ENFORCES SANITATION RULES
General Inspector Says ExpectOration
Causes Unwholesome Conditions.
MAJOR HAvERsr1CK TELLS LAW
Would stop People from Splitting In
side Government Building or
ON the sidewalks on the
Outside.

Major w. Hayerstick OF Washington, d.
10. general inspector of supplies for the
Treasury department, Is in Omaha on his
annual visit OF inspection of the big fed
eral building zone Of the important fea-
lures OF my present visit is to look into
the sanitary condition OF the building
said he, "and 20 see that these sanitary
conditions are maintained. am free to
admit that the general conditions about
the building are creditable to the custodian
Colonel Barrows but have not failed to
observe that the sanitary conditions on the
sidewalks about the building are bad. THIS
the custodian OF the building is not re-
sponsible for. The sidewalk seems to be
ibespattered with stains OF tobacco and
lother disease generating sputa, 20 an ex-
tent that does not exist In many other
cities that / have recently visited 1 un-
derstand that Omaha has an ordinance that
lprohibits expeotoration on the sidewalks,
lsbut nv observation has been. since in the
.bity. that the ordinance Is not very closely
enforced. OF course we have nothing to
do with the municipalities, but only with
me public buildings owned and maintained
by the government
"But she efforts OF the government to
maintain a wholesome sanitation will be
futile without the cooperation OF the muni-
clpalites.
''The government will insist upon the OBJ
servance OF sanitary laws in the public
buildings and about them. Gentlemen will
sep to the curb TO expeetorate into the
street. and others must be taught 20 do so
or take the consequences
THE United States marshal is empowered
10 arrest anyone who deliberately expeo-
torates on the floor OF a government build
ing or who defaces the walls. radiators
closets or other appurtenances OF govern
ment buildings BY striking matches on
them or commits any other manner Of de-
facement
I'VE rely largely upon the press TO as
sist us In educating the public against
such practices. and the Intention Of the
government cannot be made too strong IN
the enforcement OF these sanitary regulS-
lions. We hope 20 have the hearty CO.

TWO MEN FINED.
For Failing to Provide Fire Escapes
Central House and CrOtWell
Hotel.

There is on the statute books for
1910 an act to provide for fire escapes
in certain classes Of hotels in this
State. The act specifies that the
houses coming within the provisions
Of this law are those in which ten or
more sleeping rooms are used for
transient guests and having three or
more stories; that this class Of house
shall be provided with an iron fire
escape on outside Of the building. Ef-
fective October /, 1910. Failure to
comply with this law is punishable by
fine of not less than SO nor more
than $50 Every day thereafter that
the hotel is run in violation Of the
law constitutes a separate ofense.
The hotels in Newberry affected by
this law are the Crotwell hotel and
the Central house The Crotwell is
owned by Mr. S. P. Crotwell and he
has been fined and has paid $40. In
the absence from the city of the own
er of the Central house the fine fell
upon Mr.. S. Rodgers, who has lately
been running the house. He was fin
ed and has paid $40. Mr.. Rodgers
has ceased to operate the place and
has removed to his private house in
the city.
The prosecutions for the violation
of this law came through Magistrate
John Henry Chappell's office, papers

HIGE GRADE ENTERTAINMENT.
DR.. Harms Advises NeWberrians to
Attend Entertainment by Byron
King, Knowing Whereof He
Speaks.

I want to recommend to my friends
in Newberry that they arrange to at
tend the entertainment in Holland
Hall tonight (Tuesday) by Byron King.
I have heard him several times, and
unless he has lost his gift since the
last time I saw him, he is sure to
give the people here very high grade
entertainment. And that he is not less
the master artist than he was is evi-
denced by the fact that he is still
head of the School of Expression in
Pittsburg. Our people are very for
tunate in the privilege Of hearing
Prof. King, and I write this suggestion
so that it will not be my fault if any
body misses this opportunity.

THg POSTAL SAVINGS BANK.
Establishment Of These Banks in Ac.
cOrdance With Recommends.
ton in 19O9-The Object.

