Hundreds Visited Augusta.

Hundreds of Bamberg county peo-
PIE visited Augusta last week after
the fire. When the news spread over
the city Wednesday night that Au-
gnsta was burning, several automo-
bile parties were organized at once,
and a large number went over while
the city was yet burning, returning
the following morning. Thursday
morning dozen or more automobiles
carried parties over to view the dis
Aster, and every day since large num-
bers have paid the stricken city a
visit. Local visitors to Augusta de-
scribe the damage to the Georgia city
as being appalling. Of one of the
finest residence sections of the city
there now remains nothing except
hundreds of chimneys and SCARED
and fallen brick walls. Several
blocks of business buildings were al
so swept away, including the two
Augusta skyscrapers, both of which
were gutted by the fire.

Live Stock Agent in the City.

Mr.. L. w. Summers, live stock
agent of the cooperative farm ex-
tension work, was in the city last
Thursday. Mr.. Summers came over
from Orangeburg, where he has been
engaged in connection with the or
ganization of a packing house there
to confer with County Demonstrator
Heard in regard to the hog raising
industry of Bamberg county. Mr.
Summers was largely instrumental IN
the organization of the company IN
Orangeburg which will erect the
hacking house. He stated that it is
planned to have the packing house
in operation within the next te"
months, and that it will afford mar
ket the year round for hogs and cat
tie raised in lower Carolina. Witt
this ready market so near at hano
Mr.. Summers said, there is no rea
son why every farmer should no
raise hogs and cattle. This section
of the State is ideal for cattle rals
ing and it is believed that the indus
trv will be greatly stimulated by thF
location of market at Orangeburg.

New Theatre Opens.

The new Thielen Theatre building
was thrown open to the public Fri
day evening, when a six reel feature
picture, '"The Blindness of Virtue -
was shown. It had been planned to
have a matinee performance in the
afternoon, but this was omitted on
account of not being ready in time.
The evening performance was wit
messed by one of the largest crowds
the picture show has yet had. Every
seat was taken and many had to re-
main standing until the end of the
first show.
The new building seats 20S per
sons. The inclined floor gives
splendid view of the screen, and the
arrangement of the picture machine
does away with the Clicking usual
~ heard. The inside of the theatre
is tastefully finished, and the impos
ing front presents the appearance O.
a "real theatre" 1t is safe to sa!
that it is the best amusement hal
Bamberg has ever had.

Water Bond Election

Petitions have again been clrcu-
lated calling upon city council to or
der an election to vote on bond is
sue for the extension of the water
system of the city and for the install
lation of a modern water plant. 1t
is stated that sufficient signatures to
the petitions will be secured within
the next few days, and that there re-
mains but little doubt of the election
being called by council.
The present proposition is to vote
on a bond issue Of $4,000 to DC
used to make the necessary exten'
sions to the present water mains OF
the city, and for installing a thor
oughly sanitary water supply.
It is believed that there will be
little opposition to the proposed bono
issue, as the needs for a supply Of
pure water in Bamberg is apparent te
everybody. The proposed water
plant will supply pure water for al
purposes. At present all water 1o'
drinking and cooking purposes Il
SUPPLIED from pumps or purchased
in hotties. A supply of pure Watel
would mean a great deal to the peo
ple of the city from even fnancia
standpoint.

Demonstration at Work.

County Demonstration ]. J. Heard
arrived in the city few days ago to
take charge of the farm demonstra-
ton work in Bamberg county. Mr.
Heard has been demonstrator in Col
Teton county, with headquarters at
Walterboro, for some time. He was
recently transferred to this county
to succeed Mr.. W. B. Chitty, of Olar
who resigned. .
Mr.. Heard was to have taken
charge of the work in this county on
March first, but owing to the fact
that a successor in Colleton county
had not been secured, his transfer tc
Bamberg was delayed. Mr.. Heard
will have his headquarters in this
city. He is boarding with Mrs. l.
M. Aver, on Elm street.
Mr.. Heard is now preparing to Sc
cure data on the number OF hogs
raised in the county for sale las
wear, and the number that will bt
raised for sale this year. Cards viii
be sent out in few days to all th'
school trustees, who will be asked tt
give estimates for their respective
districts. AS there will be a packing
house erected in Orangeburg W1thll
the next few months, the hog raising
industry in Bamberg and other near
by counties promises to be a big as
set to the farmers. Mr.. Heard VIII
be glad to give any one any assistanc
that he can on this matter, or an
other that comes within the scope o
his duties.

