Benjamin Franklin, when a lad OF
eighteen, had q bit of advice literally
'beat into his head" He went, at
one time, to call upon Rev. Cotton
Mather, who received him in his
library, but when his guest left
showed him shorter way out OF
the house through narrow passage,
which was crossed by beam over.

conversation, when the minister sud
denly cried out, "Stoop, stoopr Not
understanding what was meant
Franklin bumped his head against
the beam. Mr.. Mather never missed
q chance for moral instruction, so he
said to the boy, "You are young,
and have the world before you
go through it, and you will miss
many hard thumps." Franklin was
often reminded, in after years, of the
advice so forcibly given, and said
that it did him good service.-Con

"Razzers on De Scussion."

The Madison Leader says of the
negro excursion which was run from
Winston to Madison last week:
.'All day our town was a roaring
surging crowd OF all shades from
nearly white complexion to newly
BACKED. Several fights occurred dur
ing the day, one in which a woman
knocked three others down with a
beer bottle. The train was to have
left our depot at 8 that night, but
they did not get off till 1920. The
cause of the delay was that more
came down than the company's limit
allowed and the train men were in
structed to collect the balance due
before leaving here. Several fights
occurred on the train while waiting to
leave that night and several negroes
were shot and cut, some very seri-
ously we learn. Mayor Galloway
had several cases before him the fines
amounting to $11.OO. The excur-
sion was run by the colored brass
band of Winston. The music was
very good. We learn that they more
than doubled their money on the
the venture. This was the first ne
gro excursion run over the +. 4 s.
road, and for our part, we hope it is
the last one.

Especial Correspondence of the Sentinel
Inotice in your issue of September
18th II special correspondence con-
tanning some questions concerning
the rock crusher, etc, which are of
Importance to the taxpayers of For
syth county. l am at all times ready
and willing to give the people whom
| serve all the information that is
within my knowledge. I assure this
taxpayer that it gives Vle great
pleasure to communicate with my
constituents and the people of For
syth county upon the questions
which he sets forth. | have never

the court house door, on the first
Monday in every month, full and
accurate itemized statement of my
receipts and expenditures, showing
the amount received, and from what
source, and the amount paid out,
and to whom and for what purpose.
The reason why the price of the rock
crusher has never appeared upon
either of my exhibits is from the fact
that Totten & Hogg, the men from
whom it was bought, have never pre-
scented bill to the commissioners of
Forsyth county to be passed upon
| by them. Therefore, there has never
been a voucher in favor of Totten &
Hogg: So you. see the price of
| the rock-crusher has had no chance
| to get on my book, nor on my state
| ment at the court house door. Yet,
| l understand this bill has been paid,
but not by me- The law does direct
| that it shall not be lawful for the
| county treasurer to pay claim
against the county unless the same
shall have been audited and allowed
by the board of county commission
ers. l understand that J. W. Fries,
Esq, paid $4,000 for the rock
crusher and $45 81 freight on crusher,
making $64O.61. This appears upon
bill presented to the board of coun-
ty commissioners by Messrs. F. & H.
Fries, amounting to 81, 7O7.93, with
| credits amounting to 81 1OO.S1,