The fact that the Newberry postof-
fee was chosen out Of all the second
class postofhces in the State for a
postal savings bank is matter in
which he people of NeWberry take
considerable pride. Fourth Assistant
postmaster General DeGraw attend
ed the meeting of the State Rural Let
ter Carriers association in NeWberry
this year, and while here he remark
ed upon the thrift of the people Of
this section of the State, and he must
have been impressed with the manner
in which the affairs of the NeWberry
postohce are conducted. The post
master here is Col. C. J. Purcell, and
he has an invaluable assistant in As
sistant Postmaster Chas. A. Bowman.
The establishment of postal savings
bank was recommended in the annual
report of Postmaster General Hitch
cock for the fiscal year ending June
80, 1909. In that report, speaking Of
these postal savings banks, Postmas-
ter General Hitchcock said: 1T is be-
lieved that they would prove here, as
they have elsewhere, an inestimable
benefit not only to those who directly
use them, but also to the general bus
mess community, including the bank
ing interests" Postal repositories" :"
said the postmaster general, would
benefit rather than injure our regular
banking interests. No instance is Of
record where such a result has not en-
sued from the estab blishment of these
repositories in foreign countries" I"
Reviewing the history of these deposi-
tories in other countries, the postmas-
ter general continued: "Thus there is
little reason growing out Of exper-
ience for the fear that postal savings
banks would enter into hurtful COM
petition with the regular banks. The
limitation placed on the net amount
to be deposited by any individual and
the provision for redepositing in reg
ular banks, together with the natural
restriction of postal deposits by rea-
son Of the low rate Of interest paid,
would render the relation of the pos
tai repositories to the regular banks
one Of helpful cooperation"
The postofice authorities here have
as yet received no notice as to when
steps will be taken to establish the
postal savings bank here.

FIRE HEADQUARTERS.
Addition is Nearing Completion-Will
Greatly Increase Equipment and
Efficiency of Department.

The addition which is being built
to fire headquarters is rapidly near
ing completion. The old building is
26 feet wide and two stories in height,
and the addition is seventeen feet wide,
two stories high. The whole struc-
ture is of brick and erected along mod
ern lines.
When the two new horses were pur-
chased recently, it was decided to
keep one Of the old pair for tourna-
ment purposes and for an emergency
auxiliary. The handsome new grays
will occupy the old quarters, and
tracing Joe" will occupy the new
quarters, ready to take out the one
horse hose wagon.
The old building has meeting hall
for the company and bedroom up
stairs, and the new building will have
three bedrooms upstairs. The addi-
ton greatly increases the equipment
and the efficiency Of Newberry's excel
lent volunteer departmnt.
The work has been under the su-
pervision of Alderman P. F. Baxter
and has been almost wholly done with
the labor of the city conVicts giving
the work to the city at minimum Of
expense.
A wildcat whistle has been order
ed for the power house, and will be
connected with the fire headquarters
and with some other section Of the
city by electric wires.

Intendant and Wardens Chosen-NeW
Bank Assured-PrOgressiTe Town
Forging Ahead.

By unanimous vote Of the citi-
zens within the territory included, the
town Of Silverstreet was incorporated
on Friday, the following officials be-
ing chosen:
Intendant-B. NJ Havird.
Wardens-D. L. Ham, w. V. Bled-
soc, S. H. Paysinger, J. c.. Berry.
Silverstreet is one Of the several
progressive towns in Newberr coun-
ty. Three questions were voted upon
in the election-the incorporation Of
the town, the name, and the officials,
with the result above stated.
There is located at Silverstreet one
OF the most modern ginneries in this
section of the State, drawing a large
business from that section Of NeWber-
ry, and also from Saluda county
There are good and substantial mer-
camille establishments, good cotton
market, and the new town is on 4 solid
business foundation.
A bank for the town is now assured,
with a capital of $4,000. The stock
has already been subscribed. Mr.
Joseph E. Norwood, Of this city, cash
ier of the Newberry Savings bank,
and one of the best bankers in the
State, will be the president
There is one matter in which the
people of the new town Of Silverstreet
feel they are not getting the right
kind of deal, and that is in the accom-
modations at the depot. The depot is
a practically new structure, and ade-
Quate to the demands, but the COM
plant is that the Southern railway
closes the waiting room for whites at
night, forcing tie white ~~,ple who
come to the station to tak2 the train

what accommodation thoE may find.

A SHALL FIRE.
Store Room at Mollohon Village Burn
ed-FaTorable Winds Prevent
Further Damage.

A small store room in Mollohon
village belonging to Mr.. Frank Jones
and at present used by him as bar
Der shop was destroyed by fire on Sat-
urday night about $50 o'clock. Mr..
Bullard had used it until last Monday
as a small grocery store, but he had
moved out. Mr.. Jones had been in
the building until after 9 o'clock and
soon after he reached his home the
fire was discovered. 1t is supposed
that the fire caught from a defective
fue.
The building was valued at $500,
and Mr.. Jones carried $500 insurance
on the building and 500 on his bar
Der shop fixtures. It was fortunate
that the wind was not blowing toward
town or there might have been very
expensive fire as there is no water
protection at this part of the village.
