The decision in the case of

was IN regard TO Boobies claim for
$1,000, hi h was in Upchurch's
hands tor him as ward. Upchurch
accepted service. There was case
made and judge Whitaker made a
ruling. The Supreme court gives
a new trial; but Boothe's claim
comes in, it appears, at the foot of
the list, though really it was the
first one filed. The attorney claims
that he is safe, and that
the bonds are cumulative.

About the New Depot.

Mr.. W. W. Gwathmey, the chief
engineer OF the Seabeard Airline,
Is here on matters connected with
the new depot. Like everybody
else, he is much disappointed at the
alterations in the top of the tower
which VI, we're made necessary by the
objections of a property-owner near
oy' But for Mr.. Gwathmey there
would have been no tower Ha
urged the officials to let him build
II. They consented; he gave out
the contracts; the work went on
and when it was nearly done here
came the objection to the hood over
nifty feet from the ground. The re-
suit is the tower is a bob-tail; half
Its beauty spoiled. 1t all goes to show
that nobody ought to stand in
the way OF an unquestioned public
Improvement. Such is the denot
beyond all doubt. 1t adds to the
comfort OF all travellers, gives the
CITY a handsome building, &c. 1t
is worth money to Raleigh. Yet
all along difficulty after difficulty
has arisen. Mr.. GwAltney deserves
public thanks for his efforts in Sc.
curing the tower. He said last
evening to a reporter that he was
here to see that in sixty DAYS the
depot was ready for use. He has
directed that it be completed by
that time. This is good news. There
ought to be some public ceremony
on the occasion of the open;no of
the depot. Raleigh owes the rail
ways that courtesy. Here is an
opportunity for the board Of alder. |
men to show their hands.
