Boozer, of the Et heredge section had the misfortune recently to have bis hand cut in a gin. The wound, though painful, is not so serious as to cause the loss of his band, for which Mr. Boozer's many friends rejoice with him. The Southern Cultivator is authori ty for the following: "Two and a half miles from Hartwell, Ga., there is on the old Skelton place, an apple tree seventy years old. From the time it began bearing until it was fifty years old, the tree bore large, red June ap ples. After that it changed, and from that until now, it has borne apples of greenish color."

A complete and immediate revolu tion of transportation methods, involv ing a reduction of freight charges on grain from the West to New York of from 50 to 60 per cent., ht what is pre dicted in the November Cosmopolitan. The plan proposes using light and in expensive c .rrugated iron cylinders, hung ou a slight rail supported on poles from a cross-arm-the whole system involving an expense of not more than fifteen hundred dollars a mile for construction. The rolling stock is equally simple and compara tively inexpensive. Continuous lines of cylinders, moving with no interval to speak of would carry more grain in a day than a quadruple track ril way. This would constitute a sort of grain pipe line. The Cosmopolitan also points out the probable abolition of street-cars before the coming horse less carriage, which can be operated by a boy ou asphalt pavements, at a total expense for labor, oil, and inter est, of not more than o..e dollar a day. The Greenwood Journal, of last week, said, "Mr. Reynolds, a railroad magnate of Baltimore, and George Evans, Esq., of Edgefield, were in the city last Saturday on business con nected with the Carolina Cumberland Gap railroad. The northern terminus of this road is now at Edgefield court house, and it is proposed by the bond holders, who have recently purchased the road, to extend it to Greenwood. The press of the State, led by the Char lestcu News and Courier, are urging the building of the road to this point, and later extending it to Greenville and there tap the main line of the Southern system. If the road is ever made any longer there is no doubt about its coming by way of Green wood. The commercial importance and the railroad facilities of this city and the easy grading of the road from Edgefield all conspire to make Green wood the most desirable objective point for the extension of the road. Greenwood has never been known to fail to do anything looking to her ad vauceinent and to the promotion of the public good and she may be relied upon in this instance to do ber full duty." The Old Soldiers. PROCEEDING OF THE ABNER PERRIN CAMP NOVEMBER 4TH, 1895. A meeting of Abner Perrin Camp was held in the Y. M. C. A. Hall on Monday the 4th November.
