Comment on Gambler Move.

1
| Asa G. Gambler has chosen wisely
IN his New York and Atlanta invest
| ments, thinks a writer in The New
York Times. Mr.. Gambler is com
| pared with Frank w Woolworth. the
capitalist, as follows:
The prejudice which financial in
situations and corporations have held
against real estate inyc stments for
many years is dying out. More and
more we find conservative banking in
sututions handling real estate secIIri-
ties' Ihey are beginning to realize
the soundness OF an investment which
has from time immemorial been the
bedrock foundation of savings bank
strength. We find individuals of
wealth like Frank w Woolworth and
asa G. Gambler putting into improved
real estate profits earned in merchan-
disc ia II
The latter illustrates the trend Of
the time by building in both Atlanta
ana New York. We find corporations
hke the United Cigar Stores buyin0
me property. where It can, on which
tnelr stores stand. We see the New
YORK Central Railroad building not
only a railroad terminal but income
producing Office buildings.
Real estate is coming into IT'S nun,
because wealthy and conservative
men and corporations are investing in
H. and they are investing only where
iacts ana hgures prove that a profit
Is TO be paid on the money expended.
Real estate is not bought and soId
dwelling and office buildings are moi
erected in the haphazard way that
obtained not so many years since.
That very definition of real estate
mas changed. We used to think of IL
as a lot, bare ground. The Wool
worth Building is real estate: 40 is
the Metropolitan Tower; so IA the
Verona apartment house. Before the
Woolworth Building was erected its
owner Knew how many persons pass
ed It's portals in the course of a dRy.
He knew, so far as could be
known. the number of vacancies in
the downtown office buildings. He
studied downtown land values and
rental values. he studied the trend OF
occupancy in the various trades and
professions. he studied the service
given tenants by other office build
ings"

double car track affords splendid car serv-

You know there is only one Grant Park and

times are hard and money is scarce and do not

that they will have to make the best possible

AMERICAN SOLDIERS KILL
FOUR MEXICAN REGULARS

Four dead Mexican soldiers
and an unknown number of
wounded were taken to Aqua
Prieta Monday from the point
on the international border five
miles from Douglas, Ariz., where
two troops of the ninth United
States cavalry fought a thirty
minute battle with Mexican
regulars Sunday. More than
two thousand shots were fired
by the American troopers and it
is estimated that fully as many
were fired by the Mexicans.
None of the Americans were hit.
Neither side crossed the line.
Colonel Gilfoyle, commanding
the ninth cavalry, said Monday
he did not anticipate further
trouble. AS a precaution, how
ever, the usual border patrol of
the ninth cavalry was incresed
Monday morning.
General Ojeda, Mexican COM
mander at Aqua Prieta, claimed
that the American troops fired
first. This was denied by United
States army officers. Lieutenant
Nicholson in command of the Is
who first engaged the Mexicans,
and Captain Armstrong, who
commanded troops E and F,
when they came to the relief of
the patrol, said that a volley
came from the Mexican side be-
lore the Americans fired.

AN APPEAL TO MOTHERS
A Duty The Mother Owes to
Her Child and to Herself
And to Her Family.

In these days of star-shooting;
the days when all kinds of re-
forms are being handed to the
parents, the mother feels that she
has great responsibilities. And
she has. She must not only bear
and rear and nurse and love and
often lose her offspring but she
must ever keep her ear to the
ground to know what evil may
befall the loved one. This IS
not patent medicine advertise
ment. 1t is the relation of a
fact. Pneumonia and mumps,
and scarlet fever and measles
come along and all the ills that
childhood is heir to-and the
doctor is called in, and generally
he pulls the hopeful through.
But it is generally understood
these times that all the diseases
that rob homes of little ones
Group and Pneumonia are the
most insidious. They battle the
skill of physicians, often, posi-
bly, the physician is not called
in time. This is why every home
should be supplied with a bottle
of Gowans Preparation. the Gel
ebrated and marvellous remedy
for Pneumonia and Group Colds
applied externally and never
failing to relieve the sufferer.
Buy a bottle today; try it and
you wi! thank your stars that
your eyes were directed to this
article. All druggists handle it.

afternoon and evening-will open
with the assembling upon the
castle green of Lord Leicester's s
household and the peasant folk
from the vicinity of Kenilworth.
Upon the queens arrival she will

reels, Mosques. pantomimes,
Morris dances, and performing
animals. In the evening the
great Robin Hood drama. Sher-
wood. by Alfred Noyes, will be
presented before her majesty.
1t is expected that special
trains will be run from all neigh
boring towns.

