There is persistence in the re-
port that the Canadian Pacific has
acquired control of the Great West
ern which indicates more than prob
ability of accuracy. What the Great
Western has been under President
Stickney as brake on rate raising
by other systems Iowa shippers
know. What they may not know is
that the 800" line, owned by the
Canadian Pacific, has been to the
states traversed by it what the Great
Western has been to it's territory.
Time and again it has relieved the
shippers of the Northwest from mon
opolistic rates imposed by the rail-
roads in its region and those leading
east from Chicago. So sharp was its
competition and so effective that
stout effort was made at one time 10
have congress repeal the bonding
clause which permitted the 500 to
carry foreign chandise over its
lines in bond. There is no probab-
ility that its policy will be changed
If it acquires the Great Western.

Accidents in the coal mines of the
United States during the last calen-
dar year resulted in the death of g.
1926 men and the injury to 5,3 4
more according to statistics just
made public by the geological sur
vey. The death record was greater
by 1,033 than in 1906, and is said
to have been the worst year in the
history of the coal mining industry.
The figures do not represent the full
extent of the disasters, as reports
were not received from certain states
having no mine inspectors.

The special session of the Georgia
Legislature, after being deadlockel
over month in the senate over the
bill to abolish the convict lease sys-

cipalities for state road work under
certain conditions, and that tnc:'
shall be used by counties as the
county authorities see fit, and that
they must be used in public insti,u-

are to be at the disposal of the State

over which the senator's differed, it
being called the little joker by means

to perpetuate the system of graft

A device invented by P. j. Sim
men Of Los Angeles to prevent col
lisions Of railroad trains, and which
is in successful operation on a trial
section OF the Santa Re railroad in
Southern California, is now being
investigated by the Interstate Com
merce Commission. Under this sys-
tenn each train records on sheet
in the dispatcher's Office the exact
time 1t enters and leaves a block
and the dispatcher can signal to any
engineer either to stop or to pro-
coed. The dispatcher is protected
from human error by the automatic
interlocking OF the switches by which
he signals to the trains. That is a
signal for a train to go ahead can
not be given unless the block is
clear. A danger signal is given by
the presence of a train, broken rail
or open switch in the block ahead,
or By the dispatcher, and if it be not
obeyed by an engineer in the next
1000 feet, his train is automatically
stopped. The engineer can prevent
the stop only by reducing the speed
to the required limit. The time and
place where danger signal is CIV
en- is recorded automatically on the
engine. An official test is to be
made.

1t is the opinion of the Brookings
Press that the terminal assessment
provision of the state assessment law
ought to be repealed by the next
session Of the legislature, inasmuch
as favored roads take advantage Of
it to the detriment of other roads
and of the taXpaying public. The
iBrookings paper points out that the
North western terminals at Bruce, in
Guiding the depot, sidetracks ana
stockyards, were this year assessed
at $195, while the Rock Island ter
minals at Bushnell, with about the
same actual value, were assessed at
5000. Certainly IL the law is be-
ing used to promote discrimina-
tions of this kind, it should be
wiped from the statute books. 1t is
manifest that the Rock Island is ten
times too high or the North western
ten times too low.

WHY SUFFER?
Breathe Hyomei and Kill the Loath-
some Catalrh Germ.

Just as long as you have catarrh
your nose will itch, your breath will
be foul, you will hawk and spit,
and you will do other disgusting
things because you can't help your
SELF. The germs Of catarrh have
got you in their power; they are
continually and persistently digging
into and irritating the mucous men,
brs.ne Of your nose and throat.
They are now making your life
miserable; in time they will sap your
entire system Of it's energy, its
strength, its yigor and vitality,
But there is one remedy that will
kill the germs and cure catarrh, and
that is Hyomei, the Australian dry
air treatment.
The ]. G. Wannamaker Mfg. Co.,
the druggists, will guarantee Hyo-
mel to cure catarrh, or money back.
Don't delay this pleasant antisceptic
treatment. Breathe in Hyomei and
kill the germs.
The ]. G. Wannamaker Mfg. Co.
will sell you complete Hyomei out
fit, including inhaler, for only S1.00.
1t is alo guaranteed to cure bronchi-
tis, asthma, coughs, hay fever and

A POPULAR BRIDE.
Several Functions Given in Honor
of Miss Wannamaker.

The popularity of Miss Jennie
Wannamaker, who was married on
Wednesday night to Mr.. ]. w.
Fairey, was evidenced by the many
functions given in her honor last
week by friends.
A hose shower was given by Mrs.
Sheldon Scoville on Thursday after
noon, at which thirty Of her friends
were invited. Tables were arranged
for six-handed euchre and, after
playing many hands, large
package, in the form of an express
package, was brought in to the
bride-elect and, upon opening it,
many useful articles were found
from those friends who had gather
ed to enjoy the afternoon with her
Delightful refreshments were then
served.
Mrs. T. F. Brantley entertained
the members of the Carolina Club
Of which Miss Jeanie Wannamaker
is popular member, on Saturday
morning at her handsome home
with an elaborate luncheon in sew
eral courses. The bride-elect was
presented with beautiful pair OF
silk hose. After luncheon severai
hands Of bridge whist was enjoyed.
One Of the pleasantest of the
many parties given in honor of Miss
Wannamaker was the euchre party
given by Miss Alma Wannamaker
at her spacious home on Amelia
street Twenty-four friends were
invited to this, and siX-handed
euchre was much enjoyed. The
bride-elect was given a lovely prize
and Miss Florrie Bates won the
consolation. Delicious refreshments
were served.

number of friends were invited to
Mrs. E. N. Scovllle's in honor Of the

CONDEMN SUNDAY EXCURSIONS
The South Carolina Conference
~ 'T"I
Takes Such Action.

