To Increase Capital.
There was a meeting of the Directors
of Orr Cotton Mills on the 30th of De
cember just past and it was unanimous
ly decided to increase t ho pia nt by 90,000
Spindles and 750 Looma for the manu
facture of liner gooda. A meeting of
the stockholders to indorse the action
of the Directors in this matter has been
fixed for Wednesday, 28th inst., at 12
o'clock. Notice of the time, place and
pnrpose of such meeting is published
elsewhere in this issue. Tho proponed
increase amounts in ligures to $ 100,000,
and $200,000 of this has already been
subscribed. Stockholders of record
will be given the preference in taking
such stock in proportion to the amount
of stock they own in the mill as it now
stands. The increase will bringthe
capital stock np to $800,000, This
Company has ample land for the addi
tion, also machinery, with houses for
same, for Power complete, and most of
the warehouses and some of the tene
ments. The mill is thoroughly organ
ized and its brands fairly well intro
duced. Thone are items showing an
advantage over new millsto be started
and put on a paying basis. Judged
from the success of cotton mills in this
section, the opportunity to invent in
thia increase offers as safe and remu
nerative investment UH can be found.
After the Railroad.
Mayor Sullivan and City Attorney J.
K. Hood, with the assistance of Archie
Linley, a competent stenographer,
spent several hours yesterday in near
ing sworn statements made by mer
chants of the city as to the inefficient
service of the Blue Ridge Railroad, both
as to freight and passenger business.
This investigation, which will be con
tinued to-day, beginning at ll o'clock,
is the result of a petition to the City
Council, signed by a number of mer
chants and citizens and presented some
weeks ago. Upon hearing the peti
tion, which asked that the Council take
steps to force relief, the Council set
aside $500 to be UBed in the prosecution
of the case, if so much was found ne
cessary, and appointed the Mayor and
City Attorney to take testimony and re
port back to Council. The outcome of
this investigation cannot be forecasted.
The short-comings of the rondare being
pretty freely ventilated, but some of
tlx* statements goto show that there
hun been Rome improvement in the
s* i vice within the pant few mouths.
The New Year.
Rosy with freshness tho year lOO.'i
stands facing eveiy one of UH. Each
individual might well ask himself the
Question, What do I intend to do? and
then do some hard thinking. The bf>5
days of the year 1002, with all of their
opportunities, are gone and forever;
but the new year dawns upon a most
wonderful age of development in in
tillect. scienco and art. An age which
is the heritage of centuries upon cen
turies and ottering opportunities our
ancestor* never dreamed of. The year
100'J ia scarcely worth a thought out
side of tho lessons it leaves for our
protit in future. It contains some his
tory, some experience, but it is now a
memory only. Tho new year is before
us. Whnt we need ia grit and dotei
mination to accomplish something that
will lilt us from among the common
heard and place un in the front ranks.
There must bo planning and looking
abend. Wo muststop driftiug. There
will he rough roads for muny of UH to
travel in 100.1. Resolutions tumlo on
New Year's Day are no better than
those made ab any other time. What
we need is grit of thu sticking quality.
Some fighting will have to be done and
we'll need it badly. Most of ?ll, we
will have to fight self. We will make
mistakes and get the blues and become
discouraged, nut we eau win. The
world is a friend to the man who trien.
Self munt be made subordinate to busi
ness methods, then aim high and wade
in, keeping eternally at it. We must
think more, not alone of self but ahout
the sorrows of other people. We must
study the waste in our ?VOH in the past
years and protit by the facta. We
mnst go to Church oftener. Church
going is a good thiner even if we are in
no way religious. We get idean, hear
some windom and meet people whom
it is good for us to know. Succenncan
not be accomplished without health.
We must live simply, sidestepping
those things which have wrecked
others. A good many times we were
convivial with so-oalled friends when
we should have boen at home. It wor
ried the wife or tho mother and made
ns see blue devils nnd unfitted us for
business. Was this wine? The wine
repeat few mistakes after they lind
they were mistakes. We nhould read
more good books. It is better to
develop the intellect by rending than
to have an education that is made up
of experiences dear bought and sail.
This world has reached a point of won
derful development. The sun has
never before shown upon such an heir
itage as tho New Year brings to us.
We cannot afford to be sleepers. Let
?B apply business rules to our personal
lives, lift up our heads nnd climb.

I City Council Favors Permanent Work.
Tho City Council, at tho regular
monthly meeting held hist night,
unanimously decided to indorse the
submitting to the freeholders of the
city a petition nuking that au election
be held on the question of issuing
bonds of ?25,000 for the purpose of
of paving the Court House Square and
so much of the main thoroughfares
leading from the Square as can be
paid for with the proceeds arising from
the Hale of these bonds.
The Council was a unit in the mat
ter. The Mayor and every Alderman,
and all were present, were of opinion
that the people would not be satisfied
with any temporary work, bot expect
ed and were willing to pay for stieet
improvements that would be perma
nent.
A resolution was adopted authorizing
the drawing up of the petition, which
is to be circulated by tue policemen.
Aldermen Ligon, Ilolleman and Uris
I Rey were made a committee to inquire,
in the meantime, thc relative cost of
Belgian blocks and vetritied brick.
Mayor Sullivan will act with this com
I mittee. The matter of annulling the
$50,000 of Black Diamond Railroad
bonds was also placed in the hands ol
j this committee with instructions to
take such steps us may seem best to
them, under the advice of the city at
torney.
The impression prevailed in tho
Council meeting that there would be
no trouble in annulling these bonds.
I Tho city attorney, who was present,
was also of this opinion, remarking as
these bonds were never issued and no
rights to anyone having accrued under
them, (as no part of the consideration
of their authorization ba i been per
formed) tho repeal of the legislative
enactment authorizing the election,
together with all ordinances bearing
upon the subject, would effectually re
lieve the city of any obligation under
the builds, it' any now exists.
A number of other matters of minor
importance were considered by Coun
cil, such ns petitions for water mains,
opening of a street through ar part of
the premises of Mr. J. F. Clinkscales',
und the adoption of an ordinance regu
lating the Hushing of sewers.

KAUSDALK AND LA HOON.
On Christmas Eve, at the beautiful
country residence of Mrs. Van I.aboon,
in Brushy Creek Township, a beautiful
wedding took place. Tho day was
cold mid the wind sharp and cutting,
but within a warm lire burned and
around stood many invited guests. At
H o'clock p. m. tho organ pealed forth
the wedding march, Miss Marion Pick
ens directing. In a few minutes Mr.
.lohn C. Rugsdalo and Miss Josie La
boon Rtood under a beautiful arch of
luce aud evergreens. Rev. D. W.
Iiiott? assisted by Rev. Loudermilk,
performed the ceremony. Then came
the supper and a supper sura enough it
was. i ou may talk about your French
cooks, ?tc, but thu supper at Mr. Mat
tison"? and the one at Mrs. Laboon's
could not be surpassed by any kind of
a cook. A very large crowd waa pres
ent to enjoy the pleasuie of the occa
sion. A real old time country weddiug
with tho genuine old time hospitality
isa real treat, and ono who bas the
pleasure of attending one may count
himself fortunato indeed.
