CONTRACT LET.
Route for Railroad from Anderson to
Athen, Georgia, to be Sur
veyed.
News and Courier.

News and Courier.
Anderson, September lS.-Tht con-
tract for the survey of the Georgia.
Carolina Railroad will be let at Roys-
ton, Ga, tomorrow afternoon. This
road will connect. Anderson with
Athens, Ga. IT will be recalled that a
bi" railroad meeting was held at
Hartwcll, Ga, several weeks ago and
that the building of the road was aoi-
tatcd. 1t was decided that tie road,
which will be sixty miles in length,
should be constructed. Hon. w. L.
Hodges, of Hartwell, was selected
president at a meeting of committees
from each town along the route which
was held at Franklin Springs. Tt was
decided that all of the towns should
be assessed for The survey work. An
derson was assessed $3.50 for its share.
Two days ago the Anderson Chamber
or Commerce appropriated 300 and
the Anderson city council approDriat- :
ed $3.50.
Mr.. ). 5. Fowler and others who
are taking much interest in the move
ment have guaranteed the remaining
5000. Mayor McCully is the Andcr-
son representative and he will report
at the meeting tomorrow that Andcr-
SON s assessment has been raised. An
dcrson will be much benefited by the
building of the road. The route is
through a most fertile country and
many small towns will be tapped. An
dcrson will be able to have close con-
nections with the main lines of the
Seaboard and Southern, and will be
able to get direct connections with
the Northern and Western markets
through Atlanta. Many engineers
from this state and Georgia will bid
for the contract at oyston tomorrow.

EARLY RISING.
A Habit Which May Severely Tax the
Vital Powers.

"There is no adequate support for
the impression that the early morning
hours are in any way more whole
some or healthy than later periods Of
the day. Except in summer time they
are apt to be damp, foggy, chilly and
among the least desirable hours of
daylight, says Doctor Woods Hutch
inson in the American Magazine. 1t
Is quite true that during the summer
there Is sense Of cXhilaration about
being abroad in these early morning
hours, but this evaporatcS with the
dew and is apt 10 be succeeded by a
corresponding depression and loss Of
working power later in the day. I
have been observing my friends and
patients Tor the past twenty years, in
this respect, and am inclined to the
opinion that not little Of the deprcs-
sion and nervousness which common
ly develop in hot weather is due to
cxccSSlc exposure to light, from hab-
It's OF early rising, inherited from ag-
~ 't'''i 'l aHftSt'iS' llol Fonulciutt-
ed by three to four hours rest in dark
! ened rooms in the middle Of th1 day.
'S|condly. that the eXhiIaration cx-
pcricncrd during the early morning
hours in an expensive luxury which
has to be paid for later in the day. In
fact, have found. that Il general rule,
to pui il very roughly, the business
or professional man who rises al
hour before 7.m or 8, goes 10 bed, or
loses his workin" power an hour and
4 half earlier in the evening. Each
, individual has in thc beginning Of his
day about so much working power
stored up in his brain and fusclc
cells. If he uses this up with great
rapidity in the early morning hours
he naturally exhausts his stock the
sooner in the afternoon or evening.
"lt is largely matter Of when a
man wishes to be at his best. IF his
occupation is Of such a character that
he can clear off the br,nt Of his work
III the early morning hours, then let
him rise early. IF on the other hand
he requires full vigor and readiness
Of mind and body in the latter part
OF the day, or at night, then he must
rise later to get it. Even in pure mus
Gle work it Is false economy to work
too lon" hours.'

CONTRARY |
FORMER NORTH DAKoTAN WAS
CONSIDERED "A CONTRARY
MEMBER OF THAW JURY

The following Chicago press dis
patch is interesting, in connection
with the Thaw trial and the local in
terest of the presence of Wilbur F.
Steele, the former North Dakota
boomer, on the jury: Z ..' :. <
when Wilbur F. Steele of New
York was selected as a juror in the
Thaw case I predicted disagreement
of the jury, regardless of the evidence
in the case, 2 declared DIR. j. H. Austin
of Glenn Ellyn.
Steele is now a dealer in gas fix
lures in New York, but. when I knew
him in the early SOS he was real es-
tate boomer in Dakota. Harry Thaw's
father was reported then to be fnan-
cially interested in Steele's projects.
II served on several juries with
Steele and he was the most contrary
minded man ever knew" continued
DR.. Austin. Once we were jurors in
a case where a man was on trial for
robbing postoflce. The night the
robbery occurred three men were
sleeping on the second floor of a barn,
to which the robbers went and diyid-
ed the money. Through holes in the
door the men plainly saw the robbers.
Several months later one of these men
was brought back from New York to
Dakota to testify In the case, AL
though the courtroom was crowded
and the defendant was purposely
placed among the spectators, the man
unhesitatingly pointed him out as one
of the three men who divided in the
barn the money stolen from the post
Office and whom he heard talking of
the robbery at the time.
Despite this positive ntifcation,
and the strongest circumstantial evi-
.dednce. Steele refused to find the de-
fendant guilty. For three days the
eleven other jurors voted guilty on
every ballot, and Steele voted mot
guilty. All the efforts to make Steele
change his vote were futile. He acted
the same way in several other cases in
which was on the jury with him. His
controlling idea seemed TO be to take
the opposite stand from the other
