MANY LAUGHED AT FRENc HES

AIphonse and CASTOR at Theatre
Here
Quite large and seemingly well
pleased audience welcomed those ultra
polite garcons, Alphonse and CASTOR,
at the theatre last night. There was
plenty to provoke a round of smiles
and the audience was kept in a good
humor throughout A bevy of pretty
girls in singing and dancing parts ad-
ded zest to the occasion. In the very
midst of the play the dread fire alarm
whistle gave succession of unearthIy
shrieks, but fortunately the audience
kept their seats and did not stampede.

Blamed Himself
for Girls Death
Miss Retta Deschane Killed
in a Runaway.
Merritt Moore, the Driver,
then Commits Suicide.

Miss Retta, oldest daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. Robert Deschane was killed
In a runaway near here last Sunday,
md Merritt Moore, considering him.
Vself blameable for the accident immed-
lately committed suicide.
The accident Occurred last Sunday
afternoon between the homes OF the
two families near the Boyne Falls
road, about five mics from this city.
Merritt Moore was working for a farm
er in the Behling district and on Sun
day morning borrowed team OF
mustangs and wagon to drive over to
his parents, Mr.. aud Mrs. Joseph
Moore. While there the two Deschane
girls came over to visit with the fam
lily and when ready to return, Moore
took them in his wagon and started
for the Deschane house, which Is
about half milo distant and connect
ed by an angling farm-road running
through; q new field full or stumps.
On the way they crosSed a raviDe and
corduroy road, some l5 to 20rods from
the Deschans house. Near the ravine
aEtump was blazing; this scared the
team and they turned off from the road
into the field and became unmanage-
able. Young Moore saw the danger
and, calling to the young ladies TO
Jump, bounded off the wagon. Clara,
the youngest girl, jumped and landed
safely. Retta had q pet dog on the
wagon, and she stopped to throw 1t
of, but in doing this sh' sacrificed her
own life. The team ard wagon we're
going at a terrific speed and the wag'
on struck stump. Overturnlng same,
throwing the girl out and under OF the
wheels, which passed over her head
killing her almost instantly. The &C.
cident was seen at the Deschane house
and the members of that household
ran out To give assistance. Young
Moore picked up the body OF the al
most lifeless girl, but the others ap-
peGSing on the scene he turned the
body over to them and went after team.
Tying same to a fence he went over o
his home and took down his rifle from
the wall. 1t Is evident that he
thought the gun was not loaded for a
cartridge was found lying on the table
which was taken by him from belt.
The rifle was loaded with No. 4S
short cartridge and Moore took same
out Of the house, went down few
steps TO the ground when ne placed
the muzzle to his forehead. discharged
the gun. killing him instantly. No
one was at the Moore house when the
suicide occurred and the body laid for
some time before being discovered.
Coroner DR.. +. A. Foster was sum-
moned and found the body OF Moore
lying face down ward with the gun
beneath. The entire top OF the head
~aecompletely shattered by the charge
and MOore's hat blown several feet from
the body. A peculiar incident Of the
suicide was in the fact that he wore
his mittens throughout the affair.
The Coroner Instituted an inquest
and found that the death was due Il
his own act.
Both bodies was buried. Wednesday

rye OF the remains. The funeral serv
ices of Miss Deschane were held in til,

The Torrens Land System.

A Washington County, Iowa, COR
respondent writes:
"I have always considered Wal
laces' Farmer as a Waterman On the
tower for the farmer, both in war;
ing against danger and in adVocat-
ing the beneficial; and the Farmer
has spoken highly of the Torrens
system of land registry in operation
in the adjoining States. Do you not
think that it would be a good thing
for the farmers, irrespective of party
affiliations, to pledge their candidates
for the Legislature to the enactment
of this law and thus secure it's pas
sage the coming winter? The oppo-
sition is certainly organized to Sc
cure the defeat of this measure, the
passage of which would surely bene-
fit the Iowa farmer and land owner.
I know of no one better able to reach
the farmers of Iowa than you, or one
who has their welfare more at heart"
1t would scarcely be wise to pledge
candidates for the Legislature to the
enactment of this law, but it would
certainly be wise to pledge them to
give it thorough study and investiga-
ton. We believe that the Torrens
system, with notifications adapted
TO various States, will become univer-
sal in time. States have been slow
The progressive farmer. [volume] (Winston, N.C.) 1886-1904, 1904-05-24

