NEW COMPANY FORMED.
To Build That Electric Railroad That
AIamance Wants and Ought
to Have.
Especial to News and Observer.)

Especial to News and Observer.)
Sometime in the near future Ala
nance county is to have one of the
longest electric railroads in the State.
1t will be twenty-five miles long, con-
Meeting the towns OF Burlington, Ora
ham, Haw River, SwepsOnville and
River Falls. These are all principally
factory towns and some of them six
or eight miles from any railroad, SO
this proposed electric line will be a
great thing for the mill owners as
well as for the town through which
it runs.
There was a charter granted some
time ago to the Graham, Burlington
and River Falls Railway Company,
but for some reason the plans were
never perfected and a new stock COM
pany has been organized under the
name of The Alamance Supply Rail-
way Company, ]. w. Minfee, of
Greensboro, president. The company
is incorporated for $125,000. They
will develop q water-power plant
with an eighteen hundred horse-p power
capacity, using five or six hundred
horsepower to operate the road and
selling the remaining power for
lights and other things to the different
towns within its reach.
There is to be meeting of all par
ties interested on November 10, 1904,
for the purpose of perfecting the
plans so that work can be COM
menced as soon as possible.
If this plan is carried out it will
not be many years before Graham,
Burlington and Haw River, which
are only two miles apart, will be as
one town.

FREE TO FARMERS
Trees for Those
Who Apply For
Them.

Prof Gerald Mccarthy Biologist
of the Agricultural Department, has
issued the following circular let
ter:
THE past several seasons eXper-
fence in k-growing in North Caro-
ma has demonstrated that the Wo-
men and children of this State may
by light and interesting work during
six weeks of early summer, and with
out interfering seriously with the or
binary duties, each earn from $50 to
$40. Those who can devote more
time to the work may earn more.
Every pound of silk cocoOns grown in
North Carolina in 1904 has been sold
at so cents to 500 per pound.
1t is necessary to increase the
available supply Of silk-worm food.
Every farm and village lot in North
Carolina, having dry soil, should have
at least 100 trees.
THE fruit of seeding mulberries is
excellent for poultry and hogs. The
roots spread widely near the surface
of the soil and will prevent even steep
hillsides from washing. We recon-
mend that farmers plant Seeding
rnulberries 12x12 feet apart, permit
ting the plants to branch low. Use
the field as a run for poultry OF hogs
and allow the children of the family
to have the leaves for feeding silk
worms as a source of pocket money.
I'm order to encourage the planting
of the white mulberry, the North
Carolina Department of Agriculture
will distribute during the fall of 1904,
among the farmers of the State, root
ed seeding trees in lots of so and
100. Not more than 100 will be sent
to one person. Recipients of trees
will be required to pay postage or
express at the rate of one cent per
tree This amount must be enclosed
with application. Send stamps or
money order-not bank checks.
Address applications to and make
money orders payable to the under

TYPHOID FEVER CASES.
The Cause of Scourge at Baptist Or
phanage Unknown.

The cause for the Typhoid fever
scourage at the Baptist Orphanage
has never been ascertained. 1t was
first thought to have come from the
wells, but the chemists report that the
water in the wells was not infected.
That does away also with the theory
that fies brought it from the wells.
The trustees have wisely voted $4,000
to be spent in a system of water
works.
Writing of the situation now at the
Orphanage. superintendent j. b.
Boone says:
There are today, November Sth)
ten cases in the infirmary, four of
whom are new cases since our last re-
port. But the number in the inflrm-
airy does not give the extent of trouble:
we have in the recovery rooms in
the other buildings twenty-five which
makes ten cases requiring attention.
1.-THE ten in the hospital keep a
nurse busy from seven o'clock a. m.
to p. m. taking temperatures, giving
baths, using ice caps and hot water
bags and attending to their diet, be-
sides two boys and two girls to help
them. And three nurses from seven
p. m. to seven a. m.
And this has gone on from the
llth of July till now. During which
time ,he matron in charge of the in
Urinary got sick and had to go home
the trained nurse got sick and had to
leave, another nurse had to go home
for q while and two others of our own
force got sick and were in bed for
while. Two of our teachers have
stood up to this hospital work during
the whole four months period. Mrs
Huett, who nursed her own boy in the
beginning, has been retained and has
gone through the whole period till
now without tagging. In addition to
our forces we have had two profess
sional nurses very efficient voluntary
nurses. who are rendering exceedingly

ALICE Is "ALL THERE"
Charming Farce Comedy the Bill at
Academy Tomorrow Night

Few plays produced in recent years
have so unanimously captured the
good will and enthusiastic common
dation of both the press and the pub
lie as has the successful farcical COM
edy, Alice, Where Art Thou?" by
H. J. w. Dam, which will be pre-
scented at the Academy of Music on
the evening of Saturday the 18th of
November.
The reasons for this are at once
obvious when the play is seen. 1t is
clean, clever, full of ingenious COM
plications, contains bright music,
catchy songs, including a number of
ensemble numbers and has for its
theme a domestic miX-up that to
those auditors who are not married
as just as side-splittingly funny as it
is to those who know the matrimonial
yoke. The company is large and capa-

was phlegnatic even beyond kingly

tried to play the part by the bigness
of his strides, apart from which he
got little out of the character.

artists and the scenic effects well car
ried out
On the whole the play may be said
to be a mixed success. Certain parts
were we'll done-and others were
"done." The company. as a whole,
however, is above the average. Par
ticularlv to be commended was the act
