GREAT DAM
Greenville News.

OF Pelzer, Augustine 7. Smythe, of
Charleston. James P. Gossett, Of Will
liamston, and r. A. Lewis, j. T. Rice
and w. K. Stringer, of Bolton. It is
due, however, to the efforts of Capt.
Ellison a. Smyth that the plans
came within the range of possibility.
For years he has had his eyes on the
Holiday shoals, but it was net until
recently that he was able to secure
the lands, many of the owners de.
clining to sell. He realized what the
future had in store, and being famil-
lar with the work, he laid the foun-
dations for the company and the plant
long before the deeds had been given
into his possession. Capt. Smyth
had the benefit of his long experience
at Pelzer, and in planning the dam he
has made it more substantial and
more valuable than those which span
the river nearer the mountain side.
Joseph E. Shrine, of Greenville is
the engineer in charge of the construc.
tlon and there is none better in the
South. The J. F. Gallivau Company
did the work at Portman Shoals, and
these builders were employed because
they are experts with whose former
contracts absolutely no fault could be
found. While the actual expense has
been at minimum, there was no de-
size to seek shoddy work or material.
The electrical outfit was supplied by
the General Electric Company, and
the Holyoke Machine Company, of
Holyoke, Mass, provided the water
wheels and kindred equipment. Three
hundred tons of machinery will be
hauled from the Southern Railway
near Bolton to the power house, which
will be gigantic task of itself.
Since the construction of the dam
began the company has moved along
under ideal weather conditions, and
the low depth of the water in the
river has been another consideration.
Later in the winter, however, it is
possible that the work may be delay
ed, but fine start has already been
made. The question of the shortage
In the labor supply has given the
management some concern. AS stated
above, three hundred men are employ
ed and there is work for two hundred
more, at good wages, if they will onlv
apply. Some time ago a number of
expert laborers and masons were
brought from New York and they are
still on the pay roll, doing good SER
vice and drawing good pay.
The value of Ware Shoals az a now
er plant will be increased O,eOO by
the building of this Bolton dam at
Holidays bridge. When the river is
low, as it has been during the past
summer and fall, the company will
have to wait for the surplus water
from Piedmont and Pelzer, but the
delay will be of shorter duration when
it starts from Holidays bridge. And
that will prevent any loss of time
after President Dial's mill is in ouer.

VIM, LEVERS IS
IN WASHINGTON

Mr.. William Levers, the good-looking
young leading man in support of Ed
win Arden at the Columbia, was born
in Honolulu. He came to America in
1884 with his parents and his uncle, H.
A. P. Carter, who was sent as minister
plenipotentiary from Hawaii to the
United States, and was here in Wash
ington for six years. His cousin is the
present Gov. Carter of Hawaii, who re-
ceived his appointment from President
Roosevelt.
Mr.. Levers was educated in Boston,
and he became interested in the stage
when very young. His father had Sc
rious objections to a stage career for
his son, having mapped out a business
life for him. The young man returned
to Honolulu and made an attempt to
carry out his fathers wishes by going
into business, but his heart was not in
his work, so he finally gained his
fathers consent and returned to the
United States, securing an engagement
with Charles Frohman, making his first
appearance on the professional stage
in Lincoln, Neb., in 1892, in "Gloriana."
Many of the members of that company
have since become famous, among
whom were Henrietta Crosman, May
Robson, the late E. j. Henley, Fred
Bond, Thomas A. Wise and Edwin
Stevens. The following season Mr..
Frohman made him a member of the
company known as Frohman's Come
dams. William H. Crane, having seen
his work, engaged him to play the part
of Fenton in his production of THE
Merry Wives of Windsor" After this
he became a little discouraged, and left
the stage to take up medicine, putting
in two years at the study. His health
began to fail, and so he returned to
his home in Honolulu to recuperate.
While there he met Daniel Frawley,
who was in Hawaii with his company.
He offered Mr.. Levers an engagement,
which was too tempting to be resisted,
and he accepted, going to San Fran
cisco. where he appeared with this ia
nous company.
Several years ago, while a member of
Annie Russells company in Miss
Hobbs" Mr.. Levers, in looking through

Caves of Kauai.

