Years ago there was a military celebration, in the course of which various popular military organiza tions andl regiments were made the subljects of orations, eulogies and toasts. One enthusiastic admirer of the Salem Light infantry had care fully prepared a toast which he was sure would swell the hearts of those contnected with the company in ques tion with pride and joy. He proposed to begin as follows: "To the Salem Light Infantry! Let the enemies of our country look on such tro'ops and tremble!'' Unfortunately when the time for the delivery of his toast cam'e his wits deserted him. "The Salem Light Infranty!'' he faltered. "The Salem Light infantry I Let our country look on such troops and tremble!'' WANT OHANGE 80 #miuL. Afternoon Trai Out o lumbia H Over Columbia and Gr vile Line. Railroad Commissioner Earle says that the towns along the route of the al, Columbia and Greenville line of the re Southern are divided as to the pro- 1a, posed afternoon train out of Colum- pi bin and the morning train back this ti way, and that another meeting is' to be gl held in Greenville on the 29th for the ar purpose of attempting to get together th as to what is best to be done for the co greatest number. th Mr. Earle says that the delegations th from Anderson, Belton, Pendleton, ed H1onea Path, Greenwood, . .,lhalla iz, and other smaller points- west of is Newberry were solidly opposed to any change unless a third train were at established to give Columbia what she i needs and wants, while Greenville, st Pelzer. Piedmont. WVilliamston, chap pells, Prosperity. Newberry, PonIa ria, Old Town, Silver Street and ('olum bia are willing to have the train leav ing here at midday changed so as to or' leave late in the afternoon, and the leaving time ot the corresponding train back to Columbia shioved up to : about 7 o'clock in the morning. ta It wotiuld seei frmii Mr. Earle's sziatement that a majortwity of those t in terested want oppolttuitliiy to get into 0'ol1ubia for a day at a time and of chance to reach northeri mail con neutions througl GIreenville, and that to accomplish this a third train will be most desirable. but that a change of schedule will be preferable to no relief at all.-Columbia Record. There is no doubt that Mr. Earle is correct in the statement which he makes to the Coltimbia Record. and the tpeople on the Blue Ridge branch from Belton to Walhalla would not object to a change on the main line I if it did not cause a change in the schedule of the ie Ridge. It was thought best. however. by those who attended tle meeting at Belton toI fe unite in the request for the extra trainls anld to consider the schedules again, at the meeting on the 2htll. To put on the extra train sugest ed and to leave tihe r'iddav trains on. their present schedule would give two v trains out of Greenville towards Co- ut lumnbia within two hours of each oth- on Ci. W e are satisfied that if the ehange, l was once put into operation that all ta those who oppose it at present would tind it so much mor-e conveient that they would wonder why they iad ever opposed such a change. As Mr.. t l'irle states. it will hardly be possible for any change to be made that would 'i meet the approval of everybody, and the only thing for the railroad and e(l railroad commiissioners to do is to of atgree npn some schedule that wil ti have the approval of the majority of t the patrons along that line. Recalled the Name at Last.b Everybody 's Magazine. The stage zoachm that carries theG mail between Kent' Hill and Read tield station in Maine drew up along the roadside and the driver accosted a little old man working in a field.

Moore, IMPROVEMENT -OIETY.* Dw Would It Doto Revive This So clety-The Constitution Adopt- . ed In 1895. In looking over the flles of The Her .1 and News a few .days ago, we atc minded of the fact that in 1895 thI lies of Newberry organized al im ovement society. For some reason, ere has been no meeting of this or nization for several years, and w( e sure that the good work whicl Dy started out to do has not beet mpleted.
