A wreck Saturday and a six hours delay Sunday was the record of one week and the beginning of another on the Blue Ridge Railway.

The trestle waa cleared by eight crosstiea when the passenger coach struck the "draw head," which had fallen across the track, jumped the track, yan e, short distance ou the ties, creepe? over and stood still. Eight, or ten 'passengers were aboard, including* tbtte ladies. None waa seriously hurt,. but several were bruised, and the ladiu.were bad ly frightened.

Neither- was thrown from the buggy, but Miss Stevenson was kicked lathe forehead. The horse I was not shod and the blow glanced, which, undoubtedly saved her life. The skin was broken just above the eyes three inches across and to the skull and turned upward about an ' inch. The shock was terrible, but the young lady did not lose consciousness. Assistance was rendered immediately I by others of the visiting party and she Was taken back to the home of Clar ence Dean. She was covered with blood and her friends were excited and anxious. Dr. Gray responded prompt ly to a telephone call, stitched np the wound, made the young lady comfort able and allayed the fears of the many friends by assuring them the woun-*. was not serious. Miss Stevenson re- , turned home the next afternoon and is getting along alright. Her companion was considerably bruised, but not se riously hurt. ._ A Serious Problem Confronts Next j Legislature. I COLUMBIA, Sept, 5.-The biggist proposition that the Legislature will run up against next year will be that of taxation and appropriation o. Those, who are familiar with the financial conditions' are already studying the matter, and they see breakers ahead. The. State has to borrow about $800,000 this year. Other treasurers bave had to supply deficits 'in the re ceipts so as to tide the State over until taxes came in, but this time it appears that even whee taxes come in the de ficit cannot be wiped ont. Thia is a serious condition of affairs and the prospect io that the next Legislature will have to practice' the strictest econ omy.. Appropriations during the past year or two have been of an extraordi nary character. For instance, there was an appropriation of $50,000 to the Charleston- Exposition. Then $100,000 was added - to the pensions, and os j usual Winthrop came ip for its annual demand for more, above its ordinary appropriations: ' These are but few of the largest ap propriations, and in them may be in cluded lin al payment on the State House. This and the Charleston Ex position may. be eliminated from con sideration in this year's estimates, but still the Legislature will find itself "hard up" to meet the ordinary expen ditures, . The only way out of the dilemma is to reduce expenses or increase the levy. It is feared that when it comes to a ieduction that the State Colleges will suffer because that seems, strange to say, the place where they always want to nse the maning knife. Clemson Set an extraordinary amount of money rom the privilege tax, and another effort will- be made during the next Legislature to divert^that sum into the treasury and let Clemson got appropriations according to its needs just -like* other colleges do. This wonld increase thu ordinary revenue of the State considerably, but not enough to make up the deficit. The mere suggestion of raising the tax levy wonld raise ouch a storm that there is no man in the Legislature whp would back up the move. So that may be dismissed from, consideration, and the whole thing revolved itself around to the starting place and that ia that economy will have to be practiced and expenses cut down and ft is going to take wise statesmanship to doit and do injustice to none, Alice News.
