Lone Robber Gets $4,000.

A masked bandit, working alone,
stole $4,000 in cash from the home of
Schuyler Rainier, seventy-two years
old, a wealthy farmer, residing near
Florence, n. ].
The crime has baffied the police by
its desperate boldness. Although the
Rainier homestead is less than a half
mile from the Florence postoff1ce, and
fronts on much frequented public
road. the robber. after locking the aged
housekeeper of the farmer in her
room, dynamited the big safe, which
has been Ranier's bank for years, the
storehouse at times for as much as
s25 900 in gold.
Mrs. Jane Nickson, nearly seventy
years old, and the sole occupant of the
farmhouse when the masked robber
entered, is in a critical condition from
the shock of the struggle With the
bandit.

Attaches of a Circus and Presiden

Birmingham, Ala, dispatch, End.

Birmingham, Ala, dispatch, 2nd.
For an hour or more before leaving
Jackson, Miss, early this morning
President Taft's' special train was
packed in the railroad yards imme-
diately alongside one of the sleeping
car trains of the three-ring circus
which played in Jackson as-an oppo-
sition attraction to the President on
yesterday.
1t was not long before an acquaint-
ance had been formed aboard the
two trains and for time the CONVEX
sation ran from window to window
like this:
1--WE play in Yazoo tomorrow,
where do you play?" asked repre-
sentative of the circus, addressing
one of the presidential party.
Eve play Columbus in the after
noon and Birmingham at night, with
street parade in both places, came
the reply.
eve played Columbus yesterday. "
How was business?

"We get the crowds wherever we
go" "boasted a presidential one night
stander.
But We get the money" came
back the circus man, amid the ap'
plause of his associates.

form show and a band in the parade

IF it was not for the one main
guy you would not have a show at
all. "chinned in a sad and serious Wis.
aged individual through one of the
windows OF the yellow circus train
He was the leading clown.
The bombardment from the three
ring show became so heavy that the
presidential adherents gave up the
task of further comparison and al
hands parted company with expires
sions of great delight that the circus
was going into winter quarters in
two weeks and that the President's
troupe was quitting the road in ten
days.

Charlotte Chronicle.
All unheknownst to us, Southport
is actually being approaced by that
long-talked of railroad. 1t is called
the Wilmington, Brunswick & South
port Railroad, and the Wilmington
Dispatch, of yesterday. tells us: "The
work of laying rails, in progress for
some time past, continues steadily
and the tracks are now completed
within two miles of Town Creek in
Brunswick county. This makes a to-
tai of eight miles of trackage which
have already been finished. A force
of one hundred men is constantly en-
gagged in the construction work and
the contract is being pushed as rap
idly as possible" We learn further
from the Dispatch that the new rail-
road will commence at Navassa and
will extend Southwark for a distance
OF Sc miles. Direct connections will
be made from Navassa. to Ell Paso,
Town Creek, Bolivia and Southport.
From that point the railroad will ex-
tend to Lockwoods Folly, Shallotte
anu LlUtle hlVeF, .. u. LII Is eSUlmaCeu
that the road will be completed with
in eighteen months or two years.
From this it will he seen that South
ports railroad is at last a reality
The officers of this road are Y. W.
Whitehead, of Wilmington, presi-
dent; A. ]. Mckinnon, MaxtOn, vice
president; and R. F. Devaun, of Red
Springs, secretary and treasurer,
Eventually. its Wilmington terminus
will be in the union depot in this city.
The building OF this railroad is one
of the best things that has happened
in a long time for both Wilmington
and Southport.

SILENT Sermon:
N0ISELESS HYMN
Services Held For Deaf Mutes
in New York Church,
BREACHES WITH FINGERS
Father Tom Calvin Stira Speeches.
Congregation With Eloquent Sermon
Hymn With His Fingers and Lips.

