Interesting Cass Comes Before Judges at
aPopuIar Summer Resort.

There was an interesting and
rather novel scene in one of the
Railways of the Atlantic Ho.
tel this afternoon when Judges
Owen II, Guion and William R.
Allen heard argument in an in
junction case, the injunction being
sought to restrain the City Of New
bern through It's mayor from cut
ting and running shade trees of
great age and size, admitted to be
within the boundary of the
sidewalks. under allegations
that the trees interferred with
the, proper paving of the
sidewalks. The case of Mary
Hatch, plaintiff, returnable be-
fore Judge Guion, and B. 6. Aren-
dale. returnable before Judge AL
len, involving the same question,
were by consent heard before the
two judges sitting together,
The case was argued by W. W.
Clark, for the defendants, and D.
L. Ward, D. e. Henderson and
Cowper & Num- for the paintiff
The judges took papers.
Several other judges listened to
the argument and regret was af-
terwards expressed that the five
other judges here and the four Su-
preme Court justices present had
not been invited to sit as friends
of the court. - 1t is important
that this case presents new points
IN North Carolina law as it seeks
to prevent the destruction of
shade trees on streets. There has
been cases involving damages for
trees already cut down in this
city.-Morehead City, N. c., spe-

AN EXCELLENT MOVE.
Physicians Place Themselves on Record
on the Liquor Question.

The State Medical Society Of
North Carolina adopted the fol.
lowing resolutions at their recent
meeting in Winston-Salem
They have the right ring:
"Whereas, the people of the
State of North Carolina have, by a
a large majority vote, recently
an act which after January l.,
1863, makes illegal the sale of in
toxicating liquors in North Caro-
lima except upon physicians, pre-
scriptions:
"Whereas, the Leglslatu Q Of
North Carolina, in framing the
prohibition law, did evidence
great confidence in the medical
profession of said State by placing
in the hands of such profession to
an extent success or failure of the
law IN that the members of the
said medical profession are given
the right to prescribe spirituous
liquors at their discretion, there
fore. be it resolved:
"First, That the Medical Socie-
ty of the State of North Carolina,
in fifty-ffth regular annual ses-
sion assembled, do hereby con-
denim as unprofessional and gross
ly immoral any lax or unfaithful
conduct in it's members in the ex-
ercise of the privileges conferred
in this law.
"Second: That the Medical So
ciety of the State of North Caro-
lima respectfully urges upon all
the physicians of this State,
whether members of this society or

to the people that the members of
the medical profession can be re-
lied upon implicitly to perform
their full duty in aiding in the en-
torcement Of the prohibition law
and in building up public senti-
ment that will inspire protection
against an illegal traffic in intoxi-
eating liquors.
"Third, That the Medical So
ciety Of the State of North Caro-
lima respectfully urges upon the
Board Of Medical Examiners of the
State of North Carolina the man
ifest duty of revoklng the license

ANOTHER WARNING.
Some Of SaIisbuy's Boys Will DO Well to
Remember and Heed II.

In attempting to swing an out
going Southern passenger train
for Marion, N. c., Boyd Stroud,
the 15-year-old son of Arch
Stroud, of the Rlchland Mill viii
lage, fell under the wheels and
was instantly killed this morning
as the train was passing Sumter
and Indigo streets, block from
the union station. The little
fellows body was horribly man
gled, the head being the only por-
tion not cut up.
This dangerous practice Of
swinging onto outgoing passenger
trains for free rides is q favorite
pastime among young boys of his
age in that section Of the city,
and at the time of the accident
Boyd was accompanied by num-
Der of his companions who we're
more fortunate in getting safely
On the train.
The Stroud family came here
from McColl, S. c., where they
have number of relatives. They
also have relatives at Dillon,
S. G.
The body is now in the morgue
awaiting an inquest, which will
be held tomorrow.-Columbia

ALBEMARLE AND STARLY COUNTY.
Cotton Blooms Becoming Common. Corner
Stone Laid for Lutheran Church.

