available power due to this head is
between 5000 and 10, 900 horsepower.
The present development will consist
of a stone dam, situate at the lower
end of the shoal, to be q feet in
height, which will give head of 32
feet op the wheels, and produce about
5000 gross horsepower. This con-
struction vii! obviate the necessity of
a canal, and will readily permit the en-
largement of the plant: SO that the whole
power in the river can be cheaply
developed, when the demand for power
shall make it advisable. AS stated
above the work on this development is
now being pushed to completion. The
contractors, Messrs. Withcrs & Hard
away, of Birmingham, Ala, have at
present force of 200 men and the
necessary engines, steam drills and
derricks at work and will no doubt
complete their contract by the 1st of
June, 1897, the time set in their
agreement. The Electrical Gcnerat-
ing apparatus is being built by the

pany, of PittsGcld. Mass, and will
consist of two 800 Kilinatt tw"-pha$c
Generators and the necessary switch
board apparatus and accessories. The
current will leave the machines ut Il
pressure of 10000 volts, and after
passing through the switch board, will
be transmitted to the city, distance
of 10 miles, over line consisting of
eight No - bare copper wires.
Reaching the city. it will be carried
into the Company present station,
and there transformed from 10000
volts to 1000 volts, and thence dis
tributed throughout the city and to the
Cation Mill.
The wheel plant will consist of four
pairs Of 30-inch Mccormick Turbine
Wheels, made by S. Morgan Smith, of
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1896-09-30

into the power house and delivered to
the wheels. These latter rest upon
the floor of the power house, and after
passing the wheels the water is carried
by draft tubes to the tail race. If in
future the full power Of the river is
developed, all that will be necessary
will be to raise the height of the dam
to its limit, and nothing now built
need be disturbed or changed.
The officers of the Company are
DR.. s. VI. Orr. President; W. j.

Anderson County leads the State,
and probably the South, in good,
smooth country roads and in the new
system of road making. In every d.
rection from Anderson. run broad,
smooth roads to the limits of the
county, which are SO thoroughly grad

of the noted drive-ways of the North
and East. And these roads are play
ing very important part in increas-
ing the volume of business in the city
of Anderson. TO the citizens of An
derson County it is now matter of

surprise that our common roads have
been for so many years and so univer-
sally neglected, amidst so much pro-
gress and prosperity in every other
direction. 1t is indeed remarkable.
Trade relations, both interstate and
foreign, have brought magnificent and
thoroughly equipped railroads, which
span the country in every direction,
and connect US with almost every mar
ket of the world, but the common
roads over which every pound of pro-
duce must be hauled to feed the great
thoroughfares of commerce and travel

necessary turbines to drive them.

Boards. The Courts are required to
sentence all ablebodied male convicts,
whose terms are not over two years. to

county in which conviction is had.
These convicts are organized into a

found to be satisfactory as a source OF
