The John Calvin McNaiH Leo
lures at Chapel HiIl-HOW They
Were Provided for.

"SEC EFOVAOeu IOEs
The series of "John Calvin
McNair' lectures recently de-
livered at the University Of
North Carolina by DR.. Francis
II. Smith, retired professor of
physics at the University of
Virginia, recalls a fact that
should be of interest to all
Robesonians.
Mr.. McNair was a Presbyte-
rian minister who lived near
Saint Pauls in this county and
died some time in the year 1857.
In his will he devised his lands
to the trustees of the Univer-
sitY and provided that the
lands should be sold and the
proceeds invested and the in
terest used to provide lectures
to be made before the student
body. The lectures were to be
made by Scientific gentlemen"
and were to deal with some sub
iect showing the Relationship
Between Sciences 4 Theology.
At the time Of Mr.. McNair's
death there was a great deal of
discussion owing to the then
new scientific ideas that were
being spread abroad and there
was a great deal Of skepticism
abroad in the land. That, how
ever, seems to have almost en-
tirely passed away for now, as
a rule, the most eminent Scien-
titic men are firm believers in
the teachings of theology and re-
ligion.
The land became involved in
a law suit and nearly fifty
years passed before the land
was sold and the money placed
in the hands of the University
trustees, and the lectures re-
Gently delivered are the first Of
! the series, 1t is said that the
lectures were very interesting
and were we'll attended by the
students and that DR.. Smith is
a forceful speaker and he was
followed closely by all hi
hearers. From now on a series
Of the lectures will be delivered
each year before the studens 0
the University.

Final Judgment In Builders Lum-
Der Co. Bankruptcy Case.

Raleigh Times, 25th.
The motion for the distribu-
ton Of the proceeds from the
sale of the property of the Build
ers Lumber Company of Mariet-
ia, Robson county, a bankrupt
corporation, was heard before
Judge Thomas R. Purnell of the
United States District Court to-
day. The case was heard in the
United States circuit court of ap-
peals and the argument today
was over the passing of the final
judgment of that opinion. The
lumber company is known as the
w. J. Edwards property and the
total liabilities are about $50, 900,
with assets placed at 5000,
less the court costs in the case.
The Circuit Court held that the
American Woodworking Machine
Co. was entitled to it's claim of
SO, 300 in full, the other creditors,
of whom there are a number, to
share alike in the distribution.
Appearing in the case where's.

THORNTON STAR
Hon. j. A. Potts Writes Alex Carter
and Son Regarding Their Fine
Saddle Stallion

Hon ]. A. Potts, Of San Antonio,
Texas, Who formerly lived In Mexico,
and owned Thornton star, the famous
saddle stallion, writes the present
owners, Alex Carter and Son, OF Mex
leo, as follows.
San Antonio, Tex, April IA, 1908. =
Mr.. Alex Carter and Son,
Mexico, Missouri.
Dear Sirs:-I see from the Mexico
papers that you have bought Thorn
ton Star. can say that this grand
horse afforded me as much pleasure as
well as profit as any horse 1 ever
owned. While l owned him l won
one OF the largest stakes that has ever
been won by a saddle horse In the
United states
What you are doing for the Ameri-
can saddle horse should, and l have
no doubt will be, appreciated by the
community.
/ hope to be home sometime during
the summer; and one Of the pleasures
that l look forward to, will be to drive
out to your beautiful home and again
see the noble old horse.
With kindest regards for yourself
and family, l remain,
Yours truly,
]. A. Potts.

The recent action OF the Mexico
Fair Association In arranging a stake
for saddle horses is commendable
move on the Associations part and
their liberaltyln making the value o
that stake $500 90 should and Will be
appreciated by all horselovers. Mex
leo Is accredited as being the saddle
horse center Of the World. 'Tis well
said that the saddle horse from this
section OF Missouri sells better than
do those from other sections. And
the reason is that the intending pur-
chaser OF a saddle horse fully realizes
this sections notoriety in the product
Ion OF that class of horses and bis visit
here is as natural as person who de-
sires Partisan gowns crosses the socean
to the capital Of France. And this
reputation, great as 1t is, is ours. En-
terprising men Of the near previous
generation by their wonderful fore
thought established 1t and made 1t
iirm. The Mexico Fair Association,
composed, as IL is, OF progressive
citizens, are doing their share toward
maintaining the high standard Of ex-
cellence Of the Missouri Saddle Horse.
The $500 90 given by this organization
will prove an incentive to those whose
interest in this great breed Of horses
is tagging. The winner Of this stake
will not only be profitably rewarded
financially but great will be the honor
that is his. Oongratulations to the
Mexico Fair Association for Its stand
in upholding the reputation OF the
Missouri Saddle Horse.

ed,

The j Prunty grading outfit from
Omaha, which has contract to grade
q section OF the Mexico.Perry and
Santa Fe Electric line, arrived in Mex
leo Wednesday morning. This outfit
consisted Of twenty-five teams and
four car loads of tools, scraper, shovels
etc.
The Prunty force will pitch their
tents near the o. L Woods place this
side of Molino. The exact place Of
starting the grading is just south OF
the cross roads near the Woods farm.
Che force will grade this way, their
intention being to complete the part
of the line between Mexico and Molino
just as soon as possible.
The grading is expected to be com
pleted in the next ten weeks, but the
tedious part of the work is the bridge
construction, there being a number OF
bridges to be built in this part of the
line. The line between Molino and
Mexico, however, will be completed
first, which ia expected In the early
fall.
NJ Conley, of Lawrence, Kans., is
also here and will have force of men
and grading outfit as soon as the
machinery arrives which is expected
Thursday. Mr.. Conley will camp near
Molino and will work towards Santa
Fe
The contractors have their head

and 1t is understood that they will pay

Some Towns In Illinois go Dry and
Some go Wet

Up to II O'Clock Tuesday night re-
ports had been received from about
100 towns and villages In Illinois in

voted to retain the saloons. Forty
four voted to do without them.
AS far as can be learned, yesterdays

The figures stand, therefore, about

AS result of the election on April
