Wilson, y. c., Dec. 23.-(Special)-
North Cardinals famous humorist, Mr..
Henry Blount, has been winning new
laurels in South Carolina as will be
seen from the following notice in the
Marion Star:
Our town had the pleasure of hear
ing Mr. Henry Bloqnt, the great humor-
list lecturer, on last Tuesday night. The
lecture was full of the finest humor
and the loftiest thoughts. To laugh, and
that side-splitting, was a necessity. His
jokes given in his inimitable style yield
ed the richest fun to the entire audi
ence Interspersed between these jokes
were lofty thoughts clothed in beau
tiful and poetic language. His perora-
ton dealing with the Italy beyond the
Alps of time, through faith in the Lord
Jesus and conscientious performance of
Christian duty was indeed sublime.
The title of his lecture was Beyond
the Alps Lies Italy" In short it was
a treat to hear this distinguished gem
tleman. We hope to enjoy the pleasure
again some day

required a whipping to make the former

lated the whole story. The town mar
shall brought the prisoners TO town and
placed them in the city prison.

SEES NO CAUSE FOR PANIC.
Gage Sums Up the Financial Situation.
Confers With J. p. Morgan.

New York. Dec 23.-Lyman j. Gage,
Secretary of the Treasury, was in
conference at the Subrreasury today
with j. Pierpont Morgan and james
Stillman, President of the City Ma
tional Bank The conference lasted an
hour, Mr.. Morgan taking leave of the
Secretary in advance of Mr.. Stillman.
William Sherer, Manager of the Clear
ing House Association, was also at the
conference for a short time. In his in
formal talk to the reporterse after the
conference, the Secretary said:
Il was at East Orange last night and
| thought | would come over here today
to see Treasurer Jordan and talk with
him about the situation. While here
| have been looking up the evidence or
this panic we hear 50 much about, as In
dicated by the operations of the past
week. Last Christmas everybody was
happy. Money was easier and freer.
No conditions of distress appeared any.
where in sight. At the present time
there is very dffernt Christmas feel
ing, and l have been looking at the facts
to see what has occurred to justify the
change.
II find that a year ago, this date, the
deposits of the Associated Banks of New
York were $500. 100000; loans were
SI0S000,000, and cash on hand S21S,-
100000. Today the deposits are S74O.-
000O000, a shrinkage of S66,000.000.
Loans show a decrease of S32,000.00O;
cash shows a decrease of S24, 600. 900.
and perhaps at the lowest possible esti-
mate it would be safe to say that $1O,-
100000 in the shrinkage in deposits Is
due to the fact that New York charges
for check collections.
THE shrinkage in loans and cash just
offsets the shrinkage of S56,000.000 in
deposits. The clearing house statement
today shows an increase in reserve of
S3,500,000 for the week, bringing the
surplus reserves of the banks in excess
of legal requirements to be substantially
S11 100000. l cannot see, looking ar
it from the outside. where the panic
conditions are justified by the facts OF
the case"
The Secretary was asked whether his
talk with Messrs. Morgan and Stillman
foreshadows any further action on the
part of the Treasury Mr.. Gage an
swered:
''No, not at ALL"
do you propose to accept any more
United States bonds and extend the
time for doing SOP
NO, | do not. The option closes to-

THE GLOBE NATIONAL FAILURE
Former President Under Surveillance
Charged With It's Ruin.

Boston, Dec. 23.-The trend of affairs
connected with the closing of the Globe
National bank in this city, for the first
time developed criminal aspect through
the placing under surveillance today in
California of the banks former Presi-
dent. Charles II. Cole.
The charge against Mr.. Cole is the
old one of overdrafts and over loans,
many to himself. and the action of the
receiver, of the bank, ordering the ar
resi-, while shock to the friends of the
former president, was not surplus.
1t is practically agreed that it was a
gigantic speculation in copper stocks, in
which Mr.. Cole became so much mvoiv-
ed that the banks money and credit was
used until it was well nigh exhausted.
The inevitable result of failure fol-
lowed after the bank was bolstered up
by the clearing house which paid its in
debtedness to the extent of many MIL
lions.

MAN OF TWO WIVES
Chas. B. Biddox Arrested in
Durham For Bigamy.
Wife No. 2 Who Returns With Him to Green.
vile, S. c., Indignantly Declares the
Charge False.

Durham, y. c.. Dec. 23.-(Special.)-
Deputy Sheriff Giles, of Greenville, S.
c.. was here this morning and carried
back with him white man by the name
of Charles g.. Biddox, who is wanted
there on the charge of bgamy. Some
two or three months ago he came to
Durham and since that time has been
employed in the Erwin Cotton Mills at
West Durham. When he came here he
brought young wife with him.
1T transpires that prior to his marriage
sometime during the summer, he already
had a wife living. His first wife was
a woplan named Carrie Ogacsby, while
wife No. ? was Ella Thompson.
Wife No. accompanied her husband
and Officer Giles back to Greenville. She
is very indignant over her husbands ar
rest. and says she does not believe the
charge that he has another wife. She
told the officer who had handcuffed Bid
dox that she hoped to live to see the day
when he would have handouts placed
upon his wrists.
Officer Giles is positive that he has
the right man, who has been wanted at
Greenville for sometime.
Biddox is not prepossessing looking
man by any means, and how one woman,
much less two, could fancy him enough
to marry him. is something that cannot
be understood.
TRINITY NOTES.
DIR. J. /. Hamaker, lectured in the Col
lege Chapel on the subject, Correlation
of Mind and Body" He first gave
brief outline of the structure of the nery-
Gus system, illustrated by means of
charts, and how it is related to other
organs of the body. He discussed the in
fluence of the mind ON the body through
the nervous system, under normal con-
ditions, and also under pathological con-
ditions. He also outlined the working of
the mind ON the body in so-called mind
cures. He also discussed at length the
effect of the body ON the mind, showing
how the body conditioned the activity of
the will. and influenced the mind through
the emotions. The lecture was very
interesting one The next lecture in the

The apparent interest with which
the engagement of Marie Lamour and
company in Wilfred Clarke's great
comedy success "A Wise Woman" at
the Auditorium Tuesday night is
fraught, is not to be wondered at when
one stops to consider the personnel of
the company, and the marvellous recep-
ton accorded Mr.. Clarke's play on its
original presentation at the Strand
Theatre London. "A Wise Woman"
proved itself one of the most remark
able comedy successes ever produced
at that theatre from both a box office
and artistic standpoint, and the tour
of the play in this country has so far
sustained the splendid reputation that
preceded it. Mis- Lamour, who is be-
ing featured in the title role, is grad
uate from Augustin Daly's company

she has been seen in many important
roles The supporting company in
