The towns OF Norway Springfield,
Sawyerdale, Neeses, Livingston,

progress that the towns in Orange

tion Of business houses and dwellings
and in growth cannot but attract the
travellers eye.
A prosperous atmosphere, prevails
and the farmers homes are up-to-
date. The old farm houses are con-
spicuous only by their absence and
what are left are now being displaced
by painted modern homes, equipped
with conveniences Of this day.
The rural free delivery and rural
telephones have been great factors
in making country lille pleasant and
attractive in Oranget drg county. The
roads of the county are in better con-
dition, as whole, than ever before,
modern methods of road building
being adopted.
Building activity is especially no.
ticeable in the towns of Norway,
Springfield, North, Bowman and Hol-
ly Hill. At Norway H. B Fulmer is
having large, two-story brick build
ing constructed, which will have two
store rooms, one to ibe occupied by
one of the Norway banks. B B.
Williams has a two-story brick build
Ing in course of erection. G. F Glib
son is building a brick store for his
general merchandise business. Will
liams Brothers have erected large
ginnery at Norway The Bank Of
Norway has increased its capital
stock to $4,000. Several residences
are being built. -.
At North, DR.. T A. Jones is erect
ing a two story-brick building The
Johnson company have erected a
large store building. There are a
number of stores just erected and
some are in the course Of erection IN
the business district that was burn
ed many months ago. There are
about five other store buildings that
have been recently constructed.
Holly Hill is pushing forward rap
idly and much building construction
is going on there. R. F. Way Is nav
ing a two-story brick building erect
ed, the first floor to contain two
stores, while the second floor Will be
fitted for hotel purposes. Mr.
Horres is having two stores erected
on Main street. Dr.. Wells and Mr.
Hart are having pretty homes built
The Methodists and Baptists of Hol-
" Hill now worship in their new
churches.
The AGRICULTURAL condition OF the
county is good and encouraging de-
spite the weather conditions of the
year. The continued drought has
worked havoc in some sections OF
the county, but the farmers will gen.
orally make enough to do them, while
the cotton crop as whole, is one OF
the best ever raised in this county
The cotton is opening fast and the
farmers are busy making prepara-
tions for the gathering and ginning OF

had conf litted the crime
A reporter for The News ana
Courier interviewed Glover at the
Jail and tound the negro very ready
to tell what he alleged to be the
truth. Glover is a young man, a.
bout eig teen or twenty years old,
according to his own statement. He
is dark and not rough looking. His
face is not unpleasant In reply to
numerous questions asked by the re-
porter Clover told Of being brought
here about as follows:
About 8 o'clock yesterday after
noon, he said, Sheriff Owens entered
his cell aid took him out, telling
him that he was to be taken away
from St. George. Glover said he
was told by Sheriff Owens that the
latter was taking him away because
he was afraid that Glover might be
taken OFT of the jail and personal
violence done to him The Sheriff,
accordinp to Glover, said that he
could no. take the latter to Colum-
bia, beca Use they would probably be
headed OF and that the ouly thing to
do woult be to go to Charleston.
Insteal of heading straight for
Charleston with Glover, Sheriff Ow-
ems, the negro sad, went about
twelve miles outside Of St. George,
following: various paths and then cir
cled bac.;, coming to the railroad at
Birds Station, four miles east Of st,
George. There he took the train
and brought his prisoner to this city.
Glover then said that he was not a
native O. St. George, but was origi-
nally from Williston. He had been
living in St. George less than year
having gone there last winter and
married there in January. Asked
where the house of the lady who is
the victi N of the crime is situated IN
reference to his own, Glover answer
ed that the lady's house was about
half a n lie from his own and that 1t
was OF the other side Of the center

BIG CIRCUS COMING HERE.

Earth Booked for Early Appearance.
The Barnum and Bailey Greatest
Show on Earth will visit Marshalltown
on Saturday. July Is, giving two per-
formances at the usual hour and once
more presenting street parade in the
forenoon. The equipment Of the show
Is all new 1t was built at cost Of
s2.5OO.o00. The program viii be given
by 400 perform ers. Most of them are
from Europe and are making their
first tour Of America.
There is no question as to the SUI
perioritv of this show. For fifty-tiv
years it has set pace that no other
circus has been able to follow. There
IS no country on earth where it is not
as we'll known as IN America. There is
not a city of size in the United States.
Canada. Europe or Asia where ct some
time il has not pitched its fourteen
acres Of tents. Nobility has applauded
1t. Oriental kings and potentates have
admired It. The peasantry has found
delight IN its appearance. The world
has long recognized it as the head OF
all amusement affairs.
The management has agents in all
the large cities of the earth. They are
constantly searching for novelties and
curios They keep in touch with the
foremost talent Of the earth and keep
the circus supplied with fresh acts and
new sensations. 1t is the only circus
in the world that has its own animal
traDpers and jungle hunters. BY its
enterprise in this respect it has been
the first to attract scientists by it's up
to date menagerie.
40 sooner does a novelty present it
self in the audience rooms and arenas
Of the old world than an agent secures
IL for exploitation in America. These
alert men are always first on the scene.
They were unusually fortunate last
winter in their selections as visitors
will see when they sit on the grand
stands and view the endless stream Of
talent pouring thru the curtained doors
Of the dressing arena. A few sensa-
tional importatiOns are the Fonelli fam
lily of Italian acrobats. the Les Deko
and Les Slvas family of equilibrists,
John Ducander's bell-ringing horses
and Charlie the First, a chimpanzee
bicycle rider and roller skater

rings, on two stages. on a Roman race

good hair. These blessings, so essen

effective remedial agents. Cuticura

tree not to be computed by its timber
or its fruit.
While the great value of forests as
regards their timber product. as well
as their aid in the conservation of
rainfall, has been thoroughly estab.
hshed, there is opportunity for more
lessons in the value Of urban shade
trees. Communities nowadays are
taking great pride in their shade
trees, approaching the fact that their
shade adds to the comfort of living
especially in summer time, and thus
contributes to the value of homes and
OF real estate in general. Here in
Washington these shade trees are one
Of the city's assets, perhaps appre
ciated more by the newcomer or yisi
tor than by the resident who has been
long accustomed to them. The trees
which we have should be carefully
conserved, and at every opportunity
more trees should be planted. The

regarded as a public institution, fac

BOUNDARIES FOR THE PARK
No Good Reason Why Straight Lines
of Government Survey Should
Be Followed.

The determination of the bound
aries Of park is often very intimate
ly related to radical questions of de-
sign. The boundaries adopted for a
park are often the boundaries used by
the previous private owners. and in
the west almost all such boundaries
are the straight lines of the original
government land surveys or Of sub
divisions based upon them and which
are generally purely arbitrary rec
tangular boundaries bearing no har-
monious relation with the topography
except in the few cases where the
land is fat. Such arbitrary rectangu-
lar boundaries are often hideous mis-
| fits with respect to the local topog-
raphy. particularly if, as is often the
| case, the site has been selected for
mark because of it's strongly-marked
Topography. Such arbitrary boundaries
are also sometimes badly out Of &C.
cord with certain requirements OF a
good design for the improvement OF
/ the particular ground in question IN
these hard boundary lines there Is a
fine chance for skiIlful planting, so
that roads doubling back from the
line should not too closely approach
tbe actual boundary. 1t should appear
| that traffic can go no farther straight
ahead by reason OF encountertng the
edqe of a forest. So planted the
mark may be made to appear many
