W,' Bickett will appear before the new commerce court in Washington, representing the North Carolina Corporation Commis sion in the noted case the commis sion has been pushing for a long while and has partially won. compelling the Norfolk & Western Railroad Co. to apply lower freight rates in its freight hauls from Cincinnati a,nd other points west to Winston-Salem and Durham on account of the even lower rates of long standing that are enjoyed by Virginia cities from these points. The case is an appeal from the interstate com merce commission, the commission having already required the railroad to put on the reduced rates pending the appeal to the supreme court. Also At torney General Bickett won the "first heat" in the contest by defeating a re straining oraer sougnt Dy tne railroad companies from the commerce court against the operation of the order for lower rates by the interstate commis sion until the final determination of the appeal to the commerce court. The Southern and Atlantic Coast Line and The Seaboard Air Line joined wTith the Norfolk & Western in the litigation to defeat the reduction of the rates.

The reason a girl knows she is never going to have to wear false teeth is her mother does and nobody discovers it. r i i P. m snf a s U kJ tJ L'Jk u. u lmj nun " w ' W w w 1ST The Trea dMi Unto The Word say.

Rod man, general counsel for the Norfolk & Southern Railroad Co., was here yes terday conferring with Norfolk & Southern officials in Raleigh about matters pertaining to the Raleigh-Charlotte division of the road that is to be constructed and linked up by the Ral eigh, Charlotte & Southern Railroad Co., just organized with E. T. Lamb, of Norfolk, as president and E. C. Dun can, vice-president, states that he feels sure that the actual construction of the new line will be under w-ay within two months. The first work of this sort will be the building of a connection be tween the Norfolk & Southern as it cornea into Raleigh from Vashington, N. C, and the Raleigh & Southport which the N. & S. has bought to be used as a section of line for the Chav lote and "southern extension. The N. & S. comes in on the north side of the city and the Raleigh & Southport starts from the southern section of the city. Options around the city for phy sical connection, of the two roads have been procured and in most cases the transfers actually made. Col. Rodman expects that the lining up of the Ral eigh & Southport and the Aberdeen & Ashevoro and other short lines that the X. & S. has bought for getting through the Raleigh-Charlotte division, will be accomplished and the Concord-Charlotte division, will be accomplished and , the Concord-Charlotte extension con structed within eighteen months or earlier. Certainly the company pro- ; posed to push this construction work j just as rapidly as possible. FIRST LA GRIPPE, THEN BRON CHITIS. Such was the case with Mrs. W. S. Bailey, McCreary, Ky. "My wife was taken down with a severe attack of la grippe, which run into bronchitis. She coughed as though she had consump tion and could not sleep at ngiht. The Doctor's medicine gave her no relief and I was advised to try Foley's Hon ey and Tar Compound. The first bot tle gave her so much relief that she continued using it and three bottles effected a permanent cure." Mr. W. S. Bailey says he is prepared to an swer all inquiries ! promptly. Bowen's Drug Store. 3 Yeai Old Child Fatally Burned Special to The News. r Durham, Feb. 14. Grace James, the 'three-year-old daughter of Mr. John James, a prominent farmer living on the Guess road near Geer's mill, wras ' so seriously burned Monday that it is ! not expected to live. Mr. James was ' nut nf the hmiso and hln wlfA wns ' milking in the barn yard when the child was burned. She was playing with strips of papei-, and sticking these in the fire when her dress ; caught and the whole front was ' burned entirely off. The flames en veloped the child's head, and all the front part of the body from head to knees was burned almost into a crisp. The four-jrear-old 'brother of the little girl was in the room at the time, and had it not been for his presence of mind in pouring water on his sister, the child would prob ably have burned to death before any one could have reached her. The brave action of the little boy, how ever, only served to stay death lor a few short hours, for the physicians said that the child did not have one chance in a million to live.