to adopt it, but once adopted it stays.
The forces opposed to it are, of
course, the real estate ~abstractors
and lawyers whose support comes
largely from the examination of I'll
ties. The reason why these classes
are opposed to it is because it will
surely cut off their bread and butter.
Without going into the details of
it, it is perhaps enough to say that
the Torrens system proposes to set
tie once and for all time the question
of title and permits the conveyance
of title or the encumbrance of the
property by mortgage in a method as
simple as indorsing payment on the
back of a note. 1t will take time, of
course, and perhaps a good deal of
legal procedure to thus quiet and
settle the titles properly, but it is
the right thing to do. In the course
of another quarter of a century the
cost of examining titles Will become
exceedingly oppressive and burden
some to the farmer, and a short cut
like the Torrens system, which abso-
lutely quiets all defects and clouds of
the past and provides for an mex
pensive way of transferring or en-
numbering property would certainly
be a boon to the farm interests. Leg
islators who will once<thoroughly ex-
anime the system with clear heads
and honest hearts will not need any
pledging to support it. The great
trouble is that comparatively few
members of the Legislature know
anything about the law and a great
many of them have perhaps never
heard of it.-Wallaces' Farmer.

A commendable Movement.

Here and there throughout our
Southland war has been declared on
idleness.
North Carolina has long been very
strict in this respect, and vagrants-
people who loaf about without any
visible means of support-have been
placed under the ban and are dealt
with in & strictly business-like way.
The following is the code provi-
sion in this respect:
"Any person able to labor, with no
apparent means of subsistence, who
neglects to apply himself to some
honest occupation for support of
himself and family; or if any person
shall be found spending his time in
dissipation or gaming, OF sauntering
about without employment, or en-
deavoring to maintain himself Or his
family by any unlawful means, shall
be deemed a vagrant, and guilty of a
misdemeanor, and be punished by a
fine not to exceed fifty dollars, or by
imprisonment not to exceed thirty
days, and the offender shall be cog
nizable only before a justice of the
county in which it is committed, who
may release the party on his giving
recognizance, with or without secur-
ity, for his Industrious and peacea-
BILE department for n year or less,
from date thereof, or may also i'm
pose on him a punishment not to ex-
coed that above mentioned."-Code,
Sec. 1884.
The present Legislature of Geor,
gia is also after the idlers. They are
being rounded up and most either
work or travel. if they have not "due
license" to loaf.
We are glad that our local authori
ties are strict ih this matter. There
is too much work to be done down
here for a band of loafers to have
any place in u system. The coun-
try is prosperous, Notwithstanding a
temporary setback, and it needs all
it's available labor.-Kinston Free
Press.

County Pride.

In conversation with an observant
man not long ago he remarked that
the very names of certain counties
In North Carolina carry with them a
peculiar interest, wholly foreign to
the names of other counties. "For
instance" he remarked, "who can
speak the names of these counties
without something of a thrill: Scot
land, Guilford, M~ecklenburg, Robe
son, Buncombe 2-and there are many
more that belong in Ihis list. But
who is ever stirred at the mention of
Davie, Davidson, Moore, Wake or
Columbus 90 We believe there is
something in what the man said, and
we believe there is a reason for it..
We have lived in Davidson County
for years, and while it is a good
county and contains many excellent
people, there has never been cult
waited a wholesome and healthful
county pride that is absolutely essen
tial among the citizens, if the county
is to take the high place occupied by
those we have named. A citizen of
Scotland would be mortified if he
were put down as from Robeson, and
a Robesonian would be equally indig-
nant with Scotland after his name.
No citizen of Mecklenburg would
sail under the banner of Guilford,
while a Guilford man would scorn to
be called a Mecklenburger. But a
Davidson citizen would not feel out
ragged to be calssed with the Ran
dolph people, and a man from Moore
would not fight if he were put.down
as from Montgomery. We heartily
believe the prominent" counties are
so largely because of the loyalty and
patriotic pride of their citizenship;
and the more of this love of home we
have the stronger and better we make
our home sections. This may look
like a small matter, but there is a
good deal in it when we come to
think it over.-Charity and Children.
