INSURANCE MIDDLE,
Legislative Oversight Endangers Val-
liable Property,


State insurance act for the insurance
of the State Hospital for the Insane.
AS the thing now stands, owing to an
oversight or the neglect OF the ieglS-
lature to handle the matter thorough
ly practically all of the valuable pro-
perty OF this Institution, worth about
$4,000 is and has been without in
surance of any kind since March /.
This seems to be another blunder OF
the legislature in passing a specific
fact requiring the hospital TO take
State insurance and yet not making
any provision in the appropriation OIL
for the payment Of the premium. Tie
comptroller general says that had he
had any authority in the matter he
would have issued his warrant some
time ago and the whole matter would
have been adjusted by this time.
II now looks as if the only remedy
is ;or the regents of the hospital to
meet and borrow the money from
some bank on notes and get the legis-
ia.ure to remedy its oversight when
II reassembles in January next.
The following is the letter from the
State treasurer to the comptroller in
regard TO the matter:

Two Excellent Meetings
Held by Mrs. Pearson

Mrs. r. G. Pearson, the wife of Evan
gelist Pearson. who is worthy CO.
worker with her husband in the work of
evangelization, held two most excellent
meetings yesterday
The first of these was at $3.50 in the
Presbyterian church. and there was a
goodly attendance of ladies and girls to
hear her. 1t was a meeting marked with
quiet intentness that showed what she
said was taking hold on the hearts and
consciences of her hearers.
The subject upon which she talked was
Deferred and Unanswered Prayer as
taken from the Scriptures. 1t was an
unusual theme, treated, however, with
such originality and force as to be full
of interest. instruction, warning and at
the same time comfort to her hearers.
In her hands these familiar incidents
of scripture became many sided prisms
revealing light and beauty as their pre-
cious truths were disclosed and brought
out plainly into view
That to attend these services is es-
teemed both q pleasure and a privilege
is evidenced by the interest and number
of those who have gone again and again
to hear her.
This afternoon Mrs. PearSon's subject
will be Working for Jesus" and the
services will last from $3.50 to 4:30
O'Clock
After the services at the church were
over. Mrs. Pearson spoke to the young
ladies at Peace Institute. Her theme
was. THE Bible Idea of a Perfect Wo-
man." as taken from the last chapter of
Proverbs. 1t was talk full of practical
value to the young women who heard
her, and of such nature as to make an
impression for good on the future lives
of many who listened to her eloquent
words ~ q

THE GOVERNORS DENIAL
OF REPUBLICAN CHARGES
Printed in Statesville Landmark and Accredits
Him With an Attempt 10 Trade
Officers

The Statesvile Landmark contained a
letter in the issue received here yester-
day from some Republican, who sought to
put Governor Ayeock in falsC light. The
communication was signed Jim Dandy. =
One of the puerile charges against the
Governor was that Re hal promised TO
Mr.. r. B. PEBBLES the nomination for Cor
poration Commissioner if he would with
draw as a candidate for the iudgesnip
against Judge Francis .. Winston The
allegation was made that Capt feebles
spurned the proposal.
This Republican correspondent charges
that Governor Aycock is for Hon. Locke
Craig for United States Senator and that
he has promised the nomination for Gov
ernor to Hon. Lee S. Oyerman to get him
out of Mr.. Craig's way in the Senatorial
contest
OF course no Democrat believes any
such rot. The Governor was seen yester-
day and shown the article referred to in
the Statesville paper. He said:
There is not word of truth in the
statement so far as it relates to me and
the man who wrote it knows It. Both Mr.
Overman and Capt PEBBLES will deny the
charges. | have not communicated with
them either directly or indirectly about
such subject I never heard of Capt Pee
bles having an ambition to be a member Of
the Corporation Commission.

CRIES OF AGONY RISE F6OA THE DEBRlS
The Collision is Said TO Have Occurred Through
the Disregard of Orders b. the
Cr,w # One of the
Trains.
lBy de Associated Press }

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov. 20.-A fatal
one mile west of Franconia, Arizona a
switch station twenty miles east of
| Needles, California, early today. Seven
trainmen were killed, three passengers
ard four trainmen injured. Limited
trains, east and westbound, crashed to-
gether while running at full speed.
The eastbound train was drawn by
two engines, while the westbound train
had but one locomotive.
The three engines were crushed and
blown to pieces by an explosion which
followed the collision Both trains were
made UP of vestibule cars of the heaviest
kind and while they stood the terrific
shock well and protected the passengers
to great extent, several of the cars
took fire al once and burned up. The
dining cars one of each train, one Pull
man, and two composite cars were de-
stroyed.
The collision is said to have been due
to a disregard of orders by the crew Of
the westbound train, though full parti
culars at this point are as yet lacking
from all accounts, however. it is gather
ed that the eastbound train had orders
to take the siding at Franconia and
await the passing OF the westbound
Flyer which was running two hours late
and trying to make up time. The east
bound train failed to reach the siding,
and. as the westbound train did not wait
for it the two trains came together
without warning and with an awful crash.
The boiler of the westbound engine is
said to have exploded Immediately after
the crash, scalding to death those of the
engine crews who had not been killed
outright.
scAlr of awful confusion folio we'd the
crash. The massive engines piled up in
an indescribable mass of broken and
twisted steel, while the scalding steam
hung in a dense. suffocating cloud over
the debris, from which the agonizing
cries of the injured and dying enginemen
could be heard. The heavy Pullmans and
composite cars iammed the dining and
baggage cars upon the heated pile of
Debris carrying death to the dining car
crews and setting the cars afire
From the meagre details of the scenes
gathered from the passengers. it is
learned that the sleeping cars with one
or two exceptions, suffered slightly, and
as a result the passengers were afforded
comparative immunity from injury. So
far as learned, only three passengers all
from California, suffered severe injuries,
the terrible results of the wreck being
confined almost entirely to the train
crews and the employees of the dining
car service.
The westbound limited carried a full
passenger list from eastern cities, but it
appears that none was injured.

The evangelist was at his best and
preached a clear and profound sermon on
an d-time subject, but while as CID
as the Bible he gave il freshness and

Tonight he will preach at eight o'clock
on Practical Holiness. He said last night

press a desire to remain for prayer and

Referring last night to the fact that in
Peters day three thousand persons were
