rHREB (
GEORGIA-CA ROLINA
FAIR
OPENS NOVEMBER THE SEV
ENTH AND CONTINUES
THROUGHOUT THE
WEEK
Augusta, Ga.? The organ
ization of the Georgia-Carolina Fail
was the result of the untiring effort:
of influential citizens of this city anc
vicinity to have an annual fall shov
to exploit the resources of the wonderful
Savannah River Valley. Mr
James U. Jackson has been president
of the association ever since
its organization and to his untiring
efforts much of the success tha. has
been attained is due. The first
thing to think of when it was decided
to have an annual fair was a location.
The association decided
upon a tract of land about two miles
from the heart of the city and on
the north side of the Lake View car
line, just to the east of the lake ttself.
Work was begun shortly after
the purchase was made and a
magnificent main fair building waj
erected. A race track was buill
which is said to be one of the fastest
half mile race courses in the
country and a grand stand with a
seating capacity of 1,800 was next
put up. A large number of stable*
tor live stock were built and a high
plank fence constructed around the
rrrAimrJe TV..-? ? ~ ?l
f^isyuu'iJi x ill w /VOl O d^U VVI1CI1
the Augusta Poultry Club decided
to have its annual show ai the fair a
commodious two si buiiuing was
erected. The buildins* and grouddj
owned by the Georgia-Carolina
Fair Association are estimated tc
be worth in the neighborhood of
$75,000, which is a large sum fcj
an organization of its kind to havt
as assets. It can be seen from this
statement of the wealth of the association
and its backing by the trip
business men of the community that
there is some reason for this city tc
feel proud of her annual fair and
can afford to boast quite a bit re"
garding the superior attractions that
will be seen here at the cominp
fair which opens on Nov. 7th.
The view from the fair grounds i<
magnificent. On the Carolina side
of the Savannah River the Hamptor
Terrace Hotel on the crest of a great
hill, nearly 300 feet above the cit>
proper, stands as a wonderful example
of the modern tourist hostlery
It was erected by northern capital
i ,ts ^t a cost of nearly three quart.
I ers of a million dollars and is fill ec
with quests each winter.
On the west side and the soutl
side of the fair grounds is Lak<
View park and Summerville. th<
most famous winter resort in thi:
section of thi country. The placit
, waters cf Lake View are within ;
few hundred feet of the main fai
. building and on delightful autum
afternoons boating is a favorite spor
Taking everything into consider
ation it may be said with utmos
, candor and witnout fear of contra
diction that Augusta has the bes
fall fair in this part of the countr;
1 and with grounds superbly located

375 acres of good land locate*

[NEW BANK I

r Lexington, Oct. 18.?The Bank
of Pelion, located on the Pefry extension
of the Southern railway,
opened its doors for business Thurs,
day. This is the ninth bask in Lex- "V
, ington county and the business so
far done by the new institution is
said to be far in excess of the expectations
of the promotors.
Following is a list of the officers1
L W Wise, president; 1) F Shumpert
first vice president; C R Rish, second
vice president, and J D Haiti- ^
. wanger, cashier.
The bank has the following board sl
of directors: L W Wise. J D Haiti(
wanger, D F Shumpert, C R Rish, 31
, DrDR Kneece, Jas E Dunbar and
, W H Sharpe. ^
tl
The new bank is but another evidence
of the growth and develop- hi
ment of the famous sand hills of e;
1 Lexington county. This growth Is jc
: due, in large measure, to the extern
rr
. sion of the Southern railway from
Columbia to Perry.
Pelian is growing every day. The *(
town has three churches, a number
of stores, and a school which runs ,
1 nine months in the year. I

' white man, giving his name as Cal'
vin Deaton, charged with stealing a
gold watch and $100 from a travel:
ing man between Augusta and Wards
J on the northbound passenger train

this morning. The party from whom
? *he prope<ty was stolen gave his |
: name as John B Mann and stated
I that he was engaged in the produce
business and lived in North Carolina.
(Both
men boarded the Southern ,
h
" train in Augusta this morning, Deaton
having a ticket for Bate~burg and
" Mann one for some point in North
j Carolina. It seems that they sat to
gethei for some distant e and DeatII
on moved to ano'.hci seat. Mann
" | then missed his watch and asked

most \iolently knowing anything at
bout it and when he saw that he was

was arrested at Wards and the wari