Tutt Whit ney, as the star supported by a large cast of players Including, big chorus of. girls will be the attraction at the Ajdemy of Music this afternoon and .onight. - "The Smart Set" is this season pre senting an entirely new musical com edy entitled "The Mayor of New Town" and it is said to be even better-than any of their previous productions. The entire balcony and gallery has been reserved for colored people for this engagement. Seats are now .sell ing. Henrietta Crosman In "The Real Thing." , Tomorrow night at the Academy of Music, local playgoers will have the op portunity of seeing Miss Henrietta Crosman, one of America's greatest liv ing actresses in her latest and what is said to be the best play that the fam ous star has had since "Sweet Kitty Bellairs," "The Real Thing" which was written for Miss Crosman by Cather ine Chisholm Cushing. Miss Crosman appeared all last sea son in New York at the Maxine Elliott theatre in "The Reals Thing," and the play was one of the biggest successes of the season in the metropolis. There has been a heavy demand for seats, and Miss Crosman will be greeted by one of the largest and most fashionable audiences of" the present season. Theatregoers to Select Opera. Manager John L. Crovo has just completed arrangements to bring the famous Aborn English Grand Opera Company to the Academy of Music on Tuesday, March 26th. '.This noted organization plays very few cities that are not large enough to support an engagement of one week or more, and consequently it carriers complete and elaborate pro ductions for six different operas, all of which are presented in some cit ies, and only one, two or more in others, according to the length of engagement. The local management requests that all of the music lovers here and in surounding coties and towns let them know their first, sec ond and other choices in the list of operas given. The Aborn repertoire includes "Thais," "Madam Butter fly," "The Tales of Hoffman," ril Trovatore," "Lucia di Lammermoor" and "Martha," a most attractive group of works, all distinctly different from each other, and , each -- repre senting the most enjoyable features of its elsas. I "Thais," by Julian Massenet, the great modern French composer, was the vehicle in which Mary Garden "FROM THE MILL TO YOU" Made To 2 .J Worsted 7 MERCHANT 14 S.

It was first pro duced in English by Messrs.

A dra matic version of the same story was also one of the biggest hits of the past season on Broadway, and closely approached the great success of the opera. - N"Madam Butterfly," by Giacomo Puccini, the most famous of living Italian composers, the story of whiehr was taken from the drama of the same name by David Belasco ana John Luther Long, needs little intro duction to American operagoers, for its great success in both Italian and English is one of the striking in stances of recent theatrical achievements. Messrs. Aborn made an elaborate new production of it for their revival of this opera in New York last winter, which is now carrie"d intact by this com pany. Puccini is also the composer of "La Tosca," "La Boheme" and -The Girl of the Golden West." Jacaues Offenbach, the composer of "The Tales of Hoffmann," was the idol of Paris for a score of years where ms ueugniuu optsias tuumjuc THERE IS absolutely no-word to express the efficacy of Scott's Lmiilsloii II in' the "treatment-." of COUGHS, COLDS BRONCHITIS CATARRH, GRIPPE AND " RHEUMATISM - ALL DRUGGISTS 11-51 V V Measure TAILORS Charlotte, succeeded each other in cumulative esteem, each one outdoing the suc cess of its predecessor. "The Tales of Hoffman," was his last and greatest opera, first produced about thirty years ago, though it was not ade quately introduced to this continent until Hammerstein presented It as a novelty at the Manhattan, where its triumph was - instantaneous, and where it remained one of the strong est drawing cards in the repertoire every season. Shortly after the Ham merstein production in French four years ago, Messrs. Aborn gave "JThe Tales of Hoffmann" for the first time in English, and duplicated the .Man hattan success. x "II Trovatore,"' by Giuseppe Verdi, is one of the most familiar and pop ular of all grand operas, and no clas sic repertoire is complete without it. It is so well known, the world over, that it needs no extensive re counting of its musical and dramatic beauties. "Lucia di Lammermoor," by Gaeta no Donizetti, its pathetic and beauti ful story taken from Scott's famous novel, "The Bride of "Lammermoor," is one of the greatest of, all the lyric operas. ; SCHLOSS THEATRE CIRCUIT -Today Matinee at 3.
