gowns that have caused so many
shocked women to unite in protest:
Il heard story about one of these
gowns. A headstrong girl had pur-
chased 1t in the Rue de la Paix with
out her mothers knowledge, and she
insisted On wearing it, the evening it
came home, at Armenonville for din
ner and at the opera afterwards for
the Russia ballet. Her mother, how

headstrong way, declared:
"'I'll wear that gown or nothing
with a shrug and faint smile,
her mother answered:
Well, it comes to about the same
thing"

ctaEF WALLACE AND FOREMAN
GLENN, uNAWAREs ARE
STRUCK DOWN AT BLAZE
THREE OTHERS ARE INJURED
First Fatalities in History Of Charlotte
Fire Department Occurred in Ex-
plosion at Small Fire.

Charlotte.-Chief ]. III. Wallace OF
the city fire department and Capt. w.
B. Glenn Of the No. 2 station were
killed about o'clock in the morning
and three other fremen, Messrs. R. T.
Barnes, J. r. Erwin and C.. w. Todd
were more or less seriously injured as
the result of the explosion Of a guam
tity Of blasting powder that had been
stored in barn belonging to Mr.. John
B. Hawkins, a railroad contractor, in
the rear Of his home on South Cedar
street
The barn had caught fire. and the
department had been summoned to
extinguish the flames. Never having
been appraised Of the presence of the
explosives and fearing no danger,
Chief Wallace, Captain Glenn and
Firemen Barnes, Erwin, Todd and
several others had just laid line OF
hose and had rushed through dou-
BILE fence for the purpose of reaching
the seat OF fire. The hose was not
quite long enough and Chief Wallace
had called for little Slack Sew
eral of the men turned to drag up
the line and this accounts for their
escape The next moment the explo-
sion occurred. Captain Glenn was
killed instantaneously and Chief Wal
lace was felled in his tracks and so
also Firemen Barnes, Erwin and
Todd.
In addition to those seriously in
jured, quite number received slight
flesh wounds. Mr.. Sam McGinn, who
was assisting the fremen, was struck
by a flying piece of wood and the
side Of his face lacerated. Mr.. w. III.
Roberts of 313 South Cedar street was
stunned and Mr.. w. II. Earnhardt, a
clerk in J. H. Pressly's store, 800
South Cedar street, was struck on the
forehead by a splinter. Several OF
the firemen were unable to do any.
thing for moment after the explo.
sion.
The funeral of the two men took
place at the Second Presbyterian
church at o'clock next day It was
a fremen's double funeral and Rev
DR.. A. A. MeGeachy had charge OF
the service. The body of the dead
chief was placed upon the new motor
fire truck at his home, 208 North Bre
ward street and borne to East Trade
street where it was joined by Motor
Truck No. with the body of Captain
Glenn on II.
The procession then moved slowly
up Trade street to Independence
Square and on to the Second church
where the principal service was held.
Immediately behind the two caskets
followed the horse and buggy that
Chief Wallace drove. 1t was led by
one of the men and draped in black.
The motor trucks were also draped.
While the funeral was in progress the
fire bell tolled. The interment was at
Elmwood cemetery.
The largest crowd attended the flu.
neral of any in Charlotte's history, and
had the weather been favorable larger
crowds would have attended.

Farmers, Union Meets Nov. 1920.

: Raleigh.-With Greenville, Rocky
Mount and Durham offering special
inducements, it was impossible for
the council of the North Carolina
Farmers Union to definitely settle
the place for the annual convention.
This matter will be settled within a
few years. November 18 to 20 was
chosen as the time for the conven-
ton and it can be stated authorita-
lively that the contest for the place
lies most probably between Rocky
Mount and Greenville. The council
9dopted resolutions setting out that
the union, as an organization, es-
chews politics but urges members to
strive within. their respective parties
for those progressive measures best
calculated to advance the interests
Of the farmers Of the state.
