A Way To Ventilate a Car.

Bad news travels fast, according
to the proverb. but good news will
sometimes get home over long road
For instance, here is word by wire
from Washington that Brooklyn
man has found out how to ventilate
a street car.
This problem of airing the interior
of public vehicles shelves itself III sum-
1ner, the season of open doors and
windows. In the winter it veNes
sorely the soul of every passenger
who puts a proper live-saving value
on his breathing apparatus.
DR.. Walker proceeds, it appears
from the report, by the notably log
ica1 process of making holes in the
car. These apertures do not look
backward, like elevated train ventila-
ton slides, expecting fresh air to
pursue and catch up with them, but
they open from the sash deck" to-
ward the roof. Outside the car, be-
tween the holes, a shingles inter-
ference throws the fresh air into the
first opening, while circulation forces
the impure air out at the second.
This is simple scheme Washing
ton says it works. May not other
cities have breathing demonstration
of the plan in the winter that is COM
ing.

SIMPLY WONDERFUL.
Fine Impression Created by Col.
George Johnstone in Conway.

Col. George Johnstone has made
big impression in Conway, where he
was employed by the defense in the
case of the state against S. F. Bourne
town marshall. for killing Walter E.
Porter. The News & Courier gives
the following report of the affair:
The trial of S. F. Bourne, town
marshall. for the killing of Walter E.
Porter, is nearing its end. All the
witnesses for the defence have been
examined and the lawyers are now
making their speeches. During the
week there has been legal sparring
between the solicitor and Col. Geo.
Johnstone counsel for the defence,
in which Col. Johnstone's great pow
ers were seen to their full advan:
tage. The impression he has made
here is simply wonderful: everybody
is talking about it and about him.
One astute countryman said yester-
day that Munroe Johnson had hook
ed on to the biggest load of freight
he ever tried to pull. Without in
tending to disparage fine lawyer
and an able officer, it is not going
too far to say that the solicitor has
had his hands full this time Con-
gresham Scarborough has taken a
hand in the game also. and as Mr..
Scarborough has a well-deserved
reputation as a lawyer and speaker,
there has been a most notable legal
battle from start to finish, and the
court house has been overtaxed
every hour since the case fairly be-
gan. Everybody wishes to hear and
see more of George Johnstone. Mr..
H. H. Woodward and Col. c. F.
Quattlebaum are also consulting at
torneys in this case, or whatever the
legal gentry term it.

CANADIAN IMMIGRATION
Possibility That a Colony Will Set
tie in Newberry County.

Some days ago there were three
French Canadians in the county.
Messrs Lussier. Caron. and Provost,
who were investigating land condi-
tions in and around Newberry with a
view to bringing into this section Of
the country large colony for perma-
nent settlement They were very
much pleased with conditions in gen.
raj, but found considerable fault with
the poor roads in some places, and
being accustomed to the fiat land Of
their own country and Of the west
they did not altogether like the roll
ing and swelling which is the charac-
teristic Typographical feature in this
section of the south. One of the party
was particularly impressed with a
certain unusually bad strip of hilly
road and remarked with no little per-
finance, ''If ever We get re wagon
down ze hill how will We get her up
again?"
They were so pleased. however, in
other respects that they are giving
the matter the most serious consider
alton.
1t is their intention, if they decide
upon this as the most favorable To-
caiity, to bring eighteen or twenty
families into the county and to divide
large tract of land into that mum Der
of individual farms. They desire to
raise Irish potatoes, corn, other
grain of all kinds, hay, and similar
products which our farmers sacrifice
annually upon the altar of King Cot
ton. Thus they would supply a need
ed want and in no way interfere with
our own farmers.
Mess. Lussier, Caron and Provost
have already had some experience in
the matter of colonization, Mr.. Lus-
sier having located several families
at SummervilIe this state, Mr.. Caron
having lived for years in Minnesota,
and Mr.. Provost having derived con-
siderable experience in New England
1t is an undisputed fact that class
of people such as these gentlemen
reDresent IS 4 most desirable addition
to any locality. They are noted for
thriftiness and honesty. and are the
most quiet and law abiding people on
the face of the globe Hundreds Of
just such colonies have settled in the
western states and the wonderful rec
ords for prosperity that some of these
commonwealth hold are largely due
to the steady. public-spirited enter
prise of Canadian immigration.
