y. AND NJ. BAND BANQUET.
Instructor Il. L. HobcsOn Presented
With a Handsome Gold Watch
and Chain.

The second annual banquet of the
A. and Nj. College band took place
last night at Gierschs Cafe, and was
a great success, the entire band and
several invited guests being present.
The following menu was amply dis
coursed
Sailed Almonds Queen olives
Anchovies on Toast
PURGE of Tomato, Croutons.
Soft-Shell Crabs, Maryland.
Saratoga Potatoes. Sliced Tomatoes.
Chicken Patties, Green Peas.
Tenderloin of Beef Mushrooms.
New Potatoes. Cauliflower.

Neapolitan Ice-Cream.
Assorted Cake. Strawberries. Cream
Roquefort Bent Crackers.
Coffee. Cigars.
When the cigars and coffee came
around, Capt. +. e. Phelps, the popu-
lar commandant of the cadets, arose,
and after commenting upon the
splendid performance of the band
this season, paid very high tribute
TO Mr.. Z. T. Robson, the instructor,
ard gracefully presented him with Il
handsome gold watch and chain as a
slight token of the esteem and re-
gard in which he was held by the
entire band.
Mr.. Robson responded in brief
speech expressing his deep sense of
gratitude at the sentiment embodied
in the gift, as we'll as its intrinsic
worth.
Then short talks We're made by the
following members of the band:
Capt. H. l.. Alderman, First Lieuten-
ant. b. f. Huggins, Second Lieutenant
f Bagwell, First Sergeant II. E.
Cartwright Second Sergeant j. a.

that these band banquets must never
be discontinued.

The Pontiff Worried.
(Ry the Associated Press.

(By the Associated Press.)
Rome, May 21.-M. Nisard,, the
French Ambassador to the Vatican,
acting under instructions from Paris.
left Rome tonight for an unlimited
vacation, as a protest against what
France considers the indicate atti-
tude of the Vatican in compiling two
different notes concerning the visit of
President Loubet to Rome.
The Pope is greatly worried over the
comet between the Vatican and France
Today His Holiness suspended all pub
lie and private audiences and con-
ferred at length with the Papal Sec
rotary of State, Cardinal Merry Del
Val, who repeated to him what he had
said to NJ Nisard. He stated that
France had misunderstood his inten-
ton and that he had omitted the
phrase regarding the recall of the
Nuncio from the note to France out of
>cegard to that republic while he in
serted it in the notes to the other GOV
ernments. The missing phrase empha-
sized the firm determination fo the
Papacy to prevent Catholic sovereigns
from coming to Rome as guests of the
King of Italy.
Among the Cardinals there is con-
siderable feeling against the Secretary
and condemnation is expressed Of the
wa in which he has brought about an
almost official rupture with France.

SPENCER Is ENJOINED.
Forbidden to Collect More TaXes-Re-
lieved to be Republican Move.

Salisbury. n. c.. May 21-Sheriff
ID f. Julian, of Rowan county. to-
day served formal notice on the Off
Gals of Spencer, restraining the town
from the further collection of its taxes
for the past year. The action was
talleI. upon the affidavit of ID. c.
Eagle, a Nero liant of Spencer, who,
it is learned, alleges that the former
board Of aldermen assessed an illegal
rate Of tax for 1908; that the>rate is
il conflict with the general State laws
equalization that his associates in the
action have offered to nay their taxes
at the old rate; that the tax collector
refused TO accept the payments, and
that sail tax collector threatens to
levy md collect the whole amount
due on taxes.
The plaintiff. together with the
other parties to the action have en-
ployed John l.. Randleman, eX-chair-
man of the Rowan Republican eXecu
tive committee, and t. &. Linn, Esq,
of this city, to prosecute the defend
ants In the courts and the affair has
created quite a stir at Spencer. The
order is made returnable before Judge
Allen on May 3ist. at Statesville, at
which time Iredell Superior court will
be in session. Mr.. p. r. Carlton is
attorney for the town of Spencer. and
it is learned today that Senator John
S. Henderson and other prominent
lawyers of Salisbury will probably be
engaged to represent the defendants.
The move is regarded by many as
political trick with Republicans at
the bottom of it, the present board
of aldermen of Spencer being Demo-
cratic. The old rate of taxation prior
to last year was 6 cents on the 500
valuation and so cents on the poll,
but at the last session of the State
Legislature provision was made for
tie collection of 60 cents on the 800
valuation, and 81 on the poll, and it
is learned that the increase in rate is
what caused the action to be brought.
It is rumored on the streets here to-
day that there is talk of prosecuting
the plaintiff for perjury, as it is claim
ed that a number of the charges
sworn to in the affidavit can be easily

RALLY TO HEARST
PopuIist Chairman Says
He'd Receive That
Party's Support.
CBy the Associated Press.)

Louisville, KY, May 21.--The Times
today says:
j. A. Parker, chairman of the Ma
tional Executive Committee of the
Populist party said today in an IN
terview that Hearst would receive Inc
support of the Populists in kentuchy
and elsewhere.
Il speak for the nationa leaders OF
nv party when | say that we are for
Hearst" said Mr. Parker, His views
and principles agree with ours. He isd-
vocates certain principles for Whlch
we have been fighting for years. IL
the Democrats nominate him the Pop
uIist party will put out no ticket.
But does not the Populist party
meet in national convention in Spring
field on July A, before the Democrats
meet?"
Eyes, that is a fact replied Mr..
Parker. "but / am now advocating a
postponement of this date for two
weeks in order that we may know
whether the Democrats nominate
Hearst or whether they are able to
