MACK KING. Interurban El System (By Albert F;.C?IS, in Manufactures' I R?cord) Thc Dukes of Durham and their associates have in operation an elec tric railroad io North Carolina and South Carolina that in many of tis features ls a strikingly unique inno vation in the railroad world. It 1B not only a carrier of passenger traf fic, on familiar interurban lines, but is built, acquipped und apurtenanced for heavy freight traffic, and will, in deed, make freight handling as im portant a part of its business as lt ls of any standard steam road. Heavy electric engines, able to pull 1,000 tons, or a train of 30 to 40 loaded cars, have been Installed and are at work, and although tho linea in oper ation ure only-a portion of the full system to be built, the operations aro on a very robust commercial scale now, and give definite Indication of the Important factor the line will be in th? transportation field of the Pied mont section. intimately the system will be about 320 miles long, and will exfond from Durham. N. C., to Greenwood, S. C. At present it ls operated in two sec tions under the name of the Pied mont & Northern lines. One section of. 2.T 1-2 miles, extending from Char lotte to Gastonla, ls at present called tho Piedmont Traction company; the otb "Jr, from Spartanburg to Green wood, S. C.. a length of !Kt.5 miles, with a branch from Belton to Ander son of 10.5 miles. This section is called the Greenville, Spartanburg & Anderson railway. After July ? both companies will consolidate and oper ate under a South Carolina charter with the name of the Piedmont & Northern railway. The' gap between Gastonla and Spartanburg ls 54 miles. From Char lotte to Durham ls 148 miles. While no definite plana for the construction of the Gastonla-Spartanburg gap and the Durham extension have been in nounced, the maps put out by the company indicate theBe as projected lines, and their carly completion ts manifestly inevitable. They are need ed te unify the system. There ls no talk of further extensions beyond these linea, and, in fact, the line be tween Durham and Greenwood makes a.very compact unit of itself, lt con nects with all the railroads of thc South Atlantic coast, and serves thc section of greatest southern industrial development. j Up to the present time the con struction expenditures have been financed by thc company, and no bonds have been - Issued^ -With - the Incorporation of the new oompany, w)th< a capital stock of $50,000,000, arrangements for fund lpg, the enter prise Mil be.made." There have been, spent in 'construction, terminals and. .equipment Some $10.000,000. It will probably require on towards ?an addi tional $10,000,000 to build the-, remain ing 200 odd miles to completo the System, and $2,000,000 for the equip ment of these extensions. The road is due to the enterprise of J. B. Duke, who also 1B responsible for the Southern Power company, with ita network of, transmission lines and numerous hydro-electric developments In the Piedmont section. ' A company was organized with $15.000,000 cap ital, and while the Duh?? and asso ciates were always heavily Interested and took the Initiative In financing ihe enterprise, the co-operation of the oesple along the line waa desired and was freely and liberally given. There ire stockholders in every town on the road in both North and Soutb Caro lina, and even people outside ot America voluntarily took stock on hearing about the ente'rprl?e. The officers of the company are: J. B. Duke, president. New York; W. 3. Lee, vice president; E. Thomason, treasurer and general manager; W. A'Cocke, secretary; T. L. Black, au ditor; all these or Charlotta The di rectors, in addition to the officer.1 named, are all local men. Tne gcu eral offices'are at Charlotte, so that the enterprise,la given a distinctly-to cal coloring. The first section of the road, from Charlotte- to Gastonla, was finished and opened for traffic July 3. 1912. Tbe next section was built ' from Greenwood to Belton, and from there to Anderson, and- waa opened in No vember, 1912. The line from Belton to (Greenville ' was completed and opened for trafilo a month later, and the extension from Greenville to Spar tanburg wrns opened un s. fow weeks . ago, March 23. 1014. Standard construction was adbpted throughout, and the road was built to a maximum 1 per cent grade. Eighty ! pound rails* were laid, and the track '. ut to be entirely rook-ballasted. AH ? ihe "treaties and bridgea are of ateel, 1 built to Southern railway apeclflca 1 tiona; so that any engine on tho Southern, Pennaylvanla. or.1 other standard road may run over the line.' fr, A striking feature of the enterprise is the system of terminals provided. In' the larger cl tl ea on the Une exten dive altes have been secured, and in the -yer^, heart., of ..the ,cRyr Service and Wveniepeb .??e the duliiin?M' factors in preparations made for .han dling traffic. From a h al f to a whole block of ground has been i toured In each case, i A vory Handsome .Standard type of building baa .been adopted ?for freight depots and the . extensive warehouses that form a part of each torminal equipment The buildings are of buff brick,, with red ?le roofs; a&d even the. stations of the smaller towns conform to tho general type. Numerous tracks are built Into' the t?rminals serving the depots at door- . high platforms, and switch tracks servo tbe warehouses. all through. Tho land and buildings of tho Char lotte terminals cont $500,000. The terminals at Greenville and Spartan* i>arg ?oat practically Ute same amount, 'and those:*t-Anderson about $400. OW/.

