Young Molloy, whose strange case was de-
scribed in The STAR yesterday, seems to be re-
gaining his lost faculties. Yesterday as he en-
tered the dining room he glanced at the clock
and exclaimed: Ten o." He was unable to
get any further. His sister took a piece of
paper and wrote: Tell me what you want"
After reading what she had written the young
man screwed up his face and after u mighty
effort said: Later That was all he said
during the day. Counsel for Robert OToole,
one OF tne four young men arrested for assault
ing Molloy. waived examination at the Tombs
police court and Justice TaintOr held O'Toole
in 81 900 bail for trial

A MAMMOTH DEPOT.
New York to Have the Largest Structure in
the World.
A special from New York saws:

A special from New York says:
The proposed new union depot Of the New
York and New Jersey Bridge Company, into
which it is proposed to run all the railroads
now having depots in Jersey City, will be a
mammoth structure. 1t will extend over 400
feet along Broadway, between 37th and 18th
streets, and be 1900 feet long, extending to
sth avenue. The plans are for a depot similar
to the st. Pancreas station of the Midland rail-
way in London. There will be room for twenty
tracks for passenger traffic. and if all the New
Jersey railroads use the new depot it is esti-
mated that a passenger train will arrive and de-
part every two minutes in each twenty -four
hours.
There are 40 passenger trains daily out of
Jersey City, and last year 800, 600 passengers
crossed the North river to take trains. Secre-
Rotary Swan Of the bridge company said yester-
day that the depot would be OF stone and steel,
and that the upper floors would be used for
railroad Offices. The construction Of the depot.
he said, will not necessitate the closing of It'll
avenue nor of 3Sth street.
AN IMMENSE BRIDGE.
The bridge will be $50 feet above high-water
mark. but the viaduct running therefrom will
be only sixty-fve feet above high-water mark
at the depot and the tracks of the depot will be
only twelve feet above the level OF Broadway.
There will be an arch or other passageway
through the building for 3Sth street, while the
station will be at q sufficient height over eth
avenue, owing to the fall in the ground, to offer
no obstruction to traffic in that thuroughsare.
In the basement will be tracks foe mail and
express cars. where wagons can be loeded and
unloaded. The basement will be reached by
tracks gently declining for considerable dis
lance on the viaduct. Much remains to be
done, such as the purchase and condemnation
of the necessary property, before work can be
commenced on the depot, but Mr.. Swan as
sured me that within three months work on the
bridge will begin.
The New York approach to the bridge is to
be between 10th and list streets, and trains will
come down over viaduct between 18th and
18th avenues through the center of the block.
The $500 900 required by the New York act, "
said Mr.. Swan, has all been paid into the
treasury of the New York company. On July
% the 81 600, 900 required under the charter
will have been paid into the New Jersey COM
pany. We will then consolidate the two COM
panies. The New York company is capitalized
at SO. 0O0,0 900 and the New Jersey company at
IS, 100000"
The cost OF the bridge, according to Mr..
Swan, will not exceed 81, 600 600 while the ap-
proaches and the depot will use up the remain
ing $4,000, 900 Of the capital stock.
The viaducts are not to be of solid masonry,
but Of steel and stone. Stone will be probably
used for flooring the tracks.

HOW HODGES FAILED.

Hodges on the other hand failed to develop
the strength that he was expected to do from
the very first He has had little or no follow
ing in the counties, the independent democrats
are openly hostile to him and there has never
been any real hope that he could even con troll
the city delegation While his eminent qualifi-
cations for the Office are everywhere conceded,
he has never therefore been-available as a CAM
didate-
The hope Of Jones and his friends is largely
in any possible complication that may arise be-
fore or when the convention meets and in the
remote possibility Of his coming TO the conven-
uon with the twenty-six votes of the counties
In the sixth congressional district II be could
do this be would be something more than pos
sibility, but his friends know that Brown is
stronger than he in several Of those counties
and the second choice Of Montgomery county
Besides, II the independent democrats in Mont
gomery, led by State Senator Wootton and
Philip ID. Laird, should make fight they are
pretty sure to carry the county. This will be

The Sewberry Bank and the Comptroller
General.

The Newberry Bank and the Comptroller
General.
It will be remembered that the
County Board of Equalization accepted
the returns of the stock Of the Bank of
Newberry at par. The president of
the bank, Mr.. r. L. Mclaughlin, who
appeared before the board, stated that
the par value Of the stock was 500 a
share, but that it would probably sell
for $3.50, and yet with the facts in their
position the board decided that it
would be right and equitable to accept
the returns at 500.
Now the Comptroller General writes
a letter to the Auditor advising him
that section 229 of the Statutes does not
prevent him from following the provis-
ions of section 23o. And if the Bank
of Newberry returned its shares at 500
and the auditor has reasons Ito suspect
or know" that they are worth Sl6O, he
must enter them on his tax duplicate
at $780, irrespective of what the board
did.
Section 229 SAYS that auditors have
right to increase returns as made ny
individuals or as left by boards o(equal-
station. Section 239 has reference to
where there are frauds in returns.
The auditor, we presume, will follow
the instructions Of the Comptroller
General.
We cannot see the reason or the JUS
tice of requiring one class of taxpayers
to return their property at its full mar
! ket value when it is potent to every
one, who will take the pains to inquire,
that all other property, including real
estate, is not returned at more than half
or two-thirds of i's real value. And
what is the use of boards Of equaliza-
ton if their action is to be disregarded?
The main thing to work for is an
equalization of valuation; then the bur.
dens Of taxation bear equally on all
persons in proportion to their property,
and it matters not whether it is valued
high or low. If high, the rate will be
decreased ; if low, it will be increased
but the amount paid for taves will be
the same in either case.

