ROAD BUILDING.
Supervisor Feagle Will Co-operate In
Effort to Have Government Ex

stration of road building as it should
be done.
The overnent has agreed to send
aii expert to Newberry to superin
tenld the building- of one mile of good
road on condition that the labor and
macinery will be furnished, the work
to be done under the supervision of
I gven-lint nzad expeit. D.
WyVv c -aime to New>erry some days
Z11 and had a coiferenice with t1ie
memlibers of the chamber of commerce
aiid mezubers of tile ._ood roads lea
gue of Newberry county. They agreed
to take the matiter up with the county
supervisor and Dr. WVche turned the
co,1respondence over to them.
Mr. Z. F. Wright. president of i
chamber of commerce, had a confer
ence yesterday with County Super
visor Feagle, and .turned over to him
the papers left by Dr. Wyche.
County Supervisor Feagle is very
anxious to "have the . experimental
road built, and will at once answer
the questions propounded by te gov
ernment, and will cooperate in the
matter. It is probable that the pub
lic road from Newberry to Prosperitty
just beyond the incorporate limits
down towards Johnstone academy
will be the section of road selected
for this purpose. This will enable the
people to see what can be done with
clay and sand road, the sand -on this
section of road being very heavy. No
doubt tbe people who live along this
road will also cooperate by furnishing
teams and assisting in getting the
material.
Supervisor Feagle has been doing
some of this class of work near Mr.
Gibson's place. There is a portion
of this road Which is very bad in wi
ter on aecount of the clay. Mr. Fea
gle has been mixing sand with this
clay, and as a result this section of
the road is as good as any part of the
road from Newberry to Gibson's.
A great deal of the road in Newber
ry .county could be built by th-e use of
sand where the road is clay and by
the use of clay where the sand beds
are heavy, and .in mos't cases the ma
terial is -right at hand. A sand and
lay r-oad is really a better road than
the :naeadam, and the bui-lding of it
is mueh cheaper.
Dr. Wolling Made an Honorary Mem
ber.
The Juvenile Missionary society of
Central c!hurchl is an active band of
little workers. .The activre and very
efficient lady manager is Mrs. P. C.
Gailard, and'aunder n er direction
they reised last year some: fifty dol
lars for the cause. Now they have
raised an extia- twenty .dollars with
which to make Dr. Wolling a life
member of :the society. Sunday after
noon at the regular meeting a beauti
ful certificate conferriiig this honor
on the pastor was presented i-n the
name of the society by little Miss
Margaret 'Davis, who <read the fol
lowing address of presentation:
"We are glad to be able to make

JUDGE HYDRICK'S TERM
An Important Question Raised in a
Special Message to the General
Assembly.
In an important message to the
general assem:bly by G'ov. Ansel at
tention wa's called to the fact that it
would be necessary to elect a circuit
judge -to succeed Hon. D. E. Hydrick,
who has resigned and who has sen?t in
his resigna'tion as cireuit jr dge, to be
come associaite just,iec of the supreme
court.
The term of Judge Hydriek expires
in DIecember, 1909, and he takes office
in April. 1909. Therefore it will be
necesary to elect some -one for thie
unexpired term of abourt 'eight
months. The matter was referred to
the judiciary cominittee and a report
will sprobably be made tomorrow.
The following is the message of
Gov. Ansel:'
"Gentlemen: I have the honor to
inform your honorable . bodies that
Judge D. E. Hydnick, judge of. the
Seventli judicial circ?ui't of th'is State,
has tendered to me his resignation as
judge of said Seventib judicial aircuit,
to ta'ke- effect April 15, 1909, and I
have aeeepted said resignation to stake
effect on said date.
"I find that the .term of o)ffice of
Judge Hyd'riek, as judge of the Sev
enth judicial circuit, expires on the
15th~ of December. 1909, -and that his
sucessor for ithe full term to begin on
the 15th of December. 1909. will
have to be selected by the general as
sembgly at the present session. The
unexpired termn of Judge Hydrick,
femrnening on the 15th of April,
1909. and expiring on the 15th of De.
eember. 190.9. will also have to be
filled, either by an election by your
'honorable bo)dies. r' 'by appoin:t.ment
1y the governor. as the une.xpired
tnrmf is for less than one year. Tihe
(cnstitution of this State, 1895, ariti
ele 5. sec't-in 11. provides as follows:
All vacancies 'in thre 'supreme court
tor inUfer r tr'ibunlalS shall be filled by
eletiOnis as 'here prescribed : Pr-ovid
e. That if the unexpired term does
nt 'exceed one year suich vacarncy
may b.e filled b)y executive appoint
met: all judg'es' by virtue of their
afiee shall b)e conservators 'of the
peace throughotut the State, and when
a vacaner .is filled by ei'theri appoint
ment or election the incumbent .Ahall
hol only for the unexpired term of
his predecessor.'
"My .construction of this section of
the constitut-ion is that ithe general
'assembly, being now in session, has
the 'power t'o fill this unexpired term.
which i.<'for less tihan one year. by
election.
"T''. however. brinig this matter to

ROBBERS SECURE $35,000.
Indications Are That Desperadoes
Had Prepared Everything With
Gunning and Foresight.
Denver, Feb. 13.-A holdup of the
Denver & Rio G'rande passenger train
No. 4, near Denver, early 'this morn
ing w.as :he work of three instead of
two robbers1 as a.t first was believed,
and the robbery of the maik car gave
them a loot of 'possibly .$35,000. This
.is indieated by the investigation of
the police and irailroad officials to
day. So. far 'no tangible clew to the
identity or whereabouts of the rob
bers has been founid, but it seems
probable that :t,he men came to Den
e' .and are now :hiding in this city.
Eighteen packages of 'registered
mail were secured.
The robbery was remarkable for
its originality -and dariing. It took
place within eight miles of Denver,
wi;tin less tha-n two miles of Fort
Logan, t:he United Sta.tes milita.ry re
