"A CHANCE FOR CHARLESTON.
The Navy Department Calls for Bids
on Supplies for the Ships at this
Station.

Washington, NJ aay 10.-The navy
department will receive bids from
Charleston merchants up to 10
O'Clock, May fourteenth, for sup
plying such ships as may go
to Charleston or to the naval sta
tion during The fiscal year, begin
ming July l, 1907, with meats, bread,
butter, corn meal, preserves, canned
fruits and, in fact, everything usual
ly supplied to the ships of the navy.
At the same time bids will also be
opened for supplying rne same things
at the other CARDS throughout the
country. At stations where supplies
have been secured for any length of
time there is usually keen rivalry
and bidding is lively.
AT the department today il was
stated that while it was not thought
any great amount Of provisions would
be purchased ut the Charleston sta
ton during the next twelve months,
for the reason that il will take just
about that length of time to entirely
complete the station and have it in
readiness to dock ships, the DEPART
ment vas desirous Of securing as
many bids as possible.
There is an excellent opportunity
for Charleston merchants to build up
local trade with Government
through this medium. The margin
Of profit is fair. the accounts when
just arc quickly paid and, barring the
usual rcd tape, the business as Il
whole is considered profitable one.

Woman'S Head Literally
Bursted From Headache.

Nashville, Tenn. "A Glasgow,
dispatch says that Mrs. Bette
Davis, an aged lady, who lives
at Coral Hill, KY, recently had
her head to burst from headache.
The case is most peculiar one,
and is puzzling the doctors.
Thursday afternoon Mrs. Da-
Wis took severe headache and
suffered throughout the after
noon, night and all day Friday.
The usual simple remedies fail
ed TO give relief, and some time
Friday night a hole about the
size of a 80 calibre ball appeared
in Mrs. Davis forehead, near the
temple, and when discovered the
blood had run down off the bee
and for more than six feet on the
floor.
After the loss of considerable
blood Mrs. Davis head became
easy and since then she has suf-
fered no inconvenience.

Singular Accident in a Char

The Observer: While work
ing on the engine used in oper-

the Hotel Selwyn, a colored help
er uuwittipgly allowed the cord
of his extension lamp to get
caught in the governors belt,
which threw it off. The regula-
tor thus being put out of COM
mission, the big S-foot fly wheel
ran away under heavy head of
steam, it's speed accelerating mo-
mentarily until it became so great
that it broke to pieces, one sec
ton weighing 400 pounds being
hurled like a cannon ball through
eight inches of concrete into the
Office above, another section
weighing perhaps 200 pounds
being thrown through into the
dynamo room adjoining the en-
gine room and another fragment
weighing 100 pounds being i'm
planted in nearby wall. Wa
ter pipes, ammonia pipes and
everything else in reach was
smashed. Perhaps the greatest
loss was sustained in the china
closet, where part of the fine
ware used in the hotel was stor-
ed. The scene there beggars
description. The total loss is es-
timated to be about 81 900.

Bouquet for the Hospitable
People of Heath Springs.

The editor of the Wateree Mes
senger, of Camden, in his report
of the recent meeting of theSum-
ter District Conference in Heath
Springs, says:
The good people of Heath
Springs did themselves proud in
the royal reception they gave the
members of conference. AL.
though small town there was
no tr' ible in finding comfortable
homes for all of the delegates.
The three Observation-Disclosures
Baptist and Presbyterian-and
commodious school house, speaks
we'll for the sentiment of the
people of Heath Springs. 1t
shows that they are awake to the
best interests of the people.
They are proverbial for their
open-hearted hospitality. In
the recent past they entertain
ed the Presbytery and Baptist
Association. They believe in
engaging in good work. We
spent couple of days there, and
our time was divided in the homes
of Mr.. Hiram Mobley and Mr.
Wiley Vaughn, where we were
most cordially received. We
shall remember them and theil
families as new made friends.
One thing particularly tha
impressed us very favorably with
Heath Springs is that the towr
is laid off nicely, with good wide
streets, and shade trees have
been put out on all of them. The
mineral spring is also quite al
attraction, and there was a goot
deal of drinking from the health
giving spring on the part of thu
delegates to the convention.
While at Heath Springs W.
called on our esteemed frient
Capt. ]. G. Rollings, who is re
cuperating at the home of hi
brother-in-law Mr.. A. H. Dun
can. His many friends through
out the county will be glad t
learn that his health is improving
He is, however, quite weak yet
but we are glad to say that he
seems to be on the road to recov
! cry.
