tleman in close touch with the legal
affairs of the Southern to the Salisbury
World Saturday, ''has had suits to the
amount Of 100000 brought against IT

for this condition Of things is President

curtailed the expenses to the extent OF
cutting off some of the necessary EN-

JUDGE HUGHES'S OPINION.

Judge Hughes. of the United District
Court, dismissed the injunction which the
Southern. or pierpont Morgan system.
had procured to be issued against
the Seaboard Air Line system
reducing their own rates. The
Southern had this done because 9th
erwise they would have been forced 10
reduce their own charges, and the high
salaries and big profits they are now max
ing The opinion dismissed the injunc-
ton on the ground of a want of Jurisdlc-
ton, which was probably evident TO every
lawyer when the action was begun. At
the tail end of tire injunction, the judge
throws in an ntimation that
pos sibly IN injunction against 4
ruinous rate war might be sus-
tanned. He docs not so adjudicate.
and If the occasion should arise he would
doubtless revise this suggestion. Under
the late decision of the United States Su-
preme Court, it is certain that a compel
ing railroad. could not, directly or indi-
rectly, enjoin its rival against lower
rates. The bondholders can have no
claim to such relief as long as their inter
est is paid, and neither can stakeholder,
as long as the law permits railroad rates
to be regulated by the majority instead of
the minority of its stock. An injunction
might lie i'll favor of the pablic to forbid
excessive rates, but not in favor of a mi
nority stakeholder against the establish
ment of such rates as they deem best

A GENEROUS GIFT no GUILFORD
COLLEGE.

Dno of the most note worthy and en-
couraeing characteristics of our day Is
the liberality OF men of wealth in the
bestowed of money TO promote the cause
of education.
While North Carolina in respect to
nnblic or free school facilities, occupies
place distressingly low as compared
with the free school systems i'll nearly
all the other States, the efforts made
by our religious denominations are in a
high degree commendable.
The generous contributions to the cause
of education which have been made by
Mr.. Washington Duke and Sons, of
Durham. have endeared them for all
sine to come to the friends of educa-
lion in our beloved State.
We rejoice to report another proof of
tSii- liberality and devotion to the educa-
ton of our people in the recent donation
by the brothers b. n. and j. b. Duke
of ten thousand dollars to erect Science
Han and Auditorium at Guilford Col
lege
These gentlemen with their sister, the
late Mrs. Mary u. Lyon received their
education principally at the New Garden
School, being students in 1871 and 1872.
They have always entertained q high
regard for the institution and have re-
ioiced to see its growth and progress, and
the change which was made in 1888 from
New Garden Boarding School to Gull
ford College. To their good will for the
prosperity and better equipment of the
college, this splendid gift Of Science Hall
is lasting testimony. The college has
for a number of years felt the need of
more adequate Scientific equipment; and
the gift is therefore felt to be most time
", and will render the college work more
efficient in every way, besides providing
an ample auditorium for commencement
and other public exercises.
The Alumni and friends of the college
feel and desire TO express most cordial
gratitude for the great benefaction; and
will be aroused to greater zeal in their
efforts to strengthen the educational
force of the institution in every respect.
On Saturday night a public meeting
will be held in King Hall in which stu
dents. Alumni, and Faculty and others
win tol-a mart in celebrating the good
fortune of the college.

For nearly twenty-One years Mrs AL

bore with christian patience and fOrti-
tudc. She was model wife, a kind

OF her convictions. She held herself and
all others to life of strict integrity and
departures from this rule met with stern
disapproval at her hands. She was kind
and generous to the poor and needy and
delighted to give them assistance as far
as her ability allowed.
The funeral will be held this afternoon
