travelling expenses and improve rail-
road service; to find employment for
the unemployed; to secure beneficial

portant of all, to elevate the moral and
social standard of the travelling man.
1t yields a great influence in shaping
the destinies of our country. Through
it's influence the iniquitous "drummers'
license" has been expunged from the
statute books Of many states. To its
efforts is due the credit for having Sc
cured interchangeable mileage at re-
duced rates, throughout the North and

has nothing else, but lie is crippled who
has none of it. Small talk has bad
name, because it is often fippant or
silly or ceaseless, but the Youths
Companion justly observes that it
need not have any of these qualities
any more than silver coin need be
soiled or worn beneath it's value.
Thoughtfully and properly used, small
talk is an accomplishment-like sing
ing or playing the piano. 1t may be
on a lower plane than these, but it is
even more practical as an equipment
for life. How to acquire it? That is
another story, and a more difficult one;
but the warm heart and the willing
tongue and the clear mind can find
way.

brief but comprehensive comment OF,
-, -. -, :, , .s5 - Frenchman on
the automobile ac-
"""e epee" 'fa"' cident by which an
American millionaire and his wife lost
their lives. The significance of the re-
mark lies not merely in it's Justice as
applied to the present passion for fast
automobiles, but in it's applicability
to modern life in general. In England
and Germany and France, as well as in
the United States, railroads are strain
ing to reduce their train schedules by
a minute. Millions of dollars have
been spent in the effort to produce
trotting horse that could cover mile
inside of two minutes. When the feat
was accomplished the news was an
nounced in head lines large enough to
do justice to the fall of an empire. The
same craze for speed on the water has
seen the record for the transatlantic
voyage pass SO rapidly from one "ocean
greyh ound" to another that the queens
of the fleet of a few years ago are to-
day merely "scows" and ''coal barges."
Another phase of "the speed madness"
appears in the "quick lunch" rooms,
where crowds of business men gather
every noon, and gorge themselves
perched on high and uncomfortable
stools, like crows on a fence. The
morning paper is read by skimming
the head lines on the way to the Office.
The leading street car of three or four
which travel the same route is always
crowded, although in those immedi-
ately behind there may be plenty of
room. Both men and women dodge un-
der the gates at railway crossings and
dash across crowded streets in front
of a passing vehicle when the delay OF
+ a single second would enable them to
cross behind it in safety and aignihed
leisure. Does it pay? One would ike
to ask the man of 40, who has broken
down with nervous prostration, the
/ strong; man who began life with vital
ity enough to make the port of old age
under his own steam, laden with a
noble freight, but instead creeps in
lamely, a broken wreck, with all life's
best things jettisoned. He is the one
who should know.

THE trial of Peter Scott, register of
deeds on two charges, one for a mis-
demeanor in failing to conform to the
statutory procedure, and the other for
embezzlement will come up on Novem-
Der 10th. The matter was taken up
Monday and States Attorney Burr
said he was ready to try both cases.
The defendant by his attorney, Mr..
Goss, made a motion to. dismiss, which
was overuled. Then demurrer was
taken on the ground that the fees
which were not reported belonged to
Mr.. Scott. The court ruled that the
fees belonged to the county. Then
Mr.. Scott made special plea for
postponement Of the case for two
weeks. The reasons given for this
postponement sounded very fair, but
we believe the defense had political
reasons for the move. If they could
prove Scott innocent they would want
his trial to come off before election.
But on the other hand, if proven guilty,
it would hurt the whole ticket, so they
would rather have the postponement.
This leaves things in bad shape. If
Mr.. Scott is proven guilty he will be
disqualified and in case of his receiv-
ing majority Of the votes cast, the
board of county commissioners wo uld
have the appointing of his successor.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.
special Term Convened Yesterday Morning
Sealed VdeElct in case OF Reev's
va. southern-. Four other Eases
Against the Southern
Taken Up

The special term of the Court of
! Common Pleas ordered for Newberry
county convened in the court house yes
terday morning, Judge lzlar presiding.
The case of Thos. R. Reeves VS.. The
| Southern railway, suit for $1,000 dam
ages, was first taken up. The damage
! claimed was for injuries resulting from
a walk from Old Town to Newberry,
q distance of IS miles, forced by fail
ure of the Southern's night passenger
train to stop at Old Town. 1t appears
that On the Sd Of July, 1900, Reeves,
who was then working in the cotton
| mill, in company with several friends
went to Old Town or a hunting trip.
Desiring to return the next night, they
| haqged the train. The train failed to
stop and plaintiff was forced to walk.
For this walk, from these causes, he
demanded $1,000.
A sealed verdict was rendered last
night.
Four persons were with Reeves on
his trip and each separately entered
suit for a like amount, on the same
grounds. These four cases were punched
and taken up together yesterday after
noon and will be continued this morn
ing.
