Cascade Medicinal Springs.

The improvements made at this
growing and soon to be noted resort
are truly wonderful. At least one
hundred men are being employed there
now and one hundred thousand dollars
worth of improvements are under way.
These are the largest medicinal springs
in the world. The Cascade company,
which is backed by Chicago capitalists
in unlimited amounts, have now invi.
ted proposals for the construction of q
mammoth two-story stone bath honse
and sanitarium with basement. No
pains or expense will be spared to
make this the most convenient build
ing of its kind in use. It will virtu-
ally cover about 50x150 feet of ground
surface. Two car loads of cement
have been used in the foundation. 1t
will be supplied with baths Of all de-
scriptions. The best Of medical skill
and bath house attendants will be en-
ployed. In fact the institution will be
all that the most particular or fastidi-
GUS can desire. Next will come the
commodious hotel, which will contain
two hundred and fifty rooms. Plans
are now under way for the construc-
ton of the motor line, which will be
run by Cascade water power, between
Hot Springs and Cascade. Several
wealthy men will be interested and it
will no doubt pay big. MIR. Charles
Greely, a millionaire, has recently pur-
chased 100 acres adjoining the town,
which contains a natural lake bed,
covering about 60 acres. The dam
will soon be constructed. Take it all
in all, this place has wonderful fu-
ture, and tourists should not fail to see
it. A grand time is advertised for

of an engine and one car, occupied by
sixty-fve people, mostly excursionists.
The lower terminus of the line is 8,400
feet above the sea level, and the upper
Il, ,447. The distance is nine miles and
the steepest grade is 25 per cent, or q
rise of 1 in 40. There is double rack
rail in the centre of the track, and the
track is standard guage, steel rails and
15-foot roadbed. The road is operated
on the Abt system. The road is con-
structed in the most thorough manner
and every precaution for the safety Of
the passengers is used. On the way up
slight snow squall was encountered
and on the summit the air was unpleas-

No incident occurred to mar the sue

The Court House Matter.

The court house matter now goes to
the supreme court. Judge Nowlin has
refused to grant any OF the relief asked
by the people in this matter, not SO
much as granting the people the privi-
-lege Of putting up supersedeas bond,
and issuing restraining order until
the matter can be heard and passed
upon by the supreme court. To the
DAILY STAR, this latter proceeding
seems arbitrary and not in keeping
with the principle upon which our
courts are established. 1t is evident
from the interest the people are taking
in this matter that they feel that an
injustice and wrong Is about to be
done them. The matter has been taken
to Judge Nowlin and he has not seen
fit to grant the petition of the people
in this matter. The people have ap-
pealed from his ruling and now IN all
justice to all parties so long as this
matter is going to the supreme court
it would seem just that a restraining
order should be issued until the cause
shall be adjudicated in the court of
last resort. No harm can come from
going slow and great wrong may be
prevented by little absence Of haste.
Courts usually interfere, particularly
where public money is to lie expended,
until the matter has the fullest inyes-
tigation by the courts. In this instance,
Judge Nowlin refuses to interfere and
the matter will go to the supeeme
court where it will be decided upon its
merits. The DAILY STAR does not lay
claims to legal ability, but it has the
opinion Of men high up in legal circles
10 the effect that tho people and not
the county commissioners are right in
in this matter and upon those opinions
We base our prediction that Judge
Nowlin will be overruled.

1--WE understand that the judge has

they could have have been located. The greatest
difference in number between any ward is but six.
The second and most important deduction is the
imperative need of suitable and sufficient school
room facilities. At tho present time we cannot
deny the humiliating acknowledgement, that our
room cannot comfortably accommodate one
fourth of the number of school children in the
district. Shall We, as city. fail in this most

cured again this yoar In tho college. In fact th-
college faculty hope and expect to uss the whole
building the coming year. Then what shall we
do? What arc We to do next year, If we don't be-
gin to make provisions for schools at once? The
present school population will require not less
than six teachers. which means six rooms. With
all our business hurry and stir we cannot AFFORD
to neglect school matters. Prospective citizens
look to schools, and, II we cannot show to them
that We have good schools they will hesitate
about coming. With all our advantages we etill

THE PUBLIE BUILDING.

The balloting over the postoil;cc site
has come to an end. The size Of the
total vote polled is clear test of tho
popularity of the contest. 1t is one OF
the largest votes ever pollcd in Roanoke,
and really decides an important ques-
ton.
Roanoke is too large and the lines Of
its future development too clearly de-
termined to be materially affected by
the location of the public bDilding But
it is equally true that all property in
the immediate vicinity of the postoilicc
will become with It's erection available
for business sites, and naturally increase
rapidly in value.
The owners OF the various sites have
shown remarkable liberality, and, in
comparison with the usual conduct of
owners Of available sites in other cities.
have reflected great credit upon Roam
cke. by their action the Government
will obtain its site at such small cost
that the balance of the So, 900 available
will be sufficient to erect fine struc-
ture, which will be an ornament to the

A Passenger Train Dnshes Into a Freight,
killing Three People.
COLUMBIA, S. c, Aug. Especial l.
A terrible accident occurred at Ridge
vile, on the South Carolina railroad,
about 1l:3O last night
Ridgeville is about thirty miles north
of Charleston, and freight SIS, northward
bound, was ordered to take the side
track at that point to await the coming
of the southbound passenger train No
SO from Columbia TO Charleston The
freight train was pulling into the siding
and had five cars in on the siding when
the passenger train came laundering
around the curve, running fifty-fiv
miles an hour.
Instantly the heavy engine dashed
into the freight tain cutting the boxes
and smashing the ems inc and cars into
fragments.
Engineer Brissenden was instantly
killed with his hand on the throttle.
Young Wesley Brown, who was a pas
sengcr on the train, jumped for his life
but had his neck broken by the fall
Fireman johnson escaped with his life
but was terribly burned. None OF the
passengers were injured.
The accident was due to the careless
ness OF the flagman who failed 10 go the
prescribed distance from the blocked
freight train. His lights were not seen
by those on the passenger engine till too
late to avert the catastrophe.
