Some Facts About HookwOrm.

The prevalence Of this disease In the
southern states was discovered by Dr.
Stiles in 1902. Work for the eradication
was first begun in 1910, and is now being
carried on throughout the South. Over
500, 900 persons have been treated; $4,000
having been treated in South Carolina.
The work has been carried on in every
county except Charleston, Kershaw and
Saluda. OF all persons examined micro,
scopically, over 80 percent we're Infected;
of, children, living in rural districts, over
46 percent were infected. In fully half oi
these cases the infected persons appeared
healthy. The disease is not hard to cure
but this requires several doses OF rnedi-
cine. The youngest person treated was
one year of age; the oldest was ninety
four. Wherever soil pollution is practiced,
the disease is certain to prevail.
Will these facts suffice to make our peo;
pc do their utmost TO make their premises
sanitary?,

VERA CRUZ FORFEITS
Its FUEL OIL SUPPLY
Mexican Governments Reduced
totDire Straits for Means
of Operating Railway

Vera Cruz. Feb g. The straits toIwhlch
the Mexican government is reduced for
fuel with which t., continue the operation
of the National Railway lines is shown by
the communicating today Of virtually the
whole fuel oil supply Of Vera Cruz. This
threatens the early suspension Of traffic
between Vera Cruz and the capital. .-
The government last night sent a train
Of 1S oil cars to Vera Cruz. Today an Off
Ger at the head Of squad of troops made
a formal demand on the agent Of the
Aguila company TO surrender all the oil in
its possession. The agent replied that the
oil already had been sold to the Mexican
railroad, which Is a British corporation.
The engineer In charge of the pumps re-
fused to fill the oil tanks and was arrested.
Latter he was released but was compelled
to obey the order. There now remains in
Vera Cruz only six days supply of oil
for the operation of the Mexican and Inter-
oceanic railways, and there Is no prospect
Of receiving more oil from Tamplco. 1t is
believed 1t will be impossible to maintain
communication with Mexico City beyond
the end Of the week, except In the case Of
trains for government service.
1t is asserted that the next move Of the
Mexican government will be to seize loco
motives and rolling stock of the Mexican
railroad to replace the engines and cars
recently destroyed In the north.
1t is reported that decree has been pre-
pared and only awaits the presidents
signature doubling duties on all imports
l,from.the United States.

Fashion Suit Demonstration

Haddon- Wilson's fashion suit demon
stration, in the second story of their
building Monday night proved to be a
drawing card. There were something like
present. Seats were arranged along the
side and southern end Of the room while
on the northern end an improvised stage
was arranged. The small stage was cur
tanned off with heavy green curtain mate
rial. The performance was under the
direction of Mr.. Peck, and the lady model
was Miss Perry. She was announced by
the manager to be of perfect form and
pretty face and she looked the part.
The performance was conducted
somewhat as follows: The young
lady would dress in certain costume
misses. girls, stout or slim-showing every
detail of costume. She would pose for a
moment, looking the very image Of wax
figure, then she would descend gracefully
down the steps and walk around the entire
enclosure. This performance was repeat.
ed twelve or fourteen times, each time dis.
playing some new design in hat or dress.
The performance was novel to Abbeyille,
and doubtless the ladies present got many
new suggestions, though 1t is pretty gen.
orally known that in no town in the state
do the ladies dress with more taste than In
] this same Abbeville.

; .J.H0WARD MOORE FOR SENATE.
: To Succeed Senator j. Moore Mars
~ Who, viii Bun, for Lieutenant
." .. Governor.

Hon. J. Howard Moore, at present a
member of the lower branch of the
general assembly, spent the weekend
in the city with his family, and while
here announced that he would be q
candidate for the Senate from this
county to succeed Senator J Moore
Mars, who it is understood will be a
candidate for Lieutenant Governor in
the primary: this summer. It will be
remembered that during the 1913 ses.
sion Of. the general assembly MI
! Moore announced that he would prob
ably be candidate for Lieutenant
Governor but since that time Senator
. Mars announced that he would be a
candidate for the position, and as Mr.
Moore realized that it would not be
wise for two men from AbbeVille
county to run for the place, he mas
decided to, Withdraw in favor Of Sena-
tor Mars and run. for the Senate and
leave the field to Senator Mars for
Lieutenant Governor. This is the first
political announcement in Abbeville
county while it is a little early there
is ample time for others to put their
chat IL the ring"
This announcement is made on the
authority of Mr. Moore and he states
that he is in the race to the finish.
