Rails Being Laid.

The R. R. Commission, which
some weeks ago made thorough
Inspection of the Southcrn's lines
between Columbia and Greenvillc
and between Spartanburg and CO.
lumbia, in company with Supt.
Williams, has given out it's, report.
This inspection was made on
account of the recent complaints
from Greenvillc, Spartanburg and
Union. The Commissioners find
that new ties and heavy rails are
all needed on these lines to prevent
the numerous wrecks and make
possible better schedule.
The work of laying rails is being
pushed with special energy and it
is hoped that before long the work
will be complete.
On the S. U. e C. line, 75
pound rails have been laid for 40
miles, and two more miles will be
placed within two weeks. Within
the next 30 days, the 75-pound
rails will be laid south from Spar
tanburg. And 25,SOO cross ties
will be,placed.
Now, with work progressing from
both terminals, we may expect an
early completion.

In many rural districts there Is usu-
ally one accommodating man, who is
called upon, gratuitously. TOO. to shave
when ary. those who depart this
life. The writer remembers this GUS
tom as in vogue at Plymouth, Me-,
small town off the railway in Penob-
scot county. and a gentleman by the
name of Blanchard was usually sought
at such times.
One day an old gentleman had
passed away and Mr.. Blanchard was
sent for: the messenger being in
hurry himself thought the occasion
demanded more signs of activity on
Mr.. Blanchard's part. and expressed
his mind to that effect to which he
received the reply: We'll, he can
wait, can't he?"
Very soon. however, the shaving kit
was gathered up and a start for the
work was made. When the house was
reached the daughter of the departed
one, thinking the call was made to In
quire her fathers condition. came to
the door and said: We'll, father has
gone"
Gone, Where in HI has he
gone? came over to shave him." re-
piled Mr.. Blanchard.-Boston Herald.
