TWO NEW CELLS IN JAIL.
They Will Separate the Women and Correct an
Abuse That Has Prevailed.

Chairman Green, of the Board of
County Commissioners, acting under au-
tEority of the board, has awarded the
contract for placing two new Bessemer
steel cells in the county jail.
The contract was awarded to the
Pauly Jail Building and Manufacturing
Company, of ST. Louis. The cells cost
S1,400.
The new cells will meet the imme-
date demands of the Jail and correct an
evil that has long since been condemn
ed. The new cells will create a wo-
mans department, separating the female
and male prisoners entirely. Under the
present arrangement the cells in which
women are confined are separated from
the male cells only by an iron grating.
When the new cells are put in they will
cut off the female cells entirely. This
reform has long since been petitioned
by grand iuries.

Walker and Hutin Talk Over Canal
(By the Associated Press.l

Washington, Oct. 17.-President Hutin,
of the Panama Canal Company, had an
interview today with Admiral Walker,
chairman of the Isthmian Canal Commits
sion. 1t was expected that President
Hutin would see Admiral Walker in re-
gard to the terms upon which his COM
pany would surrender their right and
title to the partially constructed Panama
Canal to the United States, but no such
proposition was submitted today. There
was a preliminary discussion, however,
of the whole canal subject and further
meetings are to be held. Admiral Walker
declined to make any statement further
than to say that if a proposition were
submitted it would go to the President in
the report of the Canal Commission, and
that nothing concerning it would be
given out for publication by the COM
mission.

Louisburg Times Gives True Figures.
Claudio Bernard Doomed.

And now it turns out that Senator
Pritchard spoke to 600 people at Louis
burg, instead of $500 as the Republicans
and their emsaries are claiming.
Of his 600 auditors two-thirds were ne
groes and as yet no estimate has been
made of the drove of doodles who were
imported for the occasion.
These figures are given by the Louis
burg Times, reliable and accurate pa
per. Senator Pritchard is hard pushed if
this is all he can find to boast of. Peo-
pie from Louisburg says the crowd was
no larger than that generally attracted
to Louisburg on Tuesday of court week.
The Lousbdrg Times in speaking Of the
crowd said.
I'VE see that Collector Duncan and
others estimated the crowd here on
Tuesday at $500, and that they all came
here to hear Senator Pritchard. The
truth of the matter is there were about
one Thousand visitors in town, including
the Senator's attendants. He spoke from
a stand on the court square and the
DumDef VINO heard HIIIl were Hot wv
six hundred. OF this number at least
half or two thirds were negroes. 1t was
Tuesday of court, and as We have stated
elsewhere, the crowd was no larger than
usually attend on that day"
And again the Times said:
THE crowd in town on Tuesday was
about the usual Tuesday of court week
size" with about forty or fifty foreign
Republicans, mostly office holders
added"
Little Claudio Mellnote Bernard had
as well hang up his juice harp and join
the order of "Olso Rams" according to
the Louisburg Times, which says:
while he was in Louisburg Senator
Pritchard was the guest of Judge Tim
berlake. On Monday night the visiting
Republican office holders and few of
the "Leaguers" met the Senator at
Judge Undertakes residence, and it is
supposed chat the District Attorney
ship was settled" AS Republican is

paint for the two big hotels at Coney
Island-Manhatta and Oriental. They
are painted once in three years with
Devoe lead and zinc.
Why so often? Three reasons: III sea
air cuts paint; (3) hotels, especially
pleasure hotels, want freshness and

Mr.. Editor, with your permission | |
want to take advantage Of the "kicker's |
column" to speak of what consider an
evil that Is prevalent in most of the
churches of the country, and that is
pulpit announcements OF things that
are not strictly religious. The pulpit
is expressly u place from which the
gospel is proclaimed and when minis.
ter advertises an entertainment, fest-
val, etc, from the pulpit on Sunday
he Is divertng the minds Of his hearers
from religious TO secular things. The
preachers are not so much to blame for
this, because the church members re-
quest and expect such announcements
or advertisement. Is it right for a
preacher to advertise or announce any
thing in the pulpit on Sunday that
would raise commotion among church
people II the same was held on Sunday
For instance, ian ice cream festival
will be given in Bells hall Sunday eve-
ming" say he has not. My humble
opinion is that there should be refor-
nation in this matter. and that nothing
but religious services should be an
nounced from the pulpit of any church
on Sunday. There Is only one church
that / have heard of in this section
where nothing but strictly religious
services is announced from the pulpit
on Sunday and that Is the Beechwoods
Presbyterian church. The Sunday ad-
vertising business has been IN vogue so
long that some people have come 10 look
