Mr, Mohr suggesta Practically.

MT. Nose Mohr formerly an enthusi- astic member of the Fire Department, has been reminded to speak again for the safety of the fremen who are threatened with dangers on their runs because they arc not able to nave clear streets to run on. MT. Mohr narrowly averted an accident the other day by holding back heavy dray just Tn time to prevent a collision of 1t with the fire trucks. That was at the corner of Bibb and Commerce Streets.
 The worst corners for the hremen' MT. Mohr said yesterday. are at the intersection of Perry Street and Dexter Avenue. the corners around Court Square, and the corner at the intersec- tion of Bibb and Commerce. More than across Dexter, Avenue, going south. There Is seldom any effort to give them the right-of-way.
 The runAing men on the street cars fore do not stop. When the traffic on Dexter Avenue is even moderately heavy, the policemen can not hear tt, and therefore. do not keep the passage clear. The teamsters and drivers and pedestrians do not hear 1t and keep serenely on their way.
 "The only practicable way of pro- tecting the f1remen is to have alarm bells, connected with the fire alarm system, on the corners that are most dangerous. If, for instance, there was a gong on Court Square to ring simul- taneously with the fire bell in the City Hall. the patrolmen could very quickly clear a way. It would suspend traftlP only three minutes at the longest: if the boys don't get across Dexter Ave nue in that time. they are not coming. Three minutes is really big margin. The gongs and necessary connections would cost the city very little and les sen the dangers the firemen are sub jected to on every run.

In Days of Scrint.


 in the days of script. when the clearing house certificate was in flower and it's yellow, green, blue, gray and pink blossoms were made into shower bouquets for costumes de rigeur; when bulgy pocket books were mechanically called stuffing- boxes; in those days when the chivalry of finance naively decided that the best way to save the popu- lace's money was to take 1t away from them, give them parti-colored slips not less maddening to count than those slips m Mark Twain's fascinating jin- gle about the fares; in those days when man of saving disposition felt like a waste basket; in those days, then, when that bugaboo. Financial Stress. stalked the land. there were many things that have not yet been told.
 The aftermath of those days contains much chaff. just as then it did hold much chafing, but in the chaff are some kernels that afford food for thought with a subsequent rumination of equal delight. One of them is being whis- pered now. It is whispered because in 1t is related that a cashier of a bank once paid out $40O on one check at one time and 1t had been decided that this was trying the bugaboo too far
 But tt cOntaineth the saving grace of q little humor and of justice striking blindly, and. therefore. with fortuitous correctness; ''even he without sight sometimes spitteth beyond the curb"

Republicans Pay Tribute to Mr..

Landmark.
The New Jersey Legislature which
has 9 Republican majority, is doing
the non-partisan act to perfection.
On the 18th, the birthday of ex-
President Cleveland, Assemblyman
Sullivan, the Democratic leader in
the House, called attention to the
occasion and offered congratulatory
resolutions, which were immediately
passed, the vote being n standing
one, at the suggestion of Speaker
Jess The resolutions were immedi-
atel Y sent to the Senate for endorse
ment. 1t was proposed at first to
send Il special messenger with the Of
fetal copy of the resolutions to the
ex-President's home at Princeton,
but it was learned that he was not
at home and the resolutions we're for
warded by mail. Not content with
this the Legislature later unani-
mously passed resolutions inviting
Secretary of War Taft and Hon. w.
J. Bryan to address the Assembly as
guests of the members.

Veteran With History
Dies.
MIR. John McGrath. Who Fought
With Custer Against the
Sioux Indians in 1876 and
Was the Only Surviving
Member of His Brigade.
Dies at the Age Of rs Years.
Charlotte Observer, 18th.

Charlotte Observer, 18th.
A soldier by profession, fried in the
fiercest tests of martial conflict, pos
sessed of the valor and sturdy man
hood inherent in the unmixed Irish
blood which flowed through his ems,
passed over the river Yesterday ON
his native country's gala day, when
Mr.. John McGrath, of Irish birth,
veteran of the Indian and civil wars
and said to be the only member of
the famous Custer brigade who sur
vived the annihilation.visited on it by
the savages in 1876, at the battle of
the Little Big Horn, died at 8 o'clock
ut his home, No. Z East Stonewall
street. Seventy-eight years the loyal
Irishman and as loyal American
lived, dying on ST. Patrick's day.
Mr.. McGrath's career was most
unusual one, touched at many places
by the color of romance. livened oft
by episodes which placed life in .jeop-
ardy and demanded a high degree of
daring. Born in Galway, Ireland, rs
years ago, it was in early life that he
made his initial trip to this country
with his parents and with the Ameri-
can people cast in his lot for good or
i'll. For few months he was en-
plOyed as a gardener in New York.
Then his inclination for the life mill
tary conquered and he enlisted in
the United States army, beginning a
term OF service which ended only after
more than 20 years.
Mr.. McGrath's Indian fighting was
done under the inspiring leadership
OF the courageous Custer, who was
in command of his brigade, pitted
against the Sioux. Itwas only chance
that the subject of this sketch sur
vived that conflict. AS it happened,
he was one OF those selected to pro-
tect the army by scouting ahead
Disguised as one of the red men
against whom his countrymen we're
contending. clad in their picturesque
attire and affecting their stoical
demeanOr. Mr.. McGrath broke
through the enemy's lines, thus runs
the story, and despite the fact that
his term of service had just expired,
brought to the rescue of the leopard
lied band of 47O, employing all his
shrewd knowledge of the ways of the
Indians and all his detailed acquaint-
ance with the topography of the
country, sufficient re-inforcements
to have saved the day. But it was
too late. Led by Sitting Bull, the
savage hordes had rushed upon the
outnumbered soldiers, had smashed
their line of battle into disordered
fragments and ere they desisted in
their merciless.. death dealing. had
destroyed every remnant of the brig
ade, far famed though it was.
The latter part of Mr. McGrath's s
life was spent near Shelby, with his
family. After living 30 years there
he came to Charlotte about two
years ago and lived here ever since.
Mr.. McGrath is survived by his wife
and five children. These are: Messrs.
Dennis, Samuel and Jake McGrath.
and Misses Mary and Hester McGrath

BAILEY'S ESTIMATE OF ROOSE.
WELT.

Senator Bailey, who is regarded by
many persons as the ablest man in
the United States Senate, in speech
on the pending financial bill, gave
this estimate of the President:
1--WE have never before witnessed
such a mixture OF good and evil in
any public man. Before we have
finished praising him for some wise
recommendation he makes another so
foolish that our praise must turn to
censure. They tell ME that he is
brave; and | answer that he is just as
rash as he is brave. They tell me
that he is honest; and | answer that
he is just as arbitrary as he is honest.

be a Democrat, and if he were little
worse he would not obscure and con-
fuse the great issues between Demo-
Gratis and their adversaries.
