animal came to nabbing his hand The
dog a big black cur estrayed from the

morning. showing all the unmistakable
signs of rabies The neighborhood
was naturally greatly alarmed and
telephoned post haste for OFFICER Plat
to dispose of the animal. After a
chase of a few blocks the dog was
cornered in a barn giving Plat his
first opportunity to dispose of the peril.
AS soon the dog saw the revolver
pointing at him he made lunge for
with his deadly fangs before Plat
could fire. An instant more time or
delay and the enraged beast would
have fastened It's hold on PIatts hand
and the nervy officer is displaying the
tooth marks of the dog on the re-
volver stock to show just how near
he came to being badly bitten and in

MONEY OUTLOOK GOOD

The underlying current of opinion in
the local money market seems to be
that Chicago and Lake county is going
to have much easier money after the
first ten days of this month. This
opinion is based upon the recent divi-
dend and other disbursements. which
by that time should be back In the
banks.
At tn present time there is little or
no change in the situation from what
1t has been for several weeks, nnless
perhaps. 1t be that the outlook into the
future is already having a slight sem
timental effect upon those who have
so ardently contended that there would
not be any relief from the present
tightness of money for many months
to come.
The banks are still striving to re-
build their balances in anticipation Of
the fall crop movement, and as a con-
sequence are making few loans. and
those which they are making are only
for short times. on the most conserva-
tive basis. Spectators are as yet still
out of favor with the banking insti-
tutions. although this type of financier
has recently become more or less in
active
Old-time borrowers are having diff
Guilty when it comes to making re-
new,als on their outstanding obliga-
lions. and this action on the part of
the bankers is causing a certain feel
ing of tightness in some circles. but,
taking the situation as whole, there
really appears to be no need for serious
worry about the conditions which now
prevail or which are likely to prevail
in the early autumn.

MAY BAR MILK
"a HOURS OLD
Especial to THE TIMES.

Washington. d. c.. July As the
result of investigation now in progress
the federal government may require
a radical change in interstate milk
shipments to cities. Experiments have
demonstrated that in most cases it Is
practicable to supply cities with milk
twelve hours fresher than now is Gus
tomary
THE inspector" says a bulletin is
sued today by the department of agri-
culture. reports that dairies take the
morning milk, combine it with the aft
ernoon milk of the same day, and ship
this combination the next morning. AS
a result. the days milk is kept through
the heat of the day, and by the time it
is twenty-four hours old, shows a high
meteorological count
THE inspector made experiments in
taking night milk. keeping 1t through
the cooler hours Of the night COM
bining 1t with the morning milk, and
shipping It. There was radical i'm
provement in the condition Of this milk.
| In this case, the farmer ships the milk
| by train or electric car an hour or two
| later than he did under the old prac-
| tice
THE inspector reports that IL this
new system of combining evening milk
| with the next mornings milk is fol-
lowed, 1t will go far toward solving
the problem of preventing the delivery
of milk that is bacteriologically bad.
This plan is regarded so impor-
! tant that the government will probab-
| 1y summon a number of milk produc-
ers to hearings, in order TO impress on
them the Importance of this method OF
shipping. This method. of course. is
not practiced in all milk sections, as il
4 can be carried out only where train
| schedules permit.

The city council met last night for
their regular monthly session with all
the members present and transacted a
grist OF business. A goodly number of
citizens from South Main street were
present asking for water main and
sewer extension along that thorough
fare. The council has not decided as
yet how much money can be expended
this year for water main extension. II
any and 1t is certain that the first esi-
mated amount of eleven or twelve
thousand will be greatly reduced. The
council members realizes that the peo-
pie are already burdened with taxes
and refuses to bond the city further
and raise the tax levy accordingly to
meet the cost of the Improvement The
matter viii be further considered by
the Finance and Water committees of
he council.
An appropriation ordinance. appro-
prtating $4,000 for the expenses of the
water works plant for the balance of
the fiscal year was passed without a
dissenting vote.
An ordinance to pay from the gen.
eral fund money that has been in
works fund through an error of con-
struction in the tax levy was passed
by the council. The constructive error
is one of seven or eight years duration
and was decently discovered by the
finance committee of the council. When
the tax levies were made out those
framing the measures supposedly
levied sum for the payment of bonds
interest and waterworks expenses and
the auditors distribution of the
amount was used for such purposes.
II now develops that the amount levied
calls only for tn payment Of bonds and
interest and instead of having two
separate funds as was supposed, the
money has been taken from the bond
and intrest fund. The error is purely
constructive and technical but the
state Board of Accounts will be asked
to pas their opinion on the transaction
in order to Alright the finances
An anticipating ordinance was pre-
scented by Councilman Bielefeld and
after being juggled around by the
council was referred on second read
ing to the judiciary committee fol