The main company shops are at Greenville. The building ls of brick, conforming to tbo standard type of other buildings of the road. It ie completely and most modernly equip ped. Building and land cost $160, OOO; equipment, $350.000. There is another shop at Plnoca, near Char lotte, which has cost about $150,000. The freight equipment consists of 12 freight carrying electric locomo tives, eight box-type locomotives una a freight car equipment of all steel standard type cars, such as steam railroads use. Six big new locomo tives, designed and built by the Gen eral Electric company, have just been put in use. These engines weigh G3 1-2 to ii H, und are rated to haul a train of 1,000 tons gross weight. Each locomotive is driven by foui motors, geared to an axle, so that all the axles are driving axles. The technical description of this type ot engine is as follows. .Length of Inside knuckles, .17 feel 4 Inches; length over cab. 27 feet; height to trolley base, 13 feet; width over all, 9 feet 8 inches; rigid wheei base, 7 feet 2 inches; track gauge, 4 feet 8 1-2 inches; tractive effort at 25 per cent. co-efllcient, 30,00i. pounds; tractive effort at one hour rating, 17,000 pounds,; tractive effort at continuous rating,'11,2*00 pounds; weight per driving axle, 31,750 pounds; weight electrical equipment 37,500 pounds; weight mechanical equipment, 89,500 " pounds; totai weight on drivers, 127,000 pounds. Tho smaller type bf engine used is not essentially different In principle Its rating, however, ts for a haulage of 800 tons gross, Instead of 1,000. The line is operated on high voltage. 1,500 volts direct- current. . The passenger equipment now con sists of 23 motor driven trolly cars, made by thc Jewett ('ur company, ol Newark, Ohio. They'"" aro 05 feet long, of highest standard construc tion and luxurious KlniShed, and are comfortable riding at their capacity speed of CO miles'an hour. They are operated In service at a maximum schedule sp od of 48, miles an hour. There have ^een orddrYd, delivery to begin in June', ten h?w all steel pas senger cars, to. be used as trailers. Aleo.'ttvb stfeel parlbr.^cars, with ob servation end-nu dbe as any steam road ban-to be used as trailers. All the passenger cara are electric light ed and l.catcu, Qnd have the maxi mum of comfort ana 'convenience to bo lound in modern, passenger cars. The earnings of Qi a road, both flelgh?.?nd np?asanger? are . stated to be! very satisfactory for. a new road. There,were;7,000 people handled by the .'?li 1-2 mlle .North Carolina divis ion cn Mecklenburg Bay, May 20. and ?he'Ybad'handles an average ot 3,000 every day. Beginning Hay 31, a sleeping car service will be inaugurated between Spartanburg and Atlanta. The car will be .delivered to the Seaboard Air L-!ne ' at Greenwood!1 "' ft la not diffi cult to foresee a time when through /sleeping cars from northern and eastern cities will be routed over this line, with the completion of the road to Durham and the opening of the Ciinchfleld route to the north OR tho completion of the Elanora City ex tension. A recent event on the in terurban was the gathering up of u ? trainload of excursionists along ' the > line between Greenwood and Spartan burg bound for ft- day at Altapass. The electric road hauling it with one of the smaller tyne engines, turned th? several coach train over to the C. C. & O. at Sparenburg and received lt there on the return trip. Arrangements h av? been made by. the new road for all kinds of pas senger business, including the-' Issu ance of mileage books. Plans have been perfected fl with ' all ? connecting roads-Seaboard,' Southern, -Atlantic Coast Lide,' Carolina, Ciinchfleld & Ohlo-^and also with all the railroads in th? country, for tho interchange of. bnslnesa at steam - road rates. , The Piedmont & Northam oatt thus bill freight- any where' that steam rail roads po, and con Issue hills of lao lng 'or ? foreign shipments anywhere in t-td world and at the same ratet, any other road can offer.' ?Local daily package cara havo been PUt on for Service td add from Ports? mouth and Richmond and all | pointa on tho electric road.

