KNIGHTS ENJOY OUTING.
Pythians and Their Wives and Sweet
hearts Enjoy Fish Fry.

One of the most enjoyable local
affairs in some time was the fish fry
given by the Bamberg lodge, Knights
of Pythias, to the members of the or
der and to their wives and sweet
hearts. Every member was allowed
the privilege of inviting one lady
guest, and most of the "boys" avail
ed themselves of the opportunity of
escorting their favorites Of the op-
posite sex. The fry was given at
''KittrelIs Inn," at Cannon's bridge
on the Edisto and was attended by
about $50 knights and their wives or
lady acquaintances. Fish stew, fried
fish and fried chicken were served,
and a most delightful evening was en-
joyed. After the supper, an enter
tanning and very appropriate short
address was made by DR.. Bailey, OF
Orangeburg, a past grand chancellor
and at present chancellor commander
of the Orangeburg lodge. He was
introduced by the Rev. Geo. P. White

ERECT MODERN STABLES.
Material Being Placed for Jones
Bros $4,000 Building.

Material is being placed on the
ground by Jones Bros, who operate
a. large sales and feed stable and We
hicle ablishment, for the erection
of modern stable building on Rail-
road avenue, on the site of the wood
en- structure burned several months
ago. Work will be commenced as
soon as the material is collected.
The building to be erected will be
one of the most modern of its kind
in this section of the State. 1t will
measure so by 1875 feet, and will have
a housing capacity for about 25O an
imals. The building will be fireproot
and modern in all respects. This sta
BILE will give the Jones Bros. concern
a floor space twice as large as all OF
their old stable buildings combined.
AS soon as the main building is
completed, a large storage room for
feedstuffs will be erected in the rear
of fireproof material. The cost CT
the main building will be approxi-
mately $4,000.

AIRPLANE PASSES HERE.
Lit. II. A. Boggs on Way to Charleston
Was Here in January.

Sunday afternoon Bamberg was
visited-or rather passed-by an air
plane, this being the second sight of
a heavier than air machine for Bam-
berg folks. The plane came from
Augusta and passed directly over the
city on the way to Charleston. The
machine was piloted by Lieut.. Harry
A. Boggs, who is remembered here
because of visit to Bamberg last
January, when in three planes num-
Der of aviators came to Bamberg and
spent a night and part Of day
here while mapping out air routes
for proposed mail delivery by air
plane. The machine Sunday, how
ever, did not stop in Bamberg, in fact
it did not even "hesitate," though the
buzz of the engine was heard all over
town, and a number of people recog-
nized the sound peculiar to airplane
engines and succeeded in getting a
good view of the machine as it pass
ed over.
Lieut.. Boggs is connected with the
Charleston Aero association, which
was recently organized, and is the
first concern of the kind ever inccr-
porated. Lieut.. Boggs has been in
Augusta for some days, and as he
stated there he is not flying around
in an airplane for his health. This
was further evidenced by the fact that
he did a landoffice business in carry
ing passengers for air joy rides in
Augusta at $40 per head. Lieut..
Boggs is a daring flyer, and during
his brief stay in Bamberg last Janu-
ary he entertained the town people
with some exhibitions of his skill and
daring by performing stunts over the
city.
The machine passed over this city
about 2:15 and reached Charleston
at o'clock, according to the News
and Courier. 1t may be safely stated
that this is ''going some.''

FISHING FOR TARPON.
Bamberg Gentlemen Had Fine Luck
on the Gulf of Mexico.

Two Bamberg gentlemen were in
party of. fishermen who returned
this week from Doca Grande, Fla,
where they went for few days OF
fishing on the Gulf of Mexico. Those
in the party were: Messrs. ]. A.
Wyman and w. D. Rhoad, of Bam-
berg, and A. F. McKissick and Capt.
Ellison McKissick, of Greenwood. The
story told by the local members of
the party is sufficient to turn the
followers of Izaak Walton green
with envy. They report having
caught 81 tarpon weighing an aver
age of 100 pounds each. Some fine
bass were also caught, one of which
tipped the scales at 2e pounds.
The tarpon, or silver king, is one
of the gamest of fish, and tarpon fish
ing is considered one of the great
est of sports by anglers. ~The party
was equipped with special outfit
of tackle, and although this was the
first experience with tarpon the To-
cal gentlemen have enjoyed, they met
with great success. They brought
back a fine specimen, and Mr.. /Wyman
is having it mounted.

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

Rev. Geo. P. White is assisting IN
a revival meeting at the Baptls1
church in Blackville, Rev. E. c. Wat
son pastor, this week.
Mr.. F. w. Free had the misfortune
to lose his tobacco barn by nre Iues-
day night. The barn had just oeen
completed and was worth several hum
dred dollars. The barn was full OF
tobacco, in the process of curing, the
value of which was considerable.
The Woman's Missionary siciety
of the Baptist church will meet next
Wednesday afternoon at o'clock at
the church. with Mrs. Geo. P. White
as leader. All the ladies of the So
ciety are urged to be present, and all
other ladies are cordially invited.
Good rains have visited various
parts of the county within the past
few days. Although it has been but
a few days since the county was VS.
tied by floods, the hot sun has dried
out the ground very fast, and the
showers this week were very help
full.
Here is what we call a model letter
brief, to the point, and with en-
closure: 'sBamberg, S. c., July Z,

find $500. Let The Herald come
another year. Yours very truly n.

