nortgage of S5,ooo,o 900.

Possibly the largest mortgage ever
given in North Carolina was recorded
with the register of deeds OF Wake
county on Thursday. Ii was the trust
deed authorized by the stockholders OF
the Raleigh and CASTOR railroad in ia
vor of the Continental trust company
of Baltimore, to secure an issue of
$50, ,0O0,0 first consolidated mortgage.
A brief summary of this instrument
was given in the Post together with a
number of interesting facts connected
with it. 1t required $3.50 in war
stamps to legally put the mortgage on
record. Fifty $50 stamps and two 10
cent stamps were used. The amount
received by the county for recording
the mortgage was only s27, a mere
bagatelle when compared with the tar
if paid the government. The railroad
paid the county s23.50 for registration
of the document and $3.50 for proba-
ton and seal certificates.

THREE NEW FACTORIES.
Brilliant Outlook for High Point This
Year.

The present year gives promise of
record breaker in building factories in
High Point. Besides the new factory,
the Lindsey chair company, organized
there few days since, three more in
course of organization and it is more
than probable that the names of the
contemplated enterprise. will be forth
coming in a few days. Messrs. Oscar
and Gurney Kearns and their associ-
ates will build factory soon. AS yet
they have no: come to any decision as
to the line of goods they will manufac.
ture. A company for the manufacture
of pants is being gotten up by Mr.. J
Henry Mills. The capital stock of the
company will be $4,000 and about all
the stock has been subscribed. Mr.. A.
R. Hammer, late superintendent of the
Piedmont Table company, and others,
will erect a wood working plant soon.
The class of goods to be manufactured
has not been decided upon.

Edward Owen, commander of the camp
presided. While the dinner was in
progress, Mrs. Jefferson Davis was es-
corted into the centre box in the bal
cony overlooking the banquet hall. She
was given an ovation. Fans and nap
kins were thrown In the air. and flow
ers were flung to the box from the ia
bles below. In a short time Mrs. Davis
was surrounded by group which de-
serted the banquet tables to greet her.

more was accordingly held by the
widow of the former head OF the Con-
federacy.

responded to the toast 1.-The South Be-
yond Her Borders" The speaker first
referred to the part played by the
South in the upbuilding of the city Of
New York. He then spoke on Stone
wall Jackson, and paid that Southern
hero a stirring tribute. He next told of
the life of General Lee as a civilian
and as president of an educational
institution, and said that 'his motto
| was duty is the sublimest word in
the English language" He alluded in
glowing terms to che life-wOrk of Mrs
Jefferson Davis.
Letters of regret were read from
President Mckinley, Governor Roose-
welt, Mayor Van Wyck and Colonel
| Longstreet, of New Orleans. The letter
| from President Mckinley was as fol-
| lows:
II received your kind letter invit-
| ing me to be present and responded to
a toast at the tenth annual banquet Of
| your camp on the 10Th inst, and I
regret very much that engagements al
ready made prevent me from sending
an acceptance. The cordial feeling Of
mutual respect and good will existing
between the sections OF our now &c
united country, among all the people
is most gratifying to me- It would af-
ford me peculiar pleasure to be with
you on this occasion and give renew
ed expression to my grateful apprecia-
tion of the promptness and patriotism
with which the citizens OF the South
as we'll as CT the North, respond to the
call of their country, and of the ever
increasing help they are giving to
those things which contribute to It's
permanence and influence"

First Class POStOffice

1t seems an assured fact that the
Charlotte postoffice will be graded as a
first class postoffice after the 3Oth 81
March. According to the regulate 5
a postoffice must receive $4,000 or
more, as actual receipts for stamps,
money orders, etc, sold during the Pc
riod of year before it can be ranked
as first class Office. The Office needs
to receive only $1,000 in additional
sales by the 3Oth of March, when it
will have received the necessary s40,-
600. It's receipts have been a good deal
more than $4,000 for each quarter;
and in the next five weeks the sales are
sure to be largely in excess of the ST.
900.