It is recognized that the construc tion of the electric road is a most extraordinary enterprise. A sugges tion was made that perhaps Mr. Duke being so heavily interested In the Southern Water Po wyr company, was moved by a consideration of provid ing a new customer for electric pow er. The ann wer was that the power the road consumes ls a matter of In ferior Importance. "One big cotton mil! will UBe a great deal more pow er than the entire electric line," lt was declared. The explanation seem ed to be that with Duke lt was the passion tc achieve something big something that would not be done unless it was done by him-together with a pr.'de in the development of his native state and HO ct I on. .'t ls known that the energy the people of the Piedmont section have shown In rehabilitating themselves and their country after the complete desolation of the war has always strongly ap pealed to J. B. Duke. In his ad miration for their character and achievements, he has long expressed a desire to da something that would be helpful, and this ls held to be tho underlying motive tn all thut he has done down. here. Power for the operation of tho traction,company is brought from the Southern Power Company, - which hus developments of over 100,000 horse power on the Catawba, Broad river and Saluda. The Southern Power company also buys 10,000 horsepev.er from the Georgia Raliway & Power company's development at Tallulah Fulls, Ga. A very interesting feature in con nection with the operation of the electric road is the aafety plans evolved. In the system of train de spatching liiere nus bC-tui w?i~k?d Out the highest development ot tele phone, Bcmaphone and automatic safety devices and appliances that are known to the service. Here IB the first installation of a system gotten out by the Union Switch & Signal company, of SwlBsvale, Pa., In connec tion with the Western Electric com pany. Tho dispatcher has complet?, -control of the entire system, and even at stations where there is nb agent he can regulate the slgnnls through his central control. - . The stations are about five miles apart, at each of which there ia a Semaphore,, protected by a lock, the key for which the conductor carries. The, dispatcher can display ja danger signal from his desk, dropping" the board at any station, the sam-J as on operator may do under the block sys tem on a steam road. The dispatcher cannot return tho board to safety. Thia must be done by the conductor who ls halted by tho danger signal. On restoring tho board to Bafety an auto matic Moree code algnal registers Sn the dispatcher's office, Indicating thc train baa gone by. If it should be nec essary for a train to muet at passing tracks where there is no operator, the red board can be thrown by the dis patcher as an prevention agaln-u a misunderstanding of orders, and thus serven for what la known as the middle order. Whenever stopped the con ductor can gt in touche by telephone with the dispatcher and receive his or dere, BO that a'dispatcher may stop a train and giro orders at any station along the road. i i - In case of misunderstanding or over looked orders, if a train gets past a station whre lt should have stopped, the failure tb signal lu noted at the dispatcher's desk. In ordinary dis patching, when a train get* by and an other train is in thc block, there !? usually nothing that can be done ex cept to rush a relief train -vith doctor* and nurses to the seme bf the in?vita ble wreck. In-the case of the electric road, the dispacher has cbbtrol of the power current, and if it collision ls Impending he simply reaches tiver, tr rows a switch, and everjrj train on tile road Ia dead. The situation ltira' ia of easy adjustment by tel.^ohor-e from any nearby semaphore box. - For added aafety and convenience, every car and every engine carries a portable telephone' set, which can be booked onto the wire anywhere, estab lishing telephone communication nt once with any place desired.

