BOMB MOKE KAILiKOAD TALK. Humors tluit tho C., O. & O. System Muy He Extended. L. E. Norrye, secretary of tho An derson Chamber of Commerce, last Saturday gave tho Dally Mall the following: v While tho people of Anderson and the State ar0 working and hoping for the . oxtenslon of tho Blue Ridge road, there ls hoard "a still small volco" from another direction that thrills with hope and gives visions of a prospect of a material develop ment that is highly gratifying If not entirely satisfying. There ls a rumor in the air-so strong that lt takes tho shape of a definite fact-that before the Ides of March again approach, tho Carolina, Cllnohfleld & Ohio railway will be actively engaged in extending its Uno of railroad from Spartanburg to [Greenville, Anderson, Athens and on to Atlanta or Macon, and ultimately to Brunswick, on tho coast. If such a thing as this does take definite shape, and lt ls possible that lt has already been worked out, lt can ho readily seen that, lt will operate very storngly to stimulate tho Southern In tho extension of the Blue Ridge, and In many other ways give Ander son a tremendous push forward in material development. It ls an accepted fact that the Chesapeake & Ohio, the Carolina, Cllnohfleld & Ohio, the Seaboard Air Line road and the Duke trolley sys tem, known as the Piedmont and Northern, are owned virtually hy the Bame stockholders; that tho finances of each of these separate corporations come ft ?ra tho same source, and that each of the roads is working to the advantage of all the others. So closely allied are these roads, the rumor would have us believe, that the C., C. & O. will actually use the roadbed of the trolley system into Greenville and Anderson. And there are circumstances which appear to hear this out, which are these: First. Tho roadbed is being built 011 a 1 per cent, or less, grade. Second. The fact that SO-pound steel rails are to ho used. Third. The recent purchase of IS acres of lani, partly in and partly outside of tho eily limits, on the ex tension oi Welch avenue, and at a point where it ls proposed to branch olY from tho Boulevard linc, and a place well suited for a depot. From this point the proposed line tb .the Orr Cotton Mills could he retlchcd and used ns a part of tho ni Mn line on to Athens. It ls In ex actly the right direction. These facts are significant at least. lt is a well known fact that the C., C. & 0. is bottled up in Spartan burg. lt is compelled to pay the Southern railway ?l per ton out of a .*2 per ton rate to move its coal to Carolina points, and on the same pro portion on other tonnage. Its ally, the Seaboard Air Line, cannot be reached nearer than Greenwood. The Atlantic const line stands in the samt; relation to the C.. C. ?? O. as does the Sou I hern, these two hoing nuanc ed by entirely different men to those financing Ibo C., C. & O. and tho trol ley ay ul em and tho Seaboard Air Lino. This being true, it. ts only rea sonable lo suppose. that the C.. c. & 0. must seek an outlet, and this fact gives '.olor to I he rumor above stated. if thosa rumors he truo, it eau be seen thft the C.. C. & (). will only touch the corporate limits of Ander son and the trolley system will dis tribu?* the freights over tl. . city, un der its charter rights to operate ex press and the same, doubtless, will be done al Greenville. Whether these rumors be true or not, there are big things in store for Anderson if her people will only get busy. The world ls rapidly learning Hui Anderson county la one of tho greatest agricultural counties in the South. The people ol' the county and (ily have been through tho crucible Of experience In a financial way. They aro strictly on their feet ngaln and have tho benoni of expe rience, and from this t i mc? forward, every enterprise started In Ander son county will bo a success from the beginning. These Tacts are rapidly hoing learned hy the outside world, ind Anderson county ls sure to reap !? harvest of success in the next low yea rs. - . - -* . She Found the Dope, The mistress of Ibo house had been lo a concert, and when she re turned she was mot by tho servant with: "Baby was vory ill while you were out, mum." "0, dear!" said Mrs. Youngwlfo. "ls ho bettor?" "Oh, yes, mum; he's all right now. But he was bad at first. 1 lound his medicino In tho cupboard." "Good gracious! What have you given tho child? There ls no medi cino In tho cupboard." "Oh, yes there ls; lt's written on it." And then the girl triumphantly produced a bottle labeled "Kid Re viver." .fr TUM POWER OP .J. SOUTHERN WOMEN. ?g* .?. .j. .?. .j. .j. .j. .?. ?I? ?J? ?J? ?J? ?J? If I had the silver tongue of a Webster, or a Clay, or a Calhoun, or If I could uso the pen of a ready writer, 1 would write with tho point of a diamond, ii letters of gold, and I would place thom In pictures of silver, and I would hang them up In the halls of ame, where kings and potentates could road and know what the Southorn women did In the bloody struggle of the sixties. Their deeds of mercy will be as so many stars In their crowns of re joicing, which will shine forovor and ever. That power has been seen and felt tn this Southland since Colum bus first discovered this great coun try; that same power followed thc multitude and shaped the destinies of the Southorn Statos; that powei guarded the cradle of Washington Jofferson, Lee, Jackson and Davis; that same power charmed Lafayette and captured the young Napoleon; that power sent into the field one o the grandest armies that was evoi marshaled upon a battle-field. I was composed of the very bud ant flower of the American nation. Tba same po wo . fed and clothed tba army from tho first to the last day of the Confederacy. Tho mothers and daughters of th' sixties wore our ministering angels as aro the women to-day tho custo diana of the graves of our heroe who died for us. Nowhere In th history of any country did tho beroi women play a greater part In niak lng history than did the mothers an daughters of the sixties. They ar the uncrowned queens of our heart -the Inspiration of every noble an chivalrous deed. Her chiefest Vii tues, however, do not exhale thel sweetest fragrance in their brlgl hours of prosperity; it is in Hi dark, sad hours of adversity tin tliey shine with more brilliant Instr for lt ls her sacred mission to wli away tears, to soften sorrows an heartaches, and to bind up with toi der, loving hands the open woum of grief. How truly can this be sa of our Southern women of Confeti rate times. From the time