Gorham has resigned his position as law agent for the Southern Railroad. His letter of resignation is as follows: "Charlotte, N. C. June 1, 1901. "Mr. M. H. Dooley, Chief Law gent, Southern Railway Compa ny, Washington, D. C. "Dear Sir: In view of the decis ion of the Superior Court judge in the contempt proceedings States ville, N.C., on May 27th, 1901, in the suit of B. F. Long, Administra tor' vs. North Carolina Railroad et. al., against myself and the juror, J. H, Brown, I have determined to ten der my resignation to the Southern Railway Company, and to insist up on the acceptance of same at the earliest possible moment. "While I believe that you and every other official connected with the Southern Railway Company have full confidence in my. integrity, I feel it a duty that I owe myself, as well as to the Southern Railway Company, to withdraw myself from its service. For sixteen years I have been in the company's service. A record of service so long contin ued, bespeaks some character for a man. That my superiors believe in me and have confidence in me I am sure; for there has ever been an hon est and faithful endeavor on my part to perform my duty, and it is as gratifying to me, as it must be pleasing to my superiors, to know that my record of many years ser vice tells in my favor, for all that is upright, faithful and dutiful. In withdrawal from the service, I have a record to sustain me; that record I mean to uphold and strive ever to maintain in future as I have in the past, 'so as always to be worthy of all that a good record jmplies in a man's favor."

The romance in the life of Ken tucky's governor and his -young bride, which has been whispered about at Bardstown, the home of both, but which has just become public, is also the story of the bud ding of the ambition of the young man to become'governoi- of the com monwealth. "It was many years ago." said Governor Beckham. "A party of us from Bardstown had paid a visit to the monastery at Gethsemane. A young lady in the party asked one of the monks why we could not en ter the place. I remember very dis tinctly his reply. " 'If Mr. Beckham lives to become governor and you should marry him, then I promise that you shall visit the inner part of the monastery.' "There was nothing strange about the remark, but the ambition arose in me to occupy the highest office of the State and to marry Miss Fuqua, the questioner of the monk. " Beckham was a lawyer, and soon secured his election to the legisla ture, where he was made speaker of the house. He then made the race for lieutenant governor on the tick et with William Goebel and won Goebel's assassination left him gov ernor and he was shortly afterwards elected to the office by the vote of the people. Having realized his am bition to become governor, he sought in marriage Miss Fuqua and his recent visit to the monastery was the finale to that Sunday after noon's visit and the thoughtless talk with the monk at the gate of the abbey. - Corbett to Appear BefOreKlngs.

Get Green's Prize Alma- I nac. For sale by W. F; Hall.- The Southern Railway A 20th Cen tury Road, rruit Trade Journal, New York. The Southern Railway and its broad-minded and energetic officials deserve much congratulation and praise for the improved and efficient train service they have inaugurated on the movement of their fruit and vegetable traffic from this point. It is now their regular schedule to haul perishable freight from Char leston to New York in less than 36 hours, which has already developed the approbation and hearty co-operation of the shippers in this territory. A number of growers and shippers have expressed themselves as very well satisfied with the prompt and effective manner in which the South ern Railway anticipated their needs y this rUroction, and this liberal and' progressive policy, together with the vigorous promulgation of the same by the officials of the road, is having a decided upward tendency to stimulate and renew energy in this section, encourage the growers and shippers to increase the acreage next season, with results that will be mutually beneficial to growers, shippers, consignees an the South ern Railway- The broad-minded and liberal policy thus displayed by the officials of the Southern Railway cannot be too highly praised, and presages the dawn of a progres sive era for the fruit and produce shippers in this section, and prom ises aa object lesson to other rail roads and officials, which will be worthy of emulation. The Southern Railway will have good reasons to feel proud of their officials when the object aimed at by the latter have been appreciated by the fruit and vegetable interests. The results attained are all the more commendable in view of the fact that "climatic conditions" for the past several months have tended to limit the shipments of market able truck from this section, and prove that concentrated action by those interested in the development of the raising of products is bound to succeed.

A Stubborn Bride IVidn't Want, rn Promise to Obey, In teliiug about 'Some PeoDle I Have married," in the Ladies Home Journal for June, the Rev. D. M. bteele says: Being an Episcopalian, I always uoe the formal printed ser vice oi tho prayerbook. In this the greatest stickler is 'obey.' Oae day a couple came to me, bringing as witnesses the parents of both bride and grouru.' Everything proceeded smoothly j the point 'love, hoaor and obey,' when the bride refused to say the iat. I repeated it aud waited. A-:ain she refused and I shut up UiV book. Ihey talked it over, and the more seriously they arguea and discussed the more stub ornly she infused. The parents be came angry, the groom excited and the bride hysterical. To humor her he joined in the request to have me leave it out. But 1 liked the fellow and decided that a little sternness from me in the present might be a favor to him in the future. So I told'them I had no authority to change it and would not do so. I tried to show the foolishness of her objection: 'Well, this household must have a head somewhere. I will leaye it out for her if you say it.' Theu it was his time to refuse, which he did. He gathered up his hat and started" for the door, when, presto, change! she sprang after him led him back by . the hand, looked meekly up at him and said it. "Embarrassment, said the writ er,appears to be the natural con comitant of matrimony. At least this is true in the incipient stages. Invariably, however, there is a strik ing contrast between the relative composure of the man and the wo man. Bot h are nervous, 4)ut never both at the same time. If they come a week before hand to make arrange ments she is rattled and he is coo ; while on the day of the ceremony she rises to the occasion and he sinks under it. Thus I have never seen a bride who was scared; I have never seen a groom who was not." Got His He:id Fastened in a Freezer. Richmond, Va., Dispatch, 17th. A most unusual incident- occurr d yesterday afternoon, ' when little John VVilliaras, son of Mr. Miles M.
