NEW ENTERPRISE CONSIDERED.
Trolly Line from Greenwood to Lin
colnton, Ga., a Possibility
This enterprise is now being considered
by the business men of Greenwood, so we
have been reliably informed, and as the
town .of McCormick is on the line of the
proposed route the matter is of great im
riArtorno ti\ fho r>ifri?i?Tic of this tfiron anrl
section.
As soon as the trolly line from Green
ville is completed?the right of way for
which has been arranged?it is proposed to
extend the line in a southerly direction
through Greenwood county to Lincoln
ton, Ga., crossing the Savannah at a point
near the mouth of Little Kiver. Passing
through a fine section of Greenwood coun
ty, connecting with the Charleston & West
ern Carolina railroad at McCormick and
supplying the much needed railroad facili
ties for Lincolnton county, in Georgia the
road would be of great benefit to the peo
ple along the entire route by affording
quick transportation and a competing
freight line, and an outlet for the town of
Lincolnton, now nearly 20 mile6 from the
nearest railroad.
Every inducement possible 6hould be of
fered to the promoters of this proposed
road by the people of the towns and sec
tions along the route, to the end that the
enterprise may be applied for at an early
date.
We believe the business men of McCor
mick will co-operate with those of Green
wood, and their energetic efforts will go
far .towards making the undertaking a
compete success. /

