is Made That Ar.
rangements Are Being Made
For Opening Road.

The Bamherg. Ehrhardt and Wal
terborO railroad will be put into op-
GRAFTON within the next two weeks.
according to Mr. Jones 4. Williams.
Mr.. Williams and other gentlemen
made trip several days ago to Viii
mington, y. c.. on business con-
nected with the new railroad. Yes
terday he stated that arrangements
are now being perfected for putting
the road into operation. Mr.. Will
liams also stated that the new road
will be in position to handle fertiliZ-
err shipments this season. The fol-
lowing is his statement:
To the farmers along the line of
the Bamberg. Ehrhardt and Walter
boro railroad: The new railroad
will be put into operation within the
next ten days or two weeks. The
road will be opened in plenty Of time
to handle fertilizers this season"
When asked further about the
plans of the railroad, Mr. Williams
said that it would be premature to
state more than that the road would
be operated in the next ten days or
two weeks, but stated that the de-
tails of the transaction whereby the
road will be operated would he made
public within the next few days.
The news that the road is to be
opened will be welcome information
to those who reside between Bambers
and Ehrhardt. along the line of the
road. The road has been in the pro-
cess of building for some years. and
seemingly unSurmountable difficulties
have been overcome. 1t will prove
70 be a great convenience TO the peo-
pie. and they will welcome the sight
of the first train The road will pro-
vide opportunities for the people
along the line 10 plant truck and
watermelOnS on q larger scale. as
we'll as providing facilities for hand
ling the usual crops What will in
tereSt the farmers more than any
thing else now is the fact that they
can haul the fertilizers this season
over the new line.

COUNTRY NEWS LETTERS
SOME INTERESTING HAPPENINGS
IN VARIOUS SECTIONS.
News Items Gathered All Around the
County and Elsewhere.
E.hrhardt Etchin@S.

Ehrhardt. Feb. l:i.-Farmer re-
joiced and were busy during the good
weather last week, but it looks as If
we are 70 have more rain soon. Cot
ton is being marketed. not waiting
for higher prices, as the farmers are
thinking about what to plant and
how much this year. The big speeches
and loss OF time TO go and listen TO
others views is all right, nothing
amiss. but il can only amount TO this:
Farmers be sure to plant enough
provision kind to supply your en-
tire farm plentifully. and to spare.
then put in all the cotton YOU can
tend and gather. Then You will
come out all right. Try it. Some
attention is being given TO garden
work. and should have all the care
and attention it, needs as this is a
big saving TO any family.
Mr.. Lucas. his wife. and Miss
Price. OF Walterboro. visited friends
in Ehrhardt Sunday on an auto ride.
MIR. J. H. Kinard took his oath as
trial Justice and is now Judge kinard.
Don't think he has had case TO
pass his views on as yet. But don I
think il will be long before he will
have 10 pass on some ones disagree
ment.
Commercial fertilizer is coming
out very slowly this season, don I
hear many farmers talking about
using much for this crop. This Will
make the production less per acre,
at least % per cent. So this fall S
crop will not be record breaker.
From all reports it will be many
DAYS before train will be run on
the new road between here and Bam-
berg. The schedule and number OF
trains is not made out as yet, but
will be announced as soon as the
railroad magnates agree upon what
service TO give the people alonG the

AN OLD BASEBALL TRICK.

St. Louis. Aug. 9--A trick which was obsolete when Father Time was "a boy, and ndtresurrected by Diamond Jack O'Connor years ago and then forgotten again. enabled the Cardinals to defeat Brooklyn recently, 6 to 4. Rabbit" Higgins, who recently read of the play in Undiscovered baseball literature, was the man who put it into execution. Appleton, on the rub Der for Brooklyn, took the trag1cal part of the "goat." He deserves sym pathy rather than censure. Anyone SO unschooled in baseball tactics as to fall for the ancient trick is to be pitied. It all happened in the seventh. The score was tied, to 4, the bases were full for St. Louis, and Appleton was just glancing around preparatory to winding up.. Little Huggins had 8 sudden hunch. Let me see the ball." he seemed to say to Appleton, as he beckoned to him. Always obliging, Appleton made the toss, and Higgins stepped to one side, letting the ball roll to the grandstand. Miller scored on the pitch, and each or the other base runners moved up a bag
