The tonn is beautifully laid out, with streets 108 feet wide, and three rows of trees down each—one on either side, and one down the central. Very diirerent is it in these respects from the towns first settled in tins country by emigrants from the old world.

Cheraw has good rail road connections and is on the eve of better. Her business men are pro gressive. Not folding their hands and waiting for business to seek them they reach out after it and they get it, too. A sock factory they thought a good investment. Only a few months after, and the factory is in successful operation, and 1<K) dozen pair is the daily output.
