LOWER FARE BILL FAILS.
Railways Win Their Fight il
South Carolina Assembly.

- =
South Carolina Assembly.
Railway officials generally are not
little elated at the defeat Of d bill
in the South Carolina Legislature
which proposed to fix the maximum
passenger fare at . IL cents. ~ spe-
clal from Columbia thus tells the
story:
"rhe bill which has BEEN up before
the South Carolina Legislature look
ing to the reduction OF passenger
fares In this State to 21-2 cents per
mile has been defeated. 1t was argued
that the people Of South Carolina pre-
fer better transportation facilities to
lower rates. 1t was asserted that the
railroads could not stand reduction
in their passenger fares.
There Is considerable activity
among the railroads in the purchase
of new equipment and new tracking,
and the travelling public realizes that
d reduction in fares would not be bene-
icial.' 5ilslf

How to Smother
A Chimney Fire

The quickest, surest, neatest,
easiest and most effective way to
stop chimney fire, is to take a
large wet cloth and wind it
around the stove pipe just above
the stove. The moisture from
the wet cloth forms a cloud of
steam inside the pipe which
raises and smothers the fire in
the chimney almost at once.
This method has proven effective
in the case of a chimney fire SO
fierce that the stove pipe all the
way from the stove to the CHM
ney was red hot, and has never
been known to fail. The chief
beauty of the plan is it's simplic-
ity and the ease with which 1T
can be used by anyone. Simply
saturate large cloth with water,
wind it around the stove pipe at
any point ~ is hottie hotter
the better and the steam gener-
ated inside the pipe will do the
rest.
