Washington, D. c., March 49,

DEATH OF HON. w. F.. STROUD.
Passed Away Sunday Afternoon at the
Home of His. Son in Chapel Hill
Had Served Two Terms in Con-
gress and Was a Member of State
Constitutional Convention.

Chapel Hill, N. c., March 10
William F. Stroud, one of the Oldest
inhabitants of Chapel Hill, and one
of the most respected citizens of the
community, died Sunday afternoon at
the home of his son in Chapel Hill.
He was seventy-nine years of age and
had been in declining health, having
had three strokes of paralysis during
the past two years. An atatck of
grippe was the immediate cause of
his death.
William F. Stroud was born in Or
ange County December z, 1882, near
Pittsboro. He was educated at Bing-
ham School, High Hill Academy and
Graham Institute. He lived in Chat
ham County practically all of his life
and was a farmer.
In 1875 Mr.. Stroud was elected to
the State Constitutional Convention
and in 1894 was elected to the Ma
tional Congress from the Fourth Dis
trict at the hands of the Populist
Party, defeating Charles M. Cooke
the Democratic nominee by 1900
majority.
1t was during this period that Ma.
rion Butler was in the Senate, both
men being elected at the same time
by the Fusionists. At that time NORTH
Carolina was represented in Congress
by five Populists, three Republicans
and one Democrat, he being w. w
Kitchin, of the Fifth District.
| Mr.. Stroud was highly esteemed
by his acquaintance in both Orange
and Chatham Counties. The fune
raj took place from the home of the
son of the deceased this afternoon
and the burial was at the Chapel Hill
Cemetery.
The popularity of Mr.. Stroud wa.
evidenced by a great number of flora

High Point, N. c.. March 10-This
morning at s o'clock the main build
ing of the Shipman Organ Company S
plant caught fire from a hot box on
drum sander. In a short time the
large three story building was on fire
apparently all over, some of the en-
ployes on the third floor having a
very narrow escape to get out in
safety.
The entire fire department was
quickly present but could do moth
ing more than confine the fire to the
plant.
The entire plant was destroyed in
Guiding a new boiler and engine
room which was just completed few
weeks ago.
A young girl, Stella Carmickle,
was caught on the second floor and
had to jump to save her life. She
jumped into a small tree near the
building and was then caught by her
father and some other men. The in
juries are very slight. The loss can
not be estimated at this time.
The loss is about $4,000 and the
insurance is about $4,000.

STOLE THE REGISTRATION BOOK
Some Wilmington Democrats Again
at Their Old Tricks-Stole Book to
Defeat Election.

A special from Wilmington to yes
terday's News and Observer says:
An election is to be held here to-
morrow to pass upon the adoption of
bill, and this afternoon it was found
that the registration books of the
third ward, having about 700 voters
and in the very heart of the city, had
been misplaced or stolen. The books
were not to be found when the regis
trar went to the Office Of the city clerk
and treasurer, but this fact was not
learned Of until this afternoon, the
impression of some being that it did
not matter, as all desiring to vote
could register on the day of election.
Investigation has failed to disclose
any law allowing this and in the
third ward the books of 1905 will
have to be used and the few who have
registered during the past few days,
less than one hundred. It was gen
orally regarded that the third ward
would give an overwhelming majority
for the bill. The general opinion
prevails that regardless of the loss of
the registration books of the ward in
question that the commission bill will
carry, although there seems to be an
effort on the part of many to en-
deavor to defeat the measure in a
quiet way.
This has been learned by those who
are favoring the bill, and knowing of
this and the strange disappearance of
the registration books, will cause an
unusually hard fight to be put forth
tc give Wilmington the commission
form of wovernment.

Farmers Will Know Who Voted
Against Them.

Referring to the class fight made
against the Torrens system by the
lawyers, the Charlotte Chronicle says
1.-THE Torrens land bill, fathered by
Senator Gotten never at any time
had the ghost of a show. Mr.. Cot
ten could not succeed in getting 1t
before the House, but after many
trials and tribulations, did get it to a
vote in the Senate. Then it was kill
ed by vote of % to IS, as fast as
the clerk could call the roll. Mr. Cot
ten took the precaution to put the
Senators on record, so the farmers
will know who voted against them
Why We said the bill never had a
chance is this: There are SO lawyers
in the Senate against Is laymen
| The vote against the bill was cast BY
Is lawyers and laymen who had
been prevailed Upon to go with them
But the fight will be kept up and the
chances are that the Torrens land
bill will be dealt with little more
respectfully in the next Legislature. -

pressed by numerous people on the

verdict for O higher ofrenss than
raanslaughter would be returned and
after hearing the charge OF Judge
Cook. this opinion became much
stronger. That the verdict caused
surprise Is expressing IL mildly.

a pretty little woman and there is
something about her that Is attrac-
tive, especially when she smiles. She
is a daughter OF ]. ]. z. HARRISON.
a farmer who resides near Loris, s. Q.
She has one brother. ID. ID. HARRISON,
who represented Horny County In the
Legislature and prior to that was
County Superintendent of Education.
Several of Mrs. Hayes brothers are
school teachers and one Ia a tele-
graph operator in Wilmington and is
with the Atlantic Coast Line. 1t is
said that the members OF the family
Of Mrs. Hayes were bitterly opposed
to her marrying Hayes.
Robert NJ. Floyd. who was killed
the 4th of February by Mrs. Hayes,
was the son of Matthew Floyd, a
prosperous farmer of Galivant's Fer
ry, Horny County. He would have
been thirty years of age had he lived
until the 4th of the present month.
Floyd was unusually well known
throughout the upper portion OF
South Carolina, as he was colportuer
of Waccamaw Baptist Association for
some years and travelled over con-
siderable part of the State. Later
he held a position in the bank of
Mount Tabor and then in the bank
at Conway. He was very popular
and seemed to be liked by nearly
every one who knew him.
1t was the prominence of the fam
lilies of the parties concerned, to a
large extent, that has caused the case
to be Of so much interest, and this is
especially true as to South Carolina.

IDENTIFY shot Wakefield Stone, of the
same age, while carelessly handling
a pistol. The boys had been together

ed Robert said, Wakefield, hand me
a dollar Wakefield replied, Get
away from here with that thing"
Peace then fired and the 80 calibre
bullet pierced the groin and lodged
near the hip joint.
Peace gave as his excuse for the
shooting that he did not know the
pistol was loaded. Wakefield at no
time suffered to any great extent and
today he is doing as well as could be
expected.

Build Plant OF Manufacture Fertili.
ger From the Air.

Chester, S. c., March 10.-Work
on the new plant that is to manufac-
ture fertilizer from the air, at Great
Falls, on the Catawba River, in the
lower end of the county, Is progress
ing rapidly and will soon be complet-
ed. At the same time the company
is erecting a number Of houses there
and in a short time there will have
been born another thriving village
down there in region that a few
years ago was a veritable wilderness
of rugged hills covered with scrub
oak and pine.
This plant will be the only one of
its kind in America to make fertilizer
from the air and is owned by the
same people who own the Southern
Power plants and associated devel-
opments. It's success is based on the
fact that the method has been used
in Germany with good results and
there is no doubt but that it means a
still greater development of Chester
County.
