A pleasantly. or rather series Of
them. having an aggregate ground
area OF fifty or sixty feet. has been
erected in the State park opposite the
prison. but will not be used for the
purposes for which it was built until
next spring. These pheasantries are
modelled after those in the City park
at Denver. but are somewhat larger
and OF later design.
At presen, there are being cared
for At the prison poultry yards 100
Mongolian or Chinese rinE-nceked
pheasants and a corresponding num-
Der of Hungarian partridges are ex-
pected soon from the state game and

antries will have 1000 first class birds

TO TAKE OVER c. & n. W.!
Rum0red in Chester That Visit OF
Railroad Men Means Interurban.
Will Absorb Another Line.

Chester, Feb. 17-Much discussion
is being felt in this city today over
the report sent out from Lenoir, n. c.,
several days ago to the effect that
there was persistent rumor in that
city that the Carolina& Northwestern
railway is to be taken over by the
Piedmont & Northern lines An eff
fort was made here today to get some
definite information regarding the ru-
NOR from the officials of the rail-
way, Chester being the Carolina &
Northwestern official headquarters
The proper officials were not present
SO nothing could be learned The
Lenoir dispatch said that no con-
firmation could be had to this rumor
but it was said that the two interests
have been trying to get together on
terms for some time and the pres
ence. of the Dukes there last Thurs
day night lent credence to the report.
They came up to Lenoir on a special
train from Gastonia that night They
did not alight from their car and re-
turned to Hickory the same night. 1t.
is also reported that w A Barber.
president Of the Carolina & North
western, and a son OF j. P. Morgan
were in the party. 1t was also learn
ed here today that General Manager
L. T. Nichols was also in the party.
The Carolina & Northwestern rail-
way runs from this city to Edgmont, a
distance of 1873 miles. By taking over
this road, the Piedmont & Northern,
which is known as the interurban,
running from Gastonia to Charlotte,
would have connection with the Sea-
board Air Line, both at this point
(Chester) and at Lincolnton and it is
very closely allied with the Seaboard.
THIS would afford a direct route from
Charlotte and many other sections
of the State to the prosperous noun
tain country Another fact that lends
color continues this dispatch to the
report is that the Thornton Power
company at Hickory was recently
taken over by the Southern Power
company and there is no doubt but
that it is the intention of the cor
poration to enter this territory

Prof. Reese grabbed the faltering
wrist of the gentlemen who had come
forward from the audience and quick
ly announced the names of the per-
sons and the sum Of "rhino" as he had
promised. The gentleman who had
come forward from the audience had
to acknowledge that the answers were
correct. There was all sorts of spe-
culation and some little credence by
this time. The professor drove the
lesson home.
With a glance upon his constantly
increasing audience, he asked for an
other volunteer-another gentleman,
so to speak, came forward from the
audience When the professor had
told him the answers to all the ques-
tions he had written on the slips of
paper those who had come to scott
remained to ask questions. But the
professor had no time to answer any
more questions, he said He was in
a hurry to get to Russia
Indeed he did volunteer to do two
colored men, employed in that division
Of the State department, the service of
turning their noses and their ears
white, but they fed in terror.
4 do not tell fortunes" the profess
sor said. Il read the subconscious
mind. I don't pretend to tell what is
going to happen. I just tell people
what they know-what they are think
inc about"
Prof Reese asserted that he had
some letters which he said contained
the request that he visit the Czarina.
He said that he intended to call at
the Russian Embassy 20 as15 there for
more passports. but al The embassy
last night an official said that ne knew
nothing of Prof. Reese.
