. f Concord's Depot.
Charlotte Chronicle.
The 'Concord Tribune has renewed
the list-shaking performance at the
Southern Railway Company On ac
count of the. depot conditions there.
These conditions are bad, but the
Southern has plana for Concord that
require time, but which, when con-
f"nted,, may repay.tbe people of
that 4own for waiting, It ia prob-
able that in thesonrse of a year or
so, Uoncord will have a fine new de
pot at a location a mile north of the
present site. The present depot area
will be converted into a freight hand
ling district. From the new location
a double track, to be used exclusively
for passenger service, will be built in
a direct line to a "point near Harris
burg At present the curve between
these two points is about like the lot-
ter v cnt half in two. The new pas-
senger line would lake out this curve,
eliminate troublesome grades and save
schedule time,' besides - giving . the
Southern greatly needed extra freight
facilities. We believe it ia the hold
ing in hand of these plana that is de
laying the depot question at Concord.
The new depot would be as close to
the town as the' old one, and would
be a good thing in the measure of new
development it would create.
Will Examine Cows for Tuberculosis.
Dr Spencer will commence testing
much cows in this community for tu
berculosis about the middle of next
month. Several eases of tuberculosis
have' been found in this section and,
quits a number, especially those feed
ing babies on cow's milk, ara desirous
ot, having their cows tested and take
no chances of communicating thia dis
ease ta the 'infants. The tuberculin
test requires about two days and 88
per cent, of infected cattle will react.

Train Oraahsa Throngs Barmiag
. Traatla, Killing Two EngUaan aai
. a riramas.
Charlotta Observer, 29th.
Kewa of a headlong plunge of a
doable-header Seaboard freight train
through a burning trestle between
Boetie and Ellen boro yesterday after
noon at 5 o'eloek reached Charlotte
shortly after the occurrence. Three
men, all white, wre killed. They
were Engineer R. M. Green, of Mon
roe, Engineer J. M. Lindsey, of Cher
ryville, and Fireman Roy Dooley, of
Monroe. Those seriously injured were
Early Lewis, colored, a fireman from
Monroe, and Lon Neely, colored, a
brakeman.
Capt. Frank Howell of Charlotte,
was conductor of the tarin, which
consisted of twenty-nine cars loaded
with Clinchfleld coal destined for va
rious points in this section and to the
south. The train was drawn by two
engines, owing to its weight. The
fact that the trestle was burning was
not discovered until too late to halt
before reaching it. Both engines and
fifteen of the cars crashed through
the fire-eaten woodwork to the stream
below, Ave cars piling up on the two
engines. Engineer Green's body was
extricated at once. A' wrecking train
was started from Monroe for the scene
of the tragedy as soon as tidings of
it reached thai place.
The scene of the accident was Wat
kins trestle, two miles east of Bostic.
No other members of the crew except
those specified were injured.
Stole a Cow.
Some one stole a cow belonging to
Bush Cannon, who lives on Mr. B. V.
Caldwell s place, in No. 2 township,
last Thursday night. Cannon is blind
and the eow was given to him by Mr.
CaldwelL The animal waa traced to
Kannapolia, where it was first sold to
Mr. (J. U. Alexander for am - Mr.
-AteVatidrfr wild it. In Mr J H Reader
for $15, who later sold her to Mrs.
Measamer for $20. Turner Jbrd,
colored, has been arrested for the
theft but upon investigation no evi
dence was found against him and he
was released. No further arrests have
yet been made.
Oar Should Stop One Minute on the
Square.
We nave heard many people say
thai the street car should stop at
least 'one minute on the public square
in each direction. People who do not
want to stand on -the street in the hot
sun waiting for the ear etep in to one
of the stores nearby to wait. When
the car comes it barely stops at all.
and it is impossible for them to reach
it in time to take it.

BASEBALL THTJESD AT.
Plana for Organising the Five Local
Tsaaa Into a City Baseball League
Being Considered.
There will be a ball rame between
Davidson and Concord Thursday. The
locals are working hard and expect to
put np their best game against the
Davidsonians.
Plana are on foot for the organiza
tion of a city baseball league between
teams representing Concord, Locke
mill, Gibson mill, Brown mill and
Young-Hartsell mill. Nothing definite
has yet been determined upon but it
to be hoped that the man seers and
those interested in the various teams
will get together and form an organi
sation. The league oculd be controlled
by the baseball laws now governing
such organizations, the standing of
clubs could be kept in an official rec
ord and it would no doubt create no
little local pride and at the same time
furnish pleasing amusement for the
ungry fans in Concord and vicinity.
Another Barn Burned.
A barn on Mr. Frank E. White's
place, in No. 10 township, occupied
by Jim Howell, colored, was de
stroyed by Are last Saturday night
about 11 o clock. It is evident that
the barn was set on fire. A good mule,
valued at $125, was burned to death.
and a eow so badlv burned that she
will die. A lot of provender, corn,
was also burned. A wagon and
buggy were saved. Mr. R. E. Newell,
who lives near, heard some one walk
ing fast through his yard, and getting
up to see who it was, discovered the
tire and gave the alarm. He was not
able to identify the man or see wheth
er he was blaek or white. The loss is
about $200, with no insurance.
Miss Jennie Joyner, of No. 10
township and Mr. Arthur Sides, of
Mebane, were married yestrday morn
ing at 10 o'clock at the home of Rev.

They left thia morning for Mebane,
