COMPLAIN ABOUT
 NEW HAVEN ROAD
Boston Coal Go. Goes to Commerce Commission Re-
 garding Through Rates

Washington, Aug. N.-Refusal of the Pennsylvania Railroad and the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad to establish through / routes and joint rates on coal shipped from the Allegheny field in Pennsylvania, to New York and New England points, Via Jersey City, is made the burden of the complaint filed with the inter- state commerce commission by the Bader Coal company of Boston, Mass.
 Only combination rates between points of the coal's origin and New England points, now are in existence; the result being that the complain ant, which handles large amount of Allegheny coal, alleges that it is re- quired to pay heavier freight charges than do other concerns with which it comes into competition. It is re- quested that the defendant lines be required to establish through routes and joint rates on Allegheny coal to all New York and New England points.

MISS ANGLIH WON'T
GIVE MATINEE HERE
FOLKS DISAPPOINTED
FAILURE OF FAIR ONE TO CONE
TO COLUMBIA NOT BAR
kER's FAULT.
MANAGER BUSY WITH WIRES
Used Every Effort to Get Actress
Here-ofer to Come Sunday Is
Very Promptly Turned Down-May
Bring Suit.

That Columbia folks were dtsap-
pointed over the failure OF the charm
ing Margaret Anglin to appear before
the footIights last night, is putting 1t
mildly. II you don't believe they were
warm about the the turn matters had
taken just ask Manager Barker, that
is il you can get his telephone line.
From early yesterday afternoon until
late last night and again beginning
this morning and until noon he was
kept busy answering inquiries and
making explanations over the phone.
The manager IL in no way to blame
for the failure of the particular and
proud one not coming to Columbia.
He did all in his power to. bring her
here He spent money freely In tel
ephones and kilograms trying to make
an appointment for her this afternoon
to play a matinee but all to no avail.
He had cleaned up and repapered and
,repainted a part OF the opera house.
No pains or money was spared to
make the event one of the greatest in
the history of the local house.
Miss Anglin would not agree to
come here this afternoon for matt
nee except upon terms that were pro
hibitory. She did finally agree that
she would play here Sunday night,
but the local manager refused to en-
Itertain the suggestion for a moment.
He promptly informed her that this
city was located in the South in the
midst of Christian civilization and
environment and that Sunday thea
tres would not be tolerated here. So
THAT ended the negotiations.
| Manager Barker, from the investi'
cation that he had made inclined
to the belief that had Miss Anglin de-
Itermined to come to Columbia and fill
her engagement last night that she
could have procured special train
and done so. If upon further investi
gation he finds that this is the case
he will probably take legal action fol-
damages against her. He will proba
bly, go to Nashville this afternoon tc
look into the matter further. Miss
Anglins company plays there tonight
tomorrow and tomorrow night.
Had the company appeared they
would have been greeted by one Of
the best houses that Columbia ever
had The advance sales were close
to any ever made here and the prices
were very much above the average.

HERE.

Here-Great Potato country--T~o

A walk about the business section OF
Columbia will show that the local
market affo,d DIS everything needed for
the table n the line of vegetables
fruits while a cali at any of the groc-
cry storeswill disclose the fact that
there is nothing else necessary for the

supplied in this city.
The fruit and vegetable market is
especially tempting, and at this late
day many fresh vegetables may be OBJ
tanned. BY fresh vegetables, is meant
the home grown product. Roasting

sweet potatoes, Irish potatoes, peppers
turnips, okra, tomatoes, and egg pant

are grown here, but which are rot

Home grown apples are seen IN
abundance, and pears have been
plentiful up to the last few days, and
the Keifer, the last pear, is yet to
be marketed.
Almost al other kinds of fruit and
Vegetables may be grown and rad
here in abundance, in season, and 1t
has been truly said that anything can
be grown in Tennessee that can be
grown anywhere else except in tropl-
cal countries. Two good crops Of po-
tatoes can be grown in one season,
and the quality is equal to the best OF
any section of the country.
1t would seem that the variety OF
vegetables and fruits enumerated
above would be almost enough for
ordinary demands, but in addition
to all these the people of Columbia
have the choicest of tropical fruits
from which to make selections. Ba-
nanas are always in market, and the
price is always reasonable. Bananas
of fair size and good quality can often
be bought at 15c a dozen. California
grapes, plums, and other fruits, as well
as oranges from different sections can
be had here when they can be had any
where. The same may be said OF
