.
eral and hurried exodus took place,
through the doors and windows. He
afterward returned home and gave
up to Mr.. Fender.
No testimony was brought out at
the inquest to show the cause OF
the trouble, but it is said that Wright
was drinking at the time.
