Among the ladies who recently at
tended the National Congress of
Mothers in Washington were two
typical Southern women-Mrs. Kate
Waller Barrett, OF Virginia, and Mrs.
Robert X. Gotten, of North Carolina.
Mrs. Barrett, whose home is at Alex
andria, Va, is widely known for her
unremitting labors in behalf Of erring
girls and unmarried mothers. As
national superintendent Of the Flor
ence Crittenden Missions, or rescue
homes, she wields n great influence
for good. She is national recording
secretary of the National Congress
OF Mothers. Mrs. Gotten, who resides
on an estate at Bruce, Pitt county,
\. G., began her public work as a
lady manager at the Chicago fair,
both on the national and on the State
boards. She was one OF the founders
of the National Congress of Mothers;
the first recording secretary and edi-
tor of the magazine while they pub
lished it. She is a Virginian by birth,
college bred and OF literary tastes,
which have found their outlet in a
book of poems. AS president OF the
Women Club of Greenville, the near.
est town, Mrs. Gotten is helping the
women of the South to an enlarging
view. Her chief interest is the Mother 8

CLEVER FORGERY DETECTED.
Value OF Railroad Tickets Raised
Iwenty-Seven Times.
st. Louis Republic, Feb. oath.

81. LOUIS Republic, Feb. Oath.
Joint Agent J. H. Norton is in posses
sion OF one Of the cleverest pieces OF ticket
manipulation which has confronted his
bureau in the last year. Mr., Norton is Of
the opinion that a gang Of forgers are at
work In this city. He has communicated
with the police and detectives are now
investigating the evidence which he has
placed in their hands.
An excursion ticket to q local point in
Missouri by a railroad entering this city.
and valued at III 40 on account of the
trade excursion, was raised by skillful
use OF chemicals and plugs to a passage
Tor two persons to Elk City, Ok, and
valued at $3S. 20. 1t was raised twenty
seven times it's value
The workmanship was so accomplished
that only the use of special light enabled
the railroad officials to discover the for
gerry. Both dates OF the expiration Of
the ticket and the indelible stamp on the
back were obliterated by acids and the
color OF the ticket changed from a pink
shade to white. The agents name was
erased and another substituted, with the
value OF the ticket and the raised place OF
destination
The ticket was sold at a local broker s
Office, against which Mr.. Norton states
he has evidence which will convict the
brokers' staff of fogery The two persons
who were shadowed while in the act of
purchasing the ticket, We're taken from
the train at East st. Louis and brought
back to the city.
Yesterday Louis ID. Tillman, local
broker, was taken into custody on a
bench warrant issued by Justice With
row. Harry Casparry and Hugh Testard
are also charged with manipulating
brokers' tickets. Casparry is now on his
way to this city from Portland
Indictments were returned against boil
these men by the January Grand Jury
1t is said that Testard is now i'm British
Columbia.
Joint Agent Norton, during the World :
Fair, Instituted an active campaign
against the brokers who swarmed to this
city to take advantage Of the brokers
law in force here Several thousand
spurious tickets were seized by Mr. Norton
in various Offices in Broad dway and along
Market street in front OF the depot Many
convictions Of forgery resulted, and for a
time the scalpers' business in this city
operated only under much difficulty

GATEWAYS OF THE WORLD.
Pacific Ocean Destined to Become the
Greatest Trade Route.
Washington Post, 25th.

