SPOKE OUT In Meeting
A. III. HUDDESTON DECLARED WOMEN
HAD TOO MUCH STYLE.
Incident of Quaker Meeting at Third
Friends Church Created Mild
Sensation.

1T was interesting service in many
ways held yesterday morning at the Third
Friends Church Walnut street near
fremont, in HaughUile The meeting was
given with the idea of having an old-time
Quaker meeting. Such was the nature of
the first part of the service but as one
member expressed il, the spirit moved too
rapidly after the meeting had been on for
some time and the gathering changed it's
characteristics.
Near the close man In the rear OF the
room, who said his was A. III. Hud-
deston, and that he was a member of the
church, arose and caused a mild sensation
by declaring that the Quaker meeting
had turned out TO be nothing more than
Baptist service with all the attributes of
such a gathering except the shouting. 1.-The
men are all right" said Hudeston, but
the women have too much style about
them" The women present did not appear
in the least ruffied over the fling of the
speaker. who continued to explain that
some might not approve of his speaking so
plainly but that be believed every Christian
man should vote as he preached, and
prayed
AN ODD SERVICE.
The pastor of the church, Rev. Thomas
Chapel, is out of the city attending re-
vival, and the service yesterday morning
was in charge of John ID. Sherman, of the
First Friends Church, who thought that
an oldtime Quaker meeting would be
good thing.
The men sat on one side of the church and
the women across the aisle. All was quiet
in the little wooden church and the rude
organ in one corner remained undisturbed,
save during the rendering of a single solo.
The persons present had no leader. five
members occupying seats in front but all
having the same voice in the meeting Dur
ing the early part of the morning. before
the meeting assumed the lively air when tes-
timonials became so frequent, one could
observe the Quaker-like atmosphere that
enveloped the meeting. For several min
utes there would be abs lutte silence with
only the distant whistle If locomotive or
the sounds of cheering from nearby base
ball game 20 remind one of the busy world
without. There were frequent prayers after
which, without announcement, some one
would begin a song which would be taken
up joyously.

THE AMERICAN CITY.


Harper's Weekly.
Some recent statistics have emphasized
the fact that, among our centers of urban
population, Philadelphia is pre-eminently
the American city. This is not so surpris-
ing when we call to mind that it had more
native Americans to start with. Not only
but for at least two decades afterward.
Philadelphia contained more inhabitants
than any other American town. As early
as 1910, the population of Philadelphia
lIl2IO. According To the census of 1900,
Philadelphia contained |, 1851, of whom
aSS, 357 were native and 2953i0 foreign born.
In not single ward of the city are there
more foreigners than natives. OF the no.
200 persons of foreign parentage living in
Philadelphia, some have both parents for
eign; others, either father or mother for
eign. OF those inhabitants both of whose
parents were born in the same foreign
country, 22l $50 claim Ireland as the birth
place of their parents; 1928, Germany;
5000. England; 1870. Russia, and 1850,
Italy.
1t will be observed that Philadelphia re-
ceives a far smaller fraction of the immi-
grafton from Italy and Russian Poland
than does New York city. Ii is further TO
be noted that. of the native-born population
OF Philadelphia (99s. $50. S44,54S born
in Pennsylvania, 3O,97s in New Jersey, % ls4
In Maryland, 1893 in New York, 20,6Ss in
Virginia and 1855 in Delaware. Compare
lively few residents of Philadelphia were
born in England the Western States.
That is to say. Philadelphia does not ex-
ercise upon those sections of country
the magnetic attraction exerted by New
York. On the other hand. il is significant
that of the foreign-born males, twenty-one
years and over, less than 10 per cenE are
unable To speak English. This shows that
the assimilation is performed in Philadel-
phia with exceptional energy and rapidity.
OF foreign-born residents in Philadelphia,
only 65.3S4 are naturaliZed. Ii follows that
the political influence of the so-called "for-
eign vote is insignificant OF the popula-
ton of voting age, not more than Is per
cent. is of foreign birth, and even of these
voters four-ffths have been in the United
States more than ten years and nearly one
half more than twenty years. All the more
shame to Philadelphia that corruption and
fraud should be deeply rooted In the munich
pal government. The American city ought
TO exhibit a far better municipal record
thar New York, though. as matter of
fact, the latter city has elected two reform
mayors in the last decade This. although
New York contained. according TO the last
census. 1,27o,0So inhabitants OF foreign birth.

