The Southern Railway has increas
the pay of many oi its employes, t
aggregate increase amounting to $50
000. This means more money of t
system finding its way back into t
people's pockets.

wrecks than ever before. A wreck
the Southern's Florida tlyer was 11;
rowly escaped at Rock llill the oil
day. The cause was the getting aw
of a sidetracked train at ni^lit. It r
on to the main line and was going
25 miles an hour toward Colunil
when caught. The Florida train w
nearly due. The loosing of the trr
was thought to have been by a 111
