Railroad Troubles.
The Charlotte KTews Bays:' ; ' '.
Pushing through snow banks is not
the least of the difficulties encounter
ed by railroad trains these days, and
when one realizes the many obstacles
that the engineers and trainnen have
to overcome, it is no surprise that the
trains are out of .time, ice and snow
elogupthe trucks and brake appa
rat us, the hot water pipes freeze, the
rails are brittle and iron couplings
are liable to snap at any moment. In
spite of all these drawbacks, the
trains would be able to make much
better time, except for one circum
stance, more trifling in its nature, yet
one that causes more delay than any,
thing else. The water tanks all along
the line are frozen When an engine
slows up to get a supply ot water, the
firemen and train hands hare to go
to work thawing out the tank hose,
and then 'digging ice away "from
around it. j
The superintendent of the Eastern
asylum at Goldsboro states that for

AttorneyjGeaeral Davidson and Maj .
Finger with deep regret, .and all
wish them the choicest 'blessings in
their future course through life. The
plaudit of "well done, good and faith'
ful servants," will follow them, :
Let there be an organized effort to
relieve the poor and suffering four
