IT'S A HUSTLER.
The Fast Train on the Seaboard Air Line.

The fast schedule on the eastbound
passenger train on the Seaboard Air
Line went into effect last Sunday. The
train leaves Clinton at 2 % p. NJ, and
arrives at Columbia at Ais p. m. max
ing the run of IS miles in one hour and
fo:ty-six minutes, including six stops
Dover, Newbe7ry, Prosperity, Little
Mountain. Chaplin and Irmo. The
arrival at Newberry is 2.59 p. M, and
the distance between Clinton and
Newberry is virtually annihilated when
compared to the old schedule.
The first run from Clinton to New
berry on the new schedule was made
last Sunday in q minutes. The dis
tance is q miles. The train left Gin.
ton ten minutes behind time, and
stopped four minutes at Dover to reg
lister, and the speed therefore was a
mile every minute. That is hustling.
The run from Newberry to Col
umbia, 43 miles, with four stops, is
made in one hour and sixteen, min
utes. This is the fastest schedule ever
operated between these points, and is
sure to be appreciated by the public.
It is hinted by the managers OF the
Seaboard Air Line that this new move
may lead the way for a vestibuled
limited train between Charleston and
Atlanta.

Politics seems to be dead in this Sec

wise thing to do.

BURKE AUTOMATIC WASHING MA
CHINE.
A New Machine for Cleansing Clothes ls OR
ExhibItion-GoA And See It.

Mr.. W. F. Burke, of Quitnan, Ga,
has invented washing machine which
does away with scrubbing and beat
ing your clothes to pieces, and yet
| washes them white and clean without
labor. All you have to do is to put the
clothes in the machine with the water
and soap and keep up the fire and the
machine does the rest. It is q very
simple process. The machine is on
exhibition at the Mclaughlin building
next door to the Ice House. where Mr..
Burke will take pleasure in showing
you the process. Mr.. Burke impresses
US as being a straig ightforward, honest,
Georgia farmer, and has strong en-
dorsenents for reliability from his |,
neighoors in Georgia. He has as
sociated with him in this State, Mr..
w. R Smith of Chappells and Mr..
G.M.Anderson Of Ninety Six who have
given the machine trial in their own
families.
The Atlanta Journal has the follow
ing to say of the machine and Mr..
Burke:
1T does the work and no mistake about 1t,
the Burke Automatic Washing machine.
This machine, which looks IKE NE ss,a Dlg
and although simple in its construction, does
its work in a most perfect manner. In Its
operation OF cleaning clothes the ancient
principle Of forcing steam aad boiling kudS
through the texture, thus loosening the dirt,
is applied, but unlike the old method OF beat
ing and scrubbing, and tearing and button
breaking, this machine dissolves the dirt, and
and white. without work OF any nature, or
any rough and injurious handling OF the
clothes. No cranks TO turn or levers TO lit
The machine Is entirely automatic, and the
to rinse and dry. Simply keep up the nre
and the machine will do the rest.
"It is well known fact that clothes washed |
by the average laundry or washerwoman last
beating. scrubbin9 or rolling process could be
avoided. Mr.. W. P. Burke, Of Quitman, Ca,
he's solved the problem and by his recent In.
vention your clothes are allowed to live out
robbed Of half their existence by chemical
washing fluids, the scrub board and TIE
batting stick.
"Mr. Burke is Southwest Georgian, and
comes to Atlanta with many testimona! OF
character and reliability. He has associated
with him, in stock company, some OF our |
very best and most solid citizens for the
manufacture OF the machine and the proper |
will prove a blessing to people in every con- |
dition OF life, especially 80 to those who are
compelled to do their own washing. The
single item Of saving in the wear OF clothes IS
greater than the cost Of the machine, besides |
the work, time and fuel. The machine is |
heartily endorsed by the people OF this sec |
tlcn of the State who are using them every |
week, also by many OF the most prominent |
people Of the city, snch as the Governor, |
State House officers, bankers and business
men, who have seen It work"
It is we'll worth your time to 60
around and see the machine work.