tl buglers sounded the first alarm war until the smoke of the last bi) tie celarod away they were unfallin ly 'rue. Wim thc Greek mothers sent th? sons out lo war they told thom come back bearing their shields, como back upon thom. The Confe erato mothers did more than tba they wont upon the fields of batt and with their own loving han laid their dead sons upon th? shields. They followed the sick a wounded to the hospitals, bindi up their bleeding wounds, and coi lng their fevered brows. Many Confederate soldier, just before passed to his reward, felt upon 1 feverish brow the soothing touch a gentle hand, and heard from fi lips words of divine hope and ins ration, as soft and sweet as angel's prayer. These ministering angels did i stop when tho war closed and pet was made, but they came togeth (I believe lu the city of Rlchmom and said that the chivalry and co age of the Confederate soldier m live in granite, marble, brass o silver. All over this Southland th monuments and shafts will be a ing witness to tho loving devot of the Confederate soldiers to tl country. And that Hag--yes, t Hag 1 love as a mother loves her fl born, that so proudly floated f years on land and sea-will live tho hearts of Southern people long as stone will bear tho mark the engraver's chisel, and long ye after every old veteran has ansv ed his last roll call; and when ye ami years have rolled away, tl grim sentinels In marble, and gt Ito, and brass, and iron, will out from the posts at which you li stationed them, "All ls weill All well!" And every year when springt comes across this Southland, when tho little birds sing t sweetest carols, and nature's bon lui hand fills thc verdant hills < music, and bloom, and beauty-I lt is that these Daughters of Confederacy will come and ga those Howers, and, with tel hearts and loving hands, lay t upon these low tents, whose curt never backward swing, and all soft whispering winds shall c their requiem. And that win river, the Chickamauga, and blue water; of the Rappahani shall sing their lullaby, while everlasting hills that looked on charge tboy made, and shook tho roar of their conflict, and h tho dying groans, shall keep w around their sleeping dust until trumpet shall sound In that n lug. And those monuments and si In marble and granito all over fair land, which have been on by tho untiring effort of devoted men, will bo tho most pou speakers. Their speech will b SOMLE OF YOUNG'S REASONS, Ohio Buso Hull Player Never Forgets lils Business. (Greenville Piedmont.) Cy Young, who has tho greatest record ever made by a pitcher, when asked how ho has managod to keep in the gamo, pitching winning ball about twice OB long as tho host of thom usually last, gave a very clear and lucid statement of his ideas of what causes contributed to his suc cess. His rules of conduct, If follow ed in many othor lines of endeavor would onsuro success therein. Ile says: "I just mind my own business, behave myself and refuse to worry." That's a good rulo for minister, law yer, doctor, 'business man, clerk or anybody oise. His next statement of a reason for his success is worth attention, espe cially from those who are paid sal aries or wages. Ho says: "Then I work hard. That counts for a lot. I always remember, when I am out in tho lot, that I am working for some men who are paying me a salary, and lt's up to me to earn it, and not to try to teach the umpires their business, or to do anything except pitch as good ball as 1 can." What a lesson there ls In that for tho employee, who keeps so busy worrying over the boss's mistakes or trying to teach his follow employees their duties, that he has not suffi cient time In which to do the work for which he ls paid. Some of Young's othor maxims, ac cording to which he has lived, so that he has not only been a success as a base ball player, but has accumulat ed a fortune estimated in excess of ono hundred thousand dollars, are well worth following by others than ball players. Among them are these: "Be earnest. "Cut out dissipation. "Form regular habits. "Keep in condition all the year round. Remember that your mind has got to be on your work if you aro to succeed. "Never let the Important fact es cape ..ou that you are In the game to play ball, not to help with the um piring. Let Hie umpires earn their salaries, and you earn yours. "Bear in mind that you will prob ably live some years after you quit playing ball, and save your money." No wonder Young has been a suc cess, for he lives up to his rules, and when ho does get through playing hall, ho will retire to a big, well-kept farm at Pod 1.1, Tuscarawas county, Ohio, to enjoy life for many years more. He will go Into retirement in perfect physical health, and with out, leaving an enemy among . ball players, umpires or fans. Ten Injured lu Big Explosion.

Atlanta, Sept. 1.-When the local switchboard of a small rural tele phone community went completely out of commission a night or two ngo -a-.thing never heard of before In its career-friends in the city were naturally perturbed at not hoing able to reuch their country cousins, and In tho morning phoned again to inquire the cause. Tho message caine back that tho exchange had been put out of com mission by bod bugs! Tho natural Inference here was that bed bugs had eaten up the lady operator, and her friends exclaimed, "Alas." But that wasn't tho way of lt at all, though the supposition was not unwarranted. Further Information developed the fact that tho pesky lit tle vermin had got behind tho switchboard at tho central office, where they had fed, waxed fat and prospered, banqueting the while on the parafine that covered some of the electric wires. Elke tho reflec tion attributed to Daniel In the lion's den, this was one dinner after which there weren't any speeches leastwise not. over those telephone wires. It was an amusing mishap such as probably has never occurred in the whole realm of telephone his tory before and never will occur again. A gallon of bod bug extermi nator and a little work on t'..e part of a lineman soon put phones hack into commission. For several years past telephones have been gradually coming to be regarded as just as much of a neces sity In rural districts as in the cities, and tho whole South ls now thread ed with rural telephone connections. This Is the first recorded time that any rural ornee has gone out of com mission even for a night, except In time of terrible storm. *l**I**I**P*l*>l**r>>p,,I<'>I< Does Your Baby Sutler From Skin Disease?