St. John's Methodist church was well fill vi last night with those who caine to witless the. presentation of diplo mas to the th rise young ladles grndu [aUr.g from tho Anderson county hos pital Ufte three long years of hurd work The nurses to receive diplo mas at last night's exorcises were. Miss Janie D. Langley, MIBS Emma E. CiinkscaleB and Miss Sara Dickson. The exercises began promptly at 8 o'clock a?>d there has never been a commencement program carried out lu a more Interesting manner than was that of laut night. The exercises were opened laat night by tho Rev. Dr. W. H. Frazer, pastor of the First Presby terian church of Anderson and he was followed by Dr. J olin F. Vines, pastor of the First Baptist church of Ander son. Dr. Vines spoke to the class as a representative of the ministerial union and surpassed himself in- -one cf the most able addresses Anderson people havo ever heard bim make. Easily the' feature of the evening was the address of Dr. J. Ben Town Bend on behalf of the medical men ot the city. It was a gem and all those hearing it felt that Dr. Townsend deserved to be richly complimented on his splendid effort. He made an Im pression, not only upon the nurscB, but upon all those hearing lt as well. In his very happy manner, ll. 8. Ligon, president of the Anderson coun ty hospital association, presented the diplomas to the three young ladies and the exercises concluded. One feature not to be overlooked was the splendid music rendered? The officials in charge of the exercises feel that they were fortunate In being able to secure such talented performers the public will agree with them. In this opinion. SET RECORD FOR ENTIRE STATE ? Anderson Planter Yesterday Pine od Order For More Clover Thar. Was Ever Purchased - (From Saturday's Daily.) Anderson county planters set a new J record yesterday for the planting ot clover in this county when B. M. Aull I of Auton purchased from Furmau ?Smith 200 bushels of.i->urr clover. Mr. Smith said last night that this was the largest, order ever given in South I Carolina'for burr clover and dat he : would unhesitatingly moke that state ment. He said that he had never heard of any planter in this State buying that much clover and he. also said that Anderson county should be con gratulated upon "having"' a, farmer, progressive enough to see the value of clover and realize what its planting I may mean. Mr. Aull Is one of thc nest known planters In Anderdon county and he farms on a large scale. Hig hog farm ls famous, not only In Soutn Carolina but almost throughout thc entire south and his system of breeding fine hogs for markets has been studied and ! adopted in all parts of the country? - His buying .the extra large amount of clover yerterday shows that Mr. Aull is n?t afraid to take a chance on something that he luis been shown by the schools and colleges of the coun try, instead of demanding that he be shown, as ls the casu with a great many farmers in thia s-?c.tion or the j country.

The regulbfc ' aumthVy meeting of thu school hoard took place yester day in th? office of K. ti. Mc.Cants, su perintendent of the city nchoulB. The most Important mutter attended' to at this meeting wan the selection of two new teachers for thc- city schools, al though considerable olscusaion was heard about the burned school house. The trustes looked with favor upon tho proposition to udd two more rooms to the donn street school when tho new building ls erected and thin ac tion will probably bo taken. The election of teachers resulted In choosing MISB Mary Hough of Green ville as one of the instructors for the high velmol and Miss Ruby Manning ot , .Anderson us a teacher in the South ! Sldu Behool, vice Miss Cornolia Sad grove, resigned. This completes tho faculty of C3 for tho city schools of Anderson.
