1t was after a watch on his apart
ments on Eddy street in San Fran
cisco for several hours that Capt.
Arthur McDuffie spied Lionel Hart,
under indictment here for embezzle-
ment, leaving a Powell street saloon
in the early hours Of the morning.
Hart was taken into custody by Nc
Duffie, with the assistance Of three
members Of the San Francisco de.
tective bureau who had been detailed
to aid him In the search for the erst,
while broker. t
Harris presence in San Francisco
was learned through q former Homo.
lulu resident who saw him upon the
streets and SO informed the police.
About the same time Sheriff Charles
Rose asked the San Francisco police
to be on the lookout for Hart, and.
coincident with this request, he ca
bled to Detective McDuffie to appre-
bend Hart II possible. .-.=z
After leaving Honolulu Hart first
fled to China, later going to San
Francisco by the northern route.

Carlisle Ties Darlington.

The Carlisle foot ball team closed
it's season on Thanksgiving day, play
ing against the Darlington high
school at Darlington. This game re-
suited in tie score, 0 to 0, and the
reports indicate that it was one of
the finest and hardest fought games
played in Darlington in long while.
Darlington is known to have one of
the best high school teams in the
Pee Dee section of the State and has
an excellent record for the season.
The Carlisle boys have made wonder
full strides in foot ball since Coach
Major took charge of them the first
of the school year, and the team that
finished the season had rounded into
good machine for so little exper-
ience. In the Darlington game Tur-
nipseed, Gibson, Luther and Emman-
uel all played fine ball for Carlisle.
If Carlisle is fortunate enough to re-
tain Coach Major for next year and
he can have some of these boys back
from which to build his 1918 eleven
the local school should be on the
foot ball map good and strong.

FOLK.ZEIGLER.
Miss Louise Folk and MIR. Paul Zeig-
Ter Quietly Married Thursday.

Probably the biggest surprise for
number of years in Bamberg social
circles was the marriage Thanksgiv-
ing evening of Miss Louise Folk to
Mr.. Paul J. Zeigler. The marriage
was a very quiet home affair, the
ceremony being performed by the
Rev. E. o. Watson, D. D., pastor of
Trinity Methodist church, at the
home of the bride on Railroad ave-
nue. in this city. Only few close
relatives of the bride were present.
The most intimate friends of the
young couple were kept unawares
of their intentions, and the news of
the marriage did not leak out until
the ceremony had been completed.
The marriage of this popular
young couple will be of much inter-
est throughout the State, as they are
both widely known and prominent
socially. Mrs. Zeigler was one of
Bamberg's most attractive young Ia
dies, and is the youngest daughter
of Col. and Mrs. John F. Folk, Of
this city. She first attended Colum-
bia college, and later graduated from
Converse. She has always made
Bamberg her home and has hundreds
of friends here as well as college
friends scattered over the State. Mr..
Zeigler is young man of sterling
qualities and is well known in Bam-
berg, having frequently visited rel
atives here. He is a graduate of the
Citadel in the class of 1913, where
he made many friends who will be
interested to learn of his marriage.
He is originally from Allendale, but
for the past few years has been en-
gagged in the United States govern
ment civil service work on the 18TH
mus of Panama. Mr.. Zeigler has
now enlisted in the aviation branch
of the army, and will leave shortly
for a military camp to begin training
for a commission as an aviator.
Mr.. and Mrs. Zeigler left on the
SIT Southern train Thursday night
for a short honeymoon to Atlanta,
after which they returned to Bam-
berg Tuesday morning, and are now
here. The friends of Mrs. Zeigler
will be glad to know that she will
probably remain in Bamberg at least
for while.

Several Sales Made Monday.

