INTERCOLLEGIATE CONTEST.
Southern Will Operate Special Train
Today-Ball Game Between New
berry and Clemson.

The Herald and News on Tuesday
mentioned the fact that the South
ern railway will run a special train
from Prosperity to Greenwood today
on account Of the intercollegiate or
atorical contest to be held in Green
wood tonight.
This train will be a great conven-
ience to the people of this county and
between here and Greenwood who de-
sire to attend the contest, and also to
witness the game of ball which will
be played this afternoon at Green
wood.
It was with some difficulty that the
train was secured and as it seems that
Greenwood is to be the place at which
these contests are to be held from
year to year in order to have special
train made one Of the permanent fea-
lures of the occasion it is necessary
that it be patronized.
The special will leave Prosperity at
1890 and Newberry at 1910. The
round trip fare from Prosperity is
5000 and from Newberry $17O. The
train will not leave Greenwood until
after the exercises are over at night
which will probably be about twelve
O'Clock, thus furnishing an opportun-
ity for all persons from Prosperity
to Greenwood to attend the exercises
and the ball game and be at home the
same evening.
The ball game this afternoon at
Greenwood will be between Newberry
and Clemson.

AMUS-U THEATRE.
Should Have Encouragement Change
of Boards Daily-Matinee Same
as Night Performance.

The manager OF this vaudeville
says his sixth week las been better
attended so far than any week. He
seems to think that his little play
house is going to prove a success in
this city and as long as the crowds
show their appreciation by attending
he will still continue to do his very
best to procure the best in vaudeville
and the very latest in life motion pic
lures.
Raymond and Hess left yesterday
with good praise as a comedy sketch
team. Their work was very much ap-
preciated by the crowds.
Silver and Silver will hold the
boards Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day. They come highly recommended,
as versatile team and will give com
plete change daily.
Mr.. Epting deserves a great deal
credit for furnishing the people
Newberry such a grand little place u
amusement. He has been trying ever
since opening to get the split week,
that is, giving new faces every Mon
day and Thursday and has at last sue
ceeded. This will no doubt be more
pleasing to the people as It gives a
complete change in vaudeville every
day.
There will positively be the same
show at all matinees as there is at
night performances.

feated Newberry here this morning in
hotly contested pitchers battle, the
score being 2 to l.
Both twirlers were in excellent
form, Monroe pitching a shade better

costly errors in the fatal ninth.

game, taking in several near hits in
great style. Back was the hitting
star. securing a double and SINCE out
Of four times up. Watson for Erskine
made a sensational shoestrine catch

PcST0FFICE LOCATED.
Mr.. J. A. Burton Has Received Notice
That Mrs. Cooks Lot Has Been
Selected.

Mr.. James A. Burton. real estate
agent, has received a telegram from
the secretary of the treasury at
Washington, that the proposition sub
mitted through his agency for the lot
Of Mrs. Cook at the corner Of Friend
and College streets had been selected
as site for the new postofice build
ing at Newberry.
Mr.. Burton does not know just how
much Of that lot will be taken. In
addition to the lot of Mrs. Cook, he
had an option on portion Of. the va
cant lots Of Mr.. L. C. Boland and
the estate Of Mr.. James F. TODD. It
cannot be stated, therefore, just how
much the price Will be for the lot un-
til it is determined how much of the
additional land will be necessary for
the government building.
This will move the postofice just
one block further from the depot than
it is at present, and vii be very con-
venient to all Of the business con-
Germs Of the city and if the town
grows it must Of necessity grow east
ward.
The Herald and New has always
been Of the opinion that the lot Of
the Methodist church in the same
street and running up to college street
was the most desirable location for
the government building but it seems
that this lot was not wide enough.
We have not said anything about this
lot for the reason that there might be
people who would think that our
Judgment was biased on account of
the proximity of the lot to the office
Of The Herald and News. Next to
this lot we are frank to say that in
our opinion the lot selected is the
most desirable Of the many lots which
were offered, and will serve the best
interest and convenience Of more peo-
pie than any Of the other lots.
We hope now that the government
will let the contract for the erection
Of the building at once.