THE B5IZZARD IS A

PECULIAR TO THE SOUTH-SOUTHERN

mini
"I've been in this country about
three months now and haven't seen i
buzzard vet," remarked a man froa
the flnuth this morning a9 he looked
out of bin hotel window, meditatively
across the fat, lumpy back of olc
Jumbo.
1 Haven't seen a what?" asked hie
roommate, who hails from one of tht
far northern states.
"Buzzard, man, buzzard. Nevei
heard of a buzzard?"
"That's one on me. What kind ol
an animal is it?"
"No bnimal at all. It's a big black
bird that builds its nest at the top ol
tall tref-s ami lives on scavenger'" ,
"Nothing like that in this country.
TVM me about it."
"Well, a buzzard is am indispensable tc
the warm southern countriesasa snow
shoe is to the far northern trapper. He
can't sinir and he is not prepossessing
at all in appearance, but t^psouthern
people think so much of him fnrhis vo
racious nppetite that it is a $10 fine in
almost every slate of the south to kill
or rob her buzzardness' nest, which is
u ually perched far back into the woods
on th* topmost limb of some giant tree.
"A Rare Old Bird."
"I didn't realize it before, but I know
now that the buzzard is indeed a rare
old bird. A* a boy I recall on many a
hot summer afternoon locating the last
resting place of faithful "Old Beck,"
ibe long-earned family mule, or "Old
Mooley," the cud mouthed family cow,
who bad kicked the bucket, by the
swarm of these big, black,hungry birds
swishing their way to the nearest tree
top. Actually it makes me homesick
to think of the varmint.' I can see even
now one after another, representing
every iamuy 01 nis kiuu wuum u ra
dious of five or 10 miles, gracefull sail
ing through .the air, some almost as
bigb up as Ralph Johnstone flew above
'he Statue of Libertv, preparing to
pounce upon the cold remains of the
animals that had laid down life's bur
dens and were resting in the by-way
places.,
"The buzzard, if anything, can 'trip
the light fantastic' with .his broad
wings far away into the plue when he
gets a whiff'of a departed creature be
low. It is said that the higher ihey
flv the keener is the sense of tbeir ol
sctory nerve. Once almost out ol
sight you can see him begin to circle
slowly and then, apparently knowing
that bisfea?tdan never make an outcry
from the piercings of his peeked bill, he
folds his wings,-as it were, and swoosh
es to the ground with the self-confi
dence of a nag rushing into a clovei
patch when the gate is left open; upon
ightin he looses bis gracefulness. In
stead of walking majestically to his
open-air banquet board be lopes aloof
m a most ungainly fashion and pro
ceeds wiihhis repast after the manner
(it au mrniwru gmiMu.
Hli AwkHid Gait.
"So well known is the buzzard's awk
ward that down south the negroes in
their long, winter night country dan
ceuhave a npecialty known as 'De Buz
zard Lope.' I have watched the dar
kifs at their old-fashioned reels man>
times and have greatly enjoyed hear
ing h liig black fellow calling the 'fig
gen".'
'"Gityer pardners fer de nex'ker
tyllum.'
"All at once the negroes would scam'
per to the floor, when, suddenly, a
young buck would bend his knees and
exclaim, 'I'se u;wine ter gib you'De
Buzzard Lope,' This aunouncemeni
*0>uld l>e to'lowed by one of the mosl
grotesque gyrations you ever taw and
ihortlv. everv necrro on the floor would
join in 'lopinp!'
"Yuu know, since I have come tr
hiuk about it, I believe the buzzard
in responsible for the ecarchy of negro
es in this country. Dowu south th<
colored race, that is, thfe more ignorant
class, believes that there is a great
deal of virtue in buzzard's grease foi
rheuuuatiz' and' other miseries,' as
they call it."
"You have told me something about
a bird that I have never seen and one
[ scarcely knew existed," replied the
roommate. "But I can understand
very easily now why such a varmint
is not needed in this country. He
would freeze to death. ThiB high cli
mate does the work out here."
Xot a Magpie,
The southern man having discover
ed that he hid spruug a subject rather
uew to the native of the northwest,
decided that he v> ould do a little quiz
zing for his own amusement,
"Are there auy buzzards in this coun
try?" he asked a Moutana-boru young
man.
"Buzzards? Buzzards? L?mme see.
Sure, eure, there are buzzurds out here.
I've seen lots of 'em. They live on
curriuu.-*
"What kind kind of looking things
are they V" asked thesoutheruer, know
ing that he bad a good pupil.
"O, it's a bird of course. It's a bird.''
"How large a bird?"
"Lemme eee. well, I should say It's
a little larger than a robin and a little
smaller tban a crow.
The quizzer laughed to himself,
''Does be sing?"
"No, I never heard one sing, but
when a drove of them get together
they chatter like the mischief."
The man from the land of "De Buz
zard Lope" lauuhed out loud and ex
plained to the Montana friend that he
was thinking of a magpie.
No need for buzzards in the north
west, The South Carolina specie with
his pointed wings, the red-headed,
white-toed scavenger from Georgia,
or the old-time turkey buzzard, king
nf the air. wouldn't be content to roost
on Mount Lolo. His three meals a
day would be few and far between.
He in at borne in bis native land,
particularly Charleston, S. C., wbere
droves of them may be found any day
on market street as special delegates
of the health department. The buz
zard is a pet in that city by the sea.
He will eat out of your hand if you
give him the proper kind of bait
The people of Charleston think al
most as much of their buzzards as thej
do their"best harbor on the Atlantic
coast."

I The Masonic banquet given last Thurs- i

very enjoyable affair socially, but was i
rather quiet, as there was no music, no
speeches or even toasts, these all go far ]
toward making a banquet all it should be >
and give it zest and life. The banquet was {
I an elegant spread, in truth it was a royal J
j feast which was ssrved in royal style from 1
' 10 to 12 o'clock. -
Mr. McFall, tho proprietor of the Eureka, J
received many compliments upon tho get \

Many friends regret exceedingly the de

We had hoped they would have made Ad
beville their* future home. They hold a
warm place in many hearts and homes in
this honored old city. Brother Stokes has
been a faithful and zealous preacher, a
good, kind and thoughtful pastor and will
be missed by hosts of friends whom he has
served so honestly and truly for the past
two years.
The congregation of the M. E. church
and the people of this community extend a
cordial and hearty welcome to Brother Ed
wards and family who will succeed Bro.
Stokes, and hope they will find among this
people a happy home and many friends.

them all and bring joy and happiness to
