On account of a freight wreck
near St Stephens Sunday afternoon
local trains were much delayed Monday.
About thirteen cars of the
freight were derailed on the embank

were loaded with perishable freight
and this was scattered far and wide
when the smash came. Five cars of
oranges are said to have been wrecked
and contents thrown broadcast.
What a great time the boys in the
neighborhood must have had with
those oranges, we can imagine.

increase in the tobacco crop and

almost impassable.

GREAT CONGESTION LIKELY
Collector of Internal Revenue Ward
Calls Attention to Danger
Columbia, March 11.?D. C. Heyward,
collector of internal 'revenue
yesterday stated that all indications
pointed to a very great congestion
in all collectors' offices this week,
which congestion will increase to
wards the end of the week. This is
due in a large measure to the fact
that many persons seem to think they
should call personally at the office
of the collector not only to file their
returns but to ask for personal attention.
Collector Heyward stated that he
wished to request the taxpayers as
far as possible instead of bringing
their returns personally to the collector's
office to mail them in order
to save much of the congestion. Reg
ular returns or tentative returns
should be accompanied by checks or
other remittances for the first quarterly
payment. A tentative or regular
return deposited at any postoffice
on March 15th would fully protect
the taxpayer from penalties and
likewise insur# a proper consideration
of his return, when an attempt
to file same personally on or before
the 15th of this month might prevent
^iim from doing so on accoijnt of the
rush at the collector's office.

Georgetown
WK^^Kr from Andrews to the
^scJBKtl Courier, March 6th, says:
Quite a great deal of interest is
heing manifested in this section over
the proposed plan of annexing part
T f1. ^ . ? Z"1 ,-n .. . . /-v ll/illiwmg.
yi vuum.j' tw tt iiuauioburg.
The people in this section
want better roads and believe they
will serve better by the proposed
plan of annexation. Taxation will also
be cut 50 per cent by so doing.
The farmers of this section and
the citizens of Andrews are beginning
to discuss this question freely,
and it is thought that an election
v. ill be held in a short time to vote
jon this proposition.
In the meantime everybody is talking
"annexation."
Referrine- to the above news item
the Georgetown Times has this to
say:
"Yesterday's News and Courier
carried the following telegraphic
dispatch from Andrews and will be
read with much interest by the citizens
of this county. This matter
should be looked into immediately
by our Chamber of Commerce, and
if based upon facts is should be opposed
at once. We have no lands or
territory which we care to give to
Williamsburg."
o
Church Notice
Special revival services will begin
at the Methodist Church Sunday
morning March 16th, and continue
through the week.
There will be preaching twice daily,
at 11 a. m. and 7:30 p. m. A song
and prayer service will precede the
preaching.
The people of all creeds and no
creeds, merchants, clerks, professional
men, and the public at large are
cordially invited to attend these
services.
The preaching will be done by the
pastor, Rev. J. T. Fowler.
o
Window Displays
Just now there are some very neat
and pretty show windows in Kingstree,
displaying seasonable goods
and wares. One of the windows that
especially caught the reporters eye
was that of the Kingstree Hardware
Co., showing an oil range and a
handsome line of aluminum cooking
utensils. The show windows of the
People's Mercantile Co., and the
Kingstree Dry Gcods Co., are very
attractive, and those (Si Messrs. Jenkinson,
Silverman and Marcus also
attract attention. Our jewelers always
have pretty window displays,
for there is nothing that arrests the
notice of mortal man like gold, silver
and jewels, except a beautiful
woman. .
