COMMISSION ENJOINED.
THE JUNE CROPS.
A Temporary Injunction By Southern
Railway to Head Off Prior.; Injunc
tion of the Commission.
Special to The News. v .
Raleigh, June 12. As the members
of the North Carolina Corporation
Commission were leaving, their, office
last evening after 6 o'clock Deputy
United States Marshal J. T. Sharp
served on them a temporary injunc
tion secured by the Southern Railway
Company from Judge Thomas R. Pur
nell of the United States Court here
restraining the Commission and any
.other parties concerned from sueing
the Southern for penalties in connec
tion with the Southern's refusal to
obey the order of the Commission to
not change the schedule of train No.
Ill at Raleigh so it would pass on to
Greensboro at 11:59 P.. M. instead ot
waiting here until 1:40 A. M, as in the
past and also enjoining the Commission
against interfering at all with this
schedule on the ground that all
branches of the Southern are parts of
a single system engaged in inter-State
commerce. The Commission is direct
ed to appear before Judge Purnellj
June 21 and show cause why the tem
pqrary injunction should not be made
permanent.
It is specified that the injunction is
not to operate in any way against any
regular proceeding pending before the
Commission and the Southern declare
their purpose to file formal answer
with the Commission tomorrow to the
complaints that have been filed with
them agaisst the change of the sched
ule. The Southern charges further
that the great number of petitions
which have been filed with the Com
mission against the change of schedule
were gotten up by parties in Raleigh
meaning the president and agents
of the company in Raleigh publishing
the morning newspaper and were sign
ed by many with complete misappre
hension of the situation. The South
ern declares that the records show
that the connection at Raleigh by their
train with the northbound Seaboard at
f:20 A. M. is sought through, the
Corporation Commission to further
the Southern to maintain was actually
made only six times during April and
May and that it is of far more import
ance to operate on the new schedule
and connect with Southern train No.
39 at Greensboro at 4:12 for Salisbury,
Asheville and Spartanburg, S. C, Char
lotte and Atlanta than to attempt to
make the Seaboard connecion at Ral
eigh, failure here being due to the
operation of unweildy consolidated
trains from Hamlet to Norlina.
Secretary T. K. Bruner of the North
Carolina Horticultural Society, gives
notice that the society will hold an
important meeting at Aberdeen, Fri
day, June 29, when an effort will be
made to broaden the influence and in
crease the scope of the work of the
society. Members are called upon to
provide baskets of seasonable fruits
for exhibition in connection with the
meeting. In the call for the meeting
it is stated that if possible arrange
ments will be made for holding two
fruit fairs in the State each year--spring
and fall. J. Van Lindley, of
Greensboro, is president of the society.
Educators are pouring into Raleigh
from all parts of the State for the
twenty-third annual session of the
North ' Carolina Teachers' Assembly,
which convenes tonight. At the open
ing session tonight the address of wel
come will be delivered by IVIr.' Joseph
G. Brown, president of the Raleigh
Chamber of Commerce, and the re
sponse by Supt. W. H. Ragsdale, of

nesday evening.
A big delegation went from Raleigh
this morning to Lillington for the Dem
ocratic convention for this judicial
district, the principal purpose of which
will be the nomination of a candidate
for solicitor. They are pledged to the
re-nomination of Armistead Jones, of
Raleigh, who has no opposition. The
district consists of Wake, Johnson and
Wayne counties.
The absence of Alderman Grimps
from the city necessitates the post-J
ponement ot the calling of the special
meeting of the aldermen to pass on
the petition presented by Rev. Syl
vester Betts for an election in Raleigh
on the question of "dispensary" or
"prohibition." The meeting will be

SMOKING A CIGAR.
Curious Bet That Shows an Impossible
Way of Smoking.
"I have a customer who thinks he
smokes twenty Wadsworth Bros.' Chi
cos a day," said Mr. Sheppard. "As a
matter of fact, he gives away a good
many, but it is his firm belief that
he smokes more cigars than any other
man in Charlotte. He says he is wil
ling to bet that no man can even
smoke one cigar continuously until it
is consumed without taking it from his
lips, and he has won a good many
boxes of Chicos on this simple bet.
"Of course, this man's trade keeps
us buying Chicos right along, but aside
from what we sell him ,Chicos have
the largest sale of any cigar in our
case.
"We warrant it clear Havana filler,
and although it sells for five cents
it is equal to any ten cent goods. We
cannot recommend it too highly."
