states, and 1t is reported on good au-
thority that the North Carolina chick
ems licked the sandlappers to the tune
of seven out Of five. AS no one
from Gastonia was present to witness
the fight this score is not verified,
but at any rate some Gastonia folks
know about 1t. -. Mr.. Dorie Craig,
an employee of the Page company,
was the victim of a most distressing
accident Wednesday afternoon when
he had the misfortune to have MS
right arm broken, the bone crushed
and the flesh badly lacerated. The
limb was caught by a set screw while
Mr.. Craig was engaged in work at
one of the machines in the shop. The
injured man was at once removed 10
the office of DR.. c. E. Adams up
town and the wound was dressed,
Drs. Sloan and Reid assisting. Though
very badly mangled, Mr. Craig re-
fused to have the arm amputated,
hoping that 1t can be saved. Mr..
Craig has many friends who learned
with regret of the accident he had
sustained and who hope that he will
entirely recover from the effect Of 1t.
-Four Gastonians went to Char
lotte yesterday to test the value OF
the mad stone. They were Misses
Estelle and Kate Jenkins, the young
daughters of Mr.. John Jenkins, who
lives near the Loray mill, on the north
side of the railroad; Mr.. Jas. Howell
and the young son Of B. w. Spratt,
who lives in the western section OF
town. All four were bitten Tuesday
by the rabid dog belonging to Mr..
Howell, which was later killed. We'd
nesday Mr. Spratt took his young son
to Charlotte and the maidstone was
applied, adhering for fifty minutes.
Yesterday morning the two girls. Mr..
Howell, Mr.. Spratt and the latter's
son went to Charlotte for the same
purpose. The young people were all
bitten on the arms, none of their
wounds being very serious. The dog
also attacked cat and literally tore
II to pieces.

SHE'D WAIT For HIS RETURN.-A
Philadelphia clergyman was talking
about the late Sam Small.
Il once heard him speak," he said
and his humor and eloquence i'm
pressed me deeply.
He had a happy knack Of illustra-
ton He wanted. l remember, to IL
lustrate the frailty that is a part of
even the best characters, and he told
a story about a brave young soldier.
This soldier, he said, enlisted in the
Spanish American war, and he fought
like lion for his country. The firm
he had worked for. pleased with the
record he was making for himself,
told his wife that all the time he was
away they would pay half his wages
TO her.
Accordingly at the end Of the first
week the young woman called at the
office, and the head of the firm handed
her SO.
She looked at the money. and her
face clouded over.
Mine dollars she said.
Yes said the head. a little hurt;
that is just half. I'm sorry you are
not satisfied
1T isn't that I'm not satisfied said
the young woman, but all along he's
been telling me that his pay was only
sl4 a week. Wait till he gets home!

Whittier as q Casuist.

The extreme d'7taste of the modest
Quaker poet, John Greenleaf Whittier,
for foolish hero worship, and the skill
which he attained in politely eluding
too enthusiastic admirers, have been
exemplified in many anecdotes. Even
now, however, new ones occasionally
come to light. One such recently re-
lated tells how two women of the type
at once sentimentally gushing ana
overconfident of their own importance
visited Amesbufy to seek the poet In
his home.
They went astray in their search FOR
his house and hustled into a smaii
general store to be redirected. The
clerk. smiling. little queerly, inform
ed them that the Whittier house was
near by-but a few steps round the
corner.
One of the women, big, horio'
overdressed being with languishins
ewes. caught the smile and clasped her
hands with a rapt air.
.'Oh don't you think he'll see US!
she demanded. He simply must!
We've heard he doesn't like to but ne
must; we won't go away till he does
We've thought up ever so many Things
we want to ask him."
The clerk still smiling, glanced cas-
ually toward a quiet man in snao-
owy corner sitting on a barrel, sur
rounded by a group of other leisureiy
customers. They had all been talk
ing politics together, village-fashloh'
when the strangers came in.
Think he will?" said the clerk.
well" replied the man on the BAR
rel. hesitatingly, thee knows Green
leaf does not find 1t easy to refuse
lady. think perhaps he will-if he Is
at home"
The women hustled away again, ex-
cited and expectant. and chuckle
went around among the laughing men.
The man on the barrel, with a trace
Of apology in his tones, rose from his
perch to go. =,
''They will not waste five minutes
he murmured, 1T Is such little way.
Besides, thee knows very we'll that ex-
ercise is a good thing for stout ladies'.
That's so, Mr.. Whittier" assented
