Improvements to State Capitol.

Raleigh, June 16.-The material is
being assembled for the work of III
stallin gthe electric light equipment.
ventilating system and additional
heating facilities for the capitol build
ing. The work is to begin Monday.
The work includes drilling through
the stone walls for inserting metal
pipes in which the electric light wires
are to be strunk, all this work to be
invisible. The immense gas chande-
liers in the legislative halls are to
give place to new and better located
combination gas and electric chande-
1iers.
There will be circles of electric
lights high up in the dome. In order
to install these 1t will be necessary to
completely scaffold this vast space by
the use of something like two carloads
of lumber. 1t is believed that when
the contract is completed the lighting
ventilating and heating equipment Of
the state house will be well nigh per
feet. The expectation is to have the
work completed by September 1.

was asked for by four of the persons

that they we're denied on account CT
having sold the nigh" that was one

beer. There are two applications IN

EXPOSITION

Washington, June 16.-The house

thorized Representative Fassett to re-
port to the house the two bills for the
Panama exposition at San Francisco
and New Orleans. The committee
amended the bill requiring each city
to subscribe $7,5OO,OOO as guarantee,
The city that raises this sum first will
be recommended as the city for the
exposition. If both cities raise the
sum at the same time the question is
then to be presented to the president
for his decision in which event it IS
not improbable that he would desig

Nash County Institute.

Nashville, N. c., June 16.-An in
stitute for the white teachers of the
county will be held at Nashville be-
ginning Monday, July IL, and con-
tinuing two weeks.
The Nash county institute will be
in charge of Mr.. r. A. Merritt, who
is the director of the practice school
and professor of pedagogy at the
state normal, Greensboro. Mrs. G. L.
Stevens, of New Bern, will be his as
sistant. The county is indeed fortu-
nate in securing these two splendid
teachers to take charge of the insti'
tute, and is is hoped that all the teach
ers will give the conductors every sup
port possible.
During the institute an educational
rally will be held in Nashville. School
committeeman and others interested
in the schools will be invited to ne
present. Definite announcement will
be made about the rally later.

Crops in Serious Condition.

Raleigh, June 16.-The gravest con
Germ is felt here as to the effect of the
continued heavy rainfall through the
central and eastern sections Of the
state on the crops, especially cotton.
Commissioner of Agriculture w. A
Graham said that crop failure this
year would mean a disaster from
which the farmers would not recover
in several years. Big increases In
the cost of labor and supplies and IN
fertilizers have put the farmers to
so much heavier expense that crop
failure would mean about twice as
great disaster as such failures in the
past have meant. Another weak OF
this wet weather, even if rainfalls
are not anything like as heavy as they
have been the past two weeks, will
means the ruin of the crops through
out this section. The rainfall here at
Raleigh thus far for June has been
6.4S inches. This is by odds heavier
than for any corresponding period OF
previous years in long while.

Albert Millmon, of Charlotte, who
spent Tuesday and Wednesday in the
city on business for the Southern
Power Company, left yesterday after

Mr.. Lee, vice-president and general
manager of the company, declared
that the business look bod and If it

No Prize Fight Says Governor.

Washington, June 16.--The move OF
the state authorities of California to
sto pthe Jeffries-Johnson prize fight
is believed in Washington to have had
its origin in a telegram which Repre-
sentative Bennett, sent to William Il
Wheeler. president of the San Fran
29. The telegram was to the effect
that the moral sentiment of the coun-
try was SO opposed to the fight that
unless it was prevented, there was
grave danger that congress would
take unfavorable action on the resolu-(
ton now before it naming San Fran
cisco the place for holding the inter
national celebration for the opening
of the Panama canal. Mr.. Bennett is
a member of the foreign affairs com,
mittee of the house, which has the
exposition resolution under considera-
tion.
He recently received a telegram
from San Francisco asking his sup
port of the resolution for the San
Francisco fight. He replied as above
stated. When informed that Governor
Gillett had moved to call off the fight,
Bennett was much gratifed. He said:
Prize fighting is prohibited by law
| in my state, and in most all states.
The sentiment of the country is, be-
lieve, strongly opposed to such exhib!-
tions."
In response to Mr.. Benefits tele-
er, which read:
please urge on your committee
that the public-spirited citizens. pro
noting the San Francisco exposition
and people generally interested there
in are not favorable to the Jeffries
Johnson fight. Undoubtedly the pre-
ponderating majority of our people
are opposed to the fight. 1t would be
decidedly unjust to consider the lat
ter proposition in connection with the

The foreign affairs committee will
consider today the resolutions of SaI
Francisco and New Orleans, askins
for recognition for their proposed ex
positions. In view of the action of the
California authorities on the propos
Bennett will favor San Francisco d:

Steamer Had Narrow Escape.

