All the rock contracted for by the city has been supplied by Contractor Halllhan. This la the rock that has been supplied from the nuariies up the canal. When the contract was proposed It caused a difference of opinion among M!Ouncilmcn v but the contract side of the house carried the day.

While at Niagara Falls he aaw s lit tle negro urchin on the streets. He thought that he knew the boy. nod. In fact, a moment or so after the boy was seen, the lad hatted Mr. Paschal and asked him if he didn't snow him “Yes, I know you. 1 thought 1 recog nised you. What are you doing here?" "Well, boss," the urchin replied,'"l goln' to tell you all ‘bout It. M* and some more boys was sbootln' dice and Policeman llatcher get after us. He got after me In special and I thought I better get away. And I know If I was to go back there that policeman would get me sure, and that Is how I come here.” The negro lad, seemed as happy as happy could he. Safety Elevators. Elevators have now been rendered safe in ease of fall by means of air cushions. An elevator In the Empire building. New York, was allowed re cently to fall 20 stories. The fall of 300 feet did not break eggs lying on a marble slab in the middle of the car nor spill water from a glass. Take a l.augh. (Denver Times.) When you seem to want to worry— Take u laugh.

The people of Sumter seem to regret that the Ohio Rtver and Charleston road Inis passed under the control of the South Carolina and Georgia road. The Item contains the following on the subject. “The consolidation of the Three Ca railroad with the South Carolina and Georgia system removes alt hope of the extension of the former road from Camden to tills city. The Sumter nnd Camden road will never he built, un less by an independent company, and that, we fear, is not to h? hoped for. as an Independent line would not be self-sustaining, owing to the fact that the expense of operating it would be out of all proportion to the earniugs. since it would be almost wholly de pendent upon local' business. The dream that Sumter would some day he on the main line of a great western nnd deep-water railway system has vanished, and it Is now more impor tant than ever before that those <vho are interested in the future of Sumter should liostir themselves to promote the construction of the Sumter ami Wnteree rrilrond. This road offers the only feasible outlet for Sumter, and Ihe only one of which there is the slightest probability of being built.”—News and Courier. j ******* *** p***9 ******* Tit#** will h* ** A'ff PIT -JIM HICKEY*’ BACK.

He says: "I never saw such a roan as our senior major general. He is a* active physically as he is mentally. To uae a common but very expressive phrase. There I# not a laxy bone In hts body.' Moreover, no Isxy man can remain with him long. He puts on no style and thinks noth ing of hta persona! appearance when he Is In the field. Hts entire soul is ab sorbed tn hts work. When there was difficulty In unloading transporta and wheu the officer* seemed to be tn the least incapable of performing their duty, he went to work himself like a hired man. and hie staff officers went to work. too. There was no standing around and looking on at anything. "Gen. Miles worked like a beaver at everything. He was Intent’)’ alert, per sonally looking a'ter- every branch of the army. He was on all parts of the line, constantly on the go. He person ally saw that the quartermaster s work was properly performed. He person ally saw that the commissary's depart ment was up to date with food for the men. He personally saw that medical supplies were on hand, and that the medical officers were tn their places, ready for every duty. I did not know him In Washington, and it may be true thnt he ts dressy and sly'.lsh in hts appearance, but I saw film daily in the field, and his personal appearance was certainly never considered by himself. His whole mind was on his army. Its comfort and success. He kept every body on the move. Moreover, his or ders were obeyed with alacrity. "Every mun that served under Gen. Miles admired him, and all were will ing to go wherever he might lend or direct. Soldiers who have served un der him for years say that bis soldiers have alwriys been eager to obey him. and in every way manifest their confi dence in him and V-’gSid for him. 1 have never been a hen? worshipper, but 1 am a very warm admirer of General Miles.” THE THIRD WARD IS ALL RHIMT. the l*rtiwlplc of Pri maries Established by Men There.

COLOR LINE ON THE CARS. The Tift ot Today on Part of Colored People Jo he Forgotten Soon. There tan't any queation that the tlft of the colored people over the required enforcement of state taw regulating j accommodations for the race* on the street cars will be entirely forgotten j a month after the colored regiment j leaves Augusta's vicinity. It has beco the exceptional ease where the white people of Augusta and the colored people here did not get clong alt right here. Now and then a negro cornea along from the east and causes trouble a* was the case with the big negroes who gave trouble on , the cars last winter, and as Is the case with the negro scldlera. Ths negro ecldlers who belong to Augusta did not give Huy of th? trouble. It Is generally believed that after the negro troops are gone. It will be found that the old status will be resumed. A colored leader admitted to a re porter yestej'ilay that the colored ministers and editors bad made a mistake. To boycott the railroad be cause of the enforcement of a state taw was unjust to the railroad. Be sides, eo far as home colored people wece concerned, they did not use tha ears for luxury. Bombardment Statistics Prove that a bombardment is not such a terrible thing after all. In 1870-71 the bombardment of Belfort lasted 78 days, during which 90.453 projectiles fell within the city, and there were but GU victims killed or fatally wounded. At Strasburg. during the siege of 38 days, ttie Germans fired upon the city, mostly al close range, 198,722 shells, with a record of only 300 victims. Fin ally, at Paris, where the bombardment lasted only 23 days. 10.000 siege shells were thrown, killing and wounding 107 persons. ■tut PMP* -• | f Im# ****** ♦■<*» ***** * ******, * mm m ******* mm ******** m mm #mp* f mmmm> ** mm twM mmm mm mmmm mm m*% ****** " * s*#**»# A '?<:« f -•' .v# * ##'# Mil m ; ’ ■*** ** **■* '*m*m*m iqiii % - ##>4 * * %hm4 IM# m-m*** m*m*** m** m* mm* «%# mmrnrn* Wm wmm ] #m» *m&§ mm* mi mm mm* mm j *m ******** * mm * mm ***** j mmm mm mm* ai§ mv mm*m * ' W*it ' ##9 flHf iImM C 4 ##Hi **+* ft## *** ■ % «t# # m mmmm mm* mmrnrnty m** m mm* # #*##» mi ' ****** %WKm * Tsit MU#' Mb# ****** ms **f ******* Pm* P**m ** ***** P*r* *mmp9*m *t mm t** **#•«. aa mm*.. • Mum §*m *s, Pmm* mt om> •m* *m* m* Inm fc» t>4 m 1 %***% * mm%* mm* **s 1 iiilMmmii mmt m M*t m mm* Mb# *mmts**m.. *** - mda Mb f %# *mm in* mm Wmt *>9 <**s mlhm ti ft!** * ***** ** ***** »M» ****** ■■** m ftm * *%m* M miM mm iMiMwit.
