AN IDEAL WINTER RESORT.
The Vicinity of Raleigh has one Better
Than Even Florida Furnishes.

The neatest advertising folder of The
season is that issued yesterday by IL,
Seaboard Airline, setting forth the at
fractions and advantages of Southern
Pines as winter health resort.
The fame of Southern Pines is abroad
IN the land. The ideal conditions fol
perfect health; sandy, porous soil, hisl
altitude, distance from the water, anc
everlasting pine forests have combines
to make this natural sanitarium thu
healthiest and most desirable winter re-
sort in America. Southern Pines is sit
uated ON the Seaboard Airline, C.
miles south of Raleigh, in the heart OF
the renowned long-leaf pine bet OF
North Carolina and at its highest eleva'
ton, 600 feet above sea-level. 1t pos
sesses all the advantages of resorts fur
Their South while being free from the
many well-known disadvantages often
encountered there. Its superior lJca-
ton in the midst of the noble pines,
whose health-giving and delicious odor
is constantly inhaled, and the remarka-
bic purity of the water there obtained
together with extremely mild climate.
renders this the most desirable resort for
persons suffering with lung, throat and
malarial troubles. Its accessibility to
those desiring to escape the rigor of the
Northern winters; atmosphere which
admits of outdoor exercise during the
entire winter season; with an eleganr
new hotel and half a dozen smaller exccF
lent hotels and santariums-these are
advantages which the tourist and health
seeker will appreciate.
Six miles west of Southern Pines (con-
nected with the latter place by q line Of
electric cars,) and with the same charac-
teristics of soil, pines and climate, is
located the new town of Pinehurst, q
beautiful little village, with an album
dance of ornamental and shade trees. A
deer park and charming little lake form
an attractive feature at the outskirts
of the town. Here also is "a fine hotel,
a Casino, and fifty cottages of various
sizes and styles.
"A II the houses are in every way sub
stantially built, and will be rented en-
tire, or in suites of rooms for light house
keeping, or in single rooms, and are
supplied with running water and are
comfortably furnished throughout with
everything necessary for housekeeping,
except table and bed linen.
Roseland, is new resort, under man.
agement of Mr.. j. III. Waite, of Bos-
ton. The ideal conditions for perfect
heaIl.. and fruit raising have made this
section the most desirable location in the
United States. Those who wish to
escape the rigor of Northern winters,
cannot find better location to enjoy a
mild climate, as well as perfect health.
1t has been recommended by many prom
inent New England physicians. The
fruit industry in this vicinity exceeds
per acre .any section of the United
States, California not excepted.

TIRED OF DOING NoTHING.\
AS Luxury the board of Agriculture
Is a Corker.

The people of Raleigh and the tax
payers of the State especially will re-
gret to hear that the Board of Agricul-
ture has at last got tired of dong moth
ing but drawing their per diem, and yes
terday Afternoon decided to adjourn and
go home.
Though they have been in session less
than Il week they have accomplished
the stupendous task of swapping off
their fgure-head commissioner. This
they doubtless consider glory enough for
one meeting; certainly they did nothing
else.
The meeting of the Board yesterday
was a repetition of what it has been
for the past several days. Mr.. }. G. l..
Harris was instructed to call the Board
together again whenever he thought it
necessary, and the selection of an en-
gineer was left in the hands of a spe-
cia committee composed of Messrs. j.
G. l.. Harris. j. NJ. Allen and II. e.
King. This done they all, with one ac-
cord, drew their pay and took a junket-
ing trip out to the Agricultural and Me-
chanical college.
Great is the Board of Agriculture,
which holds such frequent and long
meetings. AS an expensive luxury it is
hard to beat.

RATES TO BE RESTORED.
Seaboard and Southern Living up to
Terms of Their Agreement.

1t is announced that December Goth
the York River Line will restore the
old rate to Richmond in force before the
rate war between the Southern Rail
way and the Seaboard Airline began.
Instead of the present rate of So one
way and So for the round trip, the fare
will be $3.50 one way and $4 for the
round trip.
At the same time the Old Bay Line
will withdraw its service to Richmond,
established in competition with the
York River Line. The York River Line
steamers to Norfolk will also cease TO
compete for local and Portsmouth BUSH
ness against the Old Bay Line and will
handle only the through business Of the
Southern Railway from that city.
These changes are part of the peace
agreement between the Southern Rail
way and the Seaboard Airline. 1t is
said in financial circles that it is the
purpose of both sides to live up to the
full meaning of the agreement and that
both President Hoffman, of the Sea-
board, and President Spencer, of the
Southern, are acting in perfect good
faith and understanding.

certificates are printed from photo
