The county supervisor of Lexing" ton county has built a fine road from Chapin to Saluda river on the road to Lexington. This was at one time one of the worst pieces of road between Newberry and Columbia. It was almost imiassable. It is now a beautiful roaOway. The supervisor has taken up large trees by the roots in order to widen the track and low places have been filled and when you reach it you can clip it off almost as fast as your speed lust will permit vrm Thp mad frnm ?he river to Lex ington is in bad condition but we are told that it is to be put in good condition. The natural road between Newberry and Columbia is by way of Spring Hill but there is a stretch of about five miles beyond Spring Hill which ms in a fearful condition but could be - "* - ^ -a mi x. i t Triage a nne roaa. me material is an along the roadway for the building of a good road.

Supervisor Chappell says he is going to do some work on this road to Columbia in Newberry county, starting about the residence of Mr. A. A.

It would be a good thing for Columbia and Greenville and ail the towns and counties through which the road would pass and would pay to keep the road in repair after it was built.

LYCEUM NUMBERS. The College Has Booked Some Splendid Entertainments?Secure Your Tickets Now. The college is offering an unusually strong lyeeum course this winter. The management has taken especial pains to get nothing here except the best and the following list will appeal to every Newberrian as one of the finest that ever appeared in our town. ; The first entertainment to be given, October 27, is by the Apollo Concert company of Chicago. Companies of ' this size and excellence usually con- i fine themselves to large cities and big i prices, but it has been possible to secure a date from them through a 1 lyceum bureau, aDd people who have < 1 "? 1 i AT?

There are five people in the company, all artists, and as the < first number in the course it will set i a high standard. < The second number is the Euclid 1 Male Quartett. Male quartets are al- 1 ways popular with lyceum audiences. 1 A.nd so one of the best programs will 1 be given n our course by the Euclids, in organization of seven years success.

We will have a female quartet. The Beulah Buck quartet has been engaged for a number. This musical club is an easy winner everywh re.

Dr. Sears who lec- j tured here last winter told the manage- ; i ment to be sure to get the Beulaii* Buck quartet for this year, and we l have it. L\nother number will be Ralph Par- j lette. Mr. Parlette has filled over 1 three thousand lecture engagements i in the country. He is known all through the land, and it is time New) befry folks were getting acquainted with this prince of lecturers. He has returned as often as ten times to the same town for lectures. He is a noted humorist and one of the best known nnri hpct Tikpri mpri nn t'hp nlfltfnrm It will be of interest to know that the course includes a cartoonst, Miss Ballou Fiske. She gives one of the most interesting programs ever put into a lyc^um or chatauqua course, and is in great demand. By getting all these numbers from the same bureau it is possible to secure sucn people as Miss Fiske, and the others mentioned, ana ai prices mat wouia be double under other crcumstances. The college has no interest in these lyceum courses except to furnsh entertainment and pleasure for the students and townspeople. If town and college will support these efforts we can always have what othsr good towns have, a series of good lectures and entertainments that will be worth while. Phe Ivceum numbers this winter will all be given in Holland Hall as it is impossible to afford the rent of the jpera house. The proceeds are just Darely enough to pay for the talent. ( [t is best to buy a season ticket as :he price of single admission will be nuch in advance. < In Memory of Rosanna C. Hartman.

IkUlUMRC i ' A Candidate for Congress I Knocks Aiken's Latest Move. CHESHIRE IN SENECA. Will Make a House-to-House I Canvass of Third District. Seneca Farm and Factory. Col. Victor B. Cheshire, candidate for congress, until a few weeks ago editor and owner of the Anderson In telligencer, was in Seneca for a few hours Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Cheshire accompanied him. They were on their way to spend Sunday with Mr. Cheshire's friend, John Abbott, of near New Hope. j During his short stay in Seneca Col. Cheshire was a welcome visitor to Farm and Factory office. He talked interestingly of political matters in Soyuth Carolina, and particularly of his race for congress against Hon. W^att Aiken and Fred Dominick, assistant attorney general of South Carolina. Hs is confident of being in the second race and of defeating his opponent in the final round. Col. Cheshire says that he has not f r\ rl y -r? or Viio nnfira fima try C ?. rx 1 LUU LU U. ^ ? ULiliw.

After he has finished this work he will start out on a house-tohouse canvass of the entire third district. He will travel by automobile and give his entire time to his campaign. Asked as to his opinion regarding Wyatt Aiken's bill to divide the State ; into two Federal districts, thereby creating several new offices, the more important being a judge and marshal, Col. Cheshire said that it was simply , another one of Aiken's moves in behalf of his race for congress There THE uncemei ng Pos XT SUNDAY VSPAPERS udebake >wer DEWBERRY, S. is little chance of the bill passing, said Mr. Cheshire, but in the event it does, Mr. Aiken will have charge of the ^ turning out of several "plums," and in this way help his chances of re-election. T.ie entrance of Mr. Cheshire into the congressional fight makes it sure that there will be warm times in .the lunu ui?'ih:l lit'Ai year, ne will oe one of the most energetic campaigners that ever mounted a stump in ^ South Carolina. Through his connection with The Intelligencer, which under his management was one o? the most influential papers in the upper part of the State, he has be~ come widely known and liked by the people of this district, and in all probability he will make a good showing in the forthromiTisr rarp?Ariv ^ - - .

The line extends to Little \ Mountain, S. C., and furnishes service ' to the following well-known people: J. B. Lathan's store and J. H. Wise's store. The subscribers on the line are now in constant telephonic communi cation with each other and through the Sou:hern Bell exchange with telephone users at Prosperity. The construction of this line and its connection with the telephone exch-inge here is another step in the progress of telephone development which is being made by the residents in the rural sections of Newberry county^ j Under the plans of the Southern Bell and Telegraph company, farmers and other rural .dwellers are "enabled to secure telephone service on an economical basis. As a result farmers in all sections of the State are installing telephones in their homes and places of business.
