Killed While Beating His Wife.

Rock Hill, Specialized Barnett,
a negro man, was shot by Beaufort
Sturges, a youg white farmer livin.
near here, Sunday morning about 2
O'Clock. The negro died some time
Sun6hy night and Sturges came TO
town and surrendered. From the cir
cumstances it would seem that the
killing was entirely jutifable and that
Sturges will be released on bond as
soon as the preliminaries can be CON-
plie6 with. The facts in the case are
substantially these: The negro who
was tenant of Sturges. got into a
row with his wife Sunday morning
and was beating her. The woman
raised a terrible outcry and her yells
of smurder, etc., awoke Sturges, who
dressed, took his. pistol and went out
to investigate. When he attempted
to make Barnett stop, the negro quit
beating the woman and cursed Stur-
ges for interfering drawing knife
and advancing upon him. Sturges
warned him not to come on him, and
when Barnett continued to advance
Sturges shot him. The bullet went
into his lungs. After lingering some
hours he died.

EDUCATORS GATHER
Entertained at Southern Pines,
North Carolina
WELCOMED BY TIE GOVERNOR
Northern Members of Conference Not
Likely to Go Away With Idea That
North Carolina or Any Southern
State Needs Help to Further Cause
Of Education If the Governors
Speech is Accepted. g

Southern Pines, N. c., Special
The great Southern Educational Con-
ference met here OH Tuesday, being
attended by several hundred dele
gates from different parts Of the
country. The address Of welcome
was made by Governor Glenn, and
was warmly applauded. Il
If the Northern members of the
Conference of Education. in the
South came here with the impression
that this State or the South needs
help in the education Of the people,
they will not go away with that i'm
preston, should they believe what
Governor Glenn told them in The
address of welcome. For at least an
hour he eulogized the State and the
section, dwelling upon its glorious.
history. lis resources, its wealth the
unparal]ele e....l of its industries
and IS advancement in education.
When toward the close Of his speech
he paused, took a deep breath and
said, 81 wish 1 could brag on i"
The packed house broke into roar
of laughter. "But the motto on her
seal forbids Dragging" he continue
ed, raising another laugh. "Our
motto is Esse Guam Vireri," that is,
1 had rather be than seem. 1 have
got another motto; / ONT know
whether the State will adopt it OF
not, but L am suggesting it, pos.
sumus; that is, we can, we are able. =.
"But North Carolina is no appli-,
cant for contribution or conferences, -
he declared vigorously, "if coupled
with the idea that we are not to edu-
cate our children according. to what
we feel in our hearts. No state in
our Southland would consider for a
minute accepting any aid, and con-
tributions Of money, any counsel IN
tended to bring about mixed schools. -
This statement was greeted with ap-
plause. The Governor did not make
any direct statement that his State
would resent the offer of Northern
charity, but three-fourths of his ex-
tended speech was an indirect argu-
ment to that effect. He said

t5rney Jerome declared that there
we're many other persons accused of
homicicij awaiting trial and Thaw
would have to take his turn with the
rest. AS TO q possible change OF venue
both the district attorney and counsel
for Thaw declared they would make
no such move. Thaw's attorneys will
have conference with the prisoner
to decide upon their next step. They
may make an early application for
bail. Mr.. jerome said he would stren-
uously oppose it. He added the be-
lief that as seven of The jurors had
voted for "guilty" his opposition
probably would be successful. In
that event Thaw has another long

Disagreement No Surprise.
!. The scenes attending the announce

agree uopn any sort of verdict were
robbed of any theatriealism by the
genera. belief that after their long de-
liberation and the reports of wide
division of sentiment, the jurors could
make no other report than one of dis
agreement.

o-thesehool CHILDREN Of the United
States.
ssArbor Day (which: means simply
s Tree Day.') is now observed m every
State in our Union nT7and mainly in
the schools. Att various times from
January to December, but chiefly in
this month Of April you give day
or parl of a day to special exercise
and perhaps to actual tree planting,
in recognition Of the limp ortanees OF
trees to us as a nation, and of what
$ they yield in adornment, comfort and
useful products tos the communities
In which you live.
SIT is well that you should cele-'
brate your Arbor Day thoughtfully,
for within the lifetime the nations
need Of trees will become serious. We
of5an older generation can: get? along!
with what we have, though with grow.
ing hardship; bat in your full man
hood and womanhood you will want

we have and the Improvement, of,

to prepare yourselves now for the
du.ics and responsibilities which will
ssall upon you later, if you do 2 not
learn the things which you will need
to know when your school lhys are
over. .yor will suffer the consequence.
So any nation which in its youth

to plant new ones ycu are acting the
