A Glimpse Of The Attractions
 Which Charity Ball Will Present
Mrs w. E. B. Davis Talks Interestingly of the Pans-A National Ball Will Be the Motif-Worthy Object For
 Which the Affair Is Given Annually
BY DOLLY DALRYMPLE.

No event of the year is anticipated with more pleasure than the annual Char ity Ball, which not only appeals to the community on account of the delightful social features it possesses, but as we'll for the worthy cause for which it is given. The District Nurses association is an institution which reaches every creed and class. and any help that can be accorded the cause is not only cheer fully but willingly given each year.
 The Charity Ball, which long since has become a permanent organization, had at its premiere the beautiful and charming Mrs. Henry B. Gray as its chairman and her great success so much encouraged the good women who are interested in it that last season it was again gotten up with the beloved Mrs. T. G. Bush as it's spon- sor. her success adding other laurels to those already earned
 "You see Mrs. w H. Kettig was asked to preside this year." said Mrs. W. E. B. Davis a few days ago, as she chatted with me about the third annual ball. which will be given on the evening of Easter Tuesday, the 29th, at the Country club. And after she was forced to give 1t up, much to our regret, somebody just had to take charge and as I was mem Der of the board and am so interested in the District Nurses association, gladly took the responsibility"
 (Which you do not find an easy one, I imagine" I suggested.
 "Of course, anything that is worth do- ing is always hard she replied, with the prettiest of smiles, land I have certainly had my hands full, but everybody is so sweet and generous and so much inter- ested that it is pleasure to do it. You see we only come before the public once year to ask for contribution and that is with the Charity Ball."
 DO you not have other donations, though, to keep the work going? There is Miss Forcemans salary that must be paid each month and I can't see how you could defray expenses with what you make from the ball alone," I ob- served.
 "Oh. yes,' said Mrs. Davis, i've have . number of good, knd-hearted citi- Eens who contribute all during the year to our exchequer; sums of s25 up to one interested friend who gives us $loO annual

Hesitation in Early Trad ing Gives Way to Ad-
 vance at Close
DEATH OF KING IS
 WELL DISCOUNTED
Unfavorable Copper Report Has No Effect, Having
 Been Discounted

NEW YORK, May 9.--The stock market went through many variations of speculative temper today and showed feeling of hesitation in it's moods un- til the tirmness of the final advance.
 Business in London had gotten well under way before the opening hour, giv. ing time to demonstrate the feeling of confidence in the ability to resist the de. pression of the kings death. Threats of the London financial market depres sion was partly due to the opinion form, ed over the Sunday interval that some thing like a truce would be adopted in the bitter political contest being waged over legislative questions af fecting the British government. A post ponement involved, it was felt, would do much to bring irregularity to the financial markets.
 Larger importance was attached to the government report on the May con dition of wheat as a factor in spring openings. The first reaction in stocks from the reflected London strength was due to advance fears of poor report Selling by western warehouses on that account wiped out about all the opening gains Quick changes followed actual publication.
 Contrary movements were shown in some prominent individual stocks. St Paul suffered from the withholding of definite officially announcement of the bond sales in Paris, the result being to excuse fear of a hitch in the business Southern Pacific, on the other hand was aggressively strong from the re vival of reports of an extra distribu tion to stockholders of the oil assets of the company.
 The unfavorable copper statistics fol April had been abundantly foreseer and there was disposition to regard them as past influences. Reports of some recent large sales of the metal at the price concessions were of more effect, The strong tone of Amalgamat ed Copper was an influence in the late rallying in the whole market.
 Bonds were irregular. Total sales, $2,, 0e1 ,00O. United States bonds were un. changed.

