ohrough North and South Carolina,

Noted Along the Way.
(Editorial Correspondence.)
Birianenam, Ala., Feb. 15, 1897.
It was five years ago that the oold
man� of the RerLector washed his
hands of the print shop and hied him-
Sel{ across the, continent to the Pacific
slope to attend a meeting of the Na-
tional Editorial Association, ~There's
an old saying that lightning don't
attike twice in the same place, and the
Sold man� naturally felt that that was
the rip of iis lite. Good fortune
struck our way again, however, and
this time finds us spinning away for
Galveston to attend another meeung of
the Association, the trip bringing with
it an opportunity of visiting the extreme
southern and gulf regions of our country
Having slrendy traversed the western
middle, northern and eastern States,
nothing could be more desired than this
present trip through our own Southland,
especially the portions of it we had
never visited befove.
Nothing can add more to the pleasure
4 of a trip than good traveling ccm-
pavions, hence our route lay by Hen-
- derson to join Thad. Manning, of the
Gold Leaf, then on through the famous
county of Chatham where H. A. Lon-
_ don, of the Pittsboro Record, was added
to the party, thence on via the Seaboard
Air Line to Atlanta wher? J. p. Cald-
well, o* the Charlotte Observer, joined
us. All exceedingly clever and con-|
genial companions, as we know by past
experience, and nothing but a pleazant
| journey could be expected in such an
~agreeable party.
A TRAIN RACE.
The first incident of interess along
the route was a very exciting race be-
tween the Seaboard and Southern
trains from Raleigh to Cary. Between
these points the tracks run parallel and
races between the trains are frequent
when they leave about the same time.
Oa this occasion the Seaboard pulled
out of the depot just ahead, but had
scarcely gone a mile when the South-
evn came puffing alcngeide. Secing
his competitor creeping up on Lim, the
Seaboard engineer turew open his throt-
tle and let drive, slipping away from
the other train with apparent ease, and
getting a few hundred yards ahead
The engineer of the Southern followed:
suit and turned on more steam and for
afew miles the tilt was lively, both
rains almost flying. through space. Sud-
denty it was noticed that the rear train
began rapidly lessening the distance
berween them, a few moments later
was alongside again and shot on like an
atrow to the front. This at first seemed
o,:anaccountable to the Seaboard passen-| °
gers, thie train having distanced the
other at the outset, but this was soon
explained from the fact that the rapid
pun had put the train ahead of schedu.e
~time which compelled it to slow up
_. before reaching the point where the two
tracks crossed. near the Cary depot,
"LOOKED LIKE CAROLINA.
|. Going oat of North Carolina, through
South Carolina aud into Georgia as far
After leavirg the latter place this
morning, being then in a section new to
us we began taking observation. The
undulating country and scrubby oak
forests prevalent in this portion of
Georgia impressed us witu the striking
similarity it bore to the central aeetions
of North Carolina. On nearer and into
Alabama the country grows more hilly,
approaching almost to mountainous.
Through Georgia and Alabama we
expected to find farming preparations
for the next crop much furtser advanced
at this time of year than at home, but
the contrary is true. So far we have
seen no section that has made even as
much preparations as the farmers of
Pitt county. It may be different further
south, |
BOOMS THAT BUSTED.
This side ot Atlanta and as far as
New Orlean our trip is over the South-
Jern railway, via Anniston, Birmingham
and Meridian. One could almost tell
Anniston was reached without
told, from being able to s*e not

that the descovery of iron here a few
years since created much excitement
as well as a big boom, and many iron
furnace were put in operation Like
mest booms, especially when land
suarks get in them, this one busted and
jt came pretty near busting Anniston
with it.
At Birmingham there was a stop of
three hours which gave us a chance to
sce much of the city. Mr. London has
two kinsmen here, Messrs. Alex and
mington, N. (., and are yery prominent
lawyers. These gentlemen took our
party in hand and showed us the city,
Birmingham has about 45,000 popula-
tion, and the site of the city was all in
:| the woods twenty-five years ago, there
not being even so much as a railroad
station here. At the time the iron
industry opened up the boomers goi
hold of this town also. ~There were
430 licensed real estate agents who in
one year paid the city $43,000 taxes:
~Their operations proved a hindrance
rather than a help, and for a while
progress was checked. ~The city has
outgrown this now is ona substantial
footing. Thritt and enterprise huve
pushed to the front once more and
there are indications of much progress.
It is an all arcund pretty place with
many fine business buildings and at"
tractive residences.
THIS WAS CHEAP.
By way of a side note there were a
few other things that struck us at
Burmingham. ~The First thing we
noticed in passing fruit stands was that
tice bananas sold from d to 10 cents
per dozen. oUmph! if that was only

markable thing was a hotel bill the
