Domestics From India May solve
Problem For Londoners.
The domestic servant problem in
London grows worse and worse, says
the New York Herald. 1t looks as If
in the near future suburbia would be
without what is called general serv-
ants. The rapid increase Of tea rooms
and light refreshment rooms in Lon
don, with good wages comparatively
short hours and nights off, is attract
ing girls who on leaving school hither-
to turned to domestic service.
The trouble is getting SO serious that
an aged old Anglo-Indian living in
Clapham called d private meeting re-
Gently to discuss the trouble. India, he
pointed out had more servants of the
class in England called domestic than
a European community could give en-
ployment to. They We're working for
much smaller wages than that given in
England. Why not offer inducements
to Indian servants to come to Londonq
The suggestion was taken up hearth
~, and committee was formed to 20
into the matter, SO that the near FIJI
tiire may see red puggreed surtees and
mahrattas and white turbaned deccan-
wallas taking the places Of the fast
disappearing, smart looking. white
capped and aproned female domesties.
Even clever Goanese cooks Of Portu-
guese India may be brought to Lon
don, because cooks for the same rea-
son as ordinary domestics, are growing
scarce.

REDMOND IS SHOTIN

A Tragedy Near Friendship

Near Friendship, ten miles west of
Americas, yesterday afternoon, Rob

Redmond with fatal effect, the result
of some business misunderst anding
b3tween the two. MIR. Battle is a
prominent farmer of Schley, living
just over the Sumter county line. Mr.
Redmond is tenant or employe on
the Battle plantation. Full details of
the tragedy could not be secured,
there being no telephone communi

inc to reports. brought here, however,
the trouble was in regard to
feeding stock on the plantation. 1t

or four times aud would die of the
desperate wounds inflicted, if he is not
dead already. Mr.. Battle is well

to that effect can be consummated.
At present the current is on at night
only, and this applies only to street

is understood that the electric light
company here is going to interview the
business men of the city tomorrow to
the end of keeping the electric current
on continuously, day and night, and
this will, in all probability, be done at
an early date. This would prove of
great advantage to the company as
we'll as to consumers, as more incan-
descent lights would be used in stores
and homes on an call night" basis,
while power could be supplied to nu-
merous small manufactures now
operated by gas or water power. New
and costly machinery is being installed
at the electric plant here, and if suffi-
clent patronage can be secured the
company will, no doubt, put on the
night and day current in Americas
very shortly.

MORE BUILDINGS ARE ASSURED
If jackson Street is Soon Graded as
Proposed.

If jackson Street is Soon Graded as
Proposed.
The grading and cur bling of Jackson
street means more than the mere i'm
provement of that thoroughfare, though
this alone would enhance values of
realty to the extent of thousands of
dollars. If the streets thus improved,
and put in such condition as to admit
of the hauling of heavy loads of freight
oyer it, two or three storage warehouses
will be built in the vicinity of the Sea-
board freight depot. Other buildings
are contemplated as well, and alto
gether the improvement of this street
will benefit the city to very great ex-
tent. The estimated cost of the work
to the city is about 81, 700. The gravel
required will cost nothing, the railroad
company having agreed to contribute
that material. as it's property will be
considerably enhanced by the grading
of the street. The city has accepted
the proposition made and the matter is
now up to the railroad company for
consideration.
