THE HESS SCENES HEARING COMPLETION REHEARSALS IN PAST WEEK HAVE WORKED MANY WONDERS LITTLE PEOPLE Arc Showing Better Progress Than Older Ones-Cabaret Scene Very Beautiful. Another week of auc'i efforts and progrens as the past week has wit nessed will BOC Anderson's grand kir niesa very near the State of perfection. Tho past week truly has boen a very strortous ono for participants and di rectors and both are very much pleased with the results which hr.vo been obtained. And thc-y should Just ly tuol pleased as well as proud for some wonderful work has been ac complished. In fact some of the peones ar;? practically completed now, especially the onc3 In which fie younger sets aro taking part. Among these scenes may be mentioned "The Midsummer Night's Dream," "A Night In Koko'a Gurdon" and tho "Strol lers." Tho first mentioned number Is made up of nearly ono hundred little girls and lt 1B truly marvellous to witness tho perfoctlon Waat theso little folks have reached In this very difficult number. It Is noticeable that the scenes nearest completion are tho ones made un of tho youngor members of An derson's amateur talent and that the scenes willoi r:ro not making tho pro per progress nro tho onc3 in which tho older members are expected to take, part. Every effort will bo made to remedy this and it is believed that quito n sufficient number of young men and women will bo on hand to morrow night to make up the missing parts. Tho absonco of older material, howovor, has not mado any difference materially thus far, but beginning to morrow tho chief directors of The Kinness will bo on the scene, and rehearsals will be earnestly pursued with tho hopo of nearing completion ?luring tho wook, and this can easily bo aecompllf/acd If tho proper efforts aro mad?. So If you haven't already attended rehearsals bo on hand to morrow night to see what is bolng dono and do what you can to lend the ladle;! of tho civic association your assistance. Tho famous cabaret acene will bo started this week, and this much talked of number will surely prove very Interesting to tho representa tive people of the city, for in this numbr ls presented a real modern, up to dato cabaret with all KB accom panying features and lt is bound to provo a winner. The Kirmess haB juBt been present ed in Greonvlllo with tho most won derful success and the whole city has tboen enthused with tho spirit. It waa with mu<a> regret that tho much heralded event at last came to an end, BO let Anderson catch tho ??pl-it where they left off and make tho mo3t of this approaching social avont o" the season.

BUSINESS MEN WROTE LETTERS ABOUT PUN PLEASED WITH NEW MAIL SERVICE PROPOSITION OFFERED BE MUCH BETTER Since Morning Moil Could Be Dis tributed By Time it Now Reaches This City. Several prominent business men of tho city yesterday wrote letters to Mr. E. Thomason, genera^ mana ger of tho Piedmont & Northern lines, In wP.'Ich they thanked him and heartily endorsed tho offer which ho mads recently to get the early morn ing mall into Anderson sooner. Tho proposition nu made by Mr. Thomason was to tho effect that tho & Northern would bring the early morning mall to Anderson six months free of charge, which would placo lt in this city at 7:35 o'clock instead of 3:1") as is now tho case. Mr. Thom ason bas taken up t> o matte rwith Mr. Met?., superintendent of tho pos tal department service for this ter ritory, and tho peoplo of the city are awaiting tho outcome of the proposi tion with tho greatest interest. The morning mail nov/ arrives on a niuo rtldg? freight train from Seneca, which is scheduled to reach Ander son ut 8:15. Frequently this train is lato which causes much dissatis faction. Tile morning mail is prob ably tho Heaviest of the day and its delay has bee otho cause of complaint for u long time. Mr. Thomason now proposes to bring this mail, the same that comes from Seneca, over tho first Interurban train coming from Greenville, which read tes thia city at C:36 o?>lc):k. This would allow its being distribut ed by 8:15 and-would bo much bet ter than the present service. .

Those increases are being felt by thte druggists in Anderson and there fore by tho public generally.. Many peoplo aro wondering-why xhuir med icines aro costing-so much more, than they did a few months ago and are Baying all kinds ot things about the doctors and the druggists, when in fact tfatey should be aiming their abuse at the war. It is well , to note .the increase in price of a few or the heavy drugs; Epsom sal tn formerly sold at 10 cents a pound are now 'being.'retalle;! nt 20, unless the druggist veas-fortunate to have on hand a largo, supply before th?.increase in price went into effect.
