Chicago would have had no existence
and the Fair itself a physical im
possibility. From the earliest his
tory of the human race to the l&th
century there was practically no
improvement in the methods of
transportation, and it remained
for the present century, and that too
in the memory of some still living,
to revolutionize and bring to a state
of practical perfection the problem
of rapid transit, which next to Un-
invention of printing, has been the
greatest boon, in a material way, and
the most potent civilizer ol the
human race.

than the old-fashioned stage coaches

for twelve passengers each. Thi

ran al the rate of ten or twelve miles
an hour. On aa adjoining track
stood the Turnout! locomotive UUU,
belonging to the Hudson river and
Central railroad, that had attained
the marvellous speed of lli! miles

but from foreign countries as well.
The English and French exhibit
some of their first-class locomotives,
which are constructed eu au entirely
different plan from those of our
country, lacking the cowcatcher and
the cub that are considered such es
sential features iu the American lo
comotive. The English first-class
passenger cars arranged in compart

marvels of splendid upholstering,

In road '.chicles, the French ex
hibit, while smaller than some oth

and contained the largest number
of stylish caariagea, some of which
were magaillcieutly upholstered and
were very costly. This department
contained everything from a bycicle
to the ponderous two-story omnibuses
that are used in the streets of Paris.
To give an idea of the cost of some
of the vehicles there was in the
American exhibit, a hearse, the price
of which was $12,000. In addi
tion to the land vehicles there was
an exhibition of boats from almost
every country ou the globe. The

Whom he had not seen for a good
many years.
A number of our citizens suffered
* the km of some very fine ornamental
trees that could not withstand the
luryef tbe recent storm. Some va-
tieties of ornamental trees are very
Uttl^and easily suceumb to a severe
gale. One of the large oaks iu front
of Mr. W. G. Dickson’s residence,
OH Pearl street was blown down. It
was very old and had held out against
•very storm previous to the late one.
The large iwecfc gum tree in rear of
Hmiiti elweh ww »]«t
made of a stay law, aud no resolution
to that effect introduced. It is very
evident that tho Darlington county
farmers have no idea of asking the
Legislature to pass an act that will
he ruinous to those whom it propos
es to benefit. They will face the
situation like the honest men that
they are, aud not let the hard tcims
prevent them from meeting their
honest obligations.
After the adjournment of the Al
liance a public meeting was held to
discuss the situation. Mr. W. II.
Lawrence was the chairman of this
•meeting. Those present were ad
dressed by Air. E. Keith Dargan,
President of the Peoples Bank of
Darlington. Both of these gentle
men assured the people that the fi
nancial outlook was brightening
every day and that they felt sure
that there would be no trouble iu

The contrast between the models of
these monster ships and thoie of the

greater tlnu that presented by the

better illustration of human ingenu

methods of laud transportation, be
ing not only a marvel of machinery,
but also having to solve the prob
lem of safety against wind aud

transportation alone would not have
sufficed to develop, iu such a short
time, tho great resources of our
country, had not the great steamers
of the present day taken the place
of the vessels that had to depend on
the wind for their propulsion, for
without those the people who wished
to leave the overcrowded countries
of Europe and seek homes in our
new and undeveloped country, could

have covered or washed away the

Fruit trees are stripped of their

Oconee county in the west to Horry

will probably show a smaller yieh
than is now expected.

A Little Bag of Gild Clin List by
the Editor of “The Messenger.”
Florence Messenger.
Imagine your mortification should
you retire to bed some night under
the full impression that you bad in
.your purse nearly enough of good
hard cash to pay your ckpences on a
trip to the World’s T mr and, on wak
ing the next morning, find that you
did not possess enough money to pay
for a postage stamp. Such was the
experience of the editor of this paper
on Saturday night last. About the
hour of 6 o’clock Saturday evening
he hud in his pocket a little tobacco
bug containing one tweuty-dollar
gold piece and six or eight live-doilai-
pieces of the same metal, which he
had been keeping as a sort of nest-
egg, aud which was all tho money he
had. He retired Saturday night ful
ly under the 'JMpression that the
precious packing was still in his
pocket, whfre Jre had carried it for
several weeks. But on Sunday, to
his dimay, he discovered that it was
missing. Dilligent search was made,
but to no purpose. Nothing has
been seen either of the little bag or
its glittering contents since the hour
above mentioned. It was evidently
drawn from the pocket in which it
had been placed by getting entangled
iu a bunch of keys which arc fre
quently used, aud c pped unnotic

Credit does uqft inhabit the South

There is no reason in the nature of

Credit does not thrive where there

The Sale of Books to fontlnie as
Now.'Jiut n Uniform Percentage
of Profit Must be Charged.
Columbia Journal
The b juks to be used by the pub
lic schools of the State for the next
live years have been adopted. There
is but little change in the old list, as
will be seen by u perusal of the list
published below.
The State Board of Examiners
were in session iu the Senate cham
ber all day yesterday and far into
the night. Tbeir session was long
but their work effective.
They discussed the plan of school
book depositories as advocated by
Fresident Craighead and gave it
consideration in tbe light of conn-
ciljof the County School Commis
sioners who were here in consulta
tion with them on that matter and
upon the advisability of changes in
the list of books for the schools.
After mature deliberation on the
plan of Frofessor Craighead and
another presented by Superintendent
oi Education Alayfleld, the board
adopted the latter. The plan as
adopted provides for the sale of
books as heretofore, by dealers, with
the exception that they are to enter
reement with the board to
sell them at a fixed per cent increase
upon the publisher’s price. The
rate of per ceutagc has not been
agreed upon aud will not be until
the next meeting of the board in
October, utter which it will be an
nounced.
The board considered the wishes
us well as the financial condition of
the people in the matter of selecting
the list oi books for the schools, for
they made very slight changes in
tbe list aa it has existed for the past
live years. I his was largely due to
the opinions oi the County School
Commissioners. They were gener
ally satisfied with the books now in
use ami advised against general
changes.
The only absolute change was in
grammar. Reid it Kellogg’s gram-
mum were disc aided in iavor oi
iarbell’s Docks arc cheaper than
those oi Reid & Kellogg, which will
make up i«;r any increased expense
in the purchase oi the new books.
After consenting to give out for
publication the list of books adopted,
Superintendent Alaytieid found it
impossible to get the list in correct
shape up to the hour of the Jour
nal's going to press.
The minutes, however, show the
following points on the series as
auopted for gederal use:
Webster’s dictionary was adopted
as the standard and Worcester's is
to lie permitted for use iu those
counties now using it if they so de
sire.
Robinson’s arithmetic is the stan
dard and Wentworths will b? per
mitted, us will Sanfonls. tfii; neter
in the counties only where thee arc
it is not ridicuious. Hundreds oi
farmers do save money and make in
vestments but the notion among
them is that there is nothing to 1 uy
except land. If that notion could be
rooted out it would be easier to build
coitou mills, or industries would be
diversified and tbe country’s wealth
would be multiplied.—Laurens Ad
