From the annual report of the railroad commission we take the following in re- j ference to the Denmark uuion depot: i ^he Denmark station, so many years \ thrsource of contention, is still unsettled ; or incomplete. A recent order of the ; commission, directed to the Seaboard Air j Line railroad and the Southern railway, requiring suitable sheds to be erected from ? the union station at this point to the land- ( ing places along the tracks of said roads, < and thence along the said landing places < for a reasonable distance, so that passen- ; gers passing from the trains to the sta- i tion, or in an opposite direction, may be ( protected from rain, has been complied with on the part of the Southern railway \ in a most unsatisfactory manner, the Sea- ( board Air Line having done nothing, j The sheds erected by the Southern rail- \ way offer practically 110 protection, while 1 the under-pining obstructs the already 1 too narrow walks. In fact the station , presents very strikingly the picture of a j reluctantly performed task. We recalled this matter to the attention of your honorable body in our last report, and would not do so here again, but for the fact that the situation at that point is such an outrage to the traveling public that the necessity for improvement should oe emphasized here by petition." i First Load of the Season. We have just received a carload of fine stock, the first new load of the season for Bamberg. We have in this lot twentyfive of the finest mules we have ever handled, also a pair of beautiful matched black horses. Be sure to see this load of stock before you buy. We have the animals to suit you, and the prices are right. Jones Bros. ?\ mm Sales Last Monday. Last Monday Col. T. J.
