INFORMATION ABOUT SCHOOLS

Supt. Mebane is preparing to have a
very small handbook made containing
the names and addresses of every coun-
ty supervisor and every member of the
county boards of education in the States
To this end he is now receiving reports
from all the counties. He is also having
further reports prepared for his own use
giving the names and addresses of the
members of the township committees.
When this work is complete the super
intendent will be in direct and immediate
touch with every public school in the
State.

his testimony against Julia Hester was
something most scathing and terrible.
He said he would not call him man.
He is not a man; he's thing-a mis-
cradle, contemplate thing-tlthy, Shiny.
Yet he says he's a married man, church
member. God save the mark"
At 1:15 clock, Mr.. Ryan had not
completed his argument and the court
took a recess until 2:30 o'clock. At that
hour Mr.. Ryan resumed his argument,
finishing it at $3.50.
Rather than perjure my soul as Chas.
Robertson has done," Mr.. Ryan CON
tinued, rather than come into Il court
of justice and, with lying lips, try to
swear away a poor forsaken girls last
hope in life, I'd suffer the hangman to
swing me between heaven and earth,
with my eyes on eternity. Believe such
a man, I'll not insult your intelligence,
your honesty by supposing for a moment
you'd believe him. Any man who loves
virtue, truth and honesty will condemn
and despise you forever, sir. All like
you-Tom Hester, Frank Weathers,
Everett carp and all that ilk. Who is
Tom Hester? He comes from the viper S
den, where snakes and frogs and YER
min are Matched. He comes from the
Robertson fold. He is one of the prin-
cpal flowers in the Robertson boquet."
IN THE WOMAN'S CELL.
1t was most excellent argument
the speech of the case. Eloquent i'll die
tion logical in thought, keen in satire
with here and there rich vein of hui
mOr-terrible in his denunciation of
wrong and wrong -doers, Mr.. Ryan made
a great speech. During the more than
three hours that he spoke the court room
was crowded and when he had finished
it was pronounced by all who heard it
as one Of the finest efforts heard in the
court house here in many years.
This completed the argument and the
judge at once proceeded to charge the
jury. The charge was in writing and
the reading of it consumed nearly an
hour. 1t was an elaborate and exhaustive,
resume of the evidence and an eminently
fair and impartial exposition of the law
governing it.
1t was 6 o'clock when the jury retired.
They had been out only ten minutes
when they came back and rendered a
verdict of guilty.
Counsel for defendant at once gave
notice of appeal to the Supreme court,
and the bond was fixed ut - 1000 justified.
Robertson was then turned over TO
Sheriff Jones, who had him taken to Jail
and locked up by himself in the woman's
cell. There he remained about an hour
until George Robertson and Allen Marsh
burn, his brother and brother-in-law,
made up his bond. When this had been
given the seducer was released from
Jail pending the hearing of his appeal.
He is now under a $1,000 bond alto
gether-S2, 900 in this case and $1,000
in the civil action. 1t is therefore not
likely that he will son endanger the
morals of the newly Undiscovered gold
fields of Alaska, or return to Texas. If
he does the school fund will be the
gamer by $1,000 and his family the
loser

Do You Use 1t?

It's the best thing for the
hair under all circumstances.
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, so no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro-
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayers Hair Vigor. 1t re-
moves dandruff, cleanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil in
which the hair grows, and,
lust as a desert will blossom
under rain, so bald heads grow
hair, when the roots are nour-
ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
to retain its normal color, or
if you wish to restore the lost
tint of gray or faded hair use

MARSHAL CARROLL INDICATED

The Richmond Dispatch says: Elk
Congressman +. A. Woodland. of North
Carolina, counsel for United States
Marshal Carroll, filed his supplementary
answer to the charges against the latter,
with the solicitor-general at the Depart
ment of Justice yesterday evening. That
gentleman carefully looked over the pa
pers and after full consideration, said
the refutati of the charges was com
plete in every particular and Marshal
Carroll was fully eXhonerated. His
record was shown to be clean and he
was credited with being one of the best
marshals in the country" This is very
gratifying to Marshal CAROLS numer-
Gus friends in Raleigh, although they
were confident that he would be en-
tirely indicated. He has been an eff
ficient, painstaking official.
Mr.. J. W. Denmark, chief clerk in the
State Treasurer's office, has gone to
Morehead to attend the Bankers Associ-
alton, which met yesterday and is in SEES