Washington Post, 25th.
Col. John McElroy entertained a
large and enthusiastic audience in the
hall of the Eastern High School last
evening in the course Of free lectures
to the people. He took for his sub
ject. "Gateways of the World''
'"The control of the trade routes
with the far East" said Col McElroy
:'has led to q large portion of the
wars of the world, and upon these
trade routes rose in ancient times the
great cities OF Ninevah, Babylon,
Alexandria, Cairo, Athens, Rome and
Byzantium AS the center of popu
lation moved westward, Venice and
Genoa arose in medieval times. Spain
and Portugal, in trying to secure a
share in this great Eastern trade,
discovered America and the Cape of
Good Hope.
'Immediately after the whole face
of the world changed, and instead of
the Mediterranean being the principal
highway OF the world, the Atlantic
Ocean became that highway and the
Mediterranean sank into a byway.
Venice and Genoa decayed, while
Antwerp, Amsterdam, London, and
Liverpool rose. We are row con-
fronted with a revolution as great as
that which followed the discovery of
the Cape OF Good Hope. The extern
sion of the boundaries OF the United
States to the Pacific Ocean and the
ready communication by railroads
has made the 85,OOO,OOO people OF
the United States close neighbors to
the SOO,OOO,OOO people of the far
East, and their trade must come this
way, making the Pacific Ocean the
great highway of the world instead
of the Atlantic Ocean, and building
up our cities, particularly Seattle,
San Francisco, and Los Angeles, to
even higher greatness than attained
by Amsterdam, Antwerp, London
and Liverpool.
''The wise forethought OF our gov
ernment in acquiring Alaska, Hawaii,
Samoa, and the Philippines has made
the Pacific Ocean an American sea.
Over this new great highway OF the
world, over this broad avenue ofcom-
merce between the 81, 900, ,OOOpeople
OF the United States and the SOO,-
100000 OF the storied East, over this
expanse of land and wa ,er, compris-
ing one-sixth of the entire surface OF
the globe, waves our sacred and beau
tiful Star Spangled Banner, with a
power and a glory unequaled by that
OF any flag ever kissed by the sun
light of heaven"

HENDERSON. N. c., THURSDAY, APRIL


Laurinburg Is. CD Correspondence Charlotte
Observer, March 11th, 1905.
On Monday a plant for the manu-
facture OF sand-lime brick, located
near Gibson station, this county, be-
gan operations in earnest. With the
successful launching OF this enterprise
this spot, which appeared to be only
a barren waste, will De made to serve
future generations to a good pur-
pose. The mill is located about three
miles North Of Gibson, on the Gibson
branch Of the Seaboard Air Line
railroad, at which has always been
known to the Oldest residents as s'the
green pond" The pond is remark
able in some respects for the peculiar
ly white sand that is in and around
it. In area it covers some three or
four hundred acres. 1t is n theory
that some time in the world 8 history
this pond was an active volcano and
that the deposits on its banks came
from the depths far from the earth's
surface. However that may be, there
is no questioning the existence at
this point of as pure white sand as it
is possible to find anywhere. Chemi-
cal analysis in fact has shown it TO
contain more than 80 per cent. OF
silicate lime. There is only one body
of sand anywhere in the United States
that is so nearly pure Us this, and it
is located on the Pacific coast, with
surrounding very similar to those to
be found here. With such a bounti-
full supply of something supplied by
nature that was so free from foreign
substances, it is no wonder that there
comes manner in which it may be
utilized,
The sand is first cleared of all for
eign substances, such as pebbles and
roots and elevated to the third story
of the building. 1t is then carefully
weighed and placed in what is known
as the mixer" This mixer is steam
jacketed cylinder, resembling very
closely the heaters used in the cotton
oil mills for cooking the meats. The
sand in these machines is kept in
constant motion until thoroughly
dried. When perfectlypulverized and
free from all moisture, a slNall per
cent. of crushed lime is added and
the whole kept in motion until per-
fectly mixed. The theory is that in
this way each particle of sand is en-
tirely coated with the lime before eny
moisture is added. TO the mass then
is added a small percentage of hot
water, intermingled with live steam,
which dampens the lime and causes
the particles to adhere when brought
under the influence Of the powerful
presses. From the mixer the sand
lime finds it's way by gravity to a
storage vat, from which it is fed also
| by gravity to the ''moulds," where
it is formed in Philadelphia-sized
| brick.
The presses are powerful machines
! built to withstand the heavy duty
required OF them. Each brick is COM
pressed with a power equal to more
than three hundred thousand pounds
on its entire surface. As the brick
come from the presses they are hard
enough to be handled easily before
the final process of drying. When
formed by the presses the bricks are
placed on cars and conveyed to what
is known as the 'drving" or "harden-
ing" cylinders In these they remain
about ten hours at a high tempera-
ture obtained from live steam, after
wL.ch they are ready for shipment.