New 1Ork, NOV. S.-Ihe RedemptOr
ist Fathers. from their Church of ST
Alphonius, in West Broadway, sent
word to the silent people of the five
boroughs and all around that Father
Tom Calvin would give them q week
of sermons without words. So the
deaf mutes hurried to St Alphonius to
see Father Tom preach and enjoy the
fine smile that the priest shows above
his flying fingers.
They came from miles around, Jer-
sey and Westchester and Staten ISL
and even, and folks who saw them
passing in the streets of the lower
West Side stopped to marvel at these
people who talked so animatedly with
their lips and eyes and fingers and
made no noise at all. Some that
watched the deaf mutes thronging into
st. Alphonius entered the church and
took seats in the rear pews.
Moved Silent Over Front.
When Father Tom, in his black
robe, with a golden cross swinging at
| his girdle, stepped into the pulpit, he
looked down upon more than 250 men
and women who could not hear or
speak. Many of them had placed them.
selves dif1dently far back in the
church, so it was necessary for Father
Tom to ask them to move nearer the
pulpit. They kept their eyes on him
constantly. He began to play his hands
and move his lips. He shifted whole
| groups from seats in.the rear to seats
| in the front. He singled out individuals
who hesitated-bashful girls and en-
barrassed young men-and brought
| them to the front with gestures and q
smile. Sometimes it was an old and
feeble woman who hung back, but
| Father Tom had a way with him that
| completely melted their reluctance. An
appealing gesture and friendly smile
did the trick.
Sings With Fingers and Lips.
The service, which was as simple as
1t could be made, began with a Catho-
lie hymn which was perfectly well
known, it seemed to all the silent peo-
pie. Father Tom lined it out with his
brisk fingers and his lips. 1t was not
necessary for one to know the al
phabet. And as Father Tom sang
swiftly with rapid fingers and moving
lips, the congregation followed him
! word for word, sign for sign, and the
church would be so still that the
swishing of serge somewhere away
back In the gloom, as priest passed
along an aisle, struck hard upon the
ear.
Then Father Tom began to preach
He spent thirty minutes on the ser
mon. Now and then he grew very
stern. His eye darkened and his lips
frightened and his gesturing was SLOW
and emphatic. Now and then he laugh
ed without noise, his eye Frightened
and his fingers fairly flew. Sometimes
out of the stiffness came half articu
late sound as one of the congregation
was stirred by point in the sermon
and expressed his feelings as audibly
as possible. Sometimes mirth rar
around the church and you could heal
Just the ghost of laugh.

Durham Herald.

Even if we look on Mr.. Taft's visit
with suspicion we should be careful
not to let him know it.
Everybody seems to be satisfied
with the way the election went with
the exception of Tammany
1t is to the credit of the Democratic
party that it is shedding few tears
over the defeat of Tammany.
And they are not going to let the
people who have the money to spend
have word to say about it.
If the hook-worm is what they say
it is the disease is more common
everywhere than is generally sup
posed.
Admitting that we have the hook
worm, we see no reason why Mr.
Rockefeller's money should be turned
down.
Even if we feel that Mr.. RockefeI-
ler's money is not needed there is no
need to abuse MIN because he m axes
the offer
But suppose the circuses were to
get here first, then the people would
have no money left with which to go
to the fairs.
The State fair takes several thous-
and dollars out of this town every
year, but we are making no kick on
that account.
Those farmers who sold their cot
ton for ten cents before it was planted
evidently thought they would be sell
ing at Il profit.
1t seems that the man who rallied
against the Sunday papers did not ac-
cOmplish anything, and still he may
have been right.
By reference to the news columns
it will be seen that the deadly auto
mobile is beginning to getin it's work
in North Carolina.
But Judge Gaynor should know that
as Tammany could not elect it's own
candidates it is not wholly RESPONSE
BILE for his election.
Do you fellows mean that the peo-
pie will only patronize the fairs when
there is nowhere else for them to
spend their money?
Every now and then sonnet hing hap
pens that helps reconcile a man to
the fact that he has not the money
to buy an automobile.
If the South does not want Mr..
Rockefeller's money we will not be
working a hardship upon him by re-
spectfully declining it.
The trouble is that we have laws
designed to prevent too many things
that the people have never been
taught to consider wrong.
The law regulating the speed of au-
tomobiles might have been intended
for the protection of automobile own
ers as we'll as the rest OF us.
The prohibition law may be little
drastic, but we have no idea that it
works a hardship on those who have
not attempted to get around it.
If there is not enough money in the
| country for both the circus and the
fairs we might at least let the people
| decide as to which they rather should
get it.
The party has no reason to feel
downcast at the temporary defeat of
Tammany. There is little in common
between Tammany and the real Dem
ocratic party.
Those of us who are delighted at
the advance of the price of cotton
should make no kick now that the
manufacturers and brokers have
agreed to advance the price of cotton
goods.
Ii the farmers union should claim
the credit for fifteen-cent cotton we
would not be able to dispute it. The
organization stood out for fifteen
cents when all the rest of us thought
it was flighty.
When tobacco averages over
seventeen cents a pound and when it
is remembered it averages around a
thousand pounds to the acre it can
be seen that there is yet a little
monev in cultivating it.
