quote the law on it. The text, after cetting forth the duty of the county com missioners to call bond elections. goes on to say, "but no second election under this act shall be held within two years of an election heretofore held, for the same purpose"
 however, the former election was for the purpose of building a county jail and court house. The plan suggested is to call an election for the purpose of building a county Jail alone. Such, 1t is claimed, is not flor the same purpose"
 Judge S. E. Green5 of the probate court was yesterday asked to look up the law, anI to render his personal opinion as to the legality of such an election. He sail that he believed there would be d difference in the purpose, and thought such an election legal.

death suddenly at about one o'clock
on Tuesday afternoon. He had been
working in what is known as the Clark

Effect Being Known, Find Cause.

Things have come to pretty
pass when a Judge of the laws
must write to the president of a
railroad and thank him for ask.
ing railroad men to be courte.
Gus to the public. After Pres.
w W Finley of the Southern
Ry. had made his address in At
lanta he received the following
letter:
Chester, S. C., Feb. 10, 1907.
My dear sir:
| was so much pleased with
your recent utterances before
your employees-at Atlanta, l
believe-that I have determined
to say so to you.
A community judges rail
road corporation by the treat
ment it is accorded by the roads
agents there. If frailroad agents
IN subordinate places would
treat the public like a store
keeper does when the public
enters 4 store, the public would
rapidly grow to regard kindly
the railroad company. am
sure the average railroad agent
does not realize how much harm
he can do his principal.
Yours truly,
(Signed) GEO. W. GAGE.
Then there is one thing to be
said in favor of the dlscourteous
railroad official, that he is no re-
spector of persons. Judge Gage
has no doubt felt the sights
we all meet from time to time.
There is an interesting ques
tion just here, one President
Finley would do well to study.
Why is it that the average EN-
ployee of a railroad company
takes so little interest in the
road he is working for? What
is it that brings about this lack
of loyalty? If MIR Finley, the
philosopher, will work this out
find the cause and correct it: lie
. will do more to bring the pub
lie to the road than President
Finley, the diplomat.-GreenrIlIe

it Was Nice to Havs the Children OF
the House HeIp Out.

The Friday Afternoon Whist club
had assembled at the home of one
of its leading spirits On the upper
west side when i. was discovered
that two members we're absent, and
therefore there were two hands
short. The ladies' were in guam
dary till the hostess announced that
he- two children, Clarence, aged
eleven, and Gwendoline, aged thir-
t"cr, had picked up little knowl-
edge of the game from watching
their elders. She suggested that as
it wouldn't do to call the game off
after so many had taken the trouble
to come, and as she could think of
20 other way to get two substitute
hands, the two children would at
least help to fill out the tables-that
is, if every ore was'perfectly agree
able.
Gust the thing" declared all the
ladies in chorus. The hostess was
urged to bring them in at once.
Every one would be just delighted.
Clarence and Gwendoline were
duly summoned and introduced.
They took their seats modestly, the
ladies promised to assist them on
knotty points, and the game COM
menced.
There were two prizes offered,
and both were of considerable value
Every woman present made Up her
mind to have one of those prizes at
any cost. The game was entered
into with abandon, and no quarter
was shown to any one. So far from
needing any assistance Clarence and
Gwendoline seemed to hold their
own pretty well. In fact, they seem,
ed so perfectly at home that when
in the stress of excitement a mem,
Der failed to adhere strictly to the
rules Clarence would call attention
to the error gravely and Gwendo'
line with ladylike dignity. The up,
shot of the game was that when the
afternoon was over and the fna!
/ count, was made Gwendoline and
Clarence were in possession OF both
prizes. :.
The ladies took leave of theil
hostess in a body with profuse
thanks for the pleasant afternoon
all declaring they had had just the
loveliest time, and she had been sc
sweet to them all they really must
thank her again.
But as the door closed after the
last smile and goodby there was ar
ominous silence in the ranks of the
Friday Afternoon Whist club.
Chow nice to have children who
can play whist so WELL" said one Ia
dy sweetly, with a small gleam II
her eve.
'1sn't it," agreed another. III
must lie so nice to be able to buy
lovely prizes and then keep them II
the family" And there was scarce
ly any sarcasm in her voice at all

against Sunday freight trains.
That day seems to be the one
especially devoted to this class
of trains, Judging from the
number passing here last Sun
day. Among the "perishable"
freight carried through here on
the last named day were sever
al cars of lumber, car trucks,
steel rails and even boats. Just
so surely as night follows day,
the government must control
the railroads or the railroads
will control the government.
These corporations recognize
no God save dividends, and no
