tion OF tue old division OF the road has
i'-en thoroughly and permanently repaired
with steel.rnil track and other betterments.
The traffic Of those districts opened up by

indications Of continued increase, and the
whole territory thus newly developed pre-
sents an inviting field 10 capitalists and
new settlers seeking investment or emplov-

AUDITORS REPORT.
The auditors report was also received
and filed. II Is lengthy and concise, EN-
bracing the general account, earnings and
expenses, and freight and passenger statis-
ties Tor the following divisions: Richmond
and Danville Railroad Division, North
Carolina Railroad Division, Atlanta and
Charlotte Airline Railroad Division,
Northwestern North Carolina Railroad
Division. Richmond, York River and
Chesapeake Railroad Division.
GENERAL MANAGERS REPORT.
General. Manager A. L. Rives In his re-
port says:
1.-TWO frst-class ten-whcel locomotives
have been built during the year. and re-
place three inferior In size and worn out.
The motive-power has been well maintained,
and has shown itself equal to the demands
upon it, except that for the passenger SER
vice between Danville and Charlotte, the
engines In use having proved themselves
too light, IL Is strongly recommended that
four heavier engines be purchased. Special
attention bas been paid to the adoption OF
economical devices calculated to diminish
the consumption OF fuel for equal service
performed, and will be continued In view
OF the encouraging results which have
been obtained on twenty-five engines.
Eight miles south Of Danyile there Is
mile OF heavy temporary grade. on which
assistant power is used for freight trans at
an annual outlay nearly sufficient TO reduce
the grade to the maximum standard. This
work should undoubtedly be undertaken
IN the spring and pushed steadily to COM
pletion.
In view OF the fact that several OF the
largest railroad systems in the southern
States are contemplating change OF gauge
from FIVE feet to four feet nine inches, pre-
paraiions have been made aud arc making
which will enable us to take similar action
with the maximum economy at the proper
time. am satisfied that such change,
when accomplished, will result in an in
crease OF business and reduction OF ex-
penses.
The thanks Of the company are due to the
employees generally for the faithful manner
in which they have discharged their duty
There beng no further business, the
meeting adjourned.

New Elements I'm a baking. Powder.

Professor Won Leibig once said in speak
ing OF baking-p powders that a material for
baking should be made which would add
TO the bread the elements lost to the -four.
Martin Kalbnesch's Sons have succeeded
in producing a baking powder which, in
the opinion Of Professor silliman, OF Yale,
possesses the properties recommended by
Won Leibig. Ii restores TO the bread the
pOtassia and magnesia salts wlich the
milling removes from bigh-grade flour. II
is also entirely free from those injurious
salts which are often found in ordinary
baking.powder. This new invention is
called Wheat Buking-Powder, and makes
