COMMISSION FOR
CONWAY PLANTS
WATER & LIGHT SYSTEM
TO BE PUT IN CHARGE OF SPE-
CIAL COMMISSION BY CITY
COUNCIL.

For the purpose of insuring perma-
necy in the control of its water works
and electric light system, the city
council last night passed an ordinance
creating a commission of three citi-
Zens to take charge of the electric
light plant and of the waterworks
system when the latter is completed
and accepted by the council. The or
months ago, had been read twice and
last night motion prevailed to place
lit on it's third reading, after which it
was passed by vote of to 2. Mayor
w. H. Duncan and Alderman w. r
Hairston, who voted in the negative,
stated that they favored the plan of
operating the city's plants as provid
ed in the ordinance, but thought it
best not to pass an ordinance relating
to the waterworks system until it had
been formally accepted by the i'm
provement district and delivered to
the council for operation, A proviso,
however, was placed in the ordinance
to the effect that the new commission
shall have no control over the water
works system until it had been accept
ed by the council.
Under the new plan the commission
| is composed of three members, the
term of one of whom will expire each
year, thus always leaving two men,
bers on the commission who are ia
miliar with the details of the system
The ordinance, which is lengthy one
also prescribes the duties of the COM
mission and the superintendent, the
rules and regulations for the plants
and fixes the rates for service. The
measure was drafted last fall by a
special committee of the council, after
careful study of similar ordinances
in a number of Arkansas and Oklaho-
ma towns.
After the passage of the ordinance,
Wellington Robbins for the three-year
term and Frank f. Robins for the two
year term were elected without oppo-
sition, but the vote for the third mem
Der for the one-year term resulted in
tie, Mayor w. H. Duncan and V. d..
Hill, each receiving three votes, and
the council adjourned without filing
this place.
Petitions for new sidewalks in the
Anderson addition and along the west
side of Harkrider street, from Oak to
Mill streets, were received and re-
| ferred to the improvement committee.
Mayor Duncan reported the assess
ment of fines amounting to $21 and
Marshal Clibourn reported collection
o. fines and licenses amounting to $3.50.
Accounts for salaries and street work
amounting to $18S.20 were allowed.

FIVE HUNDRED FIFTY
SHARES BY | O'CLOCK
COMMITTEES CONTINUED WORK
THURSDAY AFTERNOON.
Good Deal More Was Expected to be
Raised Right Away-Subscrip-
ti0ns by Wards.

In the whirlwind campaign conduct
ed on Thursday to raise the capital of
the Newberry county hospital, the re-
ports of the various ward committees
at / O'Clock on Thursday afternoon
showed that five hundred and fifty
shares had been subscribed, making
a total subscription of ffty-fve hun
6red dollars. 1t is desired to raise
fifteen thousand dollars in the city of
Newberry.
The committees were encouraged by
the report, and continued the work on
Thursday afternoon.
The reports by wards at 1 o'clock
showed:
Ward 1-58 shares.
Ward 2-230 shares.
Ward 1866 1-2 shares.
Ward A6S 1-2 shares.
Ward 5-26 shares.
The shares are ten dollars each.
Some of the citizens Of Newberry
who have signifed their intention to
subscribe and who undoubtedly will
subscribe, were not in the city on
Thursday morning, but will be seen
later.
The committees met with a fvaor-
able reception from most of those
whom they saw. The people of small
means especially contributed liberal
ly, in proportion to their ability. There
were some from whom subscriptions
were expected who did not subscribe.
The women of Newberry were active
in their assistance and hearty cooper
alton and encouragement. They fur
nished the workers lunch at the cham
Der of commerce rooms at 1 o'clock,
and sent them out on their afternoons
work with renewed energy. While the
dinner was being served the Woman's
Auxiliary subscribed one share.
The Newberry concert band furnish
ed music during the morning, and this
help on their part aided a great deal
in keeping the spirits of the workers
alive, and was greatly appreciated.
The automobile owners and owners
of other conveyances generously fur
nished their conveyances.
Appropriate badges were provided
for the committees and for the ladies
by the central committee, and Mr.. Jno.
B. Mayes provided the town that does
things" pins. Mr.. Mayes also had a
streamer across Main street.
AS a result of the subscriptions re-
ported by l o'clock and the other sub
scriptions which were in sight to be
secured during the afternoon, and still
others to be secured upon the return
of citizens to Newberry, there is every
reason to feel encouragement.
DR.. A. B. Knowlton, of Knowlton's
Infirmary, Columbia, has donated
new operating table, to be placed in
the hospital as soon as the hospital
is ready for it. A letter was received
from Dr. P. G. Ellesor to this effect,
and at the meeting Of the committees
a rising vote of thanks was extended
DR.. Knowlton.
Newberry can build this hospital,
and there is an evident determination
to put it through.
1t must be remembered that it is a
county affair, and that the county out
side of the city has not as yet been
canvassed at all for subscriptions.

The admixture Of this foreign blood

iunct to American civilization. The
Germans, with their thrifty natures,
were fitted to build, to hold, to have,
and to keep America as the country
of the free. The Irish, with genial
nature that no matter when they bub-
bled with joy Or the effervesence of
champagne, no matter how hard the
task might be. The speech of this
scholar of Newberry college pleased
and gratifed the large audience, who
listened with rapt attention to his re-
marks.

words delivered the diplomas to the
