Mr.. Walters Big Scheme.

If the Atlantic Coast Line has
leased the Louisville and Nashville,
two great railroad systemns have
become one The one skirts the
entire south Atlantic coasts, pene-
trating to Atlanta and Montgomery;
the other connects the middle west
with the gulf. The two together
would constitute the strongest single
system in the South.
Tue cons )lidation of the two com.
panies would promote the interests
of this section.
The Coast Line, under the skillful
leadership of Mr.. Walter, absorbed
the Plant system, and if 1t has now
annexed the Louisville and Nash
VILE, it ranks up among the great
systems Of the southeast. There
would then he IN the southeast but
five great systems, namely, the
Southern, the Seaboard, the Illinoi-
Central, the Frisco, and the Coast
Line. And Goldsboro being in t ouch
of two of these great systems the
Cost Line and the Southern and
with the A. & N. G. r.. e. to the
seas as an Independent stfety valve,
why sh 5uld we not go forward?

FITZHUGH LEE.

The death of Glen. Fitzhugh Lee,
after an illness OF only a few hours,
comes as a terrible shock to the en-
tire country. The gallant Confeder-
ate warriors of high rank have been
fast passing away, and Fitzhugh Lee
was one of only three or four survi-
vors.
Fitzhugh Lee was honored and
loved throughout the land. He was
plucky, big-hearted and sunny tenn
pered, and his personality was sim
gularly engaging. He came from a
line of statesmen-soldiers, and was a
favorite of his illustrious uncle,
Robert E. Lee.
Born in Fairfax county, Virginia,
in 1885, he entered the military
academy at West Point il 1856 and
vas graduated in 1856. He served
is a lieutenant in the regular army
until The beginning of the war be-
tween the north and the south. Re
signing his commission in the United
states army in 1861, he accepted a
Internationally in the Confede-
ate army and came out of the CON-
1ict a major general. He was a dash
tng figure in the battles of northern
Virginia, and was severely wounded
at Winchester.
From 1886 to 1899 General Lee
was governor of Virginia, and il
1896 President Cleveland appointed
him consul-general to Cuba. He. was
at the head OF affairs in the island
during the period Immediately pre-
ceeding hostilities between Spain
and the United States.
President Mckinley appointed Lee
a major general of volunteers, and IL
1891 he was commissioned a brigadiel
general of the United States army
and retired.
For two years General Lee .hae
been president of the jamestown
Exposition company, and had beel
highly successful in securing govern
ment and state aid for the exposi
ton, which is to be hell in 1907.
The whole nation will lament hi
taking off and here in the south
wherein he was endeared to every Cor
federate veteran, his memory wi
long be f)ndly cherished. The fee
ing is strong that 40 knightlier r
preventative of the "Lost Cause
lived than Fitzhugh Lee.

PROGRAMME.
The Man Who Lives.

The man who makes an honest
living by the sweat of his brow amid
sweet scented roses and song birds,
and who sleeps well and has a good
appetite, is to be envied by Carnegie
and Rockefeller in their embarrassed
condition of over production of
wealth and poor appetites. -.
Observation demonstrates that the
healthy man who has a Comfortable
living as a rule gets a great deal
more out of life than the man who
has worked himself into a nervous
state in his eager desire to accumu-
late a vast fortune.
Many a man who has no appetite
and knows not what it is to enjoy a
good nights rest would exchange
most of his money for these bless
ings.
