IMPROVEMENTS AT
LOCAL LAUNDRY.
New Ironing Machine and New
b.. Tubs are Installed.

The Abbeville laundry has recently
installed some new and up-to-date
machinery, of which Mr.. j.. M. Dan
iels, Jr.,. the superintendent, is very
proud. ...n 10 49,.
One of the machines is collar
ironer Of the most approved pattern,
which can, if necessary, iron as many
as eight or ten thousand collars a
day. The machine is so constructed as
to minimize the wear and tear in
ironing and gives the neckwear a
finish practically as good as that or
a new collar. This Is the second lar
gest machine of it's kind in the State
and gives the local laundry an equip
ment more than ample to care for It's
patrons. ,"t.. -.
In addition to this collar machine,
the laundry has just installed two
large tubs of late. pattern. These
tubs are made with brass cylinders,
which are so constructed as to pre-
vent the contents being caught In
worn places and torn while the in
ner portion of the tub rotates, which
was sometimes the case with the old
fashioned tubs with wooden cylinders:
The laundry is now better equipped
than ever to serve the needs OF the
community.

CITY BUYS new
fire APPARATUS.
Combination Hose Wagon Con-
tracted For.
Department Beginning to Get
in Shape for Tournament in
Spring-Mr. Elgin Chief.

At a recent meeting of City Council
the committee on fire department,
which consists Of Messrs. G.. A. Halg-
ler, J. M. Lawton and NJ. B. Syfan, was
authorized to purchase new hose
wagon for the department. In accord
ance with this authority, the commit
tee, after going over the matter care
fully, placed the contract last week
with the Seagrave Company of Co.
lumbus, Ohio, for combination wag-
on that will prove ample for the needs
of the city. The matter OF complete
specifications was left in the hands OF
Mayor Gambrell and Chief Elgin.
The contract for the new apparatus
calls for a tWo-horSe wagon, car
rying a chemical eXtinguisher, three
ladders-one extension, one roof and
one wall ladder-and having a ca
pacity of from 700 to 1000 feet OF
hose. The wagon is badly needed by
the fire fighters.
AS will be remembered, the State
Fireman's Tournament will be held in
Abbeville next spring, and the boys
here are beginning to get things IN
such shape that they will be able to
make a creditable showing when that
time comes.
Mr.. J. V. Elgin was recently elected
chief of the department and he has
undertaken the work with much en-
thusiasm. If he receives the cordial
support of the community, AbbeVille
will no doubt have one Of the most
efficient amateur fire-ighting organl-
cations in the State.

"It's all buncombe and foolishness

make any inroads they will simply be
the laughing stock of the nation"
The governor said: 81 am not re-

write. When l want to say or write

well KNOW"
Governor Blease said he hoped to

CROWDS EXPECTED FROM ELSEWHERE
Spectacular AerOplane Flights to
Be Feature-Exhibits Will
Be Good.

The outlook now indicates that
there will be larger attendance at
the Abbeville Fair than was ever
present at this historic institution.
Greenwood is not holding a fair
this year owing to the fact that they
have not yet completed arrange
ments for suitable grounds. Anderson
also is without a fair this year.
The officials of the Fair have en-
deavored to organize the 1912 Fair so
as to please every conner. In addition
to the 1S exhibits, which promise to
be unsurpassed, arrangements have
been made to have on hand a midway,
which appeals to many people. A
contract has been signed with Thorn
we'll Andrews, the famous Air Man, to
make two flights daily. The contract
calls for flights or no pay.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY IS
EXHIBITING AT FAIRS
Resources of South Being Advertised
in North, West and Canada

