him and we hope he will endeavor to tame
them so that his neighbors can also get the
benefit of their work.

From some unknown cause a freight train
on the Atlantic Coast Line, near Remini,
about twenty miles from Sumter, became
derailed. Fifteen loaded ears were burned,
among them being one containing a large
tank filled with naptha. This tank was
bursted. and the naptha ran several hun
'dred yards in a ditch. A trainman going
back to ascertain the cause of the wreck
ignited the- naptha from the lantern and a
terrible fire resulted. Engineer Jaeger
and Sectionmaster McInnis, while going
back on top of the cars in the effort to un
couple them, found themselves surrounded
by tire. The former jumped to the left
through the nmes and escaped with slight
bruises of the hands and face. The latter'
jumping on the other side, landed in the
ditch of burning naptha and was seriousiy
burned..

Panola News.
PANOLA, April 1G.-As there seems
to be no news collector from this sec
tion I thought I would give you a
few dots occasionally. Our farmers
through this section are nearer up
with their work than those in other
parts that I have seen. All of them
are about through planting corn and
are now putting in what cotton they
intend to plant. The acreage is
small in comparison with the last
few years. They realize that there
is nothing in it, and are planting
more corn and potatoes and such
things as they can live on, which I
think is wise. We are having some
dry, windy weather now, and some
of the older farmers think we are go
ing to have a long dry spell and that
cotton will have a hard time getting
its nose out of the ground.
The Hampton Light Dragoons will
be inspected on the 18th instant, and
it will be the company's fi:-st appear
ance under its new officers, but that
will not make any difference as they
are all ex-cadets.
When it is too wet to work on the
farm we go fishing, but we have
done nothing extra at that this sea
son: only a few white shad and some
flat fish. The largest one caught
this year was a carp out of Scott's
lake by Messrs. J. A. Way and Percy
Harvin. It was two feet ten inches
long and about nine inches in diame
ter and weighed about twenty-five
pounds. It had three quarts of roes.
One like that is enough for one time.

providing for an election to be held

towns, and villages aforesaid; and
said board to be elected (no one of
which board must be connected with

one-fifth of the members of the board
to serve for one year, one-fifth to

CoLUMBIA, S. C., April 15.-The ques
tion of passenger rates has always been
a preplexing one to the railroad com
mission. The latest phase of the ques
tion has come up in the request of the
receiver of the Blue Ridge railroad~ to
Increase the rate on passengersi from
3K to 5 cents per mile. The commis
mission at its last meeting deolined to
make any special ceneession to the
Blue Ridge road and now Receiver
Beattie has renewed his request for an
increase in his rate on the ground that.
it is an absolute necessity in order that
he might keep up the roadway of his
line and offer proper facilities to the
traveling public. In a letter. tp the
commission, which has just been re
eeived, Mr. Beattie says:
The public demand the service and it is 6nl'
a question with them whether they are Vil"ng
to pay increased rtes.or do without the- ser
vice. While in December and January I 414
manage, by very close working and withoqu
any material-repairs to our roadway, to make
expenses in two of the beat months of the year
it does notfollow that I-can do so when busi
ness grows lighter, and it is no reiult to 'run a
railroad on bare operating expensas without
laying away any surplus to provide for "the_
proper maintenance of the tracks or any con
tingency that may arise incident to the rail
road business.
The commission will take up the mati
ter at its next meeting, and to'say the
least it is a perplexing question to,
know what to do in such esses.
Nothing has recently been heard upon
the matter of a general reduction of
passenger rates. Just at this time the
question of a general revision of freight
rates is the supreme consideration, and
up to this time nothing has been done
on the matter in hand. A petition has
been received from citizens at Helena
for a station at that place. The statio
Is on the line of the Laurens railrosd.
The commission will also consider the
matter of changing the rate on hay.

RAILROADS IN THE PALMETTC.
The Walterboro &nd Western Organised.
It Will Go to Denmark.
CHALxsToK, S. C., April 16.-The
permanent organization of the Walter
boro and Western railroad company
has been effected. The new company
ownes the private road of Messrs
Stokes and Rasor, and it Is said that
steps will be taken st once to extend
that line as far westward as Denmark.
The charter of the new company was.
obtained from the last legislature aod'
there has been considerable talk about
what the new concern proposed to do.
The Walterboro gentlemen who were
formerly sole proprietors of the line
have associated with themselves some
well known and progressive business
men in this city, and the scope of oper
ations of the company is to be greatly
extended. Denmark is rapidly becom
ing a railroad centre and the road will
seek the excellent connections which
are there offered it. The South Caro
lina and Georgia, the South-Bound and
the Manchester and Augusta roads all
touch Denmark and- should they be
followed by the Walterboro. and Wes
tern that progressive little city would
have as good railroad facilities as any
city in the state.

Reported by Bradstreets.
NEw YoRm, April 13.-Bradstreets
says:
The feature In trade circles is found In the
prices movement, more particularly those for
cattle, dressed beef, and petroleum. Drouth,
low prices and "hard times" within two years
have resulted in a shorter supply of cattle,
prospectively thirty per cent less than last
year. Live cattle are $1.0) tigher per one hun-.
dred pounds last year ana $1 higher than the
lowest point this year. Dressed beef Is 2%
cents higher than the average last year, the
highest since 1885.
Among more important southern cities re
porting actual gains in the movement of mer
chandise are Atli,nta. Augusta. Savannah and
Galveston. but improvement there is slight.
The outlook Is regarded more cheerfully at
New Orleans. where sugar bounty disburse
ments are expeomtd soon, but at Jacksonville
and Birmingham general trade is quiet and in
some lines slow. Nashville 4d Memphis re
tain improvement prei!ously recorded. Im
proved weather helps trade at Charleston. At
Chattanooga dry goods and hardware are rela
tively most active