The reason so many people deplore pres ent day requirements and point back to former conditions is because they are not willing to make the effort required to fit themselves to keep pace with the onward march of progress. According to Mir. Pattengill, education is the only thing that will enable one to live his present life to the best advantage, with the keenest appreciation of all around us, and with the greatest usefulness to himself and others. None of the sweet ness, joy, nor pleasure of olden times is lost in the rush and hurry of the pres ent day. We are just as true, generous, and square. The only difference lies in the fact that we must quicken as the times quicken and grasp every oppor' tunity that will broaden our conception of life and that will tend to happiness.
 He dwelt upon the pleasure to be obtained from the association with books. and in the following humorous illustration showed the importance of an understanding of words. A young lady was being the recipient of numer- ouS prenuptial showers, luncheons, etc, at one of which her iance hid, and her search for him did not reveal his whereabouts. She finally went into the backward where Aunt Dinah was bend ing over the washtub. "Aunt Dinah, said she, "have you seen my atfi- anced?" "What s dat, hOney9' said Aunt Dinah. "Have you seen my af- fianced?" she again asked. "No, chile,n Aunt Dinah responded, CT don t think hit am in de wash dis week.

BIG CROWDS STORM STORE OF LATE
 SAM kEE
Have to Be Forced from the Building When Time to
 Close Arrives

One of the most remarkable selling when the Sam Kee store was opened to the public in an administrator sale for the purpose of disppsing of the stock of goods of the deceased Chinese mer- chant.
 When the store opened at 9 clock there was throng of prospective buy. CTS waiting to gain admittance. From the time the store was opened until closing time at clock last evening, the place was crowded to such an eX- tent that it was only with difficulty that the crowd could be handled.
 When closing time came, the crowd had to be practically forced from the building, so eager were the buyers to secure, their share of the stock of goods
 Owing to the rush of buyers yester. day, the store will not open until g o clock this morning, in order that the clerks may have an hour in which to rearrange, the stock.
 The prices which have been marked on the stock of goods are revelation and account in marked degree for the heavy selling of yesterday Prac- tically every article in the store is marked down well below former selling prices.
 The advertising campaign for this great sale has been conducted entirely through the columns of the Silver Belt, and, as all such sales conducted in this manner, has been remarkable selling event The sale is being conducted by B. F. Crawford, administrator of the Sam Kee, estate, with J, M. McPher- son as sales manager.

Strong Effort to Secure a Change of Venue Fails
 of Success
HEARING WILL BE
 BITTER CONTEST
Fisher Gets Three Years in Pen and Vuscovich Five
 Other Court News

After bitter fight to secure a change of venue to Graham county, J. c. Phil lipson, charged on five counts with em- bezzlement, was yesterday placed on trial in the district court on the same charge upon which he was convicted at the last term of court and in which he was granted a re-trial owing to error in the instructions to the jury which heard that case.
 In court yesterday Attorneys Nave and Mckillip, representing the defen, dant, renewed their application for a change of venue, made several weeks ago. In the affidavit, charges were made that Sheriff Henry Thompson holds personal interest in the case and that he is anxious to see the conviction of the defendant.
 The application was denied and the work of securing jury to hear the case was commenced late yesterday af. ternoon. A full panel of twenty-four jurors was secured, with no apparent difficulty. Today twelve of this panel will be excused by counsel for the de- fense and by the prosecution after which the trial of the ease will be taken up.
 in the Examination of each prospec- tive juror, Attorney F. S. Nave asked direct questions as to whether the ven iremen knew Sheriff Thompson and whether or not they would vote to ac- quit the defendant, should the prosecu. ton fail to prove beyond reasonable doubt his guilt, even though Sheriff Thompson might have an interest in see. ing him convicted.
 The charge upon which Phillipson is now being tried is that of embedding some 1900 shares of stock in an an gora goat company, belonging to Mrs Anna Neal.
 In an indictment returned against Phillipson last week, in which the em- bezzlement of stock from the same par ty is alleged, motion of the defense to quash the indictment was yesterday de- nied, the case being set for trial on next Monday.
 From all appearances the PhillipsOn case will be bitterly contested in court and will probably not be completed be. fore tomorrow night.
