The Trolly Line.
The surveyors of the Trolly Line
have ccme and passed on through
our town. They came pretty well
up the old Augusta road from sear
Brooklend, as wo stated last week,
I deviating but little as they came.
At or near Mr. Jas. W. Corley's residence,
beyond the rock quarry, about
ft mile below town. Tbey made as
near a direct line as the situation
would allow for LexingtoD, which
crossed Twelve Mile Creek in front
of Judge Wicgard'a on to lands of
Eli L. Corley, and theDce up the
creek and across by Mr. Mike Wingard's
place; continuing through di.
rect, taking the home of Mr. Hall,
nearly centrally in front cf the Baptist
church, where they again crossed
the Augusta road, through the Fort
place, lands of G. M. Harman and
W. P. Roof, crossing depot street
' fthrmfrlhO vards south of the town j
ball. Here on the fat ridge of Mr.
Roof it is likely a depot will be erected.
By tbeir survey they reached
Lexington from Brookfana in less
than eleven miles. From here the
route continues over aod through the
Muiier lands, on to those of E J.
p George. Here they diverge a little
northwest on lands of Mrs. D. L
George, passing near D. E. Ballentine's
place, through laods of W. W.
Barr, Ado Leapharfc, Milledge Harris,
Rev. W. D. Quick, to the Rawl old
field, again on the Augusta road.
TKow Tuill lifcfllv ?nn*inue ud said

road nearly direct for Leeaviile by
Shiloah church, Scz.
Oar people are delighted with the
idea of having this road which certainly
will enhance their property
and be of inestimable value to the
community through which it passes.
Let the land owners throw no obstacles,
unnecessarily, in the way as to
its construction, but aid in every way
possible..
The conference of prominent prohibitionist
held in Columbia last
week is said to have had no politics
in it, but was purely an effort to deal
with the liquor question from a
scientific point of view, and the
movement promises good.
It has always been our opinion that
it is best to eliminate the liquor
question entirely from politics. If
we are to have the question settled
by the people of the State, let the
executive committee furnish boxes at
the primary election in every county
and allow tbe people to express
themselves on tbe question of liquor
or no liquor." Mixing men with this
questiou will likely not give us the
most efficient officers.

Capt. Charles Ioglesby. a gallant
Confederate veteran, distinguished
lawyer and for thirty-tive years secretary
of the grand lodge of Masons of
this State, died in tbe 68:h year of
hie age, at the residence of his sonin-law,
Dr. E. M. Wbaley, in Columbia,
March 26th. He bad been in
declining health for about two years,
and tbe end, tbougb sudden, was not
unexpected. His remains were buried
io Charleston.
Gen. Carwile has accepted tbe invitation
to hold the reunion of Confederate
veterans in C)lumbiasome
time in May, and tbe citizens are go
ing to entertain the old soldiers in
grand style.
Samuel Wingard Dead.
We have just learned of the death
of Mr. Samuel Wingard, who moved
from this county to Orangeburg
oounty about twenty years ago, and
died there on the 26th February,
1906, in the 78th year of his age. He
will be remembered by the members j
of company K, 20th Regiment, S. C.
V., and was a jovial aDd faithful
soldier, but be has answered the last
roll call here and past over the river
to wait the bngal call above. He
was a good neighbor and citizen and
warm fiiend.

For Thin
Babies
Fat is of great account
to a baby; that is why
babies are fat If your
baby is scrawny, Scott's
Emulsion is what he
wants. The healthy baby
stores as fat what it does
not need immediately for
bone and muscle. Fat
babies are happy ; they do
not cry; they are rich;
their fat is laid up for
time of need. They are
happy because they are
comfortable. The fat surrounds
their little nerves
and cushions them. When
H-iov nrp srrawnv those
nerves are liurt at every
ungentle touch. They
delight in Scott's Emulsion.
It is as sweet as
wholesome to them.

By all means do not forget the
garden. It i9 too important a part
ot every well regulated come to do
overlooked, aDd to have the beet results,
buy your seed at the Bazaar.
There are more rumors afloat to
the effect that another cotton mill
will be built here in the near future
We hope it will prove more than a
rumor. There is plenty of room for
such a mill and it would be a great
benefit to Lexington.
If you are needing furniture of
any kind, rugs, art squares and a lot
of other articles that makes home
comfortable and happy, it is useless
to go elsewhere than to Scott Hendr<x1s.
His prices are always lowest.
Call and see the stock.
Don't you think if we had a system
of water works or water supply from
a stand pipe or steel tank the property
in town would be much safer. In
case of fire it will be too late to call
for water. A bucket brigade wili
not answer evervtime.

The case of Elliott Gunter aDd
