needs it more than does; any other city
a1one the line

needs it more than does; any other city
along the line.
The question is just this: Will the
Southern consider such a proposition?
We believe it would, were the towns
along the proposed line to show suffi-
cient interest. The road has already
been graded from within a mile or so
of this place to beyond Troy. And
from here to Anderson the grading
would be of small import compared
with the grading beyond Greenville.
The completion Of the road from
Greenville to Knoxville only means
the connecting of the Knoxville and
Severville road with the Swamp
Rabit," running out of Greenville up
into the mountains.
We think that the matter is worth
considering. Of course we want the
trolley to Anderson, but if We could
o2S a line from kl)xsille, Tenn. to
Edgefeld, S. c., it would be worth in
fnitely more to us.
We believe that people would con-
tribute to such an undertaking much
more freely than they would to any
ether.
Is such a line feasible from the
standpoint Of the Southern road or
from the standpoint of any other
road? it would seem so to US. Why
not ask the Southern whether or not
it would entertain such proposition.
Anderson, Abbeville, Edgefeld, and
smaller places along the line could
raise a sum the aggregate of which
would be worth considering as star
ter
In building from Greenville to
Edgefeld, such a road would cross
three other roads, the Blueridge, the
Seaboard, and the Charleston and
Western Carolina at Troy or McCor-
mick, but the country through which
it would pass is more than ample to
support such a road
If the Southern is in a building hu
NOR, she will receive all the encour-
agement she wishes by making it
known. It might be we'll for the cit
liens of the respective towns interest
ed to take the initiative step.
At least no harm can be done by
talking of the proposition and laying
it before the railroad authorities.

HADDON TO CONDUCT
WORK OF CORN CLUBS
Clemson College Expert Will Take up
Direction of Efforts of Boy Far
merS.

Clemson College, May 6.-The boys
corn club work in South Carolina is
growing rapidly. o. B. Martin, form
er superintendent of education, now
in charge Of boys corn club work in
the United States, was at Clemson
yesucTday, and held some important
conference relative to the work in
South Carolina.
President W. NJ. Riggs has given
out the following, which will be in
teresting ne~s to all concerned in
agriculture:
We have entered into a coopera-
tive relation with the farmers COOP
eratiye demonstration work, by which
c. E. Faddon, now connected with
our extension division, will be ap-
pointed to take charge of the boys
corn clubs in Sout hCarolia and other
similar work. He Will be paid Jointly
by the college and by Mr.. Knapp's or
ganization, and his expenses will be
likewise equally divided between the
two. He will work IN cooperation
with the college and with the DEM =
stration agents, and we expect large
results from this arrangement.
"Heretofore the boys corn club
work has been carried on by Ira VIII
liams, who has handled it in addition
to his regular demonstration work
with the farmers. The arrangement
which we have just perfected IS slmi-
lar to that which exists in North aCr-
olina, Georgia, Alabama and most Of
the other Southern States. It is !
line with DR.. Knapp's policy of car
ing on his work in thorough coopera-
ton and harmony With the agricultur-
al college,"

Dear Sir:
IF the Southern railroad was to re-
ceiva sufficient inducement and help,
they would connect Knoxville, Tenn,
with ~Edgafeld, S. c., through Ander-
son and Abbeville.
J do not see why Abbeville and
E2dgeheId do not join Anderson in this
matter?
Is it not worth While to try?
The effort would, at least show the
world that We are existing.
Yours respectfully,
F.. c.. Meschine.
Mr.. Meschine is always level headed
and the above is another proof of the
fact. From Anderson to Abbeville and
from Abbeville on to Edgefeld, where
the Southern would tap its own line
would be paying proposition for the
Southern road.
The road is going to be built from
Greenville to Knoxville in the neal
future. Anderson wants the same
road. Abbeville wants the same roaG
Edgefield wants the same road anc

last night with his throat cut In his
little home at 2 South street, George
town, where 1t Is believed he had lain
in state of semi-coma for twenty four

The finding of the would-be suicide

had been making for him since Tuesday
night to notify him Of the death of his
father, Timothy Boyle, a carpenter,
sixty-five years old, In the Washington
sylum Hospital.
Police Of the Seventh precinct went To
the house about o'clock Tuesday night,
and failing to get any response to re.
peated rapping on the door, left a note
for young Boyle with the next door
neighbor. Last night Policeman Easley
and Spear went to the house again. The
note had not been delivered. From
neighbors they learned that Boyle had
not been seen since he entered the house
Tuesday afternoon.
Forcing the door the policemen enter
