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.

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.
Vhenever a bunk ofheer renders a
report to y ?ur olll< . under oath
such oath s required by law, it Is
opinion tbut ho Is guilty of per
and m.%> be prosecuted under
rlstons of section 256 of the crlm
code. nhlch Is as follows 'Who
? shall willf.lly and knowingly
sr falsely In taking any oath re
?e?l I'!" b?w and administered by
person directed or permitted by
law to administer such oaths, shall In
deemed g illt-. if perjury and on con?
viction incur tr*e pain-, and penultlcs
of that offense."
Cook on Corporations, to which
volume Mr Khanat Is cited by ItM at?
torney general. decU res
"A stihscrh.tlnn f?r stork la a con?
tract and In .. per?i any one wha may
contract may subscribe. The cor?
poration Itself, however, can not be a
subscriber to its own stock. When
such a subscription Is made In the
name of a trustee for the corporation,
the trustee Is personally liable there?
on to corporate creditors."
Champ Ciuk deserves more than
an ordinary amount of tftdtt for his
success In stirring John Hull up the
same as If somebody had lighted a
firecracker under him.

Hitlers 7 to I in a Fast Game.
Thursday afternoon the baseball
park was the IWII Of a fast game Of
hassball Nsii'ii t h ?? LI Uli Bluffe ra by
their superior hitliuK took a.vay the
Kuno* from the Broad Street Blcyol<
l.aPis to the tune of 7 to 4.
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,

REGULATES SALE OF Ligt ok.
\ la ha ma House Passes smith iuii?
Prohibitionists < Oppose.
Montgomery, Ala.. 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. Walker Percy, of
Birmingham, offered an amendment
fixing the saloon license In Jefferson
County at $3,000, and the number of
saloons one for every 3,000 inhabi?
tants, it was adopted.
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.
Even if it is only a joke, it makes
old Mother England terrlbily nervo-ns.

The Bank of Sumter
A Lost Opportunity.
You often hear the expression, "It take money to make
money." It is true. The failures stand around and wail that if
they only had money at a certain time, they could have made
money, lots of It. 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. Start now. lie ready. The secret of
all business success is the ready dollar.
