That the people Of Raleigh are not
satisfied with the plans Of repairs and
changes now being made at Union
passenger station here is certain, and
commodicus station.
Seeking to have stopped plans now
being executed in repairing and re-
modelling the present depot, declared
to be inadequate and not worthy of
the city, a committee representing
the city, the citizens and business or
of Raleigh submit to the
North Carolina Corporation Cimmis-
sion that sufficient adjacent property
can be secured to build a modern and
station on the present site.
A petition was filed with the Commits
sion yesterday M it is understood
there will be a hearing next week.
The petition Is as follows:

TONS, we beg to submit the following
protest regarding the remodeIling of
he Union Passenger Station of this
city, and as a committee on behalf Of
these interests ask for hearing of this
QueStlOn before your honorable body.
First, we claim that the railroads
entering this union station entered
into this matter and submitted plans
for changes without giving the citizens
or Raleigh a proper hearing in the
matter, and that these plans, as now
outlined and accepted will O increase
the facilities for handling the travel
ing pubic in the name needed and
demanded by the city of Raleigh and
the general public.
second. 1t was claimed by the roads
When their plans were drawn that
lney could not secure by purchase
any property on the northern side Of
the depot, therefore they could not
enlarge the present building or make
the modern improvements needed to
handle the travelling public.
,Ihlrd, we are prepared to submit
ana snow that now the roads can pur-
chase Tor $4,000 the property on
lne northern side of the depot, said
property being seventy feet frontage

She met Mr.. Meyer on her visits

In the northwest she was consid-

New Light Plant at E~ncampment

Owing to the continued negli-
gence of the Emerson Electric
Light plant in supply ing the city
with light, a new company is to be
formed by Denver and Omaha cap
italists who will put in a first-class
plant. The council is to be asked
to grant a new franchise and the
plant is to be ready for business
in sixty days.
As usual the light plant is max
ing no effort to get their plhnt in
operation. In fact there is no one
here who has any authority to do
anything which makes matters
worse. This state of affairs has
been carried on as long as the city
will stand it. Hence the new
franchise will surely be grant

j. A. Mauk came in from the
ranch of Hopkins Bros, on Sage
creek, last Monday, bringing in %
coyote pelts and two bob cats.
He went before Judge Blood and
made proof of the destruction of
the animals and secured the bounty
of $1.25 each, netting him the
snug sum of $50. He packed the
hides for shipment and expects to
realize at least S125.00 from the
bunch. Mr. Mauk left here On the
2lst of January and every one of
the animals we're trapped since
that time. He is a very uccess
full trapper and has done better
in that line thai any one in this
part of the state. The fur is in
fine shape and his hides are all in
good condition. Coyote hides are
worth nearly S. apiece and bob
cat skins bring $l2 each when in
prime condition.

with interest. Rev. Forde has
just received the January and
Semi-annual report of his son,
Kenneth, who is in the Naval
Academy at Annapolis, and finds
that in January the boy stood first
in a class of 1872 in efficiency, and
that in his semi-annual report he
stood within the first five of the
class except in one study, Mathe-
matics. His average in all his
studies would bring him within
the first IS of his class. The grad
ing in these schools is exception
ally close, and a boy never gets
more credit than he deserves,
The privilege of attending such a
school is one that any boy may
covet, and when he is through he
will know that he has q thorough
education, as no slipping along il
permitted. A boy makes good
right from the start or he is sent
home. Kenneth's many friends
will be glad to know he is rank.

he is making good in the work

Husus Ranch Chances Hands

A Nh. Frederickson, of Denver,
one of the four men who bought
an option on the ranch of WaB.
Hugus, Jr., came up from Denver
Tuesday morning, received the
ranch from Mr.. Hugus and re-
rurned to Denver in the afternoon
of the same day. This is a deal
that has been pending for several
months and the option expired
on the first day of this month.
The new overs will arrive here
shortly and begin farming the
land and after a time it will be
cut up and sold to men of small
means who wish to go into truck
gardening, fruit and chicken
farming. The land being near
town will make the marketing of
their productions quite easy, as
we'll as furnishing Saratoga with
much needed supplies. There
are 1927 acres in the ranch and
$50 acres are within the town
limits. The consideration is
nearly $4,000.

Riverside Post Office Short

1t is rumored that the Postofice
inspector has found a large short
age in the post Office accounts at
Riverside amounting to nearly a
thousand dollars. The bondsmen
were called upon and made good
the amount. 1t is not known
whether any prosecutions are to
follow or not. The Postmistress
resigned and another was appoint
ed to the vacancy. There is talk
of abandoning the post Office in'the
near future and having the deliv-
cry made by the Downington
stage line.-Encampment Herald

At twenty minutes. to nine the
genial citizen, resplendent in
fresh linen, sailed into the tele-
phone booth. 1t was a hot day.
At fifteen minutes to nine the
somewhat less genial citizen, in
somewhat less fresh linen, finally
managed to attract the attention
of a sweet-voiced hello girl. 1t
was-you will recall-a hot day.
At ten minutes to nine a grouchy
citizen in white linen got his
party on the wire. 1t was hot.
At five minutes to nine the
wreck in question discovered he
had an entire stranger on the line.
The day grew warmer.
At nine o'clock the hello girl
informed him that he must not
USE the telephone as a plaything.
At a little after nine there issued
from the booth a dilapidated rem
nant, who drew from his pocket
a dollar bill. and first squeezing
from it the moisture it had collect
ed, laid it on the druggists counter.
What's thisP" inquired the
naughty drug clerk.
"One Turkish bath-one dollar
said the wreck. ~ pay for what
1 get"
Oh the joys of modern civiliz-
alton.
