MAKING MONEY SOME.
An Acre in Strawberries That
Will Yield $500.

Mr.. Joshua Barnes, who lives
between two and three miles
east of Lumberton, has a little
patch of strawberries that has
been the source of nice little
income for the last two or three
weeks and looks as tho ugh it will
last for some time yet. Mr..
Barnes has only one acre in ber-
ries, but they are of an extra
variety and have been selling for
a good price. Up until Wednes-
day he had sold about rs crates
from which he realized 50 crate
after deducting shipping expen-
ses. Mr.. Barnes thinks he will
realize $500 from this one acre of
berries, which is making money
some. Mr.. FL. Thomas, express
agent, says that he has received
several letters in the last few
days from commission men at
Richmond, Va, asking him to
send them some of Barnes ber-
ries. There is nothing like hav-
ing the variety.

highly-recommended attraction.
The Ethel Morton Opera Com
pany is composed of members of
a number of large and successful

Vile, cancelled one night of an
engagement there and MIR. De-
Gaferelly succeeded in securing
the open night for Lumberton.
The company will present The

An evening of exceptional enjoy

Damon and Pythias, Presented
Friday Evening, Immensely
Enjoyed.
Damon and Pythias, the play
given in the auditorium of the
graded school building Friday
evening by local talent, under
the auspices of Unity Lodge No.
POP and under the direction of
Mr.. and Mrs. Edouard D'Oize,
of Baltimore, was immensely
enjoyed by a small audience.
Mr.. D'Oize, as Damon, was SUI
peru, and Mrs. F. J. Thomas, as
Hermiona, was equally as good.
Mrs. D'Oize, as Calanthe, was
all right, and the same may be
said of Mr.. Gerald Pitman, as
Dionysius, and little Elizabeth
Thomas, as Damon's child, was
as sweet as could be. When all
is said, however, the bright par
ticular star of the play was Mr..
w. H. Kinlaw, as Pythias. He
was warrior bold and also some
pumpkins of a lover, and the
reckless abandon and fervor with
which he embraced the fair
Calanthe was scandalous. 1t
was all in the play though, and
he had a right for the nonce to
hold her tight to his manly
bosom; as he did.
Mr.. D'Oize got up the play fol
half the proceeds above expenses,
and as the total receipts were
$50. 80 and the expenses were
$7O.65, he lost $14.35.

Lunacy Commission May Be APP
pointed to Determine Mental
Condition of Defendant.

FLUSHING. n. Y, April Ss.-The jury
that is to try Captain Peter c. Haines for
the murder of William +. Annis. his one
time friend, was finally completed today.
II took just seven days to select the twelve
men and in that time $50 talesmen were
called and examined. The state will present
It's case. beginning tomorrow, and from
that time on the case will move expedi-
tiously. The jurymen are a tailor, real
estate dealer, tinsmith, retired farmer,
photographer, contractor, electrician, insur-
ance agent, music teacher, printer, gar
ment cutter and elevator man.
All of the jurymen are married except
Otto Nicholas, who is 81 years old and the
youngest in the jury box. The defense has
fought all along for married men and per-
emptorily challenged the few bachelors who
have qualified.
Captain Hams has taken no part in Sc
Letting the twelve men who will decide his
fate, and will remain silent throughout the
proceedings. His lawyers contend that he
is insane now, as he was for months be-
fore he killed Annis. The idea that a
lunacy commission will be appointed to
pass on the captains present mental condi-
