Some Voters Had
To Have Assistance.

Stepping around any street corner
in Anderson yesterday or behind. any
door one was very likely to come
upon two mon. one fixing up ballot
Tor the other and the other watching
very anxiously while the careful GpSo-
cess was going on. The explanation
OF such activities lay In two facts.
some Of the voterr could not read or
write while others wanted to vote a
straight administration or anti-ad-
ministratfon ticket and did not know
"who was who" or why on the ticket
They were therefore compelled to ask
for assistance and by last night It Is
probable that there wero several
hundred tickets already prepared and
waiting 70 be pushed into t.ox this
morning.

little rough stuff and he accordingly
seized bed-slat. which delicate In
Gtrumcnt he employed to such good
advantage that a physician had to be
summoned and Gloyer's better-half

while Glover was carted to the city

Excursion Kll
GO TO The Fails.

The announcement made yesterday
by the Southern Railway that an ex-
cursfon Is to be run. from TINS city to
Tallulah Falls Oh Friday, August %,
has awakened considerable, interest
around town. This is Baid to be q very
delightful trip aud a number Of An
derson people go to this beautiful
place for aq outing of day or SO
each year. The low round trip rate
offered for this excursion is attrac-
tive and the additional fact that the
tickets are good to return until Au-
gust 30 will doubtless add &. large
number to the crowd. The rain is
to leave this city Friday NOR ning at
C2O o'clock and the Falls Will be
reached at 11:40.

Probably more Anderson people
spent Sunday in Williamson shan
was ever the case before. 1t Is esti-
mated that during the day over 500
people went from this city and they
say that the outing was almost as
good as a trip tc the mountains.
Three trains over the Piedmont &c
Northern lines carried the crowd and
to chow how many made tho trip. the
spring went dry in less than five
minutes after the crowd arrived. A
special rate had been granted over
the railroads for the day and this
fact, coupled with the fact that the
First Regiment Band was giving a
concert, made the trip decidedly at
tractive. The people returning to the
city last night said that they enjoyed
the mugic very much and that the
band is In n class by Itself
