HEAT CAUSES DEATH INCREASE.
Figures show I2l More Died Last
Week Than In 1919 Period.


The great heat last week caused an in
crease Of l2l deaths OF - per cent.
over the figures for the corresponding
week last year. The tables for the
past week show 1890 deaths, with a
percentage OF 1880. The average tenn
perature during that time was ap-
proximateiy s degrees higher than for
the similar interval in 1912. In con-
sequence there was an increased number
Of deaths from sunstroke.
Deaths which may indirectly be at
tributed TO the warm weather. and which
rose in number were those due to falls
from fire escapes and windows and ac-
cidental drownings, Heart diseases
showed an additional toll Of 35 cases.
although this is somewhat Offset by the
reduction in the number OF deaths re-
ported from Bright's disease and ne

and gagged at 10 o'clock last evening In a
furnished room on the second floor OF ass
West Fifty-seventh street. His head and

no doubt that ne had been murdered, His
pockets were rihed. There was nothing
OF value In them when his body was
found
The body was Identified by a Mrs Bar
rett OF 366 West Fifty-eishth street. who
only a few minutes before had gone to
Patroiman Rideil at Columbus avenue and
Fffty-eighth street and asked him how
she might get trace Of q friend who had
disappeared on Monday. From informa-
tion which the police gathered 1t seems
evident that Marten was murdered be-
tween 6 and q o'clock on Monday evening.
After Coroner Winterbottom had seen
the body early to-day he announced that
the man had been biackjacked and had
been dead from twenty y-four to thirty
hours
While the police had no definite clue A.
to the murderer or murderers they
started out to search for Mr.. and Mrs.
johnson. who occupied the room where
the man was found until Monday eve.
ming. having been there more than .
week. They also went hunting for q
man who was referred to by the couple
rs a brother Of Mrs. johnson.

DISASTROUS FIRE THIS
MORNING
Main Plant Of High Point Furniture
Company Completely Destroyed By
Fire---Ofigin Unknown---Third
Time in Past 20 Years Fire
Has WrOnght Havoc There

This morning at 4 o'clock the
main building of the High Point
Furniture Company, containing most
of the machinery and furniture in
process of manufacture, caught fire
and within one hour was total
loss. Much lumber and other prop
erty close by was also destroyed.
The origin of the fire is unknown.
The firemen gave most of their at
tention to the other buildings of the
company, as it was seen that it was
impossible to save the main build
ing so rapidly did it burn, being a
frame structure and filled with dry
lumber. They could only subdue
the flames to a certain extent to
keep the intense heat from doing
other damage.
The luss is quite heavy as light
insurance was carried owing to the
high rate on wooden structures of
this kind. The plant is owned by
Mr.. NJ. j. Wrenn and is capitalized
at S150,000. The finishing rooms
are of brick and escaped as well as
much lumber. The company can
be ready to resume operations with
in a short time.

A MURDER MYSTERY
Male Infant Found Dead in City
Wrapped ia Black Sklrt---Killed
By Some HeartlesS Wretch

Sunday afternoon two boys Out
walking near the septic tank in the
southern part of the city made a
curious find, the body of an infant
boy, cold IN DEATH. The officers be-
ing notified they were soon on the
sce.1e ana the body was brought to
the undertaking esta blishment of J
w. Sechrest where an autopsy was
performed by DR.. j. T. Burrus to de-
termine if the child had life IN it
when born which was found to be
true.
The boy was we'll developed, in
fact ali unusually fine child and was
born sometime that day or the night
before. Indications point to the
fact that a physician attended the
birth of the child but where did the
child come from is the question.
Was it born in High Point or was it
hurriedly brought here from another
town and disposed Of? 1t is a my
.stery! 1t is probable that the party
who carried the body to where it
was found intended to throw it into
the man hole, near the septic tank
but became frightened from hearing
a noise,~ or seeing some one. Was
the child murdered to hide a shame
or was it of Legitimate birth and the
victim of cruel parents? Perhaps
was torn from the breast of loving
mother but hardly likely or the
mother-love would manifest itself
without shame and disgrace holds
her aloof for the present. Anyway
it is a mystery-it is horrible affair
that should be unraveIed if it
takes a Sherlock Holmes. 1t really
looks like High Point has its variety
of IaWless incidents these days-the
robber, the murderer, the anarch-
lst, etc.

MAYOR TATE ADDS HIS EN-
DORSEMENT
To The Suggestion to Make High
Point the Violet City

To The Suggestion to Make High
Point the Violet City
Mr.. Editor:
wish to add my hearty endorse
ment to~the very timely suggestion
OF cur townsman, Mr. E. A. Snow
with regard to beautifying our city
by planting violets along all of its
principal streets. In my opinion,
nothing more beautiful could be
planned and at an expense SO in
significant that it would work a
hardship on no person.
If we ever expect TO have city
beautiful, we must realize the ne
cessity for cooperation along all lines
of ciyic pride and endeayor. In just
a few years we may, by the proper
effort, bring to pass such beautiful
transformation that High Point will
be known not only in name, but in
fact, as the Violet City.
Let Mr.. Snow lead in this worthy
undertaking and then let all fall in,
without exception; and with one aim
and one purpose carry on the work
to completion.
Let us do another thing at tn:
same time, and that is to instil into
The minds and hearts of those who
are thoughtless, or without proper
pride or respect. that it is crime
to despoil or injure the flower beds
the hedges or the shade trees OF the
city, and that is an e. idence of poor
citizenship to .wilfulIy neglect oul
front yards or premises by Permit
ting weeds and filth to accumulate
Let us teach the boys and girls
lesson of thrift and tidiness. 1t viii
bring, them profit in dollars some
day and it will add to our content
ment and enjoyment wonderfully.
The Violet City, may her fame
soon be known throughout the land
Respectfully,
FRED N. TATE, Mayor.
