Day after day the trains continue behind their schedules to an exasperating de gree. Especially is this the case be tween Augusta and Columbia and Charleston. It seems as if the schedules along the old South Carolina railway have been arranged with indiftirence to the welfare of Charleston. Formei ly one could go to Charleston by by the morning train, and re turning by the night train, have five and half hours in the city to transact business; and what of the most importance is th at he had one hour more there before the business men went home to their dinners. Under the pre sent schedule he has only three and a quarter hours in Charles ton, and of this shortened time, on hour less before the city’s din ner hour. *• Even if the trains made sched ule time the conditiods are bad enough, but when they run be hind so constantly, it is impra- cticticable for one to run down to Charles tot, and accomplish anything, and return that even ing..

Bangs, the contractors who will pio-« bably budd the Panama canal, are waiting for the Isthmain canal com mission to take action upon the propo sition tfiey presented Saturday to con struct the canal for 8 75 per cent above ‘the government estimate of the total cost There seems to be no ^oubt that the canal commission will within a few ■days make the award. The proposal of the Oliver-Bangs combination is now being carefully scrutinized by T. P. Shout*, chairman of the com Mission, and Richard R. Rogers, general counsel. When a con clusion is reached and the contract is formally executed Mr. Oliver and Mr. Bangs will set in motion the great ma chine with which, they will b ild the canal, Mr. Oliver will go to the isth mus at once and there personally su perintend this work, the largest and m ist important ever given a contrac tor. The contractors will take over the whole plant owned by the government in Panama, and will at on* e begin shipping additional materiels to the isthmus. They must, in accordance with the terms of the contract, begii* actual work within sixty days from the execution of the instrument. Southern negroes will be used ex clusively for labor by Mr. Oliver. Conditions in Panama are somewhat similar to those in some of the South ern states, where Mr. Oliver has done muck work, and he is doubtless more familiar with the methods of handling negro labor than an}’ other contractor in the United Slates. He will take 5.0;X) negroes to Panama with him. vnd maybe more will be taken out of the South. He has not rea<*hed a decision about the use of Chinese laborers. the matter, dee. ly affects a variety throughout the state. McMaster’s bill to forbid the sale of c >caine except by prescription and un- uer the i ersonal supervision of a phy sician under heav» penalty pass d by an overwhelming majority. The debate developed the fact that the evil is growing in an alarming de gree. especially among negroes. Mr. McMaster said he had been told by Columbia druggists that there are 1,000 such ffends in Columbia alone. Rut resentative Wyche, who is a phy sician, said he would rather sell whis key by the krjnk in defiance of law con stantly than sell one dose of cocaine, so teirible was the result of the latter drug in undermining morals. Representative Dixon’s bill to re quire county officers to make m re de tailed reports and submit them regu larly to the courts passed by a large majorty. It seeks to obviate the ne cessity for so many investigations of county finances and their resultant scandals. The Asgunbly did not meet on Satur day, the being a legal holiday. The house committee on railroads has reported unfavorably a bill for bidding the' roads from keeping any dispatcher or block operator on duty for more than eight out of any twenty- four consecutive hours. and providing a penalty of $100 for each offense, the amount te be sued for by the railroad commission. The other bill which was unfavor ably reported was one requiring all common carriers, operating as many as six trains in ea h direction on a sin gle track during any twenty-four hours, to establish within six months after the ratification of the act, what is fcnown as the block system, under the usual block system rules and regula tions. For each day of non-compli ance after after the ratification of the act it was provided that the offending c unpany should pay a penalty of $100, 11 be used for by the railroad commis sion, in the name of the state. Mr. Croft’s bill to limit the speed of trains and locomotive engines in towns and cities was a'so re, orted unfa or- ably. DAV3S.

Lee was cele brated by the Edward Croft Chapter, Daughters of the Confederacy by a re ception to tiie Confederate veterans at Mrs. P. A. Emanuel’s residence on Barnwell avenue. The hymn. “How Firm a Founda tion Ye Saints of the Lord” was first sung to the piano accompanymcnt by M iss Dowr. Mr. Emanuel then read an interesting extract from Mrs. Pickett’s book on Gen. Lee, and the other hymn. For All the Saints Who from their Lab r Rest,” was then sung. These \v**ie followed by the reading of short aticles by some of the veterans; the singing of “The Bonny Blue Flag ” and “Dixie,” and interesting talks by Mr. R. J. Wade and t apt. John M. Bell.
