last Thursday morning at II o'clock at
ms nome near Irby, in Laurens County.
= me deceased married o Miss Lark, Of
4aurens County, and removed from

An attempt was made to blow open
the postoiiice safe in the store of S. T..
Horton, tho pOstmaster at Belton, last
Thursday night. The handle of the
door was wrenched off and nitroglycc-
rlne inserted in the cavity From ap-
pearances the work was that of profess
siOnal safe blowers. who it is believed
were frightened off by the continuous
barking of a dog III the yard of w. X.
StrlnSer, whose residence is near tho
rear end of the storeroom. A gentle
man, who was sleeping in Mr.. Strin-
by the barking of the dog, got up and
went out, but, seeing nothing or no
body. called the dog and went back to
mis- room. There is no clue as to the
identity of tho burglars.
We are informed that the organiza-
ton OF a Land Development and Rap
Id Transit Company is being favora ably
considered by several leading business
men. Land development will be the
basis of the aims and purposes of the
movement,n9mely to advertise abroad,
investors from other sections of the
United States, who are inspired with
confidence in the industrial develop
ments in this section, and can be se-
cured, if the proper means are used.
The rapid transit feature will, on the
other hand, make it possible to practi-
cally carry out the object aimed at,
namely, converting vacant lots and ad-
Joining farms into beautiful, improved
homes. The movement, it seems.
should work here as we'll as it has in
other sections of our country.
