employed by the Greenville and Co
lumbia railroad to make experiment
tai surveys for extension Of it's road
beyond Greenville into the noun
tains Of North Carolina and the maps
and profiles Of the l.. G. and G. rail
road came to be consulted by me.
The extension beyond Grenville was
wanted to connect with the Flat Rock
country and the valley Of the French
Broad in North Carolina, down to
and beyond Asheville. The Green-
Vile company though this might be
lone by passing the Saluda Noun
tain through what vas known as
Jones Gap, near to Caesars Head on
the north, and thence by descending
the French Broad. My examination
OF Jones' Gap proved 1t to be utterly
impracticable, but the survey con-
tinued In the opposite direction that
Is east Of Caesars Head, on the
southern slopes Of the Saluda Noun
tain, attained the summit at Gap
Creek Gap, with an easy mountain
grade. Once passing the Saluda
Mountain at Gap Creek Gap, the
slopes Of Green River made the road
practicable for the passage around
the base of Butt Mountain, whence
the Flat Rock country and the
French Broad are easily attainable.

lima by the Gap Creek Gap had not
been overlooked by the surveyors of
the l.. G. and G. railroad. They had
made examinations Of it and found it
In point of levels quite satisfactory,
but they did not find the right
ground to support their grade from
the valley Of the Saluda river in
Grenville county up to the Gap Creek
Gap. Their profiles in my hand
proved this and proved while they
had discovered a favorable gap, their
approach to 1T was so unfavorable
as to u them to report against

Greenville.
From this memorandum, it Is ap-
parent that Hayne strove to get to
Asheville, and thence by the French
Broad river northwest to the Ohio
river. See Robert Y. Hayne and
His Times page 486, etc. There
were fundamental differences be-
tween Hayne and Calhoun, which in
1889 (the time of Haynes death
induced not a few people to consider
Hayne somewhat visionary, and as
possessing a less sound intellect than
Calhoun.
Yet time has indicated that
Haynes view was distinctly sounde1
than Calhoun's. For instance, Cal.
houn thought (not u%nnaturally in
1880 that railroads could not be
operated successfully for freight in
conjunction with or as adjuncts tc
water courses. He lacked that i'm.
agination which pierces the veil OF
the future with prophetic ken and
dares to attempt the untried.
Both men realized that the strug.
gle between the North and, South was
on. 1t had been on since 1919.
Apart from commercial and indus
trial purposes, there was in the plan
of each a great political purpose.
Thoir railroad projects were in effect
great strategical. lines; and here
again I think Haynes conception was
the holder and the greater. Hayne
thought hat the region embraced
between the valley of the Ohio river
and the Great Lakes was the coming
center of industrial activity and COM
mercial enterprise. He aimed for
Indiana. Calhoun thought Arkansas

CRESCENT.

Those who have not read the book
of The Goose Girl" which will be
produced in dramatic form at the Cres-
cent Theatre for one week, starting
Sunday, November 10Th, will be inter-
ested in short resume of the play.
The American consul at Dreiberg,
capital of Ehrenstein, is Arthur Car
michael; he is hopelessly in love with
Princess Hildegarde, daughter of the
Grand Duke. The Princess has only
recently been returned by gypsies who
had kept her in bondage for a number
of years. The Regent of Jugendheit
hoping to end a feud between the two
countries proposes marriage between
young King Frederick and the Prin-
cess Hildegarde. The Grand Duke OBJ
jects. to the alliance as he has always
suspected it was the ruler of Jugend-
heK who was instrumental in stealing
the Princess. In the meantime young
King Frederick is masquerading in
Ehrenstein as a young winter and has
fallen in love with Gretchen, the goose
girl, and after many trials, wherein the
Princess befriends Gretchen, it turns
out that a man named Grumbach who
has returned from America recognizes
by the aid of a locket and chain that
Gretchen is really the real Princess,
as he was in the plot with the gypsies
and Count Herbeck, who is the real
father of the Princess Hildegarde, to
substitute one for the other. The
young king marries Gretchen and she
is proclaimed the princess and Hide
garde goes to America with Carmi-
chael and her banished father.
There is a great deal Of comedy in
the play which occurs around the
character of Frau Bauer, the proprie-
tress of the tavern, known as the
Black Eagle, situated in the krumer-
veg, or Crooked Way, in Dreiberg, as

the curtain, has foolish quarrel with
her husband. Each asserts that the
other must take the first step toward
a reconciliation, so Billy, the husband,
leaves his home, and his wife decides
that she will seek solace by devoting
her life to making others happy.
Among her friends are an attractive
young woman and an eccentric Eng
lishman who are almost engaged; &
boy and girl who are almost married
and a young couple who are almost d.
vorced. Della determines to Elk it"
for all of them and proceeds to plan
and direct a campaign that begins en-
couragingly, becomes tempestuous and
finally ends happily. OF course Little
Miss Fix-It" gets back her repentant
husband and the curtain falls amid a
scene of such very general rejoicing as
to indicate that they live happily ever
after"

