UKES-TO-COAST HOAOPROJECTED Sale of Seaboard Means En trance of Chesapeake & Ohio Into South Atlantic Region. RICHMOND, VA, June 10—The Carolina. Clinchfield and Ohio railroad has secured an amendment to its char ter from the Virginia corporation com mission authorizing the road to in crease its capital stock from $30,000,- 000 to $40,000,000. This, it is declared, is for the purpose of further perfect ing plans to get connection with the Chesapeake and Ohio system. In railway circles here it is believed that the sale of 210.000 shares of Sea board Air Dine stock by the Cumber land corporation and their acquisition by a new syndicate which has come into control of this road Is nothing more than a plan on the part of the Chesapeake and Ohio to eventually take over the Carolina. Clinchfield and Ohio, which is owned by the Clinch field Corporation. Ry selling out its Seaboard holdings, the Cumberland Corporation can now carry out its extension plans, irrespec tive of Seaboard influence, it is be lieved. These plans call for an exten sion from Dante, the northern termi nus of the C„ C. and 0., to Elkhorn City, Ky„ the southern terminus of the Big Sandy division of the Chesa peake and Ohio. Contract for this work was let several weeks ago. With the completion of this connect ing link a distance of 40 miles, within the next year or two. it is believed that the way will have been sufficiently cleared for the Chesapeake and Ohio to assume active charge of the Caro lina, Clinchfleld and Ohio, whose south ern terminus is Spartanburg, S. f Behind this project lies the dream of Edwin Hawley for the C. and O. and its allied branches in the middle West to get a direct line from the Great Dakes ’o the South Atlantic seaboard, pre liminary to the opening of the Panama canal in 1915.

I'hey dashed under automobiles and out the other side, spun between trolley cars and express wagons, sought out every mud puddle in the gutters, and then the nearest dust heap. Owners forgot their dignity and went after them. Fat men stretched their short legs in the chase, bent painfully over their lids when they had over taken them, and used words not in the catechism when the prey suddenly evaded their grasp and started oft aga in. Dust Baffles Pursuers. Added to the loss of hats was the dust, which tilled the eyes of pursuers. Half of Peachtree was rubbing its op tics with a knuckle, or imploring a friend to play oculist, And worse than either was the shower of badinage which went up from the sidewalk, from friends who clung to their own top-pieces and spent half the forenoon cheering the hat-chasers and placing bets on the result.

OHIO, June 10.—An at « tempt was made here last night to lynch Organizer O’Conner, of the In dustrial Workers of the World. He was rescued from a mob by officers. O'Conner was’making a speech on a street corner. The crowd stood for his ridicule of the law, his admission that he would rob a bank if he could get away with It. but when he charged that Christ was "simply a hobo car penter" and denounced all ministers and priests and those who pay homin', to them as dupes or worse, there wei cries of "String him up!” "Hang him The officers rushed O’Conner throuy the crowd and upstairs into a buildin.r holding back the crowd with sticks. Several of the mob were Injured bv the policemen's clubs. A FAILURE We told R A. Crothers. editor and pro prietor of The San Francisco Bulletin, that to convince him Bright's Disease and Diabetes are curable if he would send us a ease we would attempt a demonstra tion. The result was that we were put itt touch with a young physician who had Diabetes. He was so incredulous at first that be would not take the treatment, although there was no charge. When his case became extreme and he was in bed in a dark room he consented Within four months from the date that Fulton's Diabetic Compound was sent him he called at our office in person to express his gratification and asked what we ex pected him to do. We replied that all we asked of him was to call on Editor Crothers of the Bulletin and declare the resuits. He did so. But it seems the disease was not entirely eliminated, sot about three years thereafter his death was reported. We do not make strong claims in young cases and were prepared for failure. But who can measure the value of those three years added to the patient’s life’.' Who will say it was not worth while? If middle-aged or over we look for per manence in many cases. (There have been a number who have been cured over ten years). Fulton's Diabetic Compound can be had at Frank Edmondson & Bro., 14 S. Broad and 10 N. Pryor streets.
