MR.. JOHN 8. NORWOOD.

The following notice of the death
Of Mr.. John S. Norwood was copied
from the New Bedford paper.
John S. Norwood, late of II Ross
Court, of this city, passed away
suddenly at his home early Sunday
morning. Death was due to heart
failure.
Mr.. Norwood was born at Abbe'
vile South Carolina, May 26 1855
and lived there until 1910, at which
time, he and his family came tc
Medford, where they have since re-
sided. In 1887 he was married tc
Amelia Churchill Walker of Char
lesion, S. C.
Mr.. Norwood was the last sur
viving member Of large and prom
inent old southern family, and alst
one of the last of that type of Ame
lean gentlemen of which the olt
South once furnished so many ant
to which the whole nation poiI
with pride. He was a man whos'
inloverable chivalrous nature gen
erous heart, and nobility o'
manner won for him a large
circle of friends, both in hi
boyhood home and in the wesserr
community where he lived in late7
years. His devotion to his family
his sense of loyalty to his friends
endeavored him to all who were fol
tuna1e to know him.
He leaves to mourn his loss, hi
wife and daughter, Sarah, whose
many friends will regret to hear 0.
their sorrow.
Funeral services will be held a
8 80 o'clock Tuesday afternoon a
the Episcopalian church, 7th ant
Oakdale, Rev. W. B. Hamilton Of
fciating. Concluding services vii
be i the Jacksonville centery.

But when we say this we would
not havethe people believe that the
work is finished when the building
of these roads is completed. Time
and again we have warned the tax
payers and citizens of the county
that the large expenditure made for
these roads will be next to thrown
away unless adequate provision is
made by the next legislature for
$heir up-keep. Already some of these
roads are getting in bad shape. The
defects which are now showing up
should be speedily repaired or we
will have mudholes instead of de-
fects. That much is certain.

opened to automobile traffic gets lit
tie more than passing thought. Yet
the highway will transport in many
cases several times the traffic that a
railway would. Perhaps the fact that
there are so many new highways be-
ing opened all along accounts for the
disinterested receptions given them
Travelling over the beautiful high
way that has just been finished be-
tween Honea Path and Abbeville, a
distance of some rs or 80 miles,
we were impressed by the fact that
Abbeville has an avenue of tratflc
comparable to trunk line railway.
Then going on from Abbeville to
tGreenwood where another highway
is being rapidly improved and will
be opened to traffic within a few
months, we were moved to remark
that Abbeville is soon to be in the
position of having the equivalent of
two new railways.
There is not in South Carolina a
finer piece of dirt highway construc-
ton than the road between Honea
Path and Abbeville. 1t is wider than
the average topsoil road, is we'll
drained as safe as it is possible to
make highway, the topography con-
sidered. One motors along with no
fear except of the speedometer au-
ditors. The Abbeville-Greenwood
road, designated as No. z by the
State Highway commission, will be
another model route when it is fin
ished. At present a detour is neces-
sary.
Abbeville ought to feel proud Of
these highways and the upper Sec
ton of the state should feel even
prouder. They establish Abbeville in
direct communication with every
county and town in this upstate and,
better still, invite every motor car
owner to become acquainted with
the beauty of this historic city. Abb
beville is the quintessence of charm,
and those who do not know the
town do not know their South Caro-
lima. The upper highway continues
from Honea Path through Bolton,
Pelzer and Piedmont to Greenville
1t is designated as No. 20. The News
ventures the prediction that these
will be worth millions of
dollars to Abbeville and Abbeville'
county.-Greenville News.

OUR GOOD ROADS.

The Greenville News a few day!
ago had an editorial concerning the
good roads in Abbeville County. Es
pecial notice was given of the roao
from Honea Path to Abbeville.
The truth is that we have come
nearer getting value received fol
money spent on roads than any
county of which we have knowledge
A few days ago a prominent citizen
of Greenwood spoke to US of the
fine work which has been done on
our roads, saying that our roads
were superior to any Of the newly
built roads which he had seen.
We have had the services of good
patriotic men as Highway Commits
sioners and the county is greatly in
debted to them for the services they
have rendered. The pay they have
received for these services is but
poor pay for what they have done.
But they have not worked for pay.
We believe that each Of them has
been prompted to serve the county
on this board solely by his desire to
be Of public service.
The best days work the Highway
Commission has done since it became
a working organization was in Sc
curing the services of Engineer H. B
Humbert. Mr.. Humbert is first
class engineer and practical road
builder. He made a fine Supervisor
for Laurens County. He has had lit
tie to say and some people have
thought he was slow and that the
engineers Office was spending a
good deal of money. But the kind Of
roads built under his supervision are
sufficient to satisfy anybody that he
has been on the job and that the
money spent in the office Of the en-
giaeer has been we'll spent.
We hope that the other roads to
be built before the Highway Com
mission completes its task will be as
satisfactory as these already COM
pIeted. If so we will have as good
system Of dirt roads as can be built,
we believe.

FRUIT SHIPMENTS
SHOW A DECREASE

Chicago, Nov, 16.-The car lot
movement IF fourteen important
fruits and vegetables for the week
ending November II was 1904. a
decrease of more than 5000 from
the preceding week, according to
the weekly market review Of the
United States bureau - agricultur-

About half the loss was due to a
lighter potato movement.

Serve Sentence Here.

Two federal prisoners were sent
to the Abbeville Jail from Green
wood yesterday to serve their SEN
tences of four months each for the
violation Of the prohibition law.
They are Mccormick County ne
groes. Will Richardson and
Will Andrews by name. 1t seems
the Federal Court distributes the
prisoners over the state without re-
gard to where the offence was COM
mitted: but wherever they can be
taken care of.

LIFE AND CHARACTER
READING
IuIx CG

.
The governing sign of this birth
date is the combination of Cancer
and Leo. This is the element Of fire
and water. very wet water. and
very hot fire. The natives are often
intellectual geniuses and usually am
bilious and deslrous of occupying
high places in the world. and
while they undoubtedly have the
ability to do so. they are too lazy TO
work for it. and usually rely on their
wits TO obtain their end.
There are many political cheats
and crooks, of a most unscrupulous
character who claim this as their
birthdate.
The women are most affectionate
and are splendid housekeepers. but
II they feel they are being neglected
by their husband. they soon con-
ceive a disgust for their marital
companion which is difficult to over
come. and il is usually final.

BAku. AZERBAIJAN. Feb. Is
One OF the recent Communist al
tempts to invade Persia and capture
Toheran. its capital, had most of the
elements OF a great comic opera.
The little army Of zoo Georgian
invaders masqueradcd as Persian
women by wearing loose wells and
other clothing OF women over their
uniforms.
The queer appearance of the cxpe-
hition aroused the suspicious OF the
"Cheka' when it reached E;nzeli. n

arrested and taken back To Baku
for examination.
Released. the invaders set out
afresh and advanced into the noun

peasants arose against them and
drove them out
The exploit is celebrated even here
among the many mad political aud
military adventures which charac-
tcrized the struggle of tho British
ana russians to capture the Persian
capital.
