'. From a 'phone conversation this
mornim? over the wires of the Con
cord Telephone Co., W-twe i' Mr.
J. A. ITcAu' y, a ruUiiner.l n.orch
ant and bu. r-a man of Mount C.l
'. and a i j-resentative of The
Tisane it wa learned that the Nor
folk Southern ia going forward with
the work of extending its line on to
Concord. V - "... - .,
Tbe ' road haa a surveying corps
at ' work from Troy toward Albe
mark. The crew started Monday
from a point about a mile from Troy
' and ia now surveying in what ia
' Vnown as the ride of Uwharrie
.'' mountain. The lino bow being sur
veyed will eroaa the river at Stokes
ferry. On account of the fact that
1 4ha surveyors started work from a
. point about a mile from .Troy there
is 'much speculation as to where tbe
' lepot will be located. should this line
1 be adopted. ' ... v. -'
As soon as this route is surveyed a
survey will be made from Mount Gil
ead to Albemarle. . The route, of this
survey will likely go oat from Mount
Gilead And run along the course of
- the river, going probably by Living
ston's old mill and crossing the river
- at Swift Island. " The route from
- Troy to Albemarle will be bout 20
miles and the route from Mount Gil-
" ad to Albemarle about 16 miles.
' , Mr. McAuley was asked if the cit-
; izens of Mount Gilead were making
-rry determined effort, to get the
' road to go out from there." 'We are
very anxious, for the rofjA and, have
been Blithe time but are not making
any effort now because we- do" not.
think.it necessary,'? he replied.- Mr.
: McAuley added that he was praqti
: cally-certain that the road would go
. out from Mount Gilead. ; ' He. stated
that lie based this opinion, on infor
mation of , private nature he had.

v. The Kilties last Night
, Kilties band performed at the op-
era house last night to the largest
crowd of the season. Their perform
ance was excellent and the large au
dience - showed , its appreciation - by
.' demanding -encore after encore.
" Prom - the. hieh class entertainment
. here last night the Kilties gave such
" a classy performance ; that . many
of the audience decided that they
' were a superior organization to
certain band made famous in a sea
- son's song hit and to them rightly
belonged the title, "the best band
in' the land." - The programme was
made off of selections from compos
ers of high standing and "well known
-reputations, such as Wagner, Puccini
"and Rossini. The two Wagnerian se
lections, ' Overture" from William
. Tell and the ''Prelude' to third act
from Leher-j-rin, were well rendered
and were perhaps the best numbers
on the programme. The piccolo solo
by Master Willie Lawrence elecited
V kigh praise and the juvenile musician
, was a decided favorite, especially so
with' the feminine element present.
.The Kilties are all to the good from

i Durham, Jan. ' 22. Bishop 'John

Carlisle Kilgo, of this eity, is blamed
for the blocking of a great revival
meeting which was to have begun at
the local home of the Young Men's
Christian ; Association, r. For u weeks
the ministerial association of the city
composed of all the' ministers of the
city; "have been planning for a big
meeting to be held at the X. M. C.
Air Mr.; D.: H.; Wilcox, secretary of
tbe local association, says that he has
bee'n -hopln!
for the time-hen IheiSwiteerlandV and onesday at dinner
meeting could be held,' and says that
he thinks the .time is now ripe for
the meeting to be held, and that he
is certain that a great amount of
good could be -done among the young
men of the, city at this time. At the
meeting' of ; the Ministerial; Associa
tion last Monday, plans for the be
ginning of the meeting were perfect
ed, and all was in readiness for the
star which was to have- come within
the next few days. However, on last
Thursday afternoon Bishop .Kilgo
held a meetine at his home on Trin
ity- Campus of all the Methodist min
isters ,m the, city. At that tune be
offered a resolution condemning the
local'V M. C. A. because of; the fact
that it had in its lobbies several pool
tables, and ''other evils."' Several
of the preachers' stood with the bish
op and some would not; exactly agree
"with him. ! The resolution was chang
ed so that it did not "eondemn the
local , association, but Vat , the ; same
time condemning the poo) tables, and
the "other vita,'';.'. The resolution jin
its amended ' form was Dassed, slid
enough" of the Methodist miniswrs
went over to the side .of the. bishop
as to block the meeting. ;; As it stands
now it " is highly probable - that jhe
meetine will not be held, or at least
at the present time. ' Practically Ibv

Washington, Jan. 22. There is
nothing at the present time to indi
cate that a general sold wave will

-"- Taft TJneasy as to South.
Washington, Jan. 22. The fight on
Mr. Taft by anti-Taft men of the Re
publican party is demoralising tbe
Taft organisation in the South. Anti
Taft literature has created the im
pression 'that Taft cannot be elected
if nominated, and the Southern Re
publican leaders "want to get on the
band wagon of Colonel Roosevelt, or
some other promising racer.
It ia predicted that the Republi
can Southern machine will be broken
inside of 10 dsys by Cecil Lyon, na
tional - committeeman 'from - Texas,
coming.out, for Roosevelt. Being a
power among the Republicans of tbe
South, Mr. Lyon will carry many oth
er leaders with him. .'t'f
Polls taken all over the country in
dicate that tbe masses are net in
favor of Mr. Taft, the Progressives
say, and will not enthuse for him. '