what will there be left for them when
they are grown up!' exclaimed Mrs. Old
School, as she listened to an account of one
of the elaborate entertainments given in
honor of a visiting schoolgirl.
why. nowadays lots OF the Detroit chill
dren of twelve and thirteen feel quite in
suited If they are invited to any thing SO
simple rs an old-fashOned tea party The
practice that certain of the smarter society
women have instituted of giving regular
formal dinners to their little girls before
they are out of short dresses has brought
things to pretty pass. If dinner is not
decked out with all the elaboration of flow
ers, candles and ribbons and it's courses
are not as many and dainty as those of
their parents, the girls and boys feel that
the affair has been failure. Then they
have cotillons, too, just like their older sis
tiers. They stay up dancing until after
midnight, and the favors are just as ex-
pensive and as novel as those which the
debutantes receive.
"These up-to-date children have box
parties with suppers after them and they
give luncheons and dinners at the various
smart clubs of the city. Tell me what there
will be new or entertaining to them when
they finally enter the real world of society?
They will be so tired of il ALL the poor
little things. The gloss of innocent pleas
ures will be worn off, and ten to one a lot of
them will seek excitement i'm things that are
neither innocent nor harmless"

sinners in the northern part of this coun-
ty, in what is known as Owlsboro. are
running things with high hand and from
what can be learned the revenue officers
are doing little or nothing to break up
the lawless element in that section.
Sometime ago the home of ]. A. Kim
ball, a white man, was attacked by some
six or eight men, considerable damage be-
ing done, the men finally pouring oil on
the house and setting it on fire. The story
of this lawless act was sent out from
here at the time. Now another warning
has been given another man i'll that To-
cality, the warning being in the shape Of
a coffin which was left at his door. On
the lid of the coffin was the following
significant warning: You had better
never report another still"
The good people in that locality are be-
coming alarmed over the situation. They
charge that the revenue officers slip into
the community, destroy beer take away
the still but never make an effort to
arrest the violators of the law In many
cases stills have been known to be in
operation on the same foundation the
following day after the officers raided the
plant short while ago the revenue of
ficcrs went to that section, captured u
still and carried it off The next day
another still was in operation on the
same foundation and if it was not the
same still it was one exactly like the
one taken away. Two days later a crowd
OF revenue officers from Greensboro found
the plant, cut up the still and burned
everything that would burn. Since then
there has not been another still in that
immediate section. There are several
crowds of raiders who operate in that
section and but one crowd cuts up the
still and destroys the plant as the gov
eminent requires.
There are a number of Illicit Whiskey
rakers in that section, who violate the law
almost openly, threaten the lives of those
they suspicion as being irformers, and
yet there is no effort TO arrest the men
and put a stop to the nefarious business.
The whole blame for the lawlessness is
at the door of the revenue officers in
this seton, because if the violators were
arrested and sent to court it would put
a stop to the open handed business.
If facts are as stated to your CORE
'spondent by good people living in that
section IN investigation by the govern
ment would not be out of order. Some
thing should be done.

Goldsboro, N. c., Sept. 1.-THE Duplin
county jury who tried Dan Teachey for
the murder of Bob Rivenbark in Kenans-
Vile last week, brought in a verdict
Of murder in the first degree on Satur-
day evening at six O'Clock and the
presiding judge sentenced Teachey to be
hanged on the second day of October.
Counsel for Teachey gave notice of APP
peal to the Supreme court. The case
occupied four days of the court las2
week. Teachey was brought to this city
again yesterday and placed In jail. While
awaiting his trial to come off he
lad broken jail in Kenansville and the
sheriff did not care to give Teachey an
other opportunity to gain his freedom.
The strange part of the story Is that
he should have come in and given him
self up to the sheriff as he did. He
expected to prove an abb, but the evil
dcnce was too strong against him. He
followed Rivenbark up along the road and
shot him at the home of a negro woman
with whom they were both intimate. The
prosecution had the dying mans declara
ton that it was Teachey who shot him
and three eye-witnesses to the tragedy.
George Daniels, the man who Waylald
and shot and killed Will Maxwell in Du-
pin county last week, was brought to
this city and placed in jail on Saturday
night because Of the unsafe condition OF
the Dupln county Jail. Daniels admits
the killing and says he did not know what
else to do; that he had ordered Max

that he continued his visits and persisted