Monday being the first Monday
and salesday numbers of people came
to town for the event, and the streets
had the appearance of a Saturday
afternoon. Several important sales
of real estate were made, six differ
ent tracts of farm lands being sold
by the probate judge acting as mas
ter. Most of the sales were occas-
ioned by partition suits, the heirs to
the property wishing the estates set
tied up in full.
The first sale grew out of the case
of Mrs. E. E. Platts, ct al, VS.. Meta
Bell Lightsey, ct al, and included 81
acres of land which was sold to j..
F. HERS for $4,000.
A tract of so acres of swamp land
was also sold under an. order of the
court in the above mentioned case
and brought s125, A. NJ. Denbow be-
ing the highest bidder.
In the case of ] Aldrich Wyman
VS.. Frank Davis, ct al, tract con-
sisting of 4S 1-2 acres was sold to
A. NJ. Denbow for $3.50.
The next piece sold was 5S-acre
tract, which sale resulted from the
case of Florence Rentz, ct al, VS.. w.
S. Proveaux, ct al. This land was
purchased by w. S. Proveaux for
$500.
A tract Of 106 acres was bought
by B. w. Smith, the purchase price
being $500, and the sale resulting
from the case of John B. Smith, ct al,
executors, VS.. B. W. Smith, ct al.
The final sale was also the result
of the last mentioned case, and con-
sisted of SO acres which was bought
by J. R. Strickland for $3.50.

Memminger Defeats Bamberg.

The girls Of the Bamberg high
school basket ball team went to Char
lesion last Saturday for game with
the Young ladies of the Memminger
school. The local team lost by a
decisive score, but only after a hard
game. and were very favorably COM
mented upon for their gameness. The
final score was As t. IS, but when
it is taken into consideration that
the Memminger school probably has
the finest girls basket ball team in
the State, it will probably be realized
that the Bamberg girls did we'll. The
Bamberg sextet has already defeated
Carlisle, Orangeburg and Barnwell,
and undoubtedly has the best team
of any school in this section. Miss
Mary Williams especially played
splendidly in Charleston and the
girls and their coach, Miss Lucy Bo-
mar, are due praise and congratula-
tions. They all enjoyed themselves
on the trip and after the game a de-
lightful dance was rendered them,
Metz's band furnishing the music.
Those who went to Charleston were:
Misses Lucy Bomar, coach; Mary Will
liams, Mamie Faust, Mamie Sue
Smoak, Mildred Jones, Rebecca Dick
inson, Lucille Folk and Wilhelmina
Sandifer.

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

Several new buildings and inn
provements and changes to old ones,
including business houses and resi-
aences, are under way in Bambers
at present.
~ large crowd, both white and ne
sroes, attended the negro perform

here Tuesday night.
Frank Bay Wade. the infant son
of Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel H. Wade, Of
"a Amherst street, Charleston, died
Friday evening at the home of his
parents. The funeral and interment
took place Sunday at Denmark.
News was received in the city this
week of the death OF MIR. w. Fred
Bamberg, OF Valdosta, Ga. son of
the late James D. Bamberg. He
died at his home in Valdosta on Sat-
urday, Dec. 1st. MI Bamherg had
many relatives in this section, who
will learn with sorrow Of his death.
Monday and Tuesday of this week
were apparently two of the busiest
days seen in Bamberg in long while
and all day long the streets remind
ed one of Saturday afternoon. The
merchants generally report splen-
did business, and those who came in
to town seem to have had the cash.
The secretary of State has issued
a commission to the H. c. Folk COM
pany of Bamberg, to conduct gener-
al mercantile and supply business.
The proposed capital stock of the
concern is $4,000, and the commits
sioners are: H. C. Folk, M. E. Folk,
H. N. Folk and J. w. Folk, all of
this place.
Mr.. S. A. Hand had delivered to
him at Cordova last week solid
car load of fruit and ornamental
trees, which he had sold to the peo-
pie of that section. This is said to
to be the first solid car of trees ever
delivered in this section, and the
people of the lower part of Orange
burg evidently intend to produce
fruit
Many fireworks, toys and other
decorations are being displayed this
week in the show windows along Main
street, all of which reminds us that
the Christmas season is fast ap-
preaching and will soon be upon us.
We predict a remarkable business be-
tween now and the holidays, and our
merchants who advertise will be
startled at their enormous sales.

Party Goes to Detroit.

