PECK, Local Manager. In Concord Friday Large Audience Hears Lecture at Pastime Theatre. The Southern Railway's (rood road train, in charge of Mr. Y. J. Hurlburt, of the land and industrial department. witn JVlessrs. Lu E. Boykin and II. S. Fairbanks, engineers c the United States Department of Good Roads. was in Concord Friday. The purpose of the railroad in having this train to visit the towns and "tiea alon? its lines is to create stronger interest in building and maintaining the public roads and thereby adding to the wealth and prosperity of the section it traverses. The members of the good roads party lectured at tho Pastime Theatre that norning at 11 o'clock, where they met by an audience that crowd ed the seating capacity of the room, the most of whom were farmers. Mr. Hurlburt was the first speaker. He took as his subject two counties, one in Alabama and one in Tennessee, and showed the results obtained by them in building a system of roads af ter issuing $200,000 bonds. One coun ty hired an expert engineer at a cost of $2,500 a year immediately after the bonds were issued, and gave him instructions to make a survev kf whero tb.9 roads ought to go, irrespec tive of what the property owners might claim for damage. When he had completed the survey the road commissioners asked for bids on the work. The contractors worked under the supervision of the county's road expert and a fine system of public roads was the result. Mr. Hurlburt stated that county paid $10,000 in terest annually on the ponds and in order to meet this the tax rate was raised. Soon after the roads were built land values began to increase by leaps and bounds and new fac tories and enterprises were starred up, making the county so prosperous that the revenue was increased to such an extent that the tax rat, -was decreas ed even lower than it was before the bonds were issued. Mr. Hurlburt stated that in his de partment they received a number of inquirers concerning farms in'., the South and that they were often visit ed by the prospective purchaser, who would return to the departmnet and report that he liked the farm, the climate, the people, and conditions and would gladly locate there except the roads were so bad he could not get his produce to market after he had produced it. The other county he referred to was in Alabama, where the road commis- j sioners decided they would, not go to the expense of employing a road ex pert but would let their own road su pervisors do the work. They issued the $200,000 bonds and divided the county in eight districts, with eight supervisors in charge. In two years time the roads were in equally as bad condition as they were before the money was spent for the simple rea son that they did not employ scienti fic methods and knowledge in con structing them, but adopted the old and antiquated supervisor system. Moving pictures were then exhibited showing various kinds "of roads in ev ery section; which were explained by Engineer Boykin. Mr. Boykin em phasized the fact that the t. extra blacksmith expense incurred by going over bad roads wrould exceed the in crease in taxes caused by issuing bonds. The pictures also showed the improved schools, churches, and com munities where good roads have been built and nothing more clearlv em phasized that larger loads and more convenient modes of travel than the good roads shown by the pictiures. There are three cars to the good roads train, one used to exhibits specimens of road work, one for a lecture car and the third is the private car of Mr. Hurlburt, in which the party travels." They left Friday afternoon attached to No. 7 for Charlotte. Funeral of Mrs. E. F. Correll. The funeral service over the re mains of Mrs. E. F. Correll was held at the home on South Union street Saturday at 10 o'clock, conducted by Mrs. Correll 's pastor, Rev. P. T. Durham, assisted by Rev T. W. Smith. Many beautiful floral designs were placed on the casket and in the room, tokens of love and friendship from many who knew Mrs. Correll. and who, knowing her, could but love her. Several selections were sung bv'the choir composed of Mrs. P. T. Dur ham, Miss Ruth Coltrane, Mr. Ed. Sherrill and Mr. V. L. Norman. Mr. Durham made a most beautiful talk, referring to the sublime faith and patience through suffering of Mrs Correll and the unselfish and beauti ful devotion to her loved ones. The pall bearers were as follows : Messri L. T. Hartsell, J. H. Rutledge, F. L. Smith, C. F. Ritchie, E. C. Barn hardt and D. L. Bost. The interment was made at Oakwood cemetery. Among the out-of-town people here for the funeral were : Messrs. A. u and D. C. Correll, of Spartanburg; Mr. and -Mrs. J. N. Hunter, of Char lotte, and Miss Susie Chandler, of Mebane. ROD'S VISIT.

The Chinese government appealed to Eng land not to send opium to China, as otherwise their people ould not get it." The appeal fell on deaf ears, as England was getting a tremendous revenue through this illicit traffic.