Satisfactory progress is being made
in the construction of the road from
New bridge to Buford's bridge. The
road gangs have been grading be-
tween Bamberg and the Edisto river,
and this grading has been about COM
pleted. Grading is now going On be-
tween Bamberg and the Salkehatchie
river at a rapid rate. The applica-
tion of the sand-clay hard surface will
soon be started.
Captain J. B. Hunter celebrated his
seventy-eighth birthday last Sunday.
A.number of his children and grand

COUNTY AGENTS NOTES.
Marketing Expert and Veterinarian
to Visit Bamberg Soon.

The agent in marketing, U. S. de-
partment of agriculture, will soon
visit the county agent in Bamberg,
in the interest of helping the farmers
find markets for their wheat and 9TH
er grains or any other farm products.
Let me know if you want to see him.
On or about the 18th of July, the
State veterinarians Office in Colum-
bia will send a veterinarian to assist
me in inoculating against cholera
about 200 hogs around Ehrhardt.
Cholera is not reported in this coun-
ty, but it is in Colleton and Orange
burg counties.
Now is the time (until the middle
of July) to mound up the earth
around your peach trees for borers.
However, before pulling up the earth
around the trees, a trunk wash
should be applied to the trunk and
main branches. This trunk wash is
made of 20 lbs. quicklime, 3 lbs.
whale oil soap, lbs. sulphur and 20
gallons of water. This makes enough
to wash 325 trees eight years old.
Directions for making wash: Dis
solve the soap in three gallons of hot
water. Make thin paste of the sui
phur and add to the soap solution.
While the lime is being slaked in a
half barrel, the mixture is poured ov-
er it and the whole gradually diluted
to 25 gallons. Apply at once with
brush. GEO. R. BRIGGS,
County Agent.

ONE WOMAN KILLS ANOTHER.
One Tries to Take Other To Task for
Calling Son Bad Name.

According to the testimony of wit
nesses at the inquest over the dead
body of Ella Washington, colored' it
is not paying investment to call
people names. Ella was shot and
killed by Susie Nelson, another ne
gress, on July 4th, at Susie's house
I'D Denmark way. She was shot sew
eral times with pistol, and also bore
evidence of having been struck with
some blunt instrument several times.
It appears that the Washington
woman called on the Nelson woman
to take her to task for calling her
son rather vile name, so she claim
ed. and further added that she was
going to put Susie out of the way for
doing it. But Ella was the one who
was put out of the way. While 1t
was not brought out at the inquest,
it is said that the Washington woman
had the pistol, but that in the scuffle
the other woman took it away and
shot her with it.
The following is the testimony:
Lottie Mitchell: ''I was in the
room and heard Ella come and call
Susie and told her that she had come
to put an end to her this a. m. for
calling her boy a - -, and Su-
sic said to go out of the yard, she did
not want to have any row with her
this a. M, and Ella said to her, no,
she was not going anywhere, she
wanted to get rid of her for calling
her child a -, and Susie came out
of the window. I never came to the
door until I heard the pistol fire.
When I got to the door Ella was fall
ing. This is all saw. I did not see
the pistol in either ones hands. Don't
know how many snots were fired.
They tusselled to about where Ella
fell. Susie had the iron. The row
took place at Susie's steps,
James Mitchell: 81 saw the racket.
1 did not hear any words; did not see
the pistol fire. Was here in about
five minutes after she was dead.
When got here don't know how far
apart they were when the woman shot
her. The woman that did the shoot
ing was here and stated that this dead
woman had come to raise row and
she shot her. I heard three shots. "
DR.. Robert Black: Performed the
autopsy and found wound on left
cheek, three on right breast, one on
right breast caused by some blunt in
strument; 32-pistol bullet wound in
the medium line of chest, which was
sufficient to cause death.

NO WEEVILS FOUND.
Expert Visits Bamberg in Search o.
Pest, But Finds None.

This week the county farm demon
straticn agent, Mr.. George r.. briggs.
in company with Mr. J. a. Burley. of
the State Crop Pest commission, made
a tour of various parts Of the county
in search of evidence of the coltcn
bell weevil. and Mr.. Briggs stated
yesterday morning that none of the
weevils had been found.
Mr.. Briggs invited Mr.. Burley to
make this inspection because of the
report published by the weather b.l-
reau at Columbia that weevils had
been found in this county, and that
the pest was spreading rapidly here
Mr.. Briggs had no knowledge of the
presence of the weevil here, and COM
municated with the bureau in an eff.
fort to locate it, and acting on the
information thus secured, he and Mr.
Burley visited the scene Of the al
legged weevils near Embree. Nothing
but some pine bark weevils were
found, and this was evidently the
cause of the incorrect report.
Mr.. Briggs had a denial of the in
correct report published in the Colum
bia State several days ago. While
Bamberg county is alive to the Sc
riousness of the boil weevil pest, thu
county does not relish the unfavor
able publicity accorded it by the Co
lumbia weather bureau, and there il
a disposition on the part of the peo
pie to question the authority of th'
weather bureau in taking over th'
responsibility of locating boil wee
wills. The farm demonstration ser
vice has this matter in hand, and viii
surely let the people know of it whel
the cotton boil weevils put in thei
appearance. Untrue reports are do
ing the county an injustice and SOM
harm.