NOTES FROM EXCELSIOR.

Our school gave vacation on Friday
evening last.
Mrs. r. L. Wheeler has been i'll, but
is improving again.
Garden vegetation is beginning to
have better appearance.
Mr.. Hanon kibler informs us that
he shot and killed a wild turkey weigh
ing nine pounds near his residence a
few days ago.
Mr.. James D. Kinard, of Newberry
College, spent Saturday and Sunday at
home.
Good seasons OF rain, and cotton
coming to a stand. Our farmers will
about finish planting this week. The
price of the staple remains low and the
farmers are putting in another crop
with poor encouragement Of reaping
much benefit next fall. How can the
farmers with hired labor raise cotton at
I and cents per pound and keep out
of debt? The farmers will have to make
a change, and the sooner the better.
Early planting of corn has come to a
stand and looking well. The grain crops
in this section continues to look -four
ishing.
The "Easter Eggs" published in The
Herald and News, has been read and
enjoyed by number of our people. 1t
seems that the young folks of this day
and time have adopted quite different
way of courting to that Of the Dutch
Fork in former days. However, We
believe pleasant courtship is enjoy
able let it be ''Bekky" or "Sallie." But
there should only be two persons pre-
sent at such entertainments in order to
make the meetings a success is the
opinion Of SIGMA.

OI.R PROSPERITY LETTER

Drs. Julian and Wychc are opening
Il stock Of new drugs in the brick store
recently vacated by Smith X Wcarn.
Rev. Mr.. Myers, recently from Ten
neSsee preached two very interesting
and edifying sermons in the 4. II. p.
church last Sunday. This congrega-
ton is still without a regular pastor.
Rev. T. O. keister is suffering from a
severe hoarseneSs, in consequence of
which he will not have service to-
night as usual. His little daughter
Mary ns been quite i'll. but is now
better
The rains of last week were exceed
ingiy opportuue and did all incalcuIa-
ble amount OF good. Wheat and oats
are booming. Cotton is coming up
slowly-uights too cool since the rain.
II corn at $I.10 bushel, flour at
500 barrel. and hams at j. cents "a
pound, with cotton at !! cents, and
1910, 900 bales to be carried to the next
crop, is not enough TO teach the plant
ers in the cotton States Il practical les
son, | fear they cannot be taught one.
\ united effort on the part Of the aiii-
ance in the cotton States can easily
remedy this evil. They can as easily,
and even more easily combat success
fully this evil than they did the jute
trust. All the farmer representatives,
farmer senators, farmer governors,
farmer congressman, and farmer presi-
dents if you please, with unlimited free
coinage of silver, and suh-treasury
schemes will never remedy this grow
ing evil, as long as cotton is planted to
the exclusion of grain crops for home
consumptiou. Just as long as the
planters Of the cotton States persist
in planting all cotton, and depending
on the cotton crop entirely for food
and raiment, just SO long will this state
Of things exist. No amount of money
or Of Legislation can or will remedy
this evil. The remedy must come
through and by the alliance. 1t seems
to me simple and easy. 1t is this, for
example, say plant (all over the cotton
States) one-third less cotton than usual,
and that one-third plant in the various
grains as best adapted to the various
grades Of land. If the Alliance in the
South will adopt some such plan as in
dicated, they will not only bring
blessing upon themselves as an orLer
and as individuals, but will bring a
blessing on our whole sunny South.
Besides this. it is, as understand it, in
their pure legitimate line Of duty as a
farmers organization, and is destined
to pay much better to everybody than
fighting little merchants in little towns,
and dabbling in politics and making
legislators and governors. and congress
men, which does not and cannot posi-
bly, help the cause, Let reforms begin
on the farms in the South, and these
ether affairs will adjust themselves,
and then We'll all be happy and serene.
There are spasmodic exceptions, but as
a rule the price of cotton, or any other
article or commodity is regulated by
the supply and the demand. This is a
truth that sub-treasury bills and un-
limited money cannot change.

MAIL FACILITIES SECURED.
Arrangements tor the Operation of the
c., y. & L. Road.

The Seaboard Air Line connection
with Columbia will be made on the
first of May, when the c., y. & L. road
will begin operations and handle regu-
lar trains on the route, forming direct
Northern and Southern connections
with the Georgia, Carolina and North
ern road at Clinton. 1t was positively
ascertained yesterday that mails are to
be put on all the trains on the road,
with through pouches for North and
South. Congressman George John
stone recently went to Washington,
and it..was through his agency that the
Second Assistant Postmaster General
Bell came down last week and went
over the entire road, making an eX-
animation as to whether the line war
ranted the putting on of mails or not
He has now announced his decision to
give the road the mail service at once
The running Of regular trains making
all connections will be begun on Sun.
day next. The schedule is being ar
ranged by the South Carolina Railway
authorities, who will continue to opera
ate the road but has not yet been an