Elizabeth City, June 16.-The
steamer Hamilton of the Leroy line,
had a most remarkable experience
Sunday night and that the big boat
did not go down is considered miracu-
lous. While plying up Roanoke river
she ran into bi gelm tree hoating
in the water and the tree plunged INTO
the side of the ship just below the
water line and penetrated through the
hull eight feet. Work was immediate
" begun to save the boat, but it was
found that the log had so wedged INTO
the side Of the hull that there was
little leakage. The tree was sawed
off from the outside and with the
[eight,foot beam sticking into her SIDE
the Hamilton steamed back to Eliza
beth City.

Will Fly from New York to Chicago.

New York, June 16.-"I'm going to
fly to Chicago in the near future"
Charles K. Hamilton, the little red
headed daredevil, who Monday per-
formed the most remarkable aviation
fat yet accomplished, when he flew
from NV York to Philadelphia and
back, following a time table, made
this statement when he appeared from
his rooms at the Hotel Astor the 9th
er day.
Save for a stiffness in his joints
and the burning skin of those who
have been exposed to a high wind
all day long, he gave no signs of his
magnificent feat of yesterday.
ST don't feel any strain at ALL" he
said.
At the same time that he announc-
ed his intention of essaying the $50
mile New York Chicago fight it was
made known that Hamilton will soon
make anexhibition flight for the bene
fit of New York. Hundreds of thous
andsof people lined the Hudson ano
crowded skyscraper windows Monday
in the hope of seeing him fly up the
Hudson on his return from Philadel
phia, but the mishap which sent him
into the swamp along Raritan Rive1
prevented him from making a recorc
long distance flight, as he had intend
ed. The man who startled the world
what is declared by his fellow aviator:
to be the finest flight ever made, paio
littl heed to the compliments he re
ceived save for those from the few
birdmen who know the difficulty will
the easier, but longer, London-to
Manchester made by Louis Paulhan
Hamilton, said one aviator, surmount
ed more difficulties in half of his Az
mile trip than did Paulhan in tn
whole of his 186-mile flight for $50
900.

Congress Will Adjourn Next Week

Washington, June l5.-Congress is
expected to adjourn one week from
next Saturday, or on June 25, accord
ing to plans made public by senate
leaders after consultations with house
leaders a careful canvass of both
branches land a revision of the sen
ate's legislative program. The plans
perfected are as follows:
The statehood bill was made the
unfinished business" Immediately up
CT the passage of the land withdrawal
bill today.
road bill is to be called up today, how
ever, and pending disposition of it,
the statehood bill temporarily will be
laid aside.
Postal savings bank legislation was
forced aside by the new order, but
Itle agreement provides for it's con-
sideration following statehood.
In connection with consideration of
the railroad bill conference report it
IS expected that several brief spec :fl-
es will be made during which west
ern senators will discuss the long
and short haul provision. Senator
! Newlands, the minority member oi
the conference committee, will oppose
the adoption of the report.
The arrangement or informal un
| derstanding that the senate wouId
concur in the house amendments tc
the postal bank bill, was contingent
upon the adoption of the statehood
bill. This means, however, that the
measure for the admission of New
Mexico and Arizona is to be substi
tuted for the bill which passed the
house. The two measures are strik
ing1y different, and it was stated tha
it might require considerable pressure
from the white house to reconcile diff
ferences, but that President Taft wa:
convinced that the task was not i'm
possible.
The action of the senate in adopt
ing the bill for the issuance of cert
! ficates of Indebtedness to furnisi
money to complete reclamation pros
poets as an amendment to the lane
withdrawal bill, caused western sena
tors to express fear that it might en-
counter obstacles in conference. Th.s
fear was based upon statements tha
the house was opposed to the rec
lamation measure.
