POURED LIQUOR
IN THE STREET
The Thirsty Curious Shifted and
Snified-Not a Drop 10 Drink

Old booze has held decided sway
in and about the court house today.
In the first and foremost place, the
100 or more gallons in the sheriff's
Office. captured by the deputies, has
been the center of attraction and the
occasion of all kinds of comment,
witty and otherwise, during the
whole day. To intensity the thirst
of the morally stunted, occasioned
by the sight of so much forbidden
product of corn, Chief Freeland
emptied into the gutter this morn
ing some Is or 20 gallons, which
filled the air with the once familiar,
but almost forgotten, ordor. Tho
crowd deserted the sheriff's office
momentarily and turned out to wit

carriage drivers forgot for once their
customary salutation to strangers ar
irving from the station and crowded
around the chief; travelling men on
their way to the station forgot the
hour of the leaving OF their train;
citizens passing by stopped. and as
the sparkling fluid mingled with the
dirt laden water in the gutter there
were many signs Of regret and ex-
pressions of disapproval at the out
rage that was being perpetrated by
the chief.
The spirits turned out by the chief
was some that had been accumulat-

General Carr Wednesday intro
duced into the house a bill 10 author-
ize the building of railroad from
Durham to Chapel Hill. The act
authorizes the discontinuance OF the
road from University Station in OPP
Grafton at the present time. II pro-
yides that the actual work Of con-
struction on the new road must De
begun within one year and the road
must be in operation within two
wears. Under the bill the railroad
can be operated by either electric OF
steam power.
The question of building a road
from Durham to the state university
has been advocated for years. The
inconvenience Of connection under
the present arrangement and the
general condition of the service has
been a source OF annoyance for many
wears The citizens of Chapel Hill
and Orange county have recently
taken up the matter and have sent
I'M their hearty endorsement.
The sun has il from good authority
that the company operating the pres
ent road is really behind the move
ment. and will build ihe line as soon
as permission is given by the legisla-
ture. Ii has not been decided defi-
nitely. as vet, whether the road will
be operated with steam or electric
ity. but it is very probable that il
win be the latter.
The present road from University
Station TO Chapel Hill was built in
1873. The company operating the
road declares that it has never been
a paving business Ii would have
doubtless been discontinued long ago
aid il been possible 10 secure the
permission of the legislature. A
road from Durham TO Chapel Hill
would without doubt be a paying
business on account of the large
amount Of freight and increased pas
senger business
OF interest in this connection. is
the fact that when the present road
was built, General Caar worked day
and night TO have the road built
from Durham instead OF from Uni
versity Station. General Carr
pledged s7.000 OF his own money
and the promoters of the road Offer
ed TO change their plans il General
Carr could raise $500 additional.
This be Was unable to do al the time
and he was overruled when it came
10 the final vote on the location.
Durham was AZ that time very
small village and did not count much
against University Station as far as
railroad patronage was concerned.
Since that time, General Carr has
been hammering away al the ioca-
ton from time to time and il seems
that he is 10 finally see his efforts
crowned with success.
The bill, as introduced by General
Carr. was drawn BY Major Guthrie
al the request or Dr. senabie, OF the
university.
II reads as follows.
