AN UNWASHED PRINCE.
The Lesson That Ended Hi.
Kicks About Morning Baths.

When Emperor William II was
a small boy he had a strong OBJ
lection to being washed in the
morning, and his governess,
having had some unpleasant ex-
periences with him and being in
some doubt as to what she had
better do, appealed to his father,
then the CrownP Prince Frederick.
Frederick answered, ''The next
time he gives any trouble on
this score leave him alone to his
own pleasure and report to me. "
Naturally it was not long be-
fore the young prince refused to
go through the publication
process, and the governess fol-
lowed the orders received.
Now, the boy had a little car
riage and was very fond of
driving out in the morning, and
he generally ordered the coach.
man to go by way of the Brand
enburg gate, as it amused and
t1attered him to see the soldiers
in the barrack, just inside the
gate, turn out and present arms
as the heir to the empire passed
their quarters. Accordingly or
the morning of his disobedience
the order was as usual, TIC
the Brandenburg gate" and the
carriage rolled rapidly thither.
But what was the amazement
and the rage of the princeling
on arriving there to see no sol.
diers except those on guard, and
they took not the slightest no.
tice of him. In towering passion
he ordered the coachman to re-
turn to the palace, where rush.
ing into his fathers room. he
complained of the indecent be.
havior of the guardand demanded
their condign punishment.
But his father only smiled and
said in the gentlest voice: 'Fuer
ungewaschener prinz wird
nlemals praesentirt" Gan un.

Marshville "a.
Farmers in a wheat country
think nothing of a fifty acre
wheat field, but in a country
where there is no wheat at all, a
few acres mean much. Robson
county has no wheat, but at her
county meeting June 10, 500
acres were subscribed to be sown
with wheat next fall. This
amount may reach 1000 acres.
Capital is now ready to build a
good wheat mill here, the ma
chinery is ordered and the site
for the mill is secured. A thresh-
ing machine is arranged for, and
everything is looking up for
more homemade biscuit.
This means diversification in
the field and pocket too. Any
farmer with land at all suitable
can grow his wheat cheaper than
| he can buy it. This is a step in
the right direction.
Arrangements We're made fol

THE INSANITY RACKET.

This insanity racket IN crlml-
nal cases is getting beastly COM
mon. Formerly if a man killed
another and was not clearly in
sane before and after the SOM
mission of the act-so clearly in
sane as to make it necessary to
send him to a hospital for crimi-
nal insane-it was rare that a
man put up such a plea. Now,
however, if a man shoots an
other to death the plea is made
that he was insane at the time
the act was committed and the
plea is too often effective. AL
most every day a new form of
insanity is sprung upon the pub
lie, when as a matter of fact in
nine cases out of ten it is per-
haps nothing more than ancient
cussedness and depravity. Last
February in Charlotte w. S.
Biggers shot down one J. Green
Hood. Biggers was tried in
Mecklenburg Superior Court and
Saturday afternoon the jury
brought in a verdict of not gull
ty. Confessional" insanity was
sprung in that case. 1t was con-
tended that Biggers brooded ov-
err injuries he had received at
the hands of Hood until he was
no longer responsible for his acts
so far as Hood was concerned
though sane enough on other
subjects-sO he goes scott free.
Suppose Biggers suffers another
obsession and goes out and shoots
another man? Very we'll. Turn
the poor man aloose and let him
go home to his wife and children.
Never mind about the widows
and orphans man may make:
paint the victim as black as pos
sible, let the little children and
wife of the condemned man pre-
sent as pitiable a sight as posi-
BILE while the trial is going on,
prove that he was momentarily
insane when the act was commit
ted, and let him go in peace!
Insane? Of course he was in
sane to the extent that every man
is insane who is under the infiu-
ence Of intense anger. But fol-
low this thing to where it is
bound to lead you, if you please,
and you'd just as we'll do away
with all criminal courts and write
it large that it is clearly evident,
every time a man commits a
crime against society, that he
was not in his right mind at the
tlme-no matter how sane he
may be afterwards-and should
not be punished. This insanity
racket has passed the limit.

Confessed Accessory to Holt
Murder Returns From Ohio
to Stand Trial-Strong Case
Against Him.

Special to Charlotte Observer from Durham. a5tb
Sheriff Harvard reached here
tonight from Columbus. o.
where ne went Tuesday for Solo
mon Shepard, the negro who
confesses to a completely in the
murder of Engineer Holt.
There isn't any doubt now
that Shepard was at least an &C.
cessory to the assassination of
the engineer. From the author
tiles who have heard his strange
talk, there has been gained
knowledge of the negro's con-
duct here and there is no longer
doubt that he was seen that
night at IL o'clock with the
shotgun by his side; that he
boarded at a colored mans house
and left the gun there. One OF
the three shells of peculiar color,
was fired at the engineer. The
weapon that wrought death has
been found, his picture was in
the clothes and every circum-
stance that counts, is against
him. There is no possible es-
cape from circumstances dug uu
by the officers.