Eight men left Bamberg Tuesday
morning for a long journey and a
novel experience. Most of them are
Young men and practically all are
Bamborg residents. The crowd went
by autom obiles from here to Orange
burg,> where they boarded the Caro-
lima special for Cincinnati, and from
there they go to Detroit. Freight
traffic is so congested throughout the
country that it is more than difficult
to get anything shipped by rail, and
tie object of those making the trip
is to so direct to the factory in De-
troit of a we'll known automobile and
obtain eight cars, each one of the men
driving a car home through the coun-
try. The cars will be delivered to
a local dealer. This is the only way
that the cars could be obtained in
any reasonable time, and the Bam-
berg men will be Joined by others
who will make up party OF 23 from
this section, each going to drive
back car.
1t will be a great trip for most of
them and if the weather is not too
severe they should enjoy themselves
to the fullest and no doubt expert
ence some interesting happenings.
They expect to arrive back here in
from two to three weeks. Those who
went from here are: Messrs D. w.
Phillips, J. J. Heard, D. P. Matheny,
Eddie Jackson, Bryan Rutland, R. L.
Beard, Copeland Zeigler, and Willie
OFT McCue.

One CAN DEPEND
UPON STATEMENT
of HIS NEICHBOR
Norris n. Smith, of Rome Ga, Tells
of Bad Stomach Condition and
What Vitona Did For Him

Home Observation-Disclosures most
frequently the people who know and
are willing to tell the world about
the benefits derived from medicine
originated in their midst. When
they speak in the highest praise OF
the tremendous help medicine Is
to them, declaring that they would
not be without it in their homes
under any circumstances and do this
without any pecuniary reward, yen
can aways place absolute upon such
statements. Here, for instance, is
statement from Norris m. Smith.
He is a we'll known real estate man
of Rome, Georgia, from right near
which city the mineral is found from
which Vitona is made. Here is
what Mr.. Smith said:
For sometime had suffered from
a general rundown condition; I
had a bad stomach trouble of some
kind, and could eat and retain but
little solid food. Frequently after a
meal, even though I would eat very
lightly, 1 would be sick on my
stomach, and in a short time would
lose what l had eaten. began using
Vitona because I had heard of It's
good effects and I was told that 1t
would give me relief. With one
weeks time, after taking as directed,
began to show a steady improve
ment, and in a short time was alb
solutely cured. feel entirely well
now, and contribute my condition to
Vitona. I would not be without 1t
in my house under any circum-
stances"
Not only in cases similar to Mr..
Smiths, but in all cases of stomach.
kidney, liver, catarrhal trouble, VI
tona goes straight to the seat OF
affection.

Hugo Liked Punctuation.

In one of Victor Hugo's letters
to Baudclairc he dwells on his pas
sion for perfect punctuation. As
an instance of this Hugo mentions
that he made his printers furnish
him with eleven rcvises of the
proofs of 'La Legende des Siecles," p"
the last ten of which were required
only in order that the commas
might be put in the right places.
Thomas Campbell was equally fas-
tidious in this respect. He once
walked SIX miles to his printers (and
six miles back again) to have "a
comma changed into Il semicolon.

Spray Trees Early for
Large Fruit Crop.

Now is the time for the fruit
grower to make a big cut in high
food prices for this fall, by ir-
creasiLg yields through a little
timely spring work. Early spray
ing to kill scale insects before anv
leaves appear may be the differ
ence between success and failure
in his fruit crop. Entomologists
at the Ohio Experiment Station
say that 80 per cent of all the
good from spraying comes from
that dcne in March, April and
May.
All fruit trees, except sour
cherries, since they are seldom
attacked by San Jose scale, should
be sprayed with either CONNER
cial concentrated lime-sulphur
solution diluted with seven parts
of water, or a good miscible oil
diluted with Is parts of water,
during March OF April before the
leaves expand. The experts say
it is better to spray even as late
as when the blossoms are
showing pink than to omit |
this spray for trees infested with |
scale. The material may be ab-
piled with either hand or a
power sprayer. Thoroughness of
application is essential to success
in controlling scale insects.

The lifting of the prohibition
on imports of potatoes from Bri-
tish Columbia resulted in heavy
importations from that province
during the past year, about 49,
600 bushels coming into the Uni.
ted States, compared with 80, 300
bushels the year before. In JAN
uary and the first half of Febru-
ary, of this year. 1O2, 200 bushels
came in and the landslide is now
on in earnest. Potatoes paid a
duty of rs cents a bushel in Re-
publican times, but the people
were promised cheaper spuds if
they were put on the free list,
which the Wilson, Underwood tar
if law provided for. Have pota-
toes at any time since 1918 been
cheaper than they were prior to
the enactment of the Democratic
tariff law? No. Then who has
profited by the action of free
listing them? Foreign potato
growers, of course.
