road Notes


Judge John Paul, of the United States
District Court for the Eastern District.
of Virginia, has sent Col. u. p. Smith,
district passenger agent OF the Seaboard
Air Line, box of the finest cigars that.
can be made in the factories at y Dor City,
u suburb ofTampa. Years ago, more OF
them than Col. Smith will admit, perhaps
the latter was deputy clerk of the
United States Court at Danville. Judge
Paul frequently held court there. Of
course Col. Smith knew him we'll. Then
Col Smith went to rllroadiug. He
knocked about over the country good
deal and then went to Raleigh, where he
lived for several years as city agent of
the Seaboard Air Line. He served with
the North Carolina troops in Cuba dur
ing the Spanish war. The other morn
ing Judge Paul walked into the Seaboard
ticket office in this city. Col. Smith knew
him at once; he didn't know the Colonel
But it doesn't take anybody long to
know the genial North Carolinian, and
Judge Paul was delighted to renew ac
qua:.ntance with his former clerk. The
Judge and his wife and daughter were
on their way to Florida over the Sea-
board Air Line, and Colonel Smith took
pleasure in seeing that their trip was
made as comfortably as might be. The
cigars were sent as a mark of apprecia-
ton of recent kindness as we'll as for the
sake Of old times.
