It in reported that the Coast Line will, at an early date, begin the construction of a new track near this town, leading out from the curve near the section house an 1 striking the road again at the curve near Mrs. Heath's. This uew track will serve to straighten the road and, by pass ing to the rear of the Cotton Mills, will eliminateobjectionable grades and crossings. Moreover, it will be outside the town limits and will, consequently, escape all local legislation. We understand that this new track will be used altogether by the fast freights, express and passenger trains, while the local trains will continue to pass over the present track, leading bv the Lumber Mills and Cotton Mills. This new track will constitute quite au improvement in the ser vice, from the standpoint of a railroad man. THE HERALDS HONOR ROLL.
