More about the Newberry and Laa
rens Ball Road Purchase.
The announcement of the sale of the
Laurens Railroad to Mr. W. O. Childs,
of Columbia, as the representative of a
syndicate, was not a surprise he<e. It
lias been known for some time that Mr.
Oh lids has been anxious to seoure the
bonoQt of such a connection. Mr
Childs was seen this morning at his of
fico with reference to the reported pur
chase, and he replied that it was true
that he and others bad purchased the
Laurens Road, as was reported in The
News and Courier, and that for the
present, at least it would not be well to
say much about the possible result of
the purchase. The transfer would be
made in a few days, and then arrange
ments would bo made as to schedules*
It was, however, the intention to run
the line in the interests of Columbia
in every way possible, as a large share
of the purchase money was represented
by Columbians A daily train would
bo put on, whioh would allow the peo
ple along the lino to oome to Columbia,
transact their business and return to
their homos on the same day. Such a
train would arrive in Columbia about
10 o'clock In the morning, and return
ing would leave Columbia about 5 in
the afternoon. The line will be de
veloped in every way possible, so as to
mako it contribute as muoh business as
possible.
Tho Laurens R >ad runs from Helena,
near Newborry to Laurens Court
House, a distanco of thirty miles, and
at Laurens it meets with the Port
Royal and Western Carolina Road, and
at (Mint on with the Seaboard Air Line
and the Columbia, Newberry and Lau
rens Road, whioh is peculiarly Colum
bia's line.
It Is understood that the purchase of
the Laurens Road by Mr. Childs does
not moan that it has been purchased
for or by the Columbia, Newberry and
Laurens, and that it was a mere cir
cumstance, in no way connected with
the Columbia, Newberry and Laurens
Rail road that Mr. Childs, the presi
dent of that line, made the purohaso.

"I Want It But I Can't Afford It."
WHAT?
Good Bicycle
-*r?p
Would You Accept A First Class High Grade
Bicycle if it Were Offered You Fixe?
The Advertiser will give n line Bicycle to the boy or girl, man
or woman or child who will bring in the largest list of subscribers be
tween now and February i, i8'j6, the cash to accompany the subscrip
tion.
Is an "Acme" Machine made by the Acme Cycle Company, o.
Elkhart, Indiana. The Winner of the Machine may make his
own selection from their catalogue.
The "Acme" Bicycles cost One Hundred, Ninety and Eighty
live Dollars each. The winner makes his or her choice from the
Catalogue, regardless of price.
All you have to do is to get cash subscribers to The Advertiseh
Any l)oy 01 gill can pet subscribers. Any person young or old can gel
this fine bicycle by making a little effort. A list of live subscribers may
win it. If a lady wins the bicycle she may gel a ladies' wheel. Or sht
may get a gentleman's wheel and sell it if she prefers.
It is a good plan to begin work at once.
As soon as you get a subscriber send in his name and the mono) so
that the paper may be promptly sent to him. State that you arc a con
testant for the bicycle and an accurate list will be kept of all the names
you send. Two half year or four three months subscribers wi ' be
counted in the contest as one.
No Loss -Possible.
Nit Even of Time. "If I don't get the largest list I shall have had
my trouble for nothing" you say. No you won't cither. The adver
tiser will give at the end of the contest, except to the winner of the
bicycle, twenty-five cents for each subscriber sent in by a contestant.
So if you get forty subscribers you may win the bicycle. If you don'i
you get ten dollars anyhow.
No person in any way connected with The ADVERTISER will be
allowed to enter the contest.
Don't lose a minute. Begin at once. Who gets the "jump" has
big advantage.
