Meeting Yesterday For Or
ganization.
All Tive Meinbers Present. Names For Count,
Boards to be Reported at Next Meet
ing, Aug. q h..

The State Board of Elections, created
under the now election law, met yes
to-day morning at the Marlborough House,
and adopted a resolution instructing the
chairman of the board to communicate
with the State chairmen of the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties and request
them to furnish a list of their respective
county chairmcn, and when furnished
that he notify the said county chairmen
to send list to the State chairmen of
their respective parties of names for
county Board of Elections in pursuance
of section 6 of the Election Law of 1901.
The next meeting of the board will be
held in Raleigh or the fourth of August,
at which time the County Boards of
Election will be appointed for the va
rious counties of the State, and such
other business transacted as may come
before the board.
All the members of the board were
present at yesterdays meeting, namely:
R. A. Doughton, of Sparta, chairman; r.
T. Claywell, of Morganton, secretary; w.
G. Lamb, of Williamson: Clarence Call.
of Wilkesboro, and A. r. Ficenan, of
Henderson.
Messrs. Lamb, Claywell and Doughton
are Democrats, and MeSSrS. Gail and
Freeman are Republicans.
No attempt is TO be made to recog-
nize Populists on the local boards. as
they are not in evidence as . State or
ganizatIon. The Republicans seem to be
as much pleased with the new election
law as the Democrats.
The county board Will have three
members, two Democrats and one Re
nuhliran Those mon will ho , mr. ~
the State chairman so that they will be
in perfect harmony with their respec-
tive party organizations The law re-
quireS that these county boards must be
named three months before the election.
hence it is necessary for the State Board
to have the lists when it meets in Au-

THE GLOVERsvILLE HORROR
Further Details of this Disaster. An Investl
CATION Ordered.
CBy the Associated Prcss0

(By the Associated PrcsS.)
Glovcrsyille, n. Y, July 5.-Thc wreck
which occurred on the Mountain Lake
Railroad late last night caused the
death of twelve persons. 1t is beIicvci
that several other victims will succumb
to their injuries. The bodies OF many
Of the v~ict;h.S were crushed and MANNED
almost beyond recognition, and the
scenes about the wreck were horrifying.
The accident was caused by a combina-
ton baggage and passenger car getting
away from the motorman and rushing
down the mountain side at terrific speed.
The brakes refused to work and at the
end of the grade the heavy car crashed
into a loaded open ear also descending
tho mountain. The latter was hurled
from the track and turned on it's side
and over 50 per cent of the passengers
were injured. Those who were pinned
directly under the car were crushed TO
death, and in some instances terribly
mutilated. The combination car also
left the track and turned on its side.
AS the scene of the accident is remote
from the city it was two hours before
appliances to raise the open car and re-
lease tho victims were secured. The

went out and added darkness to the bor-
rorS. The heavy double car struck tic

ginia by calling her heroine one of them.
Webster Davis, formerly Of South At
RIGA in the consular service and later
a full-fedged Boer lecturer in TINS
country is said to claim that the roy
alties on his Boer War book have net
ted him $3.50 600. If his royalty was
10 per cent, this would mean 1,2O0.0 600
copies. Perhaps, however, Mr.. DAVIS
received 20 per cent on his work, IN
which case 600. 900 copies Of his first
work were purchased.
Evidently, remarks a sympathetic one,
there was some conspiracy against MI
Davis. for at no time has his book Deen
hailed as a first seller by the dealers.
I erhaps Mr.. Davis was merely HIS
quoted. What he probably meant was
that he had received $50 in royalties.
Apropos of the recent publication of
a life Of William Black, the novelist,
the British Medical Journal gives some
interesting comment on the writer
habit of consulting medical specialists
regarding the diseases of his characters.
He had a horror Of carelessness and
scanned work; y = he never sub
iected one of his characters to any alb
normal conditions without satisfying
himself that his description of those
conditions was scientifically accurate.
Accordingly we do not find in Black S
novels such absurdities as the use or
the stomach-Dump in the treatment OF
poisoning by the hypodermic injection
of morphine, as described the other day
by the author of a story appearing IN a
recent magazine; or 'pyemla classed
with the pleura, the thorax and the
! clavicle as parts of the human anat-
omy, as is lone in Mr.. George w. Ca
bIe's latest novel. The Cavalier. 1t
is not every novelist, of course, who
can in any difficulty appeal to one of the
shining lights of medical science. But
all can use reasonable care not to go
wildly wrong. Gustave Flaubert, who
had himself studied medicine, took ex-
traordinary pains to get medical! details
accurate, and NJ. lola, as might be ex-
pected, laboriously gets up his facts.
Thus. when he wishes to describe the
death of Mana, from smallpox, we find
him writing to a friend for reference to
detailed descriptions of the disease.
But although his industry in collecting
documents is beyond praise. in medi-
cal matters he is too apt to rely on the
light of nature for their Interpretation
Hence, as in 'Lourdes,' his craving for
realistic effect, unrcStrained by prac-
teal knowledge Or skilled advice, makes
him draw pictures of disease which nave
no counterpart in clinical or PATHOLOGY
cal fact. In connection with this sub
ject it may be mentioned that not long
ago an American novelist thought him
self exceedingly ill-used because his
family doctor, of whom he had sought
counsel as to the right manner of dis
posing of one of the creatures of his
:; fancy, afterward sent him a bill for pro
f fessional services. Would the novelist
admit any right on the part of the doe
tor to ask him to write a short story
, for nothing"
