Young Man Dies Suddenly.

Walterboro, Dec. 25.-The entire
town was saddened this morning to
learn of the sudden death of H. Ora
dy Griffin, which occurred here last
night. Mr.. Griffin was apparently in
good health, but heart failure prob
ably caused by indigestion took him
away after only a few hours illness.
His family did not realize that he
was so seriously i'll, and the end was
quite a shock to them and his large
circle of friends here.
Mr.. Griffin was in his twenties
was bright and industrious young
man, lately employed with the Coca
Cola Bottling company. He was a
son of the late Senator and Mrs.
Griffin, of this town. His brother,
Mr. Prentice Griffin, is in the employ
of the Atlantic Coast Line railroad
with a run on the local line from
Ehrhardt to Green Pond. He is sur
vived by another brother, Mr.. Earle
Griffin, a student at the Citadel, and
a younger brother, Clyde. One sis.
ter survives him, Mrs. R. NJ. Carter
of this city. His father and mother
preceded him.
The funeral services will be from
the house this afternoon, the Baptist
minister probably conducting it. In.
terment will be had at Live Oak
cemetery.

Child Suffers From Fire.

Cope. Dec. 14.-This morning be-
tween nine and ten o'clock a little
negro girl about six years Of age
was quite badly burned about the
hips, small of the back and legs by
her dress catching afre. The child
left the house and was running as
fast as she could, ana screaming and
her screams attracted the attention
of Mrs. J. D. Kitrell, who called two
colored men in a lot nearby, but the
child passed Mr.. B: B. Brickle's
house, and he being home at the
time, ran to her assistance, and near
ly had her clothes torn off about the
time the others reached them. It's
the same old story of parents going
off and leaving their children to them
selves, and had it been anywhere
where help was not so near, this
child, who is one of Henry Stukes's
would have probably lost her life.

A Very Quiet Christmas.

Christmas day and the few days
preceding Christmas passed off very
quietly in Bamberg. The amount OF
disorder was quite small, and there
were but few "drunks." This is IN
spite of the fact that the express Of
fee has been working over time de-
livering those familiar little pack
ages about as large as gallon.
Nearly all the stores remained
closed both Monday and Tuesday
The postofice kept Sunday hours, but
the carriers are not given a Christ,
mas holiday, therefore they made
their trips as usual.

"king Winter"

The Christmas exercises at the
Methodist church last Sunday eve
ming featuring King Winter were
splendidly carried out. The manner
in which each child rendered his or
her part proved to the large audience
that witnessed this interesting and
instructive entertainment that the
management of this department,
which was recently installed, have not
been idle. The excellent music OF
the church choir added much to the
Christmas spirit.

Galatz, Roumania's Great Port.

Galatz, .Roumania's largest and
most important commercial city sit
uated on the Danube, is the subject
of the following war geography bull
letin issued by the National Geo.
graphic society:
IF Field Marshal Won Mackensen's
drive through the Dobrudja had ex-
tended beyond the Tchernovada
bridgehead to the north as far as
Galatz. Roumania would have been
cut off entirely from the Black Sea,
and the traffic of the Danube would
have been bottled up. This city,
which has a population of more than
| 10000, is the chief lumber port of
| the kingdom and stands second to
Braila in grain shipments.
"Galatz enjoys signal commercial
advantages in it's situation on the
left bank of the Danube between two
great tributary arteries Of traffic, the
Sereth and the Pruth, the former ris-
ing in Bukowina and draining all of
central Moldavia, while the latter
rises in the Galician Carpathians and
flows in a southeasterly direction,
forming the boundary line between
Roumania and the rich Russian pro-
vince of Bessarabia. The mouth of
the Sereth is three miles southwest
of Galatz and the Pruth enters the
Danube 10 miles east of the city.
1.-THE new section of Galatz takes
the form of an amphitheater spread
out upon an elevation some distance
to the north of the river, and the
old town occupies the low land be-
tween the cliff and the water front.
Most of the residences are in the
new section, while the -four and
paste mills, the grain elevators and
the immense grain magazines are To-
Gated in the old town.
"Galatz is defended by three lines
of Notifications, resembling an en-
trenched camp. The Sereth line of
defense, which extends to the north
west as far as Focshani, distance
of As miles, is well supplied with
Krupp and Gruson guns.
"For a number of years Galatz has
been the headquarters of the Euro
pean commission of the Danube,
which had control of the improve
ments and the maintenance of the
channel through the lower reaches of
the river, the Sulina mouth of the
waterway being 80 miles east of the
city. At the time of the outbreak of
the war this commission was COM
posed of representatives of Austria
Hungary, France, Great Britain,
Germany, Italy, Roumania, Turkey
and Russia, all of which nations are
now involved in the war, so that for
the time being the commission is
completely disrupted.
"Galatz's rapid growth from a
town of 1000 inhabitants to place
ten times as large began in 1884,
the year that the first steamer ar
rived here after q successful and his
toric voyage down the river from the
Iron Gates, on the distant Hungarian
border.
"The region between Galatz and
the Pruth river is forbidding
swamp or mire, covering so square
miles, where fowl and half-wild
swine are to be found in great num-
bers. The swine have been known
to attack the peasants who frequent
the lowland to gather the gigantic
| roo6c which for

The Pruth. incidentally,

fuel The Pruth, incidentally, is
held in aversion by all Roumanians,
who believe that many of the calam-
tiles to which the flesh is heir have
come from beyond that waterway
cholera, war and famine. And a
lesser i'll, but one which tries the
patience of the peasant farmer, is
the burr which is brought over from
Bessarabia in the tails of the Rus
sian horses. These burrs creep up
clothing like things alive and make
an inextricable tangle of Woolly fab
RIGS. When they get in the names
and tails of animals they form stiff,
heavy mat like an immovable board
or club.
"Roumanians; Greeks, Bulgarians,
Russians, Armenians, Jews and the
recently emancipated Tsiiganes
(gypsies) mingle in the great bazaar
of Galatz. The Jews, who constitute
20 per cent of the population, are
the thrifty merchants of the port and
are largely in control of the export
trade in grain, lumber and cattle.
They also handle the imports Of tex
tiles, machinery, and coal.
ITO the tourist the most interest
ing building in Galatz is the Church
of St. Mary's, which contains the
tomb of the celebrated Cossack chief,
Mazeppa, whose intrigue with the
wife of a noble at the Polish court
and his dire punishment (being
bound naked to the back of wild
horse and set adrift on the desert)
have been immortalized in Byron's
poem. The tomb is supposed to have
been rifed of it's remains by the
Russians during one of their several
descents upon the city, for the mem
ory of Mazeppa is execrated by the
soldiers of the Czar inasmuch as he
became an ally of Charles XII OF
Sweden. He died of poison in the
same year that Peter the Great de-
feated Charles on the field of Pull
| towa."
