CORNERSTONE TO Be LAID.
New Main Street Church viii Have
Interesting Exercises.


The laying of the corner stone
of new Main street M. E. Church
took place today. The exercises
of the occasion were interesting.
The pastor, Rev. 7. A. Smoot,
had charge of the ceremonies,
and was assisted by Rev. j. B.
Hurley, presiding Elder of this
district.
The exercises were according
to the ritual of the Methodist
Church, and much interest was
shown by the ministers and citi-
zens of Durham in general, es-
pecially the members of. the
church.
The cost of this new church,
when completed and furnished
will be near to $500, 900 and will
be the prettiest church in the
city, with an ideal location and
surrounding. The building, which
has been in course of construction
for sometime, is now getting
in just such shape as to give an
idea of what the finished product
will be. When completed the
congregation will have a struc'
ture that they may we'll fee
proud of.

We are not complaining es-
pecially, but it does seem that
Durham would accomplish a
great deal more if her business
men would join hands with all
citizens to make her what it is
possible to make. Other towns
with much less money than Dur
ham do great things and are GO
ing forward rapidly enough to
make things hum, while Durham
is satisfied because great things
are being accomplished, when il
surroundings and environments
were considered Durham is not
doing much in the way Of great
progress.

STANDARD OIL ADMITS
VIOLATING CHILD LAWS
Fails in It's Attempt to Implicate
New Jerseys Attorney
General.
Tries to Squeeze out of Accus.
ation-Blame Placed Where
it Belongs.

NEWARK, N. j.. Oct. 3.-Josiah
Stryker, an assistant in the office of
Attorney General McCarter, in a state
ment made, denies that he entered into
any agreement with Col. Charles W,
Fuller of counsel for the Standard Oil
company to withhold information con-
corning the settlement of number of
suits brought by the state department
of labor against the company for vio-
lating the child labor law in its Bay
onne plant by employing boys under
the legal age limit of IA years.
Col. Fuller admitted Wednesday that
on behalf of the company he had &C.
knowledge a technical, violation of the
law and agreed to confess judgment.
stryker admits that Col Fuller desired
to have the mater kept quiet. to which,
he said, he would not agree.
On the contrary, Stryker declares
that he distinctly told Col. Fuller that
as the institution of the suits was a
matter of public record, the public
was entitled to know Of the disposition
made of them. Stryker says he In
formed the colon9 that if information
was sought about the suits he would
give it, including the fact that the
company had acknowledged only that
it was technically guilty.
