ing made by the Seaboard Air Line In
the same respect. It will be of Inter
est to know that the Wilmington &
Weldon dlvlsloa of the Atlantic Coast
Line between this city and Goldsboro
is also being re-laid with the heavier
70-pound rail. The work has progress
ed from Goldsboro as far towards Wll

pound materia being put down In Its
place Is from the main line where the
still heavier 90-pound steel Is being
used. The 56-pound rail will be used
at unimportant points on the system

on the Coast Line is said to be pro
gressing much faster than oa the Sea
board, but on the latter road there Is
much to be done In connection with
the laying of the rail in the Improve

.With the advent of the car line to
that section there has been and ia still
continuing a wonderful development
to the eastward of the city. Since
the Delgado car, was added to the sys

than could be expected, and it Is ex
pected that the trade on this exten
sion win stlU further develop as the
suburbs out there begin to be settled.
Mr. Thos. W. Wood, who has
charge of the Carolina Heights prop
erty on the north side of the Market
street road, is beginning to develop
this attractive smburb and a limited

The map of this property shows
park reservation, the land for which
was recently tendered by the owners
to the city for acceptance. The ten
der was made through the citizens
committee appointed on this " work,
but for -some reason the tender was
never made through the committee to
the Board of Aldermen. The Board
of Aldermen meets la regular ses
sion Monday night, and -It Is hoped
that at that time the committee will
be prepared to tender the property
to the Aldermen and there should be
no doubt of Its acceptance. It is sua
ceptlble of high Improvement, Is well
located as to the established street
car line and It would seem that the
city could not afford to reject a prop
osition of so much Importance.
In addition to the developments that
are going on In this respect the con
vlcts of the county have about com
pleted grading .the .right of way for
the sour track to txaKt cotraxy rooa
quarry located on the ithodes place to
the east of the city. This extends
from 17th and Princess streets due
east to the National Cemetery fence
and along with that to the Market
street road and on out to the quarry.
The Consolidated Company agreed to
lay this track If the county would
grade the rlht of way. This has now
been completed and very soon tne
line will be In operation so that road
material may be delivered where It is
wanted.

eojuence of which Mr. Joseph B. Hin
der, a well known young Wllmliigton

Princess street Junction. City Car
No. 19, in charge of Motormaa Chris
tian Peterson and Conductor Gas kins,
was immediately following the Del
gado car in charge of Motanmjan Dar
dem Thety must have been rtonning
pretty close together and at a fair
rate of speed, for comparatively few,
if any, of the passengers knew what
had happened before both oars came
together with a crash, the Delgado
car having stopped suddenly at Sev
enth and Princess for a passenger. Mr.
Llnder must have been standing on
the rear of the city car for he was
thrown directly into the window in
front which was broken all to pieces.
Other passengers were thrown for
ward ixv their seats and it was some
minutes before anyone realized Just
what ihad happened. Motorman Peter
son either could not hold his car with
the brakes under the momentum and
the wet track or the brakes may . have
been out of order. The affair is being
Investigated by the Consolidated offi
cials with a rview of fixing the respon
sibility. Both cars had their fenders pretty
badfci smashed up and had to be sent
to the 6hed. Mr. Ldnder, whose wounds
were bleeding profusely, was able to
