CANADA ATLANTICsS PRICE

Ottawa, Ont, Mar. To One mil.
lion dollars in cash is said to have
been paid over to the directors of the
Canada Atlantic Railway Co., by the
Webb Syndicate as guarantee of
good faith that the purchase Of that
road will be cOnSumated.
The first option given was to expire
Mar Is, but has been extended to
June 30, and the million dollars has
been paid over.
Recently the Canada Atlantic Direc-
tors decided to issue bonds to the ex.
tent of sI1, 100000 and that figure is
believed to fairly represent the price
to be paid by the Webb syndicate for
the railroad.

the hotel force, all of whom were en-.

accompanied him. The employment
of white help exclusively is de-
oided innovation in the South, ex-
cept in The case of the winter tour

with great interest by all commercial

Twins al the Age OF Fifty Years.

The happiest man in Anderson
county at the present writing is Mr..
w. w. Moore, well known citizen
OF the Piedmont section. Mr.. Moore
was married in 1876, just 26 years
ago. He and his wife have lived
happily together ever since, but no
children had ever come to bless their
home. Mr.. Moore is on the shady
side OF the half century mark and
his wife is in her fiftieth year. Mr..
Moore had about made up his mind
that the fates would be unkind TO
him and that he would remain child.

no turning and last Thursday night
Mrs. Moore presented her husband
with twins, boy and girl. Both
the mother and little ones are doing
nicely and Mr.. Moore himself ia in
good shape. These facts are given
by people of that community and
Mr.. Moore himself was in the oity
yesterday. He is a brother-in.l law
OF Mr.. j. f. Clardy. Mr.. Moore is
naturally overjoyed on account of
his great good fortune. "Anderson
people are going ahead building cot
ton mills and trolley lines," he said
while here yesterday, "but the Pied
mont section of this county is not to
be sneezed at. l wouldn't swap nv

New Union Station In atlanta.

Advices from Atlanta, Ga, report
that plans are under way to build a
new union passenger station at the
intersection of Mitchell street and
Madison avenue, on ground owned
by the Central of Georgia and the
Southern railways. Mr.. II. M.
Steele, Chief Engineer of the Cen
tral Of Georgia, is to make the pre-
limlnary survey, assisted by the en-.
gincers of other railroads interested
The proposed depot will have q
train shed $50 feet long by $50 feet
wide, with ten tracks, and it will be
open at each end for trains to arrive
or depart in either direction. The
depot building, 200x400 feet, is to be
five or more stories in height, and
contain the waiting rooms, ticket
Offices, etc, besides offices for rail.
road officials.
The Atlanta Union Station Com.
pany is to be formed by the various
railroads entering Atlanta for the
purpose of constructing the new ter.
minal. 1t is expected that work
will begin about February 1, and that
the new station will be completed
within fifteen months thereafter.

Equal to a Bull Fight.

AT the recent State Fair in Colum-
bia one of the principal attractions
was football game between the
Clemson College and the South Ca
rolina College teams. The price
OF seat to witness the game was
fifty cents. After the game had
gone on for some time young lady
on the stand asked her uncle, an
elderly gentleman, if he was ready
to 60, and he said he was not quite
ready. She then said if he was in
terested she would wait on him. He
rejoined that it would save him a
trip to Cuba or Mexico to see bull
tight. The game was enough like it
to save the time and expense of the
trip.-Abbeville Medium.

Delinquents Brought to Time.

A paper in Golden, Colorado,
raked in many delinquents on the
ground of this eloquent appeal {:
"You may approximate the stars in
nail keg, hang the ocean on a
grapevine to dry, wipe the nose of a
cyclone with towel, cut off the tail
end of a tornado for keepsake, put
the sky in the ground to soak, un-
buckle the bellyband of eternity and
open up the sun and moon as a
health resort, but never be deluded
with the idea that you can escape
the other side of purgatory if you
don't pay for your paper"

MODERN HOTEL NEEDED.

antiquated building that ought to be
replaced by modern hotel.
The citiz ms, judge from remarks
made by some, are becoming alive to
the great advantages to accrue to
the town from a new and modern
hotel, managed as well as the present
one is, and will not delay much
longer in the matter of securing it,.
The town owes IL to herself to have
a hotel that will be a standing adver-
tisement, not alone by its excellence
as regards the table, but as to out
ward appearance and modern con-
veniences as we'll. Men with large
and generous hearts are often mis-
judged on account of a rough aud
unpublished appearance.
Hotels and men are quite closely
associated, and, while those ac-
quainted with the qualities of the
"heart" of the Walhalla Hotel can
easily overlook the rough appear
ance of the building, there is moth
ing in its outward aspect to attract
the stranger. In this connection it
may be of interest to note that a
