of the great winter resort hotel near-by
to the city of Augusta, the most fre
quented of all the Southern winter
health resorts, lying 300 feet below
The dry, Sftn<l> soil of the hillsides,
the surrounding pine groves, and the
continually stirring hret-ses, combine to
render the air of this locality peculiar
ly fresh and fragrant, and of a humid*
Ity fat lc*M than that reported by the
United States Bureau for the valley be*

those who conic up from the adjacent
low lands find themselves refreshed and
Invigorated, while the mild and equable
temperature of the winter months pro
duces an ideal climate for sufferers from
the various chronic maladies, and for
convalescent a. week mg refuge from the
rigors of <t more northern climate.
The Sanitarium, planned for tho con

medical and stir glial cases, consists of
two wings connected by a glass Inclos

golf course, which is already a most
desirable one, and which will be, af
ter the middle of March, one of the
finest in America. Mr. J. R. lnglis,
late golf expert of the Fairview
Country club of New York, laid out
the course extension and is superin
tending its construction. He will be
here for the winter, primarily to
teach golf and to see the new course
! brought to a state of perfection.
The tennis courts naturally form
an Important part of the hotel’s equip
ment. but still more essential Is the
new spur track of the Augusta-Aiken
railway, that means not only that the
guests may be brought in greatest
ease and comfort directly from the
union depot in a special car at the
service of the hotel, hut that those
Who travel in private cars may have
these cars brought to the Terrace
and kept there on the side track ua
| til they are again wanted.
Regal is the only word that seems
! to fit Hampton Terrace, so generous
are Its proportions, so palatial Its
wide halls and large rooms, so mag
nificent the great rotunaa where
! hundreds may find room without any
suggestion of crowding. And what
ever may be said of the dignity and
j charm of the other apartments must
jbe accentuated when it comes to

THE VILLAGE OF NOR TH AUGUS TA
On the extreme southern border of the
goodly Palmetto state is North Augusta.
North Augusta on one side and Augusta,
Georgia on the other, the broad Savan
nah flbwing between them. But that
noble stream Is felicitously spoken of as
‘a bond not a bound’ between the two
states, and especially is this the case
with these two communities, for they are
together by the ties of blood, commerce
and bridges of steel. From the apex
of the lofty height in North Augusta,
tht great tourist hotel Hampton Ter
race looms and the cyclocrama of the
city and surrounding country, from its
towers and piazzas, is superb. The hand
the magnificent banquet given by tho
Chamber of Commerce of .Augusta to
Mr. Taft. Here are served the most
delectable meals within the imagin
ing of man. The drinking water
served is from a natural spring that
compares favorably with those of na
tional renown. The ice used is man
ufactured on the premises from the
water of this same spring which in
sures its purity.
The furnishings of the hotel arc
exceptionally artistic and comfortable
and are far more homelike in their
suggestions than are generally to be
found in a hotel. The bed-rooms a r e
very large, and have closets six feet
square. A long-distance telephone
connection in each room is a conveni
ence that is greatly appreciated.
The music room adds very mater
ially to the pleasure of the guests.
|The splendid orchestra in constant
attendance has achieved distinction
in the largest cities for its exquis
ite renditions. The use of many
growing flowers are well as freshly
cut ones throughout the hotel adds
not a little to the general attractive
ness. At five o’clock every after
noon tea is served in the large Jap
anese tea-room or sun-parlor, which
|is the most beautiful apartment of
j this kind in the entire South.
In addition to the excellent shoot
ing and fishing afforded by the woods
and streams near Augusta, the guests
jof Hampton Terrace hotel are offered
jthe especial courtesy of the "Hunts
| man's Paradise," the Combahee club
extending its privileges for a few
days to any guest making the re
quest.
Never before in its history has the
Terrace been so worthy of patronage
as it is at present under the man
agement of Mr. C. A. Wood, whose
experience as manager of some of the
largest hotels in the North and South
enables him to know exactly what
best suits the clientele to which he
caters. Everything that It Is human
ly possible to do to make of any ho
tel an Ideal resort Is being done for
Hampton Terrace, the fame of which j
Is being spread everywhere abroad. 1

| s ine residences and tasty dwellings are
clustering thickly around the "Terrace”
and the town exlenus as field and wood
land recede. The transformation lias
1-ecn like the waiving of a magicians
war.d for it was scarcely a deca Ic ago
that not a house stood In North Angus' r
where ail is now life and activity and
enterprise. This thrift nnd industry
which is so pleasingly apparent is the
direct result of brain energy and money,
a great combination, but one essential
to the accomplishment of great ends.
With the great enterprises now in ope
ration and about t° be set on foot, con
cerning which we will speak further on,
both the Georgia city and her Carolina
vis-a-vis must feel the thr/lling Im
pulse and leap forward with giant
strides.
The high ridge running from Colum
bia to Aiken and terminating abruptly
at North Augusta has long been fam
ous with the health and pleasure seek
ers of the globe. The atmosphere is
soft but exhilirating on these highlands
and entirely free from enervating In
fluences that prevail In lower latitudes.
Many tourists come year after year, en
gaging their apartments at the palatial
hotels or occupying their own cottages.
Many have become settlers and own
homes luxuriously and lavishly furnish
ed. The roads hereabout are as fine as
the country affords and automoblllng,
ridir.g and driving are enjoyed to the
fullest extent. The famous golf courses
at Aiken and Augusta also furnish
healthful amusements to lovers of the
sport.
Some of the leading spirits of the j
MONDAY, FEBRUARY 1.
North Augusta companies, noting tho
fine rolling character of the land lying
right at Augusta's doors, a decade ago,
discerned with a prophetic eye the splen"
did opportunity for development. Their
first step was to purchase a number of
tracts of land. Next, they built a bridge
at a cost of 350.000 which put their
property wltiiip a few minutes of the
business section of the city of Augusta,
Ga., and created a ready sale for their
town lots which were taken up wu.i
wonderful rapidity. Then they built the
Augusta, and Aiken Electric line twen
ty-five miles In length which passes
through the flourishing villages of North
Augusta, Belvedere, Clear Water, Bath,
Bangley, Granlteville, Warcnville and
Aiken, affording quick and cheap trans
portation for a population of 25,000 or
30,000. Their next move was the erec
tion of Hampton Terrace the finest hotel
in the South.
Along the -Augusta and Aiken Electric
line there are very many splendid £frm
sites admirably adopted to raising truck
of ail sorts. If you wish to engage in
it on a small scale any of the three big
hotels, Hampton Terrace, the Bon Air
or the Park in the Pines, will take
your entire product and pay the high
est market prices. The express service
of the trolley line renders transportation
cheap and easy. If you wish to ship
to the eastern markets, the Southern
railroad reaches all points and affords
quick transportation.
I Several years ago. Air. I.awrence A.
I Dorr, of Augusta, purchased a fine site
I on the Augusta and Aiken Electric line
j between Clearwater and Hampton Ter
j race and engageil in raising fine poultry.
He was so successful that soon the fowls
from the Belvidere Poultry farm took
the blue ribbons at the fairs held In this
and adjacent states. His business grew
with his reputation. Cast year he pur
chased 200 acres additional o n which ha
set out 20,000 peach trees to utilize the
droppings from his fowl houses. His ex
ample might be followed profitably.
Beautiful North Augusta as it is to
day owes much of its attractiveness to
the present mayor, Air. B. (_. Wall, who
has accomplished wonders in the way of
improving the streets and otherwise en
hancing the value of the property.
