Reorganization of the South Caro-
lima Railroad.

1t seems that the recent talk about the
difficulties in the way of the reorganiza-
ton of the South Carolina Railroad was,
after all, in the nature of a scare; at least
if there was anything in 1t, all the trou.
BILE has been removed. This is admitted
in the columns of the Charleston NeUs
and Courier of Saturday, which says,
editorially, that there is no further
difficulty in the way of extending the
tracks of the South Carolina Railroad
to the water. The work will begin early
and be finished promptly. This informa-
ton m in a shape which warrants
entire confidence in its accuracy"
We also see by the Courier that Gen.
T. NJ. Logan, of Richmond, a prominent
member of the Clyde combination, tele-
graphs that ''there is no foundation
whatever for the rumor hat the Rich
mond and Danville syndicate have, or
will, in any way, obstruct the reorgani.
cation of the South Carolina Railroad"
The statement made by Major Brawley,
in our Charleston contemporary, and
which was recently reproduced in the
columns of the News, was that he had
been informed that the Richmond and
Danvllle combination had made ar offer
to buy the syndicate's claims against the
South Carolina Railroad. This infor-
nation was given Major Brawley by two
of the counsel for the syndicate, and the
presumed purpose of the reported offer
was to obstruct the reorganization of the
South Carolina Railroad.

The May number of Scri5ner's comes,
as usual, elegantly printed and full of
bright and interesting articles. The
illustrations, if possible, are even better
than they have been, and the number
will be greeted with a warm welcome by
its thousands of readers. There is a very
fine full page engraving of Thomas
Carlyle, after a photograph by the late
Mrs. Cameron. which is the frontispiece
of the magazine, and Ralph Waldo
Emerson furnishes an article giving
his impressions Of the great Eng
IIsh scholar in 1913. The open
ing article of the number is by
John Muir upon ''The Wild Sheep of
the Sierras," which is splendidly illus
trated, and another lavishly illustrated
paper is from B. E. Martin on I'm and
Out of London with Dickens" which
everybody will read with intense inter
est. a fine poem by Hjalmar Hjorth
Boyesen entitled "Calpurnis," would be
at once attractive without the engravings
with which it is embellished. The other
sketches are as timely and readable as

We see it stated that the great grain
growers of California have come to the
conclusion that the low price of wheat
in the San Francisco market and the diff
ficultY of disposiug of it prevailing for
three months past, are attributable to the
middlemen, through whose hands their
crops pass OF their way to market. and
to the practice of mixing good and bad
wheat by the dealers, whereby the stan
dard of California grain is impaired. To
remedy the trouble they propose to or
ganize and ship their crops themselves,
without allowing them to pass through
the hands of middlemen, who,
they assert, make all the profits.
One plan is to have agencies to
take charge of all the wheat sent to the
ports of shipment, and send it to Liver
pool in chartered vessels on the farmers
account, holding it back when shipping
rates are high and prices low, and hand
ling the crop so as to secure the most
advantageous results for the farmer. 1t
was stated at a meeting of wheat growers
held at San Francisco last week, that
the Southern California Railroad Com
pany had proposed to ship wheat through
to Liverpool by way of Galveston at $15
a ton. This is 40 cents a bushel-a very
low tate for carrying grain one-fourth
the way round the world.

EDISON SCORES A PoINT.-Mayor
Grace, of New York, on Tuesday sent
to the Board of Aldermen a veto of the
resolution granting permission to the
Edison Electric Light Comnany to lay,
erect and construct wire in the streets
for Illuminating purposes, on the ground
that it failed to provide adequate COM
pensation for the franchise. Neverthe-
less it was passed by a vote of 10 to 2,
and Mr.. Edison is consequently consid-
erably elated. He proposes to proceed
vigorously in lighting several districts
already designated.

CHEAP ICE.-New Workers are re-
ioicing over the prospect of cheap ice
during the coming summer, and this
will inspire hopes OF the article being
cheap to the consumers in other cities as
well. Leading ice dealers in New York
think the prices TO private consumers
will not exceed 30 cents a hundred
pounds, against 20 cents and 81 last
year. 1t is known that the supply housed
on the Hudson and the eastern rivers is
LARGER than ever before.

Amable LeCompte, the man who was ar
rested several days ago for assaulting Mrs.
Marguritta Charpenter, an old woman e.
years of age, with an intent to ravish her per-
son, was arraigned before Judge Cody yester-
day afternoon for IN examination. The parties
are both French and could speak little Eng
lish The testimony was considered sufficient
to hold the man, and be was consequently
bound over in the sum of $500 to the next ses-
sion of the grand jury. At this juncture the
session of the court closed. The
Judge donned his seal skin and started
from the room. LeCompte did likewise, only
his was not sealskin. At the foot of the
stairs the judge turned and discovered the
prisoner at his heels, unaccompanied by an
officer.
''I think you had better return to the court
room; you are still prisoner" said the
judge.

Sara Bernhsrdt.

A strange story is current about Sarah Bern
hardt. It is said that. wishing to get all the
impressions that can contribute to the prog.
ress of dramatic art, she obtained permanent
card of admission to the hospitals in order to
study the agony of death A few nights be-
fore her departure on her European journey
she went to the Hotel-DIeu. he doctor IN
dictated the bed No IL, and Sarah Bernhardt
went and sat by the bedside of yonng
woman who was at the point of death.
The young woman had her eyes closed,
at the moment; suddenly she opened them,
and seeing Sarah, dressed in black, with her
pale face, expressive eyes, cadaveric cheek
bones, she seemed to be seized with terror,
and, stretching out her emaciated arms, as if
to push away the artist, she cried in heart
rending voice: "Ah! know you, terrible ap-
partition; you are the angel of death; you
came the other day to take away one of my
neighbors; but am too young, will not die;
BECOME, terrible spectre!' And while the
terrible emotion took away the girls last
breath, Sarah fell fainting at the foot of the
bed