In game of base ball-the first OF

conduct this store in the future. Mr..

sized crop of cotton will also be
planted, he said, but that very little
guano was being used; and there is
little chance of large cotton crop
In his neighborhood.
DR.. J. B. Black returned yesterday
morning from Charleston, where he
was called Tuesday afternoon to the
bedside of Mr.. M. J. Black. Mr..
Black has been suffering from pneu-
monia about three weeks. A few

wired that his condition was very
grave. Early yesterday morning, his
condition was slightly improved, and
while he is very weak and his condi-
lion still very serious, hopes are en-
fertained for his recovery.

GANGS AND JAIL INSPECTED.
Charities and Corrections RepreSen.
tative Visits Bamberg.

The State board of charities anC
corrections, through it's assistant sec
retary, Mr.. A. D. Oliphant, has finish
ed it's first inspections of the Bam
berg county jail and chaingangs. TIE
representative of the board spent
Wednesday and part of Thursday ir
Bamberg. He visited the Bamberg
Jail Wednesday morning and the
chaingang near Ehrhardt Wednesday
afternoon. Thursday morning he in.
spected the gang which is working
tho Colston road. Mr.. Oliphant left
for Fairfax Thursday afternoon tc
see a Barnwell gang.
The assistant secretary of the State
board of charities and corrections
said that Bamberg had the cleanest
county Jail he had seen in the State.
"The Bamberg jail was found in
excellent condition despite the fact
that it is not Jail of the modern
type and lacks sanitary equipment,
Mr.. Oliphant said. Lacking con-
crete floors, waterworks and sewer
age connections, this jail, is harder
to keep clean than many other jails
in South Carolina. Nevertheless, it
was found in good shape.
Mr.. Oliphant said that he was very
much pleased with the cooperative
attitude taken toward the work of
the board by Sheriff Ray and Super
visor Mcmillan. Copies Of his re-
ports on the Bamberg Jail and chain
gang will be sent to them and to
other interested citizens
Under the law the State board OF
charities and corrections has visitor
ial and advisory powers over all pen
al, charitable and correctional insti-
tutions in South Carolina. By work
ing with State and county officials
who have these institutions in charge
the board is striving to better the
conditions which surround the crimi-
nal and dependent classes. 1t start
ed it's work last June.

COUNTY CONVENTION CALLED.
Will Be Held May 1st.-Club Meet
ings Called for April 22nd.

County Chairman H. G.. Folk pub
fishes in this issue of The Herald ;
notice to the Democrats of the coun
ty, calling upon the various Demo
cratic clubs to meet on Saturday
April 22nd, for the purpose Of organ
izing and electing officers for the en-
suing term, and to elect count,
executive committeeman. The cOun
ty convention has been called to NEE
at the court house in Bamberg Mon
day, May 1st, at noon.
Under the new rules each club i:
entitled to representation at the
county convention based upon the
number of votes polled at the frs
primary of the preceding election
year. Under this rule, Chairman
Folk states, the representation vii
be cut down in several instances
The number of delegates was former
ly based upon the enrolment in the
various clubs.
With the holding of the club meet
ings and the county convention, the
county campaign will be formally
opened. While this will be the form
al opening, the campaign in Bamberg
county has been virtually going on
already for several weeks. There
are a large number of formal an
nouncements being carried in The
Herald for the various offices in the
county, and already there has been
one or two ostensibly social gather
ings-but where politics largely pre-
dominated.
The campaign this summer promls-
es to be a lively one. Practically
every office in the gift of the voters
will be filled in the primaries this
summer and in the general election
next fall! from president down to
magistrate-or from magistrate
down to president, whichever way
YOU choose to say it. The State con-
