Praeticing BY Arc Lights.

The Abbeville Foot Ball team Is practic'
ing at present on the Graded Schoo
grounds. The council has placed two art
lights on the grounds for the use Of the
ball players.
The lights are required because the
players are engaged during the day and
therefore, have only the night time t.
practice in. While the team has had very
little practice there are, nevertheless
some good punches Of muscle in it, ane
the Carolina scrubs will not find a wall
over by any means in tomorrow's game
The game will be called tomorrow a

Prosperity and Good Clothes.

Looking across the turbulent waters
of business the good ship Prosperity is
seen coming, this fall, with promises OF
plenty as potent as did the to our
Puritan forefathers in 1921.
Fifteen cents and better for cotton in
the South, a bumper corn crop in the
Northwest, a upward trend to everything
in the East-certainly cause to be Thank
full.
Why not join in the national spirit
of Thanksgiving on our National Holl-
day with a general replenishing of your
wardrobe.
Certainly such Suits and Overcoats
as ours, at the moderate prices we are
selling them for, will warrant it.
A business man is always Thankful
when his investments turn out successful
and money spent for garments always
prove to be a successful investment.

RadiuIn

When the most experienced Of Eng
lish chemists learned OF the foudation
Of the new Radium institute, he inauir-
ed what the endowment might be and
learned that It was about 2lOo,oG0. He
said that the institute would be OF the
value OF gram Of radium.
The present price OF radipm bromide
is 500 per milligram, and the sum
would increase ii large amount were
required.
Although radium, which burst on the
/ popular Imagination like the new star
in Perseus and as quickly faded, has
formed the subject OF thousands Of scien-
tific treaties since its discovery by NJ.
and Nine. Curie, six years ago, yet we
know remarkably little about it. The
responsibility for our ignorance is large
ly due to the fact that there is so little
isolated radium in existence.
Nine Curie has IS milhgrams Of rad
ium. She and her husband once had
more, but an unfortunate experiment
robbed them Of The result OF seyera
years work.
Sir William Ramsay has about q
milligfams, which was lent to him by
the Vienna Academy Of Science.
Sir William Crookes had about II
milligrams. which he has spanked away

in passing that the most important
thing which science calculated from tn,
shy element is its spectrum.

MEMORIAL PARK
ILLUMINATED

By way Of experiment Memorial
park was Lighted up Saturday night.
The effect was remarkably fine the
large globes constituting a cap sheaf
of beauty which makes the park quite
as much of an attraction at night as
during the day time.
The ornamental iron poles were
planted on Friday. On Saturday the
finishing touches were applied to the
work. The S0watt incandescent lights,
which approximate each one hundred
candle power, are enclosed in a globe
of aoout one foot in diameter.
1.-The S0.watt lamps afford abundant
light, while the large globes seem to
be just what are needed to touch up
the park at night. The four lights,
one at each corner of the monument,
light up the spot admirably and along
with the two globes at the Bloom
street entrance, constitute the princi-
pal attraction. The four other lights
distributed about the ground suffice to
illuminate the entire tract making il
possible to get about as easily at night
as during the day time.

Street FAIR
FOR DANV|LLE

A special meeting of council was
called last night for the purpose of
considering proposition to establish
street fair in Danville during the
Six-County Firemen's convention and
to transact any other business that
might come up.
". NJ. Alden, the manager of the
Penn Amusement company, was pres
ent before council and explained that
his concern had closed with the fire
department. of Dsnville to bring his
entire company here during the con-
vention week. The fire department, he
said, had expected to secure an open
lot but of this they were disappointed.
They were now casting about for a
new tract but could find nothing suit
able except section of Ferry street
between the D. L. & W. Railroad
crossing and the old canal. Mr. Alden
explained that ii would be necessary
to close up about fifty feet Of the street
over the canal.
Mr.. lies, who is member of the
firemen's committee, explained that
the departments had entered into a CON
tract with the amusement company
under advantageous terms and that the
firemen expect to realize we'll by the
transaction.
The proposition was discussed at
length, when Ii seemed to be the con-
senSus of opinion that the section of
Ferry street between the railroad CROSS
ing and the canal could be dispensed
with during the week of the conven-
tion.
On motion of Mr.. Jones, seconded
by Mr.. Finnigan it was ordered that
the use of the above described section
of Ferry street be granted the Penn
Amusement company during the fire.

MARKET CHANGED.

ing to the congested state Of affairs Oh
Thursday, June 10th, it would be in
advisable to attempt to hold market
on that day. The matter was discuss
ed. after which it was on motion ord
cred that on the week Of the fremen's
convention the ourbstone market be
held on Tuesday, Wednesday and Sat
urdaY.
Mr.. lies reported that considerable
feeling.in the second ward has been
aroused by the fact that the tree plant
ed in Memorial park by the school
children of that ward has been trans-
planted. Mr.. Marshall, chairman Of
the park committee, explained that he
had removed the tree to make room

he did not know that the tree was as

FARMERS DEPLORE
LACK OF RAIN

Notwithstanding the prevalence of
wet weather during April and the
early part of May the farmers are be-
ginning to deplore the lack of rain.
The highways are very dusty; be-
sides rain is needed to start the crops.
Showers have been predicted by the
weather bureau almost daily for a
week past but so far as this section is
concerned rain has not fallen in cop.
ious quantities of late.
Due to the lack of rain the river is
falling rapidly, which is condition
much dreaded owing to the polluted
state of the water. When the river is
low and sluggish the shospital sewage
is much more apt to reach the intake
of our water works than when there
is brisk and copious current to dilute
and carry the sewage away.