PASSES WEBB LIQUOR BILL
over PRESIDENTS VETO

BY q vote of 244 to 95 the
national House of Representa-
tives Saturday repassed over
President Taft's veto the Webb
bill prohibiting shipments of
intoxicating liquors into dry
States" The Senate passed it
over the veto Friday night and
the bill now becomes law. Only
one other time in the last Is
years has Congress overridden
a Presidents veto. That was
when the Rayney River dam bill
was passed over President Roose-
velt's disapproval.
President Taft based his veto
almost entirely upon the ground
that the bill is unconstitutional,
in that it virtually delegated to
the States control of interstate
traffic in liquor, when he held
that control was vested solely in
Congress. Attorney General
Wickersham had given an opinion
also holding the bill unconstitu-
tional and that the President
forward to the Senate Friday
with his veto message.
The Senate repassed the bill
promptly Friday night and early
Saturday House leaders favoring
the measure led by Representa-
tive Clayton, chairman of the
judiciary committee, and Repre-
sentative Webb, one of it's
framers,' began working for an
immediate repaSSage.
Debate was limited and the
House repassed the bill with a
wide margin over the necessary
two-thirds vote, as the Senate
had done.
Supporters of the bill say it
will make effective the pro-
hibition laws of dry States"
which they say now are violated
because intoxicants are shipped
in to private individuals and
have the effect of multiplying
local laws.

The "Silver Tea" Pleased All.

A larry good crowd attended
the Silver Tea" given in the
auditorium Thursday evening by
the ladies of the local chapter
D. A. R. and the Good Times
Glee club, and all were highly
pleased with the evenings enter
tainment. The D. A. r. and
the members of the glee club
opened the programme by march
ing into the auditorium and upon
the stage, singing America. "
Each one was dressed in full
colonial costume, and the effect
was quite pleasing. Probably
the most enjoyable part of the
programme was the singing
school" with w. B. Audrey taking
the part of singing master.
Other numbers of the pro-
gramme especially pleasing were:
Angel Serenade." an instru-
mental trio by Miss Kittie Kirk
patrick, w. F. Boyd and F. E.
Ardrey; Morn Rise" vocal
duet by Mrs. E. M. Belk and
Miss Elizabeth Minis; Good
Night, Little Girl" solo by Mrs.
E. S. Reid, and Who Knows"
solo by Mrs. James Fulp.
Upon the conclusion of the
musical programme, the guests
were regaled with light refresh
ments in the east reception room,
served by the members of the
D. A. R. After this w. B.
Ardrey called the figures" for
an old-fashioned square dance.
This was enjoyed till late hour.

Conditions at COME derate Home

Some startling revelations of
conditions at the State Soldiers
Home, near Columbia, have been
brought to light by the Joint
committee appointed by the
legislature to investigate charges
OF mismanagement and improper
conduct on the part of the of
ficers of the Home. The COM
mittee made it's report to the
Senate Friday and sustained a
number of the charges.
The committee holds that
drunkenness is very common
among the inmates of the home
and recommends that strictest
discipline be enforced to remedy
this practice. The committee
sustains the charge that officers
use partiality in their dealings
with the veterans and suggests
a reduction of salary of certain
officers and the amalgamation
of other Offices.
That the sick inmates are not
properly nursed, and that the
home is in an unsanitary con-
ditlon, are other allegations
which the committee sustains
from the evidence submitted.
The report was received as in
formation and ordered printed

Cannon Buys York Mill.

The York Cotton Mill property,
on the outskirts of Yorkville,
was sold from the court house
steps Friday at noon to j. F..
Cannon of Concord, N. c., for
$160, 900, the upset price. Mr..
Cannon was the only bidder.
The understanding is that the
mill is to be owned by J. F..
Cannon and his father. j. w.
Cannon, and will be operated by
them in connection with the Is
or 20 other mills that they al
ready own or control.
The plant is one of the largest
in the county and it is believed
that, in the hands of these ex-
perienced and successful business
men, it will prove a money
maker. The price at which the
property sold, so it is said, covers
the Indebtedness of the corpora
ton.

Tillman Talks of Railroad Law.

In speaking of the proposed
railroad bill now before ale
South Carolina Legislaturenr SEN
ator B. R. Tillman is endofed as
saying:
l am Watc nag the Legisla-
sure OF Ssdth Carolina and
hoping ping and praying that it will
ffgpass some reasonable railroad
bill. 1t ought to pass a bill r, :
quiring every railroad selling
mileage books to sell one good
for any number of persons to
go anywhere on the system, just
as they do all over the NORTH,
east of the arid prairies.
The requirement that holders
of mileage books shall exchange
mileage for tickets is nuisance
and an abomination, and the re-
quirement that a member of his
family buy seperate book for
each member of his family is a
robbery that ought not to be
permitted.
Il don't see why the railroads
in South Carolina can't treat us
like white people as they do in
the North, instead of like cattle.
Only 'cussing' will do the subject
justice. These nuisances ought
to be abated.
