Week on COAST LINE.
TENDER. BAGGAGE AND EN-
PRESS CAR DERAILED AT
SOUTHERN JUNCTION.
Train Delayed Hour and Half by Oc-
currcnce-No Damage to Coaches
and Little Damage to Track
Wrecl<ing Train to Replace Cars
and Repair Damage.

Atlantic Coast Line train No. "a
layed about one hour and a half Sat
urday morning on account of a wreck
to part of the train at the Junction
with the Southern Railway near the
western part of the city. No one was
injured and comparatively little
damage was done. y new engine was
attached TO the train and other bag
gage and express coaches taken on
before the train could leave town.
The wreck occurred about 7.3O
when the train was coming into the
city from Columbia. The cause of
the wreck had not been ascertained
Saturday morning, although it was
thought that it could be found out
when the wrecking train succeeded
in putting the cars Lack on the
track. The passengers were in no
way alarmed by the occurrence and
save for a slight jolting up suffered
no inconvenience.
The wrecking train arrived from
Florence about l o'clock and went
at once to the scene. 1t was learned
that the derailed cars might have
been replaced on the track without
the aid of the wrecking force, but it
was feared that they might be dam
aged and to avoid the risk the force
was ordered. AS soon as the tender
of the engine and the two cars are
replaced the track which was torn
up for about thirty feet will be re-
placed.

Cigarettes by Local Dealers.

Maeterlinck, the great Belgian phil

eled Lucky Bluebird" pin, given freo
with Egyptienne Straights Cigarettes,
will make happy every woman to
whom II finds its way. This dainty
pin is in remarkably good taste. II is,
in fact, a real ornament which every
woman will find pleasure in wearing.
1t is proving so popular that dealers
say the supply will be quickly de-
pleted.
The manufacturers of Egyptienne
Straights seem quite willing to make
this offer to secure the wide trial they
desire for this brand. It is said that
experienced smokers need only try
Egyptienne Straights, costing 10 cents,
to recognize quality equaling that of
the best IS cent brands. In fact, to-
bacco dealers say that Egyptienne
Straights constantly surprise smokers
who expect such high quality only in
cigarettes costing double.-(Adv.).
