Before the season is well open, cot
ton gin fatalities are being announced,
the first victim in this state being from
Barnwell. Will people never learn
that there is danger and death in the
saws of gin, and that they will merci-
lessly shred human flesh, as well as re-
move the delicate fibre from cotton
seed? Those who operate gins should
profit by the unfortunate experience OF
of those who have been injured.

Several cotton mills of the Piedmont

how important a part water plays in

NO RUSH FOR THE
LOWER UPPER ONES
Reduction in Second Story
Sleepers Fails to Catch
Travellers

The old adage about the horse and
the water applies with force to the
Pullman car upper and lower berth
problem in the railroads running out
OF FL Paso. When the reduction of. 20
percent was announced for all upper
berths. it was expected that there
would be a rush of people asking for
the uppers which were lower
There has been but one request at
the city offices of the railroad lines
for the cheaper upper berths Every
one continues to want a lower, near
the dressing room. that is not over
tie wheels and continue to be much
disappointed if the lower is not forth
coming.
The upper berth reduction has COM
plicated instead of simplifying, the
work Of the already overworked ticket
agents. Before the reduction became
effective, the travelling public would
reluctantly accept an upper as a part
of the i'll luck that was coming in the
particular direction of the particular
person Not so now. There is one
long howl and an accompanying kick
like unto the one that bossy uses to
kick over the milk pail when an upper
IS suggested Various reasons are
given for not wanting an upper. The
real reason is known, although seldom
admitted, that riding in an upper is
an admission that one is cutting down
expenses-in short. is short, cheap.
Hence the kick.
There are other complications con-
nected with the reduced upper berth
business. Before it became effective
the ticket man had only to segregate
his Pullman tickets as TO destinations.
Now it is necessary to separate the
lowers from the uppers and keep the
accounts separate The agents say
that little 20 percent reduction has
proved to be 20 percent increase in
the amount Of their work without any
apparent benefit to that part of the
travelling public which uses the towels
to shine its shoes and totes, the comb
and brush home for a souvenir.
