Romora Current that Solicitor Harlot Clarkaon and Others Are Planning to lilock Proposed Kxteaudoai of tha City limits WUI Urge ft Zlg-Zag Bonndry Instead Who Are Behind ;th MclKmor . . ,i., ' , Rumor ' haa It that v strong lobby of -Charlotte cltlaana . la . belna organ- teed to'.Qgbt tha proposed I 1-X' mile extension , of the city' limit - Which cornea , up In tha' Legislature next month. Tha parties concerned " have bean working under cover for several weeka past eager to attract as little attention aa possible In view of Che weighty public opinion v adverse to their scheme. It Is reported that So .llckor Herlot Clarkaon and others are betalnd tha move. A number of quiet meetlnga have been held recent ly concerning which strange rumor nave been circulated. Just what took placa at theaa sessions has not yet transpired, for all thoaa present have persistently refused to talk. A word dropped hara and ttaere haa enabled a few Interested extension Ista to piece together a very plausible story as to what la brewing. In brief, tha report Is that Solicitor Clarkson.and associates, who are known t9 be opposed to a 1 1-1 mil extension, favoring rather a one-half mile boundary, are working to pre suade the county legalsltors that sudt an .expansion would be suicidal to Una bualneaa Interests of the city and con trary to all precedent, giving Char lotte a greater incorporated area than any other city of Its population In tha country. Rattier they urge that tba limits be extended In the directions of tha city's growtln. taking In Oil worth, Elisabeth Heights, Piedmont Park and a few of tha Improved su burbs. As to whether they will be able to accomplish their purpose is yet to be determined. Certainly they sre bringing strong pressure to bear. Tne fact la known that not one of the county's representatives has ever committed himself to the 2 1-S mile proposition. All have expressed them selves In favor of extension, but none have committed themselves ss to just what tha new boundry -Mould be. Rumor has It that those opposed to a I 1-$ mile circular limit, are advo cating a slg-cag line, taking In the sections already mentioned and leav ing out tha undeveloped farm lands within. Associated with Solicitor Clarkaon In this move are a number of ant l-ex tensioning residing out about the proposed 1 1-2 mile limit a number of Unose owning farm land within the proposed limits who re side In the city and a number of pro htbltlonlsta who sre afraid that ir the proposed limits sre authorised by the Legislature the city would go wet. As to the variety of these rumors, nothing definite could be learned yes terday owing to the absence of So licitor Clarkson from the city. They bear many of the earmarks of truth. ihowever. and explain some strange things which have happened recently. These reports have ben freely circu lated and are causing considerable speculative discussion in certain clr rles. It Is needless to add that Char lotte people will watch the develop ments with mucin Interest. Tlie Southern Freight Yards. The work on the new Southern freight yards In North 'hut lotto Is progressing slowly. R. V. Klvtnac A Company, contractors, have two large stesm shovels and several hundred mules and laborers to do the ex rsvstlng. When once the steam shovels aet to work In earnest the dirt will fly. More than a half million cubic yard of material will have to be moved to make way for the North Charlotte freight yards. Ttio Kcw Selwyn Hotel. The elevators In the new Selwyn Hotel hsve been Installed, all the tiling and most of the marble work has been finished, the walls are now being pHpered and carpeted and the furniture Is being moved In. Thr furnace Is kept hot all the lime and the building pcrferctly comfortable Those In ehsrgo stHte that the hotel ll be readv for opening Kobrusn 1st without fall.

Not Irreverently or Lightly but Reverently and GrateluLy While I was nursing my second child, my breast broke out with an Itchlna humor, which was very an noying and painful when my baby nursed. It also affected my baby's mouth, and my physician advised me to wean my baby, which I did, and my breast got well. My third child waa born four years afterwards, and three months after the same troubla returned on my breast. My physl clan again advised me to; wean the child, but I did not want to do thla If possible to avoid It. Then he sug gested that I write to Mrs. Joe Per son, which I did. and she sdvtsed me to useb her Remedy, as she had known It to cure similar cases. I bought one-half doxen bottles of the Remedy. The first bottle brought the trouble to the surface and my breast seemed a great deal worse. On the second bottle the eruption com menced to dry up. and before I took the one-half dosen bottles my breast was well, and I am now nursing my baby, 15 months old. I believe as Implicitly In the merits of Mrs. Joe Person's Remedy as I no in my uoa in neaven, and I ssy this not Irreverently or lightly, but reverently and gratefully. MRS. T. U PKLLARS.
