is to go. The city has heard this statement made a number of times before but there seems to be no room for incredulity in this case, since fnc information comes from the highest transit official in the city. It is not so many years since these horse drawn cars bumped about in the heart of the financial district to say noth- ing of other parts of the city. One by one, however, they were replaced until there remained only two cross town lines, and that one known as the belt line which pretty well encircled the whole of Manhattan Recently the crosstown lines put on storage battery cars and now last of all the old horse drawn cars are to disap- pear from the belt line In many ways this line is unique, being un- doubtedly the longest horse car line in the country. Whether any pas sengers ever made in one of the cars land is not known, but it seems doubtful since such d trip it is said would consume more time than it now takes to go from New York to Washington by fast train. Probably the only persons to regret the pass
 ing of the horse in this connection are the drivers and conductors who as the result of long service still regard trol- 1 ley cars and subways merely as new ] fangled innovations in the field of rapid transit.

 who have intercepted the flight of the "gutty'' with various portions of their anatomy have for years consiI cred it a deadly weapon. But i'll these cases it was merely a missile and not inherently dangerous. Now, however, it has been discovered that the golf ball must also be classed as an explosive. This unexpected state of affairs was brought to light here because Of the curiosity of a golfer to discover what sort of a liquid cen ter the bah with which he had been playing contained. As the easiest manner of finding out he was pro ceeding to vivisect it with his pocket knife when il suddenly exploded, the liquid center entering one of his eyes. As a result, it is feared that he may lose his sight although this will not be known until he emerges from the dark room to which the accident will confine him for several weeks. Just what the liquid center of the bali which caused it to burst consisted Of no one seems to know although tie effect was that of an acid Of caustic which burned the eye in question. Whether golfers carrying a half dozen balls through the city streets will be arrested under the concealed weapon law remains to be seen, but now that they have entered the category of eX- plosives the game may take on a new feature of sportness.

That the fourth of July in this cit,- so far as the old-fashioned noisy and dangerous celebration is concerned is practically at an end is indicated bv the fact that with the day still more than two months away steps are all ready being taken to make it even more safe and sane this year than last year Indeed it is apparent that so far as New York is concerned the old time jubilee of toy cannon, fire crackers and other explosive rockets with the concomitant list of deaths. missing fingers and general mutila- tion of the celebrators, to say noth- ing of the destruction of property has become a thing of the past While this may cause woe to a large number of youngsters, the new celebration with games, displays Of fireworks in charge of competent operators and other forms of entertainment for young America are calculated no. only to keep the spirit of 76 alive but also to work a valuable conservation of Father knickerboCker's growing citizens.

CHlCORA COLLEGE
NOT ON The BLOCK


"Chicora College is not on the
block; it will not go to the highest
bidder" said President S. C. Byrd
yesterday in commenting on long
distance telephone calls which he
has received from distant points in
regard to the proposed removal OF the
institution from Greenville to I.au-
rens.
One OF the parties calling over the
long distance phone was from dis
tant city and he wanted to know II
$4,000 and building site was all
the trustees asked for the college.
III that is all he stated, his city
would. certainly go beyond Laurens'
oner, and would make as good an
Offer as any town In the State. 1t
was then that DIR. Byrd stated thot
Chicora College was not on the
block, and would not go to the high
est bidder.

that China had to have. lean,3
and would need to come around
to their terms in the end.
But the Standard Oil outfit
was busy. They still had a good
grip on Sun Vat Sen, and they
stirred him up and sent him to
Pekin to tell Yuan he could get a
little cash at easy rates from the
Standard Oil people-if he'd
grant them big oil concessions.
There was a lot of big war
talk, and then Yuan came
through. He borrowed $50,000,-
600 from A. Wendell Jackson, an
American, now practically identi-
fed with Standard Oil, and the
Morgan influence began to wane.
Evidently the Morgan and
Standard Oil crowds are bent on
splitting up China between them,

When Sun Vat Sen was pro-

was the whole cheese.
AS soon as Yuan had his gov

need money. He applied to the

The Morgan outfit said sure
they'd loan him money-at about
II per cent, and on condition
China's taxing machinery was
handed over to them.
When the Chinese people heard
about this deal they were so mad
they couldn't see straight and
Yuan was afraid to put it over.