The interesting account of the caves
of Haena in the last Garden Island
brought a subject to the public atten-
ton which has been too little noticed.
These caves are indeed wonderful and
open up at the seabase of a gigantic
mountain. The ocean at one time roar
ed through their depths and the only
mode of access was by diving through
the water. Once it was probably an
aquatic feat among Hawaiian swim
mers to dive down and come up III
their caverns. The mountain scenery
of Haena and Wainiha is next in grail
eur only to the scenery of Hanalei,
and the trip on horseback from Hama
lei to these caves and other points Of
beauty in the Wainiha mountains is
one of the prettiest rides on the whole
island.-Garden Island.

HOW TO GAIN FLESH

The life of food is the fat
within 1.-THE more fat the
more real benefit from the
food; that is why cod liver
oil is a powerful builder of
flesh.
SCOTS Emulsion of pure
cod liver oil solves the prob
lem of how to take cod liver
oil. That is one reason why
doctors have been prescrib-
ing SCOTS Emulsion for all
wasting diseases, coughs, colds
and bronchitis for almost
thirty years.
One of the inducements
offered in order to substitute
something else for SCOTS
Emulsion is the matter of
cost. You save a few cents
at the expense of your health.
SCOTS Emulsion costs more
because it does more and does
it better than the substitutes.

suit he had worn as the bell boy in
''Gloriana." Wishing to see how much
he had grown since that time he tried
the suit on and went down stairs to
show it to some friends. While in the
hall the door bell rang, so for lark he
opened the door. The caller happened
to be May Irwin, who took Mr.. Levers
for real Buttons, and handed him
her card to give it to the lady of the

the joke to the end, and many were the
laughs at Miss Twins expense.-Wash-

are vital to those making them and every

Following is the outline of business
presented in writing to the Board Of

the opening of the weekly meeting yes
terday afternoon, with the action taken
upon the several items inserted:
CONTRACTS FOR SUPPLIES.
"The tenders for supplies for the period
of six months, from July to December
Al, 1904, were opened before witnesses,
Z. L. Lewis and H. E. Mcintyre, on
the advertised date and are herewith
presented, for your decision, in a tabu-
lated form, the bids on each article that
the time of the members of the Board
may not be imposed upon"
Tenders were read by the secretary
and contracts awarded to the lowest bid
ders as a rule, although decisions were
reserved in some cases pending inquir-
les One of the questions was whether
or not c. K. Al, president of the City
Mill Co., was citizen, as that corpor-
alton put in number of bids.

determination of each case by the mi
croscope. Without such determination
there would remain the possibility of a
doubt With the efforts of DR.. Cooper
and Governor Carter to secure the high
est possible scientific skill in the study
of the disease we should require positive
proof OF all claims and statements sub

The presidents letter was read and
approved.
FOOD INSPECTION.

careful attention to the exceptions taken
to his report. The sardines in question
were destroyed with consent of the own

Affairs Of the Railroads.

Railroad building in the United Stat
during the first six months of 1904 shows
a falling off in comparison with the con-
responding periods of 1902 and 1908.
Increased operating expenses and de-
creased traffic, resulting in smaller net
earnings, together with the continued
stringency in the money market, supply
the explanation of the decline in con-
struction. Operating expenses were ma
terially increased during the first quarter
by the severity of the winter, and spring
found many of the railways borrowing
money for present necessities and con-
strained to retrenchment, both in cur
rent expenses and in their projects for
immediate future Many plans for i'm
provement and extensions proposed by
some of the great railway systems conse-
quently were suspended and still are held
in allegiance. From official reports re-
eeived by the Railway Age, it appears
that ,937, miles of track was completed
during the first six months of this year
on 1879 lines in 33 States and Territories.
In the first six months OF last year 2, 22l
miles of track were laid, while for the
entire year of 1903 it amounted to 5,7S6
miles
