People of Saluda Are Determined to Have It and it Ought To Be Brought by Newberry Saluda has determined to have a railroad. So says a citizen - of the town has been in Newberry the past several days. The road which is de sired and which he says Saluda is go ing to have in the very- near ftlture. will tap the C.. C. & A., the-branch of the Southern between Columbia and Augusta. somewhere about Wards of Johnston, and from that point will be built to Saluda. From Saluda it will be carried either to Newberry or to Greenwood. he says. There are many reasons why Newberry should bestir herself in encouraging the building of the road. and there is every reason why she should see to it that when the road is built it is brought to -Newberry. "Saluda is a rich farming country," said the gentleman from Saluda. "en circled by eight or ten towns ranging in distance from thirteen to twenty two miles. Batesburg. Monetta, Ridge Spring. Wards and Johnson, on the C.. C. -& W., are from thirteen to sixteen miles dis pant: Edgefield to miles: Ninety Six. 22 miles: Chappells. t5 miles; Newberry. 22 miles: and Prosperity about the same distance as Newberry. "Saluda already has a charter giv ing her a line from some point on the C.. C. & A.. to Saluda and thence to Newberry or Greenwood. Mr. Parker. of Abington, Va.. engineer, represent ing prominent capitalists, has spent some time in Saluda recently looking over the route. "The town has already voted bonds to the amount of $t2.ooo and has raised $8.ooo in private subscriptions. making $20.ooo Saluda will give for the aid of the railroad. This amouint she will give now, and she will give much more than that." he concluded. Newberry is now enjoying a large trade from the people of Saluda. A railroad built from Saluda to any other point than Newberry meams. that this trade will be cut off almost entirely. There are many other pressing rea sons why a railroad from Saluda should be brought to Newberry. From the standpoint of Saluda. New berry is the most logical point to which to run the road, and whether or not Newberry will secure it de pends upon Newberry's efforts. It is going to be built soon or latter.

Daniels and Williamson who are conducting one of the best jewelry stores in the tipper part of the state. are prepared to fit glasses fall afflicted with defective vision.

P)resbyerian. a very beautiful service was held on Sunday for foreign missions. The exercises consisted of responsive read ing. singing of hymns, recitations by children, and addresses. In the morning Dr. W. E. Pelham address ed the large'cn.gregation o. the, sub ject. "Foreign Migsions." Dr. Pelham is one of the most active mission workers in the south. and handled his subject in a way that showed he was fully acquainted with his ground. Many interesting facts were brought out in the course of the address. The offering was for the building * of a new boat; t-he Lapsley. which is to cost the sum of $25,ooo; the first Lapsley boat for the Congo river having met with disaster by capsizing last fall. causing the drowning of Rev. H. C. Slaymaker and twenty three native Christian workers. The church has proceeds to construct -a strong and more costly boat, and it is proposed to pay for it by offerings on Children's day. In the afternoon Dr. Pelham ad dressed the Sunday School on "The Story of the Lapsley." The offering by the children approximated fifteen dollars, a very creditable showing. The Lapsley boat is named after Rev. R. A. Lapsley. '.o, when a mission ary a few years ago, laid down his life while engaged in the work. He was a son of Judge Lapsley, of Ala bama. The services at Smyrna were high ly interesting and reflected great cred it on the pasto r,Rev. R. C. Ligon, and on the congregation. Never start a modest man talking about himself if you want to get away in time for dinner. SPECIAL NOTICES. DR. W. G.
