NO NEW STATION
NOW CONSIDERED
Revival Of Ancient Rumor I'm
founded-Enlarge Facilities
at Elba.

Reports said TO be current yester-
day in regard to the erection OF a
great passenger station on West Broad
Street by the Richmond. Fredericks-
burg and Potomac Railroad Company
were denied yesterday BY officials of
the company, who state that the only
plans OF that character now on foot
are for an enlargement of PASSENGER
facilities at Eliza. For twenty years
past the railroad company has owned
and acquired roper on West Broad
Street as occasion presented. 1t now
owns the Richmond Baseball Park, the
grounds of the Hermitage Golf Club
and q large tract near the intersection
OF the Belt Line and Broad Street
Road. just at the western edge of
the new city limits. 1t was at this
point that the latest report indicated
that the road contemplated erecting q
new passenger station-one that would
allow all through trains to go back
out over the Belt Line. and so pro-
vide for the eventual abandonment OF
the present tracks down Belvidere
Street through the city.
While in a general way some such
plan has been talked of for years,
w. D. Duke. assistant to the presi-
dent, said last night that no immedi-
ate proposition looking to this end
was now before the company: tina in
fact the only matter relating to pas
Eenger facilities in Richmond was the
enlargement Of Elba. That very neat
and attractive little stop on West
Broad Street, intended primarily for
suburban service to Ashland and In
termediate points. has been outgrown.
and its facilities Will be increased in
some way. though no new station is
anticipated for the present.
Probable Final Outcome.
Ultimately the general plan will no
doubt be carried out. the tracks in
Broad Street and Belvidere Street
abandoned, and the present Byrd
Street Station reduced in size and con-
verted into only a suburban station for
local and Petersburg trains. All
and S%eaboard. could then be brought
into the new west end station. which
would also accommodate all trains for
Washington and points North. Mean
while the Belt Line railroad. In anti
cipation of further growth of the city
westward, has been eliminating grade
crossings by Installing overhead
bridges for Cary, Grove and Broad
Street E.oads, Just beyond the new city
limits.
The Belvidere street franchise is a
perpetual right. which the city, under
opinion of the City Attorney. cannot
revoke, but both the present City At
torney and his predecessor. Charles
V. Meredith, have held that the city
may impose reasonable restrictions.

Fayetteville. N. c.. September 2s.--
Suit has been Instituted in the Supe-

3. r. Lacy, State Treasurer. and Major
j. c.. Vann, of this city. to determine
the identity of the Fayetteville indie
pendent Light Infantry, the second old
est military organization in the State.
The suit is entered by Company +,
Second Regiment, North Carolina Ma
tional Guard. No complaint has been
filed, so any statement as to what the
allegations will be is only hearsay. The
controversy arose shortly after tho
entrance of Company F. composed of
F. I. l. I. members. into the National
Guar in 1910. Since then Company F
and The Gray" Company. commanded
by Major Vann, have each claimed to
be the original Fayetteville Independ-
ent Light Infantry. 1t Is said the suit
Will be to determine whether the State
is to recognize one company in tina

KEEPING BEES ON AMY FARM

1t requires no more intelligence and

farmers have bees. If ii is lack OF
knowledge that keeps them from il

books that would give the desired in
formation. If 1t Is a fear Of bee
stings. these may be prevented by
certain appliances. Surely 40 II

the necessary equipment need not
cost much. Perhaps some have been
led to believe, through foolish BOWS
paper reports, hat bees are injurious
to fruit. This is 0 so. Bees cannot
break the skin OF any fruit. Because
they are cen sucking the juice OF
punctured grapes they have been
falsely accused OF doing the punctur-
ing.
Honey is the purest and the least
harmful Of sweets. The farmer could
just as we'll as not get a few hundred
pounds for use on the pancakes. The
honey crop is clear gain, TOR no flow
ers need necessarily be raised to pas
