run through 10 Greenwood, giving
three trains day each way between
Greenville and Greenwood.
This arrangement seems to us 10 be
about the best way we could expect
the trains TO be fixed, and so far as
Newberrv is concerned. We believe Will
give entire satisfaction.
1t will permit our friends as far up
as Greenwood to come to Newberry to
do their shopping and return the same
afternoon. and we cannot see how
it will be any disadvantage to any
one from Greenwood to Greenvile.
On the contrary, it ought to be de-
cided advantage because it gives them
two additional trains a day.
It is stated that this schedule will
be put in operation at once.
This will give US through sleeping
car service between Greenville and
Charleston.
It also gives close connection at
Greenville from and to Atlanta.
We think it a good adjustment.

The November Designer.

The Designer is publishing series
Of articles concerning the work Of
the various great organizations Of
women. and in the November number
Helen Corrinne Hambridge makes a
study of the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union which is most illumi-
mating. 1t is not generally known,
perhaps. that the association is now
conducting more than forty branches
of philanthropic work and that, in the
broadest acceptation of the word, it
stands for the betterment Of women.
Other important articles Of the month
include character sketch Of Tel
razzini by Margel Gluck, an essay on
E'The Minister'S Wife, by Cyrus
Townsend Brady, and a charming bit
of introspection, "Moments in
Quiet Woman's Life,'' by "a Quiet
Woman" Annette Geugueirre tells
how the plague was prevented from
spreading in San Francisco when she
pays tribute to "!The Women Who
Cleaned the City," and Albert Rufus
Baker, NJ. D., points out "a Better

OUR STREETS.

The Herald and News has contained
from time to time some criticisms of
the streets and side walks Of New
berry, and our special writer, The
1dler, has from time to time had
some structures upon the way the
streets and side walks were kept.
We take II these matters were writ
ten about to call attention to things
tnar we're needed rather than in a
spirit of criticism. In justice to the
CITY council and the superintendent Of
streets. it should be stated that dur
ing this year great deal OF perna-
nent work has been done, and the
streets and sidewalks in High Point
and in the property recently opened
up by the company which purchased
the Jones property, have been worked
and put in fairly good condition. This
work has been done in addition to the
regular and permanent work and
without an increase in the funds.
Heretofore, these new streets have
had practically no attention, and the
grass and weeds have been cut with
reaper.
It should be remembered that there
are some eighty miles Of streets and
side walks in Newberry, and the town
is trying to keep these up and at the
same time do the permanent work
with force of about fourteen hands,
and a part of this force is used in
driving the carts.
The fact is, we are now trying to
keep up the streets Of Newberry with
the same force that was employed ten
or twelve years ago when it had about
one-half the mileage, and as Alder
man Baxter stated the other night,
without very much increase in the
revenue. As a matter of fact our
streets and side walks will compare
favorably with those Of any city of
similar size.
The fact remains, however, that we
need more force on the streets and
more money spent on them. With
the force at work and the means en-
ployed, it is but justice to say that
good results have been obtained.

he might be excused, or he has been

up to New England and told the

capitalists in that way if he wanted
to get more money for other South

trying to show how much better this
country was than that in which case
he could also be excused, but he ship

THE NEW SCHEDULES.

The meeting Of the special COM
mittee in Greenville Tuesday with
representatives Of the Southern Rail
wav looking to an Adjustment of the
schedules and an Improvement Of
service, resulted in carrying out the
suggestions heretofore made by The
Herald and News.
The railroad officials stated hat it
would be impossible, owing to the III
creased expense. TO put on third train
over the Southern, between Columbia
and Greenville. This committee was
strongly in favor Of a third train.
Agreement was made with the rail
road to change the schedule so as to
conform to the suggestions advocated
heretofore by The Herald and News.
The train which now leaves Green
Vile at $50 a. NJ, known as No. Is,
will leave GreenvEle about Z in the
morning, passing Newberry about
1890 and reaching Columbia about
1890. There will be no change in
the train which now leaves Columbia
at l p. M, known as No. II. passing
Newbery at 2:4S p. m. and arriving
at Greenville at 6:55 E. m.
The train leaving Columbia at 1:l3
a. m., known as No. -, and reaching
Newberry at 9:57, will maintain the
same schedule. but will carry a Sleep
er through from Charleston to Green
vile, arriving at Greenville at 1890
.. m.. instead of l:l5 as at present.
This train will carry sleeper through
from Charleston.
Train No. 16 which now leaves
Greenville at 4:20 will leave Green
vile at 5:15 p. M, and arrive at Co.
1umbia at 1890 p. m.,which will make
it pass Newberrv about $50 p. NJ,
the schedule of this train having
been shortened. It will also carry
sleeper from Greenville to Vharles

If this talk of curtailment Of spin
dies is the result Of over-production
Of cotton goods, why should there be
any new mills being built. Would it
not be better to keep the old mills
running than to build new ones only
to have them run on part time. Is it
not a fact that cotton goods have ad-
vanced in price in the last few weeks {?
Is it or is it not true that the mills
were making from 20 to 40 per cent
when cotton was selling at ten and
eleven cents? Is it not true that as
the price Of cotton advances the
price Of the manufactured article ad-
vanceS? Would it not be just as
we'll with the manufacturer if he
paid price for the raw material
that was profitable to the producer
and at the same time made good
profit on the manufactured article? l?
Would it not be the same? Then
why should our Southern cotton mill
men be always on the bear side of
the market? We have never under
stood this.

that the factory turns out thirty-five

Safeguard Their Quality.
"The very fact that we turn out SO
many pianos. is in itself a safeguard
of their quality. People often ask US,
when we explain our seasoning process
to them why we lay SO much stress
on that. After we have explained our
process and they see the logic Of our
arguments, they ask if other manufac-
turers do not do the same thing. To
this we reply that unless the other
manufacturers are in our class they do
not. The reason is that the small man.
ufacturer can not afford to have his
money tied up in the seasoning process.
He must be getting his money out of
his investment right along OR go to the
wall. The financial backing of our
company, like that of all large manu-
facturers is such that we can afford
to let our pianos be thoroughly sea-
soned
1.-The reason for seasoning is not
alone in the case-as many people
think That is of comparatively minor
Importance in relation to the interior
of the piano. The most vital point OF
a piano is in the pins on which the
wires are strung.
Action of the Pins.
eff these pins are constantly chang
| ing position with climatic action
there is your piano out Of tune We
obviate this difficulty by imbedding
the pins on which the wires are strung
in bed of veneer. Nor is the veneer
run in one way or two ways-the We
neer runs in layers of various thick
nesses in different directions, SO as to
make it absolutely firm. In this way
the piano only gets out of tune after
long usage.
These are things that the large man.
ufacturer can do and must do, to- give
his piano prestige. 1t is a thing that
the stencilers and the small manufac.
turers cannot possibly do. Therefore
Richmond should take particular inter-
est in the fact that the Starr piano
company is real manufacturer and is
ranking among the piano builders who
are interested primarily in turning out
instruments which are of a quality
which can be used for artistic pur-
poses.

Few people have any idea of the
piano business Most people think that
every piano they see is product made
by different piano manufacturer.
There is vast difference between
piano manufacturer and a piano as

the United States are merely the pro-
duct OF the assembler. The assembler

Usually he begins in little back room
and turns out pianos, as there is
demand for them.
Such a piano is in marked contrast
to the article produced by the real
piano manufacturer The manufactur-
er makes his piano from start to fin
ish. He knows exactly what goes into
his piano. he gives time for the parts
to season thoroughly. and each part is
designed especially with reference TO
