Z. V. TAYLOR ANNOUNCES

Reduction of Current to 10 Cents
Per Kilowatt b in Keeping
With Promise
Tho Southern Public Utilities com
pany hia announced a r?duction of 10
! per .cast ta its rate for electricUy fn?
the consumers of Anderson. This
( means ? saving of' $6,000 a year.
j This is. making good the promise
made by tho company more than a
j year^ago, when it stated Us toir.? !*??
, to make a 10 cent rate here v~
i as possible.
1 I. The rate as promulgated yesterday
j was agreed upon some time, ago, as
quite a number of Anderson people
- knew, but ror obvious reasons it was
? jdoctdod not to announce the rnte Just
? win be readied thai tho company
r r?cdnUy offered Wlnston-Saletn a like
J rate, itvhkh ww accepted in that city
; jferien 'oi^?n^lpai 6wneW,ip. The
I rate1 bas practically been In <effect in
Anderson ?inen the last reading of the
meiert, June "3d, and is now pearly
I wo weeks old although no announce
ment wan made pending u visit from
Pres. /. V'. Taylor, which had been
expected for some time. Pressure of
businesr detained him until yesterday.
The rate in thlr city one year ago
under the old contract was 12 and 1-2
cents. Under the new contract it was
reduced to 11 cents per hour und now
the company voluntarily cuts the rate
to 10 cents. This It promised to do
from tho outrct if the city council
would grunt the franchise asked for,
becaurn the company wished to get a
conclusion for u long term of years
In order to flout its bonds. The com
pany, after the way It has been mal
trcntcd. felt under no obligations to
reduce tho rate, but did bo any way.
Mr. Taylor slated yesterday that
the company In Just seven months
ahead of time In being able to offer
this rate to the people of Anderson.
Following is the seule of prices on
electricity announced yesterday, but
really in effect since June 23rd:

dered, minimum bill $1.00.
Mr. Taylor, while here yesterday,
inspected the numerous Improve
ment being made by his company
and stated that In curs of pipe are
now en route to Anderron, with which
the company will put In six inch
main;- In many streets In which there
ore now four Inch mains. "This one
thing alone will cost us between $20.
000 und $26,000," raid Mr. Taylor.
In speaking of the numerous crlt
Icrnn concerning the work of the
Southern Public Utilities company.
Mr. Taylor said: "We have spent $2
for cvory $1 we have realized out of
Anderson ever elnco we took charge
of the local plant and we will have
to continue that policy for some time.
"It does reem to me that those of
your citizens, continually carping and
criticising us should either ?hui up or
find out what they are talking about.
They are hurting nobody but them
selves. We are trying to give the best
service possible and we believe that
the public should at least be a little
appreciative."

Ml JUMPED THIRTY
FEET TO THE GROUND
LAWRENCE TREWOLA HAD
A NARROW ESCAPE
GAVE FIRE ALARM
Neighbor* Saw Man Falling From
Window and Concluded It
Was on Fire
(From Sunday's Dallv )
Crazed by the effects of some whis
key he hud obtained In town and
probably suffering also from the ef
fects of drugs. Lawrence Trewolln
yesterday afternoon about 1 o'clock
jumped from the second story window
of ('. A. Me.Laln'a boarding house to
the ground beneath. The fall was a
distance of between 20 and 30 feet and
that the man did not break his neck
Is hardly Iers than miraculous, yet
last night he was almost himself
ea'n and except for being badly
bruised he Is as sound ub ever.
Trewolla Is a carpenter by trade
-id has been at work for the last few
weeks on the Vandiver building whi<t
is being erected on Main street. Yes
terday was a holiday and all the em
ployees were given a day off. Tre
wolla came to town and had a few
drinks, and he says that the last thing
he remembers is taking a drink of
whiskey. Shortly after he drank it
ho started for hir home at 221 East
Orr street and when be arrived there
he found the boarders assembled at
dinner. Several of them asked it he
did not care for some dinner and he
replied that a cup of, coffee would be
sufficient. He drank this and then
calling for his w"?? thov went to their
room on the second floor. There,
wi'hont mentioning his idea to his
wlfo, he started to jump from the
window. Mrs. Trewolla tdre ' some
of the clothing from his body In an
endeavor to prccent the rash act but
ho threw her aside and Jumped. Tt so
happened that' Dr. J. C. Harris was
passing the houso at .the time and ho
gave the man such"' medical assist
ance as lie Could n'n'd* shortly after*
wards Dr. H. H. Harris arrived. They
both thought for a time that the man's
spine was broken at the base of the
brain but they finally got him revived
with Ice water and it was then dis
covered that'he had- hot even suffered
one broken bone. Had'ho been in pos
session of his faculties he might
have been killed. ' ',,? ,..>
. One of the. remarkable things, .in
connection with the i happening was
that a neighbor saw the man falling
and the concluded: that' -the house
must bo on fire to cause him to Jump,
and she accordingly turned in. the flro
alarm. The fire. department made a
quick run to the ecdne and it was fol
lowed by the enormous crowd In the
city. The visitors thronged the place
.and strangers thought* that half the
town must bo in flames.
Trewolla. is a man,,of middle age,
is married, and said ina.t night that ho
had no Idea why he should try to take
hie own life. \ .