ordering a sidewalk on the south side
of the Horst property on Parry Cour1
was passed by the council.
The Bear ditch, West street open
ing, and water main extension propo-
sition were again referred to the sew
eral committees in charge for further
consideration.

A DELIGHTFUL TRIP.

Sunday afternoon the editor with
w. B.Grlffith motored to the Thacker
Dairy, two and one-half miles in
the country. We found a very
pretty place for such business,
There are some fifty COWS at the.
Dairy and the finest you ever lock
ed upon and the output in milk AID
butter is quite an item The een-
eral arrangements are~ideaI, both
from a sanitary and convenience
standpoint There is one COW in
the lot that is valued at $4,000 and
mauy others near that price. This
COW is Is months old and gives six
gallons of milk daily. While there
we walked over the fam with W.. B.
Ihacker and saw the acres of corn,
nillet and peas, the sweet potato
and watermelon patches and had
the satisfaction of doing away with
quantity of melon and peaches.
On the lot there are some 400 chick
ems. number of pigs and hogs, a
bountiful supply of cord wood. and
in fact every thing that suggests
good living The heads of the house
hold, Mr.. and Mrs Thacker, and the
two boys" are very cordial and
makes one feel good to be with them.
The thacker's have an ideal eal.ntry
place and it looks like contentment
reigns supreme as it should be on
such spot so close to and blessed

LYNCHER'S AT WORK IN
QUEEN CITY

man Wilson
Charlotte, Aug, 81" That Joe
McNeely, deceased, came to his
death by pistol shot wounds in the
hands of a mob unknown to the
jury" was the verdict given Tues,
day afternoon by the coroner's jury
at the inquest held over the body of
Joe McNeely, who met death at an
early hour that morning, at the
hands of a mob composed of some
thirty five persons.
R1DDLED WITH BULLETS.
The negro was taken from the
colored hospital at Els o'clock Tues
day morning, dragged into street and
his body riddled with bullets. He
lived, however, after being carried
to the police station until 5 clock
The members of the mob wore
masks and none of. them, it is said,
by the officers who were guarding
the negro, could be identified.
At a special session of the board
aldermen yesterday a reward was Of
fered by the city of Charlotte of
$1,000 for each and every member
of the mob.
GRAND JURY URGED TO INDIcT
Superior Court is in. session here
andJudgeShaw from the bench yes
terday morning delivered a caustic
charge to the grand jury instructing
them to Use every means within
their power to ferret out the parties
composing the mob. Solicitor Viii
son has taken charge of the case and
is conducting sweeping investiga-
ton.
SALE OF GUNS STOPPED
A ban has been placed on. the
sale of fire arms and ammunition
to any person. Some talk has
been indulged in by the ne
groes, but it is not believed that
they will attempt any retaliation
A number of special officers are on
duty and it is believed that the
police department has the situatio n
well in hand and that a clash be-
tween the races will be avoided.
The crime for which McNeely for
feited his life was the shooting of
policemen Wilson, on the stress OF
this city last Friday, McNeel!, a.
legged to be drunk on cocaine, was
shooting his pistol on the street and
when the officer appeared on the
scene to arrest him, he shot Wilson
from the motorcycle he was riding
Wilson in turn shot the negro an
this accounts for his being in the
hospital instead of prison. Wilson
is still in precarious condition. but
unless complications set in it is be-
lieved he will recover.
STORY OF THE NEGRo's CRIME.
The victim of the negro McNeely
lynched, Mounted Policeman L.
Wilson, is one of the most popular
men on the police force of Char
lotte. At the hospital it is hopee
he will yet recover. He was sho
from his speeding motorcycle Fri
day afternoon, near South Tryor
street and Park avenue, withou
the least sign of warning. He
crawIed from under the heavy ma
chine which had fallen upon him
and rising to his knee, shot his as
sailant, Joe Nicely, a cocaine-crazet
negro, down upon the street Wher'
