The work of re pairing the road-bed of the electric atreet railway, now being done on the Hillsboro street line, is a great im provement over the old method. Iu the o vet Ilea d trolley system as used here and elsewhere the electric cur reut is carried from its source at the dynamo along the heavy feed-wire beside the street and from this feed wire it is conducted to the trolley wire over the track at frequent intervals. The moving car takes the current by contact of the spring pole, and leads it by concealed wires to the motors un derneath where its enargy is utilized in driving the car along. After pass ing through the motor the current is led through the wheels to the rails and thence along th rails back to its source at the dynamo. In this way the electric current makes a complete circuit, without which it could do no work. It is just here that a great waste of energy may take place and may prove an important factor in the success or failure of the plant. As commonly built the ends of the rails are connected by "fish-plates" which serve to hold them together in a rigid line. In addition to the fish plates there are "bond-wires," usu ally of heavy galvanized iron, which connect the ends of the rails and are intended to convey the current from rail to rail on its return circuit and to its source. Such bond-wires frequently break, or rust off and the fish-plates must be loose enough to allow for ex pansion and contraction and in this way the return current is greatly hin dered, to say nothing of the thick ac cumulation of rust at each joint. Any such interference in the free passage of electricity puts into the line more or less of "resistance" and resistance means, practically, that more power must be used to overcome it, without an increased output of useful work. Such a condition makes it necessary to have more coal and increases other ex penses in proportion and hence a loss to the system. The improvement mentioned con sists in "bonding" the ends of the rails with heavy copper wires and iu burying a heavy wire of the same ma terial alongside each rail. At every joint of the rails.the buried wire is securely soldered to the bond wires and thus makes the most perfect con nection possible. In this way a heavy loss of initial energy is prevented and must result in a great saving to the company. Of course such an arrange ment is costly in material and labor but it is the best way. T. C. H. The Confederate Monument. In reply to letters being received by the president of the ladies' monu ment association, it is deemed neces sary to say that not enough money has been raised by about $8,000 for the Confederate monument, and as no idea of erecting a monument by the people of the state at large in capitol square had ever been thought of until the ladies organized their association, it is hoped they will not be thwarted in their efforts by so many other pro jects, but that all will - unite to aid in the erection of this Confederate inouiN ment until completed, when they will willingly do their part to perpetuate the deeds of individual great men. The Confederate monument will be erected in memory of every Confederate sol dier from North Carolina. Several thousand dollars could have been quickly raised and was offered if the names of private parties were allowed to be inscribed on the monument, but as so many of the bravest men of the Confederacy have never been able to raise a hundred dollars since their homes and fortunes were lost, we did not deem it expedient, but believe that "justice should be done." ' The Ladies' Monument Association. The republican state convention is oalled to meet at Raleigh August 30. A. P. Duucan, of Stokes county, was married October 15th, 1892. ; His wife gave birth to twins July 7th, 1893, and again gave birth to twins July 6th, making four within twelve months.
