A BRIGHT YOUNG TARHEEL.
T. w. Davis, Jr., of L0uisburg, Wins
The Honors at The South Carolina
Medical College.

Among the graduates of the South
at the recent commencement, was ayoung
North Carolnian, and it pleases the Post
to note that he achieved distinction in
his class. Mr.. T. w. Davis, Jr., OF Louis
burg, son of T. w. Davis, ESQ, and
nephew of Capt. W. X. Davis, so we'll
known in Raleigh, was the successful
young gentleman referred to. He won
the College cup as the "frst honor gradu-
ate in medicine" The Neps and Courier
says: THE College cup was then pre-
scented to DR.. Davis by DR.. J. Somers
BUST. In awarding the well-earned prize,
DR.. BUST took occasion to extend his
hearty congratulations to the young
North Carolinian who had crossed the
border into the Palmetto State and had
won the trophy. But South Carolina
would gracefully yield the prize to her
sister State, for it had been fairly and
bravely won. He urged the young physi
clan to keep it always in view as an in
centive to further victories"
The Post sincerely congratulates the
young gentleman, and wishes that his
achievements hereafter may be as brilliant
as that which distinguished him in his
college work.-Raieigh Post.
DR.. Davis is brother of Miss Nina
Davis. of Henderson, and is person
ally known to many of our readers.
1t is all the more creditable to him
that he should have won such dis
tinguished honors in class of SO
many bright men when it is recalled
that he is quite young, barely past
the age of his majority. The GOLD
LEAF offers its congratulations with
those so freely given and unites in
the wish that Dr. Davis success in
his chosen profession may be as dis
tinguished as his course at college
was marked and creditable

ia Special" which runs solid from
Washington to Atlanta. Ga. and
which equipment was originally built
by the Pullman Palace Car Company.
is now undergoing thorough over
hauling and rebuilding at the Ports
mouth Shops. There is sufficient
equipment for five trains. The first
train was turned out of the shops to-
day and will leave tonight on No.
403 to 90 on the line between Wash
ington and Atlanta. when another
train will be taken off and run in
the shops while the entire five trains
will be rebuilt. and one train will be
always in the shops being overhaul
ed, reprinted and vanished. hence
the equipment will be always fresh
and new. This train, up to the
present time has been considered one
of the finest trains that has ever en-
tered the depot at Atlanta or Wash
ington. The new train, which comes
from the shops is to be by far the
handsomest train ever seen in the
State of Virginia. This train. COM
plete. is composed of mail. express,
baggage, second-class coach, first
class coach and two Pullmans. The
day coach of this palace on wheels
from outside appearance is exactly
like Pullman sleeper. and seats
seventy-four people. 1t is equipped
| with standard Pullman trucks from
the mail car to the last sleeper and
| vestibuled from end to end. The
new color is dark olive green with
silver trimmings, with the name Of
the train in script letters on the side
of each coach. The train is equipped
with Pintch light gas, having a sufii-
cient number of chandeliers to en-
able the passengers to read in any
part of the train. The train is heat
ed by steam and the day coaches
equipped like unto Pullman sleepers
| with lavatories and other conven-
fences. This train WILDE backed down
to the Union Station tomorrow, and
it will be a grand opportunity for
the patrons of the line and the citi-
zens generally to see one of the hand
soonest trains that has ever gone
over the rails of any railroad. Vice
President E. St. John is doing
everything he can to make the Sea-
board Air Line model road in every
possible way and he is being ably as
sisted by his energetic and hustling
