either way almost tho entire distance
with ease. This has necessitated a large

deserves credit, the old grade being con
sidered good. "-

The Columbia Southern railway com

tration : A car of lumber arrived at the

To run EniToit:
The Idea appears to be prevalent that
tho V. M. C. A., so much talked of iu
this city, "lias already been launched."
This Is a mistake, is misleading, and I
ask space to correct It. Thu committees
appointed by tho different societies took
action upon this matter and will doubt
less organize a Y. M, C, A. as soon as
they can do so and niako thu society a
permanent ono; but this will tuko time
and money ami cannot he hurried.
Tho meeting called for yesterday iu
the interests of our young men, an I
which will lm continued, was for the
purpo3u of getting our boys interested
in Chrlstiuii work and preparing Ilium
for thn work that will naturally arise if
a Young Men's Christian Association Is
established iu tills city, And it may
not he out of place to s.iy that the meet
