LOCAL MAN MAY
GET FINE TRIP
South Carolina Will Send Two
Men To San Francisco Wi,hin
Next Few Days

II is understood that there Is some
possibility OF an Anderson man being
picked rs one OF the two representa-
tives to go from this State to San
Francisco within the next few weeks
to make arrangements for the South
Carolina exhibit, which will be seen
at the Panama exposition. This pos
sibility lies In the fact that two men
nre to be chosen for this duty. one to
come from the "low country" and the
other from the Piedmont section. It
is known that those who have been in
strumental In arranging for the Soutl,
Carolina exhibit look with favor up
on selecting q man from this city for
the work.
Porter A. Whaley.. secretary of the
Anderson chamber OF commerce re-
ceived telegram yesterday. asking
II he would come to Columbia Mon
day for meeting OF those interested
In tho proposition and Mr.. Wheley
will probably make the trip. He may
be accompanied by one or two An
dersOn people.

It are getting along nicely. The fund
is being raised and since the commit
tee has struck on the idea of sending
q number of medals out all over the
State. to be sold at 81 each and the
proceeds applied to the fund, this fund
will probably ite considerably swelled
within the next few days. The Intel
ligencer has received five OF these
medals. as did every other newspaper
In the state. When each Of these pa
pers sell their Ave, five more will be
sent to every bank in the state for
them to dispose OF. In this way q
number OF pretty little medals will be
distributed all over the state and
many dollars will be realized fortthe

thrown into his back yard, where it
was partially devoured by the dogs.
The negro reported that there was
some name on the cloth I'm which the
infant was wrapped. but the name had
been partially o6iitetated.
Coroner Hardin said last nigh; that
he did not, know what would be done
about the case, since he could not find
the remains. hut that aome action may
be taken. He said thnt the city offic-
las should certainly tryto clean up
the part OF the town :c which the
gruesome find was made. He. says
that such an odor alone i3 enough to
make everybody in that pnrt of town
sick I'D that the .Eealtil officials
