gusta Northern Railroad, was
seriously injured here at 1 O'Clock
to-day, when the motor car on which

his squad of hands witnessed the ac-
cident and were the first to reach
him. Mr.. Chadwick was in an uncon-

understand that in the west it is hard
to get man to carry the rural mails
who knows anything about it. 1t used
to be easy. You could drive along and
put the mail in the boxes but in these
days of parcel post the whole neigh

are eight or ten boxes. You have to
write money orders, you must bother
with registered letters and the pack
age business is getting enormous.
These folks in the country know
when to expect their package; they
are down waiting for you and you
must stop and talk, and it takes
longer; the work is harder, and by
the time the parcel post is we'll
known it is going to be impossible

BITTEN BY RABID CAT.
Walterboro Lad Attacked by Animal
That Proved to Be Mad.

Walterboro, Feb. 19.-This town
has been in, flutter Of excitement
this week, caused by cat which de-
veloped a complete case of rabies,
and which attacked several people
and succeeded in biting the young
son of MIR. and Mrs. c. F. Fishburne
on Sunday afternoon. At the time
several boys were playing, when the
cat came up and viciously attack
ed young Cotesworth Fishburne, aged
9 years. The wound itself would
have proved a severe one had not
the cat also been rabid.
At the time there we're playing
with young Fishburne, Charles Peur-
ifoy and a son of Mr.. Bishop, of
this city. Charles Peurifoy, after a
desperate struggle, succeeded in TAX
ing the cat from Cotesworth and al
so killed it with stick. The pres
ence of mind of the other boys prob
ably saved all from dangerous bites.
DR.. L. NJ. Stokes was called in and
he Immediately sent the cat to the
State board of health at Columbia,
in order that they might make a
thorough investigation and determine
whether the cat was rabid. Later
from what he could learn about the
cat, he decided it had rabies, and
in order to be on the safe side, i'm
mediately telegraphed for the Pas
teur treatment. On Tuesday DR..
Stokes received telegram from Co.
lumbia stating that the cat was rabid
and he Immediately began to give
the young boy the treatment. With
the exception of the pain from the
treatment and from the wound the
little fellow is resting comfortably
and has every promise of speedy re-
covery from the effects of the bite
and safety from the rabies.

STORM IN CALIFORNIA.
Seven Lives and Property Damage
Estimated at 1-2 Millions.

Los Angeles, CAL, February 21.-
With a loss of probably more than
s4,500,O00 and toll of seven human
lives since Wednesday, Southern
California tonight began to recover
from the effects of the worst storm
in it's history. With the sun shining
most of to-day, the situation improv-
ed considerably and while nearly all
of the towns affected remained
isolated tonight, progress was made
toward re-establishing wire and rail
communication.
1t is estimated that Los Angeles
was damaged to the extent of at least
s1,5OO,000. One hundred and fifty
thousand dollars represented the
damage to city streets alone. The
rest represented losses sustained by
railroads and by citizens whose
homes were swept away by the floods
Except in the vicinity of Pomona
this county, where young groves sui
fered severely, orange growers re-
ported comparatively little damage
Ranches and small farms in the low
lands we're inundated, but no reliable
data could be obtained as to the
amount of losses.

HEAVY VOTE IS POLLED
I'm NATIONAL ELECTION.
CONTESTS IN MIDDLE
WEST AND FAR NORTH
(By Associated Press.)

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 3.-Gen-
orally fair weather favors elections
today throughout the United States
An election to choose senators, con-
gressmen, governors and local officials
is being carried on in practically ev-
cry state of the union. Reports from
the different states indicate that a re-
cord vote will be polled.
Many sharp contests are noticeable
in the middle West and the New Eng
land states, in senatorial and con-
gressional races. In several states the
democrats are hopeful of breaking in
to the usual republican majority and
electing their men.
In the "solid south" democratic
workers are attempting to poll the
largest vote that has ever been cast
in Dixie. All indications point to as
large vote as is usually cast in pres
idential elections.
