without trial today began the trial OF
Lieut.. John H. A. Day, of the Marine
Corps, on the same charge. Lieut.. Day
testified in his own defense. He said the
man shot January 10 was spy, who was
shot by Major Walters orders, and
added:
II ordered Private Kresge to fire at
his head and ordered Mcgee to fire at the
center OF his back. After the shooting
l saw convulsive shudder of the mans
shoulders, placed my own revolver to
his forehead and shot him dead. / or
dered the police to leave the body on the
ground as an example to the natives"
Major Waller testified that he ordered
the shooting of eleven men, January ~.
but denied ordering the execution OF a
man January 10. He admitted he was
very ill at the time.
Surgeon Love testified that Major Wal

His illness then was such that he was
not fitted to command. 1t was likely he

THE LIFE OF JOSEPH.
Miss Blodgett Talks of This Great Bible
Character.

After tracing the wonderful transforma-
ton of Jacobs character, naturally
mean and selfish, by the grace and good
ness of God, his very name Jacob, which
means decision having been changed to
that of Israel, which means Prince OF
God, Miss Blodgett yesterday afternoon
took up the life of Joseph.
In the history of no other Bible char
acter is the text call things work to-
gether for good to them that love God
more completely vindicated than in the
life of Joseph. Loyalty to God was the
KEYNOTE of his character. Because OF
this. we see how ever present God was in
all that shaped his after life, browning
it with ultimate success and blessing to
others. even to these also who had in
juTed him.
AS We follow Joseph's life step by step,
every incident, his youth, with all its
wrongs and trials, his bondage his
dreary captivity in prison his subsequent
promotion by Pharaoh to the first place
in his kingdom-all these were but the
small stones in the mosaic, which, when
finished, revealed the picture of a beautl-
full life A life of unfaltering, unques-
tioning allegiance and submission to God.

THE PLANS ADOPTED
Raleigh Auditorium Will Seat
1900 People.
The Changes in Acamsny Will cost $'2, 900
and Work is 10 Begin in Few
Weeks,

The Auditorium plans, prepared by
Messrs. Barrett & Thomson. were dis
cussed by the committee on plans yes
terday afternoon, and were adopted.
There were present Messrs. William
Grimes, Frank Ward and r. c. Rivers,
Mr.. w. H. Williamson being detained
by sickness. The plans now go before
the full body of directors. y
The cost to put in effect the plans
amounts to $4,000, and this will con-
vert the Academy of Music into an Au-
ditorium with a seating capacity Of over
100. AS indicated in the specifications
the main floor or pit will seat six hun
dred, the first balcony five hundred and
the gallery three hundred and ;;fty,
while the stage, adaptable for use in
large meetings or conventions, will
easily accommodate over three hundred
people.
There will be an entire change in the
appearance of the building. large
front entrance will have twelve foot
stairway with a break before the main
floor is reached. On either side of the
entrance will be ticket offices. From
the main floor outside the entrance into
the pit will be wide passageways lead
ing TO 10th galleries in addition TO the
present side entrance, which is now
used ordinarily for entrance into the
gallery for colored people. An outside
exit has been arranged for Oh Martin
street.
Inside the hall the seats will be con-
veniently arranged in the pit and gal
leries, so that the stage can easily be
seen from all parts of the house. The
front seats of the balcony will be within
forty feet of the stage and the rear
seats about eighty feet. The private
boxes will be increased from four to six
ard the plans allow for the arrangement
of private stalls in the balcony.
The present roof is to give way to
one with metallic ceiling, and the
stage will be made deeper and higher,
SO as to allow the use of special
scenery. Tie dressing room arrange
ments will be entirely changed and a
freight elevator will be put In to use
fer heavy stage property and trunks.
Altogether the new plans will give
Raleigh handsome and commojious
play house, something that has long
been needed. All the details for the
transfer of the building are in such
shape that work is expected to begin
very shortly

A REPUBLICAN ERROR
Why Tar Heel Democrats
Would Not Listen.
Proposition Made Involving Support of Sugar
Trust. Preparing to Organize Con-
gressionaI Districts.
Especial to News and Observer

Washington, D. c., April 1S.-It was in
timated to the members of the North
Carolina delegation that if they would
agree to close the debate on the Cuban
Reciprocity Bill, the Crumpacker resoIu-
ton would be indefinitely postponed. In
asmuch as all the Democratic members
of our delegation were favorable to the
Reciprocity Bill, and inasmuch as ample
time had already been allowed for de-
bate they felt constrained to vote to close
debate. But when it was suggested that
they go a step further and vote to sus-
tain the chair in case the chair should
rule that the amendment to the bill re-
pealing the differential duty on sugar
was nor germane they utterly refused to
entertain such a proposition. But under
no circumstances would they vote to help
the sugar trust, even if such a vote
should prevent the passage of these reso-
lutions. This was the position taken
by our delegation in the caucus, on
Thursday night.
It is believed by many here that polti
cally the agitation of the Crumpacker
resolutions would be beneficial to the
National Democratic party rather than
injurious, but the members of our dele
CATION feel that they should not take a
position which would disturb the bust
ness interest of our State by provoking
the agitation of this matter unless prin-
ciple should demand it. No member of
the delegation is willing to sacrifice one
ota of principle in order to side track
the Crumpacker resolutions. They feel
that if these resolutions are to be held
over them now as a threat there is no
reason why the same threat should not
be held over them at the next session
of Congress and that the issue had as
we'll be met now as at any other time