stanly Enterprise, July End.
j In sending us a cotton bloom,
plucked on June 26, Luther H.
Bost, on Big Lick Route No. 2,
writes: II have never known the
farmers in our community to
have more promising prospects
for large crops than we now have"
The friends of Ashley Tucker
sympathize with him in the loss
OF his two-year-old son that died
Monday morning. The remains
we're bnried in the 'untry near
Mr.. fuckers old Hume,

two cotton-blooms in our last is
sue they have been coming in

more later than the 22nd. It
looked for awhile as if we were
going to get enough to make a
bale. Il shows that Stanly farm
ers are keeping up with their busi-
ness.
This afternoon at 5 O'Clock the
corner stone laying at the
Lutheran church will take place.
The new stone is here and will be
placed in position with impressive
ceremonies. All are invited to be
present. Rev. G.. II. Cox, D. D.,
will conduct the ceremonies,
Rev. and Mrs. H. A. McCollough
and children leave tomorrow for
Asheville, where they go to enjoy
the mountain air, and Incidental
ly to take in the Young Peoples
Missionry Conference. In this
connection, it may be stated that
there will be no evening services
at the Lutheran church during
the months of July and August.
Building on the Lutheran
church has been delayed the past
two weeks, owing to a delay in the
shipment of granite, which was
ordered from all Indiana quarry.
This grade of granite was ordered
on account of It's peculiar forma.
tion. Being very soft when it is
quarried, it is easy to shape close
joints, and it hardens after being
exposed to light aud weather. It
is gratifying to know that the
work is again b ,ing prosecuted.

the well-known Lutheran pastor
and leader, and is now awaiting
his dec1son. The entire tow1
joins the Lutheran people in the
call and hope that this able

/ Licker that will make man
break into house Is fierce, you
must admit Lexington is full of
blind tigers that is selling such
poison. They get it from the
blockaders out in the country.
When the Law and Order League
gets that detective, maybe the fur
won't fly then.
The tax listers think that when
they foot up their aggregates they
will find smaller valuation than
last years. People have been
mere than usully reuctant to reg
lister their full amount of holdings
and~some didn't pretend to do SO
md brazenly admitted it. AS
long as one man isn't particular
about what he what he swears to
there will be two of the same
mind, and dozen and a whole
population, for every man who
knows he is not giving in what he
is worth excuses himself on the
ground that everybody else is do
ing the same thing. Both the
town and township will fall off
some from last year. It has been
limited that lists would be made
out of some tolerably wealthy
gentlemen who. returned too small
an amout of credits and monies,
and that the commissioners would
be presented with same for ac-
ton. A few examples might
have a wholesome effects on tax
| dodgers, Meanwhile the poor
man and the man who isn't quite
so poor pays his full amount of
she burdens of government. It is
the same all over the world and
doubtless will be like this for two
Or three years longer!
The fund of prohibition election

One that is gaining circulation
| now is that certain fellow who
had been making blockade whis-
key went up to the polls and vot-
ed dry because that morning two
of his pigs got in4o some still slop
and were drowned.
This morning at 1890 in the
upper part of twin house occu-
pied by Duff Beck caught fire and
was burned. The alarm brought
q great many people out. Both
fire companies responded prompt
ly. The house was a small one
and was owned by Jason Grouse.
The blaze was over before many
of the folks reached it.
One thing is certain Of the Da.
wilson delegation and of all dele
cations at the state convention,
no man got as much fun out it as
Charles E. McCrary, who affec-
tionately called "shorty" by two
million North Carolinians. Peg
Leg Greham didn't more enjoy
ment. Our man got him a horn
and a Craig banner and Horne
banner and he demonstrated"
till the last armed foe expired.
He got up on a choir in front of
the band and waved time with his
horn, and down where his delega-
tion was he blew Craig defiance
in the ears of his Kithin friends.
He had perfectly glorious time.
