ing is four stories high, $50 by 277
feet in size, and will have 25,O0O spin
dies, together with 800 looms, from

increase it's equipment. The corpora
tion. owning this mill is capitalized at
$5OO,OOO, and N. B. Dial, of Laurens,

Two ATTEMPTS AT WRECKING
Train From Grcenville Knocks OBJ
struction From the Track and The
Next Train Finds it Replaced.

Columbia, Special.-Two dastardly
attempts 10 wreck passanegr trains
No. IL and No. Is on the Columbia
branch of the Southern were made
Sunday morning by unknown persons
about two miles north Of Honea Path.
Neither of the attmepts was success
full.
Train No. Is which leaves Columbia
at o'clock in the morning, struck
piece of iron known i'll railroad par
lance as a bumper knuckle, Which had
been placed on the rail, and knocked
the iron from the track. No damage
~as done and the train proceeded to
belton, where trains II and Is meet.
The engineer of the train from Green
vile was told Of what had happened
and cautioned to look out for the OBJ
struction. He accordingly slowed his
train down when he approached the
spot where the obstruction had been
dashed aside by the first train and
found that it had been, replaced by the
would-be wreckers. The train was
brought to standstill and the knuck-
lie picked up and brought to Columbia.
No one was seen in the vicinity by
the crew of either train and so far
as could be learned no clue has been
found or no motive discovered that
will lead to fixing the crime upon the
guilty persons. 1t was stated by one
who came to Columbia on the train
that Capt. G. r. Willis who is the
agent of the Southern at Williamston
was at Honea Path and went, accom-
panied by several others to the place
to search for evidence and if possible
to locate the person who placed the
iron on the track.

For instance, if you want 10 know whether a politician is a repuo- lican or democrat you would have very tough job on hand; if you wanted to know what quality soap we give bars with a pound of our warranted good Soc tea, you wouldn't eat 1t; you can simply buy a pound of tea ana sive 1t a fair trial-that's the time you'd get the proof Then again. if you want to know what the Household Washing Fluid is. we will on next Sat urday night give each purchaser a sam pie bottle, just enough to do one DIE washing. then you will see for your self. It's the woman's friend, The regular price is 15c per large bottle, but it's worth S5. Of course if you want to know what quality tea. cof1ee and butter we sell, you can ask your neighbor, or better still, call and make a purchase and see for yourself.

10 Know ios What MeCsrdy
b Responsible

New York, Oct. 1.-THE legislative
committee investigating the insurance
business resumed its sessions today.
Richard A. McCurdy, president Of the
Mutual Life. was the first witness.
During the examination, Mr.. Hughes
announced that the committee had re.
ceived q large number OF letters rela-
tive to dividends on policies OF the
Mutual Life. Some Of them he read.
One writer said ON his policy he re-
ceived $55.76. This was cut by de-
grees until In 1904 he received $3.
McCurdy said the committee had the
wrong witness. II was the actuary
who looked after the dividends, ana
that he had no information on the
matter. McCurdy complained Of the
general character Of the investigation.
He had understood 1t not the inten.
tion to make 1t an inquisitiOn. Hughes
replied 1t was indeed an inQuisitior.
I'VE will have occasion to call your
actuary.' said Hughes, 'but want 10
know what you know about the COM
pany. You have salary of $1S0.0Ct.
! want to learn for what you are re-
sponsible.'
You are trying to prove me q
fool" the witness retOrted.
Without commenting On that which
requires no comment, let me
ask you to tell US to the
best Of your ability some Of the
l'ues en- which the company Is t.n-
Quoted" said Hughes. McCurdy in
sisted that the actuary must answer
the questions on dividends and how
they we're calculated.
Although pressed by Hughes, Nc
Curdy repeatedly refused TO answer
questions along this line.
McCurdy said he thought the IN.
vestigation should be executive. He
said the witnesses replies were dis
torted and the witnesses were made
to look like criminals. Continuing the
examination, Hughes brought out the
statement that the salaries had been
slightly reduced In the reforms Of the
clerical force and general agencies.
II have not reduced the salaries Of
the executive officers, they may
never be cut. They are none too tat
anyway" said McCurdy.
