PROF. III. Il. HOLMES DEAD.
IIa IIaId the Chair of English at ElOn
ColIege-Life Rich with
Promise.
Especial to News and Observer

fSpecial to News and Observer
Franklinton, N. c., Aug. 13.-Prof.
II r. Holmes of the Chair of Engllsn
at Elon College, is dead. passing away
at the home of his father. Mr.. X. k
Holmes. near this place on WedneS-
day night. His death followed vio-
lent attack of typhoid. Unconscious
ness soon supervened and the last
great change came quickly thereafter.
Professor Holmes had been in
charge of the Department of English
at Elon for five years. He was a
graduate of the State University
where as a pupil he had achieved
distinction, and he had recently been
awarded a scholarship at Harvard.
In order that he might enjoy the add
vantages of study there the trustees
of Elon had granted him years
absence. His life was full of rich
promise. His talents were varied.
He filled with eminent ability every,
position to which he was appointed.
And his death will be felt as dis
tinct loss. not only to Zion College,
but to the whole State.
Professor Holmes leaves a father,
with many friends are weeping tears
that only God can wipe away.
The funeral service was conducted
at the home place by Rev. j. L. Foster
of Raleigh. who was Professor
Holmes pastor, and by DIR. Staley. of
Suffolk, Va, president of Elon Col
lege. A very large attendance gath
cred at the home to witness the SER
vices and pay the last tribute of re-
spect and the deepest sympathy is
felt for the bereaved family.

SCRATCH PLUMBERS
No Openings for Solder Workers
i'm Minnesota Towns.

Town clerks Of Minnesota, in reply
Ing to circular recently sent out by
State Labor Commissioner O,DonneH.
are sending in replies, in which they
say that there are openings for almost
any profession or trade save that Of
the plumber. No town official has as
yet had the temerity to say that his
town is looking for a plumber to To-
cate in its midst" and the labor com
missioner is still waiting to find an
opening for a plumber seeking a new
field.
Under date of April 80, the labor
commissioner sent circulars to town
clerks in Minnesota asking them to
communicate to the commissioners Of
fee such mechanical or mercantile
openings as they might think existed
in their town. Replies are being re-
ceived with every mail and the clerks
specify Touring mills, creameries, gen.
eral merchandise stores, blacksmith
shops, Gaming and tile factories, a
shirt ans overall factory wholesale
fruit and wholesale liquor stores, cold
storage plants and almost the entire
list of modern business ventures. But
nobody wants the plumber to move to
his town, judging from the replies.
The labor commissioner will include
the replies in his forthcoming annual
report to the governor. but pending
that time he declines to disclose the
towns wanting new Industries to the
curious.

Old ordinance on the ground that the
company has not operated under ii, for
more than thirteen years.
The suit is brought with q view Of

the city by the street car company for
the purpose of determining the com

the fact that he had suffered a bruise
