Between Flat Cars

A negro workman by the name OF
George Hayes was instantly killed
late Tuesday afternoon on the lum-
Der railroad of the Edisto River Lum-
Der company near the company's S
plant at Embree. Bamberg authori-
ties were notified of the occurrence
yesterday morning for the purpose OF
holding an inquest.
Hayes was an employee of the
lumber company, and was engaged
in coupling or uncoupling lumber fiat
cars on the company road when he
was caught between two of the cars
and crushed to death. The company
physician, DR.. J. S. Wimberly, of
Branchville, who was at Embree at
the time, was hastily summoned, but
he found that the man had met with
instant death when caught between
the cars.
1t is not known in exactly what
manner Hayes allowed himself to be
caught between the cars.

Sells Asparagus at
Very Nice Proft

A day or two ago the Bamberg
County Truck Groewrs association
received returns on the sale Of four
teen crates of asparagus for C. R.
Brabham, Sr., the total being S125,
or 75c bunch. This being the first
sale made through the association it
is a source of much qualification to
the officers and members of the or
ganization who feel that fine start
has been made by the marketing
concern.
Mr.. Brabham has about fifteen
acres in asparagus, which is now
about sixteen years old. The price
received was very satisfactory, and is
most encouraging to others who own
"grass" plots.
Grass is being sold in northern
markets anywhere from five to ten
dollars a crate of twelve punches, ac-
cording to the grade and pack of the
asparagus.

Making Good With Clemson's Team.

Bamberg friends of Julian H. Keel,
Of Allendale, student of Clemson and
brother of L. D. Keel, of Bamberg,
will be interested to know that he is
making good on the Clemson base
ball team. Clemson's aggregation
went ovef to Atlanta the other day
for a couple of games with Georgia
Tech. In the first game Mr.. Keel
was put in as pinch hitter and Sc
cured hit, and in the second game
he caught a beautiful game and
smashed out a home run in the fifth
inning, making one of the two runs
secured by his team in this game.
Rhett Turnipseed, a wei known
former Carlisle player, played first
base in both games for Clemson, in
the first of which he secured two,
made one run and made two errors.
He failed to secure a hit in the sec
ond game, but played errorless ball.

A Busy Little City.

For the past several days the poul-
try farm of Tom Chagaris and B. F..
Folk, Jr., in the lot in the rear of
Mr.. Chagaris's home in this city, has
been one of the show places of the
town. The special attraction just
now is the presence there Of nearly
1000 baby chicks, recently imported
by the gentlemen, who style their
business the Bamberg Poultry Farm.
Monday morning they received the
last shipment of white leghorn baby
chicks, seven hundred of them, less
a few that died on the way from
Grand Rapids, Mich, from which
place they came. The poultry farm
had already received three hundred
chicks, and of this number only ten
have been lost so far, and they are
now nearly two weeks old. If you
have never seen a thousand little
chicks in one place at one time, it
will be interesting to pay a visit to
the farm. The chicks will be kept
here for a few weeks and then car
ried out to the bigger quarters in the
country.

Negro Spirited Awqy
By SherifS. g. Ray

Considerable excitement resulted
in Denmark Friday afternoon from
the alleged insult of young white
girl by a negro, John Carter, and as
a measure of precaution Sheriff Ray
Friday night spirited the negro from
the county to point not made
known by the sheriff Sheriff Ray
was called to Denmark Friday night
and Immediately brought the negro
to Bamberg and thence carried him
to another Jail, as there were said
to have been threats of summary
vengeance.
The sheriff received word in the
early evening of the alleged attempt
and hastily went to Denmark, where
he found conditions that he consid-
cred warranted taking this action.
The night policeman in Denmark
had sent for. sheriff, believing that
an attempt might be made to take
the negro from the town guard
house.
According to statements from Den
mark, the young lady was passing
TIE barber shop of Carter, and the
negro invited her to stop in and let
him trim her haid, a circumstance
that nothing would be thought of, as
Carter served white trade only and
frequently bobbed the hair of girls
in the shop. It was while she was in
the BARRIERS chair that the alleged
insult was offered. The girl immedi-
ately escaped and told of the affair,
and it is said that the negro, realiz-
ing the seriousness of his offense,
hurried to the guard house and asked
to be locked up.
When the affair became generally
known, excitement prevailed among
some, and the policeman thought
best to have the negro removed for
safety. Excitement died down on the
removal of the negro and no attempt
was made to interfere with the Off
GERS in the discharge of their duty.
Carter has been in Denmark for
a good while and those who know
him are very much surprised at his
conduct. He was looked upon as
peaceable man, and it is said that he
had the confidence of many of the
white people of the town. He is
about 80 or 35 years of age; and
served with the American expedition
ary forces in France during the world
war. 1t is thought probable that his
conduct was due to whiskey, as it is
stated that he appeared to be under
the influence of alcohol when taken
into custody.
No trouble is anticipated by the
officers, and no statement is made
as to whether Carter will beibrought
back to Bamberg or not.
