tric light privileges, Arc Mr RT Gray,
the commissioner appointed, then
read some notice and made a state
went. He read a new decree which
as signed last Thursday by judge
8eymour of the U. 8. court, which
stated that unless an "upset" bid of
$25,000 was made today and a certi
fied check for that amount payable
to the Mercantile trust and deposit
company of Baltimore (tbe holder of
the mortgage) was given by 8 o'clock
today, then tbe sale most be postpon
ed nntll May 2. Mr Stronach then
asked for a bidder in the sum of $25,-
000, as a starter. There was no bid
and so he declared the sale postponed
until May 2.
Tbe road is bonded for $125,000. Mr
Tome of Baltimore, who hd a repre
sentative here holds $39,000 of the
bonds. Mr George was interviewed
after the sale He said that efforts
are now being made and with some
prospect of success, by which a reor
ganization of the old company may
be effected. The failure to sell today
he said further was part of this plan
He thinks something will be done
within in ten days. during which time
he will g to Schenectady,. NY. It
is now simply a question of whether
the ;ilans can be carried out. Mr R T
Gray says the postponement is to al
low some arrangements to be perfect
ed He says also that the outlook for
the purchase and rexerquipment of
the road is good. This is really en
couragiag news. The people here are
greatly desirous of seeing the line
again in operation. It is a great de
veloper of tbe suburD. and Kaieign s
growth for two years has been largely
suburban. Hot only ought tne roaa
to be in operation before the warm
weather sets in. but the equipment
ought to be good. The old line was
never equipped or maintained like the
lines at Wilmington or Charlotte or
Winston. A well managed and thor
ougbly equipped road will certainly
pay here. There can also be made
great improvements in the selection
of new territory for the lines to tra
verse.

Our Platform.
We sell dry goods, notions, shoes, hats,
ladies' and gents' furnishings. We want
trade, the great trade of the present an4
still greater trade of the future. Oar aim is
to serve you acceptably, that we mav merit
your permanent custom. We see that our
quarters are too small; we are pressed for
the want of room; we must add to our stor
age capa-ity; our increasing patronage de
mand it. Rock is the foundation principle
on wh'ch we btiild We sell good goods and
guarantee every time, and no trade is com
plete until the customer is satisfied.
This week we open a line of straw hats,
every one a bargain, approved new ami
nobby style.
Our shoe department is a shoe store in
itself. Good shoes at popular prices always
sell, and we have them at all times.
Just now gentV furnishings is attracting
public attention. Low prices rule, and
shirts, collars, cuffs and knit underwear
seem to have the run. This is due largely
to extra values. We retail a fine line of
gents' scarfs, ties and bows at wholesale
prices. Hemstitched, tape bordered hand
kerchiefs at 5c. The wonder is how we do
it. See the quality. The people will not be
deceived by gloss, nor are they entrapped by
worthless articles at any price Good goods
satisfies, that is the kind we have but can
not keep.
