RIGHT KIND OF IMMIGRANTS
All Example of Their Value to the
State.

Our Governor is a staunch believer IN
the idea of founding all over our coun-
try immigration bureaus and filling ou-
land with mechanics, farmers and
others, citizens from other parts Of the
United States, who will settle among us
and become engrafted into u citizen
ship and sharers in u prosperity.
In our State a few miles from Nor
canton, there is a colony of Walden
SLAMS who a few years ago came from
the old country to that section n set
tied on DOOR land, only to transform it
into the richest part of the county
in a short while by their untiring
thrift and labors.
These people have been people OF
our State now for several years and SO
long as they have been in u midst
they have never been up in court, but
on the contrary they are l~aw-abidifg,
Industrious, and progressive citizens
This is only one example of the kind
of citizens who would make our State
and the entire South the most pros.

cOuntry.-Charlotte News.

Pennsylvania has been overturned and

treasurer is elected by 100000
ROosevelt's plurality of 2oo,O0O III
Ohio is likewise overturned. The gov

proximately 10000. The Democrats
will control both houses Of the legisla-

BLIND FOOTBALL PLAYERS
They Put Up a Remarkable Game
Against Their Opponents.

The wonderful football team of the
Kentucky University for the Blind in
its last game accomplished the remark
able feat of playing to a standstill the
team Of the Manuel freshmen. Neither
side scored, the blind boys holding
their opponents safe throughout. ALI
who saw the game agreed that the
blind boys Outplayed their opponents,
and bad it not been for the handicap
their attiiction imposed upon them
would have won an overwhelming vic
tory.
Professor John Gregory, who devel-
oped the blind team. says that if this
handicap could be balanced in some
way No team Of their own weight could
stand against the blind boys. The line
of the team, which is totally blind,
is absolutely irresistible. The oppos-
ing lines cannot stand a moment I'M
der the solid, smashing, tremendous
charge of the blind athletes.
Professor Gregory attributes this to
two things. First, the blind boys are
stronger than the average boys Of
their weight. Nature seems to COM
pensate in part for the atfiiction by
unusual strength. Second, seeing
nothing the blind player fears moth
ing. At the signal he plunges forward
with all his strength. No muscular
opponent with grim visage can daunt
him. He only knows that there is
somebody in front of him who must
be gotten out of the way and this he
proceeds to do.
The end plays bother the boys most.
Here their affliction is keenly felt,
and they do ~marvelously we'll to head
off the runners the way they do. No
member Of the blind team can do nor
than distinguish large objects dimly,
Professor Gregory is trying to devise
some way of offSetting the end plays.
The way the boys run with the ball
is remarkable. Speisberger. the to-
tally blind guard, made So yards
against Manual, the longest run to the
teams credit
The boys play straight football.
They require a round ball, as it must
bound true. and the opposing team
must call pass" when the ball is put
into play. Otherwise it is the regula-
ton game, and as these changes af-
ford no advantage the blind boys meet
their opponents on equal terms -

A shop girl in New York has beer
arrested charged with stealing money
from her employers, and she 'fesess
up, says that for two years she has
been stealing money for the man she
owes. But that is lot going to work.
She was perhaps infatuated with a
grafter-but no woman ever loved a
man who would take stolen money from
her-and 10 a. yer loved a woman
who would steal for her. We know
that Dickens pictured us a Nancy, and
said that she did exist-and that she
loved ,RH Skies, and as he portrayed
it. was unquestionably true-and she
loved him with a devotion that is only
equalled by a woman's love-but that

money to lavish On a man h say she

cuse for a sane person could make.
When they steal TO dress themselves
we know that pride and vanity has
them: when they steal for food to hold
their life we do not blame them: when
they steal from a half hundred things
for which women have stolen there
seems to be some mitisation-but
when a shop girl keeps up systematic
theft for a term of years and pleads
that she stole fer the man she loved
well. the man ought to be punished and
the girl set free. He was simply her

Is the real criminal-but the law will

CHARGES BIZ MISSIONARIES

called attention to the fact that ire
minister to Persia had acquitted him
self with credit TO his government.
This unusual tribute was reached
from Mr.. Pearson's successful efforts in
bringing to a settlement a claim OF an
American citizen against the Persian
government which had been held up .ol
years. 1t was even reported that the
President would probably promote Mr.
Pearson to a more important post, as
he result of this service.
While nothing could be learned a

with reference to these charges, thcr,
is reason for believing that the Presi
dent will be slow to take any acticl
unless they are Of a very serious char
acter.
The State department is not yer
much impressed with accusation
against diplomatic officers coming iron
missionaries, for it is a well establish

deavoring to make trouble for the min

GREAT WESTERN AGAIN
Another Sensational Suit by Stock
hOlders-Charges of WrOngdOings.

A special dispatch from Phoenix,
Arizona, brings news Of another sen
sational suit against the Great Western
Gold Company. The papers in the case
were recently filed 1t Phoenix where
the company was organized under the
laws Of Arizona, and the plaintiffs ara
w. H. Godair, and Edward j. Sill
stockholders and natives of Illinois.
Named as defendants in the com
pany are the Great Western Gold Com
papy, T. S. Henderson, Inomas Walsh,
S. G. Bauman, o. E. Adams, Andrew K
Fleming, c. K. Keller, M. E. Ditmar, Z.
S. Henderson & Company, Fred w
Pickett of the company, and another L.
S. Henderson & Company.
1t appears from the complaint That
the laws Of no State have been COM
Piled with by the company. The pres
ident, T.. S. Henderson, of st. Louis
who IA made the principle defendant
in a suit brought by two other stock
holders several weeks ago, is alleged
to have illegally appropriated money to
his W use. The complaint is very
long end charges President Henderson
with many wrong doings. Among the
allegations is one that Henderson keeps
On his person, so as to be constantly
prepared for any eventualities, about
100000 either in currency or certified
checks.
The Great Western Gold Company
was originally caritalized at $4,000.
900, it is remembered by Chronicle read
ers, but at a later meeting said to have
been held at Phoenix, the capital was
increased to s12, 900, 900. Stock Of the
company has been sold all over the
country through Henderson & Com
pany, acting as fiscal agents. The
greater part Of the money it is alleged
has been retained by Henderson lo1
commission and expenses. Altogether
it is charged that he has wrongfully
withheld about $4,000 of the CON-
pany's money.
The company owns the Garcia
mine, near Tucson. Arizona and The
A~fterthOught mine in Shasta county
California. The latter property, it is
said. would be profitable if properly
handled. Q
The plaintiffs desire that a receiver
be appointed for the company and
that the books be removed from st
Louis to Phoenix. The case will be
heard December 2nd.-The Charlotte
Chronicle.
