revolutionary soldier and whose moth

a smile at his credulity. He was the

The Election in This County.

The election on the question OF
the continuance of the dispensar!
system or the Inauguration Of State
wide prohibition passed off quietly
in Bamberg county. There was no
great deal of interest shown in the
election, and the vote was light COM
pared to the voting strength at pri-
mary elections. The full vote in the
county could not be ascertained up to
a late hour yesterday, but the indica-
tions are that the county went with
the "drys" by a large majority. The
Bamberg central precinct voted for
prohibition by SO to 64, little more
than a two-thirds majority. No dis
turbances or unpleasantness has been
reported from any box in the county.
Up to yesterday afternoon none OF
the boxes had been brought in, and
the official results could not be as
certained. 1t was learned that the
Ehrhardt box gave "a for prohibition
and so against, and it was stated
that Denmark gave large majority
against the dispensary.

Now a State Warehouse.

The Bamberg Cotton Warehouse
will within the next few days be-
come part of the State warehouse
system. Application was made sew
.eral days ago by the warehouse au-
.thorities to become part of the
State warehouse system, and it is
understood that the application is
acceptable, and that all formalities
will be concluded soon.
Under the State system, the local
warehouse will pay the State ware
house commissioner, Hon. John l..
McLaurin, three cents per bale on
all cotton stored. The insurance
will be carried throught the State
commissioner at a much reduced
rate than is obtained >~otherwise.
When cotton is stored in the local
warehouse a temporary warehouse
receipt is issued by the local manag-
er; afterward a receipt is issued by
the State commissioner. The State
warehouse receipt is negotiable at
any of the federal reserve banks.
There are great many advan-
tages in being connected with the
State warehouse system, and many
of the local warehouses in various
sections have become part of the
system.

Millinery Openings.

The three millinery stores of the
city today carry announcements Of
the fall millinery openings. The
stores, as has been the custom for
some time, decided to hold the open
ings on the same dates, September
22nd and 23rd.
1t is stated that the millinery
openings will display an unusually
pretty line of headwear this fall. The
new fall shapes and styles are grace
ful and have plenty of life in them.
The openings have much attraction
for the ladies, who await the semi
annual occasions with much interest
and anticipation.

Cotton Worth 10 ii.

price first declined at the beginning

opened at 10 1-16 to 10 IA. Ten

good cotton, the average price being
about ten cents. A great deal of the
staple is being sold, but very little
money is as yet in circulation, as the
first cotton is credited on accounts,
generally. A we'll known cotton man
was quoted day or two ago as say