An interesting resolution was in
troduced in the South Carolina Con-
ference of the Methodist church OF
Laurens last week by Hon. I. w.
Bowman, of this city, who was one
of the. lay delegates from the Or
angeburg district, and unanimously
adopted by the Conference. The res
olution reads as follows:
Whereas, An unholy custom has
been instituted among many Of the
railroads of our State of running ex-
cursion trains on Sunday to, the va
rious pleasure resorts Of this and
adjoining States, and of selling tick
cts and transporting passengers on
Sunday to said resorts at greatly re-
duced rates; and,
Whereas, This custom OF running
said excursion trains, and of trans
porting passengers at, reduced rates,
to said resorts, is exceedingly demor-
alizing in its effects upon the people
of our beloved State and contributes
neither to the glory of God, nor to
the betterment of mankind, now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That it Is the sense of
the Orangeburg District Conference
Of the Methodist Episcopal church.
South, that the railroads of the
State Of South Carolina should dis
continue the custom Of running Sur
day excursion trains, and selling
tickets and transporting passengers
to pleasure resorts on Sunday at re-
duced rates, and that said railroads
are hereby respectfully requested
to refrain from same; that this Or
angeburg District Conference here
by memorializes the South Carolina
Annual Conference to adopt reso1u-
tions similar to thee above and to
call on the other Christian churches
of the State to join. with that body
in condemning Sunday excursions
on the said railroads and of selling
tickets and transporting passengers
at reduced rates on Sunday to pleas
ure rasorts."
The conference Immediately
adopted a resolution embodying the
sense of the above and calling upon
the Baptist convention, Presbyterian
Synod, etc., to pass similar resolu-
tions. So it seems that the religious
bodies Of the State will make a conf
bined effort against the weekend
pleasure excursions.

CoWARDLY AssASsINATED.
Perry Ussery, Young White Man.
Slain From Ambush.

Assassination, the most brutal
and cowardly form Of murder, Is
getting very common in this section
of the State, and something should
be done to stamp it out. Several
months ago a Mr.. Weeks was assas-
sinated while sitting in his house
at Dunbarton, some weeks ago a
young man was assassinated as he
was riding along the road in a
wagon, and now comes. the news
that about ten o'clock on last Sat
urday night young man by the
name of Perry Ussery was shot an
instantly killed by an unknown as
sassin at the carnival grounds in
the town Of Barnwell.
It is stated that Perry Ussery and
Marvin Holland were standing in the
shadow of building just on the
carnival grounds when, out of the
darkness, there came load of slugs
and buckshot, which took effect in
the back of the head Of Ussery, who
was, instantly, killed. Holland was
only slightly wounded. Immediately
after the shooting man was seen
running towards the swamp, which
is only few hundred feet away,
with a gun in his hands. Outside
Of this fact there is no clue as to thu
party who did the shooting.
Four bloodhounds from the Pen.
itentiary were put on the trail early
this morning. They found no trou-
BILE in following the trail across the
swamp, but it was lost in the road
on the other ride. 1t is almost cer-
tain that THE party had entered
some conveyance and so escaped.
A report from Barnwell says in
dignation is running high. over this
murder, which is one Of the most
brutal thht has ever occurred in
this tSate Ussery was we'll liked
by everybody, and so far as is known
has not an enemy in the world.

The Deadly Parlor Rifle.

Miss Elise Dorst, teacher of vocal
cultrue of a college at Spartanburg.
was shot and painfully wounded
while walking on the street by a
little negro boy who was shooting
a parlor rifle on Thursday. Miss
Eorst and another teacher had just
passed the boy and had proceeded
only a few steps when the shot
was fired. The ball took effect In
Miss Dorst's shoulder, passing
through the flesh and entering the
neck just below the ear. The shock
was so severe that Miss DOrst was
unable to return to the college and
was taken in a carriage to the home
Of DR.. Rosa CAN'T. Just such an
accident as this or worse will hap
pen in Orangeburg some Of these
days if the ordinance in reference to
shooting in the city limits IS not
more strictly enforced.

Snake in a Cabbage.

The Dillon Herald says, "Mr.
Elihu Muldrow brought to The
Herald Office Tuesday cabbage
snake which was discovered in a
cabbage by Mr.. ]. R. Jordan. The
snake was about five inches long
and about the size Of sewing thread.
1t was of light yellow color and
the head and tail were visible under
a magnifying glass. 1t is said that
one of these snakes contains enough
poison to kill sixteen people" In
preparing cabbage for cooking the
snakes should be carefully looked
after.

Some School Hints.

Is 1t because teachers fall into
mechanical, monotonous ruts Of
teaching and perform their work in
. manner so school-like and SO little
school-like that it never occurs 20
the pupil that what he learns from
his books has any connection with or
application to the things that occur
in everyday life? Here we think is
the trouble, and in this we should
reform. Let each teacher make his
work more and more practical; let
him strive to lift his pupils from
their unthinling. impractical meth
ods of study; let him endeavor ID
create an interest in their minds
upon the subjects discussed by the
older people Of the community, and
soon we shall have a race Of children
in our schools who will know more
at the age of II of what is practical
and useful than our children know
when they leave the common schools.

it was opened quilt on chair was
found to be on fire, which was ex-

caught fire is mystery, but 1t must
have been caused by rats and match
