with the remains of Master Bruce Sell
man who passed away there yester-
day. Mrs. Selnan is awaiting the arr
rival Of Mrs. Ogletree from her home
at Charlotte, N. C.
The lad had been i'll only few days,
we are informed, and his sudden death
was a heavy blow to his mother, and
came as great shock to DIR. Douglass
who knew nothing of the boys being
sick. Young Selman had a lot of
friends here, having lived here several
years and visited his grandfather at
other times. His mother spent her
girlhood days here, and has a very
large circle of friends in this city
who deeply regret TO learn of her sad
bereavement. s
The funeral will take place late
Sunday afternoon at the home of DR.
and Mrs. J. E. Douglass, Rev. w. c..

Railroad Rates 3 Cents a Mile

The United States railroad admins
tration authorizes the following:
Director General McAdoo authorizes
the following announcement: g.
There will be placed on sale on or
about August l universal mileage
scrip at the basic rate of cents per
mile.
Each coupon of the ticket will repre-
sent the value of cents and can BE-
used for the payment of sleeping and
dining car charges and transportation
of excess baggage, as well as trans
portation on all trains or railroads

ductors at the time Of the presenta-
tion of the mileage scrip.