Walsh, Frederick Santley, Joseph c..

tract multitudes of theatregoers for the
scenes attending the dissolution of
this famous order and the organization
of ignoble limitations are pregnant
with dramatic possibilities. These are
utilized to the fullest extent in The
Traitor" No story of Reconstruction
days can eliminate the relations of
the races in the South but The Trait
or" brings more into prominence the
white man who followed in the foot
steps of Benedict Arnold. In the
South the scallawag and buffalo was
more bitterly hated than was the alien
carpet-bagger. While these types as
presented in the play are interesting,
the chief interest centers in the Per-
feet specimens of Southern manhood
and womanhood portrayed. One of
the best characters in "The Traitor"
is that of a rough, uncouth, but true
and loyal mountaineer.
The scenic settings in which the
action of this play is developed are
more elaborate and beautiful than any
utilized heretofore for any play of the
South for the scenes are laid in that
section of the country that has be-
come known by the poetic appellation
of THE land of the sky" probably the
most picturesque spot in the United
States. The usual matinees will be
given on Tuesday, Thursday and Sat.
urday.

she is supposed to be well-to-do, she
is much sought after, hence some good
comedy situations have been intro
duced by the dramatist.
Those who have read the novel will
be charmed by the way Mr.. Baker has
so faithfully followed the authors
story. All who witness this charming
romantic play will be pleased at the
beautiful production which has been
made by Baker and Castle, as they
have tried by every means to make
this one of the standard attractions OF

TULANE E.

Not only New York and Chicago
have been captivated by Geo. NJ. Co
hans comedy, "Get-Rich-Quick Wal
lingford," but the few cities that have
already been visited since the close of
the Chicago run of solid year, have
gone on record as declaring this COM
edy the best bit Of American stage
humor ever Aresented. This proves
that the appeal of the play is uni
versal and not local Detroit and Mil
waukee have seen the play since it
left Chicago, and the newspaper criti-
cisms and attendance bear witness to
the fact that no play of recent years
has made such popularity favorable
impression. The Detroit Free Press
thus comments on the play: ut is that
Cohan brand of stage architecture and
action that furnishes rare enjoyment
every minute--he has succeeded in de-
livering a wholesome sermon without
any tiresome preachments. Indeed,
so swift is the action that the only
fear of WEAKNESS lies in excessive
laughter. The piece easily takes rank
with the best comedies of the present
day."

THE APPROACH OF WINTER.

There are some persons in every com
munity. who appear to think that win
ter is never coming, and consequently
make no preparation tor it. No mat
ter how long the fall season may be ex-
tended the freeze-up finds them with
out preparation.
On the farm the corn remains IN
husked. or if husked. the fodder is still
out in the field. The snow storm comes
and finds the cattle unprotected and
without shelter Farming implements
which were used during the summer
and fall are left scattered all over the
farm exposed to the weather, and going
20 pieces as rapidly as weather condi-
tions can carry them. And this is the
farmer who wonders why he cannot get
along. Would it not be a marvel it,,
under such circumstances he could
make a success Of farming?
We are glad to believe that there are
few such farmers in this county.
But there are a few. and they serve as
an object lesson to the better farmers
about them. Even the best farmers
can possibly do better. That is the
aim in all kinds of business. it being a
universal law. that perfection only
comes with intelligent perseverance.
IL always pays the Farmer to have
his stock comfortably housed in cold
weather apart from proper feelings for
the dumb beasts. 1t requires less food
for them. and they will thrive better
than when left unsheltered. The
farm implements should be put in the
dry. as soon as their use is over.
Nothing pays better than the proper
care of costly machinery.
Depend upon it the winter will come
with ice and SHOWS. The wise antici-
pate its coming and prepare for it
