Mr. Seborn Perry, who was so badly inuired in an accident caused by the breaking' his engine on edncsday night near Lynchburg, died last night about nine o'clock in the hospital at Lynchburg. All that medical skill could do was done for him but without avail. I lis spinal cord was broken and the lniurie he received would have caused sudden death to a man of averagt constitution. At the time of h death his wife, mother and sister and otiher relatives were with him. The body arrived here this morn inn at 7 45 "" 'rain No. and vy;;- met by a number of our citi zens. There is universal sympa tic expressed for the relatives on account ol this sad bereavement The funeral services will be held in Washington Street Meth odist church Sunday afternoon at three o'clock, conducted by Rev J. K. Thompson, pastor. A dele nation of the lirotherhood of the Locomotive Kni'ineers will be present and conduct their usiia service. Seborn Peri v was born in High I ' i . 1 1 1 . January I-l- 1K74. and -'cut hi- boyhood day- here, lie was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Se- li i 11 l'env. one of the oldest and most prominent families in this section. Mr. I'errv having been one ol the early settlers of High Point, lie was married in March. I (XXi, to Miss I'earl I'itts. daugh ter of Mr. and Mrs. E. Pitt, of High Point. To them were born two children, who. together with their mother, survive him. When (piite a hov "Sebe" I'er rv. as he was familiarly called by his friends, took a position with the Southern Railway as fireman and although his work was hard for one of his age he stuck to it and so well did he do his work that he commanded the attention of file railway officials before he had been with them but a few months. It was his ambition to become an engineer and accord ing to the records of the company, he has for several years been one of the best they ever had. If there was any special train to go out or an important trip to be made, Mr. Perry was among the few en gineers whom they would choose to run the engine. For the past few years he has been so closely confined to his work that his friends in High Point have seen very little of him, but whenever he came home he was given a heartv welcome by all because we do not believe that anybody ever knew "Sebe" Perry well without likmu him. I Ins is the record he leaves behind, bot.li with his friends here and among his railroad companions. He was a kind, big hearted boy as we knew him and he grew in these characteristics when he became a man. As a husband and fat'her he displayed a devotion which was beautiful and worthy of emulation. To 1)1 i s loving wife, children, devoted mother and sisters and numerous relatives in this com munity the Enterprise joins in ex tending sincere sympathy. The remains are at the home of Mrs. S. Perry on Washington street, where there have been many callers during the day. A TRIBUTE. Mr. Perry is one of the best liked engineers running out of Spencer and of all the hundreds of railroaders on the various di visions out of Salisbury and Spencer none is better known than he; in the prime of life his domestic life since he was mar ried a few years ago has been ex ceptionally felicitious. His wife and little child were stunned by the news of the accident. The hosts of friends of the splen did Seborn Perry are hoping for a turn of the tide in his favor. Sal isbury Post. MARK OF RESPECT TO ENGINEER PERRY The engine on train No. 36" on the Southern which was often in charge of Engineer Seborn Perry, was draped in mourning this af ternoon as a mark of respect to the dead engineer. IMPORTANT MEETING. There will be an important meeting of citizens at the Manu facturers' Club 1 Ortbtye'ttkh . at 7.30 - o'clock for "the purpose- of taking action in regard to another faT Industry fc--- BIG PLANS AHEAD PREPARING FOR BIG. PROVEMENTS. IM- The Enterprise has been in touch for some tiniie with the plans laid out by Superintendent Walton, of the Southern Railway Company, and Mayor Tate for the improvements at the Main street crossing, and in the yards. We do not desire to anticipate them too fully, as there may be some change in their plans, but we think that it ought to be known that w ithin the next thirty days work will begin at the Main street crossing. Fifteen foot board walks will be put down for the sidewalks; in fact, the tim ber for that purpose is already here. The middle of the track will be made solid and so arrang ed that the water will not stand between the tracks. The track w hich is so close to the W achov ia sidewalk will be taken up entire ly, giving more room for the sine!, which is to he run through next to Mrs. Perry's property After this work ha- been done, some time later in the year the railway company, city authorities and the C ivic League will take up the work of beautifying the yards. Plans for this work are being dis cussed now by all concerned. This is a work which the Enter prise has frequently brought be fore the authorities and we be lieve with the joint co-operation of these authorities that by next spring all the cuts and railroad banks will be beautified with turf ing and grass plots and will be the most attractive along the line of the Southern.

(we quote with permis-i f Mr Arinlield) he says : "I am not insensible to the fact that impressions hardly compli mentary to the late management have been existent in the minds of t'he laity here. iln nit, for some time past in fact, ever since li qtiidatiou was begun, that 'ab straction of funds' ,n n, , scctll too serious a topic for earnest conversation ; bill. after the searching investigation which ha occtipicd me five months n would seem as it" that subject should, with good reasons, he abandoned now and for all time. That vour accounting method- have been inadequate and much to blame for the condition of v.uir accounts, is patent, but I fail ! find anv evi dence of the illegal abstraction of lunds. however small tl amount."
