Barnca Glass Meeting.

There was quite an interesting
meeting at the Baptist church on
Wednesday evening 1t was in the
nature OF Baraca rally, the chief
feature being an address by Mr.. A.
3. Saleeby, an enthusiastic Baraca
worker. of Salisbury, N. C. Mr.. Sa-
leeby represents the SALISBURY
Township Baraca Union, comprising
a membership of five hundred, and
none who heard him here could
fail to see that his heart is thor
oughly enlisted in the work.
Notwithstanding the severe wealth
er a goodly crowd assembled and
the speaker was given the closest
attention, as he sketched the ori-
gin and growth of the Baraca move
ment, detailed its objects and
achievements, and closed with a
ringing call to arms.
He briefly and entertainingly re-
lated the story of the conversion
of Mr.. NJ. A. Hudson, the founder of
this great movement which has now
attained worldwide proportions. In
twenty years said the speaker, this
movement whose very name and
symbol means Blessing" started
with a class of five under Mr.. Hud-
son in Syracuse, N. Y, has placed
its motto, Young men at work for
young men, all standing by the BIZ
bic and the Bible school," upon the
walls OF thousands of active Sunday
Schools throughout the United
States and England. and has been
instrumental in the reclaiming of a
legion Of young men: one hundred
and fifty conversions have crowned
the work Of MIR. Hudson in his own
class alone.
Two very important and practical
results Immediately followed the de-
livery of Mr.. Saleeby's address: one
was an invitation to Mr.. Hudson to
visit Dillon and address the local
Baracas and Philatheas and the
other was the suggestion that steps
be taken looking to the organiza-
ton of n local Baraca Union. The
matter of a Union will be taken up
Sunday morning before the Baraca
Classes of the Baptist and Method
ist Sunday Schools, and it is very
likely that an organization will be
formed.

This James A. Farrell has been
so busy with the affairs OF his en-
ployeIs for the last 32 years that
nobody outside the steel business

lie was born in South Norwalk,
Conn, the summer residence of
many famous men in all the lines of
business. He moved to New Haven
when he was five years old-chief-
iy for the reason that his parents
changed their residence to that city.
He may have absorbed some
knowledge fIom Yale university
while there, but if he did he only
got such crumbs of erudition as
were thrown over the walls, for he
never was inside the college as a
student.
At sixteen he decided he had
been loafing long enough, and went
to work in a wire mill 81 worked
with my head and my muscles" he
said. thus giving birth to a motto
that ought to be hung up on every
head OF every youth of the land.
1t took him nine years to learn
all about the wire business that the
New Haven mill had to teach. He
saw Yale students coming and go
Ing. playing football and baseball
and pulling shells on the water
Perhaps he regretted that he was
not one Of them. Most hard work
ing boys do envy those who can af-
ford to make college professors do
their work for them.
But, anyway, he kept on working,
and when there was nothing more
about the wire business in New
Haven for him to find out he put
toothbrush and an extra pair of
oyeralls in his grip and went to
Pittsburg, which is the Athens of
the steel business.
Arriving there he went to work
at his specialty-wire- soon
rose to a boss of mill But a few
blocks away was a big steel mill,
where they turned the raw crude
iron into polite, refined steel. and
young Farrell decided that here
were more things to find out. He
went into that mill rs beginner,
worked a while as a puddler. and
emerged as n superintendent.
A pudder is man who watches
the process of pudding, which con-
sists in uniting the component parts
Of steel, iron, carbon, etc, in big
crucible. Farrell was n good pud-
der
About that time he came under
the kindly eye of Charles NJ. Sch
wab, who was n marvel of efficien-
cy, and one of the most energetic
brain hunters that ever served the
steel corporation.
Schwab took Farrell out Of the
pudding mill and put him in charge
of one of the many companies that
handle the product, and he has been
working for the steel corporation
in responsible executive capacities
ever since.
When Andrew Carnegie made up
his mind to die with not more than
fifty or sixty million dollars, he
took first mortgage on all the Wis
ible steel property in and around
Pittsburg, and allowed other and
more avaricious men to run the
business.
Then the head office of the COM
pany came to New York, and Mr..
Farrell came along. His first care
when he got here was to find him
self a home on the soil which had
given him birth, and to buy boat.
so that he could get into his lungs
the oxygen he needed to keep steam
up in his brain.
Then he took winter house in
Brooklyn, and went to work so

Irregularities of the state drainage

I think the state in itself is wrong
to make the governor member and
official of as many as seventeen
boards, and some as important as
the drainage board. 1t is physical
impossibility for the governor to de-
vote the time to it and it is poor
investment for the state. and does
not give the governor sufficient time
to devote to all these boards. many
