RATES FOR FAR WEST.
Another Jump Took Place Yesterday on
Both the Direct and Indirect Routes.

Rates to San Francisco and other
California points again took jump
skyward yesterday to $6145 by way
of the direct route, and to 5000 by way
of the indirect route. Railroad men in
Worcester are of the opinion that the
raise in rates does not by any means
tend to show that there will be grad
ual return to the old rates, but chat it
will be case of a decidedly low rate
for the summer months. Last year the
rate was down to $50, and this summer
it may be even lower, although the
roads will not have heavy Hlon-
dixie travel as an inducement to war
against each other.

Blood

If the blood in sufficient guam
tity leaves the body because of
a wound or hemorrhage of the
lungs the result is death.
Life depends on the blood
because the blood carries to all
parts of the body the nutritive
elements necessary to sustain it.
What if these nutritive ele-
ments are ABSENT
What if they are supplanted
by poisonous, effete matter and
disease gertnsl
The first result is disease-par-
tial death. The final result is the
same as from loss of blood.
All disease is traceable to i'm
purity or weakness of the blood
and that is the reason the

INTERESTING REPORTS FROM

ton Schools. The Attendance of Mem
bers of the Associat on
Very Good.

The Association of City School Super
intendents met last evening at the Cen
tennial School.
All the superintendent present made
brief reports of their years work. The
remarks of Superintendent Mathison, Of
Durham, in regard to manual training
in the schools under his supervision We're
of especial interest. Cooking is taught
in the coored public school in Durham to
about seventy pupils. The plant cost
about three hundred dollars. The teach
er is paid thirty-fve dollars a MONTH
and the cost of material used is about
seven dollars a month for the entire NUM-
Der. This feature of the school is very
popular with the people of both races.
When the report from Wilmington was
called for, Prof. Noble, the former super
intendent, in the absence of Superinten-
dent Blair called attention to the fact
that Wilmington had the veteran school
committeeman of the State in the person
Of Mr.. james III. Chadbourn, who for
more than a quarter of a century has
served with zeal and enthusiasm, ever
shrinking from efforts to gain personal
notoriety and always laboring to pro
mote the efficiency of the schools.
The following members of the associa-
ton were present:
Superintendents w. C. Lane,
Albemarle; j. d. Eeggleston, Jr., Ashe-
vile; j. \. Matherson, Durham; j. l.

attendance to-day. The association WIS
organized fourteen years ago, and has
met during the Christmas holidays
every year since its organization.
The Attendance at this meeting is the
largest III the history of the association.
and the credit for its success is largely
due to the energy and good manage
ment OF Superintendent T.. +. Mangum,

BIG CHRISTMAS TRADE.
Merchants Report a Fine Ant Holiday
Business.

With the end of the holiday business
there has come breathing spell for
merchants and clerks and they are en-
joying a rest, made pleasant by the
knowledge of having enjoyed an enor-
nous Christmas trade. Business has
been better than last year. they all say.
THIS has been true of every line of trade,
The only regret expressed by any of them
is that the final trading day before
Christmas was married with a down
pour of rain. In spite of it business was
heavy, but there is a certain sort of
trade. which always holds off till the
last night. This was without doubt
seriously curtailed. No complaints are
being made, however, since the sum total
Of the trade was all that could be ex-
pected.
A noticeable characteristic of the bust
ness this season is that the purchasers
have sought for the most part, more ex-
pensive goods than heretofore. This is
proof conclusive that the people are en-
joying greater prosperity than hast year.
The jewelry stores, from reports have
had decided Improvement in business
over the same season of last year. Toy
stores have done big business, but
probably have not experienced the same
increase that other lines of business
have The dry goods stores, most OF
which carried special lines of Christmas
goods, report improvement over last
year. In every other line from all indi.
cations, the increase has been very salts
factory.
Christmas stocks have been pretty
generally exhausted so that no great
amount of money will be tied up in them
for the coming year. One dealer tells
me that last year most of his profits
were wasted on the leftover stock
This year he bought more judiciously
did an immense business, and has very
little of his stock left.
Some of the stores were open half the
day on Christmas. Other stores, how
ever remained closed and merchants and
clerks enjoyed full days rest ant
Christmas enjoyment.
