* IUI? HI- INC. < I I \KI 1> Ol ( AUS. < ? i < .m.iii.,?., of \. t . i . Kall, nwil Yard In Thl? Clt> Iking 11* Ii? \, ?I The congested condition of the A. C. I* railroad yard In this city Is be? ing relieved as fast as the engines at Work can make up n< w trains and oend them out. Tuesd ?y more than 100 ears wer? shipped out from here and all efforts Wore being made to keep other trains out until the eeev tested condition could be somewhat relieved. The congestion was caused by the fact that fertiliser shipments were begun about two weeks earlier this year than formerly and all of the fertiliser was rushed out from Char? leston very rapidly. All of the sid? ings were tilled up with the fertiliser cars and as the farmers were having such fine weather In which to begin their years work on the farm they would not take their stock out of the' fields where they were busy plowing to haul the fertiliser, the cars, as a result, being left on the sidings wait? ing to be emptied. From Sumter to Darlington there was no room left on the 'ridings for more cars, and from Lanes to Sumter all of the sidings were full of the fertiliser cars, the ears eom'ng In being packed. In the freight yard here three en? gines have been busy all day handling the shipments coming In. and at night two more engines were em? ployed helping to do the work that was not done during the day. For? merly during the fertiliser season three engines have been sufficient to do the yard work here, two working In the day and one at night, but this year Ave engines have been at work and It was more than they could do to ward off the congestion that nec? essarily followed the shipment of so much fertiliser at one time. In Char? leston for the past week thero has been a strike on among the hands at the fertiliser works, and this has prevented more fertiliser trains from coming out, and helped to get things In the railroad yards at other points straightened out. The railroad yard employees here have had a strenuous time during the I nut three weeks aid are glad to ??ee the shipments slack? en off. MUST MARK TUCK BTATF.MI NTS. Importsnt Opinion <;i\en by Attorney (?rncrul I.jon. Columt !v March 3.? A bank hn* Ho legal right to subscribe to the stock Jfjft s/wn corporation, and iLc of of a bank who makes a false statement of the State bank exami? nier may be prosecuted for perjury. These are statements made by At? torney General Lyon to the Stat - bank examiner, Li. J. Khame. Mr. Khame does not mention the aasjt of any institution in his letter asking for information, which is as Mlows: "1 am unable to find anything in the State banking laws prohibiting a bank from subscribing to its own capital stock. At pres i.t 1 have a bank of $15,000 capital In which the bank is subscriber for $4,200 of Its own stock. I wish to know if 1 can eesnpel them to dispose of this stack eithe* by salo or redaction of th'ir capital. "I have several banks that from time to time render this office false and incomplete statements. I ha\c taken up this matt.-r with the several banks \nd have endeavored to get th*m to correct their faulty stat? - ments. Kindly advise me if I have any redress under the laws of th* State." In T+*) - this Mr. LjfSSJ has written "It Is my opinion that a banking corporation Itseli can not be a sub? scriber to ItM own stock. See Cook on Corpora?I-T. ? ."? Kdltli n. volume 1, aasasaa ft.

There Was a large attendance out to witness th" fame and the rooting on both sides was something ti < men dous. and it was perhaps this rooting which caused the Broad street bunch to lose the game for they were not as strong on this point as their op ponents. Both teams played good ball, the batteries being especially strong. Batteries: Little Sluggers; Brad ham and Burns; Broad Street, Shaw, G., and Nunnamaker, L. Umpire, Norward Du Rant; Score 7 and 4.

March 8.?At 1.46 o'clock tonight th?- House of Rep? resentatives paaaod th* Smith bill, which regulates the sale of liquor In Alal ama, by a vote of 5s to 27. The bill had i.i. considered In committee of the whole practically all day, the Prohibitionists leading the light against the bill.

The Smith bill fixes the license in Mobile and Montgomery at $1,500, and In Mobile one saloon to every 750 people and In Montgomery one to every 1,000. Excise boards are created to control sale of liquor and the Wiley pure food regulations are adopted to govern the quality of liq? uors to be sold. This measure is said to be the most stringent ever enact? ed in any State in the Union. STATE SUMMER SCHOOL. Much Interest Taken in Announce? ment From Winthrop. Columbia, March 4.?The announce? ment from Winthrop college that a State summer school for teachers will bo held during the coming summer will bo received with interest by the several thousand teachers in South Carolina. This will be the first State ?'immer school for teachers to be held since 190o. Last fa!l the sum of $1,500 was given by the Peabody board for a summer school for teachers in this State to be held at Winthrop college. It was thought that the general as? sembly would appropriate $5,000 ad? ditional. The general assembly did not give the necessary money. How? ever provision wdll be made for the summer school and It is expected that several hundred teachers of the State will attend.

Sure thing. The burning question then is how to get the money. You will not tind it rolling up hill nor be able to pluck it off the bushes. You had just as well face It squarely. There is but one way if you are trying to make a start. It is to save. Start a bank account. As soon as you can, lay another dol? lar beside the one in the bank. Your signature will bring them when the opportunity comes to invest. The failures may see op? portunity but it is lost to them. It will be open to you if you have the cash at the bank.
