the Last Named City Within a
Year. Survey of Exten-
sim.

Within a year trains over the Raj
eigh and Cape Fear will be running
into Fayetteville.
The contract for bridge across
the Cape Fear at Ellington will prob
ably be given out this week.
A preliminary survey for the extern
sion of the Raleigh and Cape Fear
through Harnett and down into lower
Cumberland has been completed.
On Monday night President Mills
appeared before the Fayetteville
Chamber of Commerce in the interest
of the projected extension and in q
session characterized by strong enthu-
siasm he received assurances of cordial
cooperation. the granting of rights of
way and all necessary facilities in the
way of terminals.
These facts ascertained yesterday
are given on the HIGHEST authority.
Work on the extension of the road
will now begin with energy and con-
tinue until the project has been con-
vested into rushing throbbing reality
of men and steam and iron. Fayette-
Vile will get a new connecting line
putting trains into that city in the
early morning. and Raleigh will be
bound to the city on the Cape Fear by
closer and stronger ties.

TWELVE YEARS

cry to Whisky.

It has been twelve years, November
18th, since / finished taking the Keel
ey Treatment at Greensboro, N. c., for
the whiskey habit. / was forty-four
years old when l took the treatment.
/ had been q slave to alcohol for
twenty years. Since being cured at
your institute have never tasted Ii
quor nor any medicine that contained
alcohol, nor have l ever had any de-
sire to drink. l am sure it saved me
from a drunkard's hell.
The twelve years since / took the
treatment have been a blessing to my
self and family. 1t is so good to know
that l am cured man; and to know
if | am faithful to the end / will have
a home iii the Bright Beyond.

more heart wringing effect on the

CLEANING UP THE SMALLPOX.
Six Cases Left in Pest House-Diseasc
of Mild Type-the Reasons.

Sanitary Inspector Sale. who has
been playing hide and seek with the
sporadic cases of small pox which
have cropped out in Raleigh ever
since the man Scarborough and his
family elected to indulge quietly in
the disease last fall, stated yesterday
that there now remain only six pa
tients in the pest house, only one
of whom is a recent sufferer, the man
taken from the jail on Sunday last
Practically all of the cases have
been negroes recently, there having
been at one time as many as seven
teen confined in the pest house at
the city farm. Several of these came
from Shaw University, several wo-
men and two men. The women from
that institution have been discharged,
but the two men are still there, al
though they have practically recov-
cred. The Shaw University is still
under quarantine. the regulation time
not having expired since the last case
developed there. 1t is hoped now
that the summer will see the end of
the smallpox for a season at least,
Referring to the fact that all the
cases have been of a mild type, Mr..
Sale said that he understood from
doctors that the reason that the dis
ease was not so virulent as it was
formerly was due to the vaccination,
which has been more or less generally
practiced for twenty years or more.
Many of the patients have been vac
cinated in times past, the period of
immunity from contagion having
passed, and the disease is naturally
lighter with them than with those
who have never been vaccinated.
Likewise, there is thought to be some
ameliorating effect in the case of
children of parents who have been
vaccinated, even though they them
selves may not have been.
AS an illustration of the compare
tive harmlessness of the disease,
taken with the old epidemics that
slew their hundreds, it is interesting
to note that of the three or four
hundred smallpox patients that have
been treated by or under the observa-
ton of the Raleigh health department.
only five have died.
Besides the safety resulting from
vaccination, the decrease of mortali-
ty in the disease may of course be
attributed in great part to the adj
vance in methods of sanitation dur
ing the past decade.

]. Wiley Shook, the original and ire
irresistible, of Waynesville, was here to-
