The paddles of the canoe have been found and the hats of the young men, but no other traces of the bodies remain. It has been said since they were caught in an outgoing tide, that there is a strong likelihood of the bodies having been carried to sea. o Federal Road Money Columbia, April 28.?There is available for aid in erecting bridges in South Carolina about $750,000.00 * -i J_ nm_ in reaerai iunas. mis r euerai money for building bridges can be secured by the counties of the State in exactly the same way as the Federal money for building roads. The erection of the necessary bridges is an important matter in South Carolina on account of the fact that the State is crossed bymany large rivers, which with their swamps are formidable barriers to intercourse by road between various sections of the State. The bridge itself will afford a splendid outlet to Augusta for the Beach Island section of Aiken county and the territory traversed by the Charleston and Western Carolina Railroad in Aiken and Barnwell counties. It is now necessary in or der to get to Augusta by road from the Beach Island section of Aiken county to go by way of Bath. The new bridge across the Savannah river at Sand Bar Ferry will shorten the distance by many miles. The question of building necessary bridges is one which affects South Carolina very vitally, as the State is cut up by several large rivers, some of which are bordered m the low country by swamps of formidable width. ^ This is especially true of the Santee river, which is one of the largest streams in the Southeastern section of the United States. This river is not spanned by a highway bridge anywhere, although it is crossed by four railroad bridges. After making exhaustive examinations and surveys, the State Highway Commission found that from the stand point of cost the best point on the Santee river at which - - * j? to build a highway Dnage Lanncau's Ferry on the border between Georgetown and Williamsburg counties Berkeley county. Pinck nev's Landing, a point on the Santee River between Clarendon and Orangeburg counties, closely seconds Lanneau's Ferry in the matter of being the best available bridge site from the standpoint of cost. The Santee River in its present unbridged condition composes, with its wide swamp, a barrier tc intercourse by road between the prosperous Pee Dee section of the s State and Charleston and the South western half of the State generally, o Actions speak louder than words when deaf mutes talk. t y Touring Car^~ $925 r r 1 The Dort is a good will thri * performance. r It is a very ea; ] not bump you [ roads as many t It hangs closel) when traveling > p And its averag of gas, quart o 5 is distinctly hig i r i r i Prices 1 Wire Wheels t t i ' Mr. D.
