The contest in the good roads bond
election case will come up Monday
before the State Board Of Canyassers
for hearing and consideration. when
they will deliver their opinion as to
whether or not the election is or is
not legal.
Ihere has been no hearing OF the
matter up to this time because of the
fact that most Of the State officials
nave been away from Columbia on
fheir annual vacations and it was
impossible TO get the board togeth-
er for hearing, but now with the
coming Of fall these gentlemen are
returning to Columbia and Monday
has accordingly been appointed as the
day for the hearing.
The contest followed the action Of
the county commissioners Of elec-
ton in throwing out the Mayesyille
box and declaring the election in ia
vor of the bond issue. Mr.. w. b.
Boyle who headed the opposition 10

ment in contesting the election. 1t
is understood that Mr.. L. D. JENNINGS

YELLOW LETTER DAY.
Retail Merchants Association Begins
Active Campaign.

VC S01Apoi8h
September 1st 10 the date set by
the Retail Association for sending
out the first batch Of yellow let
ters- These letters are Of a beau
tiful orange yellow color and can be
easily distinguished at a distance or
rec o0gnized at a glance. The recip-
lent will readily understand the ma
ture Of this correspondence, SO will
the mail man and others who may
perchance be in the neighborhood.
1t will be very difficult TO dodge the
yellow-oran letter.
These yellow-orange letters are not
especially dangerous. Uncle Sam has
issued no order against them on this
account. They contain neither dyna-
mite nor poison. In way they are
perfectly harmless. are these letters
In fact they are very mild in tone
especially these first ones to be mail
ed September 1st. They are notices
to delinquent debtors that unless
these long outstanding accounts are
not adjusted within ten days from
date. the merchant must perforce
report the condition Of this account
to the Credit Bureau. What then +?
Simply that the condition Of this ac-
count Is open to all the other met
chants and this debtor is carried on
the credit list as these circumstances
warrant Moreover, the yellow let
ters keep coming until this account
is settled and the delinquent has
squared himself with the merchants.
The Credit Bureau will give in
stantaneous reports to merchants on
any prospective customer as to his
credit standing and paying qualities.
A complete card system has been ar
ranged by the bureau which will
contain some 10000 names Of custo-
mers throughout Sumter's entire
trade territory and which will show
the credit rating Of each person,
based on his past dealings and
promptness in the payment Of his
debts.
This system has now been adopted
generally by the Retail Associations
throughout the country and is inter-
changeable. In other words II John
Smith leaves Sumter and locates In
another city he finds that his debts
have followed him and also his
credit standing. So that should he
refuse TO pay his Sumter debts, he
will find I just az difficult TO secure
credit in his new home. The same is
true of persons from other cities To-
eating in Sumter.
In other words a customer who
Mas been prompt in the payment OF
his accounts or has shown dispo-
5ition to meet and adjust his debts,
VIII haNo no difficulty I'm securing
ready credit anywhere. ON the 9TH
er hand, the person who refuses 10
pay his just debts and makes no hon
est attempt TO square himself With
the merchant will find Il extremely
difficult To secure credit at any time
or place.

SUMTER. s. G., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1a1,
SAVED BY WIRELESS
passengers From Wrecked Licking
ton Taken into Port.

Charleston. Aug. 3O.-Twelye mas.
sengers "a steward and three colored
employees Of the steamer Lexington of
the Miners and Merchants line were
brought here early today by the reve-
nue. cutter Yaroacraw, which left the
captain and crew Of 43 men on
board. Two firemen are reported TO
nave been burned to death and a
third terribly scalded. First Ohic
Chamberlain sustained a fractur v
his right shoulder. The steam.
her nose imbeded in quicksand off
Hunting Island, at the mouth OF
theEdisto river, and it is said that
she will be total loss.
The Lexington was bound from
Savannah to Philadelphia, with IL
passengers, all Of whom were res
cued. For "a hours the steamship
battied desperately against the hur-
ricane, finally being driven aground,
where the tremendous waves smash
ed violently against her and where
the powerful wind tossed her about
in the mud. Three times was she
covered with water, the pumps ex-
pelling enough to clear the upper
portions and float the stern.
But for the heriosm Of Wireless
Operator Scheetze there would have
been no chance Of rescue. The storm
wrecked the boats wireless station,
but Scheetz climbed into the rigging
and adjusted his instruments, fash
ing the calls for immediate assist
ance.
The signals were caught by the
Yamacraw. which hastened to Hunt
Ing Island. Scheetz, 16-year-old
boy. was in imminent peril Of his life
while operating the wireless. the wind
almost tearing him from his insecure
position. The lad was utterly ex-
hausted by his desperate work.
