It is proposed to furnish the electric power to operate local manu facturing plants to be established there, and also to furnish power to mills and factories in Concord, Albenfarle, Charlotte, Mt. Pleas ant and other towns. , It is IS miles from . Concord., 24 from Charlotte, 18 -from - Albemarle and 10 from Mt. rieasant. Dr. Blair will in a few days go to Smith's Ford with a civil en gineer, who will at once make" a survey of the place.

M. West. ' The ceremony was preformed at the home of the bride, which was beautifully decorated for the occasion. The spacious halls -were . artistically decorated in the colors, of pink and white, while the parlor was resplendent in green and white with ferns and potted plants to form the backeround in front of which the bride and groom stood while the ceremony was being preformed. Exactly at the ap pointed hour , the bridal party entered the parlor to the strains of Mendelsohn's 'Wedding March'. Which was skillfully rendered by Mrs. Loy Thomp son. The first to enter was the groom with his best man, Mr. Walter West, of Rutherford Col lege. Then . came the lovely bnde on tne arm of her brother, Professor Loy D. Thompson, of Rutherford College, who gave her away.' : The ceremony was performed in an impressive man ner by Rev. Joseph E. West, of Rutherford College, father of the groom, ably assisted by Rev. E.

" The bride was attired in a lovely creation of white crepe de chine over silk and a" bridal veil caught up with crange blossoms, and carried American Beauties, while the groom wore the conventional black. "Immediately after the cere mony the btidal party repaired to the dining room where light refreshments were served. The happy young couple were the recipients of many handsome presents. Mrs. West is the beautiful and accomplished daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W.' C. Thompson, and is loved by - all who knowher for her for her many traits of kindness and sweet disposition. Mr. West is the popular secretary and treas urer of the firm of Thompson- Pezram Company. He is too well known for f uther comment.

The building will be fitted up with all the modern equipments of anup-to-date hos pital.

Tbe old Norfolk courthouse, is one ot tne most picturesque old buildings of tbe State. Built along the colonial . lines of ar chitecture, the court house stands as one of the landmarks of the early days. This picture shows the old Monitor Canomcus, one of the famous old ' Union gun boats used during the Civil War. Dis abled and out. of commission the : Navy Department had de cided to have her destroyed, but by a recent 4 decision?1 the old ship will be repaired and brought down to tbe exposition 'where she will make an interesting ex hibit. -. .The Canoe Trail at tbe James town .Exposition will wind for more than two miles through the prettiest part ot the grounds,' af fording the lovers of .this spoit ample Opportunity to enjoy them selves' to the full, while at the exposition. - , Four companies of armed and uni formed Confederate veterans marched through the streets of Washington Tuesday, permission to do so being grantea themby District Commis sioner West.

Huggins; who has for several years past been prin4 cioal of the VPresbytenal .high scbool at Bethany, has decided to accept a position in tbe new high school to be established by the King's Mountain and Sandy Run Baptist association eight miles west of Shelby, Ni C, Tbe building" for . the prH posed high scbool has not yet been completed, but it is well under -av anH will be ready for the opeuinV of the next yearj The trustees of the . Bethany school have not yet decided up on a successor for Mr. Huggins, but are canvassing the situation as carefully as possible. Mr. "J. H. Youngblood of BlaiTSville, was in Yorkville yes terday and reported heavy wash ing rains throughout bis neigh borhood on Friday and Saturday j He said that the rain was heayy from Blairsville to Yorkville, es pecially on Saturday. There was some hail also, but no dau)4 age of any consequence." The heaviest damage was because of tbe washing of the land, there being great slews through some Tjf the fields along the road, par4 ticularly fields belonging to Ji M. Brice and A. W. McFarlandi The Gaffney baseball "fans'1 are discussing the organization of a league, composed of Gaff ney, (iastonia, Rock Hill, York; ville, Shelby and King's Moun tain. The arrangement is ' con sidered to be practicable for rea son of the proximity of the towns named and tbe convenience of the schedules, It is proposed that-the salary limit be fixed at a figure that will not involve ex pense greater than the towns can bear. Judge Pritcbard, of the United States circuit court, has granted the praver of the Carolina and j North-Western railroad asking for a temporary restraining order against the corporation commis sion and attorney general of North Carolina as to the enforce ment of the North Carolina rate law. The order was served on the state officials on last Satur day. Tbe hearing is to be had at Asheville on June 27, and similar complaints by the South ern, Seaboard Air Line and Atlantic Coast Line railroads are to be held at the same time. AH the railroads complain that the rates fixed by the North Carolina law are ruinous and that they will not admit of suf ficient revenue to pay fixed charges. The town council has decidfjH to suomit to toe question .as to whether . . they are willing to exempt new manufacturing en terprises', having a pay roll of as much as $50 a week, from mun icipal taxation for a period of five years. ' Of course, it is , un derstood that the power to make such an exemption ' rests only with voters of the municipality. Tbe object is to encourage the establishment of manufacturing enterprises .that would not be es tablished otherwise. All kinds of manufacturing enterprises are to be included in tbe proposed exemption; but it is probable that the principal beneficiaries will be cotton mills. THE CONFEDERATE.
