_ / ' The Press and Banner Bv W. W, and W, R, Bradley. HUGH WILSON, Editor. < - 1 ABBEVILLE, S. C. | I u *$-PubllBked every Wednesdp at 82 a < y*ar In advance. , Wednesday, IMay 2, 1906. ! ' i The Due Went Railroad. Following up some previous correspond- , ence witb President Barr of the Seaboard Air Line railway Messrs. R. C. Brownlee, R. S. Galloway and A. S. Kennedy represent- i log Due West, and Messrs. G. A. Vlsanski | ana ?iagn wuson representing Aooeviue, took the Seaboard tralD Monday afternoon .for Norfolk, Va., arriving at Norfolk about eleven o'olock next day, being two bours late. As soon as tbe committee was quartered In a hotel, telephone message was sent to Mr. Barr, notifying him tbat a committee from Abbeville and Due West was In tbe city and desired to call on him. He replied tbat ^ be would be pleased to see tbe committee ai half-past twelve. At the appointed time tbe committee appeared at his ofhoe. Each member ol the committee was introduced to Mr. Barr. Mr. Visanski stated the object of our visit. Mr. Galloway was called upon to give an estimate as to tbe business or freight that tbe proposed road might expect. Mr. Brown lee or Mr. Kennedy, we believe It was, suggested as an Inducement for Mr. Barr to build the road, tbe chert beds of Messrs. Link and Aiken which were about midway of the line, and which would be jsA./ valuable as ballast for tbe railroad. fn ranlv to this nroDosltlon Mr. Barr knocked that argument out on first] base. , He said: "On aocount of Its cohesion It j would not do for railroad ballast. Railroad ( ballast must be porous, so as to drain tbe { ties. Chert bad been tried In Alabama, and | It would not answer tbe purpose." , Mr. Barr asked for wbat purpose It bad been used, wben be waB told tbat tbe town ( was baulded It to spread on tbe streets and ( sidewalks of Abbeville. President Barr then Bald tbat the building , of a railroad was a matter of business, and that he would send an officer within the next J ten -days to Investigate tbe probable profit. ( If his report was favorable be would send , a surveyor or engineer to report upon tbe ( - ' probable cost of building the road. Tbe cost ( of rolling stock would not enter into the ( calculation. TblB officer would be sent to , Mr. Vlianskl ifrom whom the necessary at. tentlon will be expeoted. & -' - Mr. Brownlee made the statement that we proposed to give S50.000 toward the construction of tbe road. ! ' president Barr asked tbe distance wben be was told that It would be eleven and a ball |kvs" miles. J * Mr. Barr aald the cost, I presume, would ? be about $100,000 or 5110,000. Mr. YTlsanski asked If Mr. Barr would con% - tribute to tbe building of an eleotrlc line from Abbeville to Due West. Mr. Barr with a sml^ on bis face said that steam roads were a little Jealous of electric r . liner; and that we would take up tbat ques tlon at some future time. Tbe oommlttee tben took tbelr leave, feeling gratified a t their reception and tbe reP^iioit. Tbe oommlttee spent tbe afternoon seeing tbe city. The trip to Old Point where Fortres Monroe guards tbe country from Invasion by hostile fleets. Tbe Fort Is surrounded by r water and the guns guard a front age of per Ev haps one or two miles. | On the spacious and beautifully kept p" grounds are officers houses, churches and |? other buildings. Among tbe notable build logs Is tbe Chamberlain hotel, which coat to build a million and a baif and wblcb was z Afterwards sold for (800,000. ? , . Fortress Monroe Is some flftteen or twenty L miles from Norfolk on tbe river route to PB:r$ W asblDgioo. 1 Mr. Vlsanskl and Mr. Galloway returned y tbat evening leaving Norfolk at nine o'clock. 8 Mr. Kennedy, Mr. Brown lee and Mr. Wll- 0 on remained la tbe oily until tbe next aigbt. Daring Wednesday they made the trip 1 . over to Portsmouth, and saw a little of tbe 11 navy yard, viewed some of tbe great vessels b In tbe waters, and went aboard tba Arkan p sas. We bad been aboard but a little while d until we bad tbe pleasure of meeting a Lieutenant Thomas Parker, formerly of this lj elty. Thomas Parker, like all other boob oi 1 tbe late W. H. Parker, Is an honor to his * natlv.e town. He conducted us over bis ship In 11 a way tbat was exceedingly pleasant to us ail. A battle ship, or by whatever teobuaeal name tbe Arkansas may be called. Is mosi , ' Interesting, and as we contemplate its tMsgtb, and tbe scientific skill with wblcb S it is csnBtrocted, we may plaoe confidence o andtiustln the guns and tbe men behind ft tbe guns. Tbe Arkansas, we believe Is o What is called a cruiser, for coast defense, a But whatever its name and whatever lm particular line of duty, it 1b a comlort to tbe oountry and a terror to any wbo might make K-i4: war on us. F Liter In tbe afternoon tbe Virginia was ** to wed past ns as we stood on tbe great plat- p, form tbat faced tbe water. a We boarded an electric car for tbe James a town Exposition grounds, where work pre- t( paratory to tbe great show Is being done. As c( we returned a great number of laborers filled a the car and occupied every vacant seat. A lady and ber crippled oompanlon, ber son we presume, come id 100. ?ne crippie iouna a " eat. The lady was standing, when Mr. ft Brownlee or our party offerred her the seat on A which be had beea Bitting. She replied: "No, I thank yon. 1 don't mind standing." _y Mr. Brownlee replied: "We are not the men w to alt while a lady stands." And ho the lady was seated, tier drese, her behaviour, and her speech alt Indicated that she was a lady Indeed?one whom the gods would be proud to Jove and honor. ? y Love and Post Offices. V 1' John O. CaperB Is still fighting the reappointment of Mr. R. 8. Link sb postmaster at Abbeville. He claims to want a Republican to have the office, while someof us think tbat he Is only at spite work against Mr. Aiken, Mr. Link being Mr. Alken'B friend. As far au we have heard no one has said a word agalntt jut. 1jiu& a cuiuicui;;, ui uid wuuuui* ui buo office. If tbe authorities at Washington lead themselves to spite work, Mr. Link may not . be reappointed. But wbat does Mr. Link care lor a little po6t office In Abbeville, wben be can triumph In the love of tbe prettiest and the best woman In Alabama? i Preity Window?Pretly UoodN. Abbeville has bad many store fronts lmproved. Tbe last along this line Is lhat o' ' Messrs. Calvert & Nlckles. Splendid polished plate glass light tbe biggest and tbe handsomest show windows In which are exhibited tbe choicest goods of every needed variety, and at prices to suit the customers. Always polite, always accommodating, Messrs. Cul. * ert & Nlokels bave won a host of customers from every section of the county. Coming 10 Town. The family of Mr. John E. Dantzler, manv, ager of the Smith Dry Goods Company, will inrre to the city of Abbeville this week, when they will occupy one of Capt. L. W. White's houses. Mr. Dantzlei's family come from a little town someyrhe-'; over in Georgia, called Atlanta. 1 ' r--\ - 1 . / ?' ? ' " V-." j 1"^ GETTING READY. rhii'Nt.

