Justice R. NJ. Douglas at Noon

was no excitement or confusion of any
kind. All was orderly and dignified.
While the pond was being fixed, and after
wards, friends crowded around Mr.. Hay
wood and shook his hand and chatted with
him. At those times his face lighted up
with his usual bright smile. This was the
only approach to a demonstration When
the brothers passed rapidly from the
court house into the waiting carriage
the street was very quiet. Save tor the
little knot of people coming out of the
court house, for the bulk of the crowd had
left sooner, there was no crowd at all,
and no demonstration of any kin IN the
street.
There was not a very great crowd that
waited for the doors of the court room
to open at u O'Clock, but after they We're
opened the people came fast until the
entire room was once more packed and
damned as on the first days of the hear
ing.
The judges were two or three minutes
late in reaching the bench, and in the
mean time the prisoner and counsel on
both sides had seated themselves III the
places they usually occupied during the
hearing, the defense in the middle facing
the judges, and the prosecution over tc-
ward the jury box, near the rail.
All of counsel for the defense We're pres
ent except Capt. W. II. Day and w. \.
Jones. Senator H. E. Norris and Nh. r.
C. Strong represented counsel Tor the
prosecution. DR.. Thomas E. Skinner was
present, but Mr.. John H. Winder, who at
tended the hearing every day, had left
for his home in Columbus the night be
fore. With counsel for the defense sat
several of the bondsmen.
Naturally a great many people watched
the prisoner. Mr.. Haywood sat half facing
the judges, but not looking at them; II
fact, not once did he seem to turn his
eyes to the bench. He did not look well
his face was thin, pinched. yellow, darb
around the eyes. His air was easy, as IT
has been all through. AS usual one hanc
was tapping slightly with a tooth picl
or pencil on the table. AS Judge Douglas
began to read the decision. Mr.. Haywood
face did not change. The lines around
the mouth seemed drawn and tense. a
indeed they have seemed for several
days.
When the crucial point in the decision
was reached, still there was no change
in his face. BY those closest to him ia

IL BONDSMtN SIGNED
AT the Vital Words Of the Decision There Was.
Some Applause. Which Was Sup
pressed at Orce by Sheriff

(From News and Observer, June A.
Yesterday a few minutes after y o'clock
Associate Justice r. NJ. Douglas, eff the
Supreme Court, in the county court mouse
here, announced the decision IN the Hay
wood petition that the prisoner was en-
titled to bail. .
AS the vital words were pronounced,
there was some applause, loud clapping OF
hands in the big crowd, but Sheriff Page
cut it short in a second, commanding
silence in the court, and Judge DOUG ass
said that there must be no demonstrat len
of any kind.
Judge Douglas said that after a careful
consideration of all the testimony and
argument of counsel, Justice Wake and
he were of the opinion that. as the case
was presented to them, under the rule
laid down III State vs.. Herndon, 107 n. {.
1874, the petitioner was entitled to bail.
A bond of $40, 900 was required for the
appearance of Mr.. Haywood at the next
term of the Superior court of Wake
county. Counsel were ready with the
bond and the bondsmen, 1t beng only
necessary to fill in the amount and for
the bondsmen to Justify and be sworn.
This did not take long, and it was just
about forty minutes past twelve O'Clock
when Judge Douglas said: "The bond Is
approved. Mr.. Sheriff, you will release
the petitioner from custody" Sheriff
Page walked over to Mr.. Haywood and
formally told him he was released.
After a few minutes of converse
ton with friends, Mr.. Haywood anc
his three brothers, DR.. Hubert Haywood
and Messrs. A. w. and Edgar HayWoO
entered a closed carriage and were driver
to the Haywood home on New Bern Ave
nue., where the aged mother was awaiting
them.

Profession of "Askers."

Yet another professional for women
has come TO light in England, where,
instead Of employing canvassers to in
troduce new soaps, securing COM
pounds and such household matters,
they employ "aske,s." Realizing the
necessity of creating a demand for any
new article placed ON the market
women are paid to enter grocery stores
and ask for it. The same store is
covered by an entire corps of "askers,"
which means eight or nine demands
for the novelty. Finding that his
would-be customers will not be salts
fed with anything else, the sto: ekeeper
lays in a supply, and, of course, has to
work hard to dispose of it, thus doing
his share in pushing the new thing.
The ''askers" are paid fairly we'll, and
in ratio with the number of calls
made.-Chicago Post

CONOVER GETS PLUM.
Well Known Madison Architect Ac-

Mr. Conover is we'll known in

years has been civil engineering and

quite successful The Odd Fellows

Insanity On The Increase.

The state board of control has
audited the bills for the care of the
chronic insane in county asylums
during the year ending June 80,
and finds that the amount due the
thirty counties maintaining these
asylums is $401, 1902. OF this
amount the state pays 1906, 1912,
and counties having no asylums
pay $95, 036.S5. The cost of sup
porting the state at large patients.
who have no legal residence in any
county of the state, was $44, 9O4. So.
This expense is borne by the state
at large. The state assists in the
support of the chronic insane by
paying each county $3.50 per week
for each of It's insane patients. 1t
is estimated that the average cost
of supporting the insane is So per
week. The county in which the
unfortunate is a resident bears one
half of this expense, and the state
at large the other half.
There are thirty county asylums
in the state. Of these thirty the
Marathon county institution re-
ceives the largest sum, $22, 1913. 20.
The smallest sum appropriated is
to Monroe county, $4,000. Grant
county receives $12, 274.95.
