TRAGIC EVENTS ARE RECALLED
Many Daring FeRts Are Attempted
by Foreign Motorists for the
DeIectatiOn of the
Public.
TRAGIC EVENTS ARE RECALLED

For breath-taking daring there is no man
living who can give points to the modern
motorist, who seems to take as much pleas
ure In risking his neck as the average man
exercises care in saving his.
None but a mailman, Cor motorisD for in
stance would have attempted that recent
escapade Of James Carol at Tacoma,
Wash, In riding down a wooden staircase
Of 10 steps without brakes, The car used
weighed a ton and a half, and before 1t had
got a quarter of the way down so terrific
was the speed that the tires were ripped off
as II they had been made of paper.
Before the journey was half accomplished
the giatn machine was crashing down at a
speed OF eighty miles an hour, leaping the
steps a score at a time; and when at last
the car was brought to a standstill 1t was
found that all the mechanism was broken,
and only a miracle had prevented 1t from
flyins to pieces during the journey.
This feat recalls to mind that OF the in
trepid motorist. Mr.. Coles, who some time
ago gave a thrilling performance at the
London Alhambra. A platform constructed
some feet from the stage, and supported by
strong baulks OF timber, was approached
by a steep chute on one side and steps on
the other. Driving the car up the chute.
Mr.. Coles brought It to a dead stop in a
space not an inch longer than the actual
length Of the car, and then sent 1t down
two flights OF stairs, afterward pulling the
car up in It's own length. There was no
ridge or edge Of any kind to the side OF the
stairs, and a mistake OF a quarter OF an
inch would probably have resulted in a
fatal smashup.

After talking OF stage motoring feats, one
might mention that which has been quite

the car TO attain fun speed, At the end OF
the platform is a break Of ten yards. and

When one considers the many earnest,

the Importance attached to such diversion
for the growing. youth. Moreover, It is
pleasing to note with what ready enthus-

But I'm The general excitement OF getting
the boy out Of doors, comments a writer in
oilers Weekly, is not the girl. the
mother of the race and the one from whom
the boy more often inherits his constitu-
ton. is not she being rather overlooked?
II is only sensible that great attention
should be given to getting the boy into
open air for exercise. but IL he with his
vigorous male physique and his consequent
scorn for lolling about the house, so needs
this life, how much more urgent would
seem the necessity for also interesting his
sister. Yet except for the more or less
perfunctory work OF certain high schools
and for the playground movement in con
nection with our public schools, she is. for
the most part. physically neglected.
Few girls honestly crave an outdoor life
or follow a systematic open air regime.

Though there are freak hats this season,
the Easter millinery Is exceedingly .attrac-

or the nan beautiful home weddings
that have been solemnized in Hodges none
have been marked by greater interest than
that of Miss Matte Nickles and Mr.. Sam
uel Evans on Wednesday evening at 7:3O
o'clock.
The brides home was lavishly decorated
in holly, mistletoe, and other evergreens.
White and green was the color scheme for
the parlor and hall, while red and green
were used in the reception room and
brides dining room. A large red bell was
suspended by strands OF red ribbon reach
ing the four corners OF the table, where
the brides cake rested on a reflector. Red
and green candles furnished the lights for
this room.
Promptly at the appointed hour to the
strains Of Memberships Wedding March
played by Miss Louise Talbert Of McCOr-
mick, the bridal party led by ribbon bear
ers, little Misses Ruth Nickles and Mary

a semi-circle on either side Of the arch,
next came the groom with his brother Mr..
Charles Evans, lastly advancing slowly
came the bride leaning on the arm OF her
sister, Miss Pearle Nickles.
The ceremony was performed by Rev.

pastor. Miss Talbert rendered q very ap-
propriate selection softly during the SER
vice.
The couple was united under a lovely
arch of evergreens draped with white
satin ribbon from which a large white we'd
ding bell was suspended. Palms, ferns
and other pot plants lent a picturesque
background. The soft light of candles
added beauty to the occasion. Immediate
" after the ceremony the bridal party
were ushered'into the dining which
was hastily decorated in red and green:
An elegant luncheon was served to oil
present.
The bride was attired in q handsome
close fitting gown Of messeine and pearls
Her bouquet was bride roses, and aSpafa-
gus tied with tulle. .
. The bridesmaids wore lovely dresses Of
satin, each carried bouquets Of white car
nations.
The popularity and esteem with which
they are held was shown by the numerous
gifts they received.

Savannah River Development.

The shoals on Savannah near Clarks
Hill, Edgefleld County are being develop
ed.
Three million dollars are being spent in
Harvesting the great power of the river.
The electricity will be sold in Augusta
and Savannah principally.
It is only a question Of time, and a short
time at that, before. the Calhoun alls
power will be developed. There is enough
power in these falls to turn every wheel
in Abbeville, Anderson and Greenwood
Counties.
1t will mean much for Abbeville when
this immense power is developed. The
mill at Calhoun Falls is built with a view
to utilizing electricity as a motive power
md no doubt this mill in time will be ran
by power generated on the Savannah.
The mills here are so near the power
that doubtless they will also utilize the
same power.
Water power is the cheapest power in
the world and the most lasting and it is
safe to say that stock in water power
companies will be good stock from now on
to the end Of time.

hbbeyiIse Leads
Progress in Road Building,

Detailed reports flom about thirty super
visors received at the office OF Com
missioner Watson show that during the
past year there have been built the fol-
lowing mileages of roads in this State in
these counties: Macadam, 20 miles; gravel,
81 miles; sand-clay, q miles.
The total road built in this State is as
follows for the 81 counties: Macadam, 1O5
miles; shell, 81 miles; sand-clay, 2,72o
miles; gravel LOIS miles.
Abbeville now leads in miles built, being
as follows: Sand-clay, 200 miles; gravel,
As miles; macadam, 20 miles.
The aggregate figures for the whole
State in 1904 we're: Sand-clay, 1878 miles;
gravel, 179 miles; stone, 60 miles.
So the increase has been very graft
flying for the good roads movement, being
about double the 1904 total for the five
years. A booklet on sand-clay roads will
be issued shortly by the department, as
sisted by Supervisor Samuel Owens OF
Richland. The Richland sand-clay roads
are now being talked about the country
over, and it is probable that this form OF
highway will become more and more pop

The CASE OF B. L. McGILL.
Drinking on Trains.

Just how drunk must a man be to iusti-
fly the conductor in putting him off the
train?
This is a question ofinterest to the peo-
pie Of Greenville and everywhere else who
have ever been annoyed on a train by a
drunken man, decided last week by
the State Supreme Court in the appeal OF
the Seaboard from a decision of the Cir
cult Court giving B. L. McGill $4,000 dam
ages for having been put off a train while
drunk.
The Court ruled that a man be legally
elected if he is so drunk as to be disgust
ing to reasonable passengers, though he
may not be disorderly, and sent the case
back for a new trial, which practically
amounts to a reversal in this case.
The decision is of interest on South Car
DINA trains, where on holiday or Saturday
afternoons and nights there is often not
only disgusting drinking, but not infre-
quently profane and even obscene Ian
guage, although there is a special act
making drinking in a passenger coach a
