On Tuesday evening about 3:30 o’clock Mr. John Taylor was instant ly killed by the Coast Line train, i It seems that Mr. Taylor had been at Montmorenci several hours, where he had carried a wagon to have re- i paired, and was assisting in the work himself in order to get back home as early as possible, and would have soon left. But just then the Richardson Guards came up to take the 4:30 train I to Columbia, but having an hour to wait they fell in line, and commenced drilling. Mr. Taylor, either wanted to speak »o some of the company, or wanted to : to see them drill, and left the shop going to the railroad. The Coast Line train ran through the station just as I he crossed the road, and before he was clear the train struck him and knocked him about fifteen feet, land ing him against a freight car which was standing on the side track. He was examined immediately and it was fonud that his neck was broken | aud other bruises on his body which j caused instant death. The train was stopped fora few min- 1 utes aud then went on, but it stopped I at Windsor, and the conductor wired for Coroner Couch, who went down aud held the inquest. Tim Jail ContiMct. Sold Out.

There were eight or ten bids put in, some of the largest jail builders in the United States being among the number. The Stewart iron Works, of Cincinnati, Ohio, got the contract, being the low est bidder. Their bid was for $5,946.00. Their agent Mr. J. H. Ancrum was here and exhibited a model of the pro posed cells. Representatives from four other large concerns went before the board and each represented his house or works as the largest in the United States. The following is a list of the bid ders showing the amount of their hid : The Hall Safe and Lock Works of Cincinnati, O $7,778.00 The DetroH Safe Company 8,000.00 The Van Dorn Iron Works, of Cleveland, 0 7,946.79 The Pauley Jail Building Man ufacturing Co. of, St. Louis.

Jordan The Diebold Safe and Lock Co., of Canton, O The Mosler-Bahmann Safe and Lock Co., Cincinnati, O The Stewart Iron Works, of Cincinnati, 0 5,946.00 All of the agents when pressing their claims before the Board took oc casion to commend the excellent plans of Architect Goodrich. If these plans are followed Aiken will have a model jail, that Mr. Goodrich says will be equal to any jail in the South, burglar-proof and perfectly sanitary. Six of the cells will be made of chrome steel, which is the hardest steel made. The contractor will be required to give bond* in the sum of $5,000 for the faithful performance of the w r ork, and the job is to be completed by the 1st of February. The Board employed Mr. Goodrich to superintend the job which is a guar antee that it will be a good job. Mr. Goodrich say- Aiken is getting a very cheap job, as he had estimated that it would cost about $10,000. 8,774.50 7,400.00 7,400.00 6,815.00 Who Wrote these Words?