Washington, D. c., Oct. 9.-The
Southern Railway System is making
exhibits of horticultural and agricul-
tural products Of the Southeast at
eighteen fairs which are being held
this fall in Alabama, Mississippi,
Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina,
South Carolina and Virginia. These
are entirely educational in their char
acter and represent what the South
arn farmer by intelligent effort can
produce on his own land. Expert ag-
are in charge to dis
'seminate helpful information and it
is hoped that the thousands of farm
ers who will be in attendance will be
inspired to adopt methods promoting
better and more profitable crops.
These exhibits will be made at the
following points: Demopolis, Ala;
Birmingham, Ala; Tuscaloosa, Ala;
Montgomery, Ala; Selma, Ala; Me-
ridian, Miss; Jackson, Miss; Morris
town, Tenn; Sweetwater, Tenn;
Bolton, s. c.; Spartanburg, s. c.;
Orangeburg, S. c.; Asheville, N. C.;
Greensboro, N. c.; Chase City, Va;
Danville, Va; South Boston, Va; and
Griffin, Ca Arrangements have been
made by the Southern Railway COM
pany to conduct at several or the
fairs demonstrations in domestic
science, dairying, caring for dairy
products, and packing of fruits.
The Southern Railway company is
not confining its exhibit work to the
South, but is making exhibits at more
than twenty-five fairs and exposltlons
in the North, West and Canada, thus
exploiting the advantages and oppor-
tunities of this section before thous-
ands of farmers of the tpye needed by
the South al settlers.

ASSASSINATION OF:
teddy ATTEMPTED

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. l4.-Coi'
Roosevelt was shot in the breast by
an assassin as he entered the auto
mobile in front Of the Hotel Gl!pat-
rick to start for an AUDITORIUM
where he was speaking tonight. he
insisted on going to, the hall, there
quieted the crowd that heard ne hao
been shot, spoke from S:20 until 9:4o
o'clock, though apparently weak, and
then was taken to an emergency nos
pital.
The X-ray of Col. Roosevelt's
wound showed that the bullet lodged
in the chest wall and did not pene-
trate the lung. The wound is not con-
sidered serious. :,
The bullet struck manuscript OF
the speech which he delivered tonight,
and this probably saved his life.
After an hours questioning the as
sassin gave his name as John SchranK
of $40 east Tenth street, New YORK.
From notes found in the prisoners
pockets it is evident that he is de-
mented on the subject OF the colonels
seeking a third term.
Col. Roosevelt left the hospital at
11:25 D. m. He was able to walk
unassisted
IL am feeling fine," he said.
II was decided to take Col. Roose-
yelt to Chicago, where four surgeons
would attempt to extract the bullet.
The colonel was taken to the station
where, at the last moment a change
was made and the engineer was or
dered to hold the train. Later, now
ever, the original plan was revived,
and the train bearing Col. Roosevelt
left fer Chicago at midnight.
Col. Roosevelt at the railway sta
ton insisted that he was "teellng
fine" and that no one should worry
about him.
"I wanted to get down to the train
25 minutes before we left" he SAID,
80 that could shave"
The positive statement that Col.
Roosevelt was not injured seriously
was made by DR.. Frederick A. STRAIT
ton of Milwaukee, one OF the physl-
clans who examined the colonel. Dr.
Stratton said that there was no
cause for alarm as to the colonels
condition. >,
"The wound was a superficial one,'
safd DR.. Stratton. 1.-THE bullet is i'm
bedded in the muscular tissues. All
that we did at the hospital was TO put
on an antiseptic dressing:
"You may say Col. Roosevelt Is
not in a dangerous condition. II the
bullet had reached his lungs 1t would
have been evident and he would have
had coughing spells"

and posters Of artistic design and exc
cution, printed in eight colors, will be

together with the marvellous attrac-
tions incident upon crowded Streets
carnivals, gala days and other pleas
ures of social nature. With the State
Legislature in session, South Caro-
linians will be offered an exceptional
opportunity to see their State govern
ment in operation.
In connection with the round-trip
rates offered from many parts OF the
nation to Columbia on account OF the
Exposition, the railroads will also put
on low rates from Columbia to points
in the. State and return. These rates
have been made the occasion Tor the
of homecoming week
by many cities and towns OF the State
in connection with the Exposition,
which opens January 9th. Visitors

friends in the death of their little boy,
Franklin, aged about five years. The
child died Wednesday, October 9, 1912,
