Daring Robbery Attempted at Bath, )
D.-Bandit Escapes After Shoot
ing One Man.

Bath, S. D., Nov. 17.-This commu-
nifty is stirred by the most daring rob-
berry ever attempted in this locality.
The entire place is aroused, posses
are securing the country and there
seems little chance of the fellow final
ly getting away.
A group of four men were idling
about the railway station at Bath
about 10 o'clock last night, waiting
the arrival of the train, when the
hold-up genius entered the place.
He leveled his weapon at the group
and ordered them to hold up their
hands, which they did without a mo-
ment's delay. He then ordered the
men to march into the operators
room.
Two of them were about to comply,
when the other two, whose names are
given as Parsons and Bendicson, turn
ed on the fellow and engaged him in
a hand-to-hand battle.
The robher was getting the worst OF
it, when he suddenly fred at close
range. BendicsOn rceled and fell with
one bullet hole in his neck and an,
other through the left side of his
cheek and shoulder.
AS Parsons sought safety in flight
and Bendicson went down, the man
leared through the station window
and disappeared in the darkness.
Rendicson has been brought here
and although his condition tonight is
| rrecarious, it is believed that he has
q good chance of recovering.

Adjutant GeneralH. A. London,
of the North Carolina division
United Confederate Veterans,
says the outlook is bright for a
large attendance of North Caro-
lima veterans at the general re-
union to be held this year in
Birmingham, Ala. June 9, 10 and
IL and that the annual reunion
in this state August 16 and 20
will also evidently be well attend
ed. This will be at Winstn-Sa-
lem, the invitation having come
from Norfeet camp of that city.
Orders and detail arrangements
for both these evets will be issued
very soon. Major London is
especially anxious fora creditable
representation from North Caro-
lima at the Birmingham reunion
and he directs attention that no
camp participate in the delibera.-
ions or electionsthere by delegate
or proxy which has not paid its
dues for the year. At Richmond
last year only about half the camp
represented had paid their dues
and these were therefore debarr-
ed from voting. There are about
10000 surviving veterans to
North Carolina.

town,whowill delay for monthst to
pay bills that they could settle
just as easy when the bill is
first presented, and such men

When the matter is sifted
down most men are honest and
intend to deal honestly. but they
cause a great deal of trouble by
continually putting off what they
could just as easily do today. We
would plead for the fellow that
has hard time at best and ask
that men that make bills give
them more attention when the
collector comes around.
This plea is not based so much
on our experience in collecting,
for most of our patrons have
been very considerable in this
matter and only a few that make
it a business to beat people have
given US trouble, but on every
hand people that have a great
deal of collecting to do complain
that people are not considerate
of the fact that it takes time and
money to have a collector out.

fine example for other cities of

CARDS it the ibest high school
equipment south Of Richmond,

proper educational lines. He
found four hundred high school
students. at least twenty per

enrolment and at least half of
