Trouble is now on in the Courts between the Town of Conway and the Atlantic Coast. There is an ordinance of the town providing a fine of not less than $1 00 or more than $5 00 for stopping a train on the public street longer than oik* minute. It seems that the Railroad wanted to contest this ordinance ?* i i j ~ ~ ^ t . and wuruiiy yiomeu it, mi *n??> week before last Conductor Powell and Engineer Wilkins, of the freight train, were both arrested and placed under a $200.00 bond for trial. The case was set for hearing on Monday of last week, but was continued on tho grounl of the necessary absence of Mr. Eiliott., head counsel ef the railroad. No definite date has been fixed for the trial, but it will be forced to a hearing in the near future. Besides the ordinance above mentioned there is anothor ordinance recently passed, which will go into effect, on December 1st, 1912, prohibiting any railroad from running any trains, whatever, on the Main Street of the Town. Just what the effect of this ordinance will be is not known and it may be fought in the courts by the Railroad Company's after December 1st. The people of the Town are hoping, however, that it will result in moving the railroad track away from Main Street. thus putting an end to a common nuisance in the matter of noise, dust, and smoke and even rerfous injury to the pedestrians and the drivers of private vehicles.

Adams, a well known crivelling man, to loaye the train and take to the woods. The trouble arose over a South Carolina mileage book which Mr. Adams had purchased and paid for before beginning h4s journey at Mui'ins, S. C. lie had understood before starting on the trip that the Railroad was not compelled to take the mileage in payment of fare on a?: iterstate journey. His trip at fir*? was to extend frr rn Mullins in "Ibis State across the line into North Carolina to Chadb ?urn and thence back into South Carolina to Loris. As ihis would 'ake him out of the State he bought a ticket at Mullins, which was go <i to Loris, ' >. C., aud at Loris decided to come on to Conway. Mr. Adams did not buy a new ticket at Loris and when the train was about a mile fMom Loris towards Conway, when tbe Conductor called for tickets he presented .the mileage book which tho Conductor refused to take. The Conductor claimed that Mr. Adams was on an interstate journey, while Mr. Adams claimed that this view would not hold for tho reason that he had bought a ticket for Loris, a point within this state, and was! travelling on his way to another! point within this State, to-wit: j Conway. The Conductor forced him off the train and ho came in Cor way the following day by automobile, and tho question will be litigated in the Court. PERSONAL AND OTHERWISE.
