A MINIATURE r. TRAIN.
Built Sin Raleigh Without Bonds and to be
Operated Fair Week.

A railroad that was built without float
ing bonds and that has no watered stock
the property of one man, who constitutes
the stockholders, board of directors, pres
ideut and engineer will be one of the
most interesting attractions at the State
Fair.
The railroad with its entire equip
ment of engine, cars and track was built
in Raleigh and is a perfect model in
miniature of the modern railroad. 1t will
be in operation Fair Week and though its
mileage is little more than 100 yards it
will transport thousands of passengers
over its lines.
The j. E. King Railroad Company Is the
name of this railroad. 1t is owned by
Mr. j. E. King, of this city and will be
operated for the first time next week.
The entire outfit is the creation of Mr.
Neil Spence's genius, who conceived and
built the engine and cars from his knowl-
edge of railway trains. The little engine
is a model in every respect of the power
full locomotives of today. 1t hauls one pas
senger coach and two gondola cars that
will seat thirty persons, making a speed
as high as fifteen miles an hour. 1t is a
unique and complete little railroad outfit,
the most perfect ever seen here.

his confidence SO far as to say in telling
of his ideal of wife:
Seriously, in my case being public
man, my wife would have to be hand
some. Then she would have to be at
tractive. for she would have to represent
me at the head of my table. | would also
want her to be a woman who could win
the men | could not reach. Mrs. Logan
was such woman. She did much to
make John A. Logan.
Besides this, | should like to have my
wife fond of her dressing gown and slip
pers and to spend her evenings at home
AS TO her age, she can be anywhere from
twenty-five to seventyfve. You see / am
liberal as to age. Youth is not always
the most necessary requisite in a bride.