Killed with water, a boun- ^ Llful supply of whlcb be had previously pro- a vlded, It goes about leaving water Id its track. In this great tank are arranged leaks, ^ which as ltlgoes along lets out the water to ^ lay the dust and to burden microbes with e' such an Immense weight as to keep them rrom flying through tbe air in search of vital ^ Drgana, and which water will keep them un- 0 lerfoot during tbe bot weather, wben tbe dust and the microbes usually All the air '1 and blind our vision. Dust and microbes will now no longer flnO In our lungs and our ? bomea fruitful fields in which tbey may do tbelr deadly work. We can now lr^ely breathe tbe air in all its purity, with no fear Df the pestilence tbat walketh at noonday. '( But no matter bow pure the air may be, we are allured on to other pleasures * -the pleasures of taste and appetite, for Instance. The new Arm of the McMurray Drug Company have opened a beautiful soda fountain on tbe North side of ^ ibe public square where tbe most pallatable 3f the cooling drinks are constantly kept on Iraught.' When cobwebs are In our throats ^ ind when the rooky grinding and the earthy matter are borne on the breeze, we, like tbe I streets and sidewalks, need a little of the a fluids to even up things and to bring about f i normal feeling. The McMnrray Drug Com- 11 pany have drinks which are so lnnooent and a 30 good that when tbe dnst and beat welgb upon the mind and heart of customers, they a aveonly to let their needs be known, and " tbe pallatable Iced soda water will Aow to ri four delight to tbelr profit.

Forgetting creditor*, g enemies, faithless eooks and other things that worry the mind and troable the heart, ^ Lbelr troubles are as light as air, and the j( rlslon Is as olear as the noonday sun. Y And when tbe sons of toll, the butterflies if fashion, and the gentlemen of elegant lei- R mre aad limited means assemble at Mr. Mil- ^ ford's drug store they are dazzled with tbe seauty and splendor of his soda fountain. ^ Ells cool, refreshing and satisfying drinks are a 10 delightful that the esophagus of ^ aach Individual must be frequently swept g, from tbe fonntaln of good things. They Q irink and loiter. And then they loiter and irlnk some more.

But the lce-oold drinks at the McMurray Drug Store, and tbe imprisoned fluid that Hows from Mllford's fountain at your request ire not the only places at which female ti Deauty and manly valor may assemble to d quench their thirst for the cooling drinks, tl while luxuriating In the light of each others' tl 3yes.

C{ L To Be Divorced. g( The State of South Carolina does not give d< llvorce from the marriage vows, no matter tow unhappy the husband may be or how N igly the wife may turn out to be. But there s no law against the divorce of mules and N (rlsoners. Exercising the right of aucb divorce the town oouncll are building a brick ri table on that part of their lot which fronts n a back street. When this new building Is L lnlBhed, mules and prisoners will have sep G rate rooms at night. If there Is one thing Jf hat disturbs a mule more than another, It is A ud tunuuiiu inia ui a uruuft ixiau iu waniug oars. Bat tbe male's chief cause of oomlalnt Is, that the drunk man will not sleep urlng tbe hoars when sell-respecting mules re presumed to be In tbe land of nod. Tbe own mules contemplate wltb great pleasure tielr separation from drunken lodgers who te eep them awake at nlgbt. No good male kes to go to bed with a drunken man. F . . F Electricity. M Mr. W. N.
